WIRELESS TELEdRAPHY.

The recent wonderful accomplish
ments in wireless telegraphy bring
to mind forcibly the value of cleo
tricity. 1t is probable that much
work will be saved by means of this
subtle fluid. There is no limit to it's
possibilities. Applied to material
objects, it causes them to move as
with life, while without it the hu-
man body cannot be strong and
healthy The best means of filing
the body with vitality, is by the use
Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Lack of life in the stomach causes
indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation,
biliousness and malaria. Any of
these symptoms means the Bitters
is needed at once, Just now, when
the seasons are so variable, it is
particularly valuable, and a regular
dose will keep the bowels active and
healthy.

Laws of 1899, chapter 351, section ..
At the election OF May l, 1900, the new
charter was submitted to the voters and
at the same time such voters were re-
CURED to elect officers of the CITY, The
result Of such election was the adoption
and election of officers of the city, under
which election the present officers assert
their right of Office.
Perhaps 1T is not important 1T this
time 10 consider the question as 20
whether the new charter took effect
thlrty days after the election or thirty
days after the canvassing IF the vote,
so L will concede that the new charter
TOOK effect on the first day Of June, 1900.
1t IS, therefore evident, that up to June
were IN full force and effect, and any act
by virtue thereof must be of force and
erect. The new charter. under the law,
had 10 effect until the time in the statute
supercedc the old charter. See sections
2 supra, the words underscored.
me contention of these who question
the tenure of the present officers is prac-
tically this, that from the cleo ton to
the taking effect Of the new charter, the
city had no charter rights, consequently
the ofhcerS elected in 1881, retained Of
flee until 1902. Such contention is absurd,
and requires no cOnsidera ton.
If. as we contend the old charter was
in effect in the May election. therefore
virtue of its pTov-s ons, is legal and
valid. There could not be any post facto
operation of the new charter; to nuliify
an act legal at its inception.
That the commissioners of the new
charter contemplated that new officers
would be elected at the May, 1900 elsc-
ton, is evident from section chapter 1
of the new charter, providing for the
election Of officers at the biennial cleo
ton in May, 1902 and also from section
Is chapter % of said charter;

Upon being requested, Mr.. Delavan did
so, and was promptly informed that the

STATES IN GAME DISPUTE.
Iowa and Minnesota Wardens En-
gagged in Il Quarrel.


DIES MONIES, Dec 12-The fish and
game interests of Iowa and Minnesota
sometimes conflict. Several instances
of the last season have brought out this
fact Last spring, when the water began
to rise it was discovered that fish were
pouring out of Spirit Lake over across
the line to Loon lake, which
is in the State Of Minnesota.
AS soon as the water be-
gan to flow down from Loon lake into
Spirit lake the fish, as is their habit,
Immediately began to, run up toward
the source of the flowing water. When
this fact came to the knowledge of
George E. Delavan, state fish and game
warden he went to the spot and put
in a big screen, so that Spirit lake
should not be depopulated of it's nurner-
Gus fnny tribes for the benefit of the
little lake in Minnesota.
People in Minnesota objected to this
the fish to come to their waters. They
tried in every way by threats and other
means to get Mr.. Delavan to take out
his screen, but he refused to do so,
knowing there was no way they could
compel him to turn over the Iowa f1sh
to the people of Minnesota who wanted
them. The Minnesota fish and game
commission took a hand in the case and
tried to get Mr.. DelaYan to let the fish
have their own way. But the screen
remained in place until It's purpose was
accomplished and the fish no longer de-
sired to leave Spirit lake.
Another somewhat similar case oc-
