CITY ASSESSMENTS
RAISED OUT Of SIGHT

The state board of equalization raised
the assessment on railroads $1,000 per
mile. AS Stark county has nearly 50
miles Of main line railroad this means
a gain in assessment of about $3.50. 600
alone.
However, during the closing hours of
the session, after adjusting the assess
ments of all classes of property in the
state, the board family raised all sche-
>dule 12N per cent. according to a
Forum statement This was done
because it was necessary to raise the
assessed valuation of the property of
the state to s45, 600, 600 to secure the
Necessary revenue. Dickinson gets a
pretty skong boost as the board raised

Three ELEVATORS
FOR NEw ENGLAND

That New England is to be a market
for grain this fall is an assured fact
and will be good news to hundreds of
farmers who have felt that it would be
necessary to haul their Grain to market
on the N. p. or Milwaukee roads in
order to get some ready cash as soon as
the threshing is done. At the present
time the farmers are promised three
elevators, of a capacity of 40, 900 bushels
each. which ought to be sufficient to
handle all the grain that needs to be
marketed before the railroad is ready
to make shipments.
j. F. Whalan of Minneapolis was in
town Monday and stated that his COM
pany, the Columbia Elevator Co., was
going to put in 40 900 bushel elevator
in this town and would start building
just as soon as possible. This firm has
line Of elevators on the Milwaukee
and are well known company
J. E. Phelan, of the Western Lumber
4 Grain Co., announced some time ago
that his company would have an eleva-
tor in New England this fall. He said
the lumber was already selected and
would be freightd in and work COM
menced as soon as location was Sc
cured from'the Milwaukee townsite COM
pany. Mr.. Phelan's company owns
and operates string of elevators on
the Milwaukee and it goes without say
ing that this firm. which is so favorably
known in the country south, will handle
,its share Of business in this town. - -
Asa Gardner Of this town and o. B.
Dibble Of Bismarck were the first to
mention their plans for an elevator and
they will in all probability be ready
to receive W grain s n as a. s. soon as it is ready
for market. Mr.. Gardner has the ad-
vantage Of acquaintance, having done
business with every farmer who would
make this town his market place, and
it is no gamble that the firm of Gardner
g Gibble will have. a long string of
s.nAss'nA n~A1aa>.i
patrons. -
MIR. Whalen seemed very anxious to
get things in line right from the start,
and if possible would have let the con-
tract for freiehting the building material
