Carroll Herald: Charles Subbert, of
Grant township, has a walnut grove
that produced several bushels of nuts
the past season. This grove was
planted but comparatively few years
ago, and now it is useful as furnishing
shelter, timber and incidentally an
abundant yield of nuts.

INTERVIEWS AT LONG RANGE.


Rev. H. V. Adam, pastor of Highland
Park (Des Moines) Methodist church.
State wide prohibition has proven a
failure in all those communities where
public sentiment is averse to its en-
forcement. No law is of any force
which is in advance of public senti-
ment Reformers mistake who seek
law first, and then education of public.
There must first be creation of public
sentiment, and then we can easily
crystalize it in the form of law. An
openly disregarded law in any COM
munity breeds a spirit of lawlessness
which is more destructive to order
than the evils against which the law
was directed. 1t is not the province of
law to regenerate, and therefore no
law can be enforced in any community
where the moral sentiment is below
the grade which the law anticipates.
The.law cannot be better than its max
ersi nor can it be given power to i'm
prove its makers. Local option, mar
rowedfto each election precinct, would
so simplify matters that each commun-
ity could easily cope with the problem.
Local option was the plan which God
adopted in Eden, and the inhabitants
of the place chose the evil. Every
community has done the same thing
where the sentiment was favorable to
the evil. There fare no saloons in
Highland Park because public senti-
ment will not tolerate them. Given
same conditions IN every community,
and there would be no saloons any
where. The secret ballot would be a
much more satisfactory method of de-
termining real public sentiment. Let
there be printed ON each ballot at
every annual election the question:
Shall the saloon be licensed this com
ing year in this precinct?' Such a
plan would remove the, question entire
ly from politics, and we would have
each year an accurate register of real
public sentiment on the issue.
E. r. Mason, clerk of the circuit
court, at keokuk.-I don't believe
Miles will get it. He is not showing
the strength necessary in the district.
Who will get it? / think it'll be Tenn
ple-yes; the same man whose name
Is attached to the Temple amendment.
He's in the legislature again and is
very strong up in his district-in fact
think he went to the legislature
against his inclination this time at the
earnest solicitation of some people
who want the eighth district boundar-
les changed. He is very strong man
and l believe that the powers that be
will secure his appointment if it is
possible, about the time the legislature
adjourns. You watch and see; and if
Miles is not appointed within the next
month he won't be appointed at all.
There's feeling against giving him a
third term, and personally l myself
am firm believer in rotation in office
among republicans. Miles made his
maximum fees of $4,000 year, I'M
derstand, during his first term, and
now he's getting a good salary-it
looks like it's time to pass it along.
George Stewart once thought he was a
candidate for the place. It's pretty
straight that even if Miles is reap
pointed Stewart won't be deputy
| collector another term.

TRUSTS IN NO DANGER
Little Likelihood That Congress
Will Pass Any Measures of
Reform This Winter.
Especial to The Herald \

Washington. Nov. 23-AIthough there
is great deal of talk going around
about what the Republicans intend to do
IN the way of antitrust legisla ton at
the coming session, the chances IRE that
no legislation to this end will be enacted
between Dec ! and March 4 next This
view IS entertained by Representativ tive
richardson of Tennessee, the Democratic
leader in the house, and man whose
judgment is always conservatives
The Democrats stand ready 10 help
the Republicans enact antitrust legisla-
ton, said Mr.. Richardson today. The
administration can count upon us to SUD
port any reasonable measure to that end
| believe the vote of the Democrats in the
house will be unanimous in that regard.
But he added. Il do not anticipate
that the Republicans will make any Sc
rious attempt to strengthen the antitrust
laws. They will probably do nothing at
the coming session, and probably Moth
ing IN the next congress-
Asked if he favored tariff revision as a
means of curbing the trusts, Mr.. R1cn-
ardson replied:
I'VE are for revision of the tariff. and
should like to see it accomplished i'm

demand for such action from the coun-

CASSIDY NOT WANTED
BY WYOMING OFFICERS
(special Id nc Heraldl

Cheyenne. Wyo., Nov. 22.-The story
in Denver morning paper to the eff
feet that Butch" Cassidy, the famous
outlaw. had visited Grand Encamp-
ment. and that rewards aggregat:ng
$4,000 are offered for Cassidy dead or
alive, caused considerable amusement
among officers of the law here today.
The truth of the matter is, there is no
reward here for Cassidy. he has not
been in Encampment. but is now on
ranch in Idaho, and the officers of
this state do not want him. In fact.
Cassidy left the state several years
ago with the understanding that If he
did not return the old charges of train
and bank robbery and cattle stealing
would not be pushed against him. One
officer has kept track of Cassidy and
II is his opinion that the one-time no.
torious outlaw has not turned a trick
for many years and is now leading a
good life. so far as criminal acts are
concerned at least

MANY ASPIRANTS FOR
THE SPEAKERSnIP
Especial to The Herald.)

