friends in the state. AS assistant sec
retary of the department he has rem
dered invaluable service to the man
agement of the state fairs.
One of the questions which caused
some worry to the trustees of the state
College of Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts, when they turned aside from the
Curtiss- Stanton situation to select DR..
A. B. Storms as president of the college
was that of the probable attitude of the
agricultural press of the state. The
farm journals were all for Curtiss, and
had become deeply interested in his
candidacy. Some of the trustees feared
they would resent the selection of a
minister for the presidency. The
Homestead and Wallace's Farmer of
this city, both came out this week with
sincere approval of the course of the
trustees In the selection of the presl-
dent, which indicates that there VIII
be no trouble for the new man from
that quarter. The Homestead said:
I'VE believe that the Ames trustees
have been guided to the making OF a
most fortunate selection for the instl-
tuition In their charge. we predlct tnat
the administration of DR.. Storms Will
excel in usefulness and growth even
that which closed amid such sorrow
last year" =,
The Wallace's Farmer was equally
cordial and said among other things:
I'VE think the election of DR.. Storms
under the circumstances was the very
best possible solution of the difficulty.
AT the same time the partisans ana
supporters of President Stanton are
doing all they can to heal the wounds
of the recent fierce conflict. A meet
ing of the local members of the. alumni
is to be held here on Monday evening
.July 30, when DR.. Storms Will be pres
ont and the alumni will show their GOOD
will toward the new president

rainstorm, which might be called a
cloudburst, visited this section of the
country Thursday night, delaying traf-

this place over night on account of a
washout east of here. and it was not
until noon that the bridge was repaired
and the passenger resumed its run east.
The Frick bridge which spans the west
fork of the river west of this place is
up over it's banks and the bridge on the
Great Western which spans the creek
is on the balance and ready to be
washed away at any minute, and is un-
safe for the passage of trains either
east or west. The loss to crops will
be heavy. and much damage was done
by lightning. No lives were lost.
