B. 188, in- troduced by J. F. T. O'Connor of Grand Forks, and creating a North Dakota law, uniform with the sales other states. The act was drafted under the supervision of the commission on uniform state laws, whose purpose is to remove so far as practicable difficulties arising from different laws in different states cov- ering the same subject. The statute | has been widely agopted, and in giv- ing a place on North Dakota's statute books, the state has taken a step which may be experted to increase the volume of business crossing the ite line. any local controversies will be obviated, and more certainty will be enjoyed by both buyer and seller in the knowledge that there is 1 fundamental law covering — their} transaction, The uniform sales act covers such cases as the one which recently found } its way into the supreme court, when. a North Dakota farmer, after order- ing a tractor, changed his mind, and notified the company he desired to cancel, Not until the case had cost all goncerned much time and money spent’ in litigation, was it decided by the supreme court's ruling that the jse te! ment. are being received by this Dairy men generally favor the bills passed at the recent legislative n providing for licensing and ing in connection with the cream business, and we are busy preparing bulletins explaining methods of con-}° ducting these tests.” BANK GUARANTEE ACT. {have been in existence since 1902, and The senate bank guaranty act, un- ment of such corporations, upon the | year, in the final rush, bills intro- filing of the required annual state-) duced for this purpose were lost sight ment, paying any accumulated fees; of, and the secretary of state was due, and a small ‘reinstatement tax. | confident until Saturday that the duty Every year secretaries of small cor-} had been overlooked.

NEW TELEPHONE COMPANIES ‘To date there have been reported to State Auditor Kositzky the names of telephone companies which here- tofore have escaped taxation. Some of these companies, quite large ones, have paid no taxes. There has been a general misunderstanding, particu- dertaking to guarantee deposits in larly on the part of mutual telephone ment of these corporations. This ; tedious process. North Dakota banks, is now law, Gov- ernor Frazier having signed the bill, which carried an emergency clause. The original bill, introduced by Sena- tor Drown. as Senate Bill 217, was much amended in committee, and as it goes on the statute-books it repre- sents the ideas of prominent bankers companies, which have heen inclined |* to consider themselves exempt from taxation. Four companies which had been paying no tax were reported to-} day from one small community, in re- sponse to the circular letter sent out by the state auditor last week.
