ASSESSORS WANT CHANGES.
They Desire Longer Term Tax.Rolr
Altered and Time Extended.

The assessors of Montana propose to
place themselves on records as th,.
sponsors OF many changes in the tax
laws when their state association
meets in Butte, Jan. %. They will,
digest the statutes that apply to them
in particular and will sugge "A mum
Der of amendments for the considera-
ton of the next Legislative assembly.
prominent among the amendments
contemplated is one making the term
OF. Office of assessors four years. In
support of this amendment they con
tend that they are only fairly indicted
into office and have made themselves
familiar with the duties Of the pl ace
when they are succeeded by someone
else, who is as unfamiliar with the
work as they were when they took
Charge of it.
They will endeavor to bring about
a change in the form of the tax roll.
They say that the present form is cum
bersome and awkard and there are.
bright minds among them who believe
they are cayable of designing one
much more convenient.
They will recommend the adoption
OF law extending the time they are
given in which to complete the assess
ment. Under the present law the as
SCISSOR must have his work completed.
on the third Monday in July. They
will suggest that this law be amended
SO as to make completion of the assess
ment obligatory on the first Monday in
August. Many other amendments will
be suggested.
Something will be done at this meet
ing in regard to uniformity in assess
ment, and particularly in regard to.
bank stock. Silver Bow, Lewis and
Clarke and Granite counties assess
bank stock at par. In all other coun-
ties of the state it is assessed lower
than par, no matter what the earning
capacity of the stock may be. The
assessors have somehow gained the i'm
preston that bank stock is worth its
face value and in the future will as
sess 1t accordingly.
1t is expected that the members oi
the state board of equalization and the
chairman of the various boards of con
missioners of the state will be in AT.
tendance at the meeting.

every liar in the community, including
some who have no reputation at all,
will try one to excel the other, and on
the 22nd they will each take a hatchet
and cut down a cherry tree, if thev
can lind one; from the 22nd to the first
day OF March the wind will blow, in
and about town, from the firstof March
until the Goth Of March the wind will
blow some more. On the first day Of
April the ground hog will appear, he
will delay his appearance until this
late date because he is a fool for try
ting to appear at any earlier date in

nor cast the horoscope of old Father

The commissioner of the general
land Office held that where the filing
was incomplete when filed in the local
land Office the selector Of these lands
had no vested rights and his applica-
tion was practically void from the be-
ginning.
Every since this ruling was made
people who held claims under the for
est reserve plan have been uneasy lest
they be ousted. The ruling of the sec
retary of the interior, which reverses
and sets aside the decision of the COM
:nissioners of the general land office
allows the settlers and stockraisers to
breathe easy once more.
Had the secretary of the. interior
sustained the commissioner, thousands
of stockmen and ranchers would have
lost their rights to select unsurveyed
lands in lieu Of forest reserve lands.
