Burlington Hawk-Eye: An os-
kaloosa firm captured steam heating
job in a government building in Og-
den, Utah. 1t is to be doubted, wheth-
er the Oskaloosa people will get rich
on that contract, but the advertise
ment ought to be worth more than
any possible cash profit that can be
made on that work. And, Of course,
Uncle Sam will have no cause to re-
s:et that lie came to Iowa to get this
work done. And perhaps ne will
come again and come often, hat is II
he really knows what good work is
and wants such.
For the information of the Hawk
Eye and all others 'to whom these
presents may come greeting" we de-
sire to call attention that this same
Oskaloosa firm has since secured the
contract for plumbing of the same
building. Also that within the past
few years this same firm has had con-
tracts for like work for the federal
buildings ct c-cstol, Iowa, Butte,
Montana, Salt Lake City, Utah, Kirk
vile, Missouri, Pekin, ILL.,, Kansas
City, Mo. and Joplin, Mo.

coNKLIN in 1873.

The following extract form speech
delivered by Roscoe Conklin before
the Republican State Convention OF
New York in the year 1873 is so ap-
plicable to the situation in Iowa to-
day as to entitle it to the closest read
ing and consideration. The senator
from the great Empire state said:
Administrations do not make par
ties. Parties make administrations;
go before them; live after them. The
people make parties. The people
made the republican party and the
people have upheld it IN a career OF
usefulness and achievement sucn as
no other party in history can boast.
"All the republicans in this state
have been summoned, with somewhat
of a menacing and truculent dicta-
ton, to declare this, and to declare
that; and broad hints have been CIV

remain silent. Who are these

Oh, Johnny get your gum boots,

The lots only two foot deep,
But that you need not heed;
It's the good old muddy time,
And she's Johnny on the spot on
time,
So pull yourself together,
And never mind the weather;
Wen have to grin and bear it,
In the good old muddy time.
Your marin says she's out of -four,
That means you've got to hike;
You can't go in the buggy,
So go just as you like;
In the good old muddy time,
And gosh darn 'em every time,
We can wade and walk and wallow,
We can curse and shout and holler,
But we've got to grin and bear it,
In the good old muddy time.
And Johnny, let me tell you,
Well have better roads next year;
You bet, they will be better,
Or you'll never catch me mere;
In the good old muddy time,
I'll be in some better cline,
SO hike along my Johnny
And wade the mud holes, sonny,
For we've got to grin and bear it,
In the good old muddy time.

is THIS ALSO A cuMMINs IDEA

Chicago Inter-Ocean: The Iowa
house of representatives has passe0
a bill containing a provision which
seeks to regulate the weight of hens
eggs. According to the dispatch, a
section of the bill makes it impera-
tive that one dozen eggs must weigh
one pound and Dalf. A dozen eggs
which do not weigh pound and a
half will, therefore, be regarded by
Iowa, If the bill passes the senate and
receives the signature of the COVER
nor, as illegal tender for the price.
While the bill was introduced by
Representative Freeman of Oakland,
there is some reason for the presump-
ton that it was drawn up in accord
ance with the Cummins idea-an idea
which has been gaining great head
way in Iowa of late, and which prom
Uses to permeate every department of
activity and every field of endeavor
in the commonwealth before long.
This idea, to state It simply, seems
to be that everything can and must
be reduced to the weight and mea-
sure system, as the only means
whereby the people may be enabled
to get the worth of their money. A
hen that has been producing an I'M
derweight egg must be brought up
to the standard, and to save time all
hens nest must, OF course, with auto
matte weighing apparatus, SO that as
soon as the hen has laid her egg the
weight may be registered, in dupli'
cate, on machine Of the stock tick
er pattern.
The duplicate tape will then be for
warded to the secretary of state, who
will register it, while the original will
be wrapped around the egg INTENDED
for the market There may be a
change of weight, due to various
causes, between the time the egg is
laid and the time 1t is traded OF for

DANGER.

Secretary Shaw, judging by his
speech, fears the election of major
ity of Democrats to the next house of
congress. This fear prevails in Re
publican circles in various parts of
the country. 1t is possible the presi-
dent of the United States has some
anxiety on the question. A Demo
cratic house during the last two
years of the presidents term could
hold back and hinder everything;
could impede the digging of the Pan,
anna canal; could disturb everything
connected with the Philippines; in
fact could throw the country in such
a condition of doubt as to disturb the
business world. 1t is believed that
the president is especially anxious
that his administration be as strong
at it's conclusion as at it's beginning.
He was elected by a tremendous ma
jority and would doubtless feel hu,
inflated if his administration should
go out with great unpopularity.
Furthermore, the president loves his
country and has a great many ideas
which he desires to carry out, none
of which he could carry out with a
Democratic house on his hands. Sec
rotary Shaw may have been speaking
for the administration when pleading
for correct Republican principles.
Certain it is that he would not make
such speech without the presidents
knowledge and consent. SecretarS
Shaw even used the presidents name
several times. He must have known
how the president felt on the subjects
he was discussing. He may have
been sent out to sound the alarm
against Republican heresies. He in
timated that the Republican party
was in danger from those Republl-
cans who have been attacking their
own party. The president is a close
observer of political conditions, and
it is evident that he is aware of the
effort that has been made in Iowa to
put Democratic free trade principles
into the Republican party.

groceries at the general store. but
the recorded. and omcial registration
alone will count, and if any question
should arise the governor will send a
special message to the legislature
with relation to the points at issue.
1t is thought that the average Iowa
hen, and particularly those Iowa hens
in sympathy with the Cummins idea,
will not only endeavor to lay stand
ard eggs, but that, wherever they may
be when the inclination to lay comes
upon them, they will hasten to the
automatic scales before laying.
The suspicion has more than once
flashed across the Cummins mind
that the railroads, which are the real
enemies Of the people in Iowa, ac-
cording to the Cummins idea, will use
every means, fair and foul, to render
this law imperative, since, if all the
eggs laid in Iowa are weighed, it will
be impossible for them to avoid sell
ing their tickets by weight also. Il
other words, If the weight and mea-
sure system becomes successful as
applied to eggs, the common carriers
may feel that they will be compelled
to weigh every ticket they sell or ev-
cry passenger they may lay down at
a given place.
Thus far the poets Of Iowa have not
taken the alarm, but this is because
poets are Enthusiastically careless,
1t will follow as matter of course
that they will also have to weigh
their lays, as it will be out of the
question for the law to discriminate.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1906-04-05

Hereafter it will be in order when
advising the farmer to test your seed
corn" to advise his good wife to
test your setting eggs" for you
know the house OF representatives
have tabooed all hens that will not
lay eggs weighing exactly twelve to
the pound, so great care must be ex-
ercised in breeding, so your hens
may not come under the ban OF the
legal murder bill introduced some
time since in the house.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1906-04-05
Honesty ExempIlfied.

According to Assessor John Perry,
since he has completed his assess
ments fully half a dozen parties have
informed him of moneys, credits or
other property forgotten by them at
the time of assessing. Such instances
are examples of rare citizenship
which feels its duties as taxpayer and
the assessor is greatly pleased to en-
ter the changes upon his books. Mr..
Perry will be more than glad to re-
ceive notice OF any other forgotten
property, or of any property belonging
to the wife which, has not been given
in by the husband or herself, but is
none the less liable to taxation.
