come 10 pass or ever will under re-
pnblican rule. In fact the very oppo-
site has happened. There has never
been an era Of greater prosperity in
this country than at present. Bust

tories that were silent as the grave
during the last era of good old
times" labor everywhere In demand :;
money easy at low interest rate; hap

broad land. 1t ought to be easy for
the voters OF Grant county to choose
between a ondition and a theory
which has been demonstrated false in
every respect. We believe it will.

A GREAT SUCCESS.
The State Fair Closes With a
New Record.

Des Moines, Sept. 1.-The Iowa
State Fair closed Friday night with a
surplus of S25 900 and more in the
treasury of the state department Of
agriculture. While the exact figures
are not known, it is believed that this
fair was somewhat more expensive
than that of last year. The receipts
were about s 1000 more. There was q
surplus on hand at the beginning of
the fair of about $4,000. Clearing
about what the fair of last year did,
there is now a total surplus of about
S25, 900.
Superintendent G. s. Prime was
highly pleased at the results of the
exposition, so far as his department
was concerned. He will be a candi-
date, it is understood, for director on
the state board of agriculture.

THE CENTRAL IS OUT.
No Longer a Member OF the Western
Passenger Association.

The Iowa Central railroad is no
longer a member of the Western
Passenger Association with which it
has been affiliated for the past sever
al years. This fact was made known
in Chicago Friday when its announce
ment appeared in the different
newspapers of that city.
The withdrawal of the Central from
the association does not mean by any
manner whatever that the road Is to
indulge in promiscuous rate cutting,
or that it is to be responsible for q
decentralization in rates. On the
contrary, it will not, and will main
tain rates as comparedt to other roads,
but when any competing road does
make a rate lower than the one in
effect the Central will meet it, which
it could not do while a consistent
member, as it has been, of the West
ern Passenger Association.

have had a great deal of experience with
medicines. Last summer my little
daughter had the dysentery in its worst
form. We thought she would die. I
tried everything l could think of, but
nothing seemed to do her any good. l

mended and sent and got a bottle at
once. 1t proved to be one of the very
best medicines we ever had III the house.
1t saved my little daughters life. ! am
