Lodges Unite

At the regular meeting of the
Knights of Pythias last evening fif-
teen members of the Herman lodge
united with the Morris lodge. This
is the outcome of movement started
several weeks ago when a delegation
of the Morris lodge went to Herman
and proposed the plan. There are two
advantages to be gained by the union.
One advantage is that the Morris lodge
is very anxious to secure one of the
three prizes offered by the grand
lodge, to the lodge securing the
most new members. At present the
Morris lodge has a very good show of
winning one of the prizes.
Another advantage gained is that
the Herman lodge has not had regular
meetings for some time as there was
not enough attending to warrant
meeting, while now they can meet
with the Morris lodge and by lending
their help insure good meeting fol
both lodges.

it is, there being by actual count more
than $50 people present at last Sum-
day morning services alone. and fully
as large number in attendance at
the evening service and yet with this
good attendeanc we have room and to
spare for any others who desire to at
tend the services.
The coming Sundays services will
be held at the usual hours. The choir
will furnish music. Mrs. L. D. Tripp
and Mrs. Geo. w. Beise will render
a vocal duet. The pastors sermon
theme will be Goods dealing with

the pastor will present to the church
and congregation with the good will
of the donor very handsome and
useful gift. The evening theme will
be: "Naaman's Cure" Good music
will also be rendered.
A cordial welcome is extended to

TAXATION IN MINNESOTA
A Series Prepared by the Min
nesota Tax Commission.
v.-REvIEWING THE ASSESS
MENTS.

Very evidently the legislative mind
did not trust solely to the performance
by the local assessor of his duties in
''diligent, faithful and impartial"
manner. 1t doubtless had in mind
the frailties of human nature that
initiate against such performance of
duties, as well as the possible mac
curacy Of Judgment in valuing real
and personal property.
So it set over the assessor a board
of review composed of the town boatd
of each town, the assessor. clerk and
president of each village, and the
assessor, clerk and mayor of each city,
except as to those cities whose chart
ers provide otherwise. In fourth
class cities, except those whose chart
ers provide board of equalization,
the board consists of the mayor, clerk
and board of aldermen. The function
of these several boards is to equalize
assessments as between individual
property owners of their respective
districts: to raise or lower assessments
and to add to the lists property that
the assessor may have overlooked and
fix it's value. If an assessment is
raised the owner is entitled to notice
and hearing, or if any owner feels
aggrieved he may be heard and such
correction made as the board may
deem just.
These several boards meet at the
office of the clerk of the town or dis
trict on the fourth Monday in June.
They may sit until the first Monday in
July. giving them six working days
with pay at So day, though in fourth
class cities the pay of the board is
limited to three days in each year.
By the latter date the assessors must
return their books and listing sheets
to the county auditor.
| Residents of the district, if they
would have their assessments cor
rected, must appear before the local
board of review, but non-residents
may have their assessments reviewed
by the county board Of equalization.
| These assessors and boards of review
are local. their members chosen by
their fellow citizens, and subject to
local influences. But it is upon the
faithful discharge of their duties that
the taxpayers of the districts must
rely for fair and equitable assess
ment as between themselves. Resi-.
dent taxpayers should understand that
their local board of review is the
place for them to have their assess
ments. if deemed unjust, corrected.
