pay more than the original assessment
of the district-and it is equally proba-
BILE that the surplus never gets to Con-
stantinople.
But the fact is that for many reasons
we can never have absolute equality in
assessment and taxation. The ''actual
value" of most things is anything butan
easy problem. 1t is said that the stock
values of the Great Northern railway
have decreased many millions of dollars
during the last six months, What was
the real value of those stocks six months
ago and what is the real value now?
A man has store in which he has in
vested say $4,000 capital. He carries a
$4,000 stock. Hard times comes on
and the price of goods rapidly depreci.
ate, soon he goes bankrupt, his capital
all wiped away and perhaps only pays
his creditors 80 cents on the dollar
What was or is the actual value? What
should he have been assessed before the
hard times and what now? What is a
town lot worth for assessment purposes
A month ago wheat was being sold here
for sixty-6pe or seventy cents; last week
it was selling one day for ninety three
cents. What is the actual value fol
assessment?
Theseiare but few OF the problems.
How are we to get "actual value?" We
are free to say that we,do not see any
way out. Somebody may get up sys
tenn of equal taxation sometime, but no
body has as yet ACTUAL value'' will be
all right when we can tell what actua
values are. In the mean time, guess we
will have to guess-as usual.

"AcTuAL VALUE" ASSESSMENT

Last week at Grand Forks, the county
auditors had a convention and among
other business connected with their
official work, they pretty nearly passed q
resolution favoring the assessment of al
kinds of property at full value.
Perhaps, the reason that it did not
pass is that possibly some one happened
to remember that the present salary
basis of the auditor is made upon the
assessment-and therefore it might look
as if the auditor had special interest
in having property thus assessed, as un-
doubtedly in most cases it would about
double their present salaries. However,
we don't really believe that they we're
thinking of that, in fact it was rather
that they had forgotten it, that SO many
favored it.
The reason of the proposed action was
that they perhaps more than most per-
sons, by the duties of their offices, know
and see the inequalities of our assess
ment. It is.one of the oldest questions
OF government to make equality in tax
alton. For really, this is what the aud
itors are trying to get at. The rate of
assessment does not matter, it is equal
lity, that all shall bear the burden in
proportion.
But az we said it is an old question;
it has never yet been solved and per-
haps never will be solved nntil the day
when all men shall have learned and
will practice the golden rule. Now men
are largely judges Of what is their own
share Of the public burden and natur-
ally they are somewhat preiudiced.
Most any man is willing to pay in pro-
portion to his neighbor-bn not any
more. Hence when the assessor comes
round the assessed is more anxious to
know how much his neighbor has put
down on the list, than he is to list his
own.
Perhaps the Turks have gotten q
method which in the end brings our the
nearest equality. The nation is divided
into districts, and each district is assess
ed SO much. The head man then divides
his district into smaller districts and
towns and villages. Each Of these is
assessed q proportionate share Of the
district tax. The headman Of each 81

The reports from Bismarck are to the
effect that the supreme court has de-
cided that the State Temperance Com
missioner law is unconstitutional, on the
general grounds that the legislature can
not give powers to state officer that in

that this knocks Commissioner Murray

THE BOY AS A STREET LoAFER.

About the worst thing for a
boy is for him to form the habit
of loafing on the streets; for in
addition to the habit Of idleness
that it begets it is sure to lead
TO other vices. We see very little
hope for the boy that habiiually
stands around on the streets. 1t
will not be long before he will
be using profaue language, puff
ing cigarettes, and doing other
indecent things which are dis
creditable.. Greenwood Journal
Our esteemed contemporary is
exactly right. Many a boy is
ruined by habitual street loafing
1t is only question of time
when he becomes q disgrace and
menace to society. AS a remedy,
the Journal suggests: :
Give your boy employment.
Keep him everiastinsly at 1T,
nd ne will lie contented and
remain at home. We have heard
of parents in Greenwood who are
seeking employment for their
boys with view TO keeping
hem out of mischief. They are

thoughtfulness.
Lancaster, like Greenwood 4,
has boys whose parents would
do we'll to put them 10 some kind
of work in order to keep them
rom constantly loafng on the
streets and about the depots.
But we do not believe that we
have any girl loaIers, as seems
10 be the case with Green wood,
Judging from the following de-
liverance OF our contemporary
