Chain Letters Again!

About every once in SO often. or
oftener, Redwood Falls along with
other cities of the United States, suf-
fers from flood of chain letters of
enc sort or another. The present
sort is an insipid, stupid sort of a
prayer which is being sent to many
residents with the request that they
send it on to a stipulated number of
their friends. Of course, running true
to form, all these communications are
unsigned which proves their un-
worthiness if nothing else does. In
addition to being superstitious and
weak form of prayer, such communl-
cations are absolutely and positively
prohibited by law, and the postmaster
is required to investigate and destroy
every letter which he suspects of be-
ing one of a chain for any purpose
whatever. With this in mind Fost-
master Fl. W. Ward requests that all
persons receiving such letters simply
place them carefully and tenderly in
the waste baskets, thus breaking the
chain and helping to stop this silly
infringement Of the law.

among his listeners.
Mr.. Race left with his hearers the
one message that the Constitution OF
the United States is worth fighting
for and that it is the duty of every
red-blooded American citizen to fight
for it, if necessary. He pointed out
forcefully that we are living in the
best age in history and it is up to us
to- take advantage of that age. Lloyd
George in one of his talks during his
recent tour of America, stated that
the one thing that amazed him most
was the wonderful faith in American
manhood and American Ideals.
Mr.. Race is a speaker Of some elo-
auence and his arguments were force
full and convincing. He delighted his
hearers with his command cf rhetoric
and left them message both inspir-
ing and uplifting.
The meeting was attended by a
somewhat larger crowd than usually
attends and refreshments were served
during the social hour.

The 1923 statement shows that in
retiring ditch bonds, interest On same
and expense of maintaining the ditch
es the county spent $474 ,922.66. This
is the largest expense item on Auditor
Larson's ledger The next largest
transaction, as summed up, is the pay
ments which the county collected and
turned over to the us school districts
which t0taled the princely sum of
$41e ,20.5S.
57,141.79 was spent On roads and
bridges. This was spent on the thir
teen state roads, also principal and
interest on bonds, road machinery,
engineering, and the other road ex-
penses which can not be charged to
the Numbered state roads. This item
includes the road aid money on the
county township roads.
Townships, cities and villages tap
ped the county treasury for drafts
amounting to $500, 1880. This is
the sum of the general revenue which
twenty-six townships fifteen villages
and one city in Redwood County re-
quires to run their local governments.
1t might be said in passing that the
sum is only a very slight reduction
from the previous year while the
school districts spent an increased
sum indicating that while taxpayers
desire to reduce taxes they are not
setting the example by reducing ex-
penditures right under their thumb,
and it is the local and school taxes
which make up by far the larger end
of the tax burden.
