E MONIES, Nov. 13.-(Special.)-Gen-
eral Ed Wright, member Of the Board of
Public Works of this city, is at the point
Of death and there is no hope that he will
live more than a few days. General Wright

legislature from Cedar county and was

tendent of construction, and was prominently
identied with the building Of Iowa's capitol.

he was made custodian. He continued in this
position till 1890. When he was dropped from

DES MONIES, Nov. 13.-(Special)-Willis
L.. Hall, the historian Of the Iowa legisla-
ture, has revised his figures on the opinions
of members on the questions of resubmission
of prohibition and manufacture of liquors
inside the state. He has now reports from
ninety-one Of the 100 members of the house
and finds thirty-one for and thirty-fve
against resubmission. 1t appears, therefore,
that the nine members of the house who
have not been reported may turn the scale
and carry the resolution, assuming that all
the others are correctly reported. At any
rate, the situation is such as to make it
almost certain that the republican caucuses
will have to be awaited to know whether
resubmission can go through. On
manufacturing the situation is more clear.
In the house thirty-three are reported for,
twenty-four against and twenty-nire uncer-
tain. Mr.. Hall has reason to believe this is
favorable to the measure, In the senate
twenty-one are for, fifteen against and
twelve uncertain. From the previous records
Of the members and other Mr..
Hall is confident will go down
and manufacturing will carry. Both will
be by small margins, however.

Pure FcOG.

Butterine is a much abused product. As a matter of fact it is pure, sweet, wholesome, and infinitely preferable to ordinary country butter. A special correspondent of this paper recently visited the factory owned and operated by the Armour Packing Co.,, of Kansas City, manufacturers of the widely ad- vertised Silver Churn Butterine. A five story building is perfectly fitted for the scientific preparation of this food product. Everything is spotlessly clean all appliances are the latest and most improved, and every precaution is taken to secure the production ofe an absolutely pure and wholesome food. All processes are under the direction of a foreign chemist who has made the skilIful combination of pure sweet fass the study of his life.
 Prof. Charles Chandler, of New York City, says: "The product is palatable and wholesome and I regard it as a most valuable article of food"
 Prof. J. S. w. Arnold, Medical De- partment, University of New York, says: IA blessing for the poor, and in every way perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article of food"

 Cuba Needs Arms, Not Men,

Key West. Fla, Sept. 16-It was re- ported in this city yesterday that an ex- petition consisting of several hundred well equipped men, left here Saturda y for the Keys north of this place. where they are to meet a vessel that will take them to Cuba.
 For the past few days many Cubans have arrived in this port, whose actions caused them to be suspected as filibus- terers. The Spanish gunboat Condo Venedito of Alliancia notoriety arrived here this morning, it is presumed by or ders of the Spanish consul, who is kept busy running down rumors of 1libuSter- ing expeditions, of which the atmosphere is full. The arrival of the Condo Nene- ditto caused great deal excitement among the Cuban population, hundreds of whom rushed down to the beach to see her. The Condo Venedito left this afternoon and will cruise up the coast and try to intercept any expeditions that attempt to cross the gulf.

A Rumor Denied.

New York, Sept. 16.-Mr. T. Estrada Palma, delegate from the Cuban revolu- tionists to New York, today made the following statement: Tt is reported in the papers that Senor Enrique Moreno, who it is stated, represents himself as an agent of the New York Cuban junta, is at St. Louis, Mo-, enlistng men for ser vice in Cuba. Such report has no foun- dation in fact. Senor Morena is not an agent for the New York Cuban junta, nor do l know who he is The Cuban junta shall not knowingly violate the laws of the United States. Moreover the Cuban revolution is in no need of men. What it needs are arms and am- intuition for thousands of men who so far are supplied with no other weapon than the maohete. Arms and ammuni- tions the junta can buy within the law and will do so without concealment.

 In its comments on the letters the Ga zette gives prominence to the argument that Lord Dunraven well knew the con ditions before starting in the race.

Even if the orders We're against Lord Dunravens winning he certainly ought to have made an effort If he had been beaten every body would have had some sympathy with him But now the effect is different Nobody would then have felt, as he must do upon a review of the facts, that the course he took was hardly consistent with the hon ored traditions and the highest code of sportsmanship. It may be true that yacht racing in America is not as clean a it might be- but Englishmen have not the monopoly of sportsmanship and Lord DunraVen has given our American cous- ins just cause to ieer at him.
