Drove Horse to Death.

Sheriff Mizener and DR.. Swezey
were called out on the road between
here and Ossian last Friday after
noon, the neighbors believing they
had found q dead man lying in the
road. Investigation proved that it
was John Limbeck, who was badly in
toxIcated. He had secured q livery
horse of Jim Long at Ossian and
started for Decorah, driving the horse
so fast that it dropped dead, and then
laid down beside the road in drunk
en- stupor. The neighbors thought he
was suffering with sunstroke or had
been hurt in a runaway, and called
out the doctor and sheriff, who finally
succeeded in awakening him and took
him to the home of relative. Some
thing ought to be done to prevent a
recurrence of such an act.

The young ladv of his choice is pos
sessed of many of the charming graces
which combine in making women low
able. She has gained wide acqualn-
tance during residence of several
years here, and is held in universal
esteem by all who knew her. A host
of friends join us in extending to
them congratulations and wishing
them long and happy welded life.

Hicks Crop Predictions.

Perhaps no weather prophet has
come nearer to ''hitting the mark"
the past two or three years than Rev.
Irl Hicks. of st. Louis. The follow
ing predictions as to the crop outlook
will therefore be of interest:
"As to the general outlook. for July,
we do not forecast superabundance
Of rainfall. The drouth conditions
which have prevailed in the New Eng
land section and parts of Canada, we
fear will work by long strides into
the interior parts of the continent;
but it will take two TO three years for
it to reach a maximum and run it's
course in this country. Some eastern
to northern parts of our great agricul-
tural regions will feel pinch Of dry
ness in July and August, and most
other sections will have little moist
ure to waste But by wise and prompt
methods of care and culture, we pre-
dict fair seasonable conditions.
We will venture to say that the au-
tuInn will be favorable to late plant
ed crops, and that we believe the
losses of food regions may largely be
made up by all who can possibly re-
plant their lands with corn and other
suitable crops. But it goes without
saying that prompt action, and wise
and vigorous planning and work are
necessary.

The Democratic State Convention.

The death-knell of free silver as a
plank of the Iowa democratic plat
form was sung by vote of 463 to 354
in the democratic state convention at
Des Moines last Wednesday. The
government ownership of railroads
hobby of Judge A. Van Wagenen, of
Sioux City, was also turned down by
vote of 62S to 1879, and as a conse-
quence his name withdrawn as can
didate for the nomination for governor.
The contest over these two planks of
the platform constituted the principal
work of the convention, the following
candidates each being nominated by
acclamation:
For Governor-J. B. Sullivan.
For Lieut. Governor-D. B. Butler.
For Judge of Supreme Court-John
R. Caldwell.
For Supt of Public Instruction-A.
R. McCook.
For Railroad Commissioner-W. S.
Porter.
The preamble to the platform reads:
"We find much in the domestic
affairs of the nation that ought to be
changed. The tariff policy, original
ly adopted for the avowed purpose OF
raising revenue to meet the enormous
burdens of the Civil War, has been
turned to the use of individual and
class interests until it has become the
creator of countless unearned fortunes,
and the shelter of huge combinations
of capital, organized in the form of
trusts, which are strangling competi-
tion in many of our industries. de-
stroying individual effort, crushing
ambition, largely in every line of in
dustry and already acquiring power
which enables them to dictate in their
own interest the price of labor and
raw material and the cost OF transpor
tation of finished products. -
Further the platform reads:
'We are unalterably opposed to the
policy of imperialism by this govern
ment, instituted, fostered and main
tanned by the republican party. And
we demand that our government shall
declare it to be its purpose and with
out delay adopt such measures as shall
give to the people of the Philippine
islanus and Porto Rico their inalien-
able right to government.
"We condemn the republican party
for its financial polices. which would
foist upon the country an unstable
currency, based upon uncertain private
securities. We protest against the
plan presented in the Aldrich bill
recently before the United States
senate, by which the money of the
nation shall be loaned to capitalists
upon the bonds and securities of pri-
vate corporations, as an effort to give
value and stability to watered bonds
and securities of corporations and
trusts, many of which are maintained
monopolies in defiance of law and
public sentiment.
"We insist tnat the integrity of the
money of the nation be guarded with
jealous care and demand that it shall
be sufficient in volume to meet the
needs of the business interests Of the
country, and that it shall be safe
guarded by careful legislation so as to
prevent the gamblers of Wall street
from cornering the money market.
thus infiicting untold injury upon the
smaller business men, the. farmers and
the laborers of the land"

That Farm Mortgage.

