An HI-AdViSed Movement

The attempt to make President Mel Kinley .
birthday legal holiday is not well advised.
A good though not g,s,t citizen; great
though not q remarkable President, the
country does well to honor the memory and
deplore the untimely death Of William Nc
Kinley. The attempt, however, to rank
him with Washington and Lincoln in eta
teamanship and achievement is not sustained
by history hense it is illadvised. Besides,
in the matter OF national holidays, we alrea.
dy have enough. Irhe commercial and
industrial life Of the ..nation can easily be
oyertaxed in this direction, and il would
seem that the limit of economic prudence
has already been reached. We have always
elevated our great men on the basis Of their
misfortunes.

Prospective Raid On The Treasury

The river and harbor bill OF the present
session is to be the biggest ever, postoffice
buildings are to be scattered over the land
with unprecedented liberality, deserts will
be made to bloom by the aid Of government
irrigation. and not a single tax will be re-
duced until the swag is all appropriated
Such is the programme which is said to be
taking shape in the minds Of the legislators
and such programme may always be safely
predicted when brimming treasury Ii
close by with the manifold temptations thai
it suggests.

FAVOR SUBMARINE BOATS.
Naval Omcers Coming to See the
Value of the Tiny Boats In
Naval Combats.

1t was thought in the coming naval
evolutions that the superiority of
American submarine boats over the
French type would be demonstrated,
but owing to the recent accident to
the Holland, which prevents her from
taking part in the maneuvers, such
test will not take place. Naval officers
were greatly interested in the sham
battle recently off Hyers on the
French Mediterranean coast, when
the submarine boats Zede and Gym
note attacked the fleet representing
the enemy. Travelling ten feet below
the surface they "torpedoed" three OF
the battleships, the crews of which
were unaware of their presence until
the damage was done. This feat, IN
the opinion of naval experts favoriny
submarines, demonstrates the impor-
lance of considering them as valuable
adjuncts to the sea power of any ma
ton. France, the first country TIC
maintain this stand, leads the nayies
of the world in the number of her sub
marine boats. England has now a
small number of submarines in COM
mission, with ten additional ones in
course of construction, all of the
American type. Such distinguished
men in the American navy as Admiral
Dewey, Capt. Wainwright and Capt.
Sigsbee highly approve of submarine
boats for harbor defense.

BALLOON LEADS TO WEDDING.
Letter Tied to ICY Airship Brings
to q Maryland Woman
Husband.

A romance in Dorchester county,
Maryland, in which Miss Mamie Ter
cross and Ralph Messick figured, is
the talk of the day. On the Fourth
of July Miss Zercross sent up a fish
shaped toy balloon with photo
graph and letter attached. She
watched it as it scared skyward, and
when it was lost from view she
thought no more of it. After few
days she received letter from Mes
sic, dated Ocean City, Md, many
miles away.
Messick had found the balloon
along the bay, with the young lady's
note and photograph attached. He
asked permission to correspond. 1t
was granted, and soon afterward he
forwarded his own picture. Miss
Zercross was favorably impressed
A little later he arrived at Cam
bridge and Miss Zercross met him at
the station. He was driven to her
handsome home and after few days
courtship they were married. The
couple are enjoying their honey
moon at the Catskills. Messick is 8
grain dealer. Miss Zercross ha.
passed 90 summers, while Mr.. Mes
sick is &c.

Several of the leading republicans
have written us time and again say
ing that they would be willing to do
nate $1,000 to the man who can furnish
the evidence that G. n. Haugen ever
made speech on the olemargarine
bill attributed to him. If a man has
done so little in the two terms that
he has been there that he has to hunt
so fine for something that he has
done that it is necessary to go into the
imaginaries and send out circulars of
dreams and when he comes to wake
up he finds that his speech in congress
was merely dream, how great the
disappointment is to man while sit
ting & lying down when he imagines
he is the possessor Of millions and
awakens to the fact that it is only a
dream. Mason City Times-Herald.

If any voter in the Fourth district
doubts but what Col. A. L. Sortor has
been loyal to the old soldier from boy
hood up let him go to Iowa City where
he was born and raised, and then come
to Mason City, where he has spent the
balance of his time, and ask any man.
Not a man living in either city can
say but what he has always been a
patriotic and true friend to the old
soldiers. Now can you vote for man
who has never had the disposition to
to favor the old veteran? Can any
good loyal citizen, no matter what his
politics may be, do otherwise than
cast his vote for Col. A. T.. Sortor,

When the republicans tell you that
their party proposes to control the
trusts remind them of the fact that
their party has had absolute control
of the government machine for six
years, and that the only time they
have made any pretense ntrolling
them was when they knew that they
couldn't pass bill just at the end of
the session of congress and before a
campaign and inquire of them how it
happened that not a word was said
about controlling them last winter,
while just as soon as congress adjourn
ed the president began his strenuous
bluff against them.-Clinton Adver-

The people are thinking. Several
republicans have asked US tie ques-
ton: I" Why did not the the republi-
can committee not have Congressman
Haugen address thespeople at Elkader,
MEG regor and other towns in the coun-
ty?' But we don't know. We give
it up. Perhaps the "ring" is able to
inform US. 1t does seem funny to the
people to send member of congress
out into the country to address half a
hundred persons or less. Was the
"ring" afraid that Capt. Sortor would
happen around if they billed Mr..
Haugen for speech in some town.

Rockford, Ia. April 6, 1900.
At regular called NEE ting of said
Post held on above date the following
resolutions were presented and on mo-
tion unanimously adopted, to-wit;
Whereas, the Hon. u. N. Haugen,
Member of Congress from the Fourth
Congressional district Of Iowa has,.
entirely ignored the soldiers in his
recommendation for postmaster at
Rockford, Iowa, and in SO doing has
entirely disregarded the wishes OF the
G. A. r. Post at Rockford, Iowa, and
utterly ignored the candidates for said
ONCE who have served their country
in the late Civil war, and in recon-
mending candidate for said position
has yielded to the wishes of persons
the two or three local leaders OF whom
were prostituting politics to their
business ends and were urging the
recommendation with mercenary
motive and who have never served
their country as soldiers and who, so
far as shown, have not nor never had
a relative who served in that capacity.
And whereas the Veteran candi-
dates for said Office were as fully and
as strongly endorsed by its patrons
here and were az we'll qualified in ey'
cry respect for the position for post
master as the party recommended 10y
the Hon. G.. N. Haugen, and in law
and justice, all other things being
equal, the person who served his coun.
try at her call in time of need should
have the preference for such offices.
Therefore, be it resolved that we,
Charles ]. Pixley Post No. 377 Of the
G. A. r. criticise the judgment of
Hon, G.. N. Haugen and censure him
for the above mentioned recommen-
dalton and protest against the ap-
pointment of the candidate recon-
mended by him.
Aud, be. it further resolved that
these in our opinion, Hon. 6. N. Hau
gen is not entitled to the support O
the members of the G.. a. R. and 9th
er electors of the Fourth Congress
sional district of Iowa in the even
that he is candidate for renomfna
tion to the Office of Congressman.
And, be it further resolved tina
these resolutions be entered upon the
records of our Post and that copies bt
sent to Hon. G. N. Haugen, Congress
man, and to Hon. John FL. Gear ant
Hon. William B. Allison, members O.

And be it further resolved that, il
the event of this protest being I'm
needed, these resolu tions be publish
ed in the newspapers in Rockford
Iowa, and that a copy thereof be sen
to each g. A. r. Post in the Fourth
Congressional district in the state Of
Iowa and that each Of said Posts b,
authorized and requested to publish
the same in some newspaper in the
