TO WALT0NITES
ONE HUNDRED MEMBERS OF
ISAAk WALTON LEAGUE
GATHER TO HEAR PROM
INENT SPEAKER.
FIND SITUATION SERIOUS
GAME AND FISH DEPARTMENT
ASKS HELP OF EVERYONE
IN THE CONSERVATION
OF WILD GAME.

At gathering of nearly 100 Isaak
Waltonites from Redwood Falls and
community Honorable J. F. Gould,
State Game and Fish Commissioner,
delivered the principle address at the
meeting of the Redwood Falls Isaak
Walton League Monday night, May
18th, at the Armory. Other speakers
were Senator Claude Mckenzie, Gay
lord, State President of the League;
Senator James Hall, MARSHALL; B.
B. Gislason, Minneota, and DR.. A. w.
Ross and DR.. w. A. Brand of Redwood
Falls.
Commissioner Gould started his ad-
dress by stressing heavily the neces-
sity of the Isaak Walton League as a
help for the conservation OF game
and fish and Minnesota's north woods
which have been seriously depleted in
the past few years through forest
fires and the lumber companies. Mr..
Gould intimated that the Isaak Wal
ton League of Redwood Falls, with it's
AT members, lacks $50 members of
what it should have for a community
having the great number of sports
men that there are here
''The State Game and Fish Depart
ment," said the speaker, sis being
placed on an efficiency basis, free
from politics. This must be done if
we wish to preserve the ragged rem
nant we have left" Concerning
pheasants and upland game birds, Mr.
Gould stated that the Department is
badly in need of more land, more
money and more equipment before the
orders for these birds and the eggs
can be filled. Applications for both
eggs and birds come in so fast that
only one-tenth of the demand can be
filled this year. In another year or
two, with the necessities added, the
department will be able to fill most
of the orders.
The State Fish Hatchery will be
able to supply the demand for all fish
with the exception of bass, crappies
and sunfish. These three species cam
not be easily artificially propagated
and therefore the orders for them
cannot be filled as readily for other
kinds of fish. "Due to dynamiting
spearing and seining illegally" said
Commissioner Gould, "the adult fish
are hard to get for Matching and if
care isn't taken in this it will be just
a matter Of only seven to ten years
before the people of Minnesota will
be entirely without good fishing"

FOR REELECTION

Although there are still several
days of grace before the final closing
of the lists of. political candidates it
is believed that practically all the
Redwood County aspirants have now
paid their little fee to County Audi
tor Larson and are accepted as legiti-
mate candidates for the June prim-
aries. The last day Cor filing for
county offices is June first.
Several of the present county Of
ficials 'got busy" last week and filed
for reelection. These included L. p.
Larson, County Auditor, A. P. Falk,
County Treasurer, A. d. McRae, Reg
lister OF Deeds and Miss Theo Jensen,
Superintendent of County Schools.
These four constitute group of as
fine and efficient officials as any coun-
ty need ever wish to have and their
many friends throughout the County
will undoubtedly see that they con-
tinue to serve. The only one having
opposition thus far is Mr.. McRae
who is opposed by Otto Stassen of
New Avon township who filed last
week. This is Mr.. Stassen's first
venture into county politics. Tues
day of this week Commissioner John
Ahrends of the Second Commissioners
District filed.
Previous to last week County
Attorney George A. Barnes and
Sheriff L. j. Kise had filed for re-
election to their respective. offices.
Mr.. Barnes is opposed by Attorney
Leon H. Brown and Mr.. Kise by T.
G. Olson, both residents of Redwood
Falls. L. T. Andrew of Walnut
Grove and DIR. F. H. Aldrich of Bel
view have filed as representatives of
Redwood County in the House and
Mike Kramer of Seaforth has filed
at Representative-at-Larga from
Brown and Redwood Counties.
Following is a complete list of
candidates who have filed with the
secretary of state as primary candi-
dates for state, congressional and
judicial offices. The voters will make
nominations at the primary election
on June 21. Where they are party
designations, one candidate will be
nominated in each party. Where the
offices are filled without party desig-
nation, two candidates will be NOM
mated. In case where party -desig-

filed under a party label, that candi-

GOVERNOR CHRISTIANSOlt STRIKES
Constructive NOTE AT fARIbAuLT
Opening Address in Campaign for Republican Nomination Empha
sizes Benefits Of State Reorganization Plan, and
Conservation Of States Resources.

Protection of the resources of Min
nesota-of her natural resources
through conservation and of her tax
resources through economy in gov
ernment-was the dominant note Of
the address delivered by Governor
Theodore Christianson at Faribault
Wednesday, May IL, in opening. his
campaign for the Republican nomina-
tion for Governor. He reviewed pro-
gress made along these lines in the
sixteen months he has been at the
head of the State government.

