Major Lacey and Judge Mitchell
opened the campaign in Fremont on
Saturday. Judge Mitchell made the
opening speech and gave his reasons
for leaving the Bryan party, as he
called it. Major Lacey followed with
one of his mastery speeches show
ing up the false issues raised by
Bryan and swallowed by the lesser
lights. These two speeches will have
a good effect and give the democrats
something to think about, as they
were plain logical and unanswerable.

A NEW ORDER.
Iowa Central Issues a Circular
to Employees.

There has been issued from the of
flee of the accounting department Of
the Iowa Central a new order fol-
employees concerning orders on the
company, and the disposition of their
wages, garnishments and the like.
The text of the circular is as follows
Accounting Department.
Sept. 10, 1900.
To Employees and others interested:
1t is desired that the employees of
this company shall SO conduct their
business affairs as to merit the conf
dence and command the respect of
the public.
The garnishment of employees has
given much trouble to our account
ing and legal departments. Services
OF this character involve the COM
pany in expense and risk, and re-
quire such a proportion of the time
OF officers and agents as to interfere
with the proper discharge of their
legitimate duties.
1t has become necessary in order
to afford protection to the company's
interest to establish the rule that
any employee ~subjecting the company
to the service of a garnishment
against his pay will be liable to dis
missal and will be held responsible
for all expenses incurred by the COM
pany in connection Herewith.
Orders given upon this company by
employees other than upon the q
lar blanks, provided by the company
for board, authorized insurance,
technical school tuition or watches,
for designated employees, will not in
any case be received or accepted.
Except as provided, employees must
not give orders upon this company
nor make any assignment of any
claim for wages due or hereafter to
become due from this company, and
no agent or officer of this company
will receive any claim for collection
against any employe nor make any
deduction on account of the same.
These regulations carefully OBJ
served will accrue to the benefit of
employees and all others concerned,
and they must be strictly adhered to
by every one.
Approved:
L. F. DAY, T. l.. WATSON,
Vice Pres. Gen. Auditor
While the laws laid down in the
new order are somewhat severe, or
may seem SO, the company on the
other hand will protect it's men
against the malicious persecution
that has been carried on at timss,
and of recent frequent occurrence,
by attorneys and collection agents,
forcing and compelling unjust claims
and fees to the embarrassment of the
employees.
The Iowa Central is surrounding
itself with a very superior class of
men for whom there are good wages
and permanent places in the service
Of the company. The class of men
who have been known as dangerous
and liable to run from bills, are be-
ing welded out and will not be re-
tanned by the company.
The new order is on the basis of a
mutual benefit. The company re-
promptness and protection of
its men and in return gives protec-
ton and backing to its employees.
The order generally meets with the
hearty approval of all employees.

Large Number of Flockmasters Driv'

A prominent sheep man at Opal,
Wyo., says that a large number of Wyo-
ming fioCkmasters have driven their
sheep to Soda Springs, Idaho, and have
shipped their wool from that point. He
believes that upward Of 1,500. 900 pounds
Of Wyoming wool will thus be credited
to the clip of Idaho, whereas the sheep
were raised in this state. In addition
to this the locks will be in Idaho when
the assessors Of the county make their
rounds and the state will be deprived
of the taxes on the thousands of head
of sheep. The reason for treking to
Soda Springs is that the wool from that
place has an enviable reputation in the
