Martins BiII q Law:

For an act to fix dates for holding
term Of district court in the county of
Billings.
Be it enacted by the Legislative assem-
bly, Of the state of North Dakota:
Section /. The second subdivision OF
the sixth judicial district consists of the
county of Billings and two terms OF
cour thereof shall be held at the county
seat, commencing on the third Tuesday
in April and the first Tuesday in October
Of each year.
Judge Winchester calls attention to
the TACT that Martins bill providing for
a term of court in Billings county on the
third Tuesday in April conflicts with the
old law providing for a term in Morton
county on the same date. The Martin
bill has been signed by the governor
and the judge is in a quandry as to how
he is to divide himself and appear in
both counties on the same date. In
the opinion of some the new law super
cedes the old, which, If correct, will
leave Morton county with but one term
a year. The Martin law is known as
house bill 40, and it amends subdivi
sion 7 of section 4o8 of the political
code.

ers Of Stark County, n. D.
Dickinson, N. D.,
March 4th, 1905.

March 4th, 1905.
The commissioners met on the above
date, all present.
The following petition was received
from the State Finance Co., to-wit:
ITO the Honorable Board OF County
Commissioners of Stark county, N. D.:
"The undersigned respectfully repre-
sents to your honorable body that it is
the owner of the attached list of lot,
in the town of Richardton, on which the
assessment for 1903 was $3.50, at the rate
of 81 per lot, and that said assessmen,
was raised in 1904 to $4,I5o, at the rate
of $40 per lot for every lot in said list
That said valuation in 1904 is grossly
excessive and unfair. That said lot,
are for the most part remote from the
center of said town which covers I6c
acres, and unless needed for building
purposes they have no value whatever
An assessment Of s. per lot amounts to
$40 per acre for 5o-foot lots and $40 pei
acre for 25-foot lots, which is vastly
more than the land is worth for any
purpose at the present time.
Wherefore your petitioner prays that
the taxes against the lots in said list
described for 1904 may be abated to the
amount chargeable against the same il
the assessment for 1904 had been S. per
lot on all lots north OF the railroad track
except lots to IL inclusive in blocks u
to- a. inclusive. and for lots south of the
railroad track at the ate OF 81 per lot
for lots 1 to II inclusive in blocks ~ to
81 INCLUSIVE, and 81 per lot for all other
lots south Of the railroad track, and
respectfully prays that the assessment
of said lots for 1905 be at the same said
valuation above suggested.
STATE FINANCE COMPANY,
"Per Il. Page, President"
On motion Of Commissioner Walton,
seconded by Koesel, the auditor was
authorized to correct the tax list for the
year 1904 in accordance with the above
on the list of lots attached to said petit
ton and owned by the State Finance
company, all voting aye.
On motion the board proceeded to
replenish the jury list in accordance
with section 453 revised codes, complet.
ing the same at 6 O'Clock p. m. and on
motion adjourned sine die.
