Yellowstone National Park.

.The Yellowstone Park IS something
absolutely unique in this world, as far
as l know. Nowhere else in any civil
tied country is there to be found such
a tract of veritable wonderland. made
accessible to all visitors, where at the
same time not only the scenery of the
wilderness, but the wild creatures of
the park are scrupulously preserved"
President Roosevelt.
This delightful spot IS more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than by
any other line. The stage ride from
Monida. by the splendid Concord
coaches of the Monica & Yellowstone
Stage Company, is thru scenery hardly

From the present indications Mar
last week of October, be treated TO two
big days of Teasing. On the first date,
Wednesday, October %. viii be the
business mems feast of OK meat and
other good things. the fall barbecue,
and on the same date democratic
speakers VIII hold sway. ON Thurs

of oratory. Both addresses on the
29th will be at the 0deon, occupying
the afternoon and evening.
1t is to he regretted that the date OF
the barbecue and the addresses OF both
political parties could not have been
arranged for the same day This has
been impossible so far, and no one is
to be blamed. County Chairman Meeker
was in Des Moines Monday. and In
long conference with A. f. Dawson.

out for October IS. This date was not
available. and he was told that Il must
be October go or not at all. Every
effort to secure Governor Cummins has
failed as his excellency already, has more
dates that he can fill. An effort was
made even after the 10Th was decided
upon TO secure Cousins for the 18th.
telegram from Mr.. Dawson this at
ternoon, after Cousins had been seen.
says 1t will be impossible to change
the date. Altho this may seem final,
a strenuous effort will be made by the
republicans OF this city to have the
date changed to the 2Sth.
Jerry Sullivan, the democratic can
didate for governor, has been secured
by Chairman Henry for that date. The
original date was the 9th. but this
was changed on the request OF the
business men. Chairman Henry VINO
will go to Waterloo Wednesday, Will
see Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago.
and an effort will be made to secure him
for the same date. Should this tall,
some other democratic orator. OF ma
tional reputation, will be secured.
