In another column we repro
duce a letter written by Chas.
Krauth, Sec'y of the North Dako-
ia Wool Growers Association to
Senator Hansbrough, also an ex-
tract from a letter received by the
PRESS from another prominent
wool producer. These gentlemen
take exceptions to recent COM
ment of the PRESS as to the pro-
posed duty on wool, but are evil
IDENTIFY themselves at variance on
the subject. The PRESS earnestly
advocates protection for the west
ern wool-growers but let it be at a
just and reasonable rate. Any
thing beyond that would not be
permanent. A duty on raw wool,
as it comes from the sheep, of
9 cents seems adequate; but cer-
tainly the western representatives
and senators should see to it that
such protection as is given is not
n%eutralized by any jugglery in the
phraseologyo of the law.

A Taxation Mares Nest.

Sonro~,orrespondent, writing from
Bismarck to the Minneapolis Journal,
has stated that the taxes of 1896 in
this state could not be collected, be-
cause the law under which those tax
es were assessed and levied has been
repealed.
Now what are the facts? 1t is un-
doubtedly true that in a moment of
inadvertance the legislature did re-
peal sec. 1888, among other sections.
This section provides the time when
the 1896 taxes shall become delin.
quent and when the penalty shall 60
on. The new law provides that tax.
es shall become delinquent IN Janua.
ry, while section 1888 of the 1895 code
provides that they shall become de-
linquent in June. 1t Is obvious that
the 1896 taxes could not be declared
delinquent in January by a law that
did not go into effect until the 9Th of
March follywing. So the 1895 taxes
will In all probability not become de-
linquent until June.
1t must be remembered that some
times things are not just what they
seem. AS one reads the repeating
section of the new revenue law passed
in 1897, he sees clearly that section
1888 of the Revised Codes is repealed.
But sometimes a repeating clause
does not repeal. For example, the
Revised Codes which went into effect
Jan. /, 1896. state on page 1919 that
chapter 1872 of the laws of 1890 is re-
pealed. The repeal of that chapter
at that time left the state without
any assessors. The question came
before the supreme court. and the
supreme court held that although the
legislature of 1895 repealed chap. 1872
of the laws Of 1890 in express terms,
yet it was sobvious that the broad
letter of this repeating act Is in con-
tiict with the whole spirit and pur-
pose of the revenue law passed at the
same time. AS both cannot stand,
it is obvious that we must give effect
to the true legislative purpose"
The court calls attention to the
fact that the repeating act, in repeal
ing chap. 1872 of the laws of 1890
buries the words 'chap. 1872, laws OF
$780," in a mass of references ia
to hundreds of other sections, chap.
tiers, and laws there declared to be
repealed" This same remark could
be applied to the law of 1897 which
repeats section 1888, relating to the
date when taxes become delinquent
and when penalty shall attach for '98
1t is very clear that the supreme
court, following its decision in thu
case of State ex rel Scovil VS.. Moor
house which we have been quoting
wonld decide that sec. 1898 was moi
in fact repealed; that it will stand at
least until after the '96 taxes are dis
posed of, and tnat it will forever ap
ply to them. The legislative intent
must be taken into consideration
Certainly it was never the intention
Of the legislature to repeal a law SO
as to leave the '96 taxes in sucf
shape that they would never become
delinquent and no penalty would eve
accrue. Besides, the supreme court
il called npon to decide which of tn
two conflicting laws shall stand, ca,
rs we'll elect to set aside a repealin
clause as one that enacts.-Manda

HEBRON, N. u. Marc

nEBtkUNS M ~ N1NIC1I co. W.
Hon. H. C. Hansbrough, us. Senate,
Washington, D. C.-Dear Sir: Ino.
ticed lately in a number of papers
some articles which make it appear
that the wool growers Of the west con.
slider the proposed duties of IL cents
per ID for wool of the LIST class and
IL cents per III. of the End class ex-
cessive and not in line with their de-
mands. If these reports really come
from sheep.men it seems to mo that
they were not posted as to the provi-
sions of the proposed new tariff law
and evidently did not know that the
above mentioned rates give them
only about 6 cents duty on a pound
for the class of wool raised in North |
Dakota In their letter of January
Goth written to you Ivy the committee,
appointed by the Woolgrowers' Asso-
citation of North Dakota, this COM
mittee demanded a specific duty Of
not less than Q cents per pound on
wool in ordinary condition., as it
comes from the sheep and that all
wool that is sorted or skirted should
pay a higher duty if imported in this
improved condition.
AS the Ways and Means committee
saw fit not to discriminate against
sorted and skirted wool and the pro.
posed law as it stands allows this i'm
proved wool to come in without pay
ing a higher duty it means that the
average wool raised in North Dakota
will not derive more than 6 cents
duty per pound, which protection is
absolutely needed to make the sheep
industry a paying industry in u
state.
In speaking for the Wool Growers
Association of North Dakota, I wish
to state that the new tariff law, in
its provisions relative to wool, is sat-
lsfactory to the interests Of the sheep
industry and if speedily enacted will
be hailed by all sheepmen throughout
the land. But by no means should
the proposed duties on wool be less
and in the interests of the New Eng
land wool manufacturers, who IRE op-
posed to an adequate protection on
raw wool but insist on the retention
of the Mckinley rates on all manu-
featured goods.
1t is a we'll known fact, that the
defects and l~oopholes in the former
Mckinley bill will be due to the
scheming influence Of the eastern
manufacturers who succeeded in
robbing the wool-growers of a large
share of the protection intended for
them. by the trainers of the McKin-
lev law. All tariff laws heretofore
have been in the favor of manufac-
turers more than the producers, nov
this time let us have fair play and
give us what is justly due us.
Yours very respectfully,
CHAs. KRAUTH,
Sec'y Of Wool Growers Assn of N. D.
In a letter to the PRESS on the same
subject, E. II. Wilson, a prominent
sheep owner of Bismarck, expresses
himself thus:
admit that a duty of IL cents per
pound is q high duty, more than the
most enthusiastic protectionist would
ask, but let me say to you that the
way they now have the bill "provided
that skirted woods as now imported
are hereby excepted" and imposing
a duty of 80 par cent ad valorum on
woods of the Bird class will in actual
practice give the "western wool
growers" protection not to exceed 3
to S cents per pound.
