EOUALIzERS Find
A NOVEL WAY
INDEMNITY or SOME CLASSES or
PROPERTY COVERED UP
BY ASSESSORS.

Bismarck. N. ID, Aug. 1s.--An at
tempt was made TO equalize the ap-
praisement Of waterworlxs, electric
light plants. FIGURING mills and eleva-
tors, at the session OF the board OF
equalization. The attempt was futile
owing to the methods OF appraisement
employed by the assessors. Of the state.
Instead of showing the institutions
as they exist 1t was found that their
identity had been covered up in other
classes. The ground upon which they
stand had been assessed as real es-
tate, the buildings as structures and
the machinery as tools while the other
appurtenances went in under the head
of merchandise. The plan Is a novel
one to cover UP taxable property ac-
cording to the opinion of the board
and they did not hesitate to express
themselves. All the board could do
was to pass the TENS.

The total value of the elevators

"UN-A-QUA" IS
not SOCIALIST
AUGUST RREuNINGER WARNS IN
dams AGAINST JOINING
THAT PARTY.

Devils Lake, N. D., Aug. 16.-August
Breuninger, known to almost every In
dian in the country at Un-a-Qua,
passed through this city for Mis-
soula. Mont, for the purpose Of looking
over prairie lands with the ultimate
idea OF securing them for colony Of
900 Nenomirnee Indians under the gen.
eraI allotment act. Should the land
prove to be satisfactory, Mr.. Breuning-
err will form a little colony in the
west
He started out with the idea Of Sc
curing land either in northern Wiscor .
sin or Minnesota. However, SOM Ok
the indians were not satisfied with the
sections shown and it is probable they
will locate in Montana.
Mr.. Breuninger has taken as his
life's work, the uplifting of Poor Lo
and restoring him to his hereditary
rights, and is always working for the
benefit of his fellow men. In speaking
of the different political movements
that have a tendency to influence the
indian, Mr.. Breuninger said regarding
socialism:
II feel that I would not be doing
my duty II / did not take some steps
to warn the Indians OF the United
states regarding the so-called socialism
OF socialistic movement, that Is being
agitated throughout these United
States as a means to an end. have
talked with a great many Indians who
are voters and have explained what !
have seen and heard regarding this
movement at Milwaukee during my
stay of four months in that CITY,,
which is called the cradle of social
ism" in this country. Most of the In
dams are somewhat inclined TO this
movement, but when / explained their
actions and platform to them they went
away convinced that the best thing
they could do was to leave 1t alone.
II do not want 1t understood that /
am seeking in any way TO be a die
tator-each person has a right to think
as he chooses-but merely as a person
In a position TO warn those that may
be led astray without studying or
knowing what they are doing"

United States thirty years ago." said
Mr.. Peterson. Il lived In this country
until seven years ago, when attract
ed by the big stories of thirty bushels
of wheat to the acre in Canada, /
went 10 Alberta. Mr. Hanson and
have just proved up half section of
land each, and now we are after more
land in the United States. 1t seems
good to get back to this country. We
plan to make North Dakota our per-
manent home, If we are successful in
getting a claim on the reservation.
1t was lucky for us that thirty years
ago, we merely secured pre- emption,
for if we had taken a homestead, we
would have been disqualified from reg
istering for the reservation"
Many automobiles were kept busy
today taking the homeseekers out to
the reservation. The cars left Minot
