ing Installed In Both Instances -
One Good Result of Short Crops.

Farmers in the vicinity of Alta in
the northern part Of Burleigh county

CONDITION Of BANKS Of
NORTH DAKOTA IS GOOD
STATE EXAMINER MAKES PERIOD CLOSING JUNE
NEW SYSTEM OF COMPARISON UsE0-PARTIAL CROP FAILURE
is DISCOUNTED BANKERS.

State Bank Examiner Knudson has
issued his statement on the condi-
tons of the state banks in North
Dakota for the term ending June 80,
1910, and the statement shows an en-.
couraging condition. The comparison
this term is made with the last past
term, which closed March 20, 1910.
Heretofore the state ,1ents have been
compared with the ones year prev
,ious, but as the department has had
a number of requests to have the state
ments compared with the previous
ones, that system will be adhered to
in the future.
The resources and liabilities of the
banks of North Dakota are not as
large as they were at the last call for
report, but this is but a natural con-
dition on account of the season of the
year, as there is large amount of
money drawn from the banks by the

ability of Supt. Scott of the G. N
road to be present on that day the
meeting was postponed until Thurs.

bic arrangement for the closing of the
stations for such time as will be nee.
essary. will be arrived at.
According to the law of the state
the stations must be kept open if a
certain amount Of business is done
during the year. Formal protests
against the closing of the stations at
Lanby, Mckenna. Easily, Backoo,
Mapes, Glasston and Union have been
received by the board.

SIMPSON WILL TRY
RUSSELL CASE AGAIN
SAYS HE FEELS CONFIDENT HIS
CLIENT WILL WIN OUT
IN END.
Case Is Now Up to Supreme Court Of
State-Fee'ing in Boston All in
Favor of Dan Russell.

Senator l.. A. Simpson of Dickin.
son, who was in the city yesterday,
expects to go east in a few days to
resume work on the Russell case. The
senator. frank enough in politics, dis.
cusses the Russell case with the re-
ticience Of a lawyer, but admits that
he has no doubt of the outcome-in
which opinion he is backed by the
opinion of the press and public of
Boston. But in spite of his reticence
he is quite free to admit that the de-
tense is altogether untenable.
1--WE will try the case alb novo, from
the beginning" said the senator. 1T
was tried before in the probate court
and will now 60 to the superior or SUI
preme court. We have been denied
the right of trial by jury, but that
will make no difference in the long
run. AS to the merits of our conten-
tion-so far as the people of Melrose
are concerned-why, it may be said
that not before in the history of this
country has judge been hung in
effigy because of decision-which is
what happened in Melrose."
The Russell case. which was report
ed at tlength in the columns of The
Tribune, while it was on trial, stands
by itself in the history of this country
for it's sensational features and the
bitterness with which the claims of
the contestants were fought. Its only
parallel is the great Tichborne case
in England. which dragged through
the courts for years-and which was
decided ultimately against the claim
ant. But there is this difference be-
tween the Tichborne Case and the
Russell case. that in the latter the
claimant is undoubtedly the heir and
is known to be by hundreds of North
Dakota people. There is a marked
similarity in the attitude of the de-
Tense and that in the Tichborne case,
the detective agency having charge
OF the defense at Boston having taken
the Tichborne case as text and try
ing to discredit the plaintiff by pro.
ducing as many spurious claimants as
the occasion may require.
Dan Russell, the claimant, is keep
ing hotel at Melrose and is accepted
by his fellow townsmen for what he
processes to be. the co-heir to the great
estate.

individual depositors for various uses
in connection with the harvesting of
the crop and other fall activities. The
statement, compared with the one a
year ago, shows good growth of
business and deposits and stronger
condition than existed at the close of
business June 80, 1909. That the liza
bilities and resources of the banks of
the state are less than one million
dollars less than they were at the last
call speaks we'll for the way they have
been managed during the summer

ENTERPRISES
ARE IMPROVING IN spain

New York, Aug. 2.-Apropos of the
present conflict between the Vatican
and the Spanish government, Norman
Hapgood, editor of Golfers Weekly,
who has just returned from a trip
thu ough Spain and other parts of
Europe, said of the industrial cOndi-
lions in Spain:
They are improving, but the wider
split between the government and the
Vatican becomes the more rapidly
they will improve. New methods.
both of business and agriculture, have
been introduced, particularly in south
ern Spain. and the country would
forge ahead If it could shake off the
clerical influence. But the govern
ment has a tidy little fight on its
hands in it's efforts to do so. King
Alphonso is a progressive all right,
but the queen mother is reaction
airy and she Yields powerful in
fluence."

592 as returned by the county boards
over the returns by the county boards
last year. In the assessed valuation
thirty-eight counties show a total of
$149,433,237, or gain of $16,290,247
over the returns sent in last year.
The valuation of real estate as left
by the state board last year, how
ever, was $156,941,201. which shows
that even with the increased acreage
the county boards have not made as
high a return by over sixteen mil
lion dollars.

The state board o. equalization met

The state board o. equalization met
yesterday morning with all members
present except State Treasurer Bick-
ford, who is out OF the city. but
expected home in time for the me,
ing this morning. The only business
done was the organization of the
board and the confirming of the ap-
pointment of C. H. Olson as the Off
cial stenographer.
The board then adjourned until 10
O'Clock Wednesday morning.
While there are a number OF cOun'
ties that have not sent in their as
tor, enough have been sent in to give
some interesting figures. One Of
them is the schedule showing the in
creased acreage sown to crop this
year over last year. With twenty
counties to hear from or nearly one
half, there is shown an increase in
acreage of 637, 702 acres which means
that with all the counties in there
will be shown an average. gain OF
over a million acres sOWn to grain
over that of last year.
1t is not likely that there will be
many increases made by the state
board this year over the assessment
made in 1909 and some of the coun-
ties are going to see that there is no
advance made along the lines that
effect them at least, and the advance
guard of county auditors and chair
men of county boards of commission
ers have already commenced to arrive
in the city and will remain here until
the board has decided on what to do
with their prospective counties.
In the same assessment of farm
lands it appears that with but few ex'
ceptions the county boards have kept
close to the amounts decided upon
by the state board last year.
In 1909 the board was in session
for nineteen days, but it is likely
the work will be done in shorter
time this year. The state auditor has
secured a number of new ideas in the
way of schedule which will greatly
facilitates the work of the state board

farm land as returned by the county
board in 1909. as left by the state
