THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT, FEBRUARY 26, 1903. ft II 4 j : j HARDY'S COLUMN li - -N 1)1 Smoke Your Heat With a Brush. The new method of Smoking meat has come to stay. It has already come and staid so long in many parts of the country that there is no longer any more thought of going back to the old method than of returning to the bid fashioned ox cart. Wherf you nmoke your meat with our Modern Meat Sm3ker, you accomplish all that could possibly be done by the old method and you accomplish some thing that the old way does not ac complish. The meat is better pro tected BgniHst decay and against the attacks of germs and insects. It tastes better, it looks better, and it will bring more money. TheJ old method of smoking dries out; the meat and reduces the weight. The shrinkage is often one fifth, and this runs into money when you consider the amount of moat the average farmer usually smokes. Our Modern Meat Smoker is practically condensed liquid smoke which can be applied in a minute with n brunh or a sponge, and that end the process. You run no danger of losing by tire or theft, and save both time and money. Our Modern Meat Smoker is put up in quart, bottles only. One bottle will cover 250 to 300 pounds of meat. - SAMPLES FREE We have put up a number of free samples and shall be glad to give you one of them. If you are not willing to try the smoker on all your meat this year, try the sample at leasu and make comparisons. x We sell everything cheap $1 pat ents are still G4, C9 and 7i)c.

'30 Days Treat ment for $2, The legislature of the state of New York has a queer tax bill just on the point of pa3sage. The governor and other party leaders are agreed upon Its terms. It does away with all di rect taxes for the payment.of state' expences and substitutes a tax on real estate conveyances, on all mortgages and on Inheritances. It is estimated that between six and seven millions will be received from these three sources. The tax is to be ten cents upon every hundred dollar convey ance, a half one 1 per cent on every dollar of mortgages and one cent tax on every dollar of Inheritance. Why i3 it that liquor sellers respect the license law of government and at the, same time trample under foot and spit upon municipal and state law. At the present time, it Is reported there are 'over thirty persons in the city of Lincoln who have a government li cense to sell liquor, but no state or city license. Drunkenness, gambling and prostitution are triplets of the same family. The only way to enforce the law against these vices is to offer a reward of twenty-five dollars to any detective who will find witnesses that will convict the law-breaker. That is the method of general government. The waee-earners are still kicking and striking for more pay and less work. They don't seem to want the government to take charge of the coal mines, railroads and factories for then they never could strike but once and after that they would have to set themselves to work and be satisfied with their own earnings. It is re ported that a majority of the labor strikers are of foreign birth. They are getting two or three times the wages, at the same work, their friends are eettine back in Europe. A girl from Sweden had been back visiting and when she returned declared she could pay her passage both ways and return with more money at tne en a 01 one year than she could earn there.

FURNAS, Brownville, Neb. France, Germany and Russia have raised their tariff on American goods as high as our tariff is on 'their goods. They admit goods of the same kind from other countries at a much lower rate. They can get all the bread and beef they need from Canada, South America, East India and Russia. Equal justice is a noble principle. One of the greatest gushing oil wells has just been opened near Van Wert, O. The oil is flooding the country. It is being hemmed in by embankments. Refined oil will now go up two cents again. A Texas company has leased a mil lion acres of land in Canada, at two cents an acre, for twenty-one years. They are preparing to put up 300 miles of wire fence this season. The land is located in Assiniboine valley. Cattle and sheep men are goixig where they can rent and fence pa-lures. More than a thousand men will be em ployed. Canadians are men of sense. We can well remember the conten tions back in the thirties up to the sixties in regard to the admission of new states. A northern free state had to be balanced by a southern slave state. In fact every acre on this con tinent purchased or in any way -an nexed to the original independent ter ritory had for its ruling motive the extension of slavery. The slave own er saw that white births and Europ ean imigration was strengthening the north much faster than the south. When Missouri was admitted it was done by a compromise to the effect that the slave states would not ask for any more slave territory north of the south line of Missouri, and when Kansas and Nebraska began to fill up with northern settlers it was then that our civil war was planted. There is now the same feeling among the millionaires of the east against the ad mission of western states there was in the south against the admission of free Kansas and Nebraska. They know if the four western territories are ad mitted as states they will send eight western senators and not one will be a millionaire or in harmony with the present eastern rule of our govern ment If three are admitted now, they know the Indian territory will soon make another one. The senate was the only part of our government the slave-holders thought to control. So it is today with the millionaires. They know that western men cannot be bought as easily as eastern men.

If equal protection cannot be given to all, certainly those not protected should not be required to pay for pro tecting others. It 13 so today, the farmers of the west have to pay tar iff on everything they buy, whether made here or abroad, and at the same time get not one cent benefit from tariff themselves. H. W .HARDY.
