Gowrie. March 1.-THE Farmers,
Elevator Company of Gowrie, hela
their annual meeting in the old school
building here. Mr.. Stickney, OF the
firm Of Lowell Holt & Co.. gave one
OF his characteristic addresses, which
all agreed was the best ever heard IN
this part of the state. He Is the best
posted man in the middle west on
practical. common sense cooperative
matters. and not only pleases his au-
dience but instructs them as well.
He has addressed large meetings this
week ut Gilmore City, Ruthven, Pier
son and Kingsley. closing the weeks
work in Iowa at meeting here yes
terday. He is doing much hard work
for the Farmers Elevator Companies
cause In Iowa and Illinois and it is
a great thing to lave so able man in
terested in their behalf.
At the close OF Mr. Stickneys adj
dress the members elected their Off
GERS for the ensuing year and listen
ed to the report of the secretary, which
shows that the company has been
prosperous even beyond their expecta-
tons.
Much OF the success of this COM
pany is due to the untring efforts of
Mr.. C. C. Messerole, who has been
the manager of the company's affairs
since it's organization two years ago.
He has had much to contend with III
the way OF fierce competition, knock
ers" and limited capital at the start,
but his careful and conservative man
agement has made the Farmers Ele-
vator Company OF Gowrie one of the
most prosperous in the state. The
company's $50 shares of stock are now
worth at least S45 and the outlook for
future success is very bright. Mr..
Messerole is also secretary of the Far
mers' Grain Iealers' Association of
Iowa and is doing much to create en-
thusiasm over the entire state. He has
already begun a campaign for a rail-
road rate REIMBURSEMENT in Iowa that
will benefit the producer, work that
has long been neglected. and at the
next meeting of our legislature the
men of agriculture propose to have a
hearing, among the demands will be
that the board of railroad commission
ers do something, be given power to
enforce their decisions or leave of
absence"
The Farmers Elevator Company Of
Gowrie is only one Of many in Iowa
that are doing real business along
practical lines. The Farmers Elevator
Companies of Iowa are Incorporated

nnua of cninu hnsinass in Iowa

Ames, March 14.--Yesterday VIII De
a day long to be remembered by the
citizens of Ames, as one Of the hafd-
est fought battles over the election OF
school directors that has ever been
pulled eff. EARLY in the morning mat
tiers commenced to warm up and as
the day advanced, groups of interest
ed voters could be seen along the
streets. Since the trouble In the
schools here January, a great deal in
terest has been manifested as to who
would be elected to fill the places
made vacant on the board caused by
the expiration of office OF two or the
members. During the past Two weeks
alters have been at white heat. The
result Of the election is regarded as
vindication of Mr. Scroggie.
The old members of the board
who were up for reelection were
defeated by ratio Of two to one. There
were but two tickets in the field. The
vote was as follows. Henry Wilson
AS; John Judge, 440; l.. III. Panmel,
27b; Perry Bower $50. Pammel and
Bower being the retiring members a
total Of 72S ballots We're cast, which
was perhaps the largest ever recorded
at a local election of any kind In the
city of Ames. Quite u little excite
ment prevailed at the polls thruout
the afternoon the small room being
filled by string of voters from the
time that they were opened at l
O'Clock until they were closed at 6.
a large number of college students
from the Fourth ward were in attend
ance. AS to their vote it was some
what scattered, altho in all probability
the greater portion of them balloted in
the interest of Professor L. H. Hammel.
The most of these votes met with OPP
position by o challenge at the polls
ara they were compelled to swear them
i'm. With two new new members on the
board the citizens are very we'll salts
fed and feel confident that school mat
ters will now go on without further
molestation. In the evening the VIC
tory was celebrated on the streets by
bard music and a general good time.
No doubt there have been q great many
unjust charges made by both factions
during the campaign, but in the inter-
ests of the schools it is hoped that
all prejudices will be laid aside ana
the schools will be allowed to continue
uninterrupted.

Exciting at Union.
Special 10 rlmes-Republican.


Union, March 14.-Yesterday was q
very exciting one in Union. In the
afternoon was held the school election
and in the evening and lasting until
after midnight we had the Stars piano
contest. Enough dissatisfaction had
grown UP in our school to make most
everybody take sides, and the fight
was against the present member who
had hired the teachers and was UP for
reelection. The hiring OF teachers for
the future did not enter into the con-
test only indirectly, but the fight was
on past records. J. II. Alexander the
member for reelection was victorious
by the close margin of four votes. The
other contest was for the short term to
fill the vacancy and was lost by four
votes. Everybody hopes for good
schools in Union and every one should
do all in his power to make this so
The piano contest was very exciting
and was won by Miss Hauser.
