CIRCULATE
PEACE OR WAR in SOUTH AFRICA

The British government has declin-
ed to consider the peace proposals Of
fered by Holland,in behalf of the South
< African republics. 1t is not known
what the purport OF these proposals
may have been but the English gov
eminent in any event refuses to ac-
cept them inasmuch as they emanate
from Beers in Holland, rather than in
the theatre of war. The British gov
eminent takes the position that the
African republican armies in the field
have eminent jurisdiction over the
questions of peace or war and this is
no doubt a correct position. Steyn
De Wet and Schvalkburger are in COM
mand of the Boer situation. They
alone are able to determine the
strength of Boer resistance and to
them alone the English look for peace
proposals that could be carried out if
& entered into. This leaves questions OF
peace as it was before the Holland in
tervention.

At 1880 o'clock this morning &C.
CURED the death Of James S. Cook, at
the residence of his son, ALI q. Cook,
423 East Fourth street. Death was
caused by pneumonia. Mr.. Cook had
reached the age of "a years, 5 months
and 81 days, and was the oldest ini-
tiated Odd Fellow in Iowa, being
member of Washington lodge No. !, of
Burlington.
James S. Cook was born at Dawlise,
Devonshire, England, August 16, 1877.
In lS41 he was united in marriage to
Miss Mary Ann Gardiner Of Kingston,
Surrey on the Thames. Mrs. Cook
passed away in April, 1897, and her re-
mains are inferred at Burlington.
where the family resided for many
years.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cook came to Buraing-
ton in 1S45, and the former resided
there until nine months ago. when he
removed to Ottumwa, and has since
that time been making his home with
his son, A. G. Cook, who resides on
East Fourth street. Although not ex-
tensively known in Ottumwa he had
countless sincere friends in Burlington
who will regret very deeply to hear of
his death. He leaves three sons, A. s.
Cook, of Burlington. H. J. and A. q.

The last train prior to this numbered

The Iowa house committee on public
health has recommended for passage
the Buchanan BILL prohibiting the sale
of cocaine except on the prescription
of physician. Mr.. Buchanan as a
citizen of Ottumwa, is well aware of
the necessity for such a law. Cocaine
is drug most destructive in it's eff
fects 1t crazes the person who is I'M
der its influence and leads them to
commit crimes that they would not
think of doing when in normal
state. 1t is worse than whisky or beer
in many respects; it can be taken Sec
reilly and does not give forth an odor
on the breath, but it is far more
seductive than any alcoholic stimu-
liant. 1t demoralizes and degrades the
habitual user of it to degree that is
brutal. The victim of the habit will
do almost anything in order to secure
money to buy the drug. Mr.. Buchan-
ans bill is humane and enlightened
and it ought to pass both houses
speedily.

There are 325,OOO acres of public
land, subject to entry, in the Spring
field, Mo-, district. The fees for entry
are: 100 acres, $14; 12O acres, s13;
80 acres, 81; 40 acres, Sc. All such
vacant lands are subject to a cash en-
try at $1.25 an acre. Some of these
lands can be made valuable by. cult
walton. They are as good, if not bet
ter, than the Indian Territory lands
that the people went wild over during
the past summer. The Missouri lands
are good for fruit, especially peaches
and apples. A poor man in the older
states has small chance Of securing a
piece of land, but he can get small
stock or large fruit farm for almost
nothing in certain parts of Missouri
and Arkansas.
