EDITOR VISITS oTTuMWA.
Parnell Newspaper Mans Impressions
of This City.

q. 10 5.sI ,
The editor of the Iowa County (Par-
nell) Advertiser spent a day in Ottum-
wa recently and in last weeks issue of
his paper ssxs:''
Last Saturday the writer took a
day off and went down to Ottumwa
1t was not as much of business trip
as it was for pleasure, and much to
our satisfaction we appreciated our
trip very much, as everyone knows it
is little money that newspaper man
has to spend. and where to spend it
to get the best for it was the great
est trouble, we were at liberty to take
in the sights of the city, and visit
places of interest Since it was Satur-
day and a great many of the factories
were not in operation We were at a
floss of seeing what we might have
seen any other day. But however, we
went around and saw where some of
the business was done and where this
thriving city got and manufactured a
good deal of the goods it was putting
on the market.
In going our rounds there was nc
| place we got the courteous treatment
or where we enjoyed our visit better
! than at ST. Josephs academy. We
owe a debt of much thanks to Mother
| Joseph for her courteous treatment
and for the trouble and pains she had
taken in showing us through hel
| school and boarding department, which
I is all in one building, except the school
/ for the boys, and that not more thar
block away from the sisters school
We were delighted to find school or.
ganized under such perfect plans ant
one that is so well equipped for the
work to be done. The school is furnish
ed with everything and well supplied
with competent teachers to carry ou
the great work which is expected tt
be done in the school room. We were
informed that the attendance was 6
great deal larger this year than be-
fore, and to supply the pupils with
suitable study and recitation rooms
they put seats in their assembly
room.
We also had the pleasure of meet
| ing all the pupils from here who are
attending the school and for the bene
I fit of their friends, we can say thai
they are very comfortably located ant
are getting along nicely"

Mt Pleasant Subscribes 100000
Toward Securing College.
THREE CITIZENS WILL GIVE MUCH
Chances Are That Mt. Pleasant viii
Soon Be the Home of Both Method
list and Presbyterian Educational
Observation-Disclosures Loses.

1t is evident that Ottumwa stands
but little or no chance of securing
Parsons college even though it was the
first city to begin figuring on bringing
about the removal of the institution
from Fairfield. However, at Mount
Pleasant where there is already one
college, the energetic citizens have,
it seems. raised or agreed to raise,
100000 to support the college if re-
moved to that place This amount
has been subscribed, it is said, by three
citizens, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that several thousand dollars
more will be obtainable there since
these three have shown their LIBERAL
ity TO such marked degree.
Mt. Pleasant Wants 1t.
The Mt. Pleasant News reioices over
the fact that money has been subscrib.
ed so readily and publishes an article
regarding Mt. Peasants chances of
getting the college, as follows:
1t will be a surprise to most of our
citizens to know that Mt. Pleasant
stands a good show of securing Par
sons college, of Fairfield, to locate
here One citizen of the city has Of
fered to give $4,000, another 10000
and still another $4,000, if the college
is removed from Fairfield to this city
This is total of 100000, of which the
college is assured if the move is made,
and according to one of the trustees
of the Parsons school, is such tempt
/ ing offer that it would occasion no sur
prise if the school comes here. The
1 burning of the Parsons building lately
has been heavy loss to the school
! and an effort is being made to raise
$125,000 to rebuild and put in addition
al buildings. Different towns want The
4 location, but none have made sucf
splendid offers as have these liberia
citizens of Mt. Pleasant, and it look:
now like we will get it. Bring it on.

Grievances.

'Under the law, organizations hav-
ing grievances against other organlza-
lions are required to meet by represen-
tation for the purpose OF adjusting the
question in dispute before the same
can be considered by the convention.
A grievance which has already been
considered by a previous convention
can not be taken up by the forthcom-
ing convention, unless three years
have elapsed from the time OF the de-
cision being rendered provided, how
ever, that the organization feeling ag-
| grieved has obtained the consent of
the executive council to bring again
the subject-matter to the attention of
the convention.
Executive Council Meeting.
"At the last convention the members
of the executive council were so over
questions of jurisdiction, grievances,
adjustments, and innumerable other
matters, that the members close at
tention to business OF the convention
proper was interfered with. The exc
cutive council has therefore decided to
meet at the headquarters OF the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, October 6
and several days after, and there and
then hear all authorized parties in in
| terest upon any matter properly COM
ing within the province OF the eXecu-
! tive council to consider. Parties de-
string to appear before the executive
council at this meeting, on any matter
in which there is controversy, must
notify the President of the American
4 Federation of Labor at least three
days in advance of the meeting, so that
the other parties to the dispute may
be notified.
THE executive council may not hold
any meeting at New Orleans except tc
consider matters referred to it by the
convention.

Small Dealers Frozen Out.

"The figures of the census show that
neither in the mercantile nor manu-
featuring world has the small dealer
who owns his business and gives it his
personal attention anything to fear in
competition with the overgrown and
top-heavy investments of capital that
surround him.
"There is no room in this discussion
for vain EXPLANATIONS of alarm and de-
spair. Up to this time the tariff policy
to which we owe prosperous condi-
tions surrounding us, has been the
ally of independent capital in it's Crap
pie with the modern trust system, but
if the day should ever come when the
productive energies of the American
people are impotent in the presence of
monopoly, protection which for more
than a generation of our laws have
given to all our industries alike, is not
likely to remain to enrich such a con-
spiracy of avarice and greed"
Dolliver closed with tribute to
President Roosevelt.
