The desperate efforts made by
some of the state papers to display
their news is almost pitiful to con-
template. The Iowa City Republican
the other day used six column four
story head line to tell of an explosion
some where in Indiana that killed four
men, while in another part Of the pa
per, in a modest one column head was
described wreck that killed twenty
people. Even the Register and Lead
err of Des Moines is going to seed on
the head line business. Most Of it is
a delusion and a snare, and cheapens
the publication. We never pick up a
Sioux City Journal or Council Bluffs
Nonpareil-neither of which allow the
Chicago American tactics to be used
but that we feel a relief akin to that
of getting fresh breath of air after
being tied up in close and over heat
ed room.

The editor OF the Brighton Enter
prise admits that he is past fifty years
old and has spent nearly half of his
life editing a paper in Brighton. Two
years were spent in publishing a re-
form paper bent on remodeling the
world to suit his own ideas, and 1T
failed as it deserved. The other 81
years were spent in publishing local
newspaper which recognized the fact
that the world was, after all, a better
job than if we had made it ourselves,
and simply called attention by example
and precept to the fact that there is a
Light that guides every man in safety
through this life if he will but follow
it. That the trouble that we see in
the world it not because of anything
organically wrong with it, but because
men refuse to follow this Light and
stumble along and fall into the dark
ness.

it not be better to take the $500 per

MORE .PULPITs THAN PASTORS

The complaint is made by nearly
every religious body in this country
that it has more churches than or
dained men. That pulpits multiply
while pastors decrease. Recent sta
tistics show that ministers of all de-
nominations number 147,113 and in
crease slowly On the other hand
the churches number 1916 and in
crease rapidly.
In all $3.50, 100000 are spent every
year in the maintenance of churches.
Why,in view Of this large sum, is the
supply of pastors noticeably declin-
ing? One authority furnishes the
answer in part by saying that notwith-
standing the large amount in the ag-
gregate expended for ministerial sup
port, many preachers are living on
starvation salaries of $500 and $500 a
year. There is certainly no financial
inducement in such remuneration for
men to enter the ministry. But edu-
Gated and talented men, as rule, are
assured better reward, and besides
''the money there is in it" is not sup
posed to figure TO any considerable ex-
tent in determining choice of the min
istry for a life work. Men who en-
gage in preaching the gospel are cred
tied with better motives than desire
for worldly gain. So there must be
something besides starvation salaries
that interferes with sufficient supply
of ministers. What is it? inquiries the
Keokuk Gate-City. Are people gen.
orally less interested in religious mat
tiers than formerly, or is it thought
there is no longer the imperative ne
cessity there was once thought to be
for religious teaching? The situation
opens up wide field for speculation,
profitable or otherwise.

A farmer sold load of wood in
Montezuma the other day for SO says
the Republican. There was about a
half cord of it, sawed into stove

formerly sold for $1.75, but last whit

STRANGE CATTLE DISEASE.

Ten different herds of cattle in Ring
gold and adjoining counties have been
attacked with a new disease which Is
proving one of lie most serious that
has ever been noted in Iowa. Local
veterinaries find that the trouble
much resembles nodular disease in
sheep, being caused by worms that
hatch out in the intestines and burrow
into the walls. During the burrowing
process the animals suffer greatly.
They either die in a short time or else
they eat ravenously, but grow slowly
poorer and weaker until they are I'M
able to get up. The malady more Of
ten attacks calves and yearlings than
other cattle, and is more severe in the
younger animals. The animals that
have recovered have shown no ability
so far to resume growing or fattening.
No medicine so far used has had any
effect in curing, although specimens Of
the worms and full particulars have
been sent to the state experiment sta
ton at Ames. The station replied that
the communication from here was the
first information they had that such
disease existed in the state. 1t is sup
posed that the egg from which the
worm is Matched is laid on the grass in
the fall, so as a preventive some
stock owners are keeping their cattle
off of pasture and second crop
hay. Over twenty-five cattle have
died in the vicinity.

PAVING ASSESSMENTS.

A federal court decision which has
Just been handed down in Daven-
port case is important to every city In
the state and means that Davenport
will undoubtedly become about $4,000
richer by the collection of paving
assessment, which has been fought In
the court since 1896. The decision is
in the famous McClelland paving case
of the city of Davenport VS.. VIM. Rus
sell Allen and others. The decision
rendered sustains the demurrer of the
plaintiff, which means that the city
can recover for the reasonable value
of the labor and the cost of the mater
ial used in the construction of the
pavement. The case involves the
cost of the paving of Eddy street and
the La Claire road in the city in front
o. the Allen property. The original
suit was for $14,675.26,and the amount
with interest accrued, will now be full
ly $4,000. When the paving was COM
pleted in 1896 the owners of the Allen
property refused to pay for it on the
ground that the city could not collect
the assessment taxed. The matter
was taken into the district court by
the Aliens, who secured decision and
an injunction preventing the city from
the amount. In the supreme
court the decision of the lower court
was affirmed. Then the matter was
taken by the city to the federal court,
making a new case out of 1t. and ask

LACEY sTUMPED HIM.

In his Washington correspondence
in the Chicago Record Herald Of Sat
urday, William E. Curtis writes:
Representative Lacey Of Iowa has run
up against the real thing. The other
day he met New England congress-
man, who, like himself, is very earnest
in favor OF a revision of the tariff, and
when they began to exchange ideas,
the difficulties in the way of a satisfac-
tory solution of the problem began to
loom up. When the New England man
was asked what articles he would put
on the free list, he answered promptly,
hides"
"That would never 40 in the world"
replied Mr.. Lacey. THE cattle men
out west get little enough profit as it
is, and would never consent to the free
entry Of hides from South America,
Australia and other cattle countries. "
But what would you suggest" ask
ed the New England man.
Boots and Shoes" said Mr.. Lacey,
land wooden clothing. Ii there is one
thing among all the merchandise con-
sumed by our people that ought to
come in free it is that they wear. Ev-
erybody, no matter how poor or how
small his income, has got to buy boots
and shoes and clothing, and the argu-
ments in favor of putting them on the
free list ought to appeal more strongly
to the country at large than any
other"
Heavens and EARTH" answered the
New England man, "our people would
never consent to that. They think
that the duties on boots and shoes and
wooden goods are toosmall as it is. You
will have to think up something else"
But, after long exchange of opin-
ions the only articles that the men
from Iowa and New England could
agree upon were those produced ex-
clusively in other sections of the coun-
try,

departed so far from the usual prac-

lowing eulogy of the dead from the
pen of Richard Watson Glider:
Mourn for his death but for his life re-
joice,
Who was the city's heart, the city's
voice:
Dauntless in youth, impetuous in age,
Keen In debate, in civic counsel sage:
Talents ana wealth 10 MIN were but a
trust
To lift his hapless brother from the
dust.
Because he followed truth he led all
mem
Through years and virtues the great
citizen.
BY being great he made the city
great
Serving the city, he upheld the state.
So shall the city win purer fame
Led by the living splendor OF his name
The tribute was fine one in itself
and it was accentuated by interrupting
the beautiful and impressive burial
service of the Episcopal church to
read it to the assembled multitude.
