proved to be combination that broke
down his sense of right and wrong
and Alfred and a couple of his COM
panions skipped, Alfred's money fin
ancing the trio.
'The whole proposition from the
time the boy first wrote covered a
period of several months but the faith
er thought that Alfred must have been
released from the army alright as he
did not hear from him but wondered
why he did not return home. Finally
he heard from Alfred not long ago
from some point in Ohio informing
him that he got out of the army but
did not have money enough left at
the time to, get home. He Informed
his father that he was out of work
and had no job and begged him to
send him $50 for railroad fare to Nor
gan. The father was little SUSPECT
Gus but still anxious to again have the
boy under the parental roof so he sent
$50 to the mayor of the town with
instructions to buy ticket to Morgan
and send Alfred home, which he did,
Morgan Messenger.
Following his arrest the young man
spent several days in the Redwood
County jail and was then taken to
Fort Smelling and turned over to army
officials.

Morgan Boy Faced
by Serious Charge
ALFRED LOOSE CHARGED WITH
DISCRETION FROM ARMY
ARRESTED.

tsAlfred Loose, who has spent the
past few weeks in Ohio, arrived here
Saturday for visit at the home of
his father, Emil Loose but he had been
in town but an hour or SO when he was
taken in custody by Marshal Schou-
weller on secret orders of the military.
The arrest was made because Alfred
ran away from the army a short time
ago.
"Alfred has served about two years
in the infantry stationed most of the
time at Fort Smelling. 1t got to be a
monotonous grind and Alfred was sick
and tired of it. According to the
story which the father is able to sup
ply from the facts which he knew and
from the story which the boy admitted
to the father Alfred was informed by
some of his companions that he had
served long enough on his enlistment
that he could buy his release for $3.50.
"He was in Michigan at that time
and wrote to his father that he was
tired of army life and that he had
found that he could "buy himself out
of the army for $3.50. He also
figured that he would need $50 more
for fare home and urged his>father to
forward $3.50. After thinking the
matter over Mr.. Loose decided that he
would do that to satisfy his son so he
secured a draft which he had made
out in the name of his son, Alfred.
However, in order that there would
be no slip in the procedure he sent
the draft to Alfred's commanding Of
fcer enclosing letter of explanation
that $3.50 was to pay for the boys re-
lease and the balance was for his fare
home.
According to Alfred's story the Of
fcer forwarded the draft and letter
to the War Department at Washing
ton. Alfred was returned to Fort
Smelling and in due time the draft
reached the commanding officer at
Fort Smelling and was handed over to
the boy to- whom twas made out, and
explained that there was nothing to
the proposition. With tough COM
panions to urge him on, the $3.50 draft,

November Tax
Settlement Made
TREASURER AND AUDITOR DIS
POSE OF HUGE SUM OF $4,000
TO COUNTY DIVISIONS.

The November tax settlement was
completed by county officials Tuesday
of last week. Due to the efficient
work of County Auditor L. p Larson
and County Treasurer A. P. Falk, this
work which was extremely heavy was
done earlier this time than it is usual
ly done and warrants are in the hands
of the subdivisions of the County
earlier than they usually are. The
tax settlement involves over $685.
100000 and to distribute this money
equitably between the twenty-six
townships, sixteen cities and villages
and hundred and sixteen school dis
tricts, entails some real labor in the
offices of both the auditor and the
treasurer.
The tax collection on the Novem-
Der settlement amounted to the grand
total of $3.50, 320.79. The sum was
distributed as follows:
70 State 35,O55.72
To County Gncluding ditch
IaxeS - 143 ,S07.41
Cities and villages----a--- 32,931.93
Townships ---------- 45,6O4.54
School districts - 107, 831 10
Total -----$365, 320.79
In addition to their proportion on
the regular tax levy as shown above
the school districts of the county are
also receiving apportionment from
the state amounting to $23,511. "a.
This is based on 4,318 pupils in the
county, entitled to apportionment, at
the rate of $4.88 per pupil.
Besides the apportionment schools
are also receiving state school aid
amounting to $59,6649O and Library
Aid amounting to $482.

CORN ALONE IS
LOWER At START
Wheat and Oats Show Frac-
tional Opening Gains.
(By Thomson & McKinnonl
By United Financial

By United Financial
CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-Grain prices
opened irregular on the Chicago
Board Of Trade today, wheat and oats
scoring fractional gains, while corn
was weak in a quiet market.
Wheat's early advance was due
to slightly higher prices in Liverpool.
Selling pressure developed early, how
ever, on reports OF further marketing
of the Canadian crop in the United
States. Deliveries of new wheat since
Aug. 1 have been $4,000, 900 bushels,
as against 1859 200, 900 last year, this
being taken to indicate the extent to
which the Canadian wheat is coming
into this county. Crop advices from
the Argentine were favorable, experts
there declaring the prospects for the
new crop excellent.
There was a weak undertone in
corn, due principally to heavier 70.
ceipts than anticipated. The cash
market was weak.
Trading in oats was dull, prices fol-
lowing wheat on the early advance
and then slumping off in sympathy
with the downward movement in the
leader.
Provisions met few early sales, first
prices indicating a slightly lower mar
kket, in line with lower hog prices.
