The Young Peoples Union and a
philosophical citizen of West Branch
have organized and financed pubic
library for the town.
Speaking to the Labor day gathering
at Clinton Mother" Jones is reported
Ia have said: God Almighty must
have had a Jag on when he permitted
Theodore Roosevelt to be born. for II
he had been sober he would not have
permitted such an event to take place.
Mother Jones seems to be in training
for a Cnautauqua attraction.
President Suckney. Of the Great
Western, Is an interesting public
speaker when he deals In figures. In
speaking of the agricultural resources
back OF 0maha's commercial power he
told an interesting story OF a great
iron mine in Minnesota into which was
backed an entire passenger train and
here they found seven other trains at
work hauling ore out of the mine and
vet. Mr.. Stickney learned the annual
production of all the ron mines in
Minnesota did not equal in value the
annual egg crop produced by the
barnyard hens OF Iowa.
Speaking of the magnitude of the
agricultural industry President Stick
rey has found that only 100000 men
are employed in all the coal, iron, sill
yer, gold and all othsr mines in the
United States, while more than 10000
600 are engaged in agriculture.
An ordinance pending before the city
council of Des Moines raises the. salary
OF the mayor from $500 to $4,000; So
licitor $4,000 to $4,000: treasurer. ST..
500 to $500: auditor. s1,5oo to s1.so0;
and engineer, $1,000 to $1,000. PERHAPS
it would be cheaper to retire Mayor
fsrenton than to attempt to bring the
mayors salary UP to his size. To do
this would require the mulct from Des
Moines' eighty mine saloonS-and then
some.

The Iowa Missouri country west of

A SUNDAY ROUNDUP.

Chief of Police Jones rounded up on
Sunday number of vio1ators of the
law. Having assumed disguise he had
easy access to several saloons where the
parties were caught dead to rights" 1t
may have been noticed that there has
been lull in the activity On the part of
the police which gave encouragement to
those disposed to disregard the law, but
the police, while mum, have been keep
ing their ''eyes peeled and the result is
that CHEF Jones has gathered into the
legal net thirteen of alleged law-breakers
who through their attorney requested a
continuance of two weeks, but Judge
Thigpen has ruled that the cases will be
heard on Friday, May IS. Several vio-
lators OF the slot machine ordinance are
in the bunch.

A FAMILY JAR.
A Fact as Singular as Fiction-The
Spirit of Retaliation.

In 1882 S. L. Cox was convicted in
Coushatta of stealing a hog in Red
River parish, for which he was SEN
fenced to a term of two years in the
penitentiary. He escaped and located
near Logansport and maintained his
incog by changing his initial. During the
twenty-one years of his residence near
Logansport he held the esteem of his
neighbors, his life being devoted to hon
est industry. The cid man with his fam
lily had lived happily until recently, when
he caused the arrest of his son-in-law on
a trivial offense. which led his wife, who
when her father escaped from Red Riv-
er was girl of ten to divu1ge to her
husband the family secret, and he, in
retaliation, advised the authorities of
Red River, who now have the old man
in custody.
And what advantage will this woman
and her husband derive if this old man
is sent to the pen to serve his sentence?
Considering his good conduct in the
long years since he fed from Coushatta
and his age, he should receive pardon
Why not? Why in this instance demand
the rigid, merciless 'exaction' of the law
when others guilty of greater crimes are
gentlemen today on legal technicality
or the sentimentality Of jury?

Mr.. HILLS ElG LOAN.
What He Wants with 81, ,290 900
Lately NEGOTIATED.

New York, Dec. 10.-A lot Of strange
rumors are afloat with regard to the
Great Northern centering about the
possible reasons for the recent loan of
$7,290,0 900 to that corporation. There
seems to be little to go upon. Quite
in all probability, the once very famil-
lar NM that denotes the securities
Of the old Manitoba road" has been
seen every now and again on the ticker
tape. The stocks, of course, are not
traded in, but the bonds have been
dealt in a little within the past week
for the first time in some years. The
securities were once great speculative
favorities and some tall specializing
was done in them in the late eighties
and all through the nineties. Then the
Great Northern took the entire stock
and most of the bonds
1t was a block of these gilt-edSedS 4
bonds that went in as collateral for the
new loan. The .rumorS about the pur-
pose Of the loan range all the way
from a preparation for a fight with
the Canadian Pacific to purchase of
an interest in the Canadian Northern.
People who claim to know Mr.. Hills
plan discredit both rumors and say
that the purpose of the loan will be
disclosed in time, but that it will be
nothing very startling. 1t is broadly
hinted that it has nothing whatever
to do with the affairs of the road east
of the western border of Dakota.
