The Minnesota Fair Tax association was organizedfor the purpose of defending the people of ‘Minnesota against the disaster certain to follow the enactment of a tonnage tax law. This movement originated with the people of Northern Minnesota, and it is being conducted by them. No mining company has had any- thing whatever to do with it. The people of Northern Minnesota feel that the mining. companies, in never fighting the tonnage tax except at sessions of the legislature, are pursuing a wrong policy. They feel that all the facts in connection with a tonnage tax should be found out and that these facts should be laid before the people of the whole state. So t{:ey organized the Minnesota Fair Tax association to do these very things. : During the past few months all possible information on the tonnage tax and on mining of iron ore has been accumulated by the Minnesota Fair Tax association and the association is now about to go into all parts ?f the state and- offer proof to the people of the state of the following acts: i 1. No state levies a tonnage tax. 2. Every state that has had a 10.

We ask the earnest consideration by the people of Minnesota of these facts and the proof of them that we shall offer through the press, by public speakers, and in other ways during the next.few months.. If out statements are wrong, they can be proved wrong; lf..they are right, they are of the most serious concern to everybody in Minnesota. Minnesota Fair Tax Association EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE .
