As ResuItOf Conference North
Dakota Grain May Go
to the Lakes
May Not Be Necessary to
Build Farmers Elevator
at Superior u

Superior, Aug. Sit is probable
that in the near future grain shipped
to the head Of the lakes from North
Dakota and elsewhere may be in
spected under the Wisconsin rules by
the Wisconsin Grain and Warehouse
commission whenever the shippers or
handlers so desire. At conference
held yesterday in Superior between
members of the Wisconsin Grain and
Warehouse commission and repre-
sentatives of the elevator and grain
interests in that city and which was
attended by w. C. Macfadden of Fargo,
it was decided to instruct Judge Luse,
the attorney for the commission, to
draw up papers making application
for a Identification of the Injunction
issued by Judge Sanborn htfe fed
eral court in Chicago prohibiting the
enforcement of the Wisconsin grain
inspection law. 7.rl, st.
The judge is to be asked to so mod
ify his injunction as to provide that
rgain can be inspected and weighed
by the members of the Wisconsin
Grain and Warehouse commission
whenever the owners, consignors or
purchasers so request. The applica-
ton is backed by the grain interests
of Superior as well as by the bankers
and farmers of North Dakota and by
the Superior Board of Trade and it is
believed that there is a good chance
of success, as several who are well
informed on such matters say Judge
Sanborn would welcome an oportu-
nifty to modify or reverse the inunc-
ton which he previously issued.
While in Superior, Mr.. Macfadden
also discussed with number of prom
inent Superior business men the sub
ject of forming corporation for hand
ling grain. The Superior men are
anxious to have associated with them
North Dakota men in whom the grain
shippers of the northwest would have
great confidence. Under present con-
ditions the opportunities for such a
corporation would be almost unlim-
tied and Mr.: Macfadden believes that
it would be an excellent proposition
Off North Dakotans to take up.
Should the present plan to have the
Injunction of Judge Sanborn modified
or reversed succeed, as Their is every
evidence that it will, it will greatly
benefit the North Dakota grain ship.
pers and they will secure the kind Of
inspection of which they have long
| been DESTROYS. ..
| Owing to the fact that the railroads
are to be compelled to open their Su
lperior elevators to the public it will
be unnecessary for the North Dakots
Bankers association and the NORTH
Dakota branch of the American So
ciety of Equity to build an independ
ent elevator of their own at Superior
as has been planned. 4,

City of Grafton, Respondent,

: Go ct AL, Appellants.
/ Filed Aug. 9, 1907
1. In an action by a municipality
to condemn property for street pur-
poses it is unnecessary to allege or
prove the public necessity for such
street. . The power to determine this
question has been expressly delegated
to the legislative department of such
municipalities, and its determination
is conclusive. The only question of
necessity for the court to determine
is as to whether the particular prop
erty sought to be condemned is nee
essary for such public use.
2 The city council of respondent
passed an ordinance declaring it nee
essary to extend one of it's streets
across appellants right of way in such
city, and it is held that such ordi-
nance was properly received in evil
dence, the same being competent for
the purpose of proving the official de-
termination by the council of the ne
cessity for the crossing. ..'
3. In such action the railway COM
panies are not entitled to recover
damages for structural changes, such
as grading, approaches, planking
crossing, etc., made necessary by the
opening of such street, the duty Of
making such changes being required
by statute enacted under the police
power of the state. Sec. IA, Art. Of
the Const. of this state, which pro-
vides that "private property shall not
be taken or damaged for public use
without just compensation having been
first made to, or paid into, court for
the owner" does not require the allow
ance of such items of damage. .--&
The true rule for determining dam
ages in such cases is, that the rail-
road company shall be compensated
for the diminution in value of it's ex-
elusive right to the use, for railway
purposes, of the property sought to be
condemned caused by the existence
and use of the street.
4. An ordinance may be proved as
to its contents, as we'll as to it's due
passage by the council by the intro
duction in evidence of the original
record of such ordinances properly

RAILROAD ASSESSMENT.

The state board of equalization has
made its assessment of the railroads
in the state, leaving them at the
same valuation as fixed by the state
board last year. The assessors and
county boards of equalization. of the
state nave returned real and per-
sonal valuatio as last year. AS all
classes of property of this nature in
crease along about the same line.
If the real and personal property of
the state has not increased in value
the railroads have not increased.
And if the assessment by the sta :e
hoard of equalization of real and
personal property last year was a
fair assessment, then the assessment.
of tie railroads was fair assess
ment, and whatever criticism has
been made must fall, when all the
circumstances are taken into con-
slderation.
The Tribune has commended, as
consistently as it has been able to
do, that the assessment of railroads
about the same basis as the assess
ment of real and personal property
on the present basis. 1t has not
sought to argue that the assessment
at real value is or has been .prac-
tieable, but on the other hand has
pointed out where the present laws
of the state make it impracticable.
In theory, the real value assess
ment is correct: In practice, it has
been a general custom through the
state and through many states to
assess property at only proportion
of its real value. When this is the
cease, the Tribune has pointed out
that all classes of property must be
treated alike. An assessment which
fixes the value of railroad property at
hundred per cent and the value OF
other property at twenty per cent
common sense justifies such an as
& sessment, and the man who would
urge it is either unfamiliar with the
law, or deliberately willing to dc
an injustice to follow an unreason
able and ill-founded public opinion
There may well be question as
u to the actual physical value of rail
& roads. But there are ways of OBJ
tanning information. The building Of
railroads. the value of grades
bridges, stations, and other thing:
that go to make up railroad, am
ascertainable. The cost of reproduc
ton is ascertainable. Figures wer'
presented to the board that woult
tend to establish the value of tn
properties of the road in this stat
at $50, 900 mile. A recent repor
of an adverse senate committee L
Minnesota tended to establish tn
value of the properties at $685. 10000
mile. This included expensive tern
inals that we do not have in Mort
II Dakota. Taking the higher figures
u. the railroads, which are assessed
an average of about $4,000 a mil
are paying On the same per centag
of their value as other propert.
No one can ask more. No one shout
ask more. Whoever does cann'
support his contention in either la
or equity The railroads are entitle
to the same treatment accorded oth'
property holders. They should
subject to the same restrictions ar
regulations. Evidently this was II
view taken by the state board al
Il in the opinion of the Tribune it W

The Journal of Finance this week
discusses the Standard Oil Com
pany'sfine of 500, 100000 and its ef-
feet On the stock market. 1t says it
has affected the entire stock market
and caused a slump in values OF
many times the amount of the fine.
Probably the Standard Oil party by
buying stocks at the existing low
level of prices could in few days
manipulate the market SO as to real
ize a profit many times the amount
of the fine. The fine is certainly in
teresting on account of its immensely
and as being the largest fine ever
paid by any individual corporation in
the worlds history. 1t is S9,OOO,0OO
more than the $40. 900, 900 the United
States paid Spain for the Philippines;
$4,000 900 more than the indem-
nifty Great Britain paid the United

Louisiana Territory, out Of which are

ord. And also the question has been
asked would the Tribune keep it
up?" Most assuredly the Tribune
will keep it up-and go further as
the development of the times war
rant. And there has been no finan-
cial help from the source, except the
patronage of the subscribers and aid
vertisers, neither has there been a
desire for any other such aid as
the management of the paper has
utmost confidence in the future of
the country and it is only preparing
for that which must necessarily fol-
low in the general development of
the country and Bismarck as a bust
ness city.
1t is all we'll enough to talk about
the political interests of Bismarck
but it is the business growth and
development that is now so urgently
attracting the attention Of he Trib-
une as well as every good citizen.
So in order to meet the chans
| conditions that are now here, not
to come, the Tribune has gone to the
tremendous expense. But another
feature.
The people of the country in which
this paper circulates have been spend.
ing much money for the necessaries
of life and too much of this money
has gone to eastern mail houses and
the people are now getting ready to
| spend thousands where they former
| ly spent hundreds and it is a wise
business policy to keep as much of
the money as possible circulating at
home. 1t is all very we'll for the
newspapers to decry the mail order
business and many other commerce
cial evils of the country. 1t is all
sounding bombastic talk of the evils
| of such things, but it is only talk,
and North Dakota buyers have the
cash to pay for something more sub
stantial than talk and they are
demanding it-even if they have to
send to mail order houses for it.
Now the people are not to blame
for this matter half SO much as the
merchant who has failed to get a
clear insight into the situation and
to promptly head off the difficulty
by intelligent and consistent adver
Using.
But the move now on foot by the
merchants of other parts of the
country is calculated to meet and re-
move the existing tendency of this
evil and it is believed that the mer
chants of this part of the state are
| alive, too, to their real interests and
hence the Tribune has added another
department to the already efficient
force, and will send men out to talk
this thing over with the merchants
and to aid him every way possible
in keeping his trade at home ane
to also increase the advertising pat
1 ronage of the paper.
To do this the management viii
, select men of wide experience il
advertising and writing and adver
tisement editing and desires to as
sure it's patrons that the desire i!
to carefully investigate the matter
and to see what can be, done for thu
best good of all parties concerned
From time to time there will b
| more upon this subject.
