POLITICAL WORLD.

A FAIR audience at the opera house in
Cedar Rapids, Ia, was addressed by Sam
uel Dickie, chairman Of the national prohi-
bition committee. He claimed that the old
parties were without issue; that they would
never take up the issue Of prohibition, and
that third party was necessary. Rev.
MIR. Burkhalter, pastor of the First Pres
byterian church, created sensation by
coming out boldly for the third party.

vote it is alleged from Grace precinct has
also been doclored, changing the vote for

result of the official count cannot be fore
told. Intense excitement prevails all over
the county. 1t is asserted that 100 armed
men from Madrid precinct will go to Grant
to intimidate the canvassing board. Should
they make any move whatever to bulldoZe

1t is estimated that ~ ,OO0 American
women were in Europe last summer
and autumn. Twenty thousand Amer
lean men went along with the majority
to pay their expenses, and those who
were not with this majority left hus-
bands and fathers at home to keep
them supplied with funds. They went
everywhere--the women except to
Spain and Russia. A few even pene-
trated these countries, But they didn't
affect them much. There was 50 little
chance to shop there. They tarried In
London, Paris, Venice, Berlin, and
they shopped continuously When they
went to any other place where there
was chance to shop they set them
selves at work buying things. Sight
seeing was OF secondary importance; 1t
was even overlooked in the pursuit of
this fascinating pastime. One ingen-
ious Chicago woman fingered In the
European capitals until after the holi-
days. She landed upon the soil Of her
own country in novel costume for
winter weather. Every article except
her boots was Of costliest lace. IL it
hadn't been 20 cold I'd had those Of
lace, toe, 3 she declared to her friends.
