Douglas. Sept. 13.-Frank s. Parker. the erstwhile real estate and insur- ance man. who left Douglas some time ago, will probably rot return to this city. A network of evidence is being drawn around him which points to the conclusion that he has defrauded sev- eral insurance companies. He coli lected insurance money, gave receipts, and failed to turn over the money 10 the companies. E. R. Pirtle. with whom he was associated last year, was caught for s1200, but Parker protected Mir Pirtle by giving him a mortgage On his Douglas real estate. So far 1t has been found that Parker collected about $1.000 before going away, of which there is no account made. B. J. O'Keily. of Naco, was also caught.
 Suits have been brought agains. Parker and two attachments have been made against the office property left by Parker. E. A. Won Armin got an attachment for s24 and B. J. O'Re.ly for something over $50. So far no criminal proceedings have been brought against Parker.

Two WAYS of Working.

Secretary L. M. Shaw in address at
Philadelphia: There is little in life
but drudgery, and yet think success.
full men are seldom conscious of doing
drudgery. If you take my advice you
will never work for hire. If You
work for hire you will never rise
higher. If you work for hire life
will have little else for you but
drudgery and eight hours per day-ten
hours per day at the most is all you
can stand and b beep your health. But
il you work for the accomplishment
of the thing which you are employed
to do you can work sixteen or eighteen
hours day and grow fat. and life
will be full of sunshine and of song

The Mulct Law.

A number Of papers have declared
against any change in the mulct law.
The wonder is how long some people
will continue to regard the mulct law
as something sacred when in fact it is
q legislative freak. It denies the
right of the majority to rule. and
makes possible legal business of
something the code declares contra
band It was enacted when the good
sense of the state recognized the utter
failure of prohibition and when the
LEGISLATURE had not the courage to give
intelligent attention to go important
subject. The 65 per cent clause is
unjust and the voters should have the
constitutional right to vote instead of
being hammered around by committees
working for or against petitions. The
result of the petition and 65 per cent
clause is that many cities and counties
have free liquor. no taxes and state
of affairs that is demoralizing. The
fear of prohibition keeps the mulct
communities Quiet and the donineer-
ing and bulldozing of the radicals in
the prohibition counties keep their
LEGISLATORS from acting as free men.
We notice tho Burlington Hawkeye is
among the papers opposed to any
change yet if we understand the situa-
rion, saloons run day and night and
Sundays there. without regard to the
provisions of the mulct law.-Iowa
City Republican.
We copy the above, not because we
believe all the article says, but to
show our readers. and especially the
radical temperance people who are
clamoring for the repeal of the mulct
law. that they have allies among the
license men, and that their efforts for
the repeat of the law are seconded by
those who want it repealed from en-
tiroly different motives. We are firm
ly Of the opinion than the mulct law
is the best we can do towards control
ling the liquor traffic in Iowa. and
that the cause of temperance would
suffer if it is repealed. The radical
prohi birionists who demand it's repeal
had better be sure what will come af-
ter it. before they join with the sa-
loon element to wipe it off our statute
books. Recorder.
