BORROWING TROUBLE.

July l three-cent passenger rates
are to go into effect in Minnesota.
The return to the three-cent rate
is made in spite of the fact that the
railroads admit they have lost moth
ing on the two-cent rate.
Their attack on the law and the
railroad and warehouse commission
was made to beat the freight tariff.
They won and now they are chasing
their victory into the passenger
business.
In doing this they are merely bor-
rowing trouble.
The feeling of bitterness against
the transportation companies was

MIX WEDDING AND AUCTION
Neighboring Editor Furnishes Wierd
Account Of Marriage

An editor in a neighboring town
last week got a wedding and an auc-
ton item mixed so that when the
paper appeared the social event of
the week" read something like this,
says The Olivia Times:
William Smith, the only son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Josiah Smith, was disposed
of at public auction to Lucy Sander
son on my farm one mile east Of this
place in the presence of several
guests. including the following, to
wit: 2 mules. IL head of cattle.
Rev. Jackson tied the knot, averag-
ing 1850 pounds on the hoof. The
beautiful home Of the bride was
profusely decorated with one Siwash
spade, one sulky rake. one feed
grinder. one set of double harness

mony was pronounced. Memberships

shown the lace work.
He was entertained during his
stay in Redwood Falls at the home
of Mr.. Hitchcock.
Wednesday evening DR.. Eastman
spoke at the Christian church on
"The Last Stand of the Sioux"
There was an excellent attendance.
The speaker described the morning
of the outbreak at which time he
was living a few miles from the
present city of Redwood Falls. The
massacre Of Clusters army was told
with considerable detail.
A large number of Indians were
present but the address did not ap-
parently excite them. On the con-
trary one of them went sound asleep.

WAYZATA WANTS TAFT.
Historic Lake Minnetonka Village As
pires to Be Nations Summer Capital.

Wayzata, the historic village of
Lake Minnetonka, aspires to be the
summer capital" of the United
States. In a telegram sent to Presi-
dent w. HI. Taft, the village offers
to donate a beautiful tract of eight
acres. known as BALD HILL" over
looking the entire lake, as site for
a presidential summer home. The
offer is made through members of
the village council and the leading
business men of the village and is
heartily concurred in by every citi-
zen. The telegram is as follows:
"Wayzata, Mimi, May 8, 1911.
Hon. William H. Taft, President
United States. Washington. D. C.
Dear Sir: We observe the sug-
gestion recently made by Senator
Kenyon of Iowa that the govern
ment of the United States should
build and maintain summer resi-
dence for the president; and the rec
ommendation that Lake Minneton-
ka, the beautiful lake at Minneapo-
lis, Mimi, would be suitable place.
Therefore, acting upon the
suggestion, we hereby tender
to the United States govern
ment through you suitable build
ing site overlooking this beautiful
body of water at the village Way
zeta, on the north shore of Lake
Minnetonka, as the summer home
for yourself and your successors.
From June till October no more de-
lightful place can be found in the
world than this and we are sure you
would find it restfull and pleasant
place in which to establish sum-
mer capitol"

this if he went right after it..
Tawney is vote getter, because he
is an organizer. He had the poor
First crying for mercy for years
and not a man had a look in. He
might have kept it right there if he
hadn't become so big man down
at Washington. He didn't have
time to keep up the pressure. AS a.
result he went under to a certain
Sydney Anderson. No one expects
he can jump out and lick Anderson
in the First, but when it comes to
the entire state it might be a diff
ferent matter.
A. J. Rockne, Zumbrota, who has
been thinking of scalping Charlie
Davis of St. Peter in the Third, is
suggested as man who might take
the state into camp.
L. C. Spooner of Morris, Seventh
district, has been mentioned and he
would make some campaign if he
all unwound himself. Spooner is a
powerful speaker, keen thinker
and one of the best informed men
in the state.
Attorney General Simpson and
Governor Eberhart are not pulling
together. The clash has come oyer
the F. A. Whittier matter. The
governor has said Whittier must be
busted from his position as head of
the boys training school at Red
Wing. Cant be done without a
hearing" says the attorney general.
1t has been known for a long time
that there is not the kindest feeling
between the two officials.
Whatever's the reason, Mr.. Simp-
son has refured to play the game
with the administration and it's up
to the governor to show cause.

