Method to Control the Trusts.

The President is seeking to impress on callers at the White House the im- portance be attaches to Commissioner Carfeld's recommendation that cor porations transacting an interstate business be required to procure feder- al licenses. Of course such licenses could be procured only on conditions as might be prescribed by congress and the president, and his commits sioner of corporations believe that this method affords Che clue to the de- sired control of the trusts. As in the case of his recommendation that the Interstate Commerce Commission be granted the power to fix railroad rter "unless reversed by the court of review" the president is certain to meet with opposition in Congress, and there is no likelihood that any such legislation will be enacted at the pres ent session of congress, but the wig orous manner in which the President has tackled the problem of trust con- trol seems certain to result in eventu- ally placing on the statutes legislation which will prove efficacious in remedy ing such evils as may exist. There is of course, tendency on the part of Congress to make haste slowly with new propositions but it seems certain that the leaders will become imbued with at least portion of the Presi- dents energy and his sincerity as shown in his application to solution of this problem.

Just at present he has Pat Driscoll down and out in the number of letters that each mail brings to his address. If the gentle man was looking for noteriety, he certainly has his vanity gratifed.

Mir. John H. Cullom, editor of the Garland Texas, News, has written a letter of congratulations to the manu- lecturers of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as follows: "Sixteen years ago when our first child was a baby he was subject to croupy spells and we would be very uneasy about him. We began using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in 1887. and finding it such a reliable remedy for colds and croup, we haue never been without it in the house since that time. We have five children and have given it to all of them with good results One good feature of this remedy is that it is not disagreeable to take and our babies really like it. Another is that it is not dangerous, and there is no risk from giving an overdose. 1 congratu

The Other Side of the Stewart Case.

The many friends of Col. A. G..
Stewart of Waukon, recently appointed
attorney general of Porto Rico, will
be pleased to learn that the report sent
out from Washington that he had been
requested to resign, on account of too
much society and consequent lack
of attention to his duties, has been
denied. In personal letter to Carl
Stone, in charge of hisWaukon office,
he states that he has learned of the
report, and that it is without founda-
ton; that he has not sbeen requested
to resign and has not offered re-
signation. That so far as he knows
the situation is satisfactory to himself
and the U. 5. government, with the
exception that he has not been feel
ing well since arriving in Porto Rico.
He is so well known throughout this
section of Iowa that his friends were
slow to believe the report. and hope
that he has been the victim of a false
arraignment.

waukee stock yards and running TO east
Broadway came down the street at a
rapid pace, crossing to the court house

Court streets Here they collided
with scraper used III grading, and
left the top buggy they were drawing,
passing rapidly around the court house,
then back TO where they left the buggy /;
again turning east and running past
the soldiers monument, they jumped
from the terrace to tile street five feet
below and ran on Main street to the

where they were stopped. 1t wonder
that they were not seriously injured,

Directors, all of the teachers of the
DEBORAH Public Schools with two eX-
ceptions were re-engaged for next year.
Miss Marie Whitmell, after being en-.
gagged handed in her resignation, and
Miss Nelson of the 18th grade will not
be here next year. Miss Whltmel's
place as instructor of Latin and
German, will be taken by Miss Lulu

be taken by Miss Bertha Moen, who
is promoted from the 4th grade, and

sister of Superintendent II. G. Johnson
and graduate of the state university.
Supt. H. &. Johnson enters upon
his second year with the satisfaction
of having conducted the schools to the
entire satisfaction of the Board, the
pupils and the patrons of the school.
He has been careful and prudent in all
his decisions. efficient and dildigent
in the performance of his duties, and
has given untiring energy and study to
the many different phases of work
incumbent upon him. That he has been
able to step from a subordinate posi-
tion to the SUPPLEMENTARY and fill it
with universal satisfaction and credit
to the school and himself, is his best
Endorsement. His reelection to the
SUPPLEMENTARY is the consequent re.
suit of having done his whole duty as
he saw it at all times. and being big
enough man to see it in the right way.
We congratulate him and the efficient
force of teachers under him, each OF
whom has earned the same indorse-
ment and reelection.

DecOrah's Population 1882.

Assessors McMasters and Gillett
have completed the taking OF the GEN.

give the total population of DEBORAH
1882. We had all hoped that the
figures would reach 1900, but the
total number falls short "a little. We
are able, however, to show gain
over 1900 of 205, which is larger pro-
portionately than the majority of the
smaller cities of this part of the state.
If the students here the greater part
of the year could be enumerated,
the number would be on the near side
of 5000 The population by wards
as compared with 1900 is as follows
