PRESIDENT-E OF
MEXICO MURDERED
General AlvarO Obreg0n is Kill
ed by Assassin's Bullet Late
Tuesday Afternoon.

The Associated Press account of the
Staying of General Alvaro Obregon
confirms the radio reports of the
death which were received here late
yesterday. General Obregon, who
was recently elected as president of
Mexico to fill the vacancy caused by
the expiration of the term of Presi-
dent Gales was shot by an assassin,
who gave his name as Juan Escap-
ulario, as he was being feted at a
banquet in a restaurant near Mexico
City.
Press reports state that eye-wit-
nesses to the shooting, which took
place shortly after 2 o'clock Tuesday
said the slayer approached the table
at which the president-elect was sit
ting, and asked Governor Aaron
Saenz, of the state of Nuera Leon, If
he might show some pictures to Gen.
eral Obregon. He pretended to show
the pictures, under which he had con-
cealed a pistol, and fired several times
into the generals body.
The newspapers affirm that Gen.
eral Obregon died almost instantly.
He was shot by As caliber pistol
and, it is said, the bullets entered his
body from close range. He died while
being carried out to his automobile.
General Obregon was elected to
succeed President Gales July LIST, be-
ing the only candidate for election.
Had he lived he would have taken
oath of office December 1st.

Minnesota Farmers Will Pay
$1,000, 600 to Harvest Crops

dreds. This peaceful invasion Of the
state assures an ample supply of
farm labor for August in all sections
of the state.
A new element in this years har-
vest hand crew coming into Mime
sofa are several auto loads of Mexi-
cans, who have worked their way
northward during the year from old
Mexico through Texas, Oklahoma,
Kansas and Nebraska into Minneso-
ia, following the grain harvest all
the way.
These thousands of farm hands
will put money in circulation in ev-
cry village and town in the state, as
fast as they are paid their daily and
weekly wages.
Minnesota farmers will pay ont
more than two million dollars in harl
vest wages this year, according to an
estimate compiled by s. S. Jones of
st. Paul, executive secretary of the
state Farm Bureau.
With good crop prospects, farmers
are feeling more optimistic and dur
ing the past ten days there has oc-
Cured a sharp shift in the demand
for farm labor, which had been at a
standstill for more than thirty days.

Army of Harvest Hands Invade
This Territory as Harvest
ing of Crop Begins.

Minnesota's great annual harvest
season now is on and FROM all quar-
ters of the state reports 6f prospec-
tive big grain yields are being receiv-
ed at the headquarters of the Min
nesota Farm Bureau Federation at
ST. Paul. Unless rust and hail re-
peat the havoc caused last year at
this time, the 1928 Minnesota grain
yield will be a very large one.
During the past week an army of
harvest hands from the winter wheat
belt to the south began moving into
Minnesota, travelling mainly in col
legiate flivvers, equipped with barn
lanterns in place of the usual auto
lights.

Commercial Club Meets
in Ramsey State Park

Because the regular meeting night
of the Redwood Falls Commercial
Club came on Monday night, July 9,
chautauqua date, the meeting was
extended one week and held in Ram
sey State Park in the form of a pic
mic. Following the picnic supper a
business meeting was called in which
Rev. R. o. Aga addressed the IS peo-
pie present. Darkness prevented the
business going to any great length,
although the club petitioned the RAM
sey Park Board for lights for the
park and also to provide registra-
ton book for use in the park. A
discussion followed regarding the pos
sibilitity of stationing a night patrol
man in the park between the hours of
$50 and 11:00 o'clock. No action
was taken on this proposal. Senti-
ment seems to favor the proposal of
the night watchman, because of the
numerous tourists who visit the park
at all times during the summer
months

Annual School Election
Brings Out Small Vote

One of the smallest votes ever poll
ed at a Redwood Falls school elec-
tion was cast last night for the cleo
tion of Emil F. Buenger and the re-
election of DIR. J. w. Inglis to the
Board of Education. The two men
elected were the only filings for the
vacancies. A total of 80 votes were
cast. The financial report of the
School District was read at the close
of the voting. This report shows a
careful and conservative expenditure
of the moneys of the district and
that the schools are in a good finan-
cial condition. The report will be pub
lished in the next issue of the Gazette
and the Board of Education is hopeful
that it will receive the close and care
full attention it merits; for this reason
the report will be submitted through
the press. A regular business meet
ing followed the election.

