It might have been expect
ed that narrow-minded, preju-
diced and ignorant partjsans
would use a time of national
calamity in a silly as we'll
as venomous endeavor
to make political capital out of
an execrab1e crime. It is not
surprising that the Little
Falls Transcript would do
such a thing, but it is strange
that the Minneapolis Journal
would even for moment
stoop to such a suggestion.

HAD TOO MANY SPARROWS.
Crane Learned to Like Them, But Diet
Disagreed with Her.

ONaX1eSO Win deI.
*Some time ago I had occasion to
observe an interesting change in the
habits and temperament Of a crane
which had been picked up in the
swamps Of Arkansas" said a gentle
man from one Of the towns on the Mis-
sissippi river, **and the change was
startling, too. !
*<The crane was placed in a small
park which was literally filled with
English sparows. These pests did
not like the visitor from the lowlands,
and they made daily assaults on the
poor bird. The sparrows would eys-
tematically swoop down on the crane
in droves, and the attack was fierce
and vicious.
''The crane stood the assaults with
Indifference for awhile, but finally the
fowl from the swamps figured out a
method of retaliation, and it was ef-
tectual. In some way the crane
learned that sparrow was pretty sweet
morsel. From the time she learned
1t she Toasted on sparmws.
"She would slip up cautiously on
these pesky twitterers and throw her
yellow beak out like a gig. Shenever
missed the mark. She always landed
a sparrow, and a singular thing is that
she would swallow them whole, feath--
ers and all. But the crane would al
ways dampen the bird by dippingitin
one Of the water basins Of the park.
The diet evidently did not agree
with the crane, and she became a
trlt1e droopy and showed signs of in
disposition. She finally died, and the
keeper of the park believes that the
cranes death was caused by>a severe
case Of indigestion, brought on by eat-
ing sparrows. IN. 0. Tmes~Demo-

lum Sept. Sd, of pulmonary abscess,
aged 81 years. 81. o. d
The deceased was 8 Lativeof Can
ada, moving to this COUNT with his
pal ents ct an early age. His politi-
cal career commenced in 1859, when he
was sheriff for q short time. He Was
clerk Of court from 1874 to 1856,
sheriff 1915. He was the fret
chief executive of Little Falls, being

justice Of the peace in 1889 and 500.
In 1884 he was captain of the local.

In the period from 1870 to 1880 Mr.:
Houde bought and located >"half-.

FRIDAY, SEPT. 13.

The country was Profound
" shocked and Mortified Fri
day afternoon at the amazing
news that the president had
been assassinated. No event
could possibly have been so
unlocked for, so unexpected,
so beyond probability. For a
third time a chief executive of
the United States has fallen
by the hand of an assassin.
Booth thought he was aveng-
ing the South, and Guiteau
was impelled by the fancied
injuries of a faction of the re-
publican party. But the MUIR
derous fanatic who tried to
ill Mckinley was urged to
his terrible crime by an in
sane hatred of all govern
ments. He attacked more
than the man McKinley-he
dealt a blow at the people of
the United States. How
causeless, how useless, how
vain, was the attempt, even
though it had succeeded. In
dividuals are nothing in a
land where popular sovereign
ty rules. The foundations of
the republic lie too deep to be
shaken by the act. of an as
sassin. The nation exists
and lives, no matter what be-
falls it's servants. The I'M
steady throne of the despot
may collapse. but a govern
nent based on a free citizen
ship cannot fall through the
loss of it's temporary chief.
The citizens themselves can
undermine their government
by departure from that which
made them great and free, but
not by the bloody hand of the
revolutionary anarchists will
the processes of the Ameri-
can government be stopped.
The glad news that the
president would recover
was hailed with Joy all over
the land, and every citizen
will trust that the judgment
of the physicians is true, and
that Providence, which in
many a dark hour guided the
nation to safety, may pre-
serve the nations chief exec
utive.

Springfield, H., Jan. lex Cover
nor John R. Tanner has Withdrawn
from the senatorial race. The an
nouncement was made shortly after
noon by Senator Chapman. chairman
of Tanners steering committee. Pri-
vate Secretary ]. Mack Tanner, in
confirming the announcement said:
I'VE have carefully considered the
situation and have reached the con-
clusion that it is impossible to muster
votes enough to elect Tanner and have
decided to quit" A moment later
the announcement was made that the
other senatorial candidates, Cannon,
Hit and Prince had withdrawn and
Cullom would have no opposition in
the caucus tonight. The announce
ment caused the greatest excitement.
A rush was made by the crowd of leg
islators and politicians to the head
quarters of Cullom, where the senator
was fairly borne down with the enthu-
siastic cheering of supporters.

