Phone Company
May Sell Property
TRI-STATE COMPANY NEGOTIAT-
ING FOR EQUIPMENT OF LO-
CAL COMPANY.

During the past week an inventory
has been made of the lines, office fix
lures and other equipment of the Red
wood Falls local Telephone Company
and it has been offered, at the invoic-
ed price, to the Tri-State Telephone
Company which have been anxious for
some time to obtain the property. The
sale has not been concluded and will
not be until the return of one of the
Tri-State officials who is now IN the
East. However it has been verbally
assured by both companies and will III
all probability be made.
This will take the telephone service
of Redwood Falls out of the hands of
local management entirely, placing 1t
in the control of an outside firm. The
local company realizes that it is prac-
tically impossible, under present price
conditions for any comptny to make
changes and improvements demanded
of the present company without great
" increasing the price for service rem
dered and is glad to evade these de-
mands by the proposed sale. 1t is
highly improbable that the new own
ers will find it practicable to make
improvements without decided In
crease in rates, and the change Of own
ership may mean that phone service
in the city will become more expen-
sive to the patrons of the line than
it now is. Definite announcement of
the change in ownership will undoubt-
edly be made within the next few days.

Getting Ready to
Enforce Dry Law
WASHINGTON STATES AGENTS
ARE BEING TRAINED TO EN-
FORCE DRY REGULATIONS

It is said that the department of
justice is not averse to accepting the
function Of enforcing the wartime pro-
hibition law when it goes into effect
July /.
1t is expected a proposal that the
enforcement be entrusted to this
agency will be submitted to President
Wilson on his return from Europe, and
that he will be urged to take this ac-
tion under authority of the Overman
act which permits him to transfer du-
ties from one government department.
to another.
According to information from
Washington three thousand internal
revenue agents, working In special
zones throughout the United States.
will enforce prohibition after July l,
according to plans announced by the
revenue bureau Nearly 800 inspec-
tors will be trained for the work, to be
added to the force of 2,283 revenue
agents already available.
This force of agents will be distrib-
uted among the districts where law
violation is threatened to the largest
extent. In addition the revenue aIl-
thorities plan to cooperate with local
police. and to leave the greater part
of the enforcement work to these au-
thorities.
Bureau agents under the direction
of B. G.. Kieth, deputy commissioner,
now are working on plan to divide
the country into zones which will be
Independent in many cases from the
64 collector zones already established.
One chief Inspector will be assigned
to each zone, with as many assistants
as necessary. The men will be es-
pecially trained in detection work.
Prohibition is expected to stimulate
illicit distillaton enormously IN cities.
Hundreds of recipes for home manu-
facture of beer, ale, wines and even
distilled liquors, are now being circu
lated in all parts of the country.
It was explained that to make liquor
according to these recipes will constl-
tute clear violations of the law, al
though it was admitted it would be
difficult to prevent the manufacture.
Private stills can be acquired legal
" only by registration with the rev.
enue collector of the district. Manu-
featuring of stills are under strict
regulation, being required to pay $50
a year license and specific tax Of $50
on each still or worm sold. In addi-
ton, the manufacturer is required BY
law to report the name and address of
the purchaser, and the purchaser of
the still is required to report the pur-
pose of his still.
Great care is to be observed to pre-
vent unnecessary interference with
production and distribution of alcohol
Cor industrial and commercial purpos-
es.
By system of regulations the bu-
reau plans to make it difficult to use
flavoring extracts, perfumes, toilet
and other articles con-
tanning alcohol as beverages. Medi-
cines containing alcohol already must
have composition to make it physi-
cally impossible to take quantities.

only $4,000 for the Y w. G. A. fund

Asked to Help
Fire Department
STATE FIRE MARSHALL sue
GESTS THAT CITIZENS BE
ASKED TO COOPERATE

