'.Ask the Revenue Officer"

I'm my last showed you clearly that "prOof"
does not denote "qRality"-that whskey may
be 100 proof and yet so inferior that no.
- BODY ought to buy it. l also told you
just how pure whiskey of dependable quality is
made.
1t is a wel-known fact that the honorable dis
tiller gets less whiskey from bushel of grain than
the unreliable dister does, because there is ponnt
beyond which he can't 60 without sacrificing quality
No distier who values his reputation attempts to
abstract all the alcohol from even the best of grain
You can therefore see that when reliable deal
er offers whiskey of excellent quality, he must get
more for it than the cheap concerns, who handle
grated whiskey, ask for their products.
Here's another thing about this proof question:
The law does not require the proof tc>be stated
on the label if the bottle contains whiskey that is
government standard proof If it is "IOU proof the
label must so state.
In addition to being government standard proof
every drop of whiskey sell is made from the very
choicest grain that grows honestly distilled
thoroughly aged In charred barrels-and guaranteed
absolutely pure.
And more than that-it is put up in full measure
boffIes-32 ounces to the quart, I2S ounces to the
gallon.

of "proof better send your orders to a house

attempts to sidestep an obligation, and that con-
ducts its business in honorable, straightforward

Nebraska's Opportunity.

California business men have
merged many large interests into what
is called the United Properties com
pany, incorporated with a capital of
$500, 100000 for the purpose Of de-
veloping the state 1t appears to be
one Of the most systematic plans of
construction that has yet been laid in
any state of the unioR. II contem-
plates the Introduction of thousands
of people from the east and central
parts of the country for settlement
chiefly in the Sacramento and San
Joaquin valleys, where land at fair
prices will be offered and other adj
vantages for homes and good liveli-
hoods placed before them. Back of
the enterprise is the best brain and
business acumen. as we'll as the most
powerful financial resources in the
state, and, incidentally, it may be
stated that James j. Hill, who is seek
ing to share the Hartman control of
this territory, is said to be a prime
mover.
All of which goes to show that the
movement means business; that 1t is
destined to bring large and speedy re-
suits. 1t will, undoubtedly, stimu-
late the passage of home-ssekers west
ward, making this year one of the
largest immigration cycles in history,
Nor is the work to be ended with the
year.
This looks like a golden opportun-
ity for Nebraska and the other inter-
mediate states. without seeking to
benefit specially at the expense of Cal
ifornia, this state should seize the OPP
portunity to attract some of these set
tiers. The history of all American
migration sustains the logic of our
theory that coast-bound hegira helps
intervening territory, Nebraska, there
| fore, could lay its plans for capturing
some of the immigrants and at the
same time promote instead of retard
the California enterprise. II this
state wants to take its proper place
among its sister states in this work of
development it will have to join with
them in some concerted, systematic
plan of action. Haphazard methods
will produce only haphazard results.
I Certainly Nebraska need not hesitate
for. the want of natural resources and
attractions to exploit, for no state ex-
/ cells il in these.

Rail Rates and Operation.

Lawyer Brandels estimates that IL
the railroads were granted the in
crease in rates they demand they
would enlarge their earnings about 3
per cent He contends that far more
than this amount might easily be
saved in more scientific operation.
Though he is arguing from the stand
point of the shippers attorney. Mr..
Brandeis undoubtedly is hitting near
the head Of the nail II is quite be-
lievable that if the railroads should
unite as faithfully for the purpose OF
scientific operation as they have for
scientific rate increases they could
not effect a per cent saving When
the great skill and resources of rail
road management combine on any one
object they usually get results and we
have had some disclosures of late that
tend to show a decided lack in sys-
tematic economy of railroad operation.
The Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific are two roads whose records
the last year seem to refute the theory
that railroad operation is down to the
minimum and that higher rates are
essential to fair returns on investment.
These roads have managed to declare
10 and 10 per cent dividends, without
raising rates, as they did wages and
yet operating for less than the aver
age for the last ten years. II they, in
their sparsely settled territory. can
do this on l cent per ton mile rate.
why cannot those roads in the eastern
I part of the country that are so persist
emily striving to advance their rates.
| It may be that these Hartman roads
have not reduced their operation to
more scientific bases than the average
roads of the east. But to contend that
| they have or have not would not nee
essarily offer comfort to the east
erners' proposition. It would only
show that they are failing to do some
thing that they could do to improve
conditions without levying heavier
| tolls upon their patrons.

