Estate AND TALBOT
| CLASH over TAXES
County Commission Threatens Legal
Fight If Assessments Are Boosted.

Easton, Md, Nov .25-A protest
has been made against local tax as
SCISSORS by Nj. J. Lindsay OF the State
TAX commission. He was here TINS
week and insisted on higher as
sesslnent on farm lands, especially
those bordering on the State road. he
paced the value of such lands from
so to 500.
The County Commissioners refus-
ed fatty to comply with the wishes OF
the State representative. whereupon
MI. Lindsay replied that the State
Commission would call for a new as
sessment. The Commissi toner's de-
clared that the assessment would
have to be made by the Commission;
that the Talbot board would not
do it.
MI. Lindsay quoted the figures OF
| Dorchester county, showing how
much the values had been raised.
The County Commissioners here

State Tax Commission that injunc'

Setting Up q StraaU Mon.

When P. Liesch editorialized so elo-
quently last week about the "vandals'
who had painted the Catholic parish
house red, he was merely setting up a
straw man to have chance to knock
something down. He wanted to be
in good company in the matter OF
painting and so, he tries to make out
that somebody had also maliciously
painted the parish house, an assertion
which has no foundation in fact what
soever. ,.r.-..# sss T.. ,.~.- ...
The house on South Minnesota street
which is being remodelled for use as a
parish house is being redecorated.
Some paint was left in the room over
night and evidently some young, wild
boys got into the place late in the eve
ming. 1t appears that they inadver-.
family enough upset one OF the pant
pals and then proceeded in a child
dish attempt to1wipe it off the floor
with the paint brush, which OF course
made bad matters worse. But that
there was any malice in connection
with this episode is absolute fiction
and the result of the perpetual brain
storm in which a soured individual
tries to- exercise his peeved mental
weakness. Furthermore, P. was IN
possession of the facts and knew just
as we'll as anybody else that the paint
spill at the parish house was done &C
cidentally by bunch of kids and when
he still insists that. it wss the work OF
vandals and tries to insinuate that
someone had grudge against the
Catholics, he surely is not doing a
serviceato the large group Of splendid
citizens in New Ulm who are Catholics
P's outburst would have the outside
world believe that the Catholics
in. New .Ulm are unpopular and have
sinister enemies, which is just con-
trary to the facts. E.
That the painting at Beecher's and
at the Journal office was done malici-
ously is plain enough. And the Re-
pie.u is now and always has been OPP
posed to such means of showing re-
venge.. But to try to work in small
accident at the Catholic parish house
as a part of the same kind of thing,
when there isn't the slightest reason
back of it,. should be resented, and no
doubt will be.

Class Standards IN America.

The leading business men of Rich
mond, Va, members of the local ro-
tary club, have just decided what the
income Of the business man must he
in order to afford minimum stand
ard Of living. Each member was
asked to submit the lowest figure upor
which he thought he could maintain
his family in tolerable circumstances.
The various estimates were presented
and voted upon by the body. When
food, clothing, fuel, rent, insurance
premiums and medical attention had
been passed upon, it was found that
the expense account was $5,325 fol
the year, although fire insurance,
school bills, amusements, taxes, re-
placement of furniture, and savings
had not yet been considered.
The minim1 m income, it has been
judged, workers in industry in America
should receive has been figured various :
ly from $500 to $4,000. The rail
ROAD poard set a basic wage Tor section
men alta figure between $500 and 5000.
1t actually cut the wages of the lowest
paid railroad employees to $563.O4

Justice In Minnesota.

w. FL. sSchaefer, convicted of wreck
ing fourteen Minnesota state banks
three years ago, was released from state
prison some time ago by the parole
board Of this state. The-release was
made secretly, which is very unusual
indeed, and shows that the Preus ad.
ministration knew that, such an act
would notS stand the light of day.
Schaefer had been out of prison for
some time when the news leaked out
abo 1t his release due to his being seen
by people who recognized him. When
called upon for the facts, the Preus adj
miniss!trati9n had to admit that he had

Better Times.
''The records at the Court House,
says The Redwood Gazette, "divulge
that the average farmer who has been
engaged in grain-farming for the last
ten or twenty years has bigger
mortgage on his farm today than he
had at that time. So it is evident
that the only thing he has to show for
his years of toll is the increase in value
of his land"
True, every word of it. And the in
creased value, socalled, of the land
doesn't do the farmer who farms his
own land any good. The only effect
on him is that be has larger valuation
to pay taxes on The land doesn't
produce any more just because the
assessor lists it as being Of higher
value than it was ten or twenty years
ago. The high valuation of land is
therefore detriment to the farmer
who farms his farm. If he sells his
farm, he gets more for it than he
would have gotten ten or twenty
years ago, but if he wants to continue
in the farming business, he must pay
the high valuation price for another
farm, so he isn't cent ahead on that
either. The only manner in which
he can get an advantage out Of the
high valuation Of land is to sell and
quit farming. But then he is face to
I face with another problem. He knows
Land understands farming, and if he
has been at that work for long time,
he has lost the knack and desire to do
lanything else. He is not fitted for
other work. So there you are again
The high valuation on farm land, the
boom prices, are of no value whatever
to the farmer. 1t was a fine thing for
real estate brokers while the boom was
on, but after the boom is over, it only
gives the farm owner who works his
own farm a chance to pay more taxes.
I'm judging the value Of any invest
ment, Z continues The Redwood Gazette,
the two paramount points to be con-
sidered are its safety and it's yield.
An investment where one is also using
his own managerial ability should
yield ct least six per cent. # It does
not, that individual would be better
off to put his money at interest and
himself, work out by the day.

been released in secret. The deal was
so raw that it was condemned even
by such conservative hackers of tie
Preus administration as the st. Paul
Pioneer Press and Dispatch, the st.
Paul Daily News, the Minneapolis
Tribune and the Minneapolis Journal
as well as the progressive papers Of the
state>
It is also becoming known now that
while Schaefer did spend some time in
the Saltwater institution, he enjoyed
very special privileges all the time he
was there. He was the warden's
chauffeur and was out in the open
air good deal of the time. He was
also seen by neighbors sneaking up to
his home on Saturdays to spend the
weekend with his family, while he
was supposed to be in prison. When
complaints were made to the warden
about Schaefer's unusual freedom, he
was made a waiter in the prison dining
room. But now,, he is released en-
tirely.
The peculiar treatment accorded this
notorious bankwrecker recalls to mind
the fact that Schaefer suddenly pleaded
guilty after his trial had progressed for
several weeks It was rumored that
the names of some very prominent men
in Minnesota state affairs were to be
brought out in the trial. But sudden
| ", as stated, Schaefer pleaded guilty
and deep silence settled over the
affair. And the prisoner was treated
more as guest than as a prisoner and
is now secretly released entirely. All
of which is food for thought.
Why did Schaefer, who had started
to fight his case, suddenly plead guilty!
Why did he get such exceptional treat
ment during the short time that he
was in prison? Why was never his
name given out by Governor Preus'
PAROLE board during the six months
that his name was in the list every
month petitioning for parole? Why
did the Preus parole board secret y
parole him. Was deal entered into
at the time Schaefer plead gui ty?
Was his plea of guilty" to save the
'higher ups'' and for which he was to
be rewarded later? Is Schaefer an
important cog in the Preus political
machine in Minnesota? Was it neces-
sary To do these things to keep the
Preus machine in control of politics
in Minnesota? .l.s
We do not know the answers to
these, questions, but we have our very

surely didn't put on any weight during
