NORTHERN PACIFIC WILL BUILD
X. TO NEW HIGH. LINE DEPOT
a." ~ THIS MONTH.
$780, 900 Gasoline Motor Has Been Or.
dered-company to Furnish Rails
and Ties for Track.

That there will be another street
car line in Valley City is now an as
sured fact. A gasoline motor has been
purchased and the arrangements for
laying the track has been made.
It has long been a matter of con-
lecture as to how the railroad COM
pany was going to get; passengers
from the new high line depot to the
city and the developments of the last
couple of days has shown their hand
in the matter. The company already
has part of the track that will be
used which is the line running north
east OF the city through the gravel
pit. From here a line will be ex-
tended to the big trestle or near it,
and thence northwest to the new de.
pot.
The line will be operated by private
parties but the railroad company Is
said to be interested in 1t to the ex-
tent of furnishing the ties and the
rails for the construction Of the ex-
tension.
This line will bring passengers to
q point about where the down town
depot Is now located. The motor car
is an immense affair and will seat al
most as many persons as an ordinary
railway coach and is said to have
cost about $4,000.
The car has been purchased and
the track will be laid in few days
and the new. line will be put in opera
ton at the opening of the high line for
passenger traffic which will be on May
%, when the new passenger schedule
goes into effect.

STATE HAS 100000
COMING FROM COUNTY
REBATES AND REFUNDS OF TAX
Es HAVE NOT BEEN REcoD-
Ed IN OFFICE.
Other Counties in State Are in Same
Fix-Deficit is Only on Paper, How
ever.

There are a number of counties in
the state that are deeply in debt to
the state according to the figures on
the books in the state auditors OF
fee.
There is a state law to the effect
that whenever there is rebate in taxes
made by the county commissioners
that the county auditor shall immed
lately notify the auditor of the state
how much the rebate effects the
amount the state has coming from the
county and there will be a credit
made.
There are number of counties
where this report has not been MADE
for a great number Of years past and
succeeding county auditors have fall
ed to make reports simply because
those who preceded them have not
seen fit to do so.
There will be an effort made on the
part of the state auditor to see that
these reports are made in the future
and that the records are kept straight.
Burleigh county is charged up with
between twenty and twenty-one thous'
and dollars in this matter. OF course
the money cannot be collected from
the county but technically it stands as
q debt to the state.

WILL GET A PIANO.

Gus Selvig will probably get pia-
no as a prize in the Daily News vot-
ing contest at Fargo. He was fourth
man in the contest. He found that the
local candidates swamped him with
votes on the last night of the con-
test in the race for the automobile.
One or two of the candidates dumped
in subscription money to the tune OF
a good many hundred and rolled up
votes by the millions-too much for
him to go up against successfully.

OUGHT TO PASS The PIE,
VIM. Collins Thinks More Democrats
Should Have a Bite,

Grand Forks Herald: Will
liam Collins of Bottineau, ma
tional committeeman for the
North Dakota democrats, was
in Grand Forks last night on
his way to Bismarck to partici-
pate in the conference of the
faithful over the appointment
of officials. 1t has been persis-
tently stated that Frank A.
Wilson. state oil inspector,
must go, and it is probable that
others will be decapitated.
1t is not question of fitness.
The democrats have been out
of office since statehood with
the exception of the Shortridge
administration, which was
largely populist affair. A
few of the faithful were re-
warded during Burke's first
administration, and it is argued
by many of the unrewarded
that it is a good time to pass
the pie around. National Com
rnitteeman Collins shares this
view. He thinks that Burke
could, if he felt so inclined, fill
appointive offices with new
men and find every one of them
satisfactory from party and
business standpoint.

Buford Tribune: The state
press is jumping upon Frank
Ployhar, of the Valley City
mesRecord, and repre-
sentative from Barnes county
because he would abolish the
publication of insurance state
ments. If Representative Ploy-
har will also introduce, and get
it passed to law, a bill to
compel all state institutions to
have their printing done upon
bids to be submitted to every
printing office in the state,
the Tribune will approve of

his pet measure. The printing
of the Valley City normal
school has been given to the
Times Record for the past
decade at a profit of four to six
hundred per cent, yet no kick
has been made by the country
printers. The wealth accu1nu-
lated by the owners of that
sheet, from normal school
printing, has made them rich
and arrogant. Let the legis-
lature do it's whole duty and
puncture this gold mine that
other printers may receive
some benefits from being over
taxed.
