might be interesting to know that the
cost OF furnishing water for irrigating

And that $5.l2 per acre. or 40 cents
per ton of sugar, was expended in or.

also has taken longer to erect. But
this was owing to stress of Circum.

labor supply has been scant: these
large crops had to be taken off: and
the new mill was of necessity delayed.

IOWA,S SOLDIER CONGRESS-
MEN

Burlington Hawkeye: 1t has been
charged that Iowa has not been mind
full of the soldiers of the civil war as
it might have been because it has
never sent a soldier to the United
States senate. There is nothing in
this charge, which finds it's incuba-
tion in the democratic and "independ-
ent" press. The conditions have been
such that Iowa has had strong repre-
sentation in the senate by men in
civil life but who nevertheless were
able by their talent and potent influ-
ence to do everything that any one
could do for the veterans of the war.
In every other available political van
tage, Iowa has put the soldiers to the
front; in the executive, legislative and
judicial departments and also to gain
for them seats in the cabinets of var
ious presidents and appointments to
federal positions at home and abroad.
And although many of the soldiers of
the civil war have reached an age
where public service is no longer at
tractive or available to them, the
men are soldiers. And every one of
them will be renominated and reel
ected. They are Henderson, Hedge,
Hepburn, Hull, Lacey and Rumple.
These soldier congressman have made
splendid records of public service
which fully justify the Iowa State
Register in the following comment:
1t is true that death is wedding
out the old soldiers who first nomi-
mated and elected Congressman
Henderson, but that best of all
American leaven still abides in ev-
cry township in that and all other
Iowa congressional districts, and
there is no doubt that all republi.
cans who appreciate valor and pa.
triotism are in favor of continuing
the service of Iowa's soldier con-
gressmen as long as they can best
serve the people of their district,
state and nation. The prominence
of those soldier congressman in con.
gress and all national affairs, is
the very best evidence that the true
republicans of Iowa cannot be de.
ceived and misled by all the "inde.
pendent and mugwump reform.
ers." The Republican might well
have asked who are the leading
Iowans in congress, aside from those
who were in that body during the
war or in the battle front? Please
name the members of the Iowa
delegation whose experience and
services have placed the peerless
state of the world in the leadership
of national affairs. The facts and
circumstances speak for themselves
and the republicans of Iowa have
full knowledge of the whole situa
tion.

future of the city. Those outside OF
the city who were on the program
were j. w. Johnson, of the Abba I'm

Star, and j. w. Jarnagin, of the Mon
tezuma Republican. mere was music
by the famous Oskaloosa band, and
the o. @. quartette rendered vocal se-
lections to the delight of those present.
Probably $50 of the progressive, pub
lic-spirited citizens of the place were
present. The number of young men
in attendance. who are the moving
spirits in everything calculated to
benefit the city, was noticeable feat
ure. The president of the Board Of
Trade is Samuel Baldauf, and that he
has a trusty lot of Iieutenants is mani
fest on every hand. The people of Os-
kaloosa have taken on new life and
energy. The city has always had a
good, wholesome growth, but it is now
proposed to reach out for a more ex-
tensive field. Franchises have been
voted for two electric lines to enter
the city, the boundary of the place has
been enlarged, so that now some H.
600 inhabitants are within the corpof-
ate limits, and campaign has been
started that promises great things for
the hustling city. G. w. Shock1ey, of
the Globe. gave us an opportunity to
witness the progress being made in
the residence portions of theeeyrpcc, o
No town in Iowa can show a hand
somer lot of homes with attractive
surroundings in the way of well-kept
lawns. The people over there are to
be commended for the interest taken
along that line. In many cities every
thing runs to business and but little
attention is given to home building.
With all of it's push anu energy this
phase has not been neglected in Oska-
loosa. 1t is clean, attractive place,
and better class of people are not to
be found anywhere.

DISAPPEARING LAKE.