LOR1MER OF ILLINOIS.

Washington Herald Senator Lorimor Is
getting such a cold reception that It must
be hard for him to understand how the
method of his election can be a burning
issue.
Louisville Courier-Journal: The senate
committee on elections and privileges can
decide what It will with regard to the
Lorimer case, but II cannot rob the public
OF its sense Of smell

highly gratifying to Mr. Lorimer to per
ceive that his presence In the senate cham

Washington that those senators who are
closest to Lorimer Of Illinois and who will
probably vote to uphold the report declar-
ing his election valid are endeavoring to
prevail upon him to resign his seat Ger

able TO win him to their way of thinking

Defying Dame Fashion.

The scare in New York that the sup
ply Of the false hair market may be
reduced to the discarded Chinese
queues has evoked a declaration Of
threatened revolt against Dame Fash
ion. Women assert they will go with
out their rats and puts and rolls en-
tireiy before they will take them from
the slick pates of the orientals. But
will they? II 1t comes to this ex-
tremity will they not wear the China
mans hair and say nothing about it,
except, possibly, to explain that they
we're not supposed to know whose or
what hair it was?
Defy Dame Fashion? oh, no.
Woman may like her own way. She
may insist upon her rights and pre-
negatives, but whoever heard of a
woman who claimed It was her right
to falter in obedience to one of this
imperious mistresses' mandates? That
is the one authority never questioned
or defied. IL is all very well to make
this fine display Of courage against
what the fair ones may regard inscru-
table and intolerable unwritten law
but nothing is likely to come of 1t ex-
cept meek and mild obedience.
So expect no discsrding of the false
adornment of woman's head, foolish
man, until Dame Fashion DEGREES it.
And. according to present commercial
forecasts. that will be no time soon.
The returns are too good, II you
have gone to the pains of getting up
any great amount Of enthusiasm over
this outburst OF womanly courage just
open the valve and let the steam es-
cape. The rats and the puffs and the
rolls will be worn, whether they come
from China, Halifax or the Fiji

CAMPAIGN FOR THE WEST.
Importance of the Coming Convention
at Omnha.
napyar

Denver Republican
The meeting in Omaha called for the
18th of this month to organize a campaign
to promote settlement in the Transmissouri
region is evidence that men in many diff
ferent parts of the far west appreciate the
importance of encouraging the develop
ment of the country. Properly attended.
the proposed meeting should result in much
good.
II is not alone the far west which is
interested in the development of this sec
ton. IL Is interest which the whole
country shares. The Atlantic coast is far
from the Pacific slope, but it is concerned
in the development OF the vast region lying
west of the Missouri river The more the
Rocky mountain and Pacific slope states
are developed, the better will this region
be able to take care of itself. The less will
1t lean upon the east or look to It for aid
The country as a whole is not troubled
about the development of the Atlantic
coast region, Were thai section assalled
by a foreign foe the whole nation would
rise to Its defense But in regard to its
material interests, its ability to take care
of itself is fully recognized. Ii would be
so respecting the far west IL the latter
were occupied by large population capa-
BILE of doing all the things which the de-
velopment of the country may demand.
Were II to be attacked by foreign foe, 1t
would make brave resistance for time,
but in its present condition il might have
10 call on the rest of the country for aid.
This appeal for aid would not be
necessary If the far west had large popu-
lation and its natural resources were ade-
quately developed.
Thus the whole country is interested in
maintaining a strong front toward the Pa
cific and, locally, the far west Is inter
ested because of the direct benefit which
would inure to It from the settlement and
consequent development Of the region lying
/ between the Missouri river and the Pacific
ocean.
