WILL NOT COOPERATE.
Director of the National Census Will
Not Aid in State Census.

Des Mones. Feb. 20.-Director North
of the federal census bureau has noti-
fled Governor Cummins definitely that
his department will not cooperate with
the office of the Iowa labor commits
sioner in taking an enumeration of the
factories of this state this year.
The correspondence does not disclose
the fact but 1t is possible that the con-
ering the census may have been fac
tor in determining the extent to which
cooperation was desirable. Under the
scheme of Director North. the patron
age is left in his hands-that is i'm the
hands of the congressman Had this
bureau co-operated with the Iowa de-
parement of labor some of the patron
age might have fallen into the hands
OF the state administration.
The government has now about thir-
ty-two agents at work in the Iowa field
gathering these statistics. 1T is con-
fessed that in number about 80 per cent
of the factories will be enumerated by
the national census takers. What are
known as ''neighborhood' establish
ments will not be included. The result
will be that on the face of the census
the manufacturing interests of the
state will show falling off this year
as compared with the situation five
years ago.
With the cooperation of the Iowa
bureau it is thought that this could
have been avoided. Cooperation was
originally proposed by the national bu-
reau. In accordance with the plan
then agreed upon by Commissioner
Brigham of this state. and Director
North, the last legislature was induced
to pass a joint resolution authorizing
CO. operation of this state with the ma
tional bureau in arriving at a census
of the manufacturing interests of the
state This resolution now is abrogated
by the action taken by Mr.. North.

Whole South Side Was For a Time
Threatened,

Centerville Feb. 2O-A two-story
brick building in the center of the
south side of the square was destroyed
by fire at Z o'clock Sunday morning
and for time the whole south side
was threatened by destruction But
excellent work on the part of the fire
department soon had the fire under

building and contents. The building is
the first brick building ever erected in
the business district of Centerville. 1t

Just as the department had re-
turned to headquarters another alarm
was rung in from the business center
on the west side where a fire had
broken out in the rear of the Wooden
bank building. The departments hose
was all frozen and fire fighting made
difficult, but after a short delay and
some difficult work this fire was under
control with slight loss.

Sibley, Feb. 20.-The following reso-
luton was adopted at the Osceola
County Farmers Institute, held at this
place, February Is and 16:
1--WE, the members of the Osceola
County Farmers Institute, realizing
that the prices of produce are to large
extent governed by the actions of GER
tain arbitrary organizations, promi-
nent among which is the so-called
to suffer from unjust discrimination In
shipping rates on the part of certain
railways; therefore, be it
Resolved That we commend the
hearty and persistent efforts of Presi-
dent Roosevelt to bring the. beef trust
within the reach Of the law and to
break up this disastrous combination
of buyers and packers by bringing
them to justice for violations of the
interstate commerce act. We further
commend his efforts to bring about
railway legislation intenCed to put
large and small shippers ON an equal
footing and to give all sections of the
country a reasonable rate for the mar
keting of any and all kinds of produce.
We, therefore. representing a part of
the great agricultural interests of the
west express confidence in his judg-
ment in these matters, which we be-
lieve should be raised above party lines
for the present, and we lend our en-
to his efforts in securing
thru congress, needed legislation along
these lines, believing that in so doing
he is following out the wishes of the
great laboring and producing classes of
the nation

At the New York State Assembly of

American women were so rare as to be
almost extinct.

Renbeck, Feb. 90. The Reinbeck
branch of the Iowa Meat Pro ulcers

ing Saturday and unanimously adopt
ed the following resolutions:
Resolved, by the Reinbeck branch of
the Iowa Meat Producers Associa-
ton
That we heartily commend the ac
ton of President Roosevelt in urging
upon congress the Imperative neces-
sity of giving the Interstate commerce
commission power to correct unjust
and discriminating freight rates.
That in the event of the passage by
congress of Il weak and inefficient
measure calculated to hoodwilk and
deceive the people and continue the
present regime, we ask that tie presi-
dem veto it and demand in it's stead
such legislation as will guarantee to
all sections and interests a square deal
in transportation rates and service.
That we urge upon our senators and
the representatives from this district
the Importance of giving the president
all possible assistance in his fight a.
gainst corporate greed, aggression and
injustice, and to this end we ask that
they not only promote every effort to
secure just legislation but that they
expose and denounce every effort to
foist upon the people sham legislation.
That the offering of free PASSES or
other gratuities to public officials. by
transportation companies, is incipient
bribery, and the acceptance of such
favors should be beneath the dignity
of any self-respecting servant of the
people and further, that we demand
the enactment of such legislation, both
national and state, as may be neces-
sary to put an end to such corrupting
practices.
That the railroad commissioners of
this state are urged to use their in
huence with the various ra lroadS in
the state in behalf of better service in
stock trains.
That we earnestly urge farmers all
over the state to form local branches
of the Iowa Meat Producers Associa-
ton.
That copy of these resolutions be
sent to the president, to each of our
senators and to the representative
from this district.
