BANK IS TO Be
SOLD FOR TAXES

jamestown, May 5.-Judge J. A. Cot
fey, of the Fifth judicial district has
just handed down an order denying
the restraining order asked for by T.
l.. Beiseker against A. F. Belcher,
treasurer of Wells county to enjoin the
sheriff from selling SO shares of stock
in the Wells County State bank for de-
linquent personal property taxes.
This is one of the most interesting
cases which has come to trial with
in the state for several years. The
case was argued by George E. Wal
lace of the tax commission and by
B. F. Whipple, states attorney of
Wells county, for the defendants,
and John o. Hanchett and John O..
Lane for the plaintiff. The court
refused to issue the restraining or
der on the ground that the remedy
by way of an Injunction to restrain
the collection of personal taxes is
not a proper remedy but it allows
the plaintiff to file an exception in
the case.
In 1913 T. L. Beiseker, who is one
of the wealthiest men in the state
formed the bank of Wells county.
This. bank had a capital of $4,000,
a surplus fund of $4,000, undivided
profits of $4,000 and reserve. fund
of $4,000. On May %, 1913, O. M.
Thompson, the accounting officer of
this bank, made return to the city
assessor of Fessenden showing the
amount of capital stock to be $4,000,
the surplus, reserve fund and undivid-
ed profits of only $500 and stated
that the bank had a net investment in
real estate of $500. The county audi
tor in accordance with the statutes
provided in such cases where any per-
son returns a false statement to the
assessor, proceeded to correct the as
sessment, and charged the owners of
the property on the tax list with the
proper amount of taxes, assessing the
Wells County State bank in the sum
of $13,458 which was on the basis of
40 per cent of it's actual and true val
ue in money.
1t appears from the plepadings of
the plaintiff that the Wells County
State bank was given notice of a
time to appear when they would 10
given an opportunity to be heard on
this raise in assessed valuation but
when Mr.. Thompson showed up, he
refused to make any statement, re-
fused to be sworn and refused to
produce any of the records of the
bank. For this reason the county
auditor proceeded to let the assess
ment stand as corrected. The taxes
not being paid, so shares of stock
belonging to T. l.. Beiseker were or
dered sold for the taxes. Tax Com
missioner Wallace in arguing this
case took the position that the court
was without jurisdiction to issue an
injunction and that Beiseker as the
plaintiff had no standing in court
of equity. He also advanced the plea
that under the laws of North Da-
kota Beiseker had plenty of oppor-
tunity and plenty Of remedies in a
court of law and that it was his bus
mess to have paid the taxes and
then to have recovered the amount
which he regarded as unjust in a
suit of law. This position is sus-
tanned by Judge Coffey's holding.

The beneficial effects that will
result from the inspection and
plating, by public service COM
mission engineers, of the 5000
railroad and highway grade cross
ings in Washington is indicated
by action taken in the first three
counties completed, Whatcom,
Skagit and Snohomish.
In these three counties 80
crossings have been listed for
elimination and 1913 for improve
ment. A definite policy has been
adopted by the commission in
segregating crossings for elimi-
nation or improvement. In the
first class are placed those cross
ings over which both railroad
and highway traffic attain GER
tain degrees of density. and
where a minimum view of 500
feet is not obtainable of approach
ing trains. The expense of elm
mating these dangerous cross
ings, by grade separation, will
be divided between the county
and the railroad.
In the class scheduled for i'm
provement various plans will be
adopted, including the reduction
of grades on sharp approaches.
the widening of approach road
beds, removal of brush, stumps
and other obstacles to view, in
stallation of automatic warning
signals, etc.
The work of mapping the 5000
crossings in the state now is ap-
preaching completion, and in
each county the crossings for
elimination and improvement will
be listed as those in the first
three. Members of the public
service commission believe this
work will remove the cause of
some of the most tragic accidents
that occur in this state.

