Cousins and poIIiver

The Des Moines Capital says that
Cousins is an orator without peer.
Many who have heard him will agree
to that statement. Cousins is slow
and has drawling way about him
that would make stranger guess
that he could not make speech. But
when he gets in motion and the gray
matter gets to working right an aud.
fence will sit enthralled. The COus.
ms way is all his own. He is not an
imitator and he is free from some OF
those mannerisms, that bother Mr..
Dolliver until You get used to him.
But there is but one Dolliver, great
orator and man of splendid brain.
Dolliver has n wider fame than Cous.
ms and is more in demand but that is
the result of his having been longer
in public life, No other state in this
Union has two orators in the same
political party who can in any way
compare with them. Dallas County

The Study Of Science.

young men need not be discourage
ed and believe that all the worlds have
been discovered" said J. X. Sage,
director of the Iowa weather and crop
service bureau, yesterday afternoon.
There is great field in which men
may work. Scientists, for instance,
have found they are but at the A B G.
of their labors. The more they learn
and discover, the greater do they APP
preciate the ignorance of man. The
study of science humilitates man, for
it shows him how insignificant his hu-
man knowledge is. Great discoveries
are being made daily and new fields
are being opened for investigation. |
believe there are grand opportunities
ahead for young men in the scientific
and the inventive world. They need
worry little about everything being
discovered. Life is too short. ! wish
were young again and just beginning
with the present age to search in the
scientific field. | see great possicili-
ties and prospects of good results.
Scientists are coming more to
agree on the theory that there is one
principal force and that all others are
but different forms. That one force is,
of course, the electromagnetic. The
rays OF the sun are claimed to be
electromagnetic, and on this point |
believe all scientists agree This
force is not in itself heat. Heat is
caused ay the resistance of the earth
to this force. Resistance causes heat,
as when a hammer is struck against
something it becomes heated. This is
the reason why the air is hotter near
the earth than higher up. The heat
comes from the earth. II the rays of
the sun were heat in themselves, then
our present winter time would be
warmer than summer, for we are then
nearer the sun. But there is not the
heat then because the earth is in such
a position that the rays do not strike
it directly, but at an angle and are in
measure refracted. Accordingly
there is less resistance and naturally
less heat. There are many complica-
lions in science, but the great princi-
lples are very simple.
There is nothing In the talk that
the water Of the earth is being swal-
lowed up by the assures of the earth
as claimed by Frenchman. Grant
ing the water should run in toward
the center Of the earth, the heat there
would convert it into steam and it
would be forced out somewhere into
the air only to be condensed and con-
verted again into water to fall upon
the earth. The water we have cannot
get aAay from Us. 1t will not go be-
yond the air and .annot be consumed
or destroyed. 1t may be absorbed by
vegetation for brief spell, but it will
! again return to its natural state.
There is no more or no less water now
than there was during the flood in
Noah's time, and it is the same water.
The water you drink today was posi-
bly, used by the Romans or Egyptians
or Chaldeans. 1t is continually
changing its form as is the earth and
everything else. Variation is rule

Tuesday was enacted an event that
will have a place in the worlds record
of great transactions, the sacred col
lege of cardinals chose a pope, Cardi-
nal Sarto, who accepted and assumed
the title of Plus X. The position of
pope is generally considered the most
prominent and commanding in the
world. Its opportunities for influence
both in religion and in government
are far-reaching. The moderation
and wisdom with which the great office
has been administered by the late
illustriOus pontif has increased the
influence of the position. The new
pope is said to be good man, able
and wise, and moderate in his opin-
inns

The executive council has finished
its equalization work. Equalization
of assessments is difficult job. We
are all watchful to see II we are not
assessed too high as compared with
the other fellow. Below we give a

the counties in this vicinity. Auda-
bon county was allowed decrease of

Lacey. II will be some time before the
Sixth district will have another con-

their present member. Major Lacey
neCsived his first nomination for con-
greSs fifteen years sgo this isll and
has since been regularly nominated ct
each subsequent convention, and We
believe everytime by. reclamation.
In that time he was only defeated once
that being in 1890 by Fred White.
There has been talk of opposition to
his denomination at different times be-
fore the convention met. Mai. Lacey
has won place OF high esteem In the
opinion of the people Of Iowa as we'll
as OF his own district.

There is much being said recently
about primary election law for
Iowa. The sentiment as reflected in
the press seems to be favorable to q
law requiring q primary election in
stead of the old caucus and conven-
ton plan. II such law is enacted it
will know no parties and will apply to
the democratic as we'll as to the re-
publican party. In this part of Iowa
the democrats seem to be willing to
get along with the old plan, but the
republicans are largely adopting the
primary plan. Audubon republicans
have just adopted it and will use il
for the first time next year. The
principles OF the primary plan are
most excellent. II the primary is pro.
tected by good rules so each voter can
exercise his choice in the choosing Of
party nominees, It win likely be some
Improvements on the old caucus plan.
Every good party man and every good
citizen will surely favor the change
and hail its coming as an event tend
ing toward the development of better
government.

For week ending Aug. 3, 1903.
The first of the week was dry and
very warm, followed well distributed
and beneficial showers and cooler
weather. The week closed warm and
showery, with some heavy local rains.
There was an average of about four
days OF good harvest weather, which
was we'll improved. Except in por-
tiOns of the northern section the hay
and grain harvest is practically COM
pleted. All reports indicate a very
heavy crop of hay, mostly secured in
good condition. Threshing wheat, oats
and barley is in progress, with some
what variable reports as to the yield.
Generally, however, the output of
spring wheat and oats is reported to
be below the average in amount and
weight Of grain. The copious showers
have been timely and beneficial to the
corn crop, and as a whole it has made
fairly good progress. 1t needs warm
err weather in the future, and is now
in condition to mature with but little
additional moisture. There are num-
erous reports of damage to the potato
crop by rotting and blight There
is no special change in the condition
of the apple crop.

to much because the levies are to be
adjusted to suit. II the assessment is
raised the levy can be lowered and II
the assessment is lowered the levy
must be raised. They surely ought to
be changed as seldom as possible.
The main thing is to get the assess-
ments equitable between different
parts Of the state and between various
classes of property. Since Gov. Cum
Minis has gone in Office the railroad
assessments have been increased from
forty-seven to fifty-six and one-half
million dollars. 1t looks like an
honest effort was made to require the
roads to pay their share of the taxes.

The executive council has lower
ed the state levy from three and one
half to three mills. This was made
possible principally because of the in
crease of assessable values. Land is
assessed several dollars an acre high
erthan it was three or four years ago,
and other property has been increased
in proportion. The raising and low
ering of assessments do not amount

every one who wishes to attend the