One of the interesting problems
which has come under the notice of
the photographers of the United
States Geological Survey is the grad
ual drying up of Devils Lake in
North Dakota. DEVILS Lake, or Lake
Minnewauka as it is called by the In
dians, is the largest body of water in
the state. 1t belongs to the numerous
class of lakes formed by the great
glacial ice sheet on it's final retreat
toward the north. Then and for some
time after, when it was fed by the
heavy rains following the glacial per-
iod, it had an outlet to the south into
the Sheyenne river; and well mark
ed and empty channel still remains
between the lake and the river. Long
before settlers first came to the region,
in 1880, the lake had sunk below the
level of this channel and mas since
been without an outlet. Regular OBJ
servations for the last nineteen years
show a steady and almost uninterrupt-
ed sinking of the water. Groves of
trees, which once stood at the beach,
are NOW separated from it by broad
strips of sand and the shallow parts
of the lake, notably the long arms
and bays, have been left quite dry.
Another important and interesting
feature. is the change in the water
from fresh to salt; this has taken
place within the memory of man, and
is in some particulars producing un-
favorable results. Fish were found in
the lake in great abundance up to
about 1888: since then they have
grown rapidly less, until now, prac-
tically none are caught.
The United States Geological Sur
vey has recently established a bench
mark near the lake, and, under the
charge of Prof. c. M. Hall, of the
state Agricultural College, will make
careful records of the fluctuations of
the waters and general study of
their decline. The investigation prom
ises most interesting results, which
may throw some light upon the eli
matte conditions of the past

Congressman Henry Q. Smith, OF
Michigan, occasionally brightens his
speeches with snatches of song. The
other day he said the Cuban recipro-
city bill reminded him of the follow
ing, which was duly printed in the
Congressional Record:

In the establishment of home
and a competency for old age, the
struggle is not always confined to the
man. Many a woman is proving equal
to any occasion that may arise and
accepts the sacrifices nobly. Rev.
d F. Stiles, a young Methodist preach
er at Reasner, drew farm in the
Oklahoma lottery last spring. Not
being financially able to give up his
work, and wishing to hold the land,
his brave wife came to his rescue and
with her children is holding down
ths claim, while Rev. Stiles continues
his good work in the ministry.

-0skaloosa people generelly will
be pleased to learn of the splendid
promotion that has come to Mr.. 9.
w. Huntington of this city, superin-
tendent OF the operating department
of the Iowa Central Railroad. The
call to "a larger field of labor comes
from the east where matters are
measured not so much by the stand
ard of cost but more with view to-
ward what is best. Our people are
glad of the good fortune that has
come to Mr.. Huntington but the re-
gret that, we are to part with the
gentleman and his family will be ex
pressed from all sides. The merit
and the worth of the gentleman has
brought a recognition that must be
gratifying alike to himself and to his
friends. His capabilities will have
and his abilities given larger field
for action in the new place. The
gentleman has done most excellent
work here with what he had to do
but in place where resources are
comparatively without limit the op-
portunities for action are cores
pondingly greater. Mr.. Huntington
is an Iowa man. He has been taught
his lessons in railroading within the
state and all his successes have
been within her boundary lines. The
call to aihigher place is not only a
pleasing compliment to Mr.. Hunting
ton but it is. saying much of the worth
of Iowa men and Iowa ideas. An
other change that is recently an
nounced and that is heard of with
pleasure by the hosts of friends of
the young man is the calling of Chas.
s. Walters to the position of district
passenger agent of the Iowa Central
in the territory east of the Missis-
sippi river with headquarters in
Peoria. The young man is peculiarly
fitted for the position and judging
from past successes and records
established in this same field
his friends will have no reason to
believe their confidence in his ability
has been misplaced.

IOWA AT WASHINGTON.

One of the orators at the Grant club
banquet in Des Moines Monday even
ing was Hugh Gordon Miller of Vir-
ginia- While in the capital city Mr..
Miller told a newspaper reporter that
the east is just beginning to wake up
to the fact that Iowa is great state,
and that the appointment of Ret
Clarkson to be surveyor of the port of
New York was greater surprise than
the selection of Governor Shaw as
secretary of the treasury. According
to Mr.. Miller, the eastern states were
astonished by the first appointment
and dazed by the second. The posi-
tion of surveyor commands a larger
salary than that drawn by a member
of congress and a salary equal to that
of the vice-president of the United
States. Mr.. Miller is quoted as saying
in this connections:
Why, | tell you that's all they are
talking about back in the coast states
and that's all they will be talking about
for some little time-that and Iowa.
The magazine writer's took up the
question of the greatnes sof Iowa when
Shaw was appointed. People in the
east read, but they did not catch the
deep significance. They are opening
their eyes to the power of iowa now.
They are waking up back there in
those states to the fact that Iowa is a
situation that must be met
| believe that at the present time
Iowa has the most powerful delegation
at Washington which it has ever been
the fortune of any state to have since
the organization of the government.
Iowa is now the pivotal state of the
union. All things else revo1ve about
it. Iowa has only to ask and she can
receive, and she is even receiving
without the asking.

