n. P. Will HAVE
lOPAY SURVEYS

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1.-THE
Northern Pacific Railway company
will be required to deposit with the
interior department $64,512 in repay,
ment of the cost of surveying forty
townships of railway granted land in
Montana and forty-two townships in
Washington. Instructions to demand
the amount were today issued by Sec,
rotary Ballinger.
The lands designated for survey are
in Montana in the south central part
OF the state Immediately north of the
Yellowstone National park. The
townships in Washington are declared
to be heavily timbered. The greater
part of this. land, says the statement,
issued by the interior department To-.
day, although granted to the North
ern Pacific under it's original grant,
has escaped taxation by the states in
which it is located by reason of never
having been surveyed. Legislation
passed at the last session of congress
provided for the survey of these lands
Railroads, under the law, are required
to advance the money to pay it's pro-
portion of the cost Of these surveys.
The order issued today for surveys of
granted lands will be followed by 9th
ers from time to time, 1t is declared,
affecting various companies.
