Opsahl to the Minn. State Tax Commission take time to investigate improvements on public highways, schools and villages in the Minnesota. iron districts, will openly admit that the mining companies have been more liberal in matters of, taxation towards making a first class, high grade, local public improvements than any other mad- ufacturing of farming industries in other parts of the state, so that the argument that the mining companies are tax dodgers to a larger extent than the average human tax payer of Minnesota, will hardly held geod. As a remedy towards a modified taxation method, that would also encourage develop- ment, first, [ would suggest that restriction be placed upon extreme-extravaganece by local com- munities, as well as counties, and that iron ere which cannot be mined within ten, twenty or forty years should not be assessed more arbitrarily than potatoes, clover or grain which statistics may prove to be in the ground, but cannot be raised until the annual crop season comes from ten to forty years hence. Second, that an output tax should be fairly and equally placed upon all mining. products in th state, no matter where located, whether that be iron or other valuable minerals, gravels, stone quarries or clay beds, as each ton, cubic yard or other commercial unit was taken out, th owner should settle with the community on an cutput basis and the tax or royalty so collected each year, should be placed in a state trust fund, with restrictions that the interest only could be spent, and that the royalty from such properties which are being removed. from the ground, and will never come back, should, as far as possible, be invested by the state in farm mortgages on long time, in the local community, at not to exceed five per cent interest, or in other words that the mining products taken away should help to dvelop the farm property that would remain as a main-stay for the local community when the mimes would be worked out and gone, and' that the interest income:eacl year from such mortgages should be distributed by the state in the same ratio and proportion as other taxes, the bulk going to the local community where the mines or quarries were located, and part to the local county, and it's proportionate share under genéral (Continved from Page Two) taxation methods to the state at large. In this way the local communities, the counties as well as the state would have an' insur- ance fund laid by from the prosperous mining days with which to pay the running expenses the community where unproduetive fands would be created by such mining operations. I would suggest for argument sake, that the output tax on iron ore be placed upon the percentage of iron. units in each ton,.on:in otlier words 40 per cent, or £ cents per ton, 50 per cent or 5 cents- per- ton,. 55 per cent or 5 1-2: cents per ton and 63 per cent or 6 1-2 cents per ton, and I feel satisfied to say that the mine operators as- well as the fee owners of iron properties are perfectly willing to meet the farm factory operators as: well as other manufacturers in working out a new taxation method under your supervision, that will be equally just and fair to all industries alike in our great state of Minnesota.
