FROZEN FAST.
Passenger Train CONCEALED TO
Rails in Sank Center.

Sank Center The novel spectacle
of train frozen fast to the rails
RECALLED Sank Centre citizens last Sat-
urday morning. The unfortunate was
the passenger train on the Northern
Pacific running from Morris to Little
Falls through Sank Centre. 1t re-
NAMED here four hours before re-
leased.
The train arrived here on time at
500 a. m. 1t stopped as usual to
take water, passengers. mail and
express. When the water tank in
the tender had been filled, the fireman,
who attends to this operation. found
that the valve in the water tank
would not close. Consequently the
big stream from the tank continued
to spout forth until the tank was
smptied.
The water ran over the rails, and
as the thermometer then registered
% degrees below zero. it froze as
soon as it struck terra frma and the
nails. and it was very near "23" for
the train.
The wheels of the engine, tender
and express and mail car were soon
embedded in ice and frozen fast to
the rails. The most strenuous efforts
were put forth to release the train
from it's unfortunate predicament but
all to no avail. The only thing to
do was TO wait for the east bound
freight. Finally, after long and
nerve-racking wait during which the
passengers bound for. points east of
Sank Centre thought things and train
men said things. the freight appeared.
Conductor Dalrymple in charge. The
freight ran onto the siding, where
the engine was uncoupled and at
tached} to the rear of the passenger
train. A few vigorous shoves and
the passenger was loosened. The
freight enigne then backed up. pulling
the passenger clear of the ice, and in
the course of fifteen minutes the track
was cleared of ice. The couplings of
the passenger train were frozen Sc
that steam heat was cut off and fires
had to be built in the coaches. Short
ly after 1 o'clock the passenger pulled
out and made the trip to Little Falls
without further incident,

A Series Prepared by Minnesota
Tax Commission.
1.-THE GENERAL PROPERTY
TAX

lll--THE GENERAL, PROPERTY
TAX.
The main reliance of the minor
divisions of the state, and, to less
extent, of the state itself, is upon
what is termed the general property
tax" levied directly upon the real
and personal property in the state.
The theory of his tax is that every
person should bear his just share of
the public expenses. and that his abil-
ity to bear it is proportioned{ to the
value of his real and personal proper
ty. This has been the theory upon
which this kind of taxation has been
based since the state was organized.
In the table given in the report of
the tax commission for 1910 is the
following statement of the taxes
raised in 1909 and the uses to which
they were applied: H.

This is a point in the management of

If your cattle are not making sat-

do not decide that it does not pay to

Rotation of crops is one of the sim

An Appreciation of Geo. Howley.

The Pine County Farmer, edited by
E. B. Linsley, formerly of Morris,
has the following appreciation of the
late George B. Howley:-
''The death of Geo. B. Howley, ex-
president of the Minnesota Federation
of Labor, which occurred at Mime
apolis on the 9th inst, removes very
unique character from Minnesota labor
organizations. and man of extraor-
binary ability in handling men. The
writer was intimately acquainted with
Mr.. Howley at Morris for number
of years and had abundant opportunity
to know and understand him. He
was a man of little or no educational
training, but his natural ability and
aggressive, pugnatious qualities more
than made up for the lack of early
schooling. He was natural born
leader and wouldn't hesitate to
"swing" on the other fellows jaw
if it seemed necessary to convince him.
When George started out to select
funds for the Morris Ball Club of
which he was a member, those who
could be relied on to give nothing,
usually coughed up ten spot, while
those who were willing to give ten,
usually came across with twenty. He
could "bawl man out" with more
precision than any man we ever lis
tened to and these qualities. coupled
with an active and shrewd intellect
made Howley a power among labor
organizations. He went to Mime
apolis to work at his trade, that of
painter, and with in few months was
elected secretary of the Building
Trades Coucnil. A short time there
after he was chosen president of the
State Federation of Labor. much to
the establishment of his old friends
at Morris. He held the Office for
several years. In many ways he was
quite a remarkable man and his num-
erous friends about the state will sim
cerely regret his DEATH

South Amboy Trade Board
Urged to Action.
s,,cto, to the EVENING NEWs.

South Amboy, August 5.-The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company has
just issued q notice inviting the CO.
operation OF Chambers of Commerce,
Boards of Trade and other CONNER
cial organizations in locating new
industries along its lines. 1t has
a staff of thirteen division freight
agents located at the principal points
on it's lines, whose duties include
industrial development in the terri
tory under their jurisdiction. There
has also been established at Broad
street station, Philadelphia, an in
dustrial department under the direc-
ton of the general freight agent
and In charge of John H. Whitaker,
special agent.
Now in the industrial department
there are to be found an active list
Of available buildings, also build
ing sites, and Is prepared to furnish
full information regarding the same.
The company has Just issued an in
dustrial directory, containing a
classified list Of commodities, alpha
betically arranged giving the names
Of shippers and receivers at all
points on the Pennsylvania railroad,
east of Pittsburgh. AS the P. R. R.
Company own land in Perth Amboy
and a large tract in South Amboy,
here is n grand opportunity for
both cities, especially in South Am
boy.
Our Board of Trade has been cast
ing about for several years to locate
factories in our city and apparently
when it was thought the location of
an industry was about cllnched it
was found that some was soliciting
subscribers to purchase the land or
some other obstacle was in the way
and the factory went to some other
location. The Board of Trade in
our town, especially wants to get
busy; If they have disbanded they
want to reorganize and to elect men
to office who have an interest in the
growth and welfare of the city.
Don't let us be slow in this mat
ter, as no doubt out sister city will
be on the alert, now that the action
of the company has been made pub
lie by circular and through the press.
