that evidently were not in the habit

maybe going, somewhere. You have
heard 1t often said to the housewife
to be always ready when callers come
that means be always neat; but /

The book social at the residence of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. Fegan Thursday
evening was a delightful affair and
quite well attended. 1t was given, by
the ladies of St. Agnes guild. Each
guest came representing his or her
favorite book either by something
worn or carried and these were inter-
preted by the other guests. Much
merriment was afforded and some uni
que representations of books were
made that were very hard to guess.
Dainty and elegant refreshments were
served and most enjoyable evening
spent. y
The most recherche function given
here in some time was Mrs. H. NJ
Wheeler's afternoon at cards on
Thursday. The Wheeler home, which
Is one of the finest in the city, has
been redecorated and remodeled, ard

Wheeler has givn since its compile

served. The decorations of cut flowers
were beautiful and effectively used in
the,various rooms in colors that har-

The drawing room was decorated in
pink carnations. the library in mink
roses. and yellow daffodils gave a
touch of spring to the beautiful dining
room. Mrs. Wheeler is entertaining

PUBLIC SENTIMENT.
holders Must Not Be Paid Servants
Of Any Special Cause.

The growth of the newspapers and
the decadence of the lawyer as factors
IN the making of public sentiment,
leads the Wall Street Journal to sug,
gest that government by newspapers
is now on trial and whether it is to
endure will be determined by the fruit
it yields.
The declining power of the legal
profession is ascribed by the Journal
to the fact that Gin recent years
lawyers have largely given up the pro-
fession OF law and are now deyottng
themselves to the business of law
They have become more and more
merely business agents, the hired
servants of financial interests rather
than independent members of a pro-
fessiOn. The commercialism of the
legal profession is one of the causes
of its decline in public estimation.
Meanwhile the newspapers and the
magazines have become more and more
Independent and more and more
molders Of public opinion"
The rejoinder to this on the part of
the lawyer will probably be that the
new commerciaiism has not made its
imprint on him only, but taints and
discolors the new Journalism as we'll
as every other profession and vocation.
The scientist, the artist, even the
novelist and the poet-do they not
all how and scrape to the, golden
calf
There is little profit, however, in
such comparisons. The vital truth is
that the world refuses longer to hitch
its wagon to the star which shines
only on cent percent schedule.
Neither the lawyer nor the newspaper
appearing in the role OF a retained.
advocate of any cause can reasonably
expect to hold the more honorable
position of molder of public
sentiment. Elk.

As guide for the pupils of the ju-
venile farmers who are planning to
participate in the corn growing con-
test instituted in the public schools
the A. G. has issued set of rules.
These rules are general and will apply.
to any county in the state where such
contest may be held. A feature of
the rules is the requirement that every
contestant keep q careful record of his
experiment in corn growing from the
time the ground Is plowed until the
harvest and also write an essay re-
counting his experience.
The rules are as follows:
{ All pupils regularly enrolled in the
common schools are eligible to take
part in this contest.
No seed shall be used except that
furnished for the contest by the county
superintendent.
Four kernels must be planted in
each hill.
The hills must be approximately
three and half feet apart each way.
One hundred hills must be planted
in the form of a square. making the
plot ten hills on q side.
The remaining kernels are to be
planted on the south. west and north
of the plot to. protect and fertilize
the corn growing on the plot.
The corn is to receive careful culti-
walton. all such work to be done by
or under the direction of the pupil TAX

but nourishes. The only point to be

may easily cause bad attack of indh

excellent. If the face is wrinkled,

More About School Law.

In our comment last week we saio
that new members of boards must
qualify on or before the third Mon.
aay in March because the section re-
curing that had not been amended
or repealed. That we were correct is
shown by the following sent out by
the State Department: "In all rural
school corporations the present boaro
will continue TO act until July 2, 1906.
Some doubt arose as to this, and ~
remove the doubt, the Legislature mas
passed an emergency act which covers
the following points:
/. In all rural school corporations
the term of Office of directors whose
terms expire on the third Monday ia
March, 1906, is hereby extended TO the
date for the organization OF the new
board.
2. Each director elected in March,
1906, or at any regular election there
after, shall qualify on or before the
date for the organization of the board
of the corporation in which he was
elected.
Under the new law no estimate oil
taxes will be made until the July meet.
ing of the board and may not be MADE
later than the third Monday in August.
Should the board make the estimate
at the present time it would have nc
effect. No particular harm would be
done, but 1t would be necessary for
the amounts TO be re-estimated at the
proper time. y

PROUD OF DOLLIVER

The Hampton Recorder says tina
"Twenty years ago, March IL, 1886 }
P. Dolliver-at that time young man
and almost a stranger to Iowans-de-
livered an address before the Young
Mems Republican club of Hampton at
Harriman,s Hall. He was an eloquent,
ready speaker, but we doubt if any oil
his auditors even dreamed that some
day he would be congressman and then
United States senator. What brill
liant political career has been his
portion during these twenty years
and how he has steadily grown in the
estimation of the people until today
his name is household word in th,
state. Not only Iowa but the Nation Is
proud of senator Dolliver.
The editorof the Republican heard thai
lecture and remembers it with pleasure.
About year before he heard him
speak before the Iowa State Teachers
association at Des Moines and at the
close Of his address Hon. j. B.
Grimell who had been in Congress
arose and commended it saying he
would rather be the author of thai
lecture than a member of the National
Congress.

