north DAKOTA Will
ERECT new CAPITOL
IF MEASURE PASSES
Minute Levy on Taxable Prop.
erty Will Provide $35o,ooo
per Year to 1896

North Dakota will have . new cap
itol building II an appropriation bill
introduced in the house today passes.
The measure provides for q levy
Of q tax to create q fund to erect and
equip a new capitol building. The
tax will be levied upon each dollar
of all taxable property within the
state for all years beginning In 1929
through 1885. Tf1e tax would be
3e/loo Of one mill on every dollar
Of taxable property. All revenues ac-
cruing from the tax. including the
interest would be put into the fund
J. The special found would be known
q the ''state CAPITOL Building Fund y
Sponsors Of the bill claim that
4S5O. 900 per year. plus interest, could
be obtained for the fund basing their
figure on the average value Of eacl,
quarter Of land In the state.
In 1927. the average value OF each
quarter of land was $2,382. Leaving
.36 mills for the capitol building
makes q tax Of .85 cents per quarter
each year or 50 cents for each $1,000
valuation.
North Dakota now has slightly
more than $780, 900 In q fund for the
erection Of new capitol.
State Auditor John Steen pointed
out ct the opening Of the 2lst legis-
latiye assembly that no increase Of
appropriations In the general fund
this year would make 1t possible to
introduce the levy without increasing
taxes in the state.

SCHOOL BASKETBALL.
DISTRICT shift seen
Under New Plan. Bismarck and
Mandan Will Probably Enter
State a. Region Winners

Is districts and four regions when the
districting committee Of the North
Dakota high school league meets at
Fargo next week, according to j. G.
Gould, superintendent Of Mandan
schools, who is q member Of the COM
mittee.
At its semi-annual meeting in
Grand Forks . few months ago, the

the state In some system other than
the eight district plan, believing that
more representative teams could be
brought to the state tournament II q
change were made.
Though It Is not certain Just now
the committee will divide the state.
It Is believed that the 16 districts and
four regions would be the best plan.
Two best teams from each region
would be eligible to enter the tourna-
ment under the proposed plan. This
would make 1t possible for both Bis
marck and Mandan TO enter the state
meet.
The committee, II it adopts this
particular proposal, next Saturday
will decide where the l6 district
tournaments will be held and how
the two best teams In each region will
be selected.
The four regions presumably would
be tho southeast, southwest, north

Representatives Of state mining in
tcrests are making It plain that they

pared 10 do everything possible to

Gated, the state general fund getting
IS per cent and the county tuition

Is located getting the remainder.
The law provides that the state
treasurer shall be the collecting agent
but also lays some duties on the state
tax commissioner IN enforcing the
bill.
Although the bin refers to the tax
a. q license tax 1t Is generally con-
strued Is q tonnage tax since the bin
provides that the license shall Be IN
