From reports received we
.igure that one bottle of SCOTS
emulsion sometimes builds
seven times its weight of solid,
healthy flesh! Why is this soi
Because SCOTS Emulsion is
itself the richest and most
digestible Of foods.
Because SCOTS Emulsion
gives strong appetite.
Because SCOTS Emulsion
makes all good food do good

Because SCOTS Emulsion

THE COL0RADO WAY.

George r. Lee, a former editor of
the HERALD, now publishing the Re-
gister at Brighton, Colorado, still
retains warm spot in his heart for
old Iowa, and takes keen interest
in her welfare. For this reason the
following letter will be of interest to
our readers, not only for the infor-
nation it contains but also from the
fact of Mr.. Lee's acquaintance here:
Editor Herald: / have just read in
your issue of the 18th that bill has
been introduced in the Iowa legisla-
ture changing your present system OF
road work, and making each county
unit for the care of all county roads
and bridges. The system has been in
operation in this county for several
years and has proven so complete a
success and so great an improvement
that under no circumstances would
we go back to the old township road
supervisor system. l will not take
your space to detail the method, but in
outline may say: We have one or
more road and bridge outfits, consist
ing of horses, plows, scrapers, graders
and all necessary appliances These
with the employees are under charge
of a competent man. A tent for the
men and another for the horses, with
all needed appliances for cooking and
sleeping the employees are provided,
and when piece of road is to be re-
paired the outfit moves there, goes in
to camp and stays until the work is
completed. And the work is always
well done. and after regular system.
The advantages are: Uniformity of
method, and experience in doing the
work. The foreman is always an ex-
perienced grader, who Iever makes
any expensive mistakes in cutting or
filling; the horses, being trained to
the work, accomplish very much more
than the unframed farm teams used
under the old system, and the men ac-
quire an aptness that only comes or
long practice. So that when the out
fit does a job it is done to stay. The
same is true of the bridge outfit There
is no cut and try on its part. II
knows just what to do. how to do it,
and when to do it. This system has
been found much cheaper than the old
way, and there is something to show
I for the money expended. If the real
interest of the travelling public is con
| sidered you will adopt this or a simi-
| lar system. 1t used to be said some
years ago in Oskaloosa that whenever
a councilman wanted sack of -four
he had meeting of the town council
called. The township road supervis-
or does about the same way. when he
has nothing else to do, he goes out on
the road and ''putters" around for a
while, and sends in bill for days
work. Very truly,
GEO. r. LEE.

ITENERENT PEDDLERS.

Editors Herald: The strenuous
efforts of the city OF Oskaloosa at this
particular period for the bette rment
and the upbuilding of our city IL get
ting some serious jolts, and it is be-
lieved attention should be called to
the matter. A case in point as fol-
lows: Solicitors from Chicago have
been securing the country and the
city also for weeks soliciting orders
for groceries, dry goods and about
everything else used and consumed
by the human race and to the dis
credit OF the unthinking part of our
community. These parties have sue
ceeded in making sales in quantities
that necessitates shipments in car
load lots, Monday, February "a, being
one of the delivery days and at the
corner of E street and A avenue
car on B. & w. tracks has been sur
rounded by scores of teams of every
line and description loading and carry
ing away the goods. A fair estimate
would reach two hundred patrons.
Cheaper than our merchants sell is
the pretext for this very doubtful
business. 1t would seem as though
the efforts of the press to call atten-
tion to the many and various schemes
by which these fellows mislead the
public, as a rule ini these deals, is
either forgotten or.sadly neglected,
in any event the whole thing is wrong
in principal. 1t kills the town and in
the end Injuries the people who are
selfish or foolish enough to engage
in the trade. In the majority of cases
all are better served and get better
goods at equally as low prices,
and in patroniziDg home merchants
you display good sense and maintain
home pride as well as help build up
your home town, so We ask our peo-
pie to stop and think this matter
over and carefully weigh the results.
If they will do this we believe these
Entaxed, unlicensed and more than
likely irresponsible parties will be
given the 90 by and then we can
whoop 'er up for a greater Osk aloosa.

MAINTAIN MAN!

Baltimore American:-He will give
his seat in the street car to a feeble
old woman. and be proud in the
thought that the other passengers
consider him the pink of gallantry.
He VIII give his seat in the street
car to pretty girl and wonder itshe
doesn't believe in love at first sight.
He will sit up till a. m. at a pen
ny ante game and rejoice more over
winning 40 cents than be will next
day over a business deal that nets
him a thousand dollars.
He will lose 60 cents in the same
poker game and be angrier with the
other players than he would be with
a man who sold him $40 horse for
$3.50.
He iibes a woman because of her
vanity and spends an hour before the
mirror when he is preparing to call
on one of the fair sex.
He tells his wife just how the gov
ernment should settle the canal ques-
tiou and has to hire laborer to map
out a drain through his back yard
He prates about the foolishness of
courtiug public notice, but he never
drives through vacant streets.

