The postotfice department has de-
termined to return to green as the
standard color for street letter boxes in
all free delivery cities. When August
Machen took charge of the free delivery
division of the department, green paint
was being used for this purpose. After
time he got to experimenting with
other colors, first trying bright red
and then white aluminium paint. The
latter has been the standard color for
six years, and the cause of it's adoption
by Machen was one of the things in
connection with his administration in
vestigated by the inspectors. Recently,
tests were made with paints of the
three colors mentioned, with the result
that green was found to be more dur
able than either of the others. The
change in the color of the boxes will be
made gradually in the various cities, as
the postmasters report that they need

must spend nine dollars in living ex-

being the case he cannot be to careful
about unnecessary expenses. Very
often few cents properly invested,
like buying seeds tor his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on. 1t

PICNIC AND SHOWERS.

The celebration planned by the fra
ternal societies for the Fourth was
partly a failure, due to frequent showers
during the day At about the time the
people began to gather at the county
square it began to drizzle and for a
time it looked as if the celebration
would have to be abandoned. This
caused delay in proceedings. Finally
the sky cleared sufficiently to allow the
commencement of the program, though
it necessarily was cut short.
The program opened with music by
the Columbia band. Then followed
the singing of patriotic songs by school
children, under the direction of Miss
Gertrude Harger after which prayer
was offered by the Rev. B. b. Gibbs.
Mayor Zimmerman, who was to make
an address was called out of town to at.
tend a funeral L. Marchetti made a
short address and then the bodies which
were to parade to the fair grounds
began the formation of a line. The
boys and girls who taken part in the
singing were conveyed to the grounds
in 'busses. The parade started from
the court house square at 1890 O'Clock
in the following order:
Marshal j. A. Jones and Aids.
Columbia Band.
M w. A. Drill Team.
M. w. A East and West Side Lodges.
Float-F. r. A.
Fratel nal Reserve Association.
ID. A. u. V.
Knights of the Maccabees.
Fraternal Order of Eagles.
Modern Brotherhood of America.
l. 0. q. I.
Citizens in Carriages.
AT the fair grounds mass chorus,
under direction of j. A. Rowley, took
their position in the band stand and
sang several patriotic songs. G. d.
Jones offered an apology for the Hon.
Neal Brown, who could not be present
to deliver the Grafton of the day,
because of pressing business. Mr..
Jones then read that grand inspiration
for oppressed peoples of all lands-the
Declaration of Independence. Before
doing so he offered an explanation,
stating that it was not the English peo-
pie the Americans were fighting in the
war of the Revolution, but it was their
king, the hated King George, who
would not listen to the reason of his
own cOuntrymen or to the petitions of
his kinsmen on this side of the water.
1t then being the dinner hour, the
balance of the morning program was
omitted Those who brought lunch
baskets began to Tighten the same and
the contents was washed down with
copious draughts of lemonade, pop and
other soft drinks. The intermittent
rain showers, which then began, made
it easy for the reporter to write up the
balance of the days program. A num-
ber of track events scheduled had to be
omitted because of the heavy condition
of the track. The bowerY dance was
very lightly patronized because of the
work of Jupiter Pluvius. The NJ w.
A. drill team performed some evolu-
tions that were interesting, but the
balloon ascension was not in evidence,
because, as was claimed, the balloon
leaked and would not hold the pro-
fessor's gas. A number of forms OF
amusement interested the little folks
but most of the people were kept busy

A TIMELY REMONSTRANCE !
Special Legislation to Assist Grafters.
Should be Wiped Out.

