had $50 less employees on March 1,
1882, as compared with the same
time two years ago. Minnesota is
collecting $3,212.00O less taxes for
state purposes under the Olson adj
ministration than in the two years
previously. The state mill rate went
up little on account of smaller val
uation and tax delinquency. The
speaker analysed it thus: A $500 tax
is paid by three men with $1.OO each.
Next year the tax is reduced to $3.50,
but only two of the men pay taxes
so they are obliged to pay SIPS each.
The speaker went on to show up the
personal property and moneys and
credits taxes that are paid by some
of the wealthy men of the state, some
of whom are officers of tax relief
associations. He said they should
have relief" all right and there is
a reason for them opposing Governor
Olson for reelection because of his
digging into all this tax lodging
for years.
Editor Creel with the assistance of
two men from the audience gave
demonstration of how the system
works out between the farmer, the
laborer and the financier, with pro-
ducing, buying, selling, financing, etc.
This must be seen and heard to be
appreciated. Mr. Creel will speak in
Pine county again on Oct. q and %,
when there will be an opportunity to
see and hear this man who is not
only an able writer, but good speak
er, excellent impersonator and a stu
dent of economics.

HINCKLEY SERVICE
MAN HEADS COUNTY
OLSON VOLUNTEERS

A Pine County Governor Olson Vol
unteer Committee has been organized
with George L. Spaniel of Hinckley,
as the chairman. This organization
is for people from all political parties
who desire to see Governor Olson re-
elected, and any volunteer workers
can take the matter up with Mr.. Span
iSl about distributing cards and liter
ature, or they can also get supplies
from James Tyre of Sandstone, who is
vice chairman for five counties in
the Olson state volunteer camp.
Mr.. Spaniel who is Great Northern
towerman at Hinckley, has resided
there with his family the past three
years and as a former service man
is popular with the Legionnaires. In
accepting the Craftsmanship of Pine
county for the Governor Olson Vol
unteer Committee, Mr.. Spaniel made
the following statement:
Il am supporting Governor Floyd
B. Olson for reelection because he
is an able and fearless man who
understands the needs of the people;
because he is advocating legislation
to give a square deal to the eX-service
man; and because he has a program
for the benefit of the farmer and
small home owner in his income tax
proposal which will mean the shifting
of considerable tax burden from the
shoulders of the average man to those
better able to pay"

SOUTH OF BRUNO

Friday morning. Oct. IA, a fire of
unknown origin started near the big
pine grove south of the Fred Saastad
farm. A southwest wind carried the
fire on several hundred acres before
it was brought under control by twen-
ty farmers and Mr.. Krause, fire ward
en- in this district. Many farms were
threatened but towards evening the
wind turned from the north. This
gave the fighters a better chance and
about midnight they had it under con-
troll.

AN OPEN LETTER ON
MOTHERS PENSIONS

There has been much said and some
printed about mothers pensions, some
of which conforms to the law and
some of which is misleading.
Chapter 355 of the Laws of Minne-
sofa for the year 1925 is the law at
the present time covering the petition
and hearing of mothers pension cases
and provides:
That all children under the age of
sixteen years who are regularly at
tending school are to be considered
dependents on the finding of certain
facts as set out in said law. 1t makes
no difference whether they are attend
ing common school or high school, so
long as they are attending any recOg-
nzed school and are under the age
of sixteen years they come within the
law.
The procedure in granting mothers
pensions in this county is as follows:
When an application is made for
mothers pension the petition is first
referred to the county attorney for
his opinion as to form and legality
thereof, and on return of the petition
if same is found in proper form, the
time and place for a hearing thereon
is fixed Notice of the hearing is
given the county attorney and copy
of the notice is mailed to the county
commissioner of the district of which
the mother is a resident as provided
nv said Chan Az Laws Of 1Q25 mart
of which reads as follows: PIP. such
notice shall be given at least one
week before the date of hearing on
such application, shall be in writing
and may be given by mail. 1t shall
be the duty of the county attorney,
and of such county commissioner, to
investigate the financial condition and
status of such child or children and
that of the mother. The county at
torney shall appear at the time and
place specified for such hearing and
participate therein and present to the
court such evidence or Information as
may be within his knowledge relevant
to the matters on which the making
of such findings depends, and such
county commissioner shall report to
the court any information he may
have relating to the application, and
make such recommendation as he
deems proper
At the time of the hearing the
county attorney questions the mother
very closely as to her financial condi-