65 OWNERS OF
CARS DELINQUENT
Checkup Shows Many Delin-
quent Licenses. Sheriff to
Collect July 9th.

There are 65 automobile license
fees unpaid in Redwood County ii
was announced today at Clerk
of Court Weldon's office. Notice has
been sent by the state to each of the
delinquent persons and warrants will
be given to Sheriff Kise on July 27.
Warrants are given the sheriff of
each county Is days after the notice
is sent out by the state. The warrant
is destroyed if the settlement is
made before the Is day period.
Few of the delinquent list pay the
regular fee and the fine for late pay
ment, as usually the autos are scrap
ped or have been sold.
Many of the 65 delinquent cars are
owned by people who have moved out
of the state without notifying Mike
Holm, secretary of state, of the re-
moval. The 65 delinquents' machines
were registered and the license fees
paid in 1927.
Failure to- pay the fees and the ad-
ditional fine on the machines makes
them the property of the state.
Other counties Of the state are TAX
ing similar steps to those in Redwood
county and several have started issu-
ance of the warrants.

County Agent Sheldon Reports
Many Fields of Weed. Use
Tanning Mill More.

The mustard family or tribe in the
great weed oligarchy of this country
should not be regarded lightly. The
tribe has many branches and is known
by many names. Some of its men,
bers are more troublesome than 9TH
ers, but all are gross feeders on the
soil constituents which field crops
need and therefore reduce the farm
er's yields and increase costs of pro-
duction.
Like many another weed, mustard
is not. native but came from for
eign shore. 1t is an annual and pro-
pagates only by seed, consequently it
is not so difficult to subdue as some
other plants in the weed world. But
it has great vitality for all that, fpr
its little seeds mature sufficiently to
terminate three weeks after bloom
ing time or they may lie in the ground
a dozen years or more and still sur
yive and "bring forth"
Mustard is having one of its good
wears in Minnesota, that is good
from the. family's point of view.

Merchants to Sponsor
Series of Band Concerts

Owing to the fact that Redwood
Falls has not had a band of its own
for some time, the local merchants
have taken it upon themselves to give
the citizens of the surrounding ter
ritory, entertainment in the form OF
a series of, Saturday night band con-
certs on the streets of the city. The
first concert of the series will be
held next Saturday night, July 21st
at the Court House lawn. The mu-
sic will be furnished by the famous
Sleepy Eye High School band of 35
pieces and will begin promptly at
800 o'clock sharp. Bands from New
Ulm and other neighboring towns will
be heard here in the future, to COM
plete the series of concerts, of which
there will be at least three. The
schedule for future concerts will be
arranged and published at a later
date.

Mustard Making its Presence Felt
in ReduUood. County this Year

County Agent Lynn Sheldon reports
that there is as much or more must
ard in the fields of Redwood County
as there has been in years. This may
be explained in part by the seasonal
conditions and in part by the fact
that the acreage to flax has been
largely increase, he says.
Just as Mr.. Sheldon points out,
one of the most effective ways to
keep mustard out of fields is to use
the tanning mill more. The seeds are
so small that they are difficult to
separate from clover seed and some
of the grain, but thorough tanning
should be practiced, more generally
and will be of great help. As far
as possible plants should be prevent
ed from seeding. This is a vital point
in stamping out the pest.
Rotation of the following crops will
be decided help in keeping mustard
in check: Cd corn, well titled; ~
grain with stubble pastured or disc
ed; (3) grains, and timothy and clov-
er seedlings; t4) hay; (5) pasture or
hay. After the grain has been cut,
the soil should be worked well with
the disc or spring tooth harrow to

MAKESHIFT auto
TAGS NOT LEGAL
Use of Dealers Plates to Avoid
Paying Full Fee Is Con-
trary to Law.

During the month of July there
are more License Applied for" and
other home made auto tags than in
any other month. The reason, ac-
cording to a State Highway depart
ment bulletin, is that after August 1
the license rate is only one-half the
regular rate, and many people who
buy cars this month want to drive
them at once but postpone buying a
license until August.
There is only one legal substitute
for the regular license plates and
that is the certificate provided by
law for temporary operation of car
while waiting for the license plates.
This can be issued only by duly auth
orized deputies of the Secretary of
State, upon forms provided for that
purpose, and only after the license
fee has been paid and forwarded to
the Secretary of States office. Home
made signs, affidavits, or permits is
sued by unauthorized persons have no
standing in law.
Abuse of the dealers license priv
ilege is also more frequent in July
than any other month. Dealers plates
can be used legally only on machines
being demonstrated to prospective
customers, or while moving machines
from the factory to the dealers place
of business or warehouse. Use of
dealers plates by car owners this
month to get the benefit of the half
rate August l is contrary to law.

drifted into the seventh with the count
2 and 2. Springfield scored a run in
it's half for comparatively safe
lead. Buchanan up for the locals,
looked at the last one. Jaehning,
who had been pitching good ball,
slapped the second ball thrown for an
easy double, which was stretched to
a triple. On the over throw at third
Jaehning scored to even the count.
Cuff flied out, making two away.
Tom Finn and Helm both received
free tickets. Erlandson, who had not
had a hit so far in the game, swung
at the first one and delivered on the
second pitch with his timely double
clinching the contest.
The game was played as a result
of the Springfield team using two
