Fine Program Has Been Arranged.

Fine Program Has Been Arranged.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug 7.--Whle the Iowa
state fair is In no sense a Des Moines,
or local. institution, but truly belongs
to the whole state, one day has been
set apart as 'Des Moines day" This
has just been officially recognized In
the capital city by proclamation of
Mayor George w. Mattern. who sug
gests that on Monday, August q. all
business houses close at 1 p m. sin or
der that we can all unite in one great
effort to make Des Moines day the
largest in the fairs history"
There is expectation that at least
10000 people will visit the state fair
on that day, in view of which an espec-
tally fine program has been arranged
for the day. This will be the day that
the knabenshue airship makes it's ini-
tial trip from the fair ground to the
city and return, encircling the dome OF
the state house on the way, and this
of itself will be sufficient to ensure a
great crowd not only of Des Moines
people but OF visitors from all over
the state.
The speed program starts off on that
day with some of the best of the many
good races for which purses are Of
fered. The fair will be in full swing
in every department The evening en-
tertainment for this Des Moines day
will be the best that money can pro-
cure and it will start a week of high
class pleasure events.

FINED FOR ILLEGAL FISHING.
Deputy Game Wardens Make Camp
Near Manchester.

Near Manchester.
Manchester, Aug John Wesley,
who lives in Richland township, few
miles from the Devils Backbone"
will probably use hook and line here
after when he goes fishing for trout,
having learned from bitter experience
that it is rather expensive TO use
seine for securing the speckled beau
ties from their accustomed haunts. For
some time past the state game war
den and his deputies have had hunch
that trout We're being taken from tho
Maquoketa river near the backbone,
and IN order to verify their suspicious,
Deputy Warden Green of Sioux city
and Deputy Warden Carson of Ma
quoketa have been camping at that
popular resort in the hope of appre-
bending the culprits In conversation
with Wesley the other day the game
wardens remarked that fishing seemed
pretty poor in that vicinity and Wes-
ley assured them thai they didn't have
the proper system and that he would
come over to their camp the next day
and show them a few things about
fishing that Ike Walton never dreamed
of. Accordingly he showed up the next
morning with big wire seine and as
sisted the wardens in catching four
teen nice trout. Information was
sworn out against Wesley and he was
placed under arrest, and at the hear
ing held before Justice j. M. Pearse
was fined $107. which does not cover
the cost of his own attorneys fees.
The amount imposed upon the offender
would have been considerably more.
but the fine was reduced upon the
promise of Wesley 10 assist the war
dens in securing evidence that would
lead to the arrest of other guilty par

VICTIM OF OWN LAW
lawmakers Effort to Accommodate a
Colleague by Introducing Measure
Providing for Killing of Incurables
May Prove His undoing.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines Aug. THE men who
were responsible for the Kill the In
curables" bill introduced in the house
at the last session of the legislature
are having the hardest kind OF a time
to secure denomination because of
their connection with that bill.
The measure was the creation of DR..
Ross H. Gregory, of MEANWHILE, Adams
county. Gregory is conscientiously In
favor of the bill He believes it would
be all right and still thinks so. But
in the absence of Gregory from Des
Mones on the day when he expected to
introduce the bill In the house, Repre-
sentative +. N. Buckingham, of Alta,
Buena Vista county, was induced TO
introduce it..
Buckingham does not believe In kill
ing anybody. He is a jolly fellow and
it is believed he introduced the bill
without first reading it over. He intro
duced it because his colleague wanted
it introduced and was not there to do
it himself.
After he had introduced the bill the
horror of the thing came upon him
when he read the big headlines in the
daily papers about "Buckingham's
bill to kill incurables." Then he
paced the floor at his hotel and the
next morning before Gregory had re-
turned to the city Buckingham had
4, Il vi ,i,,oo
consent of the house.
But in spite Of his innocence and ig-
noranee Buckingham may be defeated
for denomination. Buena Vista county
is inhabited largely by Norwegians.
They resent the bill because they con-
slider it reflection on their old peo-
pie The Norwegians are strong in
building orphanages and homes for the
aged. They have gained the idea that
the "incurables bill provides for put
ting into practice the Osler theory of
killing the aged also, and no amount OF
explanations help the matter with
them.
That Buckingham did not read the
bill over before introducing it is to
them no extenuating circumstance, for
they claim they sent him there to as
sist in getting good laws and to pre-
vent getting bad ones. That he saw
his mistake and withdrew the bill is
given small consideration by them.
AS to DR.. Gregory, the anthor of the
bill, he does not and cannot argue any
but intentional motives. He wants to
come back to the next session of the
legislature to introduce the bill again
and thinks in time he could get 1t
passed He is trying to educate the
people of Adams county to his theory.
The matter is campaign issue in that
county. If Gregory is renominated by
the republicans it means sanction of
his idea: if defeated it means that the
bill is repudiated.

RESTRICTION ON TEACHERS.
Must Give Sioux City Board Thirt,
Days Notice Before Resigning.

Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, Aug. 1.-THE present
board of education of Sioux City, has
put in force again an old rule, passed
over twelve years ago, requiring that
all teachers who desire to resign or
accept other positions, must give the
board thirty dayT notice. This rule
has never been enforced by succeeding
boards, and teachers have had the lib
erty to resign whenever they pleased.
Now, this Is all changed, and no teach
err will be allowed to go to another
school without the thirty days notice.
This rule Is put into effect to pro-
tect the school board and schools in
general. 1t Is no uncommon thing for
teacher to leave the schools on a
few days notice, leaving the corps
of teachers crippled and officials liter
ally Cup in the air" AS a result of the
leniency shcwn, positions have been
vacant weeks at a time
An exception is made in the enforc-
ing of the rlle, however, Any teacher
who wishes to resign so that she may
take up another line of work or be-
come blusl1ing bride the school board
will put no aindrances in her way, and
she will be free to go. But if she re-
signs only for the purpose of going to
some other school, she must give the
required notice, or else be refused I'M
til the close. of the school year.
AS a result of this new rule many
teachers will probably be embarrassed
this year. 1t is the general rule that
Just few weeks before the beginning
of the school year to have from ten to
fifteen teachers leave to accept other
positions. And if the rule holds good
thsi year there will be number OF
disappointed schoolma'ams In Sioux
City when school opens September 4
