DUCKS GOING NORTH
FIocks of Birds Seen Around Sioux
City and Des Moines-Sportsmen
Preparing Guns for Lively Cam
paign If Warm Weather Continues
Few Flocks of Geese Also Seen.

Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, Feb. 23.-Mallards have
augmented the ''pintails" in the north
ward flight of water fowl to this vi
cinity and yesterday morning Sioux
City shooters were getting out their
shot guns, oiling them up and ordering
shells, preparatory to a lively cam
paign against the feathered tribe the
next few days, if the warm weather
continues.
Crystal and McCook lakes are open
in spots and last evening Sam Halli-
day phoned from McCook that the
ducks were beginning to light in that
locality.
A couple of sportsmen from Sergeant
Bluff in town yesterday stated that the
birds We're quite thick along the river
bottoms and We're arriving in flocks.
Mallards and 'pintails" with an oc-
casional canvasback are the varieties
noticed. There have been a few hocks
of geese seen on the sand bars and in
the corn fields, but the big birds APP
pear to be headed north and few of
them have stopped here.
| The Mysterious Slough.
Members of the 500 Gun Club and
other hunters who INDUCED in a clay
pigeon shoot at the club grounds yes
terday afternoon, learned that a
slough, the location of which is kept
secret, is black with the birds. A farm
err on whose land the slough is located.
'phoned the club that the shooting is
the best in ten years at that point.
Effonts to discover the whereabouts of
! the slough proved unavailing. The
veteran shooters who have been given
/, the ''tip" declare they don't propose to
reveal it's location for fear every
shooter in Sioux City will be on the
grounds early and drive all the birds
out of the country.
Des Moines, Feb. 23.-Great flocks
| of ducks, more than have been seen In
this region in many years were OBJ
served yesterday in Beaver creek anG
| in the vicinity of Granger in the ponds
and water of the creek by passengers
on the new interurban. 1t is considered
| very remarkable spring when ducks
| begin flying northward so early as this
| i'm fact, even the old duck hunters said
! they never knew of ducks around Des
Moines in any quantities on Washing
| toms birthday.
There were few gunners out yester-
day, for no one was looking for the
! fowl over so early in the spring. Their
! uuack, quack, attracted attention
| in various neighborhoods, how
ever. and it is probable the hunters
will be out with many guns today.

Delay Has Been Dangerous in Mar
shaIItown.
Do the right thing at the right time
Act quickly In times of danger.
Backache is kidney danger.
Doan's Kidney Pills act quickly.
Cure all distressing, dangerous kid
ney ills.
Plenty of evidence to prove this.
Mrs. G. j. Kuhns, of 205 South Cen
ter street, says: "The benefit Mr..
Kuhns received from the use of Doan's
Kidney Pills causes him to value the
remedy very highly. A strain from
lifting deranged the action of the kid
neys. He had a good deal of pain in
his back and the trouble was aggra-
waited by his work. Painting seems
to be particularly conducive to kidney
ailments. When Doan's Kidney Pills
first became known to him he procured
a box at Mcbride & Wills drug store.
The use relieved TIE pains in his back
very quickly and in short time dem
onstrated that the remedy is all that
is claimed for the preparation, of great
value"

tablished, the legislature is now wrest-
ling with the problem of extensions
along these lines and also to give the
benefits to volunteer firemen and other
classes.
After putting in five days on the
Warren school bill the senate passed
the bill yesterday by 80 to 10, a vote
that surprised even the friends of the
measure. AT noon when the senate
adjourned till $3.50 the friends of the
measure We're in serious doubts wheth-
er or not the bill could be passed in
the afternoon. The measure passing
by such majority almost insures the
bill passage in the house THE bill
will take the examination Of the teach
ers out Of the hands of the county
superintendent and place it in the
hands of the state board OF educational
examiners so that the county super
intendents will have time to visit the
rural schools and devote their time
to the interests of the rural schools.

Sentiment in Cerro Gordo
County Almost Unanimous
For Primary Measure
EDITOR GRAY MAKES CANVASS
Voters Of the County Sounded on the
Proposition for State Wide Pri-
mary Law and SO Per Cent
Of Them Are For It-summary of
the Canvass.
to Times-Repub!ican

| Special to Times Republican.
Clear Lake, Feb. 23.-The Clear Laka
Mirror has been making an investiga-
ton of the sentiment in Cerro Gordo
law. Canvass of the county indicates
that the people of this county are
overwhelmingly for the measure. Edi-
tor VIM. Gray sent out last week a
letter to the voters of the county in
which he explained the provisions of
the proposed primary law and asked
for replies covering the following
points:
81. What want to know is, what do
you think about the primary as a gem
eral proposition?
"2. Do you think such bill ought to
be passed?
"3. Do you think as a rule you:
neighbors favor the plan of themselves
voting direct for the nomination of al,
candidates, including state officers,
congressman and United States sena-
tors?
a. Would you like to have our sem
ator and representative at Des Moines
this winter vote for the bll?"
Editor Gray in his summary OF the
results of the canvass says:
The answers to this letter of enquiry
are Still coming in but up to date we
have 270 replies. With the letter we
sent out postal cards with the printed
questions leaving blank lines for ans
wers. In reply to the first question.
are you for or against state wide pri-
mary elections, 270 answers were re-
ceived OF this number 264 state that
they favor the state wide primary,
four are opposed to it and two favor
primaries for each county only to
nominate county officers and elect del
egates to state and other conventions.
This is remarkable showing and in
dictates practical unanimity in this
county in favor of the state wide pri-
mary or, to be exact, a percentage OF
SO. The same proportion governs also
the other questions. All think that
primary bill should be passed and
all think that our senator and repre-
sentative should vote for one. AS 20
the question, do you think as rule
your neighbors favor the plan Of
themselves voting direct for the NOM
ination of all candidates, including
state officers, congressman, and U. S.
senator's. the majority say yes some
say they do not know, but none say
no. ,
OF the 270 answers received 146 were
from the country townships, outside OF
Mason City and Clear Lake. The let
ters were sent to representative citi-
zens in every precinct in the county
and the answers are from men who
are we'll known in their communities
and stand there for all that is praise
worthy in private life. Many of them
not only answered the questions but
took all the blank space in the postal
cards to indicate their interest in this
question. Others wrote letters and all
together the canvass was an interest
ing one because the answers indicate
that the people are wide awake and
thinking.
The primary is coming and the man
who stands in it's way will get into
trouble.

In Dangerous Condition.
Special Ii. Times Republican.
Des Moines, Feb. 23.-South Des
Moines is temporarily at least, prac-
tically shut off from the rest of the
city, the First street bridge being
closed to traffic on account of it's dam
gerous condition.
Police officers were hurried to the
bridge at 10 o'clock last night on a
summons from street car men who
crossed the bridge as it tottered from
the force of the blows of huge cakes
of ice, and within fifteen minutes both
ends of the bridge were roped off and
passage denied to street cars and wag-
ons.
The breaking of an immense ice
gorge about a mile above the water
works on the Raccoon river at 8 O'Clock
last night was principally responsible
for the sudden rush of the river, and
all night long the old covered bridge
seemed tottering on the brink of de-
struction. The board of public works
confirmed the order of Police Sergeant
A. Fl. Day to close the bridge to traffic,
and a thorough inspection will be
made this morning to determine its
condition.