EARLY CONVENTIONS.

New Sharon Star: 1t may be con-
sidered bit early to say word
about county politics while it is yet
zero weather, but we want to remark
before the snow has departed and
the birds and blossoms have come
again, that we are hoping for an
early nominating convention. A late
convention is always a source Of
weakness. Devoting too many
months to the selecting of candidates
is sure to engender too much strife
within the party. After nominations
are made every republican gun can
be turned upon the enemy, and the
sooner the better. The grape and
canister volleys that tear through
republican ranks before nominations
are made only serve to make sore
spots that otherwise would not exist,
and which barrels of arnica will not
heal. We have no pets for office, are
only anxious for a good ticket, a hot,
clean campaign with righteous re-
publican ending.

kerchief saturated with chloroform
indicates Farrell and his sister were

bers had completed their work. Re-
sistance being offered, the victims

furniture indicated terrible contest.
One of Farrell's arms were broken in
two places and there were numerous
cuts and bruises on the body. His
sister was also badly lacerated and
bruised. At late hour this afternoon

IOWA LEGISLATURE.
Woman Suffrage Bill Passes the
Senate this Morning

Des Moines, Feb. 26.-The Woman
Suffrage bill passed the Senate this
morning by vote of 2S to Is.
Two important measures passed
the different houses of the Legis-
lature on Tuesday. The Emmert
bill establishing reformatory for
men at Anamosa was passed in the
senate and the house passed the Gum
mings bill increasing the salary OF the
supreme court judges to $1,000 and
requiring them to live In Des Moines.
A bill was introduced in the senate
establishing board of examiners for
osteopathic physicians. There is an
understanding that the state board of
medical examiners will not oppose
the measure. 1t removes osteopaths
from the charge of the medical board.
On message from Governor Gum
Minis transmitted to the legislature
Tuesday bills were introduced to APP
propriate $1,000 with which to buy
new clothing, furniture and wigwams
for the Indians on Tama reservation,
whose property the state is required
to destroy on account of the epidemic
of smallpox there the past year. The
disease has run its course, the prop
erty is impossible OF fumigation and
the Indians cannot be kept in quar-
antine on account of the approach of
the hunting season.

The need of the Lacey law to pre-
serve game is shown by the fact that
systematic inquiries into the present
condition of bird life in Missouri,
made by the Audubon society, bring
to light the surprising discovery that
within the last fifteen years insectivor-
Gus birds have decreased 81 percent
and game birds so percent. A cor
respondent in Vernon county, which
is on the western border of the state,
writes that o-called sportsmen and
the neglect of game laws have de-
stroyed from 80 to so percent of all
birds in that section. ,and that prairie
chickens, deer and wild turkey are
extinct.

DEWEY AND DEWITT.

New Sharon Star: The efficient
manner in which the work of the re-
cent term of court in this county
was conducted by Judge Dewey and
Prosecutor Dewitt Is decidedly pleasing
to theipeople. 1t was large docket
to begin with, but the judicial mill
was promptly set in motion aud kept
steadily grinding until every case
was disposed Of. Not one of the
sixty cases before the grand jury is
left over. except where the indicted
parties have left the country, are
fugitives from justice. This is highly
refreshing to the people who are
compelled to pay taxes to meet a
tremendous sum total for court ex-
penses. Promptness on the part of
court officials materially lessons this
expense and we lift our cap to Messrs
Dewey and Dewitt for the prompt
and efficient manner in which the
big grist of dirty business was trans
acted. They have but to maintain
this pace to merit and receive un-
stinted endorsement of the people.
The average voter violates no law
simply pays the bill for prosecuting
those who do, and he has supreme
right to instist that neither time, ef-
fort or money be wasted. Especial

The public spirit manifested by
Archbishop Keane, of Dubuque, is
most commendable. Notwithstand-
ing the decision of the Iowa supreme
court in favor of property owners on
Main street in their refusal to pay
for the Improvement of the same.
Mr.. Keane has sent in a check to the
city treasurer for nearly So 900, to pay
for the Improvement done on church
property. Other Catholic institutions
on Main street will probably do the
same. The archbishop says the prop
erty has been rendered more valu-
able and it is only right it should be
paid for.

