NO DANGER FROM DIES MONIES.
State Board of Health Says Delegates
From Capital City May Come to

Marshaiitown.
At a meeting of the city council as a
board of health Monday evening Mayor
Jones called attention to several pro-
tests from citizens against permitting
a large delegation from Des Moines at
tending the convention of the Patri-
archs Militant, to be held Friday and
Saturday of the present week in this
city. The mayor said he understood a
car load or more of Des Moines Odd
Fellows were coming to the city. and
he wanted the board to consider the
advisability of permitting a crowd from
the capital city, owing to the careless
manner in which the smallpox epidem-
ic has been handled there. DR.. Harris
and Health Physician Nichols ex-
planned to the board that there would
be little danger from this visit, but ad-
vised leaving the question to Secretary
Kennedy, of the state board of health.

expert in diseases of this character.
Therefore Mayor Jones communi-

DR.. Kennedy said there was not the
slightest danger of the contagion being
brought here by the Des Moines peo-
pie: that the situation was we'll in hand
there now, that all those exposed were
Guaranteed, and that Marshalltown
need not have the least fear of the Des
Moines people spreading the disease.
Therefore no action will be taken to
prevent Des Moines sending all the del

One would never suspect from his ap-
pearance that Mr.. Ross is nearly n
years of age. He is wonderfully active
and rarely misses day from his office.
Mr.. Ross is Mason and member of
the First Presbyterian church. He was
sufferer from dyspepsia until he heard
of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. The follow
ing is his opinion OF the remedy which
has done 80 much for him:
For several years, /. Thomas l.. Ross,
also my wife, Lydia L. Ross, both of
Topeka Kas.. suffered with that terrible
malady known as dyspepsia or indiges-
ton.
I'VE commenced to use Kodol Dyspep-
eia Cure on the recommendation of our
Druggist After taking one dose, and in
side of short time, all of those terrible
pains and dyspepsia torments had
PASSED away. My appetite, also my
wife's, came back and our food could be
enjoyed as when we were 81. am now
turning a years of age.
IT have not suffered one day with my
stomach since commenced to use Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure. and I recommend it to
all of my fellow citizens to do you good,
and endorse Kodol Dyspepsia Cure"

st. James Hotel, of Minneapolis, and
two of the best known hotel men OF

their home after few days stay IN

been looking over the Pilgrim Hotel
with a view of buying.
The Messrs. Ames announced to
friend that they had not decided def1n-
itely on what course they would pursue
regarding the deal here. but that the
hotel was not quite as large as they
would like to secure. The Messrs.
Ames' contract with the owners of the
st. James is soon to expire and they
are looking for some other good loca-
ton and hotel of their own.
Mr.. A. A. Moore. president of the
hotel company. was asked this after
noon as to what had been done by the
Ames's about the purchase of the
hotel. Mr.. Moore replied that he was
not aware that there were any nego-
tiations pending for the sale of the
property Other members Of the Pill
grim Hotel Company made the same
reply and it seems that the Messrs.
Ames came here without request from
the present owners.

INVESTIGATING POSTAL AFFAIRS
Inspector Stewart In the City to Deter
mine Needs Of Postal Service.

mine Needs Of Postal Service.
Postoffice Inspector c. e. Stewart, OF
Iowa City. who has succeeded Inspector
w. NJ. Ketcham In this district, arrived
in the city Monday afternoon and re-
manned over today looking into the con-
ditions at the postoface, prior to Offer
ing a recommendation to the depart
ment at Washington that will probably
result in securing additional carrier
help.
Mr. Stewart is thoroughly satisfied
that the carriers here are overworked
and that additional help is needed. He
will undoubtedly recommend the plac-
ing into service of at least one, and per-
haps two, extra carriers. In speaking
of the situation last night he said: THE
fact that Marshalltown is reported SO
small in the last government census re-
port will be the hardest thing to over
come In securing additional help. The
department. when asked to increase
carrier forces, turns to the census re-
port and finds Marshalltown to be city
of 1900 people. 1t then ascertains
that there are seven carriers employed,
and that number is considered suff1-
GENTLY large to accommodate the popu-
lation.
you can readily see how poor CEN
sus has its effect on city, when gov
eminent assistance is wanted In one
way or another. The census report is
considered correct, and final, too, for
that matter, and is the only manner the
government has of making estimates.
However, l am satisfied that you people
need extra help. and also that Marshall
town is a larger city than the census
report shows. have an idea as to the
amount of business done here in the
postoffice, and that Is a good indication
of the size of city. If these carriers
are taking out ninety or 100 pounds of
mail on their trips every day, which Is
entirely too much for any man to carry,
something will have to be done to reme-
dy the conditions"
The weighing of the mails began un-
der Mr.. Stewards direction this morn
Ing and Will be continued for week,
SO that a fair average can be obtained
as to how much is being worked by the
carriers. Mr.. Stewart spent a portion
of the forenoon in going over one or two
of the routes in Marshalltown.
