himself one way or the other, but he
was accused OF being for An
other one was for ---, and the other
candidate was both for Gear and Cum-
minis. according to time. place and
crowd OF listeners. AS this was mem
toned mot for publication, y the writer
Is obliged to use blank lines. And up
this way mot Clarion), where a Cum
minis delegate has been named, many
republicans declare as far as the town
Is concerned q. e., the county seat),
1T is strongly for Gear. In another
county seat where Cummins man has
been named and instructed, gentle
man said, with the peculiar dry flavor
of Mumm's, he is also strong per-
sonal friend of Dolliver." One thing is
very sure, large number Of the Cum
Minis delegates could easily take Dolli-
yer as second choice.
One would think our country towns
would be absolutely free from tramps
these days, and yet it is nothing to
hear the marshal drove eight of them
out of town this morning." The writer
was present the other day when the
railroad agent tried to hire three
tramps to work on the dump one-half
mile below town. All were strong and
healthy and he offered SITS day.
They didn't want that kind OF work"
Then he told them OF farmer q mile
from town who wanted several men
and would pay $3.50 per day and board.
But just the same when the freight
train came along they all piled into an
empty stock car. And at this same de-
pot was a Russian Jew peddler. who,
finding trade dull, had been stacking"
ten days for a farmer at $3.50 per day.
The Iowa citizen who today feeds a
healthy, strong tramp is doing a harm
full act, both to the tramps and the
community.
Coming events cast their shadows be-
fore. We, q. e., the lords of creation;
also the editorial wei, can next season
wear shirt waists. a clothing man says
this year he has sold shirt waists for
boys big enough for small men. and
that the effete east is cautiously putting
on the market mems shirt waists some,
of them with pulled fancy sleeves It's
coming-the present fancy flowing

waist. Only think of the satisfaction we
shall have next summer of walking
into the high toned hotels and entering
the dining room with cool shirt waist,
suspenders out of sight and no coat or
vest to make us afraid of swelterng in
room with the thermometer up In the
90s. Then again. think of the saving in
family clothing expenses The head of
the family can buy them in dozen lots
Pater, mater and grown children can
wear them Unfortunately. All that is
necessary is to have them At around the
neck, the other parts can be tucked in
or loosened as previous conditions of
servitude demand. The writer Is also
glad to mention that bicycle trousers
(not pants, as frequently advertised)
are now considered the correct thing
for travellers. so that next season all
travelling men can wear shirt waists,
bicycle trousers, silk stockings and low
cut brown shoes. The best part of this
change in fashion is that all men, no
matter whether short or tall, stout or
lean, bull dog calves or spindle shanks
have chance in dressing this way to
conceal the deficiencies nature has i'm
posed on them, particulars to be OBJ
tanned at any first class clothing store.
