DON'T TAKE CHANCES.
In order to guard against the spread of con
tageous diseases all dwellings should be
thoroughly disinfected after every case. It
moving into an old house, you know not
what disease germs may be lurking in the
place. Protect yourself and family by hav
ing the place disinfected. Formaldehyde is
recognized by the scientific world as the
most powerful disinfectant known and
and when used judiciously will destroy all
known bacteria without injuring furnish
ings in the room . Experience is required
to do the work properly. Half way meas
ures will not avail.
W. D. Hoover, at Howe's Furniture Store,
is provided with a Formaldehyde Generator
of the latest and best pattern, and is pre
pared to do disinfecting by the most ap
proved up-to-date method.

Tho Great Iimos Concert.
Lovers of good music, whether
they be grand opera goers, classic
ists, Wagncritcs or admirers of
the sensational, will all alike be
triad to learn that I lines is
coining here with his band on
Thursday afternoon next at the
opera house.
I lines is a great lellow to appeal
to all tastes, lie is a wonder at
exciting enthusiasm in all parts of
the house, in the boxes, the circle
uid the gallery.
Innes is something ol a paradox
lie conducts what is at orce the
'lighest class and the most sensa
tional of bands. The unique in
itrumctitation of the band and the
orcseutation of the most difficult ot
ymplionic music puts the band in
to a Held not before occupied and
moved it out of its class into tli.it
of theRreat Symphony Orchestras.
Rut Innes was too long a pupil of
Pat Gllmore to forget that the
secret of success in music, as in
everything else, is to olTcnd no one,
while giving everybody a taste of
what he wants. So, on tin same
light that Innes gives scenes from
"Faust," with his band ot fifty-live
players and such notable smgers
as Boydeti, Borghi, Albetti and
Zerni, he is liable to close the en
tertainment with the "Black
smith's Wedding," a lurid spec
tacle introducing red-shirteil anvil
beaters, electric anvils, lowered
lights, a church choir, singing birds
ind similar sensational features.

Hershey, Neb., Feb 8, 1902
To Tin: Tkihunk:
I have been waiting patiently for
-ome time for some one "to speak
iut in meetin" against thin least
law bill that is being pushed tor
.vard to become a law without a
vigorous protest from the general
oublic of the west.
It will be seen upon investigation
that it is an everlasting injury to
the western country. Mr. - Fort
and The Tkiiiunh have done well
a faras they have gone, but they
have not gone far enough.
The lease law should not take
fleet for the following reasons:
It would destroy the value of
deeded land (and it is cheap
enough now) by reason of the
leased laud being cheaper to hold
than deeded land. A man couldn't
afford to lay out the price for a
place when he could lease cheaper
than the taxes on his deeded land
would he, to say nothing ot the
principal and interest.
Again, supposing all of ti c best
lands were leased to stock i en, it
would be impossible lor a man to
hotnestcqd a quarter section ind,
surrounded us he would o; by
leased land, make a living on it,
Fie couldn't get more land for the
reason that it would be held cner.
ally by the bigger fellows and the
"Ireeziug out" process would be in
order. Considering the small
value his land would be worth
when final proof was made, he
would never make the start and
the result would be th- lease law
would kill the homestead l;.w as
dead ati the most grasping stock
company would wish.
A solid range under lease would
be exempt trom troublesome home
steaders. It would probably raise
a good deal of money :or the

government to pay a lot more
officers, do a great deal of big talk
ing and make some Btnall improve
ments in irrigation but this would
not compensate for halt the value
it would rob the general country of.
The county and state would
suffer, because the land wouldn't
be deeded in nc bundled years to
be taxed lor county and state. The
country is settling up slowly as it
is, but Mr. Fort's idea of allowing
one section of land to be cnteted as
a homestead would adjust things
as they should be. Within live
years all lands that are worth leas
ing would be held by actual settle
incuts. Instead of having cow and
sheep camps scattered over the
semi-arid west we would have
actual residents regularly located
with schools and social advantages
surely following, a development we
would all like to sec, benefitting as
it would the county and state a-j
well as the I'nited States.
If these fellows were half as in
terested in the small stockman's
welfare as they pretend they cou'.d
easily see that by enlarging the
homestead they could benefit the
actual settler and not give these
fellows that have headquarters in
some eastern city a hold in this
country at all.
Now Mr. Tiibune I will suggest
that yotijappnint a committee and
name the placa and date when liny
may meet and start a remonstrance
against this proposed lease law and
petition congress 'to allow a six
hundred and forty acre homestead
entry.
