STATE BOARD SET
LOFTY VALUATION
ASSESSMENT ON RAILROADS is IN
SOME INSTANCES INCREASED
THREE HUNDRED PER CENT. d.
[srEcrAL TO INTER MouNrAIN.l

ESPECIAL TO INTER MouHTAIN.l
Helena, August Yesterday the state
board OF equalization made enormous in.
crease in the values, in some cases as much
as 300 per cent.
All main lines OF the principal roads in
the state are placed at about $4,000. The
Butte, Anaconda 4 Pacific was valued at
$I64oo. Through the change the board has
increased the valuation of l.Ie roads from
about $4,000 900 to probably 100000 900.
Governor Toole, cha;rna., of the board; ;
State Treasurer A. H. Barret and c.ate
Auditor ]. ID. Caderhead voted for the
raise. Secretary OF State George M. Hays
said 10 per cent would be right and would
not favor over 20 per cent. Attorney Gem
eral James Donovan is reported to have
favored a raise Of per cent.
The Figures.
Following arc the figures agreed upon:
Big Horn Southern. $500; Butte, Ana

$4,000; Wickes, $I,337.5o; Oregon Short
Line, $40 900 Yellowstone Park, $I,537 so.
1nose who follow the actions OF the
board from year to year believed that the
raise would be from 6 to 10 per cent
Last year the increase was but IN per cent
on all Of the property. Owing to the great
increase the representatives Of the rail
roads will probably appear before the board
again to give further reasons for a lower
valuation.

NJ. Scpiaguin closed the Northern
Courier and the Russya. After their cx-
tinction the only newspaper which main
tanned an independent attitude toward the
government was the ST. Petersburg Nicdo
mosti--an old journal which, since il has
passed into tic hands Of Prince Oukhtom-
sky, has been characterized by the honor

it has been conducted. That il is not a
liberal paper according to Western no
tions need scarcely 10 he emphasized.
liberal paper is absolutely impossible, where
the censorship is as vigilant and exactinR
as IL is in Russia.
Subject to Censorship
The Viedomos,i has abstained, except
on rare occasions, from any comment
whatever. Its original news articles were
couched in the guarded and matter of fact
language and was based on official data.
1t must be explained that outside of ST.
Petersburg and Moscow, the daily press Is
subject to preliminary censorship tnat is.
no article may be published which has
not been sanctioned by government off
cial assigned especially to review its mat
tcrs.
The press of the two capitals is free
from this burden but may be and is called
to strict account for any matter that
may be found Objectionable and is reRu-
larly warned against handling such sub
jects at all. 1t is fac, that ownership Of
newspapers under preliminary censorship
can be and are severely dealt with. and
the papers can be suppressed for publish
ing matter that has been sanctioned by their
particular censor. In spite Of this censor
ship, the St. Petersburg Viedomos, has
always been characterized by it's interest
ing excerpts from the provincial newspa-
pers.
II alone, of all the St. Petersburg news
papers, has attempted TO keep It's readers
informed about what was going on in the
interior of Russia.
