Sheriff Schooner Will Move
on Auto Tax Slackers
Execution Sales of Automobiles and
Other Property Now Confront All
Delinquents in Minnesota

Sheriff Ben Schooner is facing the
duty of collecting delinquent motor
vehicle taxes in this county, with the
alternative of having collectable
amounts due the state deducted from
his bills to the county.
Action by sheriffs over the state is
independent of the drives by 100000
car owners who have paid their shares
of the good roads tax to force 10000
to $4,000 slackers to do likewise. In
this campaign many cases are being
reported to Mike Holm, secretary of
state, st. Paul, to be taken up with
local authorities.
Sheriff Earle Brown of >Hennepin
county was one of the first to move on
the auto tax delinquent list certified
by Secretary Holm. Advance warn
ings with statement of taxes and
costs due were sent out as follows:
Pursuant to Chapter 461 of Min
nesota for 1921, the Clerk of the
District Court for the County of
Hennepin, State of Minnesota, has
placed in my hands for collection a
Motor Vehicle Tax Warrant against
you for the year 1923, for the amount
stated below. If this amount is not
paid at this office within seven days
from the date of RECEIPT of this no
tice by you, the law directs me to dis

NEAR SERIOUS ACCIDENT

An automobile accident which had
very painful results occurred south of
Sank Centre last Wednesday night
about II 80, when the Ford carrying
George Traveller and Albert Kind
turned turtle. The car went clear on
over and stood right side up with the
engine running, after the accident.
Albert Kind was badly shaken up and
bruised, one rib was broken, his
shoulder fractured and he had bump
over one eye, and had been knocked
unconscious. He was able to be out
and around in few days, however.
Mr.. Traveller was very painfully in
jured. 1t was at first thought that
his back had been broken but exam
ination showed that it had been badly
wrenched and had two ribs broken
loose from the spinal column. His
condition is improving, although he
is still in considerable pain.

train sufficient goods and chattels
(including your automobile) belong
ing to you, to satisfy this warrant.
Under the laws of this state your
automobile, goods or other chattels
are not exempt from seizure for tax
es. If you fail to pay this warrant,
citation will be issued by the Clerk
of the District Court of said county,
directing you to show cause why
judgment should not be entered

tax, which will add additional costs. y
The sheriffs have no alternative in
the matter, the attorney general has
held, and if derelict in the discharge
of their duties are subject to removal
from office.
Failure to receive the notice does
not excuse non-payment of the tax.

STAGE Is ALL SET
FOR SAPIRO MEETING
GREAT CROWD EXPECTED TO
HEAR ADDRESS OF NOTED
ORGANIZER
FRIDAY, SEPT. IA, 1923
GENTLEMAN FAMOUS FOR HIS
ABILITY TO SOLVE VEXA-
TIOUS FARM PROBLEMS

every detail for Aaron Sapiro's
meeting at Junior High School Audi
forum, Sank Centre, on Sept. IA at
7:30 p. m. has been arranged" says
County Agent Huntemer chairman of
the inter-county committee which has
had in charge plans for what promis-
es to be the most important confer
ence of farmers in this section in re-
cent years.
"From every section of Sank Gen.
tire trade territory, we have reports
indicating a record audience" Mr..
Huntemer says. The meeting will
start promptly at 1880 p. m. There
is no doubt but that the capacity of
the Auditorium where the meeting is
to be held, will be taxed.
Mr.. Sapiro's address has aroused
unusual interest in this section. While
he is to talk on cooperative market
ing generally, he will deal specifically
with the potato industry, not only
| with respect to organizing growers
in this state; but in all commercial
producing sections Of the country
Mr.. Sapiro, this week, delivered
his address on cooperative marketing
and farm organizations before the
largest audience of s'dirt" farmers
that ever assembled on the State Fair
grounds.
Travelling with Mr.. Sapiro through
the potato section Of the state will be
S. G.. Rubinow in charge of the po-
tato organization campaign, J. F.
Reed, secretary of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation, Edward
Barr, secretary of the state COM
mittee, several members of the exc
cutive board, as well as a number of
special newspaper correspondents.
Nowhere in America" says P. W.
Huntemer, chairman of arrangements
for the Sank Centre meeting" is
there a man who is better qualified
to discuss the farm economic problem
from dollar and cents basis. He is
sought from coast to coast by leaders
who are interested in obtaining bet
ter prices for farm products, for the
system of cooperative marketing of
which he is the father, is the only
plan that ADMITTEDLY is sound, that
has produced results. Only a few
years ago the prune growers of Cal
ifornia were destitute. They actual
ly were in want. Sapiro's commodity
marketing plan put them on their
feet and made the business of grow
ing prunes one of the best in the
country. Whole cities in California
owe their present prosperity to COM
modify cooperative marketing"
Mr.. Sapiro's address is coming at
an especially important time, in view
of the agricultural depression pre-
vailing in the Northwest. Regardless
of whether farmers agree with his
plan of meeting the marketing prob
lem, all are urged to come out and
hear his explanation.
Essentially, Mr.. Sapiro's plan diff
ers from ordinary cooperation in
that his organizations operate on a
non-stock, non-profit sale and resale
basis, instead Of including consign-
ment and patronage dividend pro-
gram.
