Tic Vote i'm Alamakcc
County.

In Alamakee county, ut the recent
election, the contest for Representa-
tive was severe, and the vote result
ed i'm tie. The contestants were
Hon. p. Il. Wright and Mr.. John
Haney. 1t was the first instance of
the kind in the county. The Lansing
Chronicle tells the rest: THE mo-
ment was of deep solemnity, death
like silence reigned throughout the
court room, and both parties linger-
ed between hope and fear for the re.
sult-eyerything was conducted fair
ly and satisfactorily. The tickets
were numbered, and placed in the
lat preparatory to drawing. Mr..
Farley, good substantial democrat,
and Mr.. Goodykoontz, sound re-
publican, were selected to perform
the ceremony; an objection was made
as to the covering of the hat either
by democrat or a republican news
paper, as they might act in a partial
manner and influence the fates in a
wrong direction, consequently the
Lansing Chronicle was selected as
being proper and right for the occas-
ion, "a very sensible idea.)
The drawing proceeded with all
fairness. and resulted in favor of
Wright, democrat. Al! parties SEEM
ed to be satisfied, and good feeling
prevailed. This may be right, but
it seems to us a rather novel way of
choosing our public servants.

George Peabody died at London at
liz o'clock on the night of the 4th
inst. The news will carry heartfelt
sorrow into every American house
hold. Geo. Peabody is one of those
men who have made American char
acter and American institutions
known and respected throughout the
world. In residence of thirty years
abroad, he has never ceased to pro-
claim his nationality, and has done
more to extend and sustain the cred
it of his country than any of her of
fetal repi esentatives at foreign ports
or courts. 1t is due to him that the
confidence or foreign capitalists IN
our national honesty and response
bility did not utterly fail in the dis
astrous crisis Of 1887. His house is
the principal headquarters of Amer
leans in London: and lie has never
been known to refuse helping hand
or counsel more valuable to any
state, corporation, or citizen of his
native land.
Geo. Peabody was born February
Is, 1905, in DanveIs, Massachusetts.
With such little knowledge as he
could gain from q few winters at
tendance at the old district school,
he was entered at the age of eleven
as clerk to Il grocer of the town. After
four years service, he went to Tibet
ford, Vermont, and spent year
with his grandfather. Next we find
him i'm Newburyport, clerking for
his brother, dry goods mer-
chant. The shop was burned out,
and he went with his uncle to George
town, ID. G., and, although still a
minor, assisted to conduct business
which was set up in his own name.
I'm 1914 he entered into partnership
with Mr.. Elisha Riggs, who furnish
ed the money for an extensive dry
goods trade, the management of
which was wholly confined to young
Peabody. In 1915 the house was re-
moved to Baltimore, In 1922
branches were established in New
York and Philadelphia. Tn 1927 he
for the first time crossed the Attain
tic to buy goods. In 1929 he became
senior mariner by the ratiranapt of
Mr.. Riggs. In 1889 he permanently
established himself in London, where
he continued ever since.
Mr.. Peabody's contributions for be-
nevolent purposes are too well known
to require mention. He will he of. |
fectionately remembered so long "a a
single school house stands upon
soil.-ErcHdpgc.

A FAsHIoyABIEWoMAN's PRAYER.
We find the following prayer i'm an

benefit of all whom it may concern,

to any lady in Cedar Falls. Not

would be very becoming to ME,

please let me have u new black lace

ing perfectly happy, for Mrs. p. has
sent me home such lovely bonnet!
A most heavenly little bVou COM
posed of white satin, with coral os-
trich tufts. For this favor am feel
ing very grateful.
Give me, pray Thee, an humble
heart and a new green silk, with
point lace trimmings. Let me not
grow too fond of this vain and de.
ceitful world, like other women, but
make me exceedingly gentle and
aristocratic. When the winter fash
ions come, let them suit my style of
beauty, and let there be plenty of
puffings. pleetings, ruff1es and
flounces, for dearly love them all.
Oh, Lord, let business detain my
husband at Chicago, for he is not
wanted at home at present. Bless
my children, and please send them
a good nurse, for have neither time
nor inclination to look after them
myself. And now, Oh, Lord, take
care of me while | sleep. and pray

advocate the claims of Mr.. Dixon for
the office of State Printer, which Is
TO be filled during the coming session

act of justice done, to elect Mr.. Dix
on. IL is justly claimed that no
man in Iowa has rendered more last

that when the press have spoken,
the ayes will be unanimous for his

ALL HAIL. Iowa The New York
City Republicans held a rousing rati-
fication meeting at Coopers Institute,
before election. This is one of the
resolutions adopted: m
Lastly" All hail Iowa! the Ver-
mont of the glorious and fertile West,
thai unassaiiable Gibralter of Repub-
licanism, with her countless MAORI
ties for freedom, has spoken. Equal
honor to the yeomanry of the Buck
eye State. who have just sloughed off
and discarded every vestige of repu-
dating Democracy. The Keystone
State has also spoken, and her glad
notes O: victory are waited on every
breeze. The Empire State, il now
held in vassilage- solely through
frauds perpetrated upon the ballot
box, must and shall he restored to its
true position among the Republican
States Of the Union.
All that's wrong about the above
s., that New York didn't hail Repub.
lican victories worth n cent.

plains that the stagnation of business
Is greatly increased by the refls, l
of large capitalists to lend their as
sistance towards moving the crops
from the interior to the Atlantic
seaboard. 1t says the crop is so
abundant that they despair of con-
trolling the prices, and they prefer
to have their money In readiness for
a sudden opportunity, whereby they
can make more i'm day than they
could in a year by carrying on "A le-
ultimate business. The consequence
is that prices Of all kinds of cerials,
except barley, which 10 not much
cultivated in our western states, are
constantly falling, and in many
places they are lower than the cost

1t is fact, understood by all good
farmers, that our seed wheat. degen-
crates from year to year in quality
and quantity, and n change of seed
is indispensable if we would excel in
wheat raising. Having duly con.
sidered the matter have procured
and raised some of the white spring
wheat, which has been cultivated in
Northern Iowa until no doubts are
entertained of success.
1t yields from i've to eight bushels
per acre more than the "tean or
fife" and also makes fully i've
pounds more flour per bushel. 1t is
hardy and from six to ten days earlier
than any other variety, giving the
farmer q chance to secure the crop
before the other grains ripen. 1t
does not rust or smut particle. II
brings better price, as you all know
that white wheat and white -four is
always quoted about twenty-five per
cent. higher than any other grade.
Farmers only need to be reminded
of the above facts, which can be au-
thenticated 10y several of cur best
farmers in this county, and told
were they can find the seed. Many
have already engaged, but more can
be SUPPLIED by leaving orders with
Hunt & Rowland, where they can
sec some of the wheat and obtain
further information. Orders will
also be received at my farm, four and
a half miles southwest of Waverly.
