THE LAND FOR THE CAPITOL.
There Are $4,000 Acres for the Build

There seems to be quite a diverg-
ence of opinion in regard to the
amoun of land belonging to the cap
itol fund. Section 10 of the enabling
act Of the state granted fifty sections
of unappropriated land for the pur-
pose of erecting buildings at the cap
.ital of the state for legislative, execu-
tive M judicial purposes" In adj
dition to this, section II of the same
act granted $4,000 acres for public
buildings at the capitol of the state.
The fifty sections of land first men
toned would be $4,000 acres, making
a total Of $4,000 acres set aside for
this purpose, The restriction thrown
around the lands for educational pur-
poses-that they were not to be sold
for less than $40 per acre-was not
specified in the case of these lands
for the capitol. The Little bill pro
vides that these funds for building the
structure must be derived from the
sale Of these lands, and that warrants
may be issued bearing not to exceed
S per cent interest per year against
these sales, but that the amount OF
these warrants shall not exceed $780,
1000. 1t is generally expected that D.
J.. LaXdal will be one of the members
of the capitol commission, and he will
probably be the chairman Of the
board. Every necessary restriction
seems to have been thrown around
the operations of the commission to
protect every interest of the state.
There seems to be much injustice
in the law proposed to be placed on
the statute books by H. B. 1T. This
bill would allow ANY store keeper,
merchant or other person" to sell any
of the poisons enumerated in section
1882 of the Code OF 1899. These can
be sold in the original package as they
may come from some wholesale drug
gist, or any person can sell in any
quantities whatever any OF the com
monty used disinfectants used in the
treatment of vegetable seeds and

:; one in the state could deal in it wit
impunity, while the druggist who sell
I this or any other poison is guilty OF
q misdemeanor if he violates the law
any way, and is subjected to heav
penalties. This is not a safe way t

]ieved that the legislature will allo'

IL Is pleasant to be feifefn-
bered by old friends. We are
reminded of this by an incident
that took place this morning.
B. Branson and wife, have just
returned from the west where
they have spent the past six
months visiting a daughter,
and this morning Mr.. Branson
came in and renewed his SUBJ
scription to the Times. He
says it made him lonesome to
be without the Times. lie YVES
one of our first subscribers on
our settlement in Missouri
Valley in 1868, and with about
one year intermission he has
been a cash subscriber to our
paper, having followed us as a
subscriber through all our wan
dering in the editorial field
ever since 1868.
His opinion is that if a man
owns a farm in Iowa he would
be very foolish to sell it to go
to the w.st to find a better one,
as no better land exists on this
broad earth than is to be found
in grand old Iowa. The only
complaint ever urged against
Iowa was its climate, but of
late Iowa is a Paradise COM
pared with New England and
many of the western states and
like Mr.. Branson, we are in
clined to believe a man IS doing
himself and family an injustice
% leave Iowa for any other
country unless it would insure
him a passport to the happy
and. We welcome Mr.. Bran
son and wife back to Iowa.

Some three or four months
ago we recorded the marriage
of one Wlnfrey, of South Dako-
ia, and Miss Bertha Be- mer, of
Magnolia township, and their
subsequent journey overland in
the dead Of winter to his home
in the north. AS a sequel, the
girl came back to her parents
home some weeks later, looking
ill and reporting that she had
been i'll with pneumonia and
was obliged to come home to re-
gain her health. Since then
she has remained here and Mon
day the man appeared on the
scene and finding that she was
working at a home some four
miles south of town, is report
ed to have suddenly appeared
there accompanied by an ugly
looking revolver and given her
the choice of going back to
South Dakota with him or the
alternative of taking an i'm
mediate trip to the other world
by herself. She automatically
chose the first proposition, ac-
companied him to town where
she left him in front of Kibler's
store roping her trunk to take
to the train, while she went
across the street and going
through one of the stores on
that side swiftly made her get
away up an alley to the home
of an acquaintance where she
telephoned for a team and be-
fore Mr.. man from South Da-
kota realized what was up was
safe out to some place in the
country. After waiting around
all the afternoon and being u n
able to locate her he left on
the evening train for his prairie
home, but his wife, was not
with him. Woodbine Chronicle.
