TRADE REPORTS.

New York-Bradstreet's report for
the past week says:
Important changes in trade and spec
ulation are notably lacking this week
but counter currents of demand in var
ious sections and industries lend a
rather more than usually irregular ap-
pearance to the general situation.
Among the notable features calling for
notice are the practical assurance of
an immense corn crop by the recent
copious rains in the further west, the
continued cheerful reports from the
sections which have gathered and are
now gathering a large winter wheat
crop, advices of continued improvement
in tone in the northwest, with reports
of renewals of earlier Cancelled orders
for fall goods fairly satisfactory gains
in gross railway earnings, less weak
ness in prices of the country's leading
cereal products, based apparently on
renewed buying for export and rather
more inquiry for raw wool by manu-
facturers.
Unfavorable elements in trade prob
ably find their chief and greatest ex-
position in the iron and steel business.
That industry is, if possible, more de-
pressed than at any time for three
years past, and expectations that price
declines will be checked by the arrival
of finished matter at a cost basis have
been disappointed, because this week
steel bars have been sold in some in
stances at one cent per pound, which is
unquestionably below the basis of the
cost of raw materials and manufacture.
That large tonnage of this material
and southern pig iron has been worked
off seems certain, but it is still buy
er's market, with everything that this
implies
Export business would undoubtedly
expand if ship room were available.
Among other metals tin is locally lower
on freer arrivals, after touching the
highest price in 20 years.
Rather more inquiry for wool at east
ern markets is sign of manufacturers
getting ready for the lightweight sea-
son.
Wheat (including -FOUR shipments

COUSINS TRIBUTE TO GEAR.

1t is hardly possible for human utter
ance to add anything to the credit of a
noble life, especially among those who
are familiar with its character and
deeds The man whose memory the
state of Iowa shall henceforth eagerly
and earnestly esteem, was better known
to all of us than any words could tell
or history relate. For more years than
most of us have lived he was an active
factor in the affairs Of the state and ma
ton. He was a comrade with the pio-
neers. He greeted earliest corners with
good cheer and lived to gay farewell TO
most Of them. Infinite Goodness pro-
longed his life beyond the promised
three score years and ten and our
.wasteful world, which always needs the
best of men, prolonged his term of pre-
ferment in the very face of that mex
sorabie law of mans mortality No
greater compliment or commentator
could be paid to any one.
With great, unusual common sense;
with kind and generous heart, with
highest purpose and with eminent sue
cess, he served grateful people long
and we'll. There is no heart In Iowa to-
day that is not touched to sadness by
his sudden and lamentable departure.
John Henry Gear Impressed all men

was essentially American. The rich, the

Whom twas safe to differ. He spoke no
evil of an absentee. He tried to make
life easier for all. He was just and lib
.eral and hopeful. He belonged to the
affirmative element of human life, the
builders, the constructors, the federal
lists. He was a well-rounded, practical,
genuine man and in his nature there
was charity and tolerance as deep and
grand and liberal as the sea.
And by his side in all these years Of
toll and triumph, has been the gentle,
stimulating and surviving helpmate of

The CANDIDATES.


In speaking Of Capt. H. w. Redman
of Newton, the Grundy Republican
Gays:
He is a candidate for secretary of
state and has bright prospects of win
ming that prize. He championed the
peoples cause in the anti-railroad leg
tslation of the twenty-frs't general as
ssmbly, and in the following session he
was elected speaker of the house. He
served the people Well at that time and
if given the nomination he will make
the people splendid secretary of
state"
The Sioux City Tribune observes that
Senator Hobart's candidacy for score
tary of state received a beckset when

there would be no more trouble. She

cause she has followed the Golden Rule

"A girl who has a good place and

place that she is a servant In the sec

her mistress no more than is necessary,
and should be careful not to pry into
family secrets. If I was young girl
just taking a new position and my mis-
tress asked me about my desires
should tell her frankly:
1T is equally important that a do
nestle servant should insist on having
her own rights She should have Ger
Tain time for herself each week. She
should be allowed to go out several

The OLD AMI.

Governor Roosevelt, in opening the
campaign in st. Paul this week. gave
number of important keynotes. What
he considered as especially noticeabi
in discussing the democratic platform
constructed at Kansas City was the
evident insincerity of some points it
aims to emphasize particularly those
in regard to Imperialism and mlitar-
ism. He is conscious, as is every other
thoughtful citizen that this country
I is no more In danger of inilitarism and
imperialism now than it was the day
1t was instituted. In that early day
there were narrow minded alarmists,
just as there are today. He says:
There are doubtless many worthy
and amiable gentlemen of humanitar-
