Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1898-02-11

The confidence of capitalists in Sc
curities offered by the state of North
Dakota is evidenced by the successful
sale of $4,000 in bonds which has been
negotiated by the trustees of the insane
asylum. These bonds were authorized by
the last legislative assembly, and are
not state bonds whose payment is
guaranteed by the state, but are purely
bonds of the institution, guaranteed by
the lands of the institution, and are to
be paid at the end of twenty years from
the interest and income arising from the
lands of the institution. The interest is
payable annually at 6 per cent from the
interest and income fund, but the state
guarantees to make up any deficiency in
the interest, providing the interest and
income from the institution lands is not
sufficient to meet the interest charges,
at any time. 1t is also provided that
all interest and income arising from the
lands of the institution shall be kept by
the state treasurer to the credit of the
asylum, and a sinking fund shall be
created for the payment of the bonds
when due. 1t might be supposed that
capitalists would hesitate to purchase
bonds whose payment is conditioned
upon an uncertain income from lands of
varying value, but instead of this feel
ing there was such eagerness to buy the
bonds that a premium of $1,000 was
paid for them. and the $4,000 worth of
bonds sold for $4,000. With this amount
greatly needed additional buildings can
be erected at the insane hospital. 1t
pays to have a state reputation for the
prompt and honorable payment of OBJ
legations, as is proven in this instance.

Another long felt want has been filled
by the Introduction of a culinary depart
ment, which has been put under the man
agemen of the stewardess. Things are
so arranged now that the members can

zment had a monetary effect in creating
a fear of the unknown, but as events
progress all the details of the dire Tor
holdings are melting away into pure hum

Prices have not declined: money is not
boarded to any remarkable extent; there
is no rush to sell; there is not the sisa
of a panic, and whatever check industry
NAV sustain in one direction has been
counterbalanced by gains in another.
Thus. if the withdrawal of a hundreo
thousand men from the ordinary walks
of life may tend to diminish the pro-
ducfion of wealth in one direction, the
increase in the price of wheat ana al
other food products helps largely to
counterbalance the loss, and the employ
ment of men on a vast scale on orders
growing out of the war itself puts money
in circulation. gives men a chance to be
buyers and so creates a demand Tor COM

mainly due to a hope of higher rates for

also sees a good outlook in iron and IN
the wool market, and generally it con-
siders the business situation as one of

probably all we need to open up a sea-
son of large profits is the termination of
the war with such rapidity and eclat as
to establish the reputation of our arms
and render any prospect of another Euro

operations are protracted and doubtful,
financial centres may become nervous,
money may become tight. and production
may lose all elasticity. If this should
come to pass. however, it may be set
down to weak and incompetent states

noBoKEN SCHOOLS EXERCISES.

The Hoboken Commissioner of Public
Instruction met on Monday, and decided to
hold the annual commencement exercises of
the public schools at the Lyric Theatre.on
June IS. A committee of thirty pupils Of
the High School appeared before the Com
missioners and assured the members that
they appreciated the hospitality of President
Russ in taking them to Lake Hopatcong.
They vehemnetly denied the story, published
in some newspapers, that they were COM
PEELED to pay for the trip.
The monthly pay roll, amounting to
81 1000, was passed. It was decided to ask
the Tax Commissioners for S174, 600, which.
with the amount appropriated by the State,
is calculated to run the public schools for
