Weather.crop Bulletin.
For Week Ending Aug. 13, 1906.

FOR week Ending Aug. 13, 1906.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The average temperature for the
past week was slightly above the nor
NAL in the eastern half of the state,
and slightly below in the western
districts. The rainfall was unequally
distributed, as usual at this time of
the year, but all parts of the state re-
ceived some benefit from the show
cry weather that prevailed the first
half of the week. The heaviest
showers were reported from stations
in the Northwest, North Central, and
East Central districts. In the North
west district the heavy rains retarded
the wheat harvest, and continued wet
and cloudy weather caused grain in
shocks to sprought. In limited areas
considerable damage to spring wheat
and oats resulted from the unfavorable
local conditions. For the state at
large, the copious rains for the week
have been of inestimable value. The
corn crop has been relieved at.its most
critical stage; pastures show marked
Improvement, and late potatoes give
promise of an ample yield. In portions
of the southern section more rain is
desired within few days, but in the
central and northern sections there is
an ample supply of moisture to bring
all crops to maturity.

To the Democracy Of the State.

The democrats of Iowa enter this
campaign united and with the firm
belief that it will elect the entire
state ticket. Never in the history OF
Iowa have the democrats had more
acceptable ticket and platform than
the one nominated at Waterloo. We
have no corporations or moneyed in.
terests to draw on for campaign ex-
penses. This is fight OF the com
mon people and to such we must look
Tor our campaign funds. Therefore
we appeal to every democrat in the
state to donate one dollar each to add
III carrying on campaign IN the In
terest OF the people CT Iowa. Ifevery
man who believes the democratic
ticket ought to be elected will do this,
we will have sufficient funds to sue
cessfully conduct the campaign.
Send all money by registered letter

/. SIN a Woman's Power

Among the important attractions
booked at the opera house for early
presentation is that famous play, in
. Woman,s Power" which is q very
cleverly arranged melodrama written
by Ernest Stout, the Chicago repre-
sentative for the Associated Press.
The play is said to be one OF intense
human interest and is never suggest
I've of the exaggerated sensational,
but is written around an actual Incl
dent that occurred In Chicago high
life a few years ago. It is at times
exciting but nevertheless pure play
with an object lesson. 1t nnfolds q
sublime narrative of love and honor
and abounds with beautiful dialogue.

The Montgomery Cooperage Company
No More.

The following bit of news from the
Montgomery Advertiser of Thursday
is of interest to the many readers of
this paper.
by an order made yesterday by
Judge Themes B. Jones, of the United
States court, the cooperage plant of
Jacksonville, Fla, one of the largest
creditors of the Montgomery Hard
wood and Cooperage Company, was
allowed to purchase all the material
of the latter company for $4,000.
Creditors of the Montgomery Com
pany, it will be remembered, filed
a petition about two weeks ago, to
declare the company bankrupt and
Jacques Leob. of Montgomery was ap-
pointed receiver by Judge Jones.
acting as receiver, Mr.. Leob filed a
motion with the court setting forth
that there was sufficient material on
hand to manufacture $4,000 barrels,
and asked for an order to operate the
plant and manufacture the material
which he valued at $12,70O.
The creditors of the company OPP
posed the motion and it has been ar-
gued for two days before Judge Jones
Yesterday morning an order was made
by Judge Jones granting the motion Of
Receiver Leob.s Thereupon the Jack
sonville company proposed to pay
SIT 900 for the material which the re-
ceiver valued at $4,000, after due con-
sideration Judge Jones made an order
for the sale.
This means that the plant of the
Cooperage Company in north Mont
gomery will suspend operations until
it is sold by order of the court.

MIR. Joseph n. Bell.

The office of county judge of Mar
ion county is to be filed at the cleo
ton in November next and Mr.. Joseph
H Bell. in a card printed elsewhere
announces himself a candidate for the
nomination before the democratic pri-
maries.
Mr.. Bell is a native of this city, hav-
ing been born here in 1879. He is the
son of tN late Joseph B. Bell. who
came to Ocala in the early SOS and
was prominent business man in the
early life Of this city.
Mr.. Bell studied law in the office
OF Col. o. T. Green for four years
and afterwards took a law course at
the University Of Virginia and was
admitted to practice in October, 1902
He was appointed to the office of
county judge Of Marion county on
August 5, 1905. by Governor Napolean
B. Broward after the death of Judge
Robert Bullock, and since that time
has filled the office in a most accep-
table manner.
Mr.. Bell became a member of the
Ocala Rifles in 1897 and now holds the
place of second lieutenant in that or
ganization.
When Mr.. Bell received the telegram
stating that he had been appointed
to the office of judge by Governor
Broward, this paper spoke of him and
his appointment as follows:
Mr.. Joseph H. Bell received a tel
egram Saturday afternoon from his
sister, Miss jefferson Bell. who is at
Tallahassee, congratulating him upon
his appointment by the governor to the
office of judge of the county court for
this county.
The telegram stated that the COM
mission had been duly signed and
sealed and was on its way to Ocala
Mr., Bell is a native of this city and
his parents and grandparents We're all
residents here and were pioneers to
the county.
Mr.. Bell is an excellent young man.
ambitious and of splendid character
and attainments. He read law in the
office with Mr.. o. T. Green and later
on attended lectures at the Univer-
sity of Virginia and was admitted to
the bar here several years ago.
Mr.. Bell was receiving the congrat-
ulations of his friends all the after
noon. We believe that he will make
a capable and acceptable official and
we extend TO him our very cordial
congratulations.

Mr.: Davis card announcing himself
a candidate for the Office of state at
torney for the fifth judicial circuit be-
fore the democratic primary win be
found elsewhere in our columns.
Mr.. Davis is now in the prime and
vigor of manhood. He is thirty-six
years of age. He entered law office
in this city in 1883 and was admitted
to the bar in 1892. AS he did not
possess the wealth of a Rockefeller or
a Flagler he studied law in the sum-
mer and worked in winter, doing what
ever came to his hands. After he was
admitted. he started out upon his own
responsibility and as his success de-
pended upon his efforts he addressed
himself industriously to his profess
sion and his ability was soon recog-
nized.
Mr. Davis entered into o-partner-
ship with Mr.. Neal NJ. Alfred. the
present state attorney for this dis
trict in 1902. and the firm made a
most enviable reputation.
