Gov. Larrabee's Gift to CIermOnt.

There has been erected in little
park opposite the railroad station at
Clermont one of the finest monuments
in the state, the gift of EX- Governor
Larra5ee to his home town. The
monument, statue and historic bronze
tablet costs more than $1,000. This
work is of more than ordinary interest
from the fact that it has been con-
strucred under the almost personal
supervisor of the governor and his
own ideas. The heroic figure of
Abraham Lincoln, standing Z feet 6
inches, and the four tablets, all in
imperishable bronze, were executed
by Bissell, the noted New York sculp-
tor, and are worthy of especial note.
Mr. Lincoln holds in his hand the
emancipation proclamation and he
looks as though he meant every word
of H. The tablet ON the west is re-
production of the room and group of
all those assembled in the McLane
house at Appomatox accepting Lees
surrender. The tablet on the east re-
presents leaving for the war;" the
central figure in the bas-relief being
Thomas Henderson, brother of Colonel
d. B., wto was killed at Shiloh. The
tablet on the norh is scene at Pitts
burg Landing. In the foreground is a
surgeon from Clermont. the late DR..
Lewis, in attendance on, wounded
soldier; while at the head of his COM
pany is another Clermont hero, Cap
tain Warner, who died. rather than
surrender. The south tablet is scene
on board the flagship Hartford in
Mobile bay, Admiral Farragut iashed
to the rigging and the then Lieutenant
| George Dewey in charge of gun
crew. The relief for this grand
monument were planned by the COVER
nor and the inscriptions selected by
him and taken altogether we doubt
| whether there is another monument in
this country containing so much of
local interest. The pretty park in
which the monument is located Is
ornamented ait each corner by a piece
of heavy ordnance such as was used
in the civil war.

Can Get Mail SUNDAYS

According to Washington dis
patch, the acting general superinten-
dent of the free rural system has
handed down the following decision
which will be of interest to all people
living on free delivery rural routes.
Heretofore the patrons of the rural
routes were unable to secure their
mail which arrived after the carrier
left the postoffice on Saturday until
the delivery Monday morning.
"When the patrons of rural routes call
at the postoffice for their mail during
the hours the postoffices ARE regularly
open TO the public for transaction of
business it should be delivered to
them. Patrons are not required to
rent boxes in order to secure this SER
vice. The ruling will have the
effect of notifying all postmasters of
their duty towards rural route patrons,
and it applies to all postoffices in
the country.

of the oldest time pieces in existence
and is still in excellent condition.
The other is an autume snuff box that
was presented to Sheridan by his
friend, the great Irish poet, Tom
Moore. Mr.. Owen highly prizes his
curios, which through their age and
close association with two of the
worlds most noted writers, are very
valuable. They are both used by him
in his revival of 1.-The School For
Scandal and will be exhibited in
the windows of Brunt 81 Parman on
Thursday Dec. 4th, the date of the
company's appearance here.

Independent Telephone Lines Unite.

Representatives of sixteen indepen-
dent telephone companies of north
eastern Iowa met in Waterloo Tuesday
and organized an association under the
name of the Northeastern Iowa Inde-
pendent Telephone Association. The
following officers were elected:
President-Vic. Stevens, Dubuque.
Vice President-Mr Van Voorhies,
Independence.
Secretary and Treasurer-Stanley S.
Lichty, Vinton.
5. 5. Lichty was chosen chairman
of the meeting and W. M. Traer secre-
tary. The aims and advantages of the
association were discussed at length,
its principal object being to better ia
cilitate connection, the cultivation of
a fraternal and helpful spirit instead
of one of animosity among the inde-
pendent companies, and to regulate
tc II rates. Mr.. Stevens of the Dubuque
Telephone company, who was elected
president of the association, denies that
the formation of the association means
in any way the raising of rates to the
local patrons of the various com.
panies. He states that the associa-
tion was formed for mutual benefit,
as sort of board of arbitration to
settle disputes of the various indepen-
dent companies, such as questions of
boundary, connections, toll charges,
etc.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly trade
review gave out on Saturday the fol-
lowing statement of the business
situation. in which it will be noted
that there is no relief as yet from the
congested condition of the railroads,
owing to the large demand for holiday
shipments GA voluntary increase in
wages by some of the largest railway
systems in the country bears eloquent
testimony to the amount of business
handled in the past and emphasizes
the confidence in a continued heavy
traffic. Moreover by this addition of
a large sum to the purchasing power
of railway employees, there is az surance
of larger demand for all the staple
lines of merchandise. Temporarily
sales of seasonable lines of wearing
apparel are retarded by the mild
weather, but this loss will be fully
made up when low temperature be-
comes general. Preparations for the
holiday trade are on an unprecedented
scale, especially at interior points.
There is no relief as to the congestion
of railway traffic. nor anv immediate
propects for free movements at points

freight is steadily gaining and all rail
way earnings thus far reported for

Announcement was made on Friday
that the striking mine workers have
agreed with the mine owners to at
tempt TO adjust the differences be-
tween them outside of the strike COM
mission. The proposition was made
on compromise basis, and negotia-
tions, it is expected, will be at once
entered upon, with reasonable hope
arbitrators. The rough proposition,
which is to form the basis of negotia-
tions is a 10 per cent increase in
wages, a nine-hour day, and trade
agreements between the miners and
the company by whom employed.
The only one Of the four demands
not touched upon is that of weighing
coal by legal ton. Both sides have
expressed willingness to settle the
difference among themselves, but it is
not to be construed that it carries
with it an acceptance of the terms
proposed. They are mentioned only as
basis, it is understood, from which
a settlement is to be affected 1t is
possible that the foundation already
laid can be wrecked by either party
holding out too strongly against some
question and thus leave the whole
matter in the hands of the COM

The greatest crime against home,

general, which man can commit, Is
adultery, and yet it is claimed that no
individual can prosecute man in the
courts, and make his case stand, un-
less the wife of the accused brings
the suit, or at least consents to it
being brought. Another thing: The
wife might bring suit and convict the
husband, and unless he was sent to
the penitentiary, he could not be re-
moved from office, if he should be in
office at the time, though that office
