BROWN COUNTY CHOSEN AS
FIRST IN WHICH TO FILE $50
PAGE PRINTED DOCUMENT
FOR RECORD.

The largest mortgage registry tax
ever paid in Brown county was col
lected by County Treasurer Henry j..
Berg, Saturday, in connection with
the filing for record in the office OF
Register of Deeds Fred Christensen
of a $20,0OO,000 mortgage given by
the Interstate Power Co. to the Chase
National bank of New York City and
George A. Kinney, trustees. The de-
benture covers real estate, transmits
sion lines, gas mains, and other per-
sonal property of the Interstate COM
pany in the states of Minnesota, So.
Dakota, Iowa, and Oklahoma, having
an aggregate valuation of more than
$27,OOO,OOO.
The value of the company's proper
ty in Minnesota, covered by the mort
gage, is estimated at $6,O70,000, and
the mortgage registry tax on this
amount was $15,175. Inasmuch as
Brown county was chosen as the first
county in all of the states, in which
the mortgage must be recorded, the
entire amount of the Minnesota regis
try tax was collected by Mr.. Berg,
who apportioned the total among the
SO counties in this state, where the
company owns property covered by
the debenture. The valuation OF
property in Brown county, upon
which the mortgage, and, consequent
ly, the registry tax, applies, aggre-
gates $212,450, and Brown county's
share of the tax is S546.22.
The mortgage is a voluminous
document, containing 260 printed
pages, and will require several days
of steady work to copy it into the
mortgage record at the register of
deeds office, as required by law. The
printed document itself has been
placed on file as chattel mortgage
record. 1t is the second largest
mortgage ever filed for record in Mr..
Christiansen's office, so far as the
amount is concerned. In August,
1921, the record of a $165, 100000
mortgage, given by the Chicago &
North Western Railway Co. to a
New York bank, was entered in the
registrar of deeds records at New
Ulm.
The distribution of the mortgage
registry tax collected by County
Treasurer Berg on the Interstate
Power Co. debenture, to the 33 coun-
ties in Minnesota, was made on the
following basis: Beltrami, $2,109.33;
Brown, $546.22; Carver, $546.30;
Cass, $6O.7O; Clay, $15.1s; Clear
water, $91.05; Cottonwood, $212.45;
Faribault, $728.4O; Freeborn, ST.
943.95; Fillmore, $2579s; Hennepin,
$45.53; Jackson, $75.88; Kittson,
$3642O; LIE Sueur, $l36.5S; Marshall,
$3O3.50; Martin, $121.40; Mower,
$72s.4O; Murray, $364.20; Norman,
$151.75; Mobiles, $227.63; Olmsted,
$622.18; Pennington, $45.53; Polk,
$2,989.48; Red Lake, s1O6.23; Red
wood, $166.93; Rock, $166.93; Roseau,
$6O.7O; Scott, $60.7O; Steele, $591.S3;
Wabasha, $3O.35; Watonwan, $91.05;
Winona, $197.28, and Wright, $17.18.
Warrants for these amounts were
mailed to the respective county audi
tors by County Auditor Louis G. Vo-
gel, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. County Jour-
