Auditor Calls on SOrlie Sup
pOrters to Prove Their
Claims Of Economy

Declaring that lit is an easy mat
ter to cut the tax levy when there
is surplus in the state treasury"
State Auditor John Stccn, in Il state
mcnt today. challenged supporters of
Governor A. G.. Sorlie to prove that
he has given the state an economy
administration and has cut the tax
levy
"Thc Nonpartisan platform points
with pride to "A tax reduction by the
Sorlic administration in 1929 of
100000" said Stecn. eff this were
true it would be "A fine accomplish
mcnt, but let us look ut the facts.
The state Legislature and the COVER
nor are the authority for all cxpcndi-
lures. The 1928 session, in the Mes
tos administration, appropriated II
total sum Of $7.2s2. 1850.
"Thc 1925 session, in the Sorlic al.
ministration. appropriated S7,2S7,-
33I.5s or Si.dSG.OS more than the 1923
session. No saving there.
How Money il Raised
"Thc state board Of equalization
each year makes Il tax levy, which.
together with the fees and other rev
enuc should be sufficient to meet the
amounts appropriated by the lcgisla-
'""" The appropriation of S7.2a2.-
S48.50 by the 1923 session was raised
as follows:
l923-Gencral Taxes S2O4S.6I2 90
Fees and other revenue l,3i5,000.OO
1g24--Gencral taxes ~ $3.50. 1875 90
Fees and other revenue ,4G2, 234.O0
Total raised for two years 1885, III 90
Less amount appropriated 7,2S2.S4S.50
Surplus in state treasury 253, 1920
1925 tax levy .... 2,277, 10000
Fees, estimated by tax
commissioner ....., 49, 900 90
Total for year ..... S3,6ll, 10000
This, Stccn points out, lis $2S,947.-
- less than half of the S7,2S7, 334 .5s
appropriated by the 1925 lSorliel
session. 1t appears to be an easy
matter to cut the tax levy when
there is Il surplus in the state treas
ury To the Nestos administration
is due the credit for the surplus. If
Sorlie should persist in the policy Of
levying less taxes than are sufficient
to meet the amount appropriated by
the state legislature, instead of leav-
ing surplus, there will be Il deficit
in the treasury which will have to be
met by future tax levies. So, after
all, this bOasted tax reduction is only
temporary staving off of bills which
have to be paid"

was called in the last minute of the
game. Both shots were made by
Sank Centre and Osakis, giving to-
tai. score of 1910 where it remained
to the end of the game.
The victory was a well earned one
for the Sank Centre boys as they
have been working under difficulties
from the beginning of. the season
They have brought themselves out
of a slough Of dependency and
showed the town what they are really
made of. - The "never say die" spirit
has been evidenced in the team from
the first game of the season, it has
never thrown up its hands and said
call is lost" A team of this calibre
should be given the unanimous
support of town and school. A win
ming team with plenty of fight is Of
ten seen but team that is a good
loser is very rare.
3, The, outstanding feature Of the
game was the heady offensive and
defensive work combined put up by
McDermond and Nelson. They play
ed the ball every second. McDer-
mond played the best defensive game
he has so far this season. "Swede'
Nelson was literally found every
where the basket ball travelled. 1t is
the first game of the year for him at
center berth, thus his wind was a lit
tie short. In McDermond, Osakis found
the "scoring" McDermond of last
year. Janecke, Hines, pierson played

SPORTS
Sank Centre 1e-Osakis 10

The Sank Centre High School boys
with recognized team and plenty
of scrap behind it, came through
with a brilliant victory over Osakis
High School last Friday. The game
furnished thrills from the starting
whistle to the final second.
There were four changes in the
lineup, each of which seemed for the
better. Nelson was taken from guard
to center and Janecke who formerly
played forward was placed at station
airy guard. Pierson was taken from
center and placed in the running
guard position and Hines who form
erly played running guard was shift
ed to forward. McDermond, the
captain, is the only man who re-
tanned his ,old position: This lineup
seemed strengthen both the offense
and defense.
TIL first quarter opened with its
usual loose play on the part of both
teams but as the game progressed
the teams gradually found themselves
and real basketball showed up. Sank
Centre had several chances under the
basket but was unable to make any
of them good. The first few minutes
were scoreless. Finally, Palar of
Osakis dropped in one from the side
and his feat was repeated by Ander-
son minute later. McDermond call

chance to regain it's feet. Sank
Cntre then held them scoreless the
remaining part of tn quarter, while
McDermond AIDED a free throw. The
first quarter was divided about even

Sank Centre VS. Alexandria s
Sank Centre will play Alexandria
on the Sank Centre floor this coming
Friday. Alexandria has a very strong
team and ranks among the best of
the district. A very good display of
basketball should be put up by both
teams. Sank Centre should score an
other victory with its new combina-
ton. George, formerly the coach of
the fast Buffalo combination who
were runners-up in the state tour
ney, is coaching the Alexandria team
this year. Everyone turn out and
back the team, help them put over
anther victory.
The spirit of hatred that existed
between Sank Centre and Osakis
seems to be passing away and
the idea of clean sports taking it's
place. At the Sank Centre Osakis
game, not once during the entire
game was there any of the "booing''
or 'shissing' which has been prom
inent in the former games.
The same spirit was carried by
the players on both sides as there
was no "dirty" work during the
game. To the joy of the basket
