Moscatelli Tells Council of
Discussions at State
Tax Conference.

A contract for garbage cans was let
and second carnival permit approved
by the city council Tuesday evening
in session lasting only an hour and
a half
Successful bidder on the garbage cans
was Fenske Hardware & Furniture Co.
whose bid of $239.26 for 324 cans was
the lowest submitted by four firms
Other bidders were Laing Hardware
Ely Hardware & Furniture company
and Mantel Hardware & Furniture
company.
Croatian lodge No. 355 was given a
permit to hold a carnival. with Alder
man Toimi Ahola opposing the action
| There is ain understanding among
members of the council, The Miner has
been informed, that a no-carnival
ordinance, now being prepared by
] Peter Moscatelli, city attorney, will be
passed. 1t will prohibit the holding of
shows in the city after this year.
Twenty-one on-sale and 10 off-sale
80 licenses were approved.
Moscatelli gave a report on ses-
sion of the Minnesota Tax Conferers3.
which he had attended in ST. Paul
Both the mining companies and the
range taxing bodies side of the tax
alton problem were presented at the
session.
Highlights of the report, in which
Moscateli quoted the men listed be-
low, follow:
Rollin Johnson, chairman of the house
committee on taxes and tax-laws -
Taxation is such that reserve funds
of the mining companies will be spent
in other states rather than in develop
ing low grade ores in Minnesota.
We should be more concerned in
maintaining a thriving industry than
in merely taxation revenue.
Per capita tax reductions do not
generally save money to the COM
panies as levies can be increased for
Indebtedness.
Carl HI. Schuster, Biwabik, member
of the iron ore interim committee
There is practically no dispute as to
the quantity of iron ore on the ranges.
Tonnage already shipped is 1,148,-
100000. There are 1,230,000,O00 tons
left.
The state tax commission gets its
information on the amount of ore
from the school of mines personnel.
(Moscateli informed the council that
inquiries by him as to where the
school of mines gets its information
revealed that it repeatedly came from
the mining companies)
Distribution of the tax dollar is
now from IS to As per cent to the
state. (Schuster added that it was the
height of se1fshness for the state to
seek more.)
Violet Johnson, member of the
state income tax department-Taxes
on ore are 1.34 cents per ton.
Payrolls are not increased by the
reduction of taxes, as production de-
ponds upon demand.
Minnesota is promoting the use OF
low grade ores by proportionately less
taxes upon this type ore.
Ore prices are not set upon the
open market. The price is controlled
Last year the demand increased sharp
ly, yet the price went down.
william Montague, mining company
counsel-The Lake Erie price of ore is
catalogue price; that is, it is the
highest price the companies think they
can get, but may not get it.
Steel is selling today 10 per cen.
under the 1887 level.
In 1899 real estate taxes paid by
the companies were $17,0O00,O00, but
| they could only deduct 100000.

On this fourth of July, the one hun

our American way of life really means
The Declaration of Independence was
much more than proclamation emanci-

mother country. It was the first state

and long range program by which and