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 2S.-There
promises 10 be a sharp contest in the
Republican legislative caucus next
month over the selection of speaker
and president of the house and SEN
ate, respectively. There are now no less
than FIVE candidates for the position
of speaker, and all are working hard
for the place. Lyman B. Cooper Of
Converse county and Jerome s
Atherly of Albany county appear to
have the greatest strength at this
time, and the contest will probably
narrow down to these two in the end
Mr.. Cooper has served in the legis-
lature and is a good parliamentarian
Mr.. Atheriy was speaker of the last
house of representatives and is there
fore well qualified for the position. The
other counties that have put forward
candidates are Laramie. Carbon and
Sheridan
For president of the senate the only
name that has been mentioned is that
of Charles a. Guernsey of Guernsey.
Mr.. Guernsey was president pro TEN of
the last senate body, and as the Lara
ME county delegation is solid for him
and viii make hard fight for his
selection, il is believed he viii meet
with no opposition. Lara ME county
usually carries away this plum zone of
her senators having flied fhes ci1air for
four consecutive terms.

1T may interest some fellow Democrats
to know that SO distinguished a member
Of the party as Justice r. w. Peckham
of the United States supreme court was
offered so far as any one but the con-
vention itself could do so, the last
nomination for governor. At Mr.. Hill S
request, ] went to see Justice Peckhan,
the middle of August at SaranaC Lake,
where he was spending the summer. and
informed him while ii was not IN the
power of anyone to tender a nomination,
it was Mr.. HIPS desire that he should
allow his name TO come before the con-
vention; that Mr.. Hill and others be-
lieved there was a probability of the cleo
ton of the Democratic ticket; that Judge
Gray was to be renominated; that the
other names on the ticket would be those
of men of high character and ability and
that. if elected governor, he (PecRham)
would be inevitably the most prominent
Democratic candidate for the presidency
in 1904, and that ne would have, so far
as Mr.. Hill could promise, the ardent
support of New York state in the ma
tiOnal convention. Justice Peckham re-
piled that even the certainty of an cleo
ton as governor, and after that the as
surance of the nomination for president
would not sWerve him from his determine
ton not to be a candidate for political
office Personal reasons compelled hin
to this decision.
Il have Justice Peckham's permission
to make this entire incident public.

SIGNS MULTIPLY OF
UPHEAVAL IN RUSSIA

st. Petersburg, Nov. 23.-Tremendous
effect has been produced in Russia by
the unanimous demand of the agri-
cultural inquiry commission for con-
stitutional reforms and political liberty
as the foundation of economic we'll
being. In spite Of Minister Whites en-
couraging words TO speak boldly, DE
cause the employer wants to know the
entire truth" the minister of the in
terror. Won Plowhe, has begun ar
resting the members of the commits
sion, including among them a ply
sician named Martincy, for the author
ity of the resolutions presented to the
local committee of Veronzah, demand
ing a national congress, and two other
members of the agricultural commits
sion, named Michaeloyich and Nikoviy
of Tula, for advocating a remission of
the peasant land payments. MARITIME
VyscOlobarator. and a school teacher
named Bonivok are now awaiting
sentence.
1t is rumored that the students yes
terday sang a number of revolution
airy songs and shouted, Down with
the autocracyi" at a ball given in the
hall of the nobility. None were ar
rested. Arrests of students and work
and have been so in various other cities
recently.
The breach between Minister White
and Won Plowhe probably will be
smoothed over for the present, as VoT
Plowhe has promised to call a con-
ference of the executive committees
of the provincial zemstooS to consider
agricultural relief which is a conces-
sion to Minister Whites policy.

BANANA. Nov 23.-The Star and

on Thursday on the Wisconsin, a
distinguished son of Uncle Sam, Rear
Admiral Silas Casey, acted as a me-
diator and peacemaker, which conduct.
it remarks, reflects great credit on a
nation whose motives for doing good
are too frequently disparaged. Admiral
Casey, in a brilliant speech, extended
to the negotiators his heartfelt good
wishes, highly praising them for their
judgment and patriotism and their ar
rangement of such a delicate matter.
General Cobas, chief of Minister Per-
dOmo's staff. who spoke in English,
made an eloquent reply to this speech,
and, in the name of Colombia, thanked
the gallant admiral for the hospitality
and attention the negotiators had re-
ceived on board his flagship, and also
for his generous Intervention in the
arrangement to bring about peace in
that zone of Colombian territory. 1t