FARMERS.
Millers Want Iowa Agriculturalists
to Grow Wheat.
SAY IT IS A PROFITABLE CROP.
Say Time Is Not Far Distant When
Iowa Will Rank Among the First as
a Wheat Producing state-Acreage
Increased Largely.

Des Moines, Jan. 17.-At the con.
vention of the Iowa Millers' associa-
ton Secretary Van Meter read his re-
port on the condition of the milling
business in Iowa. During the last sew
en- years of it's existence the associa-
ton has held semi-annual meetings in
various parts of the state and the
greatest good that has been done is
in the effort to get the farmers of To-
wa to grow more wheat By persist
ent work the millmen have procured
figures concerning the profitableness
of wheat as an Iowa product and have
been able to induce Iowa farmers to
pay extra attention to the cereal which
furnishes the staff of life. The mill
men numbering about 400 in the state,
are jubilant over the report of the
bushels of wheat raised in Iowa dur
ing the last year. The total is over
%, 500 900, a vast increase over the
statistics for former years. These fig
ures are all the more satisfactory for
the reason that the mill owners feel
that to them is due great deal of the
credit for the revival of the wheat
crops in Iowa. The association has
been Industrious in sending to Nebras-
ka and the Dakotas to get the best
Iseed wheat and giving the fine grains
out among the Iowa farmers. The re-
suit has been greatly increased
acreage of wheat in this state and the
enthusiastic mill owners say that the
time is not far distant when Iowa will
rank among the first in the nation as
wheat producing state. AS it is now
a great deal of wheat is being raised
in the northwestern and central parts
of the state. Most of this is spring
wheat. There has been a great in
crease in acreage of wheat in Cass
county and in Montgomery county and
other parts of the state, where wheat
growing has not been profitable for
many years. The association will hold
semi-annual meeting in Cedar Rap.

MANY CANDIDATES.
Iowans Who Want Slice of Federal
Patronage.

Washington, Jan. Immediately
after the adjournment of congress on
the fourth of March the Iowa delega-
ton will hold caucus for the purpose
of selecting the candidates for the
federal offices in the state. Up to the
present time comparatively many can
didates have filed applications for the
six principal Offices.
Ed. Knott, of Waverly, the present
marshal for the northern judicial dis
trict, is anxious to be reappointed. He
is opposed by R. T. st. John, of Rice
vile, who is anxious to relieve him of
his duties and incidentally the emolu-
mentS.
Horace G. Mcmillan, of Cedar Rap.
ids, is willing to continue in office
as attorney for the northern district
for four years longer, but ]. U. Sam
mis-, of LeMars, stands ready to step
into his shoes if the delegation decides
that the time for a change has arriv-
led.
The only candidate for collector of
internal revenue for the northern
counties of the state who has entered
the race thus far is J. w. Patterson,
who fills the Office very acceptably to
| the treasury department at the pres
ent time.
Perhaps the warmest contest will be
over the district attorneyship for the
southern district. Lewis Miles, of Co
rydon, desires to succeed himself and
he is handsomely backed by Represen.
ltative Hepburn. His present deputy
is George B. Stewart, of Fort Madison
and Mr.. Stewart seems to believe in
the policy of rotation in Office, provid
ed that the rotation plan rotates him
into the place which Mr.. Miles now oc
cupies. H. o. Weaver, of Wapello, is
also candidate. Mr.. Weaver die
lgreat service for the republican ticket
as chairman of the republican state
central committee last fall and his
friends think that his services entitle
him to some reward. 1t is asserted
that if he fails to secure the endorse
ment of the delegation for the place
he seeks he may be induced to take
the internal revenue collectorship fol
the southern district, now held by S
I'D. Campbell, whose chances for reap
pointment are not very bright.
The only aspirant for the marshal
ship of the southern district who ha
appeared thus far is George M. Chris
tian, of Grinnell. He may have walk
over, but there is time enough yet 70
host of other candidates to ente
1.-THE race.
