Des Moines Nav Buy Bell.

A proposition that the city OF Des
Moines purchase and present the coun-
ty with clock and bell for the tower
OF the new court house may be present
ed to the city council In the near fn-
ture by the board OF supervisors with
a view to having the exterior OF the
tower finished and the clock In run
ming order as soon after the opening
OF the new building as possible. The
supervisors have reached the conclu-
sion that It will be impossible for the
county to expend the necessary $4,000
for some time to come, as ii Is argued
that such an addition to the building
would only be of benefit to Des Moines,
anyhow, and that 1t would be fine
thing on the part OF the city to show
It's appreciation of the new building
by such a gift. In case the council
will not take action In the matter, ~
popular subscription has been proposed
for the purpose Of securing the clock.

Bootlegging TO to stopped
Police officers are looking for sa-
loonkeepers and bartenders who make
practice on Sunday of entering their
saloons for the purpose OF securing
beer or liquor and dispensing 1t to
their customers who fail on Saturday
to lay in a large enough quantity to
carry them over the Sabbath. The
practice during the warm summer
days has become popular until now IT
is easy to secure a few bottles of cold
beer with but little trouble during the
time saloons are supposed to be clos
ed. During certain hours on the Sab
bath bartenders can be seen sitting on
beer kegs outside the saloons. Persons
will walk up and ask for beer or
whisky The customer will then keep
watch while the booze is secured
from the saloon.

Des Moines Health Fine.

The health of the people of Des
Mones has not been as good for
three years as II ha been during June.
Less sickness during this month
than any time since / have been In
Office" said DR.. Miller, city physician.
Practically no contagious diseases
are prevalent, and the most common
complaint now Is rheumatism. For
some reason there are a number OF
cases of rheumatism, and few
people have bad colds. due, perhaps,
to the changing weather. Otherwise,
Des Moines people are enjoying fine
health, IL what can learn from
many physicians and what I have
observed are to be relied upon"

clared that the people Of the country

on the punishment of those who In
high places have used their power as
enemies of the country, but that the
people must unite in their efforts
through leaders consecrated to the
nations welfare.

LIBRARY AND IMMIGRANTS.
Should Carry The Classics fin Every

Narragansett Pier. R. L. July 6.-A recommendation that every public H. brary In this country should be equip- ped with books intended to help inzmi- grants to become citizens, was ma de to the American Library Association today by James Fl. cranfield, of the Columbia University law library. He said:
 Immigration to this country has become SO numerous and Is affecting so directly all the conditions of ur- bar life that we must assimilate these people by the most rapid methods. It is a mistake to consider their pres ence a menace.
 There ought to be iuNevery public library in every city of any size at least the classics. in several languages to win the confidence of these people and to draw them to these libraries. Once there they should sind elementary text books in civics and other 'itera- ture that will be helpful to them in their new relations, translated rom English into their own language.
 'In other words, securing them as patrons of the public library by their own classics, we should minister to their needs precisely as we mini5ter to the needs of our own people. NO such texts exists. even in English. Ir Is this very point on which discussion ought to turn-wnat this assoclation may be able to accomplish in the way of preparing or securing the prepara- ton of such texts.'
