Paraguay is seeking to destroy. Bo-
hvia wanted the Chaco as q corridor
to the Atlantic; decimated Paraguay
again went wearily to war to defend
what she considered her own.
That fight continued in a desultory.
but. nevertheless, savage manner, for
so years between military outposts of
the two nations. Although both coun-
tries had appealed to the United
States to settle their boundary and,
in 1873, President Hayes had handed
down a decision dividing the Chaco
between them, each side claimed the
other had encroached upon its ter
ritory.
Used Foreign Officers.
Following the World War each ma
ton intrusted the training of its army
to foreign military experts. The Bo-
livians were trained by Germans and
the Paraguayans by French.
Late In 1928 the Bolivians captured
Fort Boqueron and the Paraguayans
took Fort Vanguardia almost stimuli
taneously. Each side claimed its at
tack had been in retaliation.
Since then the war has ragged on
doggedly without much advantage to
either side, although in recent months
Paraguay has beaten the Bolivian
forces back to approximately the line
occupied in 1928.
The present major offensive at Fort
Ballivian, combined with the threats
of world powers to cut of further
armaments, may complete the bloody
history of the Chaco.

til November 1. Likewise if the
real estate tax Is delinquent No
vember ], the usual per cent pen
atty goes into effect.
While the payment of personal
property taxes in two installments
and the payment of real estate
taxes quarterly may not make the
taxes any easier to pay, it will,
however, not necessitate so large
an expenditure for this purpose at
one time as has been the situation
in the past. The quarterly payment
OF real estate taxes went into effect
last year but the law was not
changed until so late that the first
quarter was over. This year all
residents may avail themselves of
the quarterly system should they
so desire.
Taxpayers are reminded, how
ever, that personal property taxes
that amount to less than $40 must
be paid at one time. Only when
the taxes are greater than $40 Is
the taxpayer allowed to divide the
payment into two equal parts

Council Proceedings
Regular Meeting

Regular monthly meeting of the
Common Council of the City of
Sank Centre held Wednesday, Jan
uary Bird, 1884 at 7:30 P. M. with all
the members present.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved.
The Council asked for bids on a
load of coal for the Jail and City
Hall mad four bids were received,
viz: Steiner Lumber Company.
Lampert Lumber Company, Farm
ers Shipping Association and B. o.
Vogel. Each bid $8.25 for the better
coal and $500 for the other grade;
the bid for the first car was award
ed to the Lampert Lumber Co. at
$s.25.
d. "A Pangburn submitted his
proposition in writing agreeing to
do the inspection work on the Sew
age Disposal Plant in accordance
with the plans and specifications
and accept IL per cent of the
contract price of the proposed
plant as his fees. His proposition
was accepted and the proposal fled.
The Starbuck Engineering Co.
presented its bills for $1048.22 be-
ing first installment on engineering
fees on the Sewage Disposal Plant,
but as the contract with M. J.
O'Neil had not yet been signed,
the Clerk was directed to hold the
bill and issue check therefore just
as soon as the contract was closed.
Henry Otto presented a deed for
one-third interest on Sewage Dis
posal Plant sit and bill for $780,
90 and A. J. Weisner, as Admins
traitor presented deed for the Rez-
necheck one-third interest in said
property and a bill for $4,000.
The Otto deed was returned for
correction and when returned so
corrected, these bills would be al
lowed less the cost of abstract and
taxes.
The Clerk reported having drawn
Orders No. 1920 to No. 1885 inclu-
sive in payment of the regular pay
roll and fixed charges, and such ac-
ton was confirmed.

Stearns County Work
Plans Are Curbed
New Assignments Dampened by
State Order-$1OO Pay
is Limit

Ii AlIllG
With the special state order curb
ing further CWA job assignments
in effect, the work program thru
out Stearns county was Monday re-
stricted to keeping present work
men employed.
AT the same time officials con-
tinued the unpleasant task of whit
ting the county's quota from the
$500 figure to that Of 2,088 as spec
flied by the official state allotment.
Many workers were automatically
dropped from the CWA rolls Thurs
day when investigation revealed
earnings exceeded the 500 maxi
mum limit.
Others, though their paychecks
totaled 500 were kept on the job
because unemployment would re-
vert them to relief lines.
The steady flow Of prospective
CWA projects into Stearns work
headquarters were cut short Satur-
day by the official order. Ray
Schepers, manager Of the national
office, estimated pro-
jects or more than enough to care
for the present program in the
county were on file. The state re-
fuses to review additional pro-
grams.

A CORRECTION

An erroneous statement, based
upon the fact that it was supposed
the Water, Light & Power Commits
sion, had made application for a
PWA loan, was published in the
Herald last week. Through a mis-
understanding we said that the
commission had applied for and
had received a federal loan, which
was not the case. The application
was a request to use CWA men on
the work as planned by the COM
mission. There are those who won
dered why the commission had
made loan, when it had plenty
of money to care for the work,
hence this correction.

Laws Provide More
Time to Pay Taxes
If Personal Tax is'IMore Than $40
it May Be Paid In Two Equal
stallmentS Law States

Long Prairie Leader-As the re-
suit of changes made in the law at
the regular session Of the legisla-
ture last year, residents of the
county are permitted to divide pay
ment of taxes which is expected to
be a great convenience. Last
weeks issue of The Leader briefly
mentioned how personal and real
estate taxes may be paid but the
item was not quite clear and in
order to remove any confusion
which may exist, the paper this
week, through the courtesy of
County Treasurer Stephan, explains
how the law operates:
If personal property taxes amount
to more than $40 they may be paid
in two installments. The first half
must be paid before March 1, 1884,
and the second half before July 1,
1884. If the first half Of the personal
property tax is not paid before
March there is an per cent pen
atty added.
Real estate taxes may be paid
quarterly. The first quarter ends
March 81; the second quarter ends
May 81. the third quarter, August
81, and the fourth quarter October
81. There is no penalty if the first
quarter taxes are not paid by
March 81, but if the first half tax
es are not paid by May 81 there is
percent penalty which Is in
creased one percent per month un-

COLLECTIONS SHOW GAIN

The Minnesota highway patrol
was instrumental in collecting 1884,
296 in license fees and fines in 1888,
as compared to $134,528 in 1882, a
gain Of approximately $4,000, &C
cording to a highway department
announcement This increase
came despite a decrease in fines
from $56,498 in 1882 to $47,O11 in
1888, or $9,4S6. ...
The increase in the total collect
ed was due principally to close OBJ
servation of trucks from other
states and enforcement of laws re-
quiring Minnesota licenses under
certain conditions.
Courtesy tags brought increased
cooperation between the driving
public and the patrol in 1888, the
report stated, thus explaining the
decrease in the total amount of
fines for various attractions of high
WITTY laws.

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS

Two Federal representatives, VINO
will deal with both the seed and
hay problems are expected in Sank
Centre very soon. It is highly i'm
portant that all farmers having
seed to spare register the same at
the local Drouth Relief Office be-
fore the arrival Of the seed man. All
available local seed is badly needed
and every farmer, who can spare
seed will be helping his neighbor.
It is not yet certain that all local
seed plus what can be shipped in
will be sufficient for our seed needs.
Hay registrations are also highly
necessary. It is assumed that the
government will buy all hay regis
tered provided the holders of hay
wish to accept the price, because
all local hay is badly needed locally.
There is, of course, no obligation
on the part Of those registering to
sell either the seed or hay they reg
lister.
