Circumstances connected with the

for the suspicion that it has political
significance. A continued strike and
general labor difficulties thruout the
country would initiate against Roose-

APPARENTLY settled the contest between
anthracite miners and mine owners
and operators. There is a renewal of
the packing house strike by employees
of the Beef trust.

and enforcement of law. Both hate

the administration that made the anti

pose of embarrassing President Roose-

A FINE BRAND OF PUPS.
TIowa CITY Republican,


1t pays to get the best and that is
what Secretary Wilson did when he
imported couple of Scotch collies
from Scotland. He not only proposes
that the agricultural department OF
the government shall be valuable TO
the farmers, but with characteristic
loyalty TO his own state, he sent the
pair to the agricultural college ut
Ames. In due course of time there
came other collies and it Will not be
long, if the precious pair keep healthy,
till the state will be quite we'll supplied
with this valuable farm adjunct. The
secretary paid 1880 for the pair when
they were pups which indicates that
collies are expensive, when royal
strains are imported. But who cares
for expense when the interests of the
farmers are at stake. If anybody de-
serves the benefit of the finest brand
of pups, it is the farmer, and we con-
graduate the farmers of Iowa that
they are to have royal collie blood in
jected into the canine branch of the
farm industry.
