SON is SUED FOR PROPERTY
Fergus Falls Farmer Seeks TO Recover
Estate Which He Asserts 10 Being
Wrongfuliy Held

Fergus Falls.-Adolph Biersdorf has
began suit In the district court here
against his son, Carl Biersdorf, to
secure the return of his real estate,
valued at $4,000 and $4,000 in per-
sonal property, which he asserts is
being wrongfully held.
He alleges that in April, 1918, he
was seriously i'll. and while in that
condition he was given paper to sign,
the nature of which he did not know;
that he is not familiar with the Eng.
lish language and that 1t was repre-
scented to him that the signing OF the
paper was of no consequence; that at
ter he recovered. he discovered that
he had signed away his entire farm
and live stock to his son, and that
the latter now treats him like dog"
compelling him to live in one room,
handing him his meals on a platter on
the floor, and locking him in when he
leaves home.
The son replies that the father deed
ed him the property voluntarily with
the understanding he was to support
him and his mother during their lives,
and that he has been doing as he
agreed.

OIL INSPECTION
LAWS ARE UPHELD
DISTRICT JUDGE DECIDES FEES
REQUIRED BY STATE ARE
NOT EXCESSIVE.
STATE NEWS OF MINNESOTA
Interesting and important Happenings
Of the Past Few Days Selected
and Arranged for the conven-
fence OF Busy Readers.

st. Minnesota oil inspec-
ton laws we're upheld in decision
filed by District Judge Hanft in the
case Of the suit by the state against
the Bartels Oil company, In which
the fees were held not excessive.
The oil company, in addition to its
claim that the fees were so excessive
that they became tax. contended
that oils were subject to interstate
commerce regulations Judge Hanft
waived the latter point in making his
decision, but later wrote that the oils
were not subject of interstate com
merce at the time of inspection.
The state sued for sS38.s0, and
Judge Hanft awarded $794S0. holding
though the fees were In excess of the
actual amount required to defray the
expenses incident to inspection alone,
that other departments have to en-
ploy extra men to attend to other
phases of .oil inspection and that
therefore there 10 q corresponding ad-
ditional cost.
Decision Of Vital Importance.
Judge Hanft's decision is OF vital
Importance TO the state, for had he
decided that the fees we're so ex-
cessiye that they automatically be-
came q tax, the oil inspection de-
partment would thereby have been
eliminated, as the power of the bur
eau does not extend to taxation.
Taking the expenses of the work
on oil inspection work devolving upon
the state auditors, the state treasur-
er's, the attorney generals. the public
examiners and the state chemists de-
partments, these fees are not exces.
sive," wrote Judge Hanft.
