The law i'll regard to the sale of state
lands provides that the purchaser shall

In answer TO question propounded by
an assessor, the attorney decides that
since the state holds the land in trust for
another, who is to all purposes and intents
the owner. it is il fit subject for taxation.
and advises the assessment OF all such
land. He believes, further, that the land
should be assessed for more than the stat
utory price fixed by law regardless of any
provisions to the contrary, since the con-
stitution requires that property must be
assessed at its market value.

Montana to put such persons in the county

that the constitution Of the state express
ly provides that no person shall be impris-
oned who can not give bond for his ap-
pcalance in criminal proceedings where
his testimony might be required, but that
in such cases the deposition OF the wit

low of favorable comparisons with past
periods alike in this and preceding years.
Aside from a quoting demand at e few

tainty as 10 the outcome Of foreign com

willingness to embark in new business,
/ the situation is one possessing nearly dill
/ OF the favorable features noted for some
time past. The best reports as to distri-
button III leading lines come from the cen
ter west and the northwest. Favorable
weather has improved the distribution OF
dry goods, clothing, millinery, building
materials, agricultural implements and
nearly all other products forming staple
articles for consumption among the pros
porous farming community.
The movement OF iron and steel is spe-
cially large. but without effect ca prices,
which are generally firmly held Some
slight advances in pig iron, in fact, have
been a feature of the week at some MAJ
kets. Southern iron manufacturers are
active, and fruit and vegetable shipments
promise alike to be early and heavy. Dis
tributive trade is reported increasing at
the northwest. navigation is practically
open on the lakes, and the first Of April
will witness general movement Of craft.
Other favorable features of the country 3
general trade situation are summed up in
liberal shipments OF leading cereals un-
preeedented totals OF exports at New
ork. fewer business failures and slightly
larger bank clearances.

to have come from Fort Schuyler up the
