BILL POSTERS HAVE RIGHTS
GIenwood Member Defeats City in Law
Suit About POSTING Bills.

Glenwood, Nov. 10.--In recent de-
cision in the district court at this place
the bill posters of the state have won a
signal victory. The case in question
was the City of Malvern VS.. Graves, the
local bill poster. Graves, it seems, had
been posting about the city paper from
outside people, the kinds usually seen
on the bill boards of all cities. The
merchants of the town objected and the
city council passed an ordinance placing
the fee for such privilege at a price that
1t at once became prohibitlye. Mr..
Graves consulted with State President
Nichols, of Council Bluffs,w who instruct
ed him to go ahead with his work and
should he be arrested for violation of
the city's ordinance that the state or
ganization would defend him. He did
as instructed, was arrested and fined
by the mayor. An appeal was taken
to the district court with the above
ruling, Judge Wheeler stated that the
two points claimed by Graves had been
sustained. They are, first, that the or
dinance was unreasonable as to the ex-
cessive license, and, second, that the
ordinace Disseminated as between res
idents and non-residents, and as be-
tween merchants and citizens in other
walks In life. The court made an order
discharging the prisoner and taxing the
costs to the city of Malvern.
This leaves Malvern, practically
without any ordinance on the posting of
hills

SOFT WATER RESERVOIR.
Good Progress on Fine Public I'm
provement at Grinneil.

Good Progress on a Fine Public I'M
provement at Grinnell.
Special to Times-Repubiican.
Grinnell, Nov. 11.--Work on the soft
water reservoir is progressing rapidly,
but it is not expected that 1t will be
entirely completed before next spring.
When the pond is full of water it will
be one-half mile long and about one
quarter of a mile wide, and in its
deepest place it will be about twenty
five feet deep. 1t will be very irregular
in shape on account of the shape of the
bottom. The contractors are Messrs.
Coalson & Daley and the Des Moines
Bridge and Iron Company are to do all
of the iron work, lay the pipes, etc.,
build the stand-pipe, which will be 10
Gated on the city water works ground,
build the pump house, which will be
located on the east side of the pond.
The pump house will be neat brick
building and with good weather will
be finished in the course OF about two
weeks. The water will be pumped into
the stand-pipe, and this will give the
force to send the water to all who care
to use it, The principal users will be
THE Grinnell Electric and Heating
Company" THE Spaulding Mfg. Co.,
and THE Tannery" There will be a
plenty of water for every one who
cares to use it. When the pond has
been completed it is rumored that the
company intends to start a beautifuf
park all around the pond. The pond
itself will cover about thirty acres
and since the piece is fifty acre tract,
this will leave twenty acres for park.
The pond will no doubt be well supplied
with all kinds of fish. In the winter
time there will be good skating which
will be free to all when the ice is firm
enough. There will be several boats
and it is said that n steam launch
will be put onto the lake, but this has
not been vouched for yet. When our
city railway is put in cars will run
every twenty minutes. The pond is
owned by the "Grinnell Water Com
pany." The bridge leading into the
cemetery will have to be raised. The
reason for putting in the pond was in
order to save the boilers, the city water
being very hard on them. Now that
we have the facilities for running them
it is expected that we will be able get
more factories to locate here. The pond
will be boon to the railroad author
tiles, as now they will not have to haul
their water to Grinnell in dry seasons
if they choose to use the soft water.
The water will cost ten cents per thou
sand gallons.

Iowa Express Agents Notified
Not to Handle G. 0. D.
Liquor Packages
SUPREME COURT is FEARED
Recent Decision Enough to Scare the
acknowledgements Will Not In
cur Further Expense in Fighting the
Prohibitory Law - Tetotallers Are
JubiIant Over 1t.
Special to Times-Republlcan.


