A LAWYER AND HIS LIFE.

Robert NJ. Haines is dead. This brief
announcement, long expected, never

of Grinneli, and carried with 1t note
of sadness and disappointment. He
died in the harness. IN the fullness

1t has been the custom OF the Times

Haines was lawyer, a lawyer in

that many men have secured a ma

BUSINESS FEATURES.

According to Dun's Review holiday
trade has exceeded even the most SAN
guine expectations, and retail dealings
in all staple lines Of merchandise are
well maintained, with the better grades
Of goods in brisk demand. Wholesome
conditions prevail In most sections OF
the country, altho in parts of the
southwest the season has fallen behind
the average. Even in these cases re-
ports are encouraging for the future
Industrial plants are well employed,
orders running far into the future, and
labor controversies are rare. The only
adverse feature Of the situation is the
fact that supplies Of fuel are utterly
inadequate, both for household and
manufacturing uses, snow increasing
the delay of deliveries.

Features Of Compulsory Arbitration
NEW York SUM-

Our upstate contemporary. the Ro-
chester Union and Advertiser, thinks
that it has found the industrial philos-
opher's stone in Compulsory arbitra-
ton for employers holding franchises
granted by the state or by municipal
tiles, in which the public is interested"
such as street railroads.
What of the employees who would
have to be included in the arbitration,
were arbitration made compulsory on
their employers? Would Jail, the bay
onet or the lash be used to compel them
to accept the arbitrator's decision and
work under it?
In time of war the state forces men
to fight; but the extension of this des-
potism over industry would be a very
different matter.

TEACHING GEOGRAPHY.
~, CO. Nra.,1 !


Within the past year or SO the man.
agement of the Council Bluffs schools
have adopted one innovation that de-
serves particular commendation-a new
method in teaching geography. 1t is
designed to give pupils in the grades a
more comprehensive understanding OF
their own and other countries, their
structure, their people, their political
divisions and their products.
Geography instruction by means OF
books is likely to miss it's mark. The
eyes and ears are the best teachers and
a personal visit to a section OF country
will teach a man or child more about
it than mere book instruction ever can
1t would be fine thing if geography
classes could actually see the countries
they study, but they can't and the new
geography method used in the Council
Bluffs schools undertakes to do the next
best thing-bring as much of the re-
gions studied into the class room as
possible. With this purpose in view,
samples of the products of the various
countries are used, pictures illustrating
the character of the country and its
people, and in addition every other
thing that will appeal to the eye of the
pupil and thereby fix on his memory
more clearly the things he reads about
in his books.
In connection with the work party
of Council Bluffs teachers on a south
ern vacation trip will take as many
views of the country thru which they
travel as possible, showing the historic
spots of interest and illustrating the
great southern industries, the growing
and Shipping of rice and cotton. These
Views will be used as generally as the
funds available for the purpose will
permit and much good is expected from
their use.
For such innovations as these COM
mendation is deserved. They are OF
value and not mere fads. In the past
years Council Bluffs has had more OF
less experience with new ideas in
school work and it may feel somewhat
doubtful about them, but this latest
seems in every way worthy of their APP
prevail.

STAMPING OUT HOG DISEASE.

1t is sometimes necessary to call
attention to the enforcement of laws in
regard to the disposal of diseased ami
mails ia way that will recall the se-
we're penalties that may follow VIOLA
tion. Hog cholera is one of the diseases
now prevailing in some sections of the
state. The Iowa statutes make provis-
ion for cooperation with the general
government for stamping out the dis
ease. and for compensating the owners
{ Of animals destroyed for this purpose.
Farmers who have hogs that die OF the
disease are required 10 burn their car
cases Immediately. They are not al
lowed TO sell or give away their remains
nor to move them along the highway
under a penalty for violation of from SIS
to 500 or a Jail sentence of thirty days.
Attention is called to this subject by
the statement that the veterinary de-
partment of the Minnesota board OF
health has given the people of that
state to understand that 1t will enforce
the laws requiring all cases of hog
cholera to be reported. all dead animals
buried. and forbfdding farmers to allow
animals infected with contagious dis
eases to run at large.
A farmer in the southern part of Min
nesota was prosecuted last week on the
three charges and fined. The fine fol-
failure to report the presence of hog
cholera is from SIS to 500, for failing
to bury hogs which die of cholera $40 te
500, and for allowing infected animals
to run at large $40 to si0e.

