Minneapolis & Omaha, the st. Paul IL Du-
luth, the Minneapolis & st. Louis and the

way companies for charging $3.50 per ton
for hauling hard coal from Duluth to New

be ample.
Towns to the east and west of New Um,
on the line of the Chicago & Northwestern
get the same coal at a lower freight rate
than New Ulm, and the people of the latter
city do not understand why such a discrim-
ination Is made against them.

ing to BE the Short Line.
The Northern Pacific has announced a new
freight tariff from st. Paul and Duluth to
Walker, Mimi. The rates are slightly less
than those of the Great Northern to the same
points and are made on account of the OPEN
ing of the Fosston branch OF the Grsat North-
ern, which threatens to interfere with the
business Of the Northern Pacific in that sec
ton.
The new tariff is as follows: First class,
65 cents; second class. 55 cents; third class,
43 cents; fourth class. 81 cents; fifth class
81 cents; class A, 25 cents; class B, % cents;

order to get into the game.
w. r. Caswell was around to play
with the fats, but on account of several
errors made the night before in prac-
tice game Mayor Philbrick and Name
ger Tyson benched the rotund coal
dealer, and the benching was the
cause of the defeat of that side. In
the first inning the Fats got two scores
after Philbrick had cut the air. The
Leans secured none. In the second
the fats added two more, and the Leans
nailed pair of them. In the third
the Fats secured none and the Leans
one. In the fourth, after Philbrick
was was found to be in hiding behind
the grand stand, the Fats secured an
other and the Leans three, making the
game stand 6 to 5 in favor of the leans.
Ia the fifth inning the Fats tied the
score, and it was necessary to play a
sixth inning, when great welding of
the willow by the Leans, gave them
the game, they getting two scores.
The Fats insisted on playing the re-
mainder of the ninth innings, but the
Leans were gathered off the field and
carted to their respective homes in
triumph.
Philbrick, Parkhill, Fish, Murray,

NEW POSSESSIONS.
How They will Add to Our
Wealth.

To THE ED1roR:-Iu the early spring,
in q letter to The GAZETTE on Alaska,
I spoke of the influence of Kuro Siro
or Japan stream, that mid-ocean river
of warm water that has its beginning
in the East Indies and flows north
easterly to the coast of Washington
and British Columbia and finally turn
ing the Alaska Peninsula is lost in
Behring Sea.
At that time the Japan current had
no significance to us except in it's ef-
feet in tempering the friRid shores of
southern Alaska and causing an alb
normally heavy rainfall. "
The last three months have brought
many changes, and among others l
note that Uncle Sam now has interests
at both ends of the line of the great
Pacific gulf stream. Having noted
where this warm current is spent let
us take look at it's source in the re-
gion of the PHILIPPINE, the land of the
monsoon, typhoon and earthquake.
Five hundred miles southeast of
Southern China we meet the north end
of the island of Luzon, in latitude: l9
north from whence the group extends
to the south nine hundred miles to
Latuni, the most southern island oil

north.
The PHILIPPINES comprise from SOC

In the auditors Office the revenue
tax during the year will probably
amount to between $500 and $500, all
county, school and township orders
requiring stamp. In the treasurer's
office the revenue will be less.
The revenue at the two banks will
probably amount to about 81, 900 per
year, making q total of nearly $1,000

how small a portion of the United
States this city is, he will have some
idea of what the internal revenue will
amount to, by reason Of the war tax.
It comes easy, and the people will not
feel the effects of it. The war will
probably be terminated in short
time, and it is safe to assume that the
tax will not be imposed any longer
than one year.

THE WAR TAX.
How the County Officers and
Banks Make Revenue.

A good illustration of the money
that the government will derive from
the internal revenue war tax can be
seen by tour of the different Offices
in the court house, and the two banks
of this city, and then stopping for a
moment to consider what small por
ton of the total amount that the gov
eminent will receive from all over the
United States, this must be- It is in
finitesimal, to say the least, but the
total, basing everything pro rata on
the Redwood Falls receipts, including
the county receipts at the court house,
will more than pay the expenses of
the present war, in which Spain is
getting the tar and everything else
knocked out of her.
An assignment filed at the clerk of
courts office led The GAZETTE reporter
to make the inquiry. The assignee
could secure nothing but one cent. in
ternal revenue stamps, and he was
obliged to plaster so OF these one
centers on each of the three documents
filed, making total of $l.5O, on the
one act of assignment alone.
"Gee Whizz," remarked Clerk War
ner, when he looked at the papers,
>'but that law is going to raise the
dickens with people that have business
to do in this Office. Everything but
marriage licenses are taxed, and it is
safe to say that the government will
receive between $500 and $500 per
year as the result of tax on deeds fled
in this Office alone. Abstracts, certifi-
Gates and every other old thing in that
aine will have to be stamped all the
way from ten cents up. The larger
the amount the more the tax, and l
wouldn't be surprised but what the
amount will go over the latter figure.
Over in the register of deeds Office
Mn Cobleigh had just received the
first warranty deed for record, bearing
a government stamp. 1t was the deed
9given by Trangott Hansel to August
Farber, to the west half of the north
west quarter of section 26, Springdale,
the consideration being $500. The
tax on deeds is so cents for each $500,
and the result was that this deed had
stamps amounting to $l5O on the
same. Mr.. Cobleigh pulled out his
record of deeds for the year closed
and learned that the warranties filed
during that year amounted to about
700 alone, on which the tax would
have averaged at least so cents each,
or $3.50. Other instruments filed, if
taxed, would have sent the total up to
about 300, and this is good criterion
for the ensuing year
Over in the auditors Office deed
had been left for certificates. The
deed carried two other documents
with it, and the tax required on each
was $3.50, or total tax of $3.50 on
the conveyance. Deputy Auditor Nc
Kay and Treasurer Lankard we're
both in doubt as to whether it would
be necessary to place ten-cent stamp
oppocito RI oooh ono Of fhoir oorfifi
Gates that the taxes had been paid,
making 20 cents additional, in case the
stamps we're necessary, and County
Attorney Clague held that it would be.
But there is some doubt as to whether
the law intended to tax the main
deed and the certificates on the same
too, and the officers were inclined not