The recent resolution passed by
the Board of Education to the effect
that no teacher in the Oskaloosa
schools, shall hereafter receive more
than $40 per month, is condemned by
every person who has knowledge OF
the affair. On the one hand it is sug-
gested that if the resolution is in
teachers who are nowreceiving more
than that amount request for their
resignationswould be more business
like-while on the other hand If quail
ification, experience and ability are
not to be recognized in Oskaloosa
teachers, then the beginninglof the
end of good schools is in sight.

A LARGE FEEDERS VIEWS.

Keokuk Gate City: David Rankin,
of Tarkio, Mo-, who enjoys the dis
tinction of being the greatest farmer
in the world, and who feeds more
cattle than any other person east or
west, has very pronounced views on
the beef question. He is very empha-
tic in his opinion that all the talk
about the presenth Ugh prices of meat
products being due to a combination
on the part of packers is without war
rant He declares there is nothing in
it and that there is no good reason
why Accent steer fed on 60-cent corn
or $50 cotton seed meal should not
bring enough money to pay for the
feed in him. That is all present prices
are doing, according to Mr.. Rankin.
In recent interview he said:

THE VANCE CASE.

Ottumwa Courier: 1t is not nee
essary for the Courier or any one
else to preach an extended sermon on
the Vance case. The moral of the
story has already impressed itself on
the community. 1t is but another ex.
emplification of the eternal fact that
the sorrow of sin is the real abiding
sorrow in the world, compared with
which the bereavement of death is as
nothing.
There are those who will scott at
all religion because the person who
has been adjuged guilty in this case,
was a member of the church, the Y.
NJ. c. A. and the Christian Endeavor
Society. Yet the most irreverent scoffer
will admit that had the person refer
red to been true to the principles
taught by the church, the Y. nj. G. A.
and the Christian Endeavor, he would
not be surrounded by the disgrace and
ruin which have overtaken him. 1t is
not Christianity, but the individual
that is at fault. Mere profession OF
faith in creeds, doctrines and systems
of religion do not make men good. II

WILL REST AT ARLlNGON
HEIHHpS

During the coming week the body
of Major General w. S. Rosecrans
will be taken from it's resting place
at Los Angeles, and it will be car
ried across the continent and laid
to rest in the national cemetery at
Arlington Heights, ID. c.
This worn is done by the Army
of Cumberland as a labor of love and
tribute to the memory of their old
commander.
The details of the transportation
and ceremonial have been arranged
by General Boynton, who is present
commander of the army of the Cum
berland, succeeding Gen. Rosecrans
who was president during his life.
Mr.. c. F. Rosecrans, the generals
only surviving son, will accompany
the remains to Washington. The
daughters, Mrs. Gov. Toole, of
Helena, Montana, and Miss A. D.
Rosecrans, of the same place, will be
present at Los Angeles.
At Washington the anal ceremonial
will occur on May II, and the pro-
gram includes an address by the presi-
dent and by several members of con-
gress. General Rosecrans one surviv-
ing brother, HI. C. Rosecrans, of What
Cheer, will not be able to take the trip
to Washington.
Genl Rosecrans was a regular
West Point graduate, but had left the
army some years before the breaking
out of the rebellion. He was among
the first volunteers, and raising a re.
giment entered the army as colonel.
His brilliant campaign in West Va,
his successful one in the army of the
Cumberland are matters of history,
and though that history has some
times been distorted by vindictive
enemies and by INSCRIPTIONS parts
ans, the memory of the old hero lives
enshrined in the hearts of the boys in
blue with whom he fought.
