All the Faces.
E. M. HAAS SENT THE NEWS

/ Just as the sun set in the syest yes
terday, gladstone news fioated over
the telephone wires between the CAPT

dianapolis end of the wire was E. NJ.
Hass, at the local end was Chief
Bailey, who listened to what the min

an 1Sk. grin. Mr.. Haas was stating
that the bin repeating the Metropoli-
tan police law, on which measure the
house sustained the governors veto
Thursday, had not been called up Fri
day and that it was cinched to remain
on the table After handing out
this information, Mr.. Haas stated that
the senate by vote of % to ID had
defeated the bill repeating the towns
and cities law.
After imbibing this intoxicating
news, Chief Bailey spread the glad
some gossip to every nook and corner
of the city building. and the echo of
the discordant revelry reached the
ears of a hungry news collector. He

BIG ABERCROMBIE FIRM FAILS.
Farmers and Merchants Store is
Bankrupted.

Wahpeton, N. Done of the worst
business failures in the history of the
county is that of the Farmers & Mer-
chants Exchange company, of Aber-
crombie. A petition for involuntary
bankruptcy has been filed against the
company by Wyman, Partridge & Co.
and the North Star Boot & Shoe COM
pany of Minneapolis. The assets of
the company are inventoried at $751;
900, but this, it is said on reliable
authority, will shrink at least so per
cent. The known liabilities are about
$45, 900. A. K. Tweton is president OF
the company, which has a paid in
capital of something over $40, 200. Oh
this amount Tweton has until three
months ago held over so per cent.
There are thirty three stockholders
all told, most of them being farmers
living near Abercrombie, but most O.
whom own but small amounts of the
stock.-Minneapolis Journal.

that would avoid the necessity for its
being sold at loss and an enlarged
demand for potatoes, etc., the farmers
could raise without fear of a glutted
market annual crops of these products
very much larger than even the rec
ord crops of former years.
Potatoes Yield Alcohol.
ST am advised by the department OF
agriculture that they have recently
imported samples of potatoes grown
in Europe which have been found to
give high percentage of alcohol and
that there are varieties grown in this
country which show large starch
content. There is no reason why in
many sections of this country the cul-
tivation of these special kinds of po-
tatoes for use in the production of al
cohol should not be found profitable
by our farmers. A fact of more than
usual Importance in this connection is
that the growth of these products
does not exhaust the soil, and that af.
ter the alcohol has been extracted
these materials are still serviceable as
cattle feed.
Gin my opinion the most practicable
way in which alcohol can be profitably
produced by the farmers, for the pres
ent at least, is thru the establishment
of cooperative plants by number of
farmers in suitable localities. believe
that if such plants can be utilized in
ferior and rejected grain and at GER
tain seasons starch yielding vegetables
so as to supply the local demand for
denatured alcohol for lighting, heating
and motor fuel purposes.
"Some disappointment has been ex-
o. essed over the delay on the part of
the manufacturers to furnish alcohol
burning lamps, stoves, heaters and
other apparatus similar to that used in
Germany. I have personally investi-
gated this matter and find that Amer
lean manufacturers are preparing to
put on the market in the near future
lamps in which it has been found by
careful experiment that one gallon of
alcohol will give as much light as two
gallons of kerosene. I have also seen
samples of cookstoves, heaters and
other alcohol-using appliances, which
will be on sale in this country at an
early date"
Morris tribune., 1907-03-30
REGISTRY TAX BILL
HAS ENEMIES
FOREIGN INSURANCE COMPANIES
AND BANKERS OPPOSE 1T.
New York Law Has Been a Great
Revenue Producer and Same Plan
is Likely to be Followed Here, in
Place of an Annual Tax Which
Would be a Burden on the Bor-
rover.

The bill for taxation of real estate
mortgages is being fought in the leg
islature by two influences. The foreign
insurance companies, which invest
heavily in Minnesota mortgages with
out paying any taxes, are using their
influence against the bill and good
many of the country bankers are writ
ing in to oppose it. Their main reason
is that law taxing mortgages when
registered and making it impossible to
evade the tax, will result in farmers
loaning money to each other and cut
ting the banks out.
Not all the bankers feel this way
about it. Some are disposed to thiuk
that it will stimulate business and
bring the banks returns in other ways.
The advocates of an annual tax on
the mortgages are about ready to ad-
NIT that the registry tax imposed once
and exempting the mortgage there
after, is the most feasible and the best
revenue producer. The New York tax
commission has been appealed to for
figures, as New York tried both meth
DDS. The reply shows that in the first
six months of the annual tax law the
receipts we're $514,0O0. Under the first
six months of the registry tax the state
received 50, $3.50 from that source.
1t is also plain that the mortgages
which are reached and which pay the
annual tax, will result in the borrower
paying the tax in the form of a higher
interest rate.
The Ada Index has figured out the
total real estate mortgages filed in
Norman county last year, which was
81 ,0O3, 1855. The tax of one-half of
one per cent would have brought in
$5,O16.34 Or one-ifth of the tax levy
for county purposes. "It seems to us"
says the Index, ''that this bill is good
one and should pass the legislature, Or
in its place something similar"
In spite of the opposition referred
to, it seems certain that the registry
tax bill in some form is going to be
adopted.
