ROAD TAX LAW.

Sec. 1867. Compiled laws 1887.
All road taxes collected US personal
taxes from residents of any incorInr.
ated city or town, and all road taxes
collected OH account of real or person.
al property snitated within any incor.
pOrated city or town, by tho treasurer
of the county in which such city or
town is located, shall he turned over
quarterly by such treasurer to the
treasurer of s,,cl, incorporated city or
town. to he expended under the direc.
ton Of tle city council If such city or
of the hoard Of trustees of such town,
as the case may he, in tho improve.
ments of the streets or bridges of such
city Or town or of the roads approach.
ing thereto.
The above law stripped of its yer.
biage says, and probably means, that
all road taxes collected from the PEG.
pie and property in Incorporated towns
or cities, is to be paid to the tressurers
of the towns and not to the treasur.
crs Of the townships. AS the law was
passed in 1887 it is probable that the
county treasurer has IL considerable
balance on hand Or due as delinquent
tax to The credit Of the various incor.
porated towns and cities of the county
from this fund. Formerly this money
all went to the townships, If the cu,,n.
ty treasurcrs. who have been in office
since 1887, have still continued to give
all the road tax to the townships; it will
cause complications, ifthe towns and
cities lay claim to the moneys thus
misapprOpriated.

settlement must necessarily he u some.

J. A. Stadleinan. of Cavalier, Pembina

way home from Great Falls. Montana
where lie has been for q few weeks. Mr..
Stadleman says lie likes the appearance
of Great Falls and surrounding country
very much, but thinks Pembina county
good CROUCH for him yet. He owns a
large farm OH the Tongue river, which is
well stocked with cattle and sheep, and
which, in connection with ,isgrain crops,
makes nice income for tile gentleman.
Mr.. Stadleman thinks little stock to
help along is the way to farm successful.
ly in Dakota. lie intends 10 ship a car
load or two to Montana, 90 as to engage
more extensively in llorse raising. Mr..
stadlemsn expressed much sympathy

Hon. w. j. Kneeshaw,. district at.

DEAR SlE-YOmr fay"ruf Nav Goth
was received in my absence asking for
u construction of section IL of the new
revenue law. have made careful
examination Of that section and Of the
history of its passage, aud have reach.
ed the conclusion that there are two
distinct provisions with reference to
Offsets or deductions from personal
property assessment. The first lWr.
ton of said section clearly allows u
party who is assessed for his credits
to Offset against s,icl, credits all his
bona file indebtedness ~" matter
where held. In the Hill originally in.
trotl''ced after the word "privilegrs'
occurring in latter portion of said see.
ton, thu following CLAUS" occurs "Or
to furnish any deductions allowed by
this section. from the value of any
other item of taxati"n and crctlits;' in
the hill as it finally passed this clause
was stricken out and IL prOviO now
found in the bill was inserted. In my
opinion this change clearly indicates
an intention on the part of the I.egis.
lative Assembly besides allowing off.
sets Ofall Indebtedness against credits,
to also allow bona lile Indebtedness
held within the state to M Offset
aylinst the gross amount vi personal
property assessments. This section
was tile main bone of contention lie.
tween representatives If the mercan.
tile and farming interests in the legis.
lature and the result WAS u compromise
which was held tO H. fair to both in.
terests. The practical result in my
opinion will be- that .!:.ye would lie u
very small personal property assess.
ment. and il carried out according to
the legislative intent, comes pretty
near the Henry George single tax idea.
Very truly yours,
GEO. +. GOODWIN,
Attorney General.

To-day, the nation remembers her
brave dead and ,lecorates their mar.
row homes with garl;lnds of flowers.
Two Of the noblest traits of human
nature are thereby cultured, gratitude
and patriotism. The memorials to
the departed warriors are equally
an expression of love of country.
Happy the land whose soldiers are
thus worthy Of remembrance. Hap.

We haven't any personal fish to fry

puzzled as to whether our candidates
chances would be better for an earlier
"r later convention. AS IL matter Of
fact, in this republican state, the real
fight for state officers occurs previous
to the convention. y fair show for
all candidates, is to give plenty Of
time for free discussion of their rec:

are held which nominate the can.

that unless the convention is held in

This great, good. paternal and pc.
n,lrious government of ours is evil.
IDENTIFY about to take IL census, and
newspaper men begin to believe that
Uncle sam, or rather his nephew,
Mr.. Robt. +. Porter, expects to have
the job done cheaply, and that news
paper men in particular, Are peculiar.
ly patriotic. Some three months since.
we received IL circular. practically
asking us to li,ncl, up the county of.
ticials into sending in returns tia:
would take them many hours to work
up and which the supervisors of the
census seemed to realize that tho OIL.
Gals would not feel like doing it IN.
less they were forced to. SINCE then,
the circulars have come thicker and
faster until this week, if We had suf.
6cient census patriotism about us, we
have census copy Oh hand to print
three full columns: which might be
very interesting matter to some poo.
pie who are statistically inclined in
Washington, hut Of little or no inter.
est to people here. II Uncle sam or
Nephew Porter, think that the publ.
cation Of these circulars. etc. are of
any value in taking the census. we
will he glad to accommodate the firm
with our slace-at reasonable rates.
II the publication is of no value, there
is no use In publishing. if IL is of value,
that value is to the government and
they ought to pay for it. Any way,
Uncle Sam is sixty million times as
much interested in this matter as we
are. and has sixty million and more
times ~ much money in his pocket
and he's rich ';"'ip!; 20 Imy for wl,a,
he wants done. AMI don't need Ia go
