Prosperity has oyertaken the lumber
trade. Within twelve months COM
mon lumber has advanced from six
dollars on a thousand toeleyen dollars.
III other grades have gone up in the
same ratio, some of them more. and
the price is going higher. This won
derful lumber prosperity, the polite
ian tells the fools who never think for
themselves, is the result of supply and
demand. If that is true why does the
rule fail in the matter of farm pro-
ducts? The output OF wheat in the
United States was 100000 900 bushels
less in 1899 than in 1898, while the in
crease in population increased the
home consumption at least $4,000, 900
bushels, and the foreign demand was
much greater than in 1885, Ii supply
and demand regulated tn price, wheat
would be worth in the farmers gran
airy not less than dollar a buShel.
The trouble Is, the farmer is a party
slave and votes as ordered by the ma
chine manipulated by the money trust
and its subordinates. When. the toll
ers become independent voters there
will be equality of privilege in citizen
ship and before the law. Trusts will
be wiped out.-National Republican.

necessary examination.
As soon as Hobson left the office DR..
Appleby took the child in his arms and
handled it SO roughly that the parents
protested, but to no avail. Suddenly
the doctor put his thumbs under the
baby's chin and, with his fingers on top
OF its head, crushed the face in 50 that
the blood gashssaa m 4Rh up, he seized
the child by one foot and began swing
ing it around his head, resisting all eff
forts of the terror-striclen parents to
stop him, and it was not until help ar
rived that the child was taken from
him.
The baby was dead when DR.. Rich, a
physician who had been called in, pre-
pared stimulant to administer to it.
DR.. Appleby knocked the spoon on the
floor. declaring that God had taken the
child. The insane commission was inn
mediately convened, and soon DIR. APP

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

picion of Causing Death of
a Young Girl.

Hugh Rowe was arrested at Fairfield,
charged with the murder of Mabel SEQ
field, which took place October 81 or
%, 1899, and has remained complete
mystery ever since. The girls body was
found in the river Sunday afternoon,
October 90. All evidence Indicated she
had not drowned, but it was impossible
to say how she was killed. She was 20
years old, pretty and of excellent char
acter, Guy Howell and Charles Thomas
are wanted and warrants are out for
them and a fourth man, name now I'M
known. Rowe had known the girl at
her former home at Macksburg; Thorn

Miss Scofeld was living in Des Moines.
After the police gave up the investiga-
ton in despair committee of ministers
and prominent men raised money, en-
ployed a detective and have kept him
at work ever since. He claims to have
discovered important evidence. The
suspects were all supposed to have

are exploded.

Gov. Shaw Says the Heroism of Iowa
Soldiers in Civil War should
BE Remembered.

In his message to the Iowa legislature
Gov. Shaw said:
ON the 9Th and 7th of April. 1862, tre-
| mendouS battle was fought near the Ten
nessee river, at a log church that was
calied the Shiloh meeting house. At that
| tlme Iowa had Is infantry regiments at the
front. Eleven of these participated in this
pattle; and it is generally conceded that
the iowa troops, by their heroic stand at
what the rebels called 1.-THE Hornets
| Nest, saved the federal army from de-
struction and overthrow. The severity of
| this battle may be judged of by the fact
that the union army lost, in killed, wound
ed ana missing, 1901 men, of which 2,4O9
were from this state, SO per cent. of the
combined Iowa forces participating. Gen.
beauregard marched 10000 men into that
battle on the 9th, but returned to the en-
counter on the morning of the 18th with his
remnant of 10000. So says Grant in his
Memoirs. The government has purchased
TINS battle field for national military
PARK; ana officially appointed representa-
yves OF the several Iowa organization that
look part in the engagement have located
tne position OF their respective regiments
Inc government has also established a
national military park and cemetery on
the grounds where the important battle of
Chattanooga was fought, in which ten Iowa
regiments took an active part, and where
nearly 400 members of these orga nizations
were either killed or wounded. The posi-
tlons OF these several regiments have also
been located and temporarily marked by a
commission appointed for the purpose.
other states have erected, or have in
process OF construction, appropriate monu-
ments both at Shiloh and Chattanooga,
commemorative of the bravery and hero
ISM OF their soldiery. Iowa should speedily
90 the same. In these heroic times. the
sentiment of the state WILL 1 think, indorse
as liberal appropriations as have been
made by other states.
In this connection it may not be out of
pace to urge upon your attention the fact
mat the government has also made pro-
vision for a national park at vicksburg.