A NEW PRIMARY BILL.

Senator Crossley has introduced a
new primary bill which will have a
much stronger support than either OF
the others heretofore voted down.
This bill provides for statewide
county primary for the nomination
of all township, county and district
officers by a majority vote. State
and city officers are not included. /,
does include the selection of delegates
to county conventions, and requires
that the delegates to state conventions
shall be chosen from those selected
for the county convention. The Daily
Capital says that SIN writing his new
bill MIR. Crossley followed sugges-
ton OF Senator Dolliver, which the
latter made to him in letter written
soon after the defeat of the first Cross
ley bill at this session. Mr.. Dolliver
commended his faithful efforts for pri-
mary legislation add expressed his
belief that his bill would have been
enacted except for the complication
OF state politics. Then Mr.. Dolliyer
gave his views of a primary law which
might be passed as starter in the
right direction, such law to apply
only to township, county and district
officers. The Crossley bill embodies
these ideas.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF AUDUBON COUNTY
AND OF THE TOWN OF AUDUBON.
STAND WITH THE PRESIDENT.

Captain Hull, member of congress
man of the Military committee, return
ed to Des Moines last week to look
after his political fences. In an inter.
view, among other things he discussed
the issues of the campaign as follows.
There is no issue over railroad rate
regulation. Every member of the
Iowa delegation in congress has stood
right with the president in that regard.
In fact, the president has said that he
has had no more loyal support by
! any delegation than by the Iowa mem
bers who have stood united with him.
There has not been single break in
the Iowa delegation on the railroad
rate regulation, which is more than
can be said of any other delegation in
congress. There can be no issue il
Iowa on railroad rate regulation or
the control of corporations.
GAS for the tariff, the Iowa delega-
ton is right with the president. There
is no public utterance of the president
from his Minneapolis speech to his
last message to show that he desire,
to have the tariff question taken ul
now by congress. If he did there
would be friends of his in congress
ready to carry out his ideas. be-
lieve | know what the presidents views
are on the tariff and the Iowa delega-
ton is right with him.
"On the subject of a statewide pri-
mary law, there are some members OF
the Iowa delegation who favor it an,
some who oppose the bill. person.
ally was very much in favor of a pr
mary law for Polk county and think
the recent election shows the gooo
effect OF such law here. But don'
know as statewide primary Is neces
sary. In any event, want primary
law that will let the republicans con.
troll their own primaries and the demo-
Gratis their own. We don't want any
such an open primary as the amend
ment to the Crossley bill proposed. I"

FoR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.

The Republican takes pleasure il
giving place and endorsement TO the
following announcement made by the
Hampton Chronicle: 1.-THE republi.
cans of Franklin county will present
the name of Colonel l.. B. Raymond,
of Hampton, as candidate for the
nomination for lieutenant governor to
the ensuing republican state conven-
ton. 1t is not to be expected that as
thorough a canvass will be made for
this Office as for other places on the
state ticket, and hence in this an
nouncement, it is not necessary to
enter into an extensive account of
Colonel Raymond's qualifications or
public services. His widespread ac-
quaintance throughout the state would
also render 1t unnecessary, even if it
were deemed advisable in the case of a
candidate less widely known. Suffice
it to say that he has resided in Frank
lin county over forty years, and dur
ing all that time has been known as
consistent republican, always carry
ing the laboring oar, and always
vigorously supporting the party ana
its principles. Of.his public services
in military, civil and Grand Army
matters, we need not speak at this
time, but we are satisfied that il will
be freely admitted on all hands that
he is amply qualified and we'll fitted
for the place he seeks.
While he is well known as a man Of
pronounced opinions, and never back.
ward about expressing them, he is not,
and will not be, the candidate of any
faction, his belief being that to b,
republican with, and supporter OF,
the principles of Harrison, McKinle.
and Roosevelt is sufficient. In his rec
ord of nearly forty years as editor OF
a republican paper, there has never
been hint of disloyalty to the party,
and his friends claim that no man in
Iowa has a cleaner record as consi,
tent republican.
