Work Rushed on Sewage Treat.
ment Plant, New Bridge
and PumphOuse Road

Ramsey State park, the miniature
Yellowstone of Minnesota, is no long
er the cesspool Of the city of Red
wood Falls.
The first of four sewage outlets
was connected with the new inter-
ceptor Monday night, two more were
turned over Tuesday night and it is
expected that the fourth will be at
tached to the line in few days.
Although it will take rains to COM
pletely wash out the park streams,
the cause of the condition is removed
as the new sewer takes the wastes
beyond the park where preliminary
treatment plant is being built as
rapidly as possible.
Members of the council and Mayor
H. D. Thorp had reason to rejoice at
their meeting Monday afternoon as
their accomplishment has been the
dream of every administration in re-
cent years.
R. F. Byram, Redwood Falls con-
tractor, was appointed superintend-
emit of the construction crew on the
plant and began work Monday after
noon after his appointment. The
work is delayed somewhat by cave
in of one of the walls.
In the meantime, work on the new
bridge is progressing rapidly and
Monday workmen began draining the
water out of the nook at the east
edge of the dam. When the water was
only about half taken out the idle
river started running. Although the
amount taken out is not sufficient to
flush the park, it will help.
The council authorized continuing
work on the pump house road which
was started several months ago by
CWA labor.
The city is finishing the project at
its own expense and expects to have
it done in a short time. William
Schottenbauer's crew is doing the fin
ishing work.

Before crowd which packed the

and the recently adopted platform
but of Farmer-Labor practices as
well. One candidate who is mem
Der made use of the occasion to cri-
ticize Redwood county party leaders
for alleged nepotism and ward-heel-
ing practices.
Another candidate, Bert Draayom
of Walnut Grove who seeks seat in
the senate, added spice to the meet
ing by interrupting Mike Kramer, can
dictate for the legislature from Red
wood county, as Mr.. Kramer was
praising the party as friend to the
farmer and taking credit for the
mortgage moratorium law as party
measure.
"Who was the author of that bill, y
Mr.. Draayom demanded.
at doesn't make any difference
who the author was" Mr.. Kramer
countered.
"Vin Weber of Slayton (Republic-

Rev. Bud Robinson to
Be Here September A

Rev. Bud Robinson is scheduled to
speak at the Nazarene church here
Tuesday evening, September A. He
has appeared on all the large camp
meeting platforms of the United
States and his evangelistic work has
carried him into thousands of
churches.
The "Good Samaritan Chats" he
writes are published in a number of
religious journals. His Irish sayings
are quoted by preachers every where.
The son of Tennessee mountain
moonshiner, he was raised in power
ty and ignorance. AS boy he visit
ed friend and for the first time
slept in a bed and ate with a knife
and fork. His father was either
killed or run off by the federal agents
in their attempt to stamp out the IL
legal liquor traffic and the rest Of
the family moved to Texas.
At the age Of 21 while attending
a large camp meeting he was con-
verted. He soon began to learn to
read and write and was licensed to
preach. He has written several
books which have had a large sale.
He can quote the entire New Testa-
ment and a major portion of the Old
from memory. With his earnings
from the evangelistic field he has
educated at least SO young men for
the ministry, the late Rev. Will Huff
of Sioux City being one Of them. A
few months ago he returned from a
trip to the Holy Land. At his ad-
vanced age this will probably be his
last visit to this part of the country
and it is expected that the local
church will be taxed to capacity to
accommodate those who will want to
hear him. ~

until such time as they have
proved the caliber of their play
and stability. The California pro-

world series with the champion Of

the executives of the parent body
will have some contradictory opin-

The National League season Is
concluded in December while on
the Coast the professionals likely
will want to play into February
If not July-and it would be quite
a task to keep the Eastern cham

such a period. If both the Pacific

WALKER EVENS Up
WITH ROSENBL0OM
Elder of Two DoCiIe Vets
Gets Decision in Bout
in Los Angeles.

BY the Associated Press.
T OS ANGELES, May 9.-The
boxing accounts of two
docile old ring masters,
~ Mickey Walker and Make
Rosenbloom, stood balanced to-
day.
Walker, the elder, won himself
1O-round decision over the
world ght-heavyweight cham
pion last night in a non-title
fight which saw half the 10000
seats in the Olympic Auditorium
empty.
The Rumson, N j., bulldog, built
up a wide lead in the first five rounds
as Rosenbloom, slightly bald of head
and heavy around the waist, paved
ineffectively at the former world
welter and middleweight champion.
In the fifth Walker brought blood
from Rosenbloom'S left eye as the re-
suit of light cut. This, however.
failed to increase the tempo of the
fight, although Rosenbloom retaiated
for the eye injury by breaking. the
skin over Mickey's left orb in the
eighth.
The Associated Press card gave
Walker six rounds and the champion
three. Rosenbloom took a decision
from Walker in New York last Fall.
Walker weighed It's. and Rosen-
bloom, 178
