P.W.A. ARRANGING ACCEPTANCE
CITY Water and LIGHT BONDS
Telegram Received Monday Informs City Council That the
Papers Follow in Connection With the Government Loan
of $4,000 Applied For.

A message received from Washington
on Monday was very favorable toward:
the securing of the necessary funds fol
the completion of the water and light
plant and that the Public Works Ad-
ministration was sending along the
necessary papers to be completed as pei
the demand of the PWA.
The message also called for the en-
gaging of recognized bond firm tt
pass on the issue of bonds; the cleo
ton therefor; the assurance of re-
payment and such other matters de-
manded by the government and which
preliminaries must be performed be-
fore money is forthcoming. This will
he attended to as soon as the papers
arrive which will be sent out from
WaShinton not later than the goth OF
this month, according to advices re-
ceived.
The fact that necessary documents
will be sent out for the completion OF
the contract With the PWA would IN
dictate that the matter is being looked
into and that favorable results can be
expected providing necessary infor-
nation is forthcoming.
Until the arrival of the documents
nothing can be done in the matter
Upon their arrival, however, the City
Council will call special meeting and
matters called for will be acted on.
The prospects are that the water and
light system which is now two-thirds
completed will be finished this summer.
The plans and specifications have been
prepared for some time by expert en-
gineers in conjunction with the City
Engineer and it is hoped that this work
already done will be acceptable to the
Washington authorities.

The Federal grand jury
delved into things deep in
North Dakota and came forth
with an Indictment against nine
persons, among which is the
governor, on charges of forcing
political contributions from
Federal employees in the state.
Investigations showed that
workers were forced to con-
tribute to the support of The
Leader, administration news
paper. North Dakota seems to
have gone haywire entirely and
is probably the only state in the
Union that is frowning on
political contributions-at least
it is the only state that is testing
out the legality of a purely
''bread and butter" practice
that has kept the boss and his
employees on the job in the sew
eral subdivisions of states in all
parts of the Union.

The Stearns County Pub

ing at Albany, Minnesota, last
week endorsed the candidacy
of Fred Schilplin of St. Cloud,
publisher of the st. Cloud
Times, for governor on the
Democratic ticket. Fred Schil-

token would make a good gov

On This
Occasion
Just q few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial.

Listen to this appropos bon
mot from the address of
Maurice Hindus, born in Russia,
and one of it's friendly critics.
He said "The poorest person in
America has a better meal,
better clothing and a better bed
than the richest in Russia" If
such a statement had been
made by one not having spent
his life in Russia, it would be
hard to believe. Yet the
country, especially Minnesota,
has many who are trying to
exchange our methods of living
to those enforced by the Soviets
in Russia.
1t was entirely unnecessary
for Governor Olson to attempt
an explanation of the crimson
hued platform upon which he
is supposed to stand at the
coming election. The platform
was printed in every paper of
the state and many of them
commented on the text as
printed. The governors radio
address in justification and in
explanation of some of the
planks was we'll put, but, the
fact nevertheless remains that
the party of which he is the
head made it quite clear that
Minnesota is to be Sovietized.

What Dya Mean @Royalty2"

that go endlessly whenever and wherever the drill

Oil strike stimulate conversation In hotel obbies on
street corners and along country roads converge
into huddes and their voices rise in animated chatter
The ''leasehounds" know the meaning of oil royalty
do the other initiated of oil fields and too do the
property hereabout for they have been learning
about such things since the first farmer in that par
ticular granted mineral lease to the driler Of
the well
Word of many meanings, the term royalty,
applied to OIL is described standard dictionaries
"a share of the product profit reserved by the
owner for permitting another to the property.
The sovereignty -dvineright quality Of the word is
accounted for in the fact that under English law
certain percentage of the produce of royal mines or
lands reserved for the crown.
In its American usage, a royalty represents con-
tnuing and perpetual interest In products profits
royalty interest in OH well is Of value long as
the wen produces ell Royalty on book, product OF
authors mind continues as long volumes Of the
book sold; and the is true Of other patented
copyrighted articles subject to contractua agree
ments.
The proportion of the value of oil produced from
as royalty is the amount set forth in the written and
property that reserved for the of the land
recorded instrument by which the lease is conveyed By
custom that amount is 18 Of all the oil produced It
is the practice for the royalty be paid for
his share Of oil by the pipe line company which pur

statements are prepared showing the amount Of oil
purchased from all properties. These companies have
been given notices Of all transfers of royalties, and
checks for pro rata amounts issued to the proper
owners at the prevailing market prices for oil
theoretically, royalty into existence with the
conveyance by the property owner OF the original
mineral lease and from that time may be bartered
though resulting values entirely uncertain. When
the leasing transaction is contaminated it is the privl
ege Of the property to sell to others all any
portion of his reserved one-eighth royalty. He may
convey one-hah 70 his royalty onesxteenth Of what
production follows the drilling of wells, he may
divide his holdings into royalty BY such
method, the original holder of royalty may convey to
others royalty any number of royalty

Oil produced the lease If the yield from q
hundredacre tract should be 100000 barrels Of OIL
the royalty would amount to 250OO0 barrels and one
royalty acre would have the value of $500 barrels.
Transactions in royalties are handled in the same
fashion that real property is handled When the
of royalty sells any portion of it, he executes
mineral deed Of conveyance to the purchaser who flies
the instrument for record with the proper county
official In the event that production of oil follows
proper transfer orders filed with the producers and
purchases that proper distribution Of the

with the costs labors Of production and distribution
of the OIL Out of seven-eghths Of the oil the produc
ing interests pay all costs of drilling and operation,
and the remaining oneeighth is paid to the original
to those persons to whom portions have been
decided.
