PERSONAL SERVICE

Personal service human touch in transaction
cannot be done by the mail order houses Their
business is accomplished by means of the printed
word and the mails alone, which medium complete
y eliminates their studying the personal wants and
desires of a customer at close range. Such is not
the case with the local merchant. Constantly is he
striving to give every of his customers the best
possible personal service, knowing full well that
such a practice wins for him many friends and
customers.

Emctuatimg Markets

Mail order house listngs are always Subject to
change with notice due to fluctuating market quo
tations. Consequently when one forwards an order
to mail order concern for an item which the
marking has changed, it necessitates endless cor
respondence between the parties concerned before
the matter finally settled, and often ending in the
customers dissatisfaction. This is not true with the
local merchant which eliminates the adjustments
common in mail order house dealings.

Strange Monster

Lima, Peru. JAM, 2.-The tidal
waves which recently devasted parts
of the coast of Chile cast upon the
beach at the same time a strange
denizen of the deep whose like has
not been seen in these waters in
many. years. 1t would appear to be
"a cross between whale and a tu1-
tie. .'"
Fishermen at Lurin, % miles from
Lima, reported huge cetacea,,
floundering in the shallow waters of
the bay.s Then they sent out word
it was an unknown monster of the
sea, and that they had killed it.
The director of the natural his
tory museum of the University CT
San Marcos and the official taxi
dermist made a trip to Lurin for
the purpose of studying and classify
ing the strange visitor They found
an animal with the body of a whale
but with a head and extremities re-
sembling those of turtle. After ex
they came to the conclu-
sion that it belonged to the family
of "Balaenidae" cetaceans, inhabi.-
ing the South Pacific waters. 1t is
supposed that it was carried along
by the Humboldt current and thrown
up on the beach by the tremendous
surfs following the tidal waves of the
Chilean earthquake.

INJUNCTION OF
ELECTRICC CO.
is DISSOLVED
Judge Nuessle Holds Com
pany Has Other Method of
A Remedy in Tax Suit
MUST PAY 1919 TAXES

In an order handed down in dis
trict court, Judge Nuessle vacated
the temporary restraining order
issued in favor of the Hughes
Electric Company of Bismarck at
the time George H. Wallace, tax
commissioner, ordered the sheriff
to proceed to sell the property of
the company because it failed to
pay taxes for the year 1910.
In the order Judge Nuessle held
as conclusions Of law that the
plaintiff electric company ''has a
plain, speedy and adequate remedy
at law and that this court has
therefore no power to grant relief
by means Of the equitable remedy
of an injunctional order, and the
court does therefore, on motion of
Gordon V. Cox, attorney for the
defendants, order and Judge that
the temporary restraining order
be forthwith vacated, and that the
defendants have judgment against
the plaintiff for the dismissal of
this action, together with the costs
and disbursements to be taxed and
allowed by the clerk"
The tax which the Hughes com
pany said was assessed ~rOngfully
for 1919 was $13,895.77. The
The Bismarck tribune., 1923-01-03
amount offered was $5,789.90, ac-
cOrding to the record.

COl uluE w Iuc IcCOI u.
The Hughes company claimed
the assessment of its property for
1919 was above, in proportion, that
Of other utilities in Bismarck. The
court held this to be true, but de-
cided the electrict company had a
remedy in law by paying taxes un-
der protest and bringing action for
relief.
In the record of the testimony,
the case was started for-the Hughes
company by C. l.. Young who said
with regard to the assessment:
THAT the city assessor of Bis
marck assessing the property fixed
the value of the same at the sum
of $16O,S70; that such assessment
was approved and ratified by the
city board Of equalization of the
city; that the county board of
equalization increased the assess
ment 140 per cent, and fixed the
assessed value of the property at
the sum of $387,38S, and as equal
lied certified the assessment to
the. state board of equalization and
that the state board of equalization
fixed and approved the assessment
at $3Sz,3SS; that the board of rail-
road commissioners of the state
of North Dakota in a proceeding
duly instituted before it heard evil
dence upon the value of the pro-
perty owned by plaintiff and upon
such hearing the board determined
that the physical value of such
property, as of July 1, 1919, for
rate making purposes, was $31, ,959;
that such value, after such deter
mination. and throughout the year
for which the taxes were levied and
assessed. was the basis upon which
plaintiff was permitted by the
board of railroad commissioners to
earn returns"
The company offered to pay taxes
upon the same valuation as was
fixed on the plant by the railroad
commissioners for 1920, which he
said was $322,606.
The valuation of the plant fixed
recently by the railroad commits
sion engineers, which was follow
ed by court action to prevent the
railroad board from fixing rates
on this basis. was about $3S7,O00.

Berlin, Jan. 3.-"Germany's so-
called prosperity IS no more real
than brick painted with gold issa
genuine gold ingot. 1t is appearance
without substance"
The man who said this to me was
no German politician, talking about
reparations, but Herr Felix Deutsch,
active head of the greatest single
business concern in Germany-the
famous Allgemeine Elektriche Gesell-
schaft-hughest electrical trust in the
world-and president of one of Ger
many's biggest banks.
"To illustrate,' continued Her,
Deutsch, show present prices and
conditions affect people:
"Take a business man with small
capital who formerly bought ma
chine for his factory for 10000
marks. He put aside 1000 marks
yearly amortization fund, SO that
when the machine wore out he had
enough to buy a new one. If the
same machine costs him today 40O,-
600 marks, even if he can pay the
purchase price, he cannot put aside
the amortization fund. When the
machine is worn out, he is through.
"Or say man has 100000 gold
marks capital in his business. Ap-
parently he is doing splendidly, earn
ing 100 per cent on his capital, but
with the fall in the marks value his

gether are worth only 100000 gold
marks loser.
"People say the great industrial
cnocerns have money abroad. This
has been greately exaggerated.
"True, big undertakings have to
have dollar credits. Since the Yer
sailles treaty, with its. amputation of
territory from US, Germany does not
produce many raw materials. She
has to buy not only copper, lead,
WOOL, cotton and fax, as before the
war, but iron, zinc, coal and a great
deal more of her food.
"This excess of imports over ex-
ports doesn't betaken prosperity. A
nation, like an individual, which
buys more than it. sells, is getting
deeper into debt or consuming its
capital.
