A BINDER WANTED.-Greatimprvo-
ment has been made in farm machin-
cry, of late years, saving time and
hard labor to both man and beast, in
raising and harvesting the crops; yet
there is room for improvement in the
machinery ofthe farm, The selfraker
isan improvement on the handwriting
machine; and the harvester carrying
the binders is a still greaterimprovc-
ment. But we have not what we
want. Out West here, where labor is
scarce and high, it does't pay to raise
wheat at the present prices. We want
a machine that will cut, and at tho
same time bind the grain. Such an
one, using common Irvine strong G.
nough to hold together, to haul and
stack the grain, is what we want.
Here is an opening for an inventive
genius.

Des Moines and Indianola.

Our Des MONIES friends are having
series of Railroad meetings VERY
much after the manner Of our Cam
eron and Ottumwa Railroad meet
ings some time ago. to aid in build
ing q Railroad from that place to
Indianola, with view of ultimately
extending it enthusiastically to
Leavenworth. Ha
b. F. Allen it seems, has after
great efforts succeeded in getting the
G. R. 1. & p. RR. to agree to iron this
new proposed road after the grading
and bridging is done.
An idea of the movement may be
obtained from the following speech,
made by Allen at meeting Thurs
day night, as we CLEAN from the Reg
ister.
aB. f. Allen was called out, and
said he had no speech 70 make. All
there Is, about it is, we need the
road, and must raise the money to
build it, and he was ready to do his
part in work and money to get it,
Said he had been for q long time
working to get the G. r. 1, & P. RR
to take hold Of it. I have kept at it
till 1 have succeeded in getting their
promise, that you know. Now is the
time to strike to get the Leaven.
worth connection, Ottumwa wants
it. We must get it now, or probably
never. The G. r. Il. & P. RR. Co. is
opposed to building trunk lines, and
had refused to make any offer to any
ono but this. Said he considered It
sure that if tho road was built to In
dianola, it would be made the Leav-
enworth line. Tho Engineer of tho
road has passed over the line, and
says that it is good one, a fine one.
The Leavenworth people want to
come here, -call their road the Leav-
enworth & Des Names Road. That
city and county have 100000 voted
in bonds to help build the road. We
must decide this question now, or
forever after hold our peace"
From the Register of Saturday we
clip the following statement of the
amount raised up to-, and including
Friday night:
TOTAL SUBSCRIPTIONS THUS FAR,
Subscribed last night 2,3OO
Night before last 8.O25
Conditional subscriptions 1926
s27,65o
The conditional subscription is
made upon the terms that 500, 900
is to be raised which is the amount
deemed necessary to carry the road
through Polk County to the Warren
County line, including also the bridge
across Coon river.
1t will be born in mind that this is
substantially a revival of the old
Leavenworth and Des Moines project
which was deliberately abandoned
nearly ayear ago, by vote of the
Directory Of the G. r. I. & P. R r.
Co., of which Mr.: Allen was men,
Der, and that the route was then d.
verted via of Ottumwa and Wash.
ington, on account of it's being some
forty miles the shortest way for that
Railroad to connect with Leaven-
worth and the Eastern Division Of
tho Pacific Railroad, and that the
Chicago & Southwestern Railrt ad
Company was organized for the pur-
pose of carrying out that idea.

The Mapayunk (Maine) Chronicle
announces the death of Mrs. Elizabeth
Ogborn, aged forty, of suffocation from
excessive corpulence. Her weight two
years ago was four hundred and thirty
pounds, and 1t Is estimated that 1t
reached at the time OF her death six
hundred pounds. No chair would bear
to be constructed for her accommoda-
ton, and the house itself, a frame one,
Welded to her great weight. She could
move about very little for the last tW @
years, and when she died, which was
very suddenly, she fell to the floor, and
it required the united strength OF six
men to lift her. r.r.,,..
There has been much talk in Wash
ington about the arrest Of prominent
Cubans In New York, Wednesday and
Saturday. There is no reason what:
ever for supposing that the Secretary OF
State or the Attorney General has any
thing to do with the matter. Such
facts as are known point TO the conclu-
sion that the in for nation on which the
indictments were found was furnished
by the Spanish Consul In New York
and his lawyers, and that his course
was governed by directions from the
Spanish Minister here.
"A private letter from one Of our
leading consular officers in England,
says Mr.. Motley has been very kindly
received by the best class OF citizens In
that country, and that every body is
anxious to know what his Instructions
are, and that Lord Clarendonis quoted
in club circles as saying that he had
no doubt that Motley and himself will
ultimately be able to draw up treaty
satisfactory to right feeling men on
both sides of the water.
