MANY FARMERS
DISAPPOINTED
More Seed and Feed Applications Re-
ceived by County Commiss oners
Than Can be Honored-579 Receiv-
ed to Date

Up to the present time, the county
commissioners have received SIS
seed and feed applications from the
farmers Of Ward county. AS this
will exceed the amount of bonds
which the commissioners according
to law could sell, good many of them
will be disappointed.
The commissioners this week are
considering those applications and
will notify all applicants as to whether
their applications have been rejected
or accepted. If accepted, an order
will be given for $3.50 worth of seed
and more feed, and the farmers win
be allowed to secure that grain where
it is most convenient. 1t will be nee
essary to sign for all orders given,
and the auditor will make arrange
ments with the local banks to handle
the orders, so that the farmers Will
not have to make unnecessarily long
trips to Minot. The seed and feed
ought to be available within 4 few
days.

Investigate.

The business circles in Minot are
much excited over the report that the
Grand Trunk Paific, one of the three
great transcontinental lines of Can
adam railroads, is negotiating for an
entrance into the state, and, will in
all probability run their line thru
Minot. Those who are in position
to know, say that there is no hot air
in the report, and 1t looks as though
there will be something doing.
President Sherman Of the Commel.
cial club has learned that the road
has secured a charter to run into Por.
tai and the road will be constructed
to the boundary this year. The plan
OF the company it is. said is to run
line from Portal to Ignite, nine
miles, thence to buy the Crosby line
to Berthold and make traffic arrange
ments with the Great Northern over
the Minot-Fargo cutoff to the Twin
Cities and Chicago.
The Commercial club is considering
sending a committee to the head office
of the Grand Trunk Pacific to let
them know that Minot will welcome
them here E
This looks good to all OF us. The
minute the line enters Mtnot, that mo-
ment property will be worth a great
deal more than it's present value.
It looks as though Minot is destined
to become a great railroad center.

THE NFST0S TAX
:. COMMISSION
BILL PASSED

Perhaps there was not a better
pleased man in the legislature than
R.. A. .Nestos when the tax commits
sion bill passed the Senate on the
last day of the session. The bill
had been indefinitely postponed, a
clincher put on and it surely looked
to be a dead one. To revive the bill
ordinarily, requires two-thirds vote
Senator Steel of Mohall, however, ap-
appealed from the decision of the chair
and the appeal carried by a majority,
allowing the bill to pass. It's good
law too.
MIR. Nestos returns one of the very
strongest members of the house and
if he is returned again, his friends
declare that he stands an excellent
opportunity Of being elected its
Speaker.
The tax commission bill is very i'm
portant. 1t provides for non-parti-
san commission of three men to be
appointed by the governor and con-
firmed by the Senate, whose salary
shall be $4,000 a year each. They
are to spend their entire time assist
ing assessors and all others interest
ed in taxes within the state and it
shall be their duty to make study
of the tax needs of the state and make
such recommendations to the legis-
lature.
Another bill introduced by Mr..
Nestos known as the wide open tax
amendment, passed. It gives the
legislature power to classify all pro-
perry for taxtation. Mortgages,
notes, money, bonds and stocks may
be taxed at q lower rate, thus inducing
the holders to give in the property.
Unless the owners do this Of their
own free will, It Is utterly impossible
to locate them. VI

T0MPK|NS AND
THOSE TAXES
Minot Man who Sold the Public
Library Site Says Taxes Were not
Due-What he Did With the $1,000.

Members Of the public libary board
appeared before the county commits
sioners yesterday and asked that the
5000 real estate taxes against the
lots bought from j. H. Tompkins
for library site, be abated. The
commissioners are considering the
proposition.
The Reporter last night accused
Mr.. Tompkins of getting $1,000 for
his property, without paying the taxes
on the property or the money. Mr..
Tompkins said to an Independent
representative:
II got $1,000 for the site, and sold
the property last June. The 1909 taxes
had been paid, and l considered that
the 1910 taxes would not be due until
Dec. /. l never pay my taxes before
they are due. AS far as the $1,000
are concerned, that has no bearing on
the case. However, l took that
amount and applied it on my Main
street business block. 1 think l am
paying taxes on that building all
right. This year my taxes amount
ed to over 800 ana have paid them
too.
IF the taxes are abated it will mean
but $40 to the county anyway, az the
city has instructed the city attorneys
not to interfere in case that this is
done.
LAS to my moral obligation,
either had right to pay those taxes
or | did not. This was a business
propagation. It is no moral question
whatever. Had I been expected to pay
those taxes I certainly would have
done so. Besides, I donated $1,000
towards the library site and think |
have treated the board fairly. and
believe that they will agree with me
that l have"

The county dads have been making
history for Ward county during the
past week very rapidly.
The hearing of the county commits
sioners was held Monday before
Judge Leighton. and the restraining
orders which the Judge had issued
last week we're withdrawn and DR..
Carr relieved from his duties as
Trustee.
The commissioners then leased the
hospital to community of Catholic
sisters, who are now in charge, being
represented temporarily by Mrs NJ.
Laflin. Miss Windell has been ask
ed to remain at the hospital for a
short time to conduct the affairs until
the Catholic Sisters arrive.
The Sisters agreed to pay the
county $135 month for the use of
the property and at the end of two
years, to turn the buildings over to
the county Is as good condition as
they now are. All physicians are
to be given the same privileges.
Ward county patients are to be ad-
mitted in wards for ten dollars week
or in private rooms for fifteen dollars
week, with charges for medicines,
dressings, etc. In case of an opera
ton, upon county patient, IS must
be paid for the use of the operating
room.
A society from the Lutheran church
made proposition to the county for
the hospital, but the Sisters offer
was accepted.

FAR REACHING EFFECT.

Probably the Bond bill will have a
more far-reaching effect upon the pol
itics Of the state than any other meas
ure passed by this assembly. 1t does
away entirely with the convention
system, even the election of delegates
to the national convention being ac-
complished at the polls. It also pro-
vides for popular expression OF the
people as to candidates for nomina-
ton for president and vice president
and makes the Office of national COM
mitteeman elective rather than ap-
rointive at the hands Of the state
convention.
