OUR MEAT

American meat exports are sharply
feeling the German meat inspection
law. In the first three months after it
went into full force IN April last the
empires total importations of meat
have been reduced by nearly 1000 tons.
This implies a reduction of $4,000 tons
per annum in Germany's purchases of
meat from abroad. The lions share of
this loss of trade will be borne by our
meat exporters. Under the same law
foreign-made sausages and canned
meats have been wholly excluded since
1900, prior to which year more than
1000, 900 worth of those food products
were imported, mostly from this coun-
try.

Virginia Enterprise.

A number of papers are. wasting their
sympathy when they refer to the Com
stock as a dead town, because the street
lights were dispensed with. There is
no city the size Of Virginia where
there is a more prosperous and content
ed lot of people than live in the shadow
of old Mount Davidson. They live bet
ter, dress better and are more intelligent
than a like number of people to be
found anywhere in the country.

Elko Independent.

Elko Independent
The Courier says the assessment roll
of Douglas county foots up sll 900 less
this rear than last and attributes the
loss to the change in the State line by
which Douglass County loses property
valued at $40, 900. This is a very poor
showing for Douglas County and pre-
sents quite a contrast to the ford des-
cription of Douglas County ranches
published by the Courier a few weeks
Ago.. 1t then stated that Douglas Coun-
ty had a large area of alfalfa land that
could not be bought for 500 an acre. If
the Independent is not impertinent, il
would ask the Courier how many acres
of that land are assessed at $500 an
acre? If that is considered impairment,
the Independent would really like to
know how much that choice alfalfa
land is assessed per acre? 1t is merely
seeking for some basis upon which to
reconcile the assessment roll of Douglas
County with the Courier's statements.
