If the ringsters are to hold tho republican party respon sible for taxes levied for the years 1891 to 1893 inclusive and give the populist party credit for levies made in tho years 1899, 1900 and 1901, then from this point of view the re publicans havo decidedly the best of it. We havo but to refer to the record to bear out this statement. All taxes levied except, the state and connty, are local taxes, such as school, township and village, the levies for which are made by the local school, township and village boards. The levies for state taxes are made by the state board of equalization. As has been stated, the levies for county purposes are made by tho board of supervisors. An examination of the record dis closes that the county levy for the years I89I-3 inclusive is twelve and three tenths mills on each dollar assessed valuation, which would make a tax of $1.23 on each $100 assessed valuation, whereas the county levy for 1899 and 1900 is 15 mills, or $1.50 on each $100 valua tion and in 1901 it is fourteen and threS tenths, or $1.43 on each $100 valuation. Any tax payer receiving one of these letters making similar com parisons will find on investigation that the same reasons as heroin mentioned will apply to his own case. Dishonesty and dishonorable methods in politic, us in business, havo only short lived success—a fact which the desperate gang of laud pirates will soon realize. Independent: The hundreds of honest republicans in the county are cordially invited to co-operate With the peoples independent party in their effort to continue the good county government of the past eight years. Uudor the aegis of bogus reform newspapers there lurks a gang of pop highwaymen that have made a cold steal of $10,000 of Holt couuty tax payers’ money within two years. Tho Independent is invited to take a squint at exposures of pop rotten ness in The Frontier and keep an eye on what will follow, then write again about, the pop “effort to con tinue good government.” - -*--*•*- - Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder World’s Fair Highest Award. (Continued from Dage 1.) were added by Mr. Eves to make up for a portion of the rake off that went to the county attorney. Further: Mr. Eves sets the notice in typo two sizes larger than the type used for this work the world over. Set in the type universally used in legal notices it would have come about $25 cheaper even in the long form. To illustrate we take a line of the notice as ho has it and below set it in legal notice type with a portion of the next line: in said petition the plaintiff seeks kijjHlUJjK'tit^^h^dlahitil^eoksjLo^forecloso The 280 lines in this notice would be materially reduced set in legal notice type, technically known as nonpareil. The total amount of tax against the laad involved in this action is only $174.20. The printer’s fee of seventy-two dollars was tacked on and the land owner had to pay the fiddler. The Frontier doesn’t know what per cent rake off County Attorney Mullen is getting, hut from the length of the Bradley notice now running in the Stuart Herald— which paper, by the way, Mullen and Mike Harrington started and sent a mugwump up from O’Neill to run it lie hasn’t reduced the price any. This notice contains over 900 words and a legal notice covering the same ground that would pass muster in court need not exceed 300 words. Mullen seems to have fallen in line with his predecessor and is reaping his harvest off of the dear people, to whom the reformer loves so much to express his tenderness. The notices cited are only two instances out of the hundreds of others that might be showed up, and which The Frontier will throw light upon later. ♦UEASONS WHY NOTICE IS LEGAE--IS this notice sufficient and would the court ac quire jurisdiction of the defendants? To de termine let us examie the statute. Sec. 5671 provides that the notice “must contain a summary statement of tho object and prayer of the petition, mention the court wherein it is filed and not ify the person or persons thus to be served when they are required to answer.” Does it not state the court wherein the action is pending? Does it not state the object and prayer of the petition? Does it not state the answer day? Suppose the owner of this property living in Iowa received a copy of this notice. Would he be in doubt as to what was being done or attempted? He sees at a glance that action is begun to foreclose on his land be cause tlie taxes were not paid; he is notified of the amount due, of the court it is pending in. Ky the prayer he is notified that the plaintiff prays that ho be required to pay what is due or that his land be sold to satisfy the same, and advises him when to answer. The notice is clear. The letter and the spirit of the statute has been carried out. Abridgement of liberties of the people is the remedy some have to offer as a cure for anarchy. Nothing would prevent a cure more surely nor breed auarchy faster. It is despotism thut has fathered all the auarchy that has been in the world. That America is not a breeding grounds of anarchy as Europe is is due to the individual liberties guaranteed its citzens by a free government. Anarchy is as sensiless as it is breathless. But their is a cause for it. Europe, the home and birthplace of anarchy, has been dominated for centuries by despots. One -man rule has deprived the in dividual of personal liberties and at the same time the potentates have deprived themselves of natural freedom until they require an army of soldiersiconst-autly on guard and dwell in prison fortresses for fear of being struck down by the hands of anarchy. A republican govern ment,such as prevails in this country, is not favorable to auarchy. It has rut her been a safe and fovorable rendezvous for plots against the lives of European rulers. Therefore, nothing should be done to make our government after the similtude of those in Europe. To do that would only aggravate the disease. Some revisions iu the immigration laws and drastic measures on the part of police and other peace officers in suppressing anarchistic speeches and literature seems the most effective way of eradicating the plague. Anarchistic publications should be treated by the postal authorities the samo as obscene literature. The spectacle of the pop papers of the county howling about the ‘‘republican ring” reminds one of the old saw of the robber crying, “stop, thief;”’ Great Acreage In Cotton. Last year the area in oetton was the biggest on record, being 23,805,629 bales, and it was an increase from be tween sixteen and seventeen million acres fifteen years ago.