FATE OF OLD HORSES.

1t may be wondered what becomes of
old, worn out horses in Waterloo, ami
mails SO ancient that their teeth give
out and they are not able longer to
eat enough to keep the breath of life
in their emaeiated frames. Sandow,
the general utility man, is the agency
by which most of these worn out ami
mails are put out of their misery and
under the sod. He puts them to death
by humane methods to get them out of
their suffering, then skins them and
buries the carcasses in a private bury
ing ground he has in the lower part of
the town on the east side, where be-
tween fifty and sixty careasses now

WORKING Women's wronqs.

Under the title "A Lead From Aus
tralia," an English paper, Justice, pub
fishes an interesting article which says
in part:
Australia has for some years been
making experiments in the direction of
granting the suffrage in separate colo
MES to women; and, finding these ex-
periments attended with good results,
both as regards the position of women
and of the population at large, they
have now admitted women to equal
political rights with men. Let us hope
this recent step on the part of Aus
tralia may give power TO the agitation
on the subject of woman suffrage,
which the labor candidate for Clitheroe
has promised to carry on in parliament
if he is returned for that constituency.
THAT the present unsatisfactory in
dustrial position of women depends
largely on the fact of their being pol
sitcally unrepresented Is slowly filtering
down into the minds of working men
and women themselves; and the fur
ther fact that this unsatisfactory in
dustrial position is a constant danger
to the industrial position of men, can
only be correctly appreciated when the
first fact is rightly understood.
women at present form the slave
class in industrialism, the class ever
ready to step in and take any work at a
! smaller wage; and mems only safety
I lies in raising the industrial value of
women That this industrial value de-
ponds largely on the possession of the
| franchise is proved by the fact that
mems wages during the late reign rose
| in nearly all trades between so and 100
! per cent, and tho it will no doubt be
argued, and with truth, that trade I'M
ionism has done much to bring about
the rise in wages, yet we must remem-
| Der also that mems trade unions have
| their parliamentary committees, which
| help them largely in the agitation, and
under existing political conditions,
| would be impossible in women's trade
unions; and that, in cases where women
are admitted to mems unions, the Off
Gals of such unions are invariably

THE PURE FOOD BILL.

The people will applaud the action
OF the national house in passing the
pure food bill, the design of which
is to prevent the sale of adulterated and
unwholesome foods and drugs. There
is q WELL grounded belief that many ar
ticles of this kind are on the market.
In fact many people are so skeptleai
on this subject that they assert the
great bulk food products are either
adulterated or weakened by manufac-
turers. Some of these are merely I'M
wholesome while others are injurious
to the health. There are noteworthy
and praiseworthy exceptions to this
class of goods, which deserve com
n,endation In passing. There are honest
manufacturers who have built up repu-
tations for the excellence of their food
products, as well as for other articles
that enter the home. Their goods
scarcely ever vary in quality. They
have q national fame and their brand
As at once a guarantee of quality. They
have their rewards, and now the dis
honest ones are likely to receive their
deserts also In penalties and punish
ments.
This law, il 1t goes upon the statute
books and is properly enforced, will
tend to make dealers more cautious in
their purchase and sales and it ought
{ to put an end to the sale of many things
that the public now buys with re-
luctance because OF the fear of adul-
teration.
Iowa has a severe law on her statute
books against the adulteration and sale
of such foods. drugs and medicines, the
penalty of which for the first offense
is a fine of from sic to $50; and fos
the third offense it is not less than
$500 nor more than $1,000 and impri-
sonment in the penitentiary not less
than one nor more than five years
So it will be seen that our law makers
have not been tagging.
The new bill before congress is de-
i signed to cover interstate traffic, in
order that the dishonest manufacturer
can not palm off his wares in othei
states and the local dealer can no:
plead ignorance of the character of the
goods sold because it comes from an
other state.