NOTES OF MINING

Sig Dilsheimer, L. E. Jesseph
and Bliss Phillips, who purchased
the Cleveland mine some five
years ago at tax sale for SIS, have
bonded the property to Occur
d'Alene and Spokane parties for
$4,000 on a long time royalty
option. A 50-ton concentrator
will be installed. 1t is said there
is enough lead ore in sight to pay
for the mine.
The Chloride Queen, on Clug-
ston creek, owned by R. E. Lee
and Paul LaPlant will be devel-
oped this fall with a view to
winter shipments. The mine is
said to be rich in lead carbonates.
A report comes from the Old
Dominion that a rich ore shoot
has been encountered on the sur

and the discovery. The lead car

A seven mill state tax levy, to
raise 81, 218, 954 state taxes. has
been announced by the state
board of equalization.
This is a reduction of 81, 1O8,-
sos from the 8.07 mill levy of
1914, which in turn was a reduc-
tion of $610,078 from the 8.87
mill levy of 1913, making total
reductions of more than 81, 70O,-
600 in the last two years. due to
economical administration Of
state affairs and sane methods of
finance.
Although the total tax levy
this year has been lowered by
more than $1,000,0O0, the
levy for military purposes
has been increased from m
IL to 20, in line with recon-
mendations of Adjutant General
Maurice Thomspon, to enable
Washington to bear it's share in
plans for national preparedness
for defense.
The great reduction has been
made in the general fund levy
which has been lowered to LIS
mills, but in spite of this reduc-
tion, the fact that the general
fund now has a surplus of 81, 6OO,-
900 will enable Governor Listers
plan of retiring the remaining
state Indebtedness to be carried
out as soon as legislative author
ity is received.
A slight increase has also been
made in the school levy, which
will enable the state for the first
time to discharge in full its OBJ
legation of providing $40 state aid
for each child of school age, as
guaranteed in the barefoot boy"
school law. The school funds
this year came within $50, 900 of
providing sufficient money. In
past years the shortage has been
more than 5000, 900.
The various items Of the
state levy are as follows:
General fund, 1.25 mills, ST.
$780, ,097, reduction of approx
imately 81, 240, 900.
School fund, 2 mills, $2,062,-
555, an increase of approximate
ly $4,000.
Military fund, 2 mills, $780,
526, an increase of approximate
ly $93, 900.
The remaining levies which
are approximately the same as
last year:
Permanent highways, 1.5 mills,
81, ,546,916.
Public highways, l mill, ST.
031, ,277.
Institutions higher education,
1.05 mills, $1,082, 841.

county, with its great need for
roads, should be heavily repre-
sented, for it is likely that the
next session of the legislature
will make an appropriation for
the continuation of the Inland
Empire highway in this county,
and it is only fair that sufficient
appropriation be made to COM
plete the road between Spokane
and Colville, so that other sec

This lecture is under the auspices

ven's cafe Saturday at $50.
Everybody is invited.
Congressman C. G. Dill will
spend Sunday and part of Mon
day in Colville, leaving Monday
afternoon for Northport. Mr..
Dill hopes to meet as many peo-
pie as possible on his trip, and a
chamber of commerce luncheon
will be held Monday noon, at
which matters of interest to this
section will be discussed. The
luncheon will be at IL sharp at
Star cafe, 25c.
Horticultural inspection and
education will not receive much
money for next year in Stevens
county, according to the estimate
of expenses prepared by the COM
missioners. Provision is made
but for one inspector, who with
the use of a flying machine and
a telescope might be able to cov-
er a part of the county in a sea-
son provided the orchards are
lighted at night.
The failureiof so many orchard
lists in this state has shown the
necessity for expert work among
the orchards and growers. The
soil is all right, the climate is
right but the growers have not
all known the business, nor been
able-to keep pace with the or
chard pests. diseases, and i'm
portations of diseased nursery
stock. 1t means money to all
the people of this county to have
the orchardists make money, and
a careful inspection of conditions
will oftimes save an orchard
from destruction.
