WILL WE EVER SEE
CHEAP MEAT AGAIN?

The editorial writer of the Denver
Stockman thus speculates upon the flu
ture meat supply of the United States
cheap meat again? This. is a question
that is being discussed by those familiar
with the conditions surrounding the meat
food supply of the country. There is
plenty of argument to show that while
prices will be lower than at present. the
low prices of only few years ago have
passed never to return The two requi-
sites for cheap meat under present con-
ditions, are cheap corn and cheap stock
There is reason to believe that with the
increased use of corn by the world, that
cheap corn as it has been known in the
past IN this country will never again be
seen in the future. The settling of the
great arid public lands of the west has
gradually made cheap stock Improbable.
The modern meat food animal is bred
especially for the purpose and good
chance for cheap meat in the future
That chance Is buried in the great unde-
veloped west. Government assistance to
irrigation and high prices for meat are
the inducements that may encourage the
western stock farmer to build up the sup
ply which will eve ntuaiIy lead to reason
able prices, possibly not cheap as in
the past. but still low enough to allow the
people to eat freely of this food. With
cheap meat food has passed forever.

For County Treasurer.

w. j. Davies today announces himself
as a candidate for county treasurer on
the Republican ticket. No better candi-
date than Mr.. Davies could be wished
for. He is II young man who has lived
here for long term of years, clean and
able, and no voter in the county will be
afraid to entrust the affairs of the treas

farly well fitted for the place and if he
receives the nomination in the conven-

Assessing Railroads

ers Suffer and Corporations
Get off Easy.

In a recent letter Mr.. w. H Grad
dock. mayor of Kansas City, kas., said:
Assess Kansas railways same as Missou-
ri railways are assessed and the state
could reduce its tax more than $4,000
OOO.''
This statement has attracted attention
and caused an investigation and disclos-
ure.
The auditors reports from Missouri
and Kansas show that in Missouri the
railroads pay 1926 per cent of the total
tax of the state, while in Kansas the rail-
roads pay 1879 per cent of the total taxes
of the state.
1t is found that the Santa Fe main line
in Missouri pays 1921. 81 in taxes per
mile; while the Santa Fe main line in
Kansas pays S432 80 in taxes per mile
The Santa Fe main line in Missouri is
regarded as the best part of the road of
that system. The only part of its Kan
sas line which will compare with it is
chat between Kansas City and Topeka.
which pays $795.2I in taxes per mile.
The entire 1900 miles of the Santa Fe
system in Kansas, including many
branches upon which only two
trains a day are run, pays $263.9 81 in
taxes per mile, or almost $40 per mile
more than the 27I miles of main line in
Missouri.
The Rock Island pays $156 35 in taxes
per mile on it's lines in Missouri and
$267 Al in taxes per mile on its lines in
Kansas. This includes all lines of the
company in each state, by far its best
lines being in this state.
In comparing the assessment of the
counties in Missouri and the adjacent
counties in Kansas along the Kansas
Missouri state line it is found that the
property of the Missouri farmers is as
sessed at a much higher figure than the
property of the Kansas farmers The
counties in Missouri which border on the
state line are: Atchison, Holt, Andrew.
Buchanan, Platte, Jackson, Cass, Bates,
Jasper, Newton and Mcdonald The
counties in Kansas which border on the
line are: Doniphan, Atchison, Leaven-
worth, Wyandotte, johnson, Miami.

EAST AS SEEN BY A KANSAS MAN,


Or. o. III. Simpson returned Saturday
last from visit in the east, where ne
went to attend the
Impressions National Dental As
of the East. sociation, and to
get a glimpse of
high life at the summer resorts After
spending half life time in the west he
naturally had some curiosity regarding
life of the sseffete east His Impressions
of the far east are not calculated to make
him dissatisfied with the west.
Taking it all around DIR. Simpson is
not very enthusiastic over the eastern
states and their big cities. He sized
things up as he came to them, crops,
land, stock, buildings, cities, faces and
ideas. His first impression was that
the corn tops across the country tried to
keep on a level. AS the altitude beca me
lower the corn grew higher. When 60
ing up the eastern slope it grew lower
ind lower. In the far east he found that
it had not appeared above the surface of
the ground yet. He found that in many
parts of the east the problem of fertili-
zation is bigger than that of
moisture is IN this country. They have
to manufacture the soil and in these two
particulars it is about stand off between
eastern StaIeS ana western Kansas for
crops, while in the matter of stock raising
there is no comparison. He found dist
riots where the Kansas beef steer and his
sister would have been first class side
show attraction.
DR.. Simpson visited New York City
and soon became homesick. He searched
a whole day looking for
Hunting for an American, but he

