It contains a number of special articles each woek by the most compe
tent specialists in every branch of agriculture; departments devoted to
live stock, crops, the dairy, poulty yard, the orchard and garpon, farm
machinery, veterinary topicB, irrigation and the markets.
The farmer’s wife, too, has her share of space, with recipes and sug
gestions on cookery, dressmaking, fancy work, care of flowers and matters
particularly pleasing to her, while the children have a department edited
for them exclusively. Four or five pages are devoted to a complete review
of the news of the week, covering happenings at home and abroad, and
news in particular interesting to the great farming wost. Then, too, are
the stories, choice poetry and humor and all the good things that one likes
to read after the lamps are lighted and the day’s work is done.
An ideal Agricultural per
and Family Weekly year.

the ringsters. 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.”

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;”’
