PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
A. E. GUSTAFsON. County supt.

More than 100 of our rural teach
ers attended our December series of
group meetings.
Seven rural schools in the Pine
City territory are helping to put on
the annual community Christmas
program, sponsored by the Pine City
Commercial club, at the armory
Thursday afternoon, Dec %, at two
o'clock.
Net Income Tax Aid.
The net income tax aids paid to
Pine county school districts on the
basis of census lists are as follows:
1888 to December 81, 1886, $82, los. go
and 1887 to December l, 1887, $780,
$4,000, making a total of $114, 7O3 60.
The 1887 balance yet to be paid is
So ,622 90 making total to Pine coun-
ty of $117,325.60
During the same period Pine county
net income taxes paid to the state
amounted to total of $3,311.8O which
is only three per cent of the amount
received from the state. Thus, for
every dollar Pine. county pays into
this school aid fund we receive 500
in return.
Net income taxes, and the use of
the same to help run the schools,
is thus very excellent combination
of laws for Pine county. Too much
praise cannot be given to those pio-
neer leaders in Minnesota who have
struggled for taxes based on the abil-
ity to pay and for the distribution
of these funds so as to help replace
or lower our property taxes. HAL
mar Petersen, the late Governor
Floyd B. Olson and other leaders put
through the first Minnesota net in
come tax law in 1888, to thus aid
the schools. Since then others, in
Guiding our present governor, sue
ceeded in making the net income tax
laws still better. In the 1887 spe-
cial session, it was possible to in
crease the net income tax aids to
schools by including more age groups
on the census lists, as well as in
creasing the amount to $40 per child.
Efforts, however, in 1887 to use other
portions of the net income tax re-
turns to pay all state school aids in

Would Tie Up Traffic,
Northeast Group Says.

On the suggestion of A. F. e. Scheer.
president, the Joint Conference OF
Northeast Citizens Associations last
night unanimously opposed the con-
templated New York avenue, Virginia
avenue, and Twenty-f1rst street site
for the new War Department building.
Scheer declared that in view Of the
work now under way to relieve trafhc
congestion in the area, erection OF an
other large Government building there
would be utterly foolish. The group
offered no definite alternative site,
their belief being that any location
farther from the crowded section
would be preferable.
Also on Scheer's suggestion the
council approved q measure which
would require street cars serving the
area to stop at alternate loading plat
forms in the northeast, each car
carrying a sign showing at which
platforms it would stop. The measure
included advocation of a law forbid
ding street car passengers to stand
on either the front or back platforms.
