TAX CASES At MINOT

~. d. IT,.
In view of the question, as to the
right of county commissioners to re-
bate taxes at this time, the following
from Minot will prove interesting:
One Of the first effects of the recent
removal from Office of County Com
missioners S. S. Richardson and L. r.
Carroll was witnessed in Minot yes
terday afternoon, when mass meet
| ing Of the heaviest taxpayers of the
city was held at the Commercial club
Erooms. The purpose of the gather
ling was to devise some means@sof Sc
curing readjustment of the assessed
valuation of the city as fixed by the
commissioners while sitting as a
| board of equalization. Last July the
commissioners raised the assessed
valuation of the city of Minot so per
cent. The taxpayers believing that 1t
would ibe useless to make an attempt
to secure any adjustment as long as
the old commissioners were in power,
have waited until a majority of the
ruling board has been deposed before
taking any action in the matter. At
yesterdays meeting a committee con-
sisting of T. P. Kulaas, Martin Jacob
son and Attorney, Arthur LeSueur,
was appointed by Charles Grow, chair
man of the meeting, to meet with the
board of commissioners at their next
meeting and discuss this subject of
reduction in the assessed valuation OF
Minot. The committee will seek to
have the board rescind the action of
the former board in raising the valua-
ton SO per cent. In case they are I'M
successful several of the Individual
taxpayers will resort to. legal action
and it is quite probable, Judging from
the trend of the discussion at the
meeting that Attorney J. B. Wineman
of Grand Forks will be retained by the
taxpayers. .* CT. s% %. ,.%

The wonderful growth of North Da.
kota is attracting attention from
magazine writer's, and excerpts from
an article of Ralph D. Paine in Outing
have been published in many papers
In the state. The same splendid and
rapid growth of which he writes in
one section of the state may be no.
ticed all through the northern, central
and western parts of the state. No
story of growth and development
could be more interesting than that
which might be written of the Mis-
souri, Slope country in the past few
years. The coming year will see an
other interesting chapter written.
Railroad extensions are planned on
both sides of the Missouri river. The
500 is planning to extend northeast
and northwest from its present term
mus at Garrison. The Northern Pa
cific will no doubt build both north
and south from Mandan on the west
side of the river. Everywhere there
is fertile and arabic land. New towns
will grow, new businesses will be
established and the story of settle
ment and development will be writ
ten again in a section that but few
years ago was waste land, unsettled
and wild. -

u 1t seems that the secretary of the
interior has sent an adverse report
to the proposal to appropriate mil
lion dollars from the reclamation fund
for drainage work in North Dakota,
not for the reason that he holds It I'M
lawful under the provisions of the
bill but because all of the funds on
hand and that will be received for
several years are hypothecated or
pledged by works already undertaken.
There is little doubt, however, if the
bill for drainage is passed, that funds
could be found to carry ON the work
In the valley, in ample time to permit
payment for the work when it is COM
pleted.

North Dakota people travel exten-
sively. Many of them have prospered
so greatly in the state that they are
financially able to take up residence
in a climate where every prospect
pleases and man is not altogether
vile. These suggestions come to
mind when we read that at the North
Dakota picnic at Los Angeles, recent
ly, over 500 residents or former resi-
dents of North Dakota attended.
Some of them are permanent resi-
dents Of that ideal climate, others are
spending the winter there, but all are
loyal to the old state.

49,
The settlers in Logan and Mcintosh
counties are in territory naturally
tributary to Bismarck, and it is not
to be wondered that they made such
an effective protest against being put
into the Fargo land district that the
order was modified to leave them
where they have been. The residents
of this territory live along the 500
line and have daily train service to
Bismarck. To require them to go to
Fargo would take them from their
homes to Bismarck and from Bis
marck to Fargo: necessity and in
convenience unjustified by any con-
sheraton of public policy.

BISMARCK Was THE
JUMPING OFF PLACE.

Fargo Call: T. E. Blanche, general
agent in Duluth for the Northern Pa
cific road, has come into possession
of folder issued by the road in 1879,
and even to those people 20 whom a
quarter Of century, back doesn't
seem so very long the changes in the
northwest since that railroad folder
did service are startling.
AT that time the Northern Pacific
road extended west only as far as
Bismarck, but it appears to have
been surveyed through to Portland,
as is indicated by the dotted line on
the folder map, from the North Da-
kota capital to the Columbia. In
those days the stage fiourished in the
west as a means of transportation,
and it was at time when there was
much excitement over the discovery
of gold in the Black Hills.
The Northern Pacific" folders in
1879 carried numerous advertisements
OF these stage lines and of Missouri
river steamers. The buffalo still
roamed the plains in great herds and
the western frontier was full of the
romantic and the picturesque. Then
We're the days when the railroads and
stage routes were infested with des-
perate men, and the name of Jesse
James and his band carried fear to
the heart of the eastern tenderfoot
who had taken Horace Greeley's adj
vice and followed the star of empire.
The stage routes laid great stress
il their advertising on connections
with the Northern Pacific and on the
great precautions that were taken to
insure the safety of passengers and
their property. The s.Custer Route"
to the Black Hills is advertised on
the folder as the only line having
United States military protection.
The stage route from Bismarck to the
Blacks Hills IS further recommended
as follows:
The United States government.
recognizing the Importance of this,
the only first1class route to the Hills,
has established military post near
the foot hills to protect the line from
bismarck to the Black Hills, thus
making it as safe and free: from
danger in travelling as in any part of
the states. $3.50
In addition to the protection given
by United. States troops The com
pany has established a system of
outriders, two of whom accompany
each coach. They have also adopted
plan to further protect passengers
from raids by road agents. Pas
sengers before starting can deposit
all moneys not required for expenses,
or meals, ETC., on the road, with
their agent, and secure q draft for
their amount on their agent at the
other end of the line, thus obviating
all danger of loss"
While there is an occasional hold
up OF a stage nowadays or even a
train is brought to a stand by some
road agent, the west is no worse in
this respect than some other parts of
the country. The profession of road
agent and the gentle art of shooting
UP towns have become almost mem
cries since the Northern Pacific is
sued its folder in 1879. The palatial
trains speed over the prairie from
which have vanished the buffalo, the
armed stage coach, the military es-
eort, the road agents band, and to
large extent the Indian.