lying was a capital offence among
the Sioux" says DIR. Eastman.
There are people who are mean
enough to contend that lying is still
a "capitol' offence.

owner had a right to deduct his
debts. On the balance listed he
was compelled to pay the regular
tax rate. AS taxation of credits on
the regular rate confscates fully
h alf the revenue, very little has been
reported, and the tax commission
secured the passage of new act,
the A. J. Peterson bill. Under this.
law taxpayers may list their moneys
and credits, excepting mortgages
and bank stock, separately, and up
on this they will pay fiat rate of 3
mills on the dollar.

DUNN Defends LEGISLATURE.

Undue influence never had look
in at the last session of the legisla-
ture says R. C. Dunn.
Mr.. Dunn should know, he was
right there all the time. He was
most especially there when the ton
mage tax was under discussion.
Anyway Mr.. Dunn says:
There never was a legislature
freer from the charge of undue in
fuence than the thirty-seventh, and
that fact was widely commented on
by intelligent and impartial obsery-
ers. True, it is charged that GER
tain interests had expended consi-
derable money in electing members
of both branches of the house who
would oppose the enactment of any
radical temperance legislation. AS
to the truth or falsity of these
charges | cannot say. But | do be.
lieve that not a dollar was expended
by an individual or interest to pro-
mote or defeat legislation after the
legislature had convened"
Praise is in order for speaker H.
H. Dunn thinks the Princeton sage.
He says:
"A fairer presiding officer never
occupied the speakers chair than H.
Dunn-sometimes he was so fair as
to disregard the rules of the House
to favor the minority"
This Observation-Disclosures seems
to have had its reward because Mr..
Dunn admits that the speaker would
have been forced to resign the
speakership had it not been for the
Democrats.
Attention is called to the COM
mendable measures passed of which
Dunn cites great many. These
are mentioned to prove the legisIa-
ture does not merit the state wide
condemnation it has received.

MAYOR DAVIS IN TOWN.
Passes Through Redwood Fails Going
Home From WiIImar.

Thomas DAVIS, mayor of Marshall,
stormed into Redwood Falls on
Thursday. He was on his way home
from Willmar where he attended a
conclave of the Elks.
Mr.. Davis talks wrestling. base
ball, politics and philosophy all in
the same breath and gets away with
it. AS to his own future he had
nothing to say. He was accompa
MED by William Thorbun, Patrick
Sullivan and P. Menard.
Other Redwood Falls visitors
from Marshall last week were: Mr..
and Mrs. w. F. Gieseke, Miss C. M.
Paige, Mrs. H. H. Gieseke, Burl
Story and John Daley.

Credits Must Be Listed.

Debts may not be offset against
credits in listing them for taxation
under the new law, fixing a fiat
3-mill rate of tax on moneys and
credits. Attorney General G. T.
Simpson has ruled on this question
in response to an inquiry from Frank
L. Powers, assessor Of Ramsey
county.
Under the..old law, before listing
moneys and credits for taxation, the

the FIVE per cent. gross earning tax
bill.
When the next legislature meets
the gross earnings tax will be boost
ed, So much is certain.
AS stringent legislation as the
laws of the state and nation will
permit is in store for the Minnesota
roads.

The man who gets the best seat on

Leayitt Corning of st. Paul, who
counts himself as progressive of
some speed, s.hands the chilly stuff to
Taft with a vengeance. He hasn't
a friend in Washington" says Mr..
Corning. Democrats, standpats,
progressives, all agin him."
This attitude of Mr.. Corning's is
taken to be suggestive of something
on the part of the progressives of
this great state. Corning talks the
way the progressives feel. He is
quoted as ssbeing emphatically for
Theodore Roosevelt for president in
1912.
In spite of. this there is every
reason to feel certain LaFollette is
planning on picking up the support
of the progressives. Roosevelt,
meanwhile, has expressed a decided
preference for the snow buried fast
nesses of Greenland. At present it
looks as though Taft might beat him
to it.
Uncle Joe Cannon, while all this