The Cedar Rapids Record says:
"The Cedar Rapids and Marion Tele-
phone Company will issue new d.
rectory the coming week. 1t will
show nearly 1,100 'phones in use
which is not bad for town like Cedar
Rapids" No, that is not bad for a
town like Cedar Rapids, which with
Marion has a population of over 3O,-
900, but IL is not in the same class
with Oskaloosa. With a population
only little more than one-third as
great, the Home Telephone Company
of this city has over 900 subscribers.
Oskaloosa may not have as many
people as some other cities, but it is
the most wide-awake place in Iowa
Just the same.

ELBERT HUBBARD
The Original ROycrofter Furnishes Ex-
cellent Number of fLecture Course.

The patrons of the Union Lecture
Course were given treat Tuesday
evening in the lecture by Ebert Hub
bard, the successful organizer and
head of the "Roycrofters' of East
Aurora, New York. The talk of the
gentleman was about his book MAX
ing establishment and the people who
make the books. He digressed at
times into channels OF thought sug-
gested by the points made concerning
his "boys and girls" Mr.. Hubbard
is matter of fact talker and given 10
vein of humor that is all his own.
The gentleman is interesting in Rp-
pearance and an auditor is equally
interested in the mans sayings. There
is no attempt at oratory Just the
ordinary straight forward talk Of q
man who has something to say and
who says it in way that is pleasing
and interesting.
Mr.. Hubbard started little print
shop at his homein East Aurora, New
York, in 1894. He started his work
along original lines and put book
upon the market that attracted at
tention on account of it's original
make-up. The gentleman had hit up
on popular chord and he increased
his shop and its force. Soon he had
almost more than he could do. He
was enterprising, made the most of
his opportunities, conducted his plant
upon business principles aud soon
had big business established. The
newness of the idea followed by Mr..
Hubbard in his work with the people
became advertised until to-day the
gentleman has great industry going
that employees 800 people in the art of
making books and things with their
hands," Some of the single volumes
turned out of his shop bring as high
as slOO per copy and they are no drug
on the market.
Mr.. Hubbard's enterprise began to
make good money and its succ ess at
tracted much attention from far and
near. People became interested in
the unique ideas promulgated by this
advocate of corporation and in tell
ing how it all came about Mr.. HUB
bard has been called to the lecture
platform. The work of the Roycroft
shop is widely known through hThe
Philistine" little monthly magazine
that is well known in the city of Os-
kaloosa. 1t has style that is dis
tinctly characteristic and breathes the
personality of its author, and incl
dentially circulation of ITO 900 copies
monthly.
The audience was very attentive.
His talk was interesting and the peo-
pie were pleased with the man. The
man was also pleased with his audi
ence, and found it an easy matter to
speak for an hour and half. The
lecture was easily the best of the
course, and all patrons were pleased
with it.

A FAUST FROST.
The Company DisappOints Audience
and Tries to Censure Mr. Fritz.

A company playing what was claim
ed to be Lewis Morrison's Faust was
at the Masonic opera house Tuesday
evening. Three acts had been play
ed when the curtain was let down
by the manager of the company who
claimed before the house that Man
ager Fritz of the Masonic had violated
his contract with the company. This
representative of the company failed
to state to the audience, however,
that he had made settlement with the
Office in full as per Mr.. Fritz's con-
tract and that he had the money due
the show company in his pocket. He
gave the audience the idea that the
entrance money was in the box Of
fee and would be refunded. This
caused considerable dissatisfaction.
Mr.. Fritz was misrepresented from
first to last and the show company
should be condemned for the acts of
its manager.
The clause in the contract that
caused the trouble stated that in case
another Faust company played in the
city within four weeks of the time of
the Morrison Company that an ad-
ditional ten percent of the gross re-
ceipts of the evening should be paid
the company. Another Faust had
been presented in the city within the
stipulated time and when the con-
tract had been drawn with the ad-
vance agent this clause had been
marked out in.the duplicate which
was retained by Mr.. Fritz, and he
supposed that it had been in the con-
tract handed to the company. Fritz
feels certain that both contracts were
alike but the manager of Tuesday
evening claimed that the clause still
was in force. He said nothing about
this clause until after making settle-
ment with the office. e The gross re-
ceipts of the evening we're s119 and
the amount taken by the show was
$50 5S. After the house expenses had
been paid Mr.. Fritz had as his per.
cent s1S.S7. Mr.. Fritz attached the
baggags of the company thinking to
hold the company for damages but
he released the property later and
permitted the company to go upor
its way. The audience hearing only
the show managers side of the story
felt inclined to censure Manager
Fritz, but those who have arrived a
the facts in the case condemn the
show management.
