Senator Gear, Dead.

The death of Senator John
Henry Gear, announced elsewhere
has brought sorrow to his Iowa
constituents, and the Nation, tor
it takes from our national con-
gress, and Iowa one of her influ-
entail and highly esteemed cltl-
zens. Senator Gear, or ("Old
Business') as he is sometimes call
ed, was one of the fathers of Iowa,
having spent long public career
of forty years to his state and
maintained their highest respect,
is indeed a compliment to his
worth and influence. He died
suddenly at his post of duty IN
in Washington, D. C., and his re-
mains was brought to his home
town, Burlington, for intern1ent.
Thus our state looses a true
friend. The Nation a faithful
worker, and the community a
kind hearted neighbor.

DEATH OF DIR. La WI,XER,

Not until last week did we re-
ceive the sad news of the death
of DIR. Frank Lawther, Our high
ly esteemed doctor, who had been
taken up to Hot Springs, South
Dakota, to regain his health, but
who died there the 4th of July,
soon after his arrival there. DR..
Lawther has been a sufferer from
many diseases, prominent among
themwas the asthma, however,
he had complication of diseases.
The doctor was born in Missouri,
about sixty years ago, where he
first worked on farm later, at
tending the common schools; and
then he taught for several years.
In 1877 he married his present
wife, Miss Hattie Jeffers, of Ma
rion county, Iowa. In 1888 the
doctor took medical course IN
Chicago Medical college, where
he graduated, and then came to
Mahaska county, Iowa, where he
practiced until about three years
ago when he moved to our city
where he remained till death.
His funeral services were held IN
Hot Springs, where he was bur. bur
led. He leaves a wife and a
number of children with many
friends to mourn their loss. We
extend our sorrow and condolences
to the bereaved family.

COMING CAMPAIGN.

-Four years ago the republican
party, under the leadership OF
William Mckinley, went before
the people of this country with
their platform adopted at Saint
Louis, and perhaps the gold plank
was the most important plank in
it, as it was assailed by the demo
Gratis from Mr.. Bryan down to the
street corner politician. The re-
publicans promised the people
that if they were successful at
the polls they would restore pros
perity, that fires in the furnaces
should be re-kindle, that the me-
chanic should find employment at
good wages, that the laborer
should find plenty of work at fair
wages and be paid in good money,
and that the farmer should re-
ceive good prices for his products.
Too we'll do we know the condi-
tons of things at that time; fail
urs all over this country, idle
men on every corner, while Coke
and Ke1ley's armies were travling
over the country begging from
door to door. AS soon as the
news was flashed over this count
ry that Mckinley was elected
president business revived, the
people knew that dollar was
worth one hundred cents any
where; business has continued to
increase daily and those who want
work can find it.
Mr.. Bryan, the leader of the
democratic party, is asking the
voters to elect him upon the plat
form adopted at Chicago and re-
affirmed at Kansas City. It's
principal planks are free trade
and free silver, either one will
destroy the business industry of
this country. Can the voters be
led astray by little side issues of.
imperialism to vote for the party
that almost bankrupted this
country, when they come as they
now do with the same old cry Of
free trade, free silver and inn
perialism as an issue against the
prosperity condition of this count
ry for the past four years.

CLIMATE AND CROP BULLETIN
OF THE WEATHER BUREAU.
For the Week Ending April 9 1000.

The weather has been remarkably
favorable all the week for drying the
soil after the SHOWS of the previous
week, with the sun shining almost
continuously till the 9Th. The only
rains reported during the week were
light and local showers in Polk,
Becker and Douglas counties on the
8th. In the first half of the week the
temperature was moderate, with
frosts at night, but on the 6t1 and
7th it was very warm. North of the
vicinity of the Minnesota river the
soil is generally in excellent condi-
ton in the prairie regions; in the
timber regions. on clay lands and in
low places the soil is still rather
damp. In the southern part of the.
state the SHOWS of the 25th and 18th
were much heavier than further north
and in consequence the soil is wet
yet, and in southeastern counties it is
very wet. In the Red River valley
and on favorable lands in central
portions wheat seeding began on the
I'd, becoming general on the 5th and
9Th; in many parts of this region it is
expected that if favorable conditions
continue, most of the wheat will be
seeded by the 18th. In south cen
traJ counties wheat seeding has had
only a beginning, while in southeast
ern counties it is not begun. A few
oats have been sown. The condition
of winter wheat, winterrye aud clover
can hardly be determined yet. An,
increased acreage of grass and forage
crops is anticipated in some south
western counties. n

MONOPOLIZE ATTENTION.
Elandslaagte and Wepener Still in the
Public Eye.

Elandslaagte and wepener Still in the
Public Eye.
LONDON, April .-Elandslaagte and
Wepener still monopolize attention. At
both places series of indecisive actions
are occurring. The Boer report of the
fighting April 10, at Elandslaagte AYERS
that the advance on the British camp
was made with the loss of only three
mules and two horses, while the British
losses, says the same report, must have
been heavy. The bombardment lasted
all day. -...---.--. -:
Nothing has been learned regarding
the rumor of Colonel Baden-Powell's
death, nor is there anything tending, to
show how long the general advance to-
ward Pretoria will be delayed.
In the absence Of exciting develop
ments public interest centers more upon
the personality of the new commanders.
and in the suggestions as to who the
next general will be to be sent home.
The sailors of the Powerful are COM
ing in for enthusiastic greetings, equal
ing that which met them on the first
arrival at Portsmouth Wednesday, when
young and old women kissed officers
