State Board of Equalization Took Such
Action at Meeting Held This
Forenoon.
BOARD DID NOT DISTURB ROSS
GROSS AND CRO0KSTON CO.
Actions of This County's Equalizers
Criticised at Meeting of Board
Held Yesterday.

NJ oul, WV w. \oPSA w.
Pioneer.) -At a meeting of the
State Board of Equalization, held
this morning, the board decided to
raise the rate of assessment of Bel
trami county fifteen per cent. in the
entire county, which includes city
and town lots.
The board listened to extensive
arguments relative to the lowering Of
certain assessments made against the
Crookston Lumber company and the
firm of Ross & Ross, and after care
full inquiries announced that they
would not drop these assessments,
but leave them as they had been re-
turned by the Beltrami County Board
of Equalization.
It is said that the Crookston
Lumber company's representative
presented arguments to show that
the company paid one-ifth of the
entire taxes of Beltrami county.
The St. Paul Dispatch of yester-
day evening says of the proceedings
before the State board of Equaliza-
ton relative to assessments as re-
turned by the Beltrami county board:
Action of the local board of
equalization of Beltrami county
came in for some severe comment at
the meeting of the state board of
equalization today.
A complaint was filed with the
state board from the Beltrami
County Tax league showing that the
assessments, as fixed by the local
board of equalization, were anythin
but equalizing in effect. 1t is claimed
that the lands of the Crookston
Lumber company, covered with pine,
had been assessed at So per acre,
while some of the poorer land was
valued as high as $40 per. acre.
Furthur, the actions of the local
board are said to have been illegal
because the effect is to alter the
amount of the gross assessment for
the county.
The lowering of the assessment
of the Crookston Lumber company
lands is the sore point, and opinions
were hostile on this subject.
The fixing of the value of real
estate throughout the state was the
only item of business of the board
today. Many minor changes, both
increases and reductions, were sane
toned.
Assessments on the real estate of
the following counties were increased
in most cases 10 per cent: Aitkin,
Brown, Carver, Chippewa, Cotton
wood, Douglas, Freedom, Hubbard.
Kandiyohi, Lac qui Parle, Mile
Laos, Morrison, (25 per cent?,
Murray, Ottertail (33H), Polk,
Scott, Sibley (25 per cent?, Swift
GEO per cent?, Wabasha Is per cent?.
The following were reduced:
Cook (25 per cent?, Dodge, Kilt
son GO per cent?, Mcleod go per
cent?, Marshall, Meeker, Mower:
Is per cent?, Nicollet, Mobiles (25
per cent?, Olmstead az per cent?,
Winona and Wright, Pope Go per
cent?, Red Lake Us per cent?"
