FIVE HUNDRED AN H0UR

The famine in India has assumed
alarming proportions and appeals for
succor to the civilized world. The
following card sent out by the Sails
bury Aid Association.tells the awful
story in few words:
"DeGr Friend The half has not
been told. Our courage has failed
as to present all the shocking details.
Every time the clock strikes the hour
it tolls the death knell Of at least 500
victims in India who died for want OF
food. Your contribution today may
save scores, hundreds, yes thousands
Of lives tomorrow. Twenty dollars

day. A thousand dollars viii save

Lynnville Ledger: Our own con-
gresham, Major John F. Lacey, is
being talked of as vice presidential
possibility on the ticket with McKin-
ley, and if it is finally concluded to
give Iowa that position on the ticket
Major Lacey will be the man. He
would make an ideal vice-president
and we hope more than talk may
come from the proposition, pro.
position that has sprung into life
within the past week end which has
already been quite generally com.
mented upon and very fayorably re,
ceiyed.

Iowa State Register: The busi-
ness of the Mothers congress began
Tuesday, and the best tribute that
can be paid to the organization is to
say that the sessions were business
like, and they were. The comic
weeklies like to joke with the women
and their clubs, and picture all
sorts Of impossible scenes with tear
full women throwing books, tearing
hair, ETC., but there would be no
chance for such a joker to exercise
his ability at this meeting.

The petition presented to the
General conference at Chicago to
have the boundaries of the Iowa and
upper Iowa conference changed was
thrown out Of the court. The COM

count of the illegaIity of the notice,
served on the presiding elder of the

-Des Mojnes continues to look at
things through pecuniary profit
glasses. In its write-up of the Wom-
ans Congress, the Register says:
"The merchants who had antici-
pated increased trade from such a
gathering of women, declare it is the
dullest week they have experienced
for months. Not only have the Wis
itors failed to go shopping, but the
ladies of the city likewise have been
too much occupied.n

THE KIcE- PREsIpENnY. :

4 =
Iowa Capital: The republicans o.
the United States are trying to dis
cover the right man, hailing from
the right state, for candidate fol
vice-president.
Pennsylvania could not furnish the
man because of the Quay and anti
Quay sentiment.
Ohio Is the home of the president
and all Ohio men are counted out,
Illinois has no available man In
sight.
Indiana is too near to Ohio to fur.
nish the vice-presidential nominee.
Michigan has SO far presented no
name.
The only available man pre-
sented by the great Empire state
takes himself out of the list By de-
clining in advance.
Neither Nebraska nor Wisconsin
has entered the list with a popular
candidate.
Minnesota has feebly presented
Washburn, but there would appear to
bs no seriousness back of the sugges-
ton. @
There is no governor in the east or
west available excepting Roosevelt
and Shaw, both of whom have de-
clined.
No senator of the United States,
who would add strength to the ticket,
would accept the place.
No cabinet officers so far mentioned
is in the available list. The Samp-
son-schley controversy puts secre-
.tary Long out of the list, and POST
master General Smith is not among
the possibilities.
Therefore candidate cannct be
found among the governors, senators
or cabinet officers.
No hero of the Spanish-AmerIcan
war excepting Gen. Leonard Wood,
can now be considered popular fa-
yorite that is, no hero who would ac-
cept and would be acceptable.
Hence the situation is up to Iasga,
and up to the house ofrepresenta us.
One of the strong men of the iowa
delegation is the representative from
the Sixth district, Hon. j ohm F Lacey.
Major Lacey served gallantly during
the civil war in an Iowa regiment;
was for years successful practicing
lawyer; is a man of tireless energy
and possesses the widest possible in
formation. He would be an available
man for vice-president. No better
man could be found.
1t may be said that Iowa could not
have the speakership and the vice.
presidency at the same time; Maine
had speakership and the president
pro tempore of the senate at one and
the same time ,and what is the differ
ence? Colonel Henderson is the most
available man for speaker, and
the house would not think of select.
ing anyone else, no matter who would
be chosen for vice-president.
Therefore, the Capital presents for
the consideration Of the republican
national convention, for the office OF
vice-president, Hon. John F. Lacey
of Iowa, soldier, statesman, patriot.
Match him if you can.

whether the average length OF life is
increasing or decreasing, how many
men thenation contains who are cap
able Of voting or Of bearing arms,
and whether the relative number of
children is increasing or decreasing.
No question has been ordered by
Congress, or has been asked by the
Census Office which, II properly and
correctly answered, will not lead to
suggestive inferences regarding the
American people and their work.

IOWA CROP REPORT.
Weekly Bulletin Issued by the
Weather Bureau.
Des Moines, May %, 1900.

]
The past week was warmer than
usual, with more than the average
amount of sunshine, and less than
the normal rainfall. The daily excess
OF temperature ranged from two to
six degrees The rainfall was in the
form OF light showers very unequally
distributed; and in the districts where
it was deficient in the preceding
week the effects Of dry weather are
beginning to be noted.
The weather conditions we're very
favorable for finishing planting corn,
and for cleaning out early planted
fields. The work Of cultivation is
pow well begun; the stand is fairly
good, and the condition Of the crop
is generally quite promising; BETTER.
in fact, than the average in past
years for the closing week in May.
The area planted appears to be full
average, and may prove to be in ex-
cess of last years acreage.
The condition Of spring wheat, oats
and barley is generally very good.
The hay crop is quite variable, aver
aging much better in the southern
than in the northern half OF the state.
The winter-killing OF clover has in
iured meadows and pastures to some
extent in all districts. And numer-
GUS reporters note the fact that the
hay crop is short in their localities
as q result Of deficient rainfall. In
the southern belt, where grass il an
important staple, the crop Of hay and
timothy seed promises to be a full
average.

RACK TO THE -E0Ln

William E. Curtis, in his Washing
ton correspondence, says that ex-
Representative James Belford of Col
orado, who, while in congress, was
familiarly known as "The Red
Headed Rooster of the Bockies, y has
announced his return to the Republi.
can party, which he left in 1894 to
join the democrats on the silver is-
sue. Mr.. Belford gives a good many
reasons for his change of heart in his
most characteristic language. In
short, he considers silver dead is
sue and does not believe in placing
a corpse on platform. The social.
istic tendencies of Mr.. Bryan and the
present leaders of the democratic
party are alarming TO every pers on
who has anything at stake, and prop:
erty owners throughout the country
will never trust men of such ideas To
run the government. After six years
of experience in the democratic
party Mr.. Belford has discovered il
cannot be trusted, and he says the
most of the republicans in Colorado
who left the party when he did feel
the same and are coming back to
their old allegiance. He predicts
that the republicans will carry Col
orado at the fall election.

'that little surprise is manifested

are added to the vast store already
in existence. The farmers daughter,
especially in Iowa, is dividing the
honors with the brother, and is Civ
ing practical demonstration that
the country girl is just as wise, as
self reliant and as worthy as the
boy. The Manchester Press is quot
ed in the following as a proof of the
assertions made above:
Last year the high school honors
of this city went to country-bred
girl, Miss Edith Putnam. This year
first and second honors are taken by
two girls whose homes are in the
country-Miss Mary E. Bushnell and
Miss Cora Sabin. This is a little
tough on the town pupils, but it goes
TO show that the cleverness and hard
work-mostly the latter-fiourish out

nell and Sabin are among the bright

been earned, not merely bestowed.
