There is no just reason for
these conditions-the country

times are good and the demand
for meat products greater than
ever, but the consumer is paying
today as much for meat as one
year ago. The sole excuse for this
state Of affairs is the desire OF the
manufacturers to increase their
already immense profits.
The prices for cattle are lower
than they have been at any other
time since the civil war. There
are several causes for this. To
begin with, early in the season
there was a prospect of a scarcity
in the corn crop. Men who make a
business of feeding cattle for the
market consequently did not feel
like paying the prices prevailing
last year. The growers would not
come down, and as a result they
had the stock left on their hands.
Large amounts of money were
tied up in cattle. Soon the
commission men and others who
had been loaning this money
began to urge the marketing of
the product and the payment of
the loans. This kept big stream
flowing steadily to the market,
and largely feeders for which
there was a small demand. The
packers did not bid against each
other, and the prices dropped on
all grades. Still the stock was
forced to market.
The foreign demand fell off.
the Boer war and other unusual
conditions being over. Times
generally have not been so
prosperous within the last few
months and domestic demand
has fallen off. All these condi-
tions have pushed down the
price. The receipts of cattle at
Chicago so far this year are
probably 100000 to 100000 head
over what they were for the
same period last year, while the
prices are fully 80 per cent less.
Since the corn crop showed up
so well. there has been an
increased demand for feeders,
but at the lower prices. The
prices of dressed meat has not
been reduced in proportion to the
fall in the cost of the animals on
the hoof. The consumer is paying
the cost of everything"

THE SECURE HOMESTEADS
Rules Which Govern Entries On
the New Canal.

The following letter has been
received by Attorney Charles L.
Knox, and it would be well for
those contemplating taking up
lands on the route of the new
canal to read the same carefully:
Your letter of recent date to
the Honorable. the Secretary of
the Interior. has been referred to
me for reply. With it you
transmit a letter from C. L.
Knox. of Reno, Nevada, asking
for a list of the land withdrawn
from entry under the Reclama-
tion Law of June II, 1902, and
also asking whether these lands
can be located upon by intending
settlers.
Under the terms of the law, a
copy of which is enclosed here
with, the Secretary of the
Interior is authorized to with
draw lands, pending survey and
examination. These lands can be
entered under the Homestead
Act only, subject to certain
restrictions as to payment of cost
of water to be used in reclama-
tion, size of entry, etc. 1t has
been ruled under the wording of
the law that homestead entry
men can make a filing upon 160
acres, but that later this amount
can be cut down to 40 or more
acres, according to the discretion
of the secretary.
In the case of Nevada large
acres of land have been with
drawn, surveys and examina-
tions instituted, the general
feasibility of the projects ascer-
tanned, and certain details work
ed out. It has not. however, been
considered wise to delay con-
struction until every detail has
been thoroughly ascertained and
hence what may be termed a
preliminary or partial contract
has been let for the feeder canal
from the Truckee River to the
Lower Carson reservoir, work
upon which is now progressing.
The surveys and examinations
have not yet progressed to a
point where it is possible to
ascertain the actual lands to be
irrigated or the size of the
homesteads. When this is known
the fact will be made public and
entry will be invited. Pending
the determination of these facts,
homestead entrymen can make
entries subject to the provisions
of the laws and to the charges
which the secretary may make at
a later date. That is to say, a man
may enter upon 160 acres, but
when the plans are finally made
this may be reduced to 40 acres.
Before title can be secured he
must, of course. pay for the
water and comply with other
requirements not yet stated.
It is a matter of regret that it
is impossible not to make all of
the plans complete at the outset,
but we are confronted with two
alternatives-one of delaying
work indefinitely. the other of
beginning it in part and deter
mining details later on. 1t is
impossible to prevent people
making homestead entries at
their own risk. but if they wish to
do so we can only warn them
they are taking certain risks.
Whether these homestead entry
men can ultimately obtain title or

TO FIGHT MEAT TRUST
Plan to Aid Stockmen by Estab-
fishing Independent Pack
ina COvmnanv.