Des Moines, Nov. 1.-THE superin-
tendents of express companies which
do business in Iowa have issued posi-
tive and specific orders to their agents
in other states not to accept shipments
of Intoxicating liquors for delivery to
Iowa points C. O. ID. This is in accord
ance with the decision of the state SUI
IRENE court delivered at the last term
when It was held that such shipments
and the collection of the compensation
for the liquors constitutes a violation of
the state prohibitory laws. The court
proceeding constituted sale of the
liquor at the time of delivery and pay
ment of the price by the purchaser, for
the court has previously held that such
IS not the case, but the court did hold
that taking all things into consideration
the transaction was contrary to the
spirit of the Iowa prohibitory law. The
express companies do not care to con-
tinue the opposition to the law any fur
Their and will go to no further expense
to establish their right to carry c. 0. ID.
liquor packages. This has been con-
siderable part of the business of the ex-
press companies since prohibition went
into force in Iowa, and the orders will
curtail their business materially
At the same time it will cause rejoicing
among the advocates of total abstinence
in many counties of the state who have
found that tho abilify of the EXPRESS
companies to deal in liquors In every
town of the state was serious hind
rance to the enforcement of prohibition.

REMARKABLE SUCCESS
OF a New catarrh Cure.

A large and constantly increasing
majority of the American people are
catarrh sufferers. This is not entirely
the result of our changeable climate,
but because modern investigation has
clearly proven that many diseases,
known by other names, are really ca
tarrh. Formerly the name catarrh was
applied almost exclusively TO the COM
mon nasal catarrh, but the throat,
stomach, liver, bladder, kidneys and in
testines are subject to catarrhal dis-
eases as we'll as the nasal passages.
In fact, wherever there is mucous
membrane there is feeding ground
for catarrh.
The usual remedies, inhalers. sprays,
douches or powders, have been pract1-
cally failures, as far as anything more
than temporary relief was concerned,
because they simply dry up the mucous
secretions, without having the remot-
est effect upon the blood and liver,
which are the real sources of catarrhal
diseases.
1t has been known for some years
that the radical cure of catarrh could
never come from local applications, but
from an internal remedy, acting on the
blood and expelling the catarrhal poi
son from the system.
A new internal preparation, which
has been on the market only short
time, has met with remarkable success
as a genuine, radical cure for catarrh.
1t may be found in any drug store,
sold under the name of Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets, large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, composed principally of anti
septic ingredients, Bloodroot, Red Gum
and similar catarrh specifics.
DIR. Ainslee in speaking of the new
catarrh cure says: II have tried the
new catarrh remedy, Stuarts Catarrh
Tablets, upon thirty or forty patients
with remarkably satisfactory results.
They clear the head and throat more
effectually and lastingly than any
douche or inhaler that have ever seen,
and altho they are what is called a
patent medicine and sold by druggists,

AFTER X. c. BUSINESS.
Great Northern May Build From Sioux
Citv to Omaha.

Sioux City, Nov. 11.-Rumor in local
railroad quarters is that the Hill sys-
tenn Of roads is planning to go after a
large slice of the Kansas City-St. Paul
thru business, and that in the near fu-'
ture announcement may be made of ar
engagements to close up the gap between
Sioux City and Omaha, which now di-
yides the Burlington from the Great
Northern system, in Missouri river
territory.
This, it is said, may not involve
building any new road. In fact it is
intimated today that the Omaha North
ern may not be built, and that, in or
der to prevent its construction the
Northwestern system may grant con-
cessions over it's tracks between Omaha
and Sioux City, under which the Hill
roads will be able to handle their own
thru business.
AT present the Northern Hill sys-
tenn ends at Sioux City, SO far as the
Missouri river business is concerned.
The Northwestern and Omaha roads
control the up and down river business
from Omaha to st. Paul and Minneap-
oils, via Sioux City. The Burlington
system originates a very large share
of the business which the Vanderbilt
roads get at Omaha and haul to st.
Paul.
Thus Mr.. Hill controlling the Bur-
lington on the south and the Great
Northern on the north is cut out of
the business because he can't get over
the Omaha Sioux City gap. If he should
build that ninety miles of road he
would handle his own business from
Kansas City to the Twin cities, and
vice versa.
On freight business an arrangement
with the st. Paul is limited at, under
which the gap between Sioux City and
Omaha would be filed by hauling bust
ness around by Manila. This would
add eighty miles to the distance, but
would not be serious as to freight. 1t
would take great deal of freight
away from the Vanderbilt lines, how
ever, and might induce them to make
concessions for the use of their own
track between Sioux City and Omaha.
There is high authority for the state
ment that these matters are now under
consideration by the roads concerned.
1t is expected that in q short time an
nouncements will be made concerning
the outcome
