Get Rightly Graded Diamonds

Those contemplating the purchase of diamonds should know that diff ferent dealers grade stones differ ently. That Is, stone which the dealer buys as commercial white be may sell as pure white" In view of the low prices we make, it is well to state that our stones re- tain the original grading made by the cutters. A commercial white" stone is sold as such. Diamond buy CTS should bear this point in mind In making comparisons of prices. As all our diamonds are bought direct we have no difficulty in selling at 10 to 12 per cent less than regular prices on properly graded stones. F. w. BrOmberg

REGISTRATION LAW
Chairman Spence Calls Attention to
Failure of Many lowans to Vote
Matter Of Great Importance.

Special 10 Times Republican.
Des Moines, Oct. 20.-The attention
of the republican state committee has
been called to the fact that various
ferent cities regarding the registration
laws Chairman Spence has thought
! ii best to make the matter plain, in
| order that there may be no mistake
land that all voters who should regis
ter this year may have the fact brought
to their attention. Registration is re-
auired in all cities of over $500 Voters
who have moved from one precinct to
another since the election last fall, are
required to register in the precinct in
which they now reside. II they fail
ton day. m di not vote
last wear aie also .1iyed 10 register
in order that they may be eligible to
vote this fall. The registration books
are made up from the poll books OF
last year. All who voted last year had
their names entered in the poll book
but those who did not vote We're. of
course. not entered. Therefore In order
to vote this year, they must regis
ter.
This is matter of very great i'm
portance in view of the fact that about
$4,000 voters did not vote last fall.
OF course, only comparatively small
percentage of these live in cities of
over $500. but there is no question
but that several thousand of them do.
These men will not be able to vote this
fall unless they register. Chairman
Spence has thought best TO call gen
eral attention to this matter in order
that there may be no misunderstand-
ing.
In this connection it is interesting
and at the same time alarming TO COM
pare the vote of 1900 with the vote of
the two succeeding years. In 1900, $780,
l67 votes were polled for president in
Iowa In 1901 only 390,59l We're polled
for governor Last year only 395,349
votes We're polled for secretary of state.
These figures show that about 135,00
citizens of Iowa failed to take part
in the election last fall. This Is a
most alarming statement and 1t seems
hard to believe. but nevertheless it is
true These figures may be verified
by consulting the official register and
they should be carefully considered
by every voter. When it is considered
that an immense army of citizens of
Iowa failed to vote last fall. it is easy
TO see how the result of the election
might be changed II all of these voters
who belong TO one political party should
vote this fail and the other remain at
home. OF course this will not be the
case, but If the republican majority is
to be kept up to the standard, every
effort should be made to get out the
fun republican vote this fall and no
republican voter should fail to do his
duty on election day.

Rich Iron Deposits In South
western Part of Iowa
INDIAN TOOLS MADE OF IRON
A Number Of Mounds Were Found,
Many Of Which Had Never Been Mo-
lested-Larse Undressed Pieces of
the Native Metal Unearthed-Fur.
ther Search to Be Made.

Special to Times Republican.
Council Bluffs, Oct. 20.-Near the
foot of the Missouri river bluffs neal
Henton, a small station on the Kansas
City, st. Joseph & Council Bluffs rail-
road about twelve miles south of this
city, some discoveries have recently
been made that lead those who have
investigated to believe that there are
rich iron deposits at some place close
in this part of the state. The dis
covery related to is some Indian
mounds which are found to contain
relics OF Indian tools, etc. all made
of iron. In addition to these relics large
pieces of the ore are found.
The state geologist Of Nebraska re-
Gently looked into the find and took
several days to make his nvestigations.
He took laboring man out from this
city with him They were equipped
with spades. picks, etc, to do their
work. A number of mounds were
louid, several OIL tnGTn showing that
they had been used by the Indians for
their famous sun dances. Many of
these had never been molested. They
were dug into and nearly every one
was found to contain rich treasures for
the relic hunter and the student
The professor in talking of his find
stated that it was one of the most
valuable in the state of Iowa, that the
relics were remarkably we'll pre-
served and showed a Workmanship far
to that found in most Of the
mounds over the country. That there
was rich deposit OF iron ore some
place in this immediate vicinity he had
no doubt, basing his claim on the fact
that large undressed pieces Of the ma
tive metal were to be found. This he
said showed that 1t had not been car
ried far by the warriors as they would
dress it where found If it had to be
carried to any great distance.

is to be made yet this fall,
