decision of the United States supreme
court, declaring that all the lands included
in the grant to the Northern Pacific rail-
road to be untaxable. has created consider
able str in this vicinity, and will cause still
more as it becomes thoroughly understood.
The fact that the bulk of the improved and
assessed property along the line Of this road
is included in this grant, and the decision
renders null and void all of the taxes here
tof0re levied upon lands held by or pur-
chased from this company, makes the future
aspect rather dismal. Without the taxes
assessed upon the land in this grant that
has been improved, both city and county
governments in some instances will become
bankrupt. Many of the towns along the
line of the road are upon railroad land.

of the court the municipal governments can

Fargo is quite elated over its success in Sc
curing the establishment of the smelling
business and the operation of its foundry,
which is now regarded as settled since the bo-
nus Of $4,000 is assured. The foundry
building, which costs over $4,000 and of
which so much was expected when built
several years ago, have been idle some three
years. Messrs. Kent and Mumford, the rep
resentatives of the syndicate promise to
begin putting in the machinery before the
year. They are to manufacture at least sixty
tons OF iron every twenty-four hours. They
are said to control vast amount of ore in
the Winnipeg region, which can be cheaply
shipped up the river. The duty on the ore IS
but IS cents a ton, while on pig iron it is Sc,
giving an advantage in its manufacture on
this side OF the line. This enterprise is eX

Eefec. of the Tax Decision.

1t is stated that Mr.. Willard, when president
of the Northern Pacific. paid the costs Of the
survey on a large part of the railroad lands
in Cass and some of the older counties so
that they are not affected by the late decision.
The exact effect of that decision is not quite
certain, but ifthe opinions expressed by lead
ing attorneys are correct it is a case that will
require the action Of congress to adjust. 1t
seems that in the original grant the stipula-
ton as to payment of surveys by the North
ern Pacific was not made. or its purport made
clear. In later congress Mr.. Holman Sc
cured the passage of a law requiring the road
to pay for the survey before patents should
issue. The road did not see fit to comply with
this requirement, and the department has re-
fused to issue patents. Consequently, as the
title has never passed from the government,
the lands are not taxable. If exempt from
taxation, those VINO nave paid taxes on them
would seem to be entitled to recover the
amounts paid. That is the view taken by
many. OF course, the men who have bought
lands of the railroad will hold it responsible,
and if they are free from taxation their griev-
ance will not be oppressive. Congress will
probably confirm the titles upon the payment
Of the cost of survey. .-....