reelection" said Governor Christian

boss and promise obedience to no po-
litical group. l recognize no fealty
but to the people of the state.
/ believe that campaign promises
are made to be kept. Two years ago
| told the people that if they elected
me Governor, would use the power
of the Governors office to check the
mounting cost of government. That
promise has been kept. I now tell
them that if they re-elect me, L will
continue the job 1 have started. That
promise, too, will be kept.
The kind of economy I stand for
the only kind of economy l believe in
lis economy that needs no adjective
or qualification.
| submit that there is need for that
kind of economy, and more OF it. The
expenditures of government, curtailed
at Washington, have continued to in
crease in most Of the States. Gov
ernmental cost payments of the States
increased from less than. half a bill
lion dollars in 1915 to more than a
billion and half in 1924; in other
words, the. cost of State Government
in the United States more than treb-
led in nine years.
There have been corresponding in
creases in local expenditures. Coun-
ties. townships, cities, villages and
school districts have piled expendi-
ture upon expenditure, until the bur-
den is threatening to crush American
industry and enterprise. The total
tax bill of America, which was ST.
00O,000,O00 in 1928, was $1,000, ,0OO, 900
in 1923. In ten years the burden al
most quadrupled. In 1913 the taxes
paid by the American people repres-
ented ga per cent of their income; in
1928, 11.5 per cent.
And these figures, startling as they
are, do not tell the whole story. For
after taxing to the limit, the various
units of government borrowed. In
1923, they issued bonds in an aggre-
gate amount of $4,000, ,00O,0O0 bring

strokes and turn in his card with the
estimated yardage.
The Whites turned in eighteen
cards for total of Al, ,7O9 yards or
an average of 2,317 yards per man.
The captain of the Reds estimated
that about twenty-one men played
and only twelve turned in their cards
so that, because of the lack Gf cards
turned in, the Captain conceded de-
feat.
The two best scores were made by
DR.. j. w. Anderson and HI. e. Hoff-
ert, both of the Whites. Both men
came within less than one yard Of

long drive he wound up and missed
the ball entirely.

TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

Redwood Falls has never seen a
May Fete which exceeded or even
equalled in beauty the. one given on
the court house lawn Tuesday after
noon before throngs of parents and
friends of the pupils of the senior
and junior high schools and the grade
schools of the city. A perfect setting
for such a presentation was offered
by the shadow-flecked lawn, shaded
by the large trees which are just now
in all the freshness of early spring,
and with just enough sunshine to
bring out the myriad oolors in the
costumes worn by the nymphs, dryads,
birds, butterflies and fairy folk who
crowned the queens and welcomed the
summertime with. dance and music.
The crowning of the three queens
was an impressive feature of the first
part of the program following the pro-
cessional. Miss Gertrude Daskam
was the Queen of the Seniors, Miss
Mercedes Lauterbaeh of the Junior
high and Gertrude Smith was the
choice of the grade school pupils Each
queen held picturesque court with her
knights and ladies about her and the
three thrones formed an imposing
background for the revelers called
to entertain their queens.

Seventeen" to
Entertain Tonight

Anyone who has ever. had to
put up with lovesick kid of
seventeen years incoming about
the house and making a gener-
al nuisance of himself, will be
interested in the Booth Tark-
ington play Seventeen" This
is to be presented as the an
nual class play Of the high
school and the cast is wholly sell
ected from the members of the
Class of '26. Even if anyone
has never been inflicted with
such family disease, the eter-.
nal appeal which youth of both
sexes makes to human beings
of all ages will make everyone
anxious to see "Willie" in Dads
dress suit, and the family 'tat-.
tier" small Jane, who stirs up
more or less of mess. These
two, with their pals and sweet
hearts make a lot of real fun
for the onlookers. The title
role is played by William Wes-
ter who is, typically Seventeen
and can't help it! The other
roles have been as admirably
cast by Miss Leila Atcherson,
the director. This is the play
which friends of the Senior
Class are invited to attend to-
night in the auditorium of the
Lincoln School.

WORKER CORRESPONDENCE FROM THE SOVIET
Greetings from Russian Peasants

nEAR COMRADES, The idea that
- has been smouldering in my head
about getting in touch with you far
off toilers, has urged me to write this
letter. l would have liked to be able
to greet you personally comrades, be-
fore the courageous struggle for inn
proving the situation of the workers
and peasants that faces you, but the
great distance separating us does not
permit this and must confine myself
to this letter
l am an advanced peasant and am
engaged on social work in my rural
district. want to share my experience
with you, to tell you how we work,
what interests us, how our youth live
and how the peasantry work.
Every peasant who can read and
write in our district in village cor
respondent. Nearly all Of our peasants
up to so years of age will soon be able
to read and write. The old traces of
the former order win soon completely
disappear from our midst IN this coun-
try Of freedom. The peasants seem to
have become adapted to the new life.
After everything they have lived thru,
they are now building up a new life
in new conditions. Now the peasants
in our district have all gone over to
the six-feld tillage system with a sub
crop Of clover. They have organized
collective agricultural artels for grow
ing cabbages which they sold last
autumn and used the money for pur-
chasing agricultural machinery ne
cessary for farming. OF course, It is
rather difficult at present to run things
during a time when the old order is
being broken down and the new order
constructed, but what is difficult for
one is easy for a group.
Not far away from us is the Kol-
mana settlement where our comrades,
by collective cultivation of their land,
have received a tractor in reward. If
YOU read our papers, especially the
peasant papers, you will observe that
we always write about our work and
errors, and we are endeavouring to
outlive the old order and to build up
new life. They received this tractor
gratis for Improved agricultural meth
DDS. Such prizes are possible because
our peasant comrades whom we elect
to the Soviets know the needs of the
peasantry and look after us. We have
now already got dairy farming artels
which keep cows and send the milk
to the towns for sale. A large number
Of factories have been opened up quite
near to our locality which employ
poor peasants before any other work
ers. Powerful feelers are already
