a short time. The Independent has
been in existance only little over a
year, and was supposed to have the
backing of the banks and business
men Of Lamberton. Tie Independent
came out as usual last week, but
Charles is said to have been in Iowa
the past; few weeks. So, Lamberton
still has three newspapers. ard will
continue to have three, we suppose,
until the parties interested get tired of
digging up the cash" Lanlberton
has as much use for three papers as
a cat has for seven tails. This is the
same mighty Charles" who came to
Redwood county few years ago to
bust" the county printing combine
and put all other newspapers in the
graveyard. He also attempted to
move the court house, and do various
other great deeds, with the help Of
county commissioners. But then,
Charles is young man yet, and that's
something else again. How come that

ty are still doing business az 49, cid

LETTER
ON INCOME DECISION
Continued from first page

investment from income tax returns
because these were capital losses. If
this view be found correct then the
result of this decision if it be affirmed
will be to create much confusion. 1t
may entail legislation by Congress to
bring order.
Indifferent to the Law.
Discussion over this decision has led
to reports which tell Of the alleged in
difference to the income tax law which
prevails in some parts of the country.
In some very large districts income
returns have been almost completely
ignored While the government offic-
ers recognize that this Indifference
prevails, they are almost powerless to
reach it because it would require a
vastly increased clerical force to
search the country in order to learn
whether or not all persons who should
have made income tax returns had
done so. In fact it is reported that in
some states there are from six to eight
owners of automobiles to every one
of those who report income returns.
And it is regarded as not conceivable
that man can own and operate an
automobile and yet have sufficient in
come to meet the requirements of the
tax collector.
Editors note: The text Of this de-
cision, also taken from the Wall
Street Journal will be reprinted in the

A certain editor of country news
paper in Kansas was asked to leave
the community as result of typo
graphical error in his report of the
wedding Of the mayors daughter. AT
ter exhausting his supply of big words
about the ''blushing BRIDE" he said
"The large, elaborate bouquets of
roses were punk" The mayor de-
manded a correction and apology in
the next weeks issue all of which the
editor was glad to promise. The next
issue contained: eve wish to apollo
gize for the manner in which we dis
graced the beautiful wedding last
week. Through an error of the type
setter we were made to say the roses
were punk What we wanted to say
was that the noses were pink. y
