Russian Atrocities

BERLIN, May 22.-Herr Wettendorf,
who has just returned from a visit to
Moscow, confirms the statements of the
atrocious treatment of the Jews. He
saw a score of dead in the
streets, mostly infants, who
had perished from exposure in
the sudden removal from their homes,
or been torn away from their mothers,
as many were under the pretext that
they had not been registered. Herr
Wettendorf himself, although not a
Jew, has rather a Hebrew visage, and
was compelled to 60 to the police Office
and give an account of himself and his
ancestry for several generations back.
He succeeded in proving that he was
not Jew, and was released.

HELENA. Mont, May 22.-Reports
from the Flat Head country are to the
effect that reign of lawlessness exists
among the boomers, who have STAN
peded to that country in advance of the
Great NOrthern's Western extension,
which is expected to boom land in the
vicinity. Two new towns Columbia
Falls and Kalisheli-have suddenly
sprung up, and $1,000, 600 worth of lots
sold in them. Among the motley popu-
latlon are many tough characters, and
acts of violence are of frequent occur
renee. Three men were killed Monday

SHEEP RAIsERs PROTEST.
The Proposed North Dakota Tax
Outrageous.

outrageous.
Special to the Globe.
JAMESTOWN, n. D., May 22.-It is
said administrations have been received
by the county commissioners which will
require assessors to raise the valuation
of sheep to So per head in this state.
This is considerably more than last
year, and will result in big kick from
the sheep men, who are just getting
started in North Dakota. 1t is claimed
that this tax will tend to prevent capital
investing in this now promising indus
try and drive men out of it who
have already invested. One of the
largest sheep growers of this county
stated to-day that. with the taxes and
possibility of having to pay sheep in
spector's charges, he would soon be
ready to sell out and quit the sheep bus
iness. Owners of large bands of sheep
claim the tax will prove burden out o.
proportion to what other property pays.
The necessities of the state seem to de-
mand a higher valuation of all personal
property, farm products and real estate
than ever before In one county real
estate will be raised One-third if asses
sor's figures on unimproYed land are TO
remain. One of the chief reasons for
this is the eXtraVagant appropriation
bills passed by the last legislature and
signed without protest by Governor
Burke. Unnecessary institutions and
schools of a local character were erected
and supplied with funds to pay salaries
and erect buildings. Twenty-Five thou
sand dollars year was donated to the
state military companies, $4,000 to the
worlds fair, $4,000 to a Fargo agri-
cultural school, besides thousands of
dollars for other schemes and jobs; it
was even deemed eXpedient to appro-
pirate $4,000 for needy settlers in coun-
ties that had reached debt limit. All
this in the face of the fact that farmers
had no seed wheat at home, and coun-
ties were keeping many INDECENT fami-
lies from want. The last Republican
farmers legislature was the most recll-
less and extrayagant in the history of
the state
