MICHIGAN TAX CROOKS
More Suits Filed in Van Buren,
County, Michigan, to Remove
Clouds on Titles Than in Any
Other County in the United
States.
Land Sharks and Others So Bold In
Their Juggling Of Books and De.
scriptions That Uncle Sam
May Get Them.

There are more suits filed in the
courts of Van Buren, County; Michi.
gan, to remove clouds from land titles
than there are filed for that purpose
in any other county in the United
States, including those containing the
largest cities In the country.
There have been more professional
land thieves at work In Van Buren,
County than In any other county in
the United States, and they are still
at work.
Men connected with certain lines
of business and using officials elected
in some townships as their tools are
engaged all of the time in clouding
the titles Of honest and bona fide land
owners.
This fact has done more to keep the
county back than any other thing.
The bad name given to this part Of
the State of Michigan by the land
crooks is becoming by.word through.
out the nation.
Many of these crooks claim land
on the strength Of tax titles-ob.
tanned after the rightful owners had
paid the taxes-through juggling Of
descriptions and tax books.
Efforts are to be made to reach
some of them through Federal action,
as the peculiar kold they have on local
authorities precludes hope of reform
In that direction.
Victims OF these bands of crooks
are advised that II they live outside
of Michigan they can bring suit
against officials, hackers, brokers or
others who damage them or their In.
terests In the U. s. courts.
The citizen of Van Buren, County
should wake up to the situation and
retire these grafters to the peniten.
tiary or to some other place where
their public records cannot injure the
community.
Van Buren, County Is naturally rich
In soil, delightful In climate and geo.
graphically ideal for success in every
line.
Its prospects have been blighted.
who have invested there is that they
have been skinned and bothered by
the land shark syndicate.
Congressman Thomas Gallagher Of
Chicago IL one of the most influential
men in Washington.

leading his troops in action on No
vember the 9th. The Official order by
the Marshal. Commander in Chief Of

der enemy fire after having sustained

tive which had been assigned to
them

Clemson College, May 2.-In q re-
cent statement on cotton situation Col.
Clarence Ousley, Assistant Secretary
OF Agriculture, used the following in
teresting comparative data on the
price Of cotton:
There has been much ignorance IN
regard to cotton prices. 1t will sur
prise many people to read the follow
ing figures: The price of cotton on
the farm on April 1, 1914, was 11.9
cents pound, and on April 1, 1919,
24.5 cents a pound, or an increase OF
206 per cent. The price Of wheat en-
April t. 1914 was S4.2 cents busael,
and on April 1, 1919, 214.2 cents a
bushel, or an advance of 259 per cent.
The price of hogs on the farm April
/, 1914, was 7.8 cents a pound, and
on April 1, 1919, 1913 cents a pound.
or an advance of 205 per cent. The
wholesale price of cotton goods, &C
cording to Bradstreet's, on April /.
cloths GAS Boston, and on April i,
1914, Ia cents yard, an advance
of 200 per cent. and Of staple ging-
hams April l, 1914, 6 IL cents a
yard, and on -Aril 1, 1919, II 1-2 cents
an advance of $50 per cent. or an av-
erage advance for these two classes Of
staple goods Of 240 per cent.
while the cost Of producing cot
ton under present circumstances has
not been completely calculated for
each region of the cotton belt, de-
pendable estimates have been made in
several regions, and at the present
price of 245 cents to the farmer cot
ton affords but little, if any. profit.
If the crop Of 1919 should exceed con-
sumption by a million or two bales
and add to the carry-over that much
more, the probability is that cotton
would decline considerably below the
cost of production. That is why cot
ton farmers are Solicitous and bank
ers and merchants in the cotton belt
who are carrying cotton on a credit
basis quite above present quotations
are taking thought of the value Of
their assets as they will necessarily be
affected Immediately by the acreage
and later by the yield of 1919
