PETERS MUSICAL MONTHLY The
May number comes to US overlooking
with choice new mssic. There are four
new songs, three piano pieces; and we
notice new feature In the shape Of six
pages of quartet music, which will prove
a valuable addition; also, a dozen or
more pages OF biographical sketches aud
reviews of new music that will be Of
interest to all musicians. Being largely
engaged in the publication of sheet
music, Mr.. Peters has always fresh
stock from which, 70 make his selections,
and seems nothing 10th to draw from
his resources to any required extent to
make the monthly what it should be.
Besides the musical sketches and re-
views Of new music, each number con-
tains thirty full-sized pages of new
music by the best writers in the country.
When music Is furnished so cheap, what
musician eau afford to be without such
a publication Four dollars worth Of
good music cannot be picked up every
day for 80 cents, and we feel justified in
saying that subscription at So will
give as much music land good music,
too, as you can buy for $50. This val
liable Magazine is published by J. l..
Peters, 1913 Broadway. New York.
BY agreement with the publishers Of
this "Prince Of Musical Monthlies," We
are enabled to club 1t with the ADvER-
TlsER Mt the low rate Of three dollars
per year, the regular subscription price
of the Monthly alone. All persons in
terested in music or musical affairs
should avail themselves Of this rare OPP
portuntty.

A HARD NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Su.
p~rvisors are commanded by Judge
Miller, on pain of suffering imprison-
mend, to violate their oaths ofoffice by
voting a tax to pay interest of rail
road bonds. Each supervisor, on TAX
ing his seat, took All oath to support the
Constitution and laws Of Iowa. The
Constitution and laws, rs Interpreted
by all our Courts. invalidate railroad
bonds. And yet the United States
Court, without pretending to decide the
question of constitutionality, orders the
Supervisors to pay these bonds, even in
cases where the State Courts have de-
creed that they must not be paid be-
cause they are unconstitutional. lay
ing aside all other considerations u
strictly conscientious man will find it
hard to obey the "highest court in the
land" under these circumstances. We
have come to a strange pass when the
Federal Court will imprison men unless
they agree to commit perjury. lfusca-

Our Congressman at Home.

Hon. VIM. Smith, member OF Con-
gress from this district, returned to his
home at Marion OH Monday evening Of
last week, after an absence Of nearly
three months at Washington. Col.
Smyth was the last Iowa member OF the
House to leave the National Capitol,
having prolonged his stay there several
weeks after his fellow representatives
had left. His continuance was not
without practical results, as has been
shown in the success which has attend
ed his efforts. Few, II any, Of the new
members have been able to exert so
much influence ct Washington as has
Col. Smyth. A man Of few words, but
of earnest action aud great tenacity of
purpose, our new member has already
given abundant evidence Of ability and
sure to render his con-
gressional service satisfactory to his con-
stituents and honorable TO himself

THE other day, two elderly farmers
dropped, one after the other in the course
of few minutes, into the same one Of
our village stores. There is nothing
strange In this fact, but when it is sup
plemented by the statement that Mr.. A.
and Mr.. B. aforesaid, were just from the
scene Of q lawsuit, to which they were
the parties litigant, it will readily be
perceived that they met as above stated
in no very amiabIe frame Of mind to-
wards the world in general and each
other in particular. A war OF words
soon began, and from at first applying
each to the other the worst abuse in his
vocabulary, both kept getting "sharper
and sharper on it," until visions Of
punched heads, gouged eyes and bloody
noses that were soon to be, began to APP
pear to the bystanders. At length one
of the proprietors Of the establishment,
becoming somewhat tired of that kind
of = thing, came up to the windy belli-
gerents and proposed that they proceed
to fghtT out according to the code, and
at the same time offering to them an OPP
portunity to draw cuts" for choice of
weapons. Much surprised and not
