The aims and purposes of the Northern Minnesota Development Association _were-indorsed and the bankers pledged themselves to do all in their power to further the movement.

'COUNTY FINANGES IN A HEALTHY GONDITION Amouat of Personal Taxes Paid on May 31 Greatly Exceeds That of One Year Ago. G. A. French, county treasurer, has given out some statistics that show the healthy condition of Bel- On May 31, trami county finances. i ) the last day on which the first half of the personal property tax could be paid without incurring the 10 per cent penalty, the office received $58,660.20 in tax money. One year ago, the amount received was | $35,118.19.

The residents will enjoy the advantage of good streets for nothing. The assessments cullected will be placed in a special street fund and can be used over again. The $15,000 is to care for city improvements. The city jail has been condemned so that prisioners are kept over night in the city ball. The city hall rooms should voters of ) be attended to more readily. The streets need grading and it will long before a new bridge will be needed over the Mississippi. The funeral of A. O.
