Goods Points About Mules

A great MANY good things can be
said of mules when it comes to down
right steady work.
They are ready to work younger
than horses, enduring it well at two
years og age.
They are shown to be much less LA
Bile to disease than horses are.
They are easily broken to work and
rarely ever run away from fright.
They are very safe footed and have
an instinct for dangerous places in
the road.

amount imported from Canada. At
one time the United States producers
practically controlled the British
cheese market. One of the reasons
why they have not retained that con-
troll, it is claimed, is adulteration,
which has greatly injured the reputa-
ton of United States cheese. Canada
saw it's opportunity and by introduce
ing cheese of superior quality was able
to take much of the trade which for
merly went to this country. Cheese
is a very important article of diet in
England, says the consul, but the peo
pie demand good quality. 1t is prob
able that if the American producers
will manufacture and furnish the de-
sired quality steadily without adulter-

Some clothiers give all their attention
to the outside appearance OF their clothes
I these for the want of good tailoring soon
y lose the only virtue they have-style- and
quickly wear out.
There are other clothiers who are very
particular about the quality Of cloth and
let style and tailoring go--Both these are
wrong. We make certain that every step
in the construction of our clothing is ex
j actly right--experts pick out the materials
the best designers make the patterns-the
= most skilled tailors do the work. The re-
suit is that Armstrong Clothes have a dis

REFORM i'm LAW PRACTICE.

Some of the lawyers in Chicago are
agitating the proposition of reform in
the law practice Of that state. This
HIS been tried before. There is a
bill that comes up biennially in the
legislature relative to this, but there
are always enough lawyers in the
assembly to defeat it. Those who
have become accustomed to the pro-
years Of activity at the. bar do not
want the change. 1t is the men who
have not been in 1t so long, men who
perhaps have come from other states,
who are always foremost in the move
ment.
The methods of procedure in Illinois
are cumbersome in comparison with
those in Iowa and some other states,
but they hold to the old forms and
practice the same as they did years
ago.
In connection with this movement
there is also talk of increasing the
number of criminal judges in Chicago
and the number of justices Of the SUI
preme court. The objection to the
present system is that the dockets
are always overcrowded, and courts
are two or three years behind in their
work. Years elapse from the time a
petition is filed in the circuit court
until it is finally disposed Of by the
supreme tribunal unless it is litigation
Of nature that takes precedence.
Those who have brought this ques-
ton up have also made some compari-
son with the courts Of England and
Wales. In these two countries there
is about 42,000,000 population, or
about half what there is in the entire
United States. In that dominion there
are twenty-five judges who do the
work that corresponds to that of the
same number employed in Chicago
alone. Aside from these Chicago has
twenty-eight municipal judges. In the
United States there are 1,486 judges of
courts of record.
In England and Wales there are
$4,000 cases pending, while Chicago
alone has 10000 cases awaiting trial.
In the United States 1t is estimated
that there are 100000 suits in the
same class. This country has twenty
times as much litigation and seventy
times as many judges to dispose Of it
as in the countries compared.
This condition of affairs is up to the
lawyers to figure out. They are not
only expected to know the way, but
| it must be conceded that they have
the power. They have enough mem
bers in every legislature in the United
States, and there are few of other
classes who will stand in the way and
contradict when they say there should
be change in the practice of the
courts. They are the ones who are
doing the work and their word is
taken when they say the system is
wrong and should be made right The
responsibility seems to be upon them
for any move that means speediel

DR.. sALTER's WORK.

Burlington, Nov. 2S.-Over sixty
years ago the 18th of last March, Rev.
William Salter, D. D., was called to
tional church of Burlington, and with
out break since has continued in
that position to the present time. Car
rying the burden of 85 years, DIR. Sal
ter still ministers to the people Of his
congregation and is beloved and hon
ored among the residents of Burling
ton. He Is not as strong as he was,
but he is about among his people daily
and receives them in the sunny study
where he reads and writes and pre-
pares the interesting and powerful SER
mons he still continues to preach to
his congregation from time to time.
He has as an assistant, Rev. Naboth
Osborne, young and capable man,
who ably takes from his shoulders
the burden Of the passionate, the calls
and the detail work of the ministry,
but he loves to still give the richness
Of his mind to the sermons and adj
dresses to his people. And he is al
ways sure of great congregation on
such occasions.
Eighty-flye years ago Saturday, Nov
ember II, Rev. William salter was
born in Brooklyn, N. Y. He was ed
ucated for the ministry, and in 1913
he came to Iowa, driving most of the
distance In a wagon. Burlington was
but village, the Flint Hills, then.
For two years he served as mission
airy in this locality and then was called
to the church here at the age Of rs.
In August of that year he was married
| to Mary McIntire of Charleston, Mass.
10 them were born four sons and one
daughter. The living children are
George B., prominent business man
of Burlington; Sumner, well known
musician of New York, and William
M, a leader in the Ethical Culture
society of Chicago.
Mr.. Salter's work in Burlington has
been far reaching. He is undoubted-
ly the Oldest minister in the United
States in point Of continuous service.
In addition to his church work DR..
Salter has written a number of impor-
tant books. The latest effort was Is
sued from the press after his S5th
year-"A History of Iowa" This
work is not a large volumn, but is com.
plete in detail and is considered one
Of the best and most reliable works
concerning the state. The value Of
the book lies in the fact that DR.. Sal
ter is personally acquainted with the
facts he records for sixty years back
From his earliest recollections DR.
Salter was an anti-slavery man and
for many years willingly bore the re
proach Of being an "aholitionist" Dur
ing the troublous days before the wal
with the south his voice was raised
4 against the bondage of human beings
Today DR.. Salter is loved and honored
by a wide circle of friends and &C
quaintances, who join in the universal
wish that he may be granted still more
Oh the years that have become bene
diction to this community.

SENATORIAL CONVENTION.

In Des Moines next week there VIII
convene a body of men who WILL con
slider the method Of procedure 10 Sc
cure an amendment to the constitution
of the United States which Will pro
vide for the election of the United
States senators by the people instead
of by the legislatures. This IS an I'M
portant meeting, to say the least; I'M
portant because the matter OF amend
ing the constitution is not small one
and important because there are Two
sides to the question that is about 10
(. be considered.
1t is true that for years political
bodies of various descriptions have
passed resolutions favoring the cleo
ton Of the senators by the people, but
it can hardly be maintained that the
entire membership of such bodies
were in harmony with the proposition
oven though they may not have spoken
out against it. 1t is a common prac-
tice to allow such measures to pass
with apparent unanimity because IT
alters nothing. But when it comes to
the point of action by the people VINO
have the power and the authority the
proposition is likely to be met Win
more effective opposition.
This gathering, however, is not one
that is to be taken lightly. 1t was
called by the governor of this state
upon the authority of the legislature.
The call extended to every state In the
union and a large number of them,
considerably more than majority,
will have delegates present. They VIII
consider the proposition with the point
Of agreeing upon the best plan OF pro
cedure in view. In other words they
have reached the stage where they Will
no longer resolve" but will take
some definite action toward the de-
sired end.
It is probable that henceforth there
will be more discussion as to the mer
it's and demerits of the case Than
there has been In the past. There are
some legislatures undoubtedly that vii
deliberate long before they adopt an
amendment to the constitution thai
