FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 1917. BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE ORTHERN PACIFIC “WUST. GE VALUES ~ OF ITS SNOWFENCES Estimates Demanded in Letter From State Board of Equal- ization The physical valuation of a snow fence; the actual worth of all of its depots, roundhouses; shops and sec- tion -buildings are points upon which the (Northern Pacific must inform the state board of equelization not later than ‘Aug. 1. This ultimatum was di-} rected to Mr. Saunders of the North- ern Pacific upon unanimous vote of the board of equalization members who attended an informal meeting at the capitol Thursday. The company. earlier in the week had requested permission to omit an- swers to questions covering these sub- jects in blanks which tne state board has mailed to all railway companies. A Northern Pacific representative in- formed state officials that the com- pany had never made such valuation and that it possessed no means of procuring the same on short notice. The board. members in attendance yesterday — Governor Frazier, State Auditor Kositzky, Treasurer Steen, Commissioner of Agriculture and La- bor Hagan and. Attorney General Langer—felt that this information should be forthcoming and directed the secretary to so notify the railway companies. BANQUET? SFFRAGTS.
