IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

The Council Bluffs Nonpareil thus
answers the charge that biennial cleo
lions would allow the congressional
machine to eclipse state issues: LAS
a rule there are no issues in our state
affairs TO compare with these national
questions as subjects upon which the
public demands light. Too often the
state campaign is campaign of per-
sonalities Questions of honest admin
istration, just and equitable taxation,
primary methods, and the like come
UP, of course, but they are all COM
lparatively simple and do not require
the campaign of education, that for in
stance was essential to the enlighten
ment of the public on the money ques-
zion in 1896 and 1900"
IF a good general is known by his
choice of lieutenants.' the Dubu-
que Times. concludes that mfr. Daw-
son, who has selected Joe Lane to
manage his campaign in the Second
district, is something more that mere

should listen to the Creston Advertiser,

CONCERT LAST NIGHT.
One of the Best Concerts Had a Move
 Climax.

The members of the American band went on strike last night while giving concert on the green before thou sands of people. First the clarionet player got mad at the leader for some fancied wrong and packing up his in- strument left the stand He was soon followed by the trombone player. who decided to take his chances with inc blower of the clarionet The piccolo player did not like the leaders ac. tions and he followed suit, and the cornet player strolled after him In sympathy. One by one the members of the band disappeared until only the leader, James J. Fulton, and the man who exercises his muscles in beating the bass drum were left The concert had ended apparently, yet the people stood about waiting in vain for the return of the musicians. They could not understand what had happened. They were becoming skeptical If it was not real strike why didn't the musicians return. As they were try. ing to reason out the matter there was a hlare of trumpets. The strikers had all adjourned to the same place, had reorganized and were playing again. They were also marching. Surely they were returning to the people. But alas! they were mistaken. The band marched to it's headquarters on East Main street and retired for the night.
 1t was novel climax to one of the best concerts of the season. The peo- pie were somewhat mystified by the fake strike, for they thought the mu- sicians would return to the band stand and many waited for fifteen minutes or more in hopes thereof. But they were disappointed The visa ones departed with the band.

DUCKS AND THUNDER.
The Possible Origin of an Ancient
 English Expressi0n.

The Possible Origin of an Ancient
 English Expression.
 The phrase, Hike dying duck in a thunderstorm" probably originated in the peculiar susceptibility exhibited by these birds to electrical disturbances. They hang their heads at such times and turn up their eyes in the most comically pathetic fashion, giving u faint die away quack now and again. as though they had quite made up their minds that their last hour had come, but were resigned. They are thus pre- cisely typical of people whose submis- sion, more or less forced, is made main- ly with an eye to effect.
 This susceptibility seems to be in herent in ducks, for their eggs in course of matching are spoiled by thunder storm when hens eggs escape.
 It is worth noting in this connection that Shakespeare in .'Timon of Athens" says, we, poor mates. stand on this dying deck" It Is just possible that this may be the real origin of the phrase, as it refers to the sinking of q ship during thunderstorm, and deck may have been carelessly recast as duck.-London Answers.

 Ut appears there was more to that dog question referred to in this col umn yesterday than the reporter knew. Here is what a prominent citizen has to say on the matter: "An officer caught a dog on the street without collar and rather than kill it he gave 1t to me on condition that would have it registered and also comply with the law regarding a collar. Be- fore had time to perform my part of the contract the owner of the dog found out that I had 1t and accused me of stealing 1t. I don't like law, but unless that man calls upon the people whom he told that stole his dog and take back what he said I'll give his name to the prosecuting attor. ney and have him pulled for keeping an unlicensed dog. I'm no thief
 Third ward republicans are on the go to-day and before 9 o'clock tonight some of them will be pretty well tired. They are making their last fight for supremacy in the ward and the different factions are putting for ward their best efforts to make good showing at the session of registrars to-day. The regulars claim that they are sure to be in the ascendency this fall and ridicule the idea of any oppo- sition that would amount to anything from the Kelsey-Peasley faction. One of the real simon pure republicans told a reporter to-day that Judge Peasley "dassant' put ticket in the field at the next primary, adding that in case he should do anything of the kind he never again would be elected judge of the city court It was the regulars, he said, that put Peasley where he is and if he knows what's good for him he will not put his head against a stone wall. Of course it was only a threat and will not have any influence in determining what course Judge Peasley will pursue at the third ward primary. Judge Peasley is a good fighter and on that account the regu- lars would like very much to see him take back seat while the row is on. The same man said that he had made a personal call at the homes of almost all the working people in the district and was well received everywhere. Asked if he smelled much meat cook ing in the kitchens of the working people he replied that he was not in- terested in that way, though seeing the question was put to him he de- clared that he hadn't heard anything sputtering in the frying pans. Of course he didn't. MT Lilley and the rest of the meat combine put that ar ticle out of reach of the poor man and his children, and yet they expect that the common laborers will go to the polls with mad rush this fall to give them renewal of their lease of office so that they may continue to push them closer to the wall Will they do it :?

An incident In a German PerfOrua-
 ance of ssWtIlaam TeS1.s
 When performance of the drama William Tell" was given at certain German theater 1t was announced that the stage effects In the play were ex- tremely fine and that the scene where Tells splendid marksmanship was made apparent would asto ' every one. The audience waited as patiently as they could until that scene and were certainly astonished.
 The scene arrived where Tell was to shoot the apple from his devoted son's head, and the apple and Tells cross bow were connected by an invisible wire, along which the arrow was to speed to the target.
 At the proper cue the arrow did speed halfway toward the apple. and there stuck, to all appearance in mid air. Tn vain did the doughty Tell shake his bow to carry the arrow to it's mark The son of Tell looked very frightened and didn't know what was happening.
 The apple, firmly fixed on his youth fuI cranium, was bobbing about. the audience was laughing, and the laugh burst into a roar when one of Gessler's guards took In the situation and, com ing forward from his position at the side of young Tell, calmly gave the ar row smart rap with his spear. when 1t sped on it's way and buried itself in the apple on the boys head.

JANITOR LOUGHLIN
 HAS NEW SCHEME

After several years experimenting Janitor Loughlin of the City hall building has discovered something that will remove stains from brown stone and in addition to making his la bors lighter at the hall he thinks he will be able to turn an honest dollar out of 1t in other ways. The constant leaning against the granite piers at the entrance to the hall and scratch ing them with matches gave the place a rather cheap appearance and for some time past different remedies have been tried for the removal of the stains, but none of them did the work until the Janitor hit upon solution yesterday and after one application one would think that the stones were new. It is a secret with MT Lough- lin who says that he knows others will want 1t and according as they do he will let them have it at a price that nobody will consider exorbitant. After the entrance to the hall is thoroughly cleansed and frightened up leaning against the pillars and lettering on the granite steps will be prohibited.
