MARKS DISCUSSES
HOlTz'S LETTER

.<% q. J. Marks, president of the
Woburn Farmers Club, writes The
Tribune the following interesting
latter in answer to one written a
short time ago to the St. Paul Daily
/ News by j. H Holtz of near. North
gate.
Just why some people insist. in
5misrepresenting things when SUCH
misrepre cannot possibly
do them any good, and may at the
same time do themselves as well as
their neighbors much harm, is
hard for me to understand, but
nevertheless find such to be the
case in many instances. In the
issue of March IL, 1920, of the st.
Paul Daily News I find the follow,
ing letter written by one of the
prominent Burke county farmers,
and it explains itself:
Editor, Daily News: The fol-
lowing is tax list on property
owned by me at Flaxton, Burke
county, N. D. II you want to pay
taxes like the following statement,
! vote for Townley;sm. This shows
my taxes for three years. A. ~ .
$245.01 y. ..-.-
1918-$291.S4
1919-$621.O under the Town
ley regime.
To the voters of Minnesota, l
Z beg of youAnot to allow A. c. Town
ley, to rule your state as he is rul-
ing North Dakota. 1t is one-man
government. Yours for a square
deal.
Flaxton, N. D. III. G. HOLTZ."
Mr.. Holtz is prominent farmer
residing near Northgate, and by
( looking up the tax records in the
office Of the county treasurer Of
Burke county we find that his total
taxes increased each year as given
inchis letter, but that neither Town
ley nor the state had anything to
do with the big increase. A care
ful perusal of the following record
T. taken from the Office Of the treas
urer Of Burke county shows that
the county and school district are
getting practically all of the money
paid by Mr.. Holtz in increased
taxes. No one has ever yet ac-
cused either Townley or the state
of North Dakota Of being respons-
ible for money collected by either
the county or the school districts,
and spent for county. and school
purposes. The records snow the
following statement sofs taxes paid

vince any fair minded person that

The annual school election was held
in this city yesterday but very little
interest was manifested in the mat
ter. There were two directors to elect
to succeed Messrs. Lee Cowell and C.
E. Spicer and these two gentlemen
were reelected without any opposi-
ton. People should take little more
interest in their school affairs and at
least get out and vote. We are per-
sonally pleased at the reelection of
Messrs. Cowell and Spicer because
thew are men who have the welfare of
our schools at heart and will do moth
ing but what they consider in their
best judgment to be the best thing for
the schools.

VALLEY CITY FANS
SEE REAL BASE BALI

The ball game Tuesday afternoon
between the Valley City team and the
Winnipeg Colored Giants, gave the
local fans one of the finest exhibitions
of real base ball seen on the local dia-
mond in some years.
During the. past week Valley City
has been strengthening it's team until
they have gathered together nine men
that will make real ball team. This
was the first game with the new line
up and the first showing was most
satisfactory to about thousand fans.
The Giants are composed of colored
ball players, consisting of some of the
overflow from the new colored league
now in operation in the east. The east
ern colored league is composed of two
teams in Chicago, one in Detroit, one
in Kansas City, one in St. Louis, one
in Dayton, one in Cleveland and the
Cuban Stars a travelling organization.
The Colored Giants are made up of
young players that are not quite old
enough and well enough seasoned to
make these teams so are EARNED out"
to this travelling organization where
they will finish their base ball educa-
ton. They are taught base ball every
day and what they learn was thor
oughly demonstrated in the last half
of the ninth inning in Tuesdays game
when with three on and none out VAL.
ley City was not allowed to score
two men being caught at the plate in
two hair raising plays.
Valley City now has a team that
with little working together and
getting together on their inside work,
will develop into all that the local fans
can ask for.
Adams, the new pitcher for the To-
calls, made his first start, and pitched
one OF the finest games witnessed this
season. In short, Adams knows how
to pitch base ball and the manage
ment is to be congratulated on secur- !
ing man of his calibre to head the
pitching staff. Among the others I
local players who have strengthened
the local team are Gessner at short, !
Goheen behind the bat, and Meow
ern in the center garden. They work !
Wingfield at first, Becker at third,
Thurston at second and O'Hare and !
johnson filling the other out gardens,
are very pleasing lineup for the To-
cal fans.
The summary and box score of the
game follows:
First Inning
Giants-Boyd to Adams to Wing
field; King famed; Reed out Gessner
to Wing.
Valley City-Gassner famed; Beck
er out short to first; Goheen got
pass; Wingfeld hit for two, but
Goheen was caught at the plate trying
to score from first. One hit, no runs. Il
Second Inning
Giants-Singer singled; Pate doub-
led scoring Singer; Scottie trippled
scoring Pate, Gordon singled scoring
