CHAPTER vi

There was no specific reason why
Robert Fairchild should follow Maui
rice Rodaine and the young woman
who had been described TO him as the
daughter of Judge Richmond, who
ever he might be. Resentment was in
his heart-resentment that the family
Of Rodaine should be connected in
some way with the piquant, mysteri-
Gus little person he had helped out of
a predicament on the Denver road the
day before And, to his chagrin, the
very fact that there was a connection
added a more sinister note to the es-
canade of the exploded tire and the
pu suing sheriff; as he walked along
his gaze far ahead Fairchild found
hin self wondering whether there
coul1 be more than mere coincidence
in it al, whether she was a part of
the Rodaine schemes and the Rodaine
trickery, whether

soda fountain and stand watching the

same girl: there could be no doubt Of
that and he ragged inwardIy as she
chatted and chaGted with the man who
looked down uIoD her with a smiling
air of proprietor2hip which instilled
instant rebellion in Fairchild's heart
Nor did he know the reason for that
either
After a moment they parted, and
Fairchild gulped at his fountain drink
She had hesitated. then with a quick
decision turned straight into the drug

asked of the man behind the counter.

demurred.

"Well sell it to himl' And Fair
child, looking into the soda-fountain

druggist started toward the prescrip-

THE GREAT ISSUE In MINNESOTA

If Governor Preus is right, the para
mount issue in Minnesota this campaign
year is the reduction of taxation. That is
the issue which he has brought 2, to the
front IN his opening speech at Montevideo.
It is the issue that comes home closely to
every citizen in some form: It is the issue
that needs wide discussion for the educa-
ton of the people. =: -: =
In these days of mounting taxes, when
the old rates are doubled and trebled,
when new taxes grow where none grew be-
fore, when the Federal government in adj
justing the burden of the Wars cost adds
a new load to the State and local . taxes
with which we had long been familiar, it
is well to make the matter the object of
intensive study. -. 49, ,>..' 49,
Governor Preus approaches the subject
with the advantage of close familiarity
through his service as State Auditor, to
which he has added the experience gain

ministration to tighten the tax load in>the
face of multiplying demands for >expendi-
ture and expansion. T., : :,

township. We learn that the general prop.
erty taxes levied in 1921 ram up to lob
millions dollars, but that only 3:39s per cent
of this was for State PURPOSES, as against
more than eight per cent in 1911. We learn
that&the direct levy for State, purposes
which the administration was able to-,
omit entirely last year, will not be col
lected this year either. " We learn that
two7thirdso of last years State taxes went,

The next largest fraction, more than %

but one that each municipality must till for
itself. ~
And then comes the nearly 20 per cent :
spent for good roads-a large our go, but
bringing in satisfactory dividends ON the
investment. But the Governor wisely
counsels restraint in road expenditure for
the present, until the process of readjust-
ment has gone farther.

In other words. the political par
ties have a name to live but they
are dead.
The reason they are in this con-

render principles for policies.
