Des Moines, Aug. s.-The Iowa Tele-
phone Company, known locally as the
Bell Company, will make another effort
to secure a franchise from the council
to protect its interests in the city. 1t
is understood an ordinance has been
prepared and will be presented to the
council at an early date. The company
is at present without a franchise, and
is the defendant in a suit by the city
to Dust it. 1t has refused to accept a
franchise giving the council the right
to regulate charges for service. The
attitude of the council toward the new
ordinance is a matter of conjecture.
The company is willing to bond Itself
to expend nearly $125,000 in Des Moines
within the year following the granting
of the franchise. But 1t is not willing
to accept clause fixing the maximum
charges or giving the council the right
to regulate them. 1t is the contention
of the company that with competition
such as the Mutual this is not neces-
sary as competition will regulate
charges. The company agrees If grant
ed the franchise. to put all wires in the
business district in underground con-
Quits. to be located by the board of
pubic WORKS ana the GUY engineer. ~

put the wires in cables, so far as pos
sible, and establish a complete copper

agrees to; put in an automatic. switch-
board by which every subscribper will
be enabled to make his own connections

Washington. d. c.. Aug. DIR. E, w.
Allen, assistant director of experiment
stations in the agricultural department.,
has returned from a prolonged tour of
the west, made for the purpose OF in
specting various stations. He says that
one of the most interesting lines of in
vestigation which Is being pursued in
these stations Is that with regard to
cheese making. The station in Wiscon-
sin is taking the lead in this especial
work, and discoveries have been made
there which revolutionize the European
theory that the ripening of cheese is due
to bacteria. The American experiments
demonstrate beyond doubt that the
principal change in the albuminoids
which takes place in the ripening proc
cess is dependent upon ferment Which
lis contained in the milk itself, and not
to the bacteria. 1t is believed that this
discovery will have an important bear
ing upon cheese manufacture in the flu
ture
In the stations throughout the semi
arid region much attention is being
given to the investigation of excessive
alkali in the soil. In many sections,
notably in California and Utah, there
are large regions of irrigated land
which are practically non productive on
| account of the presence OF alkali. In
lvestigation makes it plain that this is
due to irrigation. and in many instances
to excessive irrigation. The water app
piled to the soil brings the salts to the
surface when it rises. The work of the
experiment stations is to find a remedy
| for the evil. and this they are seeking
to do by demonstrating that in most in
stances crops do not require SO much
water as is applied to them. Farmers
are cooperating in the work.
Agent NJ. b. Waite of the agriculture

sHEEHAN TAKES THE CREDIT
Issues a Manifesto in Which He Ac-
cuses Croker of Treachery.


New York, Aug 1.-THE early return
of Richard Croker from England has
resulted in a manifesto by John C. Shee-
han. In the manifesto issued Mr.. Shee-
han claims the credit for Van Wyck's
election and says the recovery of Tam
mnny's prestige is due to his loyalty
to the organization through the dark
days. Mr.. Cookers return to power is
described as the result of a treacherous
conspiracy which Mr.. Sheehan was too
trustful to suspect until its successful
outcome. 1t says in part:
MIR. Sheehan refused TO see what
others saw-that a conspiracy was be-
ing engineered in Cookers interest, and
and which conspiracy in no event could
have been successful if Van Wyck had
remained true to the agreement made
between himself, Croker and Sheehan
the night before the convention. Tie
lines We're never drawn between Mr..
Sheehan and Croker and no contest ever
took place between them.
notwithstanding the many and re-
lspeated warnings that Mr.. Sheehan had
from the different district leaders OF
Tammany hall. who claimed mis- atten-
ltion to the way Croker had treated
every man who had eyer befriended
him and how he had betrayed every big
man in the organization, including eN-
Mayors Gi!roy and Grant Mr.. Sheehan
refused to believe that Richard Croker
was the migrate and traitor that he has
since proved himself to be. 1t became
evident TO Mr.. Sheehan just before the
election that there was conspiracy
against him in the interest Of Croker
Van Wyck was elected and Mr.. Shee-
han retired from the leadership of Tam
many hall at the end of the year. Croker

year 1898, Mr. sheehan returning to his
district. To fair-nl;nded men Croker

J.B. Rinard, of Mason City, was in
Waterloo yesterday and this morning.
Mr.. Rinard is acting as rlght-of- way
agent for the railroad now under con-
struction from Belle Plaine. Ia, to New
Ulm, MINI. The road passes through
Mr.. Rinards' presence here was for the
purpose OF settling right of way claims
with such of the land owners as settle
ments could be effected with. William
Hicks. OF this city, who owns land in
sections s. 8 and u, through which the
line is surveyed, received over $1,000 in
payment OF his claims for damages.
In a number of instances the COM
pany has bought outright the farms
through which the line passes as the
easiest way to effect settlement.
Among those bought was an 80-acre
tract belonging to Charles Barrett, and
the farms TO Michael Gleason and NJ.
Gallogly.
The agent failed to effect settlement
with Carroll & Kennedy. Thomas Nc
Manus and Ed McDermott, and board
of appraisers will be asked to fix the
amount of damage that these parties
are entitled to claim.
In cases where a small corner is cut
out of farm by the new road, the pol
icy OF the company has been to buy the
tract thus detached instead of paying
the heavy damages that would other
wise be claimed.
The crossing of the new railroad with
the c. G. w. will be but few rods from
the Grundy county line. and owners OF
land in that vicinity are building high
hopes on the prospect of a town being
established at the junction. 1t will be
about equal distance from Hudson to
Reinbeck, and more than four miles
from either Of those places. Mr.. Hicks

THE NEW RULE.
TDuh,,n,1a Times1

The state convention went on record
against nominating speeches and
against changing the vote of a county
during the progress Of a ballot. Both
reforms will help to expedite business
and keep down confusion and will be
welcomed. The candidate ordinarily
needs no introduction to this conven-
tion." to use the words of the spell
binder who then proceeds to introduce
him and often wearies the patience of
his hearers by his unnecessary perform
ance. The time has come to relegate
nominating speeches to populist con-
ventions where proposition to restrict
debate would provoke an endless de-
Tense of the inalienable right of free
speech. The need for the rule prohib-
iting the changing of votes during the
progress of ballot was suggested by a
painful experience at the Dubuque con-
vention year ago. On that occasion
the absence of an orderly method of
taking the sense of the convention
caused serious disappointment to the
riends of Mr. Sammis. one of the can
didates for railroad commissioner. The
confusion at that time would have been

AIoines been in force.

There Is a marked resemblance be-

Mr.. Mckinley has taken no sudden
steps during the many crises through
which his administration has carried
the nation. There were those who
would have hurried him into war with
Spain He held off until he knew that
public opinion was behind him, invig-
Grated upon the subject by the destruc-
ton of the Maine. There We're those
who would have dragged him into pre-
mature conflict with Aguinaldo. He
waited until facts compelled Americans
to see that war with that chief was
necessary, and until Europe had recog-
nized the justice OF that conflict.
There were those who would have had