ing Company.
Nevada stockmen are becom-
ing interested in a plan to form
an Independent packing company
to fight the packers trust and to
enhance the value of livestock.
This project has been agitated
since before the National Live
stock Association held its annual
convention in Salt Lake. It has
taken definite form only within
the last few weeks, when the
Independent Packing Company
was incorporated under the laws
Of Arizona. The company is now
seeking to raise money through
stockmen to go ahead with its
plans for the building of big stock
yards and packing houses.
Last week letters were sent
out to numbers of stockmen in
the inter-mountain region asking
cooperation in the movement,
inviting subscriptions to the
$5,0O0.GW capital stock and
requesting stockmen to meet at
Fort Worth, Tex, December l,
to hear further details of the
subject.
The prospectus which has
reached Nevada stockmen de-
clares that the price of livestock
is being depressed and of dressed
meat raised by the packers
trust. The prospectus says in
part:
Everyone knows that the
leading packing firms of the
country. to all intents and
purposes. have entered into a
combination by which they abso-
lutely control and fix the prices
of the live product to the grower.
and also the price of the finished
product to the consumer. Repre-
sentatives of the four great
packing houses in Chicago every
weekday afternoon meet and fix
these prices for the following
day, regardless of all laws
relating to the supply or demand,
and these prices prevail at all the
markets. By this method of
business all competition is des-
troyed, and the farmers, stock
men and consumers are at the
mercy of one of the most
far-reaching trusts ever organ
lied in this country.
The truth of this assertion is
obvious when you consider that
fifteen months ago No. l beef. on
the hoof, sold in Chicago from
$3.50 to $8.65 per hundred.
Today the same quality of beef
brings from $685. to $5.40 per
hundred, a decline of fully So per
hundred. or $50 per head for a
1000 pound animal. The dressed
product, it will be seen. has
sustained but an insignificant
reduction, entirely out of all
proportion to the decline in the
price of live animals.
Hogs, on Oct. 8, 1902, were
selling from $6.70 to $7.45 per
hundred. One year later they
were worth but SIS and $5.65. a
decline in the value to the
farmers of about $3.50 on every
animal. while there is no percep-
tible reduction in the price of
pork products to the consumer.
The decline in the price of
sheep is proportionately as great

JEWS Are in TERROR

Second Horror Threatened For
Jan. In the New Year.

Jan. In the New Year.
LONDON, Dec. 2S.-Trapped in Kish.
ineff, 10000 Jews wait in terror for the
coming of the Russian Christmas day
on Jan. Z, when the brutal AM in
famed Russian population of that town
plans to begin the new slaughter that
is destined to leave the place without
living Jewish inhabitant
The horror of the situation Is almost
beyond comprehension. No effort is
made to keep secret the preparations
for the wiping out Of half the popula.
ton of the city.
Daily pamphlets calling upon the
Russians to arise against the Jews on
Christmas circulate from hand to hand,
and the distribution is aided by the pc.
lice and soldiery of the town. The
Jews know the fate that is to be theirs,
but cannot evade It,
The following petition has been sent
to President Roosevelt:
"Word has come out of Russia that
the Christmas festival is to be signal
lied at Kishineff by another such mas.
sacre of the Jews as excited the horror
of the world during Easter of 1907.
"Your excellency is the head of the
most enlightened nation in the civilized
world, and in behalf OF 100000 Of our
brethren who have found refuge in
your country we address this petition
to prevent what is worse than any war
the torturing and Staying of men and
women through race hatred and reli-
gious prejudice. We feel confident that
your voice in this cause Of humanity
will not 60 unheeded.
1--WE have reliable information that
the same unfounded accusatio as pre-
coded the hideous Kishineff massacre
are again being published there; that
the same violent and incendlary attacks
are being circulated representing Jews
Staying Christian children as a sacrl-
fee for religious ceremony. lis un-
necessary TO state TO an intelligent mind
that human sacrifice Is as foreign TO the
religious observance of the Jews as it
is foreign to any other civilized church
or creed, but the Easter massacres are
evidence that such monstrous accusa-
tiOns are received and accepted by the
ignorant, among whom the Jews of
Kishineff are compelled to live.
THE Russian officials have not pre-
vented this melting to riot, and the
public press recounts that the Jews of
Kishineff have been notified that in the
event of the attacks they must not de-
fend themselves on pain of having the
cars soldiers set upon them.
"In such an emergency we implore
your eXcellency to direct the attention
of the Russian government to the
threatened massacre, that countless hui
man lives may be saved and desolation
averted. The friendly relations now
existing between Russia and the Unit
ed States and the humane cause in
which your action is solicited assure
us that your words will have great
weight"