The following article appears the premium book of the
Marathon County Agricultural society," just issued AS it
strikes the key note should given wide publicity the
Pilot reproduces it. 1t should published every paper
in the state that has the welfare of the county fair at heart
and at the next legislature the people should wipe out laws
that will permit such grating shown in the following
COUNTY FAIR OFFICIALS.
1t seems to that the county fairs of Wisconsin
strong enough to demand That the legislature pass uni
form bill in regard to state aid to fairs
We all led to believe that the last legislature
intended to give such BILL but outside of the title
"An Act o Sec 1853 so as to render state
aid to ali agricultural fairs definite uniform
act appropates state money larger than
the special state fairs.
The law provides that the shall pay 40 per
cent all premiums paid out but that in computing the
amount upon which this percentage is figured
than onehaf shall be for trials of speed" So far the bill
uniform but another clause provides that the county fairs
cannot draw to exceed 81 per year. while the Northern
Wisconsin State fair at Chippewa Falls and the Interstate
fair at Lacrosse are allowed to draw up to S., ,OOO
The aid to county fairs is LIBERAL and probably all
we should ask and very few fairs honestly draw the
limit of 81 7OC The limit of $5OOO allowed the specially
favored fairs the state treasury the graft these
fairs and will result putting all of fairs in bad repute
unless the county fairs organize and demand uniform bill
and safeguard with provisions prevent the ootng
the state treasury
county fair in order to draw the limit of 81 700
pay out 2 25 for premiums then equal amount of speed
premiums be added, making total of 81 25O which
40 per cent can be drawn
The specially favored fairs pay much more than
for speed every dollar above So 25 that they
add to their other premiums allows them to add another
dollar of speed to the amount their state aid figured
Why was the new law, reported from the committee
agriculture of the last legislature amended in the closing
hours of the session to allow the Chippewa and Lacrosse
fairs to receive state aid up while the county
limited to ST. 700? We find the the premium

BIENNIAL CASE
IS APPEALED
Abstract of Record Filed With
the Supreme
Court.
ASK AN EARLY HEARING
Because Of the Primary Law Which
Is Now Operative in Polk County
an Early Decision Is Very Much
Desired. ~

Des Moines, March 2.-The bien.
NAL elections amendment case has
been appealed.
The abstract Of record was filed
with the supreme court yesterday by
the interested attorneys. They are
Z. M. Mccall and j. l.. Parish, for the
appellants. The record shows that
H. 4. Hadley and E. d. Addison are
the attorneys for the appellees. The
case developed that Judge G. H. Carr
Of Des Moines and Senator Titus OF
Muscatine would appear for the ap.
pellees and they will do so 1t is sup
posed at the hearing before the SUI
preme court on submission of the
case.
The abstract of the record contained
only the usual things-the statement
of facts on which the attorneys had
agreed. the copy of the ballot on
which the amendment was submitted,
the decree Of the court, the full opin.
ion of the court and the certificates
of record. "
The arguments Of the attorneys for
the appellants will be on file with the
court within q few days. The attor.
neys for the appellees state that they
will be able to file their argument also
within very few days. The supreme
court will sit next Tuesday. 1t is not
unlikely that at that sitting the case
will be argued and submitted and a
decision, therefore, would be possible
before the end of the month.
This is essential If Polk county is
to hold a primary under her new law
this year.

DIES IN ARMS OF BRIDE.
Bridegroom Suicides Shortly After
His Weddjnu


Ottumwa, March apparently
without cause, and leaving no word
to explain why he committed the
deed, Ernest F. Dubbert. teamster,
aged 10, who was on Wednesday night
married to Miss Minerva Fuqua,
committed suicide yesterday after
noon by swallowing three ounces of
carbolic acid.
Dubbert and his bride drove to Of
tumwa yesterday morning from Da-
lonega, small town near here, where
they were married at the home Of
the brides parents. Arriving here
about noon, Mrs. Dubbert and her
husband separated, she going to visit
a sister here and he to the home of
his sister, Mrs. Tim Sheehan, in East
Ottumwa. They were to meet at
Mrs. Sheehan's at o'clock. After
leaving his bride, Dubbert purchased
the carbolic acid. He then went to
his sisters home and while she step.
ped out for a. few minutes took the
poison. His wife arrived to find her
husband unconscious, and he died in
her arms at o'clock.
