JUNE AppORTIONMENT.
How the Money You Paid to the
County Is Distributed.

The June apportionment of taxes of
Redwood county has been completed
by Auditor Anderson, and statement
of the various amounts set aside for
the various funds, has been forwarded
to the State auditor. The amount
paid into the county treasury up to
June LIST, is not as large as during the
same time last year, and this is but a
criterion of the hard times prevalent
here as we'll as elsewhere. The total
collections we're $54, 1922, of which
the State revenue fund receives S.
769 81; the State school fund, -, 952.-
u; the county revenue, Sc, 1896. 81; the
road and bridge, 81, 1924 the county
bond interest, $1,935.79; the county
poor,$l, 57O.23; the court house, 1888.
In the city of Redwood Falls $286.93
was collected for sewerage; 1862 for
water bond interest; $263.89 for water
works assessment; $1O5.47 for stone
crossings; 81 for opening streets $685.
20 was received from penalties, interest
and costs by the county. The various
towns have already received notice of
the amounts to the credit of their
town revenue and road and bridge
funds now in the hands Of the county
treasurer, subject to draft. It is
pleasing to note that the towns of
Brookville, Charleston, Kintire, Lam
berton, Morgan, Paxton, Sherman,
Shutdown, Springdale, Three Lakes
and Waterbury have taxed themselves
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1894-06-28

very heavy for road and bridge pur-
poses, and it commences to look as
though our town roads will be in adj
vance of the county in short time.
The amounts set apart to each town
are as follows:
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1894-06-28

The sum of $21, SIZES is divided
among the various school districts of
the county, and the district treasurers
can obtain the apportionment of their
district at any time. Dist. No. is
the independent district of Redwood
Falls, and of course, has the largest
share of the apportionment. 1t is as
fo11oxre.

nine mll0S ITOm Inc clCy,Wn0Io the III
ternoon was pleasantly spent visiting
the ocean wanderers with their strange
cargoes, and chatting with the sailors,
who have visited every country and
entertain you with their quaint stories
of sea life. At 8 o'clock we boarded
the ship Tarpon for Mobile and
steamed out of the beautiful bay in
the moon light. Upon awakening in
the morning very soon found we had
left the quiet bay and we're tossing up
on the Gulf of Mexico with no sight
of land on any side. Twas then I first
sea sickness and spent
the long Sunday in my birth, wishing
for something to hold on to that did
not move and toss. The G fol-
lowing day I crawled to the table and
ate my first meal since coming on
board. The Captain said it was the
toughest passage in months. The lat
ter part of the second day I found my
"sea legs" as the sailors call it and
enjoyed sitting on deck watching the
porpoises playing about the ship,
keeping ahead of us for miles. Toward
night fall some sea gulls passed over
the vessel and we knew land was not
far off. Soon a mist could be seen
away off in the north and we crowded
to the bow to catch the first sight of
land. Soon we left the blue waters
of the gulf and passed into beautiful
Mobile Bay, thirty-five milessin length.
A light house was passed. Then the
old fort erected by the government
with it's guns pointed defantly toward
us. Then came a number of large
government dredge boats, which work
day and night to keep the channel
clear. Soon the home of the health
officer comes in sight and we drop an
Choir while he comes on board to ex-
anime the passengers and crew. He
goes down the long list of names ask
ing where we have been and we COM
mence to breathe more easily. A thir-
ty days quarantine is a serious mat
ter. He finally comes to a gentleman
from Sunny Italy, Have you been to
Havana?" he asks in laundering tones;
ayes, sir" says the Italian. The Purs-
er turns pale. "How long ago." says
the doctor; "Six years." We all broke
into hearty laugh, the old doctor
joining, and we were allowed to go on
our way rejoicing. The wharf was
black with darkies who swarmed
around us anxious to earn dime by
carrying a satchel. Mobile is the
principal city and only seaport of Ala
bama. It is built with broad shaded
streets. A street car ride through the
residence portion of the city was
greatly enjoyed, but the chief point of
interest was the large wharves with
ships from the West Indies, with their
cargoes of bananas. It was indeed q
busy scene. A huge vessel was being
unloaded and the train was backed
down on the wharf, where in few
hours it was filed and speeding north
ward faster than the regular passeng-
or trains. During the season about
$4,000 cocoanuts are landed at this
pbrt. The Mexican steamers bring
hemp, coffee, sarsaparilla, dye-wood,
etc. The South American steamers
bring coffee, bananas and other trop-
ical fruits. Mobile has bright fu-
ture before her and one realizes as he
wanders from wharf to wharf that the
New South is awakening to her oppor-
tunities in developing her natural re-
sources. @. &C

Christiaaeted, St. Creig,
Saturday, 22nd December 1894.

As there is no issue Of the AUis between
tins and Christmas Day, we are obliged to
take this early opportunity of wishing our
readers the usual compliments of the season.
Looking back on OR islands history since
Christmas vas last with us, we may find
cause enough for thankfulness and rejoicing.
Leaving out the epidemic of whooping
cough, fatal, we are sorry to say, to some
of the little ones, the island has enjoyed
its usual healfhiness throughout the year.
No otker great calamities lave befallsn US;
two hurricanes not far from us have passed
US by leaving us unframed, and if the
skies have given us through the great
or part Of the year less rain than we
desired. there has been during the past
few weeks a most unusual and unlocked for
compensation in the fine showers which
hav, fallen in Every part Of the island, re.
viving the hopes and gladdening the hearts
OF all.
We are glad to know that at the APP
preaching happy Christmas season the poor
are not to he overlooked. Let US not forget
thQC the Lord and Master whose birth we are
to celebrate has taught US, that while the
first great command is to love God, the
second is like unte. st; the second, which com
mands us to love our neighbours as ourselves,
