the same value. It is the business of
the state board, not to fix values of

counties and it has endeavored to do
so as the following table, giving the

equalized by the board will show:

FARM LANDS AND THE ASSESS
a& MENT. a.rr %s

Some of the newspapers in the
state, disposed to be unfriendIy to the |
administration and seeking every
possible opportunity to circulate false
and misleading reports with respect to
the official acts of the members of the
administration, have commented upon
the work of the state board Of equal
ization with the evident intention of
deceiving the people of the state as
to the extent and amount Of theain-
crease in the farming lands of the
state. Some papers have generally
described the action of the board as
raising the farm lands from 5 to 200.
per cent" the impression being con-
yeyed that values were doubled In
many cases. fnasmuch as the facts
+ with reference to this matter are

figures, it is difficult to discover why
a newspaper should make use of such
cheap and gauzy Misrepresentation to-
base an attack upon the administra-
ton -, AZ u T. s4E% 34 -.5
The records of the board show that
there was only one increase of 200 per
cent in the assessed valuation Of farm
& ing land. This was in Hettinger
county, where lands were returned
at fifty cents an acre. Hettinger
county has been the scene of remark
able activity in lands the past year.
Much of the. land is In the hands Of
large companies, owning large. tracts
and making sales at prices ranging
from IS To- s12 and SIS an acre, posi-.

AUSTRALIANS COMMERCE ACT

Consul General John P Bray, of
Melbourne, furnishes the following.
synopsis of the commerce act passed
by the parliament OF Australia, which
will become effective June last. 1t
viii be noted the law is quite similar
to North Dakota's pure food and drug
law, though it covers wider field.
Under this act it Is compulsory to at
tach a trade description to certain
articles either on importation or ex-
portation, the articles being articles
used for food or drink by man or used
in the manufacture or preparation of
articles used for food or drink by
man; medicines and medicinal pre-
|parations; manures; jewelry, and
seeds and plants. ! az8 IA. s.
I Compulsory description is not re-
|quired in regard to any other classes
OF goods than those mentioned above;
but if any description is applied to
any goods the law requires that it
shall be correct one. The minister
lof trade and customs, who has charge
of the administration OF the act, is
now engaged in drafting the regula.
ltions In regard to the compulsory
description of goods, and has indi.
Gated that certain principles viii be

As4EKDAIiS STOCK MARX III.
Further Falling Off in Business--Gen
 eraI List Falls.

New York Feb. 7.-There was fur ther falling off in business at the stock exchange to-day, and the general list fell into condition of actual neglect. A fillip of speculative activity in a few of the recent fayorites redeemed the market from condition of mid-sum- mer dullness. As it was the ticker was practically at a standstill at some peri ods of the day. An incident of the lapse into dullness was the inertia of prices, the level clinging to the neigh borhood of last nights closing with growing disinclination to move at all as the distance was increased from that level. The marrow vibration of the market was repeated several times during the day, making the hesitation of the speculative sentiment and the withdrawal from the market of oper- ators with large resources. There was no marked evidence of depression, but there was equally an absence of de- mand, Less apprehension was felt over the outcome of the wage controversy in the coal fields, and that factor ceas- ed to induce any active selling of stocks
 But it is realized that the definite de- eision of the question of strike must remain suspended until the outcome of the consultations arranged for next week in New York. Until that definite outcome the uncertainty of the mat ter is expected to exercise a repressive influence on speculation. This proba- ply had as much to do as any one thing with the unWllingness to make speculative commitments in the mar ket The outlook is for another poor bank statement on Saturday, and with a holiday falling on the Monday follow ing the inclination to defer specula- tive operations is emphasized, Foreign exchange continues to rule firm and the report gained circulation this morn- ing that gold had been engaged for ex- port to a large amount, Stocks weak ened on the rumor which proved un- founded, however. The few movements of any note in to-day's market were due to special causes. Those affecting the Hill railroads and the Pacifics are well understood. Amalgamated Cop per was subjected to some pressure, presumably by reason of the yielding tendency of the price of the metal. Some of the obscure soft coal stocks were marked up as an intended demon- stration of confidence in a settlement of the wage dispute with the coal min CTS. The rise in Distillers' securities was associated with the report of ad- vantages to follow the hoped for re- peal of the tax on alcohol for use in the arts. The closing debate on the railroad rate regulation bill was re- garded with languid interest, owing to the general conviction of the passage of the bill.
 The easy tone of the closing owed something to the effect of the weekly review of the iron trade, which report ed the market generally quiet and in spots easier.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, S4,165,OOo United States bonds were all unchanged on call.
