Britt's Lecture Course.

Special to Times Republlcan.
Britt, April 1.-THE fifth and clos
ing number of the Britt Lecture Course
was rendered last night by Col. H. j.
w. Ham, of Georgia, who talked to a
crowded house. 1t was the colonel's
first appearance at Britt, and he treated
the audience to lecture entirely diff
ferent from anything given before at
this place. His subject was, The
Snollygoster in Politics." which proved
highly entertaining. His many witty
and laughable jokes kept the audience
bubbling with mirth for two hours.
The course this year has proved a
great success, and will be continued
next year.

Announcement of A. w. Smith
For Sheriff In Hardin
County Causes Surprise
LEGAL QUESTION is RAISED
Smith, it Is Claimed, Will Not Be Le-
gal Resident of the County at Time
of Nomination Primary-Purpose
and Effect of His Candidacy
Discussed.
Special to Times-Republican.

Eldora, April 1.-THE announce
ment of A. w. Smith as candidate for
sheriff appears in several of the papers
in the county this week and is the cause
of many conjectures and no little talk.
On every hand are heard the inquiries:
What do you think of Smith coming
out for sheriff ?" What Kind of deaf
is UP now?" Where does he get his
backing?' who got him out?"
An interesting legal question also
comes up. Last summer Mr.. Smith sold
his home here and in November moved
to Belle Plaine, where he engaged in
the bowling alley business and is still
so engaged. Now he comes back here
and announces himself candidate for
sheriff before the republican primaries
to be held here on June q. He Will not
be resident of this county for sixty
days from now to June g. as the law re-
quires before he has right to vote.
1t is the belief of many that Mr.. Smith
is brought out in the interest of dark
horse or one seeking to aid one of the
two candidates now in the field, both
of whom are representative men of the
county, viz: Thomas Walsh, of Iowa
Falls. and Thomas Scur,y, of this city.
1t is, however, believed that the cam
didacy of Mr.. Smith will not materially
affect the strength OF either Mr.. Walsh
or Mr.. Scurry, as both have been active
candidates for several weeks and have
the lines we'll drawn and the fences we'll
up. and the hardness OF Mr.. Smith in
coming out as well as the legal ques-
ton as to his residence will constitute
q serious handicap to him, and always
the bugbear of some kind of deal"
initiates against the twelfth hour man.

WIDE TIRE THE
1t Act. as n Roller on a Dirt Road
and Makes Hauling Of Heavy
Loads Easy.

AS ! am a good-road lover, I wish to
give my opinion on how 10 make a road
hard and solid so that it will carry the
heavy loads better than most roads
generally do.
In my own experience years ago, I
owned only one two-inch tire wagon.
Since then I made a three-inch wagon
out of old wheels by cutting il down
a little lower and had the blacksmith
put on three-inch tires, one-half inch
thick.
The wonderful effect this has in i'm
proving an otherwise worthless farm
convenience no one knows unless he
has tried it. The wagon now is as
good as a new one, and it does not
cut down as before.
Farmers should be sure to order
wide tires when new wheels are need
ed on old wagons. A three-inch tire
will do. but a four-inch is still better,
MS Il acts as a roller on the road. and
when once packed the draft is much
lighter. This is my experience.-H

PRICE Yield In Late Trading--A weak
>gE$:&$I#&E + f..
= Closing.

New York, Nov. 5.-The persistent
weakness of the United States Steel Sc
curities to-day was a weight upon the
whole stock market. The repressive
effect was evident when the stocks of
both classes and the second bonds all
opened at lower prices than ever be-
fore. The influence was resisted for
time, except for a few stocks affiliated
with the iron and steel trade. During
the forenoon the railroad stocks held
above last nights level. Dividends
came off a number of important stocks
this morning and the appearance of
cheapness thus produced perhaps en-
couraged some bidding up. Both Penn
sylvania and Atchison were in this
class. Alnalgamated Copper also Offer
ed some resistance in the early part Of
the day, apparently on account of the
putting forward of the court calendar
Of the litigation in Montana. The whole
market yielded, however, in the late
dealing and the closing was weak, with
many of the standard railroad stocks a
point or more below last night. The in
dustrials and specialties showed even
wider declines.
In the United States Steel stocks in
the late dealings the price of the COM
mon touched 1873, of the preferred 54Ss
and of the second bonds 66M. These
compare with last nights prices of 1871
for the common, 575s for the preferred
and 67B for the second bonds. The
slump In these securities, after the long
continued decline which they have al
ready undergone, let loose a flood of
runors and conjectures. The convic-
ton was very general in the street that
the situation in the iron and steel trade
was very discouraging, and that condi-
tons were much upset. Sales were
made in the outside market of the next
dividend on United States Steel COM
mon at one-quarter of one per cent. on
several thousand shares. Reports of
cuts in steel products were very contra
dictory, but the decision to make a.
price of 1913 ton for steel billets, COM
pared with the recent price Of $27, was
known on authority. There were ru-
mors, In addition, of coming cuts in
steel rails and in other lines of finished
