Resolved, that We believe that a
more equitable, just and true assess
ment under any system could be bet
ter secured by some direct supervi-
sion and execution Of the laws en-
acted, by having state commission,
and we would recomn mend the estab-
lishment of a state tax board of three
members, to administer all laws for
the collection of state revenues and
to make such recommendation upon
the general subject of taxation as in
vestigation and experience may from
time to time suggest.
We further resolve, that a certain
responsibility for inequality of taxes
falls upon che individual tax payer
through lack of attention at the
proper time, and that to correct this
evil We are of the opinion that no
petition for abatement of taxes con-
tanning nothing more than a mere
equalization of values, should be
conside red by any board of commits
sioners after they adjourn as board
Of equalization.
Addresses were made by G. o. Jor-
gsnson, deputy state auditor, on the
need of a tax commission and by F.
J. McVey chairman of the Minneso-
ia tax commission .his Recommended
tions being much the same as those
of Prof. James Boyle Of the state..un-
iversity. The feature of state tax
commission as we'll as county SUI
pervisor were brought out and the
workings of the Minnesota system
we're dwelt on. McVey had facts
and figures from both North Dakota
and Minnesota to support his state
menus.

Win Hold Joint Inspection.

The state live stock sanitary board
is making arrangements for joint
INSPECTION of cattle and live stock at
the Minnesota transfer, intended for
interstate shipment into this state.
Under the present system there are
sometimes two inspections, and If
cattle are condemned for tuberculosis
after reaching this state they become
a total loss to the shipper. The new
arrangements promises to be Of bene-
ht to the importers Of live stock.

ADMITTED TO CITIZENSHIP
Five Applicants From This County.
Other Relative Mat.
tOIS,

questions IelaGlng 20 appllcatlOnS
for citizenship in the United Estates,
are being raised before the courts of
this state more frequently than here
tofore, by government agents who
are sent to see that the new laws
are conformed with. The application
papers Of every person who desires
to become a citizen and enjoy the
privileges Of this country will be
more closely scrutinized hereafter
than ever before. The new regula-
tions Of the department at ..Washing-
ton have peer. made for various good
reasons. The object is to keep re-
cord of any person who may have
been an undesirable citizen of mis-
native country, and who might be-
come such in this country.
Judge Burke admitted to citizen
ship last week the following appli-
cants whose papers we're found to be
regular: Heinrich Odenbach, Paris;
Johu Bitz and Michael Jechert of
Medina; Christoph Frederick OF
Gackle; Gottlieb Moos Of Paris.
Fred Helms and Lorenz Schrodel
failed to get their naturalization pa
pers largely because their applica-
tions were defective in tile matter Of
legal witnesses. These applicants
can cure their defective papers and
no DOUBT be admitted into CITIZEN
ship in due time.
The next naturalization day. for
residents Of this county will be on
April 9Th, when Judge Burke will be
present for that purpose. Seven ap->
plications have already been filed
with the clerk of the court and 9TH
ers are expected before that time.
In the above mentioned .list Of sue
cessful applicants, all proved up on
homestead claims which they have
been holding in the county showing
that their intention is to become
bona fide residents.
The question of Mongolian origin
with two residents of this county is
still unsettled as far as their partic-
ular cases are concerned. One of The.
applicants fur citizenship is Hassen
Eli, who is holding claim near Me-
dina. Ee was born in Caffardenis, a
small village about 80 miles SOUTH
west of Damascus In the Province of
Palestine. The department at Wash
ington is somewhat in doubt es to
this.applicanL and his case has been
referred to the United Sta es district
attorney.
The petition Of Mustapa Mounnan-
ar of Medina for citizenshi y has been
denied because he failed TO appear at
the proper time for hearing Of his
application, indicating that he had
abandoned the same. 1t is probable
that he would have been received 1n-
to citizenship otherwise.
1t is said that a mum Der of Japs in
the northern part of the state have
taken out their first papers and are
holding down homestead claims and
of course under our naturalization
laws they will never be able to get
their second papers.
One of the hardships which the
passage of the new law in regard to
citizenship appears to imposed that
when a foreigner dies before perfect
ig his citizenship his widow becomes
eligible for citizenship the same as
her husband, but In order to take ad-
vantage of the same she must have
made the same declaration as her
husband prior to the passage Of this.
new act.

A New Field For wireless.

Reliable reports come from Tahiti
to the purport that capitalists having
commercial interests In the south Pa
cific have begun movement to estab-
fish a network of wireless telegraphy
among the scattered islands of that
region Of the globe. 1t is proposed to
include the commonwealth of Austria
LA, the dominion of New Zealand. the
Fills, the New Hebrides, the Solomon,
Samoan, Cook, Society and Marquesa
Islands and the phosphate islands of
Ocean, Pleasant and Makatea.
1t Is expected that the various gov
ernments having possessions in the
south Pacific win aid in the establish
ment Of the system. Negotiations
have already proceeded so far that the
success Of the efforts seems to be al
most assured. AS the nearest availa-
bic ocean cable Office to Tahiti is at
Auckland, $3.50 miles away, from
which steamship of the Union line
Of New Zealand arrives at Papeete
once every twenty-eight days, and a
direct communication by a steamship
Of the Oceanic company with San
Francisco, 3,65s miles distant, is had
once In every thlrty-six days, it will
be understood how deeply interested
the French colony Of Tahiti and its
dependencies are In the complete sue
cess Of these negotiations. Other
groups of islands are equally inter
ested. There win probably be ten or
twelve circles in the system, the
largest having a radius of 1850 miles
and requiring at each station an en-
CINE of sixty horsepower. The fact that
$4,000 Of the proposed capital Of $780,
900 has been subscribed by owners Of
phosphate beds in the territory to be
covered is evidence that real business
stands back of the enterprise.

UpIifting the Rural LIE.

I'VE have a great deal Of wholesome
talk about the uplift Of rural life"
said the governor OF the Empire State,
Charles 3. Hughes, at the Trumans-
burg fair, and he added, my opinion
Is that rural life is very high up now,
and we can put it little higher up to
advantage"
There has been some discussion Of
the wisdom Of President Roosevelt's
action In appointing a national COM
mission TO investigate conditions OF
rural life and the status OF the farm
ers Of the country with view to legis-
Iation by congress on the subject.
Opinions as to the advisabllity Of his
course may differ. but there can be no
question that In one way or another
something ought to be done to make
rural life more attractive and stop to
some extent the drift Of the popula-
ton away from the country and to-
ward the great cities. Mr.. Roosevelt
thinks that the tendency toward con-
gestion In the large centers of popula-
ton is not altogether because Of the
belief that more money is to be made
In the city than in the country, but
that the greater attractiveness Of life
In large community has much to do
with 1t. BY making country life less
full Of drudgery and more Astounding
In opportunities for enjoyment and In
tellectual improvement he thinks much
could be done to keep the young peo-
pie on the farms and stimulate a ma
dOnal development that would be
healthful in every sense Of the word.
Few viii dispute the accuracy Of Mr.
Roosevelts estimate of conditions.
whatever they think Of his proposals
as to improving them. AS Governor
Hughes says, our American rural life
Is on very high plane now, but it is
not as high as it might be or as 1t
needs to be y some check is to be
imposed on the constantly increasing
exodus from the country districts to
the big centers of population.
