A WEEK OF REFORM
Constitutional Matters in Legis-
 lature on Top.
THE TYLER AMENDMENT.

And It's Defeat Was the Event of the
 Week-Rush of Business Has Been
 Large Members are Hustling to
 Close Up So as to Adjourn Next
 Week.
 Hartford, June S.--Constitutional re-. form and the attendant excitement has made this week stand out in bold relief as one of the two or three most inter- esting weeks of the season. While the public interest in the debate and are-. suit was not as great as in the railroad' fight, judging by numbers, there was still intense interest shown in the out- come of the days proceedings. The feature of the day was the large nuns Der of small town representatives who voted against the reform measure in spite of the advice and even appeals of the republican, party leaders, and the stand taken by the democrats in the house, who almost in a body voted against the measure, intending later to fight for convention The vote against reform was large from the re- publican side when it is considered that the speech by leader King of the house was one of the most logical and forci- ble heard there in years. Yesterday the convention bill came in and next week this will claim the attention of both houses, and that there will be a strong effort made to put the bill through. It is believed that there will be a closer vote on the question than on the res form matter.
 The rush of business this last week has been tremendous and the pressure for a time will keep both houses hurry- ing through their matters this coming week at lightning pace. Both houses are now sending their action directly to the other houses so that both can act on each matter the same day and so greatly expedite business. The great mass of business still to be de- cided will probably delay adjournment this week Wednesday aS arranged, and final adjournment may be postponed for several days and possibly q week. Debate on several matters of great i'm portance will come this week and the committees have not yet completed their reports.
 The new corporation bill is to come in this week and this will take some time for consideration as it is radi- cal departure from the present law of. the state. The eminent domain portion of the bill will likely be postponed un= til the next legislature.

FORTUNES IN OIL.
SOt For the Poor Man, However, But
 There are Other Chances.

mere are tuner chances.
 New York, June SIR. S. Skflton, a Boston man, who has spent some time in the oil field district of Texas, offers little encouragement to people of small means who would seek fortunes in oil in the new fields.
 There is little opportunity" he said, "for a man with small means at the present time to make much in boring for oil. but there are many opportuni- ties for young men there in conner cial pursuits in which the profits are big and the risks small. For instance, the great multitude of people who have migrated to this part of the coun- try must eat. Hence there are chances for stores, restaurants, bakeries and the like. Prices run marvelously high in the prosperous settlements. and the merchant with even a small inventory can make a small fortune"

Mrs. Manahan Seeks L,vore.

Sioux City, Aug. 15.-The August term
of the district court in Woodbury. county
will open with an unusual number of di-
vorce cases on the docket. Every day
several are being filed and the total
number will foot up into the scores
These, with the old cases on file, promise
to make the term notable as a divorce
term.
Just few years ago Frank B. Mana
han, then of LeMars, was one of the
promising lawyers of northwestern
Iowa. He had liberal fund of Irish
wit, was brilliant talker and had a
genial way with him that won him
many friends. His prominence Won for
him readily enough an election to the
lower house of the twenty-sixth general
assembly. and that was the turning
point in his career; it was his unmak-
ing instead Of his making. In Des
Molnes, among lot Of good fellows. he
developed habits of conviviality that
soon unified him for good service to his
constituents, and the appetite for drink
| fastened itself firmly upon him. On his
| return to LeMars he made repeated eff
forts to shake off his ways. but they
chung to him and he lost his prestige. his
practice and mis- friends. He removed to
Sioux City several years ago to get
away from his old surroundings and for
time seemed to master his appetite,
but 1t would not down, and his career
here has been continual struggle, with
now and then victory, but only tenn
porary one. His wife has stuck to him
faithfully thru all his troubles, but now
she has grown weary of his ways and
she seeks separation from him.

Coal Operators Make the Price s. in
Des MONIES District.

Des Moines, Aug. 15.-The price Of
Scoalin Des Moines for the remainder OF
the summer and thru the fall and win
ter, has been fixed at So per ton. The
coal operators association at the Des
Moines district held meeting in the
Flynn Block Wednesday afternoon, and
agreed that there shall be no change in
the price that has ruled in the city for
the past year. Hard coal, tho is going
UP. 1t is up to 1928 ton now, and
will probably climb up another notch
before September 10. The present price
holds good only untii the first of the
month. 1t will probably go as high as
$40 before the winter is over.
The association decided not - in
crease the price Of soft coal to Des
Moines consumers this year" said John
II. Gibson. president of the local oprr-
ators association. Wednesday,. at is
also decided not to lower the price. The
scale of wages to Transfers and mine
workers for the year has been fixed. and
we are bound by that Our expenses
will run along about the same. We
won't have chance to save anything
on labor bills, and We can figure pretty
closely what we will have to get for
agreed upon So as the equitable price.
1t will be the same for everybody. Ey-
cry coal operator in Des NIoines. and in
this district, is a member of the associa-
ton. and bound by its actions.
The price of hard coal will depend
very much on our friend, j. Pierpunt

the present, it is agreed to sell hard coal
at 1925 per ton, with % cents OFF for
cash. The price is advancing, however,
and it will not be surprising If quar-
ter is added to the price at the next
meeting of the operators. look for 1t
to go up pretty steadily, as winter APP
proaches, and before the season is over
it may go as high as $40 a ton. or even

osTEopATHs WANT LAW.
Will Ask Legislature for Changes ii

VIII ASK Legislature tor Changes in
Medical Practice Act.
Des Moines, Aug. 15.-An effort will
be made by the osteopaths to secure
from the legislature the coming winter
modification of the law relating to
their business, so as to limit the priv
ileges guaranteed by it only to gradu-
ates of colleges of osteopathy. Having
fought their way thru the lines of "old
line doctors to secure recognition and
protection from the law, the osteopaths
now desire to have it made more strict,
SO that it may operate as to nom grad
yates of their collegs., just as the old
law operated against all osteopaths or
| iginally.
AT present the law guarantees to all
osteopaths the right to practice their
profession without state interference,
for 1T declares that osteopathy shall not
be regarded as a school of medicine
This allows any person, whether edu-
Gated in osteopathy or not, to practice
1T on people. The osteopaths desire to
have penalty attached to its practice,
except it be by persons holding di-
plomas from colleges of osteopathy in
good standing.
1t was expected all thru the last leg
Iislature that the regular doctors
would attempt to abolish osteopathy
! 1t is said that they are now devoting
much effort to securing legislative nom
nations which will insure large COM
plement of physicians in the legislature
of the coming winter. This may or
may not be with purpose to abolish
ling the osteopaths by repeating their
law. and it probably is to protect the
interests of the regulars from further
invasion by the osteopaths. The os-
lteopaths anticipate a fight. but may be
disappointed, as they We're last year