body foreigners. If he
had been in London Paris he might
have hoped to meet struggling Amer
Ican- good many of the short grass
fellows go oyer there to look around, but
in New York City it seemed out of the
question. He went to Philadelphia and
there found some Americans but even
they were not the genuine article. Itoc-
CURED to him then for the first time tha.
to find real representative American the
search must be made west of the Miss
issippi river. This is or has been the
home of the boys who fought in the
great wars, who have fought through the
vlcissItudeS of pioneer life and who with
their children are now bringing the last
stnew country to the front of the pro-
cession, who are utilizing more modern
inventions and methods than any people
on earth.

for the entire state of Missouri compared
with Kansas follows:


railroad, or 7.26 per cent. OF the total
in Kansas s59, PA, $50 is railroad, or 1879
per cent.
The railroad property in Kansas is as
sessed for S575 900 more in 1902 than in
1901 The Missouri assessment of rail-
road property for 1902 has not been pub
lished.
The foregoing figures are taken from
the state auditors reports of the two
states. They show .hat the Missouri
farmers get it in the neck taxes COM
pared to the Kansas farmers, but that
the Missouri railroads get off much easier
than the Kansas roads.
This showing of cold facts may be ex-
planned by the claim and proof presented
by some leading men of the state-that
the tax board of the state prefer CAM
paign contributions to taxes, raising the
taxes on individuals to secure the grand
total and reducing it on the corporations
to secure contributions which they claim
goes into the campaign fund.
By the records corporations in Kansas
pay taxes and corporations in Missouri
pay very little taxes.
By evidence in court corporations in
Missouri contribute to the campaigns,
thus reducing taxes and securing protec-
tion from legislature.

ENGLAND ALSO PROTESTS.
Germany Takes Ground That United
States Acted Within Rights,
AA Rnny,o
as to Roumania.

Berlin, Sept. 19.-The German for
eign office has received a note from
the British government inviting some
action on the part of the signatories
of the treaty Of Berlin Of 1878 regard
ing Roumania's treatment Of Jews
The British note is shorter than that
of the United States on the same sub
ject, but it pursues the same end. II
is assumed here that Great Britain
knew of the United States step be-
forehand and acted in support thereof
The United States action is regarded
as being quite within her rights, in
seeking the assistance Of the sigma
tories in preventing an influx Of in
digent immigrants, which is recog.
nized as a substantial grievance.
These two notes will result in an in
terchange Of views between the pow
ers as to what action is feasible. In
the meantime it is expected that Rou'
mania will take cognizance OF the
United States protest and defend her
case upon her own initiative before
the signatories. =,
The foregoing represents the views
Of the German government, but the
press, knowing nothing Of the British
note, seems to consider the United
States note action as simply chival
rous and as not likely to result in
practical measures. The Vossische
geitung says. in part, that while think
ing Germany will do nothing it still
believes that the action of the United
States cannot fail to have a strong
moral effect.

STOCKS PRICES RECOVERED.
Relief Of Uneasiness Over Money Sit
uation, Helped the Market,
Wednesday.

New York, Sept 18-Speculative
sentiment was further improved in
Wall street yesterday and prices OF
stocks enjoyed additional recovery.
The relief of the acute uneasiness
over the money situation by the large
engagements Of gold for import
checked the liquidation in the stock
market and made it easier to mark
up prices again. The volume OF the
actual buying demand was light, how
ever. and the number Of shares dealt
in was no larger than Tuesday. the
movement hitherward Of some 81, $780,
600 in gold from various quarters
gives some feeling Of assurance that
relief will be at hand when the com
ing additional requirements Of cur
rency by the interior will make it ur-
gently needed.
The nervous feeling early in the
week was as much due to fear Of this
future contingency as to the then
present exigency for money. The re-
ceipt Of gold which has been started
towards this center will be in occa-
sional parcels during the next three
OF four weeks. Over 100000 Of the
Australian receipts which arrived in
San Francisco Tuesday were made i'm
mediately available to the local mar.
ket by telegrahic transfer through the
sub-treasury yesterday. The one mil
lion dollars which started from Eng,
land yesterday will be available at
the end of the transatlantic voyage.
OF the remainder there will be one
parcel Of 100000, which is not due to
arrive in San Francisco until Oct. 10.