The mortgage is self-supporting
institution. 1t always holds its own.
1t calls fer just as many dollars
when grain is cheap as when grain is
dear. 1t is not affected by the
drouth. 1t is not drowned out by the
heavy rains. 1t never winter kills.
Late springs and early frosts never
trouble it. Potato bugs do not dis
turb it. Moth and rust do not des-
troy it. 1t grows nights, Sundays,
rainy days and even holidays. Ia
brings a sure crop every year, and
sometimes twice year. 1t produces
cash every time. 1t does not have to
wait for the. market to advance. IL
is not subject to speculations of the
bulls and bears on the board of trade
1t is a load that gals, frets and
chafes. 1t is burden that the farm
er cannot shake off. 1t is with him
morning, noon and night. 1t eats
with him at the table. 1t gets under
his pillow when he sleeps. 1t rides
upOh cIiOuiuCIo uuilhS WIG uoy~
1t consumes his grain crop. 1t devours
his cattle. 1t selects the finest horses
and the fattest steers. It lives upon
the first fruit of the season. 1t stalks
into the dairy where the busy house,
wife tolls day after day and month
after month and takes the incest
cheese and choicest butter. 1t shares
the children's bread and robs them Of
their clothes. 1t stoops the toiler s
back with it's remorseless burden Of
care. 1t hardens his hands, benumbs
his intellect, prematurely whitens
his locks and often-times sends him
and his good wife over the hills to
the poorhouse. 1t is the inexorable
and exacting taskmaster. Its whip is
as merciless and cruel as the lash Of
the slavedriver. 1t is a menace to
liberty, a hindrance to progress,
curse to the world -Ringwood o. 7.

OBITUARY

On Tuesday afternoon, June %, the
death angel entered the home of Mr..
John Bender, southeast of Burr Oak
and took the mother. leaving the hus-
band and three boys to mourn the loss
of kind loving wife and mother.
Ida Katie Albers was born Dec. IL,
1868, in Winnesheik county, Iowa, and
June 8, 1892, she married Mr.. John
Bender. Three sons were born to them.
She was a true, dutiful wife ana
mother and they had very nice home
with all modern comforts. Mrs. Ben
der had suffered great deal, having
undergone two operations in the hos
pital, but since last fall, when she
had undergone the last operation she
had felt quite we'll, until about three
weeks ago she took sick with what
sho thought was light attack Of la
grippe but it soon turned into typhoid
pneumonia and in spite of all medical
skill and good nursing she could not
survive. She leaves besides her hus-
band and three sons, father, mother,
six brothers, three sisters and large
circle of friends and relatives to
mourn her untimely death. She was
thirty -four years, six months and
twelve days old.
Funeral services were conducted by
Rev. W. V. Schlung and her remains
were laid to rest in the Canoe cemetery
of the German NJ E. church last Fri
day, June Goth.

The Outlook last week in discussing
the post office scandals gave nearly q
page to the defense of James T.
Metcalf, who was last week removed
from the head of the money order de-
partment and whose case is a leading
topic in this section Of Iowa because
he was appointed from this district
and was for years we'll known editor
Of Lansing. It is conceded by nearly
all that the Postmaster General acted
hastily in removing Mr.. Metcalf and
that the latter is entitled to more
thorough hearing. So far the investi-
cation into the matter of the RESPONSE
bility of Hermann, the lowest bidder
in the printing contract, aftrms Mr..
Metcalf's Judgment that he was not a
responsible bidder, having no plant
and no available money to build one.
1t is said that a concern which has
been manufacturing the paper for the
contracts and which had been recently
turned down by the firm which has
had the printing for many years, is
backing Hermann in order TO get
even. 1t is the hope of the many
friends of Mr.. Metcalf in this section,
his old home, that his course may be
proven the right one and that his
office may be restored to him.

The State University recently gave
a degree to young negro and the
record he has made while in the uni
versity would be decided credit to
any white student. When he landed
IN Iowa City to begin his course he
had just one dollar above what was
required to pay his tuition and buy
his books. He worked in hotel to
pay his expenses and vacations worked
in the coal.mines near Ottumwa. He
will return to the university and take
medical course and intends to prac-
tice among his own people. He is the
