The members Of the school board and

council met late this afternoon in the
parlors Of the Marshalltown State Bank
to consider jointly the matter of ex-
tending water service and sewer to the
new Arson school building, in the south
part Of the city, the contract for which
is to be let by the school board Monday
night.
The matter was taken up by the coun-
ell at its meeting last Monday night,
and it was agreed to bring it before the
school board and that the sense of the
council should be that the school board
stand the expense of putting in the GER
vice, on account Of the city's finances
being in such demand at present. This
the school board can not see, for the
members claim that the people have to
pay for 1t no matter which body takes
upon itself the responsibility of settling
for it. 1t all comes out of the taxes. one
way or the other, and the city has a
fund of that kind to draw from, while
the school board has not. 1t is estimat-
ed that the cost of the work will be be-
tween $500 and $1,000. and at this after
moons meeting it is thought that the
matter will be settled. The school board
is anxious that the service be put in at
once, SO that the workmen can have
water on the ground at the time they
begin work, which will be as soon as
school closes, the first of June.

Stripes Over confederate Capt..
toi In Iowa's Home.
George ". Dart, Former Member Of
Famous Croker Iowa Brigade
Is the Man.
Deed Is Referred to 10 History and
Was Accorded as One Of tho
Brilliant Acts.

Attic IL IL not generally known, Mar
shalltown has as one Of her citizens. a
member Of the Soldiers Home. man
who figures in the history of the nation
as q hero, whose name appears in the
histories Of the country in regards to Its
civil war as the one who first floated the
stars and stripes over the capitol OF the
Confederate States OF America. at Col-
umbia. s. C.
This man is none other than George
w. Dart. OF Attica. N. Y, who has.
come to Iowa's home for soldiers in orr
der that he might be with the comrades
with whom he fought in those exciting
years in the early COS. MI. Dart, who
ts now go years OF age, enlisted as an.
Iowa soldier at Clinton in Company G.,
of the Thirteenth Iowa, one Of the regi-l
ments OF the famous Croker brigade
Dart began his service as soldier Oct
~, 1851. and was discharged at vicks-i
burg, Miss, Dec. 1863. in order that he
might re-enlist on account Of the expir-
alton of his service. After his re-enlist-l
s1nent az a corporal he was discharged
July "a. 1865, at the, close Of the war, at
Louisville, Ky.
The manner In which Dart won for
himself name and fame is an interesting
one. Heswas the color guard Of the reg
iment on sherman's famous march to
the sea, in which his regiment and the
Croker brigade participated. When
the troops arrived near the confederate
capital q bit of strategy was attempted
which worked successfully and was, at
the time. the cause Of an unlimited
amount OF comment in the newspapers
OF the country. Dart, accompanied by
the lieutenant colonel OF the regiment
and few others, entered the outskirts
OF Columbia with colors flying Dart
having them waving at the head8of the
email column of soldiers. The streets
We're lined with confederate soldiers,
principally the southern troops of cav
airy. The rebels had been expecting an
assault upon the capital for days and
when the small squad of unionists APP
peared the rebels jumped at conclusions
and figured that the entire union army
was back of the advance squad con-
Eequently fled in great haste and disor-
der. The little band of soldiers kept on
until the capitol building was reached,
when Dart passed the guards and,
mounting the steps. climbed flight after
flight of stairs and swung the stars and
stripes proudly to the breeze from the
stan on the top OF the building.
Darts deed, altho referred to in his
tory as one of the brave acts that trans
pired on the march to the sea, is ex-
tolled greatly in the records and histor-
les OF the army OF the Tennessee, where

felt by the city. In view Of the expert.
sence OF the Northern Life in moving
from Marshalltown 1t is strange that
any one should have proposed to en-
tangle the Southwestern in the same
troubles, but since 1t was so proposed
the action Of the stockholders was
doubly gratifying. They evinced a
manifest determination to keep their
company in Iowa and in Marshalltown,
whereit had grown and fourished even
if 1t should be at the cost of the present
management.

people naturally have a great deal to
do with railroad men, Of which fact
they have reason to rejoice, but Mar
5shelltcWn people have learned that
there is "a difference in railroad men as
well as in others. Just now they are
entertaining the vice president of their
road. genial. intellectual, pleasant.
democratic gentleman. A man who does
business on the square, meets people
openly and pleasantly, talks frankly.
1t Is deemed pleasure to have his ac-s
quaintance and no man need fear be-
ing denied an audience, yet this man,
is a resident OF q far-off city, with q.
business that does not require his living.
among or even knowing Marshalltown
citizens. How striking is the contrast
between this railroad official and an
other whom he In part has hired to
manage his road. Cold, and austere
naughty and held aloof from the COM
mon citizen. this man can hardly claim
a friend in Marshalltown. Business men
trying to meet him on friendly terms
are repulsed, almost insulted. Ac-
quaintances are ignored and denied the
common courtesies OF a pleasant greet
ing when passing on the street. En-
ployes and fellow officials, who are men
iof worth and men of spirit, are abused
by the commands Of a tyrant, insulted
by childish exhibitions of authority,
until rumors Of designations are float
ing around almost every department.
Such is the difference between two men.
The one with authority and a man OF
wealth, q man of social standing to
Justify him in self-pride, meeting peo-
pie in true democratic way and
making friends for his road wherever
he goes. The other simply an employee
of a corporation Haunting his delegated
power in the face of the public and fell
low officials until every friend that
might have been his has become dis
gusted IL not sworn enemy.
