Arkansas, at Hot Springs, and recent
ly at the State Fair of Texas at Dallas.
The Tyler Commercial College of
Tyler, Texas, is conclusivly proving
the superiority of their students work,
and their modern equipment over that
of other schools, by carrying of the
highest award in six consecutive con-
tests. at the State Fair of Texas at
Dallas the exhibit of the Tyler Com
mercial College occupied a greater
space than that of all the other com.
mercial school exhibits combined.
Its exhibit consisted of more than
four times the amount OF students
work in bookkeeping, Shorthand,
Telegraphy, and four times the a.
mount of practical Office appliances
of any other commercial schools
exhibit After witnessing the excel
lent work of their students, their
modern Office appliances and up-to-

easily understand why this school had
the largest day enrolment of book

HETTINGER
COUNTY TAXES
Restraining Order Issued

Restraining Order Issued
A late communication in the Bismarck
Tribune reads:
Parties in from Hettinger county say
a great deal of pressure has been
brought to bear upon the county COM
missioners of Hettinger county to reduce
the taxes OF that county for the year 1907.
The desire was increased somewhat by
reason of the large increase in the
amount of taxes over the year before
when only state taxes we're levied in the
then unsrganized territory. and further
in the fact that few people realize the
large expense incident to the erganiza-
ton of a new county, necessitating the
transcribing of all county records, the
purchasing Of thousands of dollars worth
of new records, building a court house,
roads, bridges, in fact getting everything
started, doing what it has taken other
counties twenty years to do. This state
ment, augmented by the desires of some
of the landed interests of the county
whose property is earning them nothing
at present, led the county commission
ers. at a meeting on Feb. 5th. to pass a
resolution reducing the amount of county
taxes ten mills or about one.6fth of all
taxes and providing for replacement to
those who have already paid.
This action was taken by the commits.
sioners in direct opposition to the advice
of States Attorney Geo. II. Stone, who
held that this procedure was illegal and
inadvisable, Notwithstanding the unusual
circumstances.
A temporary injunction has been
granted restraining the officers from tax
ing any action under this resolution
until its validity is established.
The taxpayers of Hettinger county
should understand, though, that no mat
ter what is done, they will receive the
benefit of it, if they pay their taxes at
once, and that the penalty for non-pay-
ment will attach to all unpaid taxes on
March 1st, and nothing will be gained
by delay in this matter. If the taxes are
high this year all can realize that there is
something to show for it, and that with
the sale Of the county bonds and this tax,
the financial condition at the end of the
fiscal year will be second to none in the
state and the taxes of next year will be
proportionately reasonable, says our in
fOrmant.