Joe Corbett, chief of the Redwood
Falls Fire Department, recently re-
ceived a letter from the office of the
State Fire Marshall in which that of
f1clals makes it quite clear that citi-
zens Of small cities must not place
the responsibility for fire protection
entirely upon the shoulders of their
local fire departments, that each
must help to the utmost in keeping
his premises clear of inflamible mat
erial and must help in every other
way to enforce the fire regulations.
The letter follows and is self explain
atory.
To the Chief of the Fire Department.
Dear Sir
"As Chief of the Fire Department
of your town, the people rely on you
and your department. for protection
in case of fire. They expect you and
your men to get on the job in the
quickest possible time day and night,
regardless of the weather, to protect
their property from destruction by
fire which possibly has started from
their own carelessness.
Sometimes firemen are called up
on to risk their own lives in an eff
fort to rescue someone who is trapped
in burning building. Your duty may
subject you to the severest weather
and you run the chances of contract
ing pneumonia from exposure in sub
zero weather. Your job is not plea
SAINT one and it is not fair to should
er all the responsibility on the Fire
Department. Every person IN your
town should share this responsibility
with you. They should help you fight
their fires before they start by remov-
ing the cause.
eff all Easements, attics and store
rooms were kept free from rubbish,
if all chimneys and flues were kept
clean and all defective ones repaired,
if electric wiring and electric appli--
ances were looked after and kept in
good condition, if people would stop
. using oil for starting fires and stop
splacing ashes in wooden receptacles
OF dumping them near fences or build
ings, if people would be more careful
in the use of matches and not leave
them where children could get hold
of them, if people would exercise some
care with reference to the above sug-
gestions. the fire hazard would be
greatly reduced in your town. Every
one would be working together with
one object in view-that of prevent
ing fire.
'.Why not put it up to the peo-
pie in your town in this way through
your local press, asking their cooper
alton and then see that they make
good by making inspections every
thirty days. am sure they will do it
if you put it up to them in the right
way and, though it will take little of
time of you and your men for inspec-
ton work, it may keep you from be-
ing routed out on many a bad night
to fight fire and will make your town
a better and safer one to live in"
Ia Very respectfully yours,
State Fire Marshall

A. R. Rogers Says
I'VE Are Uneasy"
NINTH DISTRICT CHAIRMAN
ASKS WORKERS TO CLEAN UP
BOND SALE THIS WEEK

A. r. Rogers, chairman of the Ninth
District Victory Bond Organization,
under date of May /, sent out the fol-
lowing letter to his assistants throug-
out the district. The letter succinct-
ly states the present status of the
bond sale and is of interest, not only
to those who have been appointed as
solicitors but also to the purchaser
and uld-be-purchasers of these
bonds.
''To date only fifty-eight counties
have reported complete subscriptions.
'eThe total amount reported by the
counties in which the campaign has
been completed is $68, $50, 600 These
are the exact figures. We have
long way to go.
'"There are still 235 counties IN
which the job is not finished.
"The banks have only reported up to
noon of the Both $53, 900, ,00O-$105,-
100000 short of our allotment.
"We are naturally anxious about
the results. If your county has not
reached it's allotment, will you not
give it one final twist, put behind il
your old time vigor, stir up the coun-
ty workers, put the enthusiasm and
punch into the final squirt that is nee
essary?
"This is the last campaign. We
know your workers are tired. You
are probably tired yourself. Prior
to last November the eleventh, pro-
badly every soldier in France was
tired, but they could not leaveA until
their job was finished and they were
discharged, and as they stayed until
they completed their task regardless
of their feelings, so must we.
"We realize that the delay in the
farming communities up to the pres
ent time is due almost wholly to the
condition of the roads in the begin
ming of the campaign and also to the
very late spring and the desire of the
farmers to get their seed into the
ground. Surely it is vitally import
ant to finish seeding. At the same
time, it is absolutely necessary that
the bills of the Government be paid
and that the securities offered be
sold.
eve find that some of the counties
which have already completed their al
lotments have utilized the men from
the cities and towns as solicitors in
the county rather than depend up
on the farmers who are busy with
their crops. The telephone has been
used freely and many other schemes
have been adopted which have proven
successful in different parts of the
district. Are you using any or all of
these means to help you clean up the
job?
"To be perfectly frank with you,
we are uneasy. We have waited un-
til the very last minute to call it to
your attention. We cannot postpone
it longer and we knew that asking is
the equivalent of having it done, con-
sequently we feel very confident that
when we ask you. "Will you clean
up this job and do it now? ?"-you will
do it.
"We cannot get credit for our sub
scriptions until the banks make re-
port of their subscriptions to the Fed
eral Reserve Bank Rush your cards
forward and urge the banks to make
their postal card report to the FEEDER
al Reserve Bank on the amount of
subscriptions turned in to them"
Yours for the Victory Loan,
A. r. Rogers, Chairman.
