the Iowa delegates in the ST. Louis

The Cedar Rapids Republican says
it is a consolation to believe that the
little men who ran the Iowa demo-
cratic state convention and represent
ed the state at ST. Louis did not rep
resent the great bulk of the democrats
Of this state. 1T was not the senti-
ment of the democrats of Iowa." adds
the Republican, that was represented
at ST. Louis, but it was Mr.. Hearst's
money instead"
The Des Moines News says it will
never be a matter of complaint that
the democrats at st. Louis lost an op-
portunity to talk.
The Keokuk Gate City says that the
st. Louis convention gave Bryan it's
enthusiasm and ParkerFits votes.
Congressman Charles III. Grosvenor,
of Ohio, recently delivered a Chautau-
qua address at Tama and the Tama
Herald says that he spoke simply and
plainly as befitted man who thought
he was addressing simple and a
plain PEOPLE. But here in the fifth
congressional district of Iowa." the
Herald adds, I'VE have listened SPELL
bound to the matchless oratory of a
of Dolliver and a Cummins we have
been edited by the thoughtful ad-
dresses of an Allison, and our political
faith has sometimes been shaken by
the utterances of Sullivan or a
Boies. In contrast with many of these
Iowa speakers and with many others
who might be named, Gen. -Grosvenor
does not shine as a star of the first
magnitude in the galaxy of American
orators"
7 ITO think that the states delegates
to great convention like that at st.
Louis would fall to quarreling on the
floor Of the convention as to whether
there were bribe-takers among them!"
says the Council Bluffs Nonpareil,
speaking of the Wright -Rinehart epi-
sode. "It was indeed rnortifying
moment for Iowa"
THE convention did not hesitate to
beat Bryan into the earth on other
phases of it's business sessions, lust
to show that it could" says the Mus

says the Denison Review, referring to
the work of the Chicago convention,
'but the people did both the drying

The Keokuk Gate City says that the
issue at stake in the present campaign
is the same as four years ago-the
continuance of prosperity. That is the
republican issue. The democrats will
stick to the same old issue that has
served them for forty years-"we want

pointments keeps time that belongs to

to keep it, but we have our doubts.
The Davenport Times takes judicial
notice of the fact that it was found
impossible to resuscitate the Kansas
City platform rolling it on the Hearst
barrel.
When it comes down to question
of barrels" a writer in the Davenport
Times affirms that August Belmont
has one that makes w. r. Hearst's
look like pony-keg.,
"Mr. Rtnehart denied that any mon
ey had been received by the Iowa dele
cation as an inducement to vote for
Hearst" says the Sioux City Journal,
but did not deny that large wad Of
Hearst wealth was deposited in some
Iowa pockets in return for campaign
work."
The Waterloo Courier says: Ger
tain Iowa democrats are convinced
that the tortures of a Katzenjammer
head are as nothing compared to the
feelings which are aroused by being
tied to a busted boom. The Hon. C.
A. Walsh can give particulars"
The Cedar Rapids Gazette (dem.)
has the following: "The people would

-FOUR PER CENT
TERRITORIAL BONDS
SOLD AT PAR
By Treasurer Vaughn to Refund
Issue of I893-Reduction of One
per Cent Per Annum in
Interest.

Territorial Treasurer Vaughn has
just scored a financial triumph in eff
fecting the sale of SOL 900 worth OF
territorial general refunding bonds
bearing four per cent interest to N
W. Harris & Company of Chicago, at
par and interest. The money received
from the sale of these bonds will be
used to take up the issue of casual de.
ficit bonds dated the first of May, 1903,
and which the Territory can take up
on and after May 1 of this year. This
issue of casual deficit bonds bears five
per cent interest The sale of the new
bonds therefore will save the Terri
tory per annum, 1000. The fact that
in the present state of the money mar
ket, Mr.. Vaughn was able to get par
and accrued interest for a four per
cent territorial bond, speaks remark
ably we'll not only for the credit of the
Territory but also for Mr.. Vaughn's
ability, care and efficiency displayed
in the office of the treasurer, which
he has so well and satisfactorily filled
for nearly six years
In another column of this issue ap-
pears the notice of Treasurer Vaughn
calling in the several deficit bonds of
1898 and informing the holders that
interest on this issue will cease May /

To the uninitiated the opossum Is a

enough ambition to eat his food. But
those who have studied his habits de-

his apparent stupidity is but a part of
his business policy. He seldom gees
hungry. and he always las . hole to
crawl into when he IS sleepy. And.
in spite Of the slowness, he manages,
