THE EDITORS ADJOURN.
The Meeting at oskaIoosa Was Pro-
fitable One.

Special to Times Republican.
Oskaloosa, Oct. 14.-.Altho the pro-
gram was changed some on account OF
late trains and the attendance was
much smaller than was anticipated, the
meeting of the Southern Iowa Press
Association was success.
The first paper yesterday was by W.
G, Ray, of the Grinnell Herald, "Coun-
try Correspondence, Its Value to the
Newspa per, It's Cost" The paper was
a comprehensive one and took in hama
all the important phases of that part.
After the paper a discussion ensue6 Iii
which nearly every one participated
and many points of value and some
new ideas were advanced.
"Grafts and Fake Advertising was
the subject of brief paper by Chas
Walling. of the Oslsaloosa Herald. He
handled the various phases clearly and
went after the recent schemes and
schemers without gloves
Geo. w. Shockley, of the Oskaloo-
sa Globe, demonstrated to the conven-
ton that all editors and publishers
were. not always practical printers and
job department experts. Mr.. Shocnley
showed how a man may be a careful
and perhaps a successful editor and
yet know little of his Job department;
that is judging from the estimates the
speakers received in reply to his quer-
les.
Mr.. Shockley has had twenty-ont
years experience in the work and
gave practical demonstration of tins
estimating of job. He had passed out
slips prior to the meeting, giving prob
LENS and asking them to estimate thu
cost of getting out catalogues. Of varI-
Gus sizes and pages and covers, also
letter heads, envelopes. note heads
dodgers and posters, giving the grades
and sizes. The differences in the result
and the manner of getting them called
forth wide spread discussion and de-
veloped some useful information.
The closing paper of the mornine
was by P. S. Junlsin. of the Crestol
Advertiser. Premiums and Clubbinc
Processes, Do They Pay?" He dwell
with the subscription list, how best Il
promote and sustain a. healthful circu
latton The speaker confessed that h
was freed upon several phases of tn
subject and asked to have the Opinion
of his fellow editors freely expressed
BUT as it was already past twelve tn
subject did not receive the attention
that 1t otherwise would.
During the morning an tnvitatio!
was received from Col. Bob Moore, OF

Special to Times Republican,.
Clinton, Oct. 14.-The action of the
Upper Mississippi River Improvement
Association. in assessing all of the inn
portant river cities between Minneap-
oils and Cairo amounts of money
ranging from $50 to $1,000 with the
object of raising $4,000 for a work.
ing fund to prosecute the work Of get
ting a six foot channel between those
points, with the exception of Clinton,
has incensed the people of this city
highly. Clinton has been ignored on
previous occasions by the association,
the first time when the river and har-
bors committee of the national legisla-
ture refused to stop here, and again
when a report of the investigation of
the committee was made public IN
book form with a large map of the up-
per river, showing all of the cities with
the exception Of Clinton. Much indig-
nation has been expressed by Clinton
business men because of the Sights
this city has received by the river inn
provement association, and the resi-
dents of this city are at a loss to ac-
count for the action of the river men.

Hampton, Oct. 14.-Chicken thieves

In Franklin county, wide berth, I'M
less they want to get into the hands of
q vigilance committee. Chicken coops
have been robbed so often of late that
the farmers of Reeve township have
formed an organization for the pur-
pose Of putting stop to the nefarious
business. There is a probability that
summary action will be taken If thieves
are caught robbing hen roosts. A meet
ing was held by the Reeves farmers
last week and this evening another
meeting is to be held to perfect the
organization. Funds will be raised for
the purpose of bringing chicken thieves
to justice. Numerous thefts have been
recorded this fall, in some instances
nearly all the chickens in coop be-
ing taken. Tom Fox, A. D. st. Clair
and w. T. Kline are heavy losers.

Dubuque Women's Club President Dis
cusses Sensationalism Of the Press.
Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Oct. 14.-"Are Club 'Wom-
en- Responsible for the Sensatiollalism
of the Press?" was a question that was
brought up this week before the mem
bers of the local Woman's Club.
The bomb was thrown by Mrs. H. b.
Gratiot, the newly-elected president OF
the club, who in her installation ad-
dress said:
DO we in any way aid in making it
profitable for editors to fill their papers
with disgusting divorce suits, repulsive
attempted suicides, and a generai re-
pulsive dramatic emphasis of vice and
crime? If the women of this country
could, by any concerted action, make it
profitable for men to make papers that
tend to elevate rather than to democrat
ize the home, it would be worth more to
the human race than all the memorial
halls and statutes put together
This is the first time that such
question has been put up to this club,
and the implied suggestion came as
something of shock to the members.

Iowa, to sustain and support Mr.. Cum
minis in the noble and manly stand ne
is making against the powers and IN
terests that are corrupting the nation,
destroying legitimate business OF all
kinds and polluting politics.
Il live in the Burlington reserva-
ton in the Eighth district - and 1
know what railroad politics is, In the
democratic as we'll as in the republican
party. l know that when the railroad
influence fails in naming the candidates
in the republican party, it proceeds to
name the opposing candidates In the
democratic party = and it always has
on hand a sufficient supply of bribed,
bought and delivered leading democrats
to answer its purposes. Railroad dem
ocrats' can always ride to conventions
on free passes, and If they are suff1cl-
emily influential they can command an
nual passes. Everybody of intelligence
and observation knows that this Is
true i'm the Eighth district.
What hope is there for the demo-
cratic party or any other party
so long as it is dominated
by such an influence? In large meas
ure, honest democrats in this district
have been deprived of the privilege OF
giving honest expression to their poiit-
ical sentiments, so far as candidates
are concerned. How long shall this
continue?
81 deem it my duty to oppose such
influences. I know of no better way of
doing it than by supporting Mr. Cum
Minis in his grand work. And sin
cerely hope that, with the aid of the
true men in all parties. Mr. Cummins
and his friends will free the Eighth
district, as we'll as other districts. from
this corrupting influence. Respectfully,
uE n Stuart"

Des Moines, Oct 1.-two leading

written &. letter in which he explains
his position, stating that he is in SYM
pathy with the views Of and will sup

been identified with the democratic
party in Iowa. 1 have at different
times been ,honored by the party, and
in return have to the best of my
ability rendered loyal support to the
party and it's candidates. l make this
public statement, not because l think
occupy any prominence or WELD any
great influence in the party, but be-

friends and co-workers in the party
in different parts of the state, whose
good will and respect I prize, and
wish them to know my real motives in
case they should hear that l am not
actively supporting democratic tickets
in Iowa.
II do not say that have ceased to
be democrat, nor that have become
a republican. I prefer, for the present
at least, not to be regarded as party
man at all; and expect no recogni-
ton, and shall seek no favors from any
party.
His Policy.
II wish simply to say that if I were
resident of Missouri I should give
my support to Mr.. Folk: if l We're
resident of Wisconsin I should give
my support. to Mr. La Toilette. Being
a resident of Iowa, I shall henceforward
give my support to as great and good
man as either of those m en-ionec =.

days ago and the entire plant turned

four such shares. A number of prom

that a creamery in town and COM
