WOULD KEEP WOMEN OUT.
Workmen Refused to Work With
Women In Meat Cutting Depart

Special to Republican.
Sioux City, June PA number OF
women were put to work In a depart
ment of Armour & Co.'s packing plant
side by side with men. The meat cut
tiers declared they would walk out if
the women were not transferred to
another department. The request was
complied with and probable strike
and some ugly humor averted.

a woman cutting meat. 1t looks cruel,

we're not SO coarse as to want to see
women working in certain departments
of a great packing plant. We'd walk
out in minute if the packing COM

around in these departments. If they
want to work women. let them work
altogether in the packing rooms or

Sibley. Iowa, June 24.-At the pres
ent Time the crop outlook in Osceola
county is very promising. Never were
the conditions more favorable at this
time of the year for a good harvest or
somewhat backward. making some
planting late, but liberal amount oil
favorable growing weather has
brought the crops up to about where
they usually are this season. Small
grain is growing heavy and rank and
should it head out properly will make
a big yield. Bushy fields are about
ready to head out and before many
weeks have gone by the binder will be
hard at work.
The corn has been making a good
growth and the fields show a splendid
stand. All fields are comparatively
free from weeds and show proper cul-
tivation.
The dairying business is Increasing
in this part of the state. In Osceola
county there are now 1912 COWS as
shown by the recent census enumera-
ton, while last year there We're only
7.16S head. The local creameries are
doing an increased business, and a
large amount of cream is also being
shipped to the larger towns. A large
increase is shown i'm feeding cattle in
this county this year. The exact
number given by the enumeration
is 1853 head. as against ATT head
last year. The output to the markets
is likely to greatly exceed last year
All stock is doing well this season.
There will be a small shortage in
some kinds of fruit raised in this sec
ton this year caused by the continued
cold spring rains. No particular effort
has been made by the people to ascer-
tain the extent Of the damage in this
respect as all are rejoicing and feeling
elated over the crop prospects.

Eldora, June 24.-Your Des Moines
special correspondent is grossly in err
ror in his special under a Des Moines
date line of May %, in stating that
''the first inscription that greets the
visitor to the state house is a saying
of the late Governor Kirkwood: Iowa,
the affections of her people, like the
rivers of her borders, flow on to an
inseparable union"
The facts are these: Hon. Enoch
Worthen Eastman, who was the faith
er of Ezra Nuckolls, of Eldora, and
Mrs. G.. C. Gilman, of your city, and
who died in 1855, was the author of the
sentiment, iowa, the affections of her
people, like the rivers of her borders.
flow on to an inseparable union
Mr.. Eastman was a pioneer Iowa
lawyer and lieutenant governor of
Iowa in 1864, state senator in 1884, and
first placed upon the Iowa stone in
the great Washington monument at
the capital Of the nation. The cir
cumstances, according to the record Of
the historical department Of Iowa, are
as follows:
When the Washington monument
was projected in Washington, D. c.,
the state of Iowa was invited to fur
nish a stone to be placed therein. The
invitation was accepted. The stone
was taken from a quarry in Van Bur-
en- county. The secretary of state at
that time was Van Buren, man, Hon.
j. A. T. Hull, and he advertised foi
a motto to be inscribed on the stone.
Several notices We're presented among
them one from Mr.. Eastman, which
was accepted. 1t read as follows;
iowa the affections of her people:
like the rivers of her borders, flow to
an inseparable union" Thus this mot
to is now generally quoted, and many
think it thus appears upon the stone.
but it is not SO inscribed. The sculp-
tor found that the stone was not large
enough for the full motto, so with the
consent of the state officers he abridg-
ed it by substituting the following:
Iowa, her affections, like the rivers of
her borders. flow to an inseparable
union"
Only in order that history may be
kept straight do l write this letter to
make the correction.
Yours very truly,

Clinton, June 24.-The Mississippi is
receding. The crest of the rise. which
has alarmed the residents of river
towns, and destroyed thousands of
acres of crops in various localities
along the great stream, reached Clin-
ton at the exact hour of the summer
solstice Wednesday, the longest day of
the year. Weather Observer Roberts
gives the maximum stage at 1877 feet
above low water mark. This mark is
within three-tenths of a foot of the
recorded danger line for Clinton, which
line is sixteen feet above the minimum
stage.
At 7 o'clock this morning the riv
err had fallen one-tenth of a foot be-
low the high stage and during the day
the fall continued at about the same
rate River men expect that the recess
sion to the normal summer stage will
be rapid.
