CHILDREN.
The Girl Child,

Give her a flower to keep and hold,
A waxen doll in a silken gown,
A chain of coral with clasp of gold,
A tiny kitten as soft as down;
And sing with your lips against her
cheek,
Loves dear lullaby whispering,
Till sleep comes over her eyelids meek,
Sing for the Embellishments
sing!
The Boy Child.
Show hi mthe bird in its daring flight
To the clouds brown edge. Teach
him to know
The flag that spreads to winds wild
night
Sweep of the rain. and whirl of
snow
Laugh with him, run with him, romp
and leap,
Give him his will of the noisy day
But, when you pause at the gate of
sleep
oh, pray for the boy-child-mother
pray!

A GOOD SHERIFF.

One of the only two nominees
of the repu blican party in this
county who are receiving any op-
position is Sheriff Thomas Bailey,
candidate for re- reelection; and no
man deserves it less.
Sheriff Bailey should be re-
elected, not only because he is
the repu blican nominee, but be-
cause he IS the right man for
sheriff. During the years he has
held the Office he has made a
record to be proud of. He has
served the county faithfully, tire
lessly and fearlessly; and not
only in the more spectacular
duties of his Office, but in the
more unobtrusive portions of his
work, as well.
"Tom" Bailey is just as hard a
worker when going after the
votes as when going after the
criminals, and he has every pros
pect of being an easy winner.
Nevertheless, he can use every
vote his friends can muster to
the polls for him.

ExEMPTlNG ALL CHURCH PROPERTY

S]~."'' s"NN Nib O"OuOH Enl
An objection which is being
raised to the first proposed
amendment to the state constitu-
ton, to be voted on at the fall
election, is that it provides for an
exemption of all church property,
whether used for religious pur-
poses or not. -
The constitution now reads:
Call churches, church property
used for religious purposes, and
houses of worship" shall be ex.
empt from taxation. The pro
posed amendment would change
this to read: "All churches,
church property, and houses of
worship" shall be exempt from
taxation. .--.-.
Whether the omission of the
highly significant words after
church property, fused for re-
ligious purposes" was inten-
tional or merely an oversight, is
not apparent, probably it was a
mistake and the men who drew
the amendment did not intend to
make the change. But in either
event the result will be the same,
all church property, whether it
be the parsonage or a mission,
which ought to be exempted, or a
city business block or farm
property, or bonds and mort
cages, all of which clearly ought
to be taxed no matter who owns
them, all church property will be
exempted. .~s :-.-.
1t is right and just to free
houses of worship, missions, par
sonages, or any church property
used for religious purposes from
the burden OF paying taxes, we
raise no objection TO this; in fact,
we are in hearty and cordial &C.
cord with it. But when church
organization grows wealthy so
that it has large SURPRISES to in.
vest in outside enterprises, there
is no reason why it should not
pay taxes on the outside invest
ments.
There are proba bly, at the pres.
ent time only few churches in
the state which would be affected
by the proposed amendment.
Most of the congregations are
doing well if they own their own
house Of worship and parsonage
and pay their yearly expenses.
But there are few in the twin
cities, and perhaps elsewhere,
that do own property for an in.
vestment, and as the country
grows older and richer, the num-.
Der will increase.
If you believe with the Pioneer,
that this amendment as it now.
stands, ought not to be passed,
vote against it at the election
November 6.

Do you know any thing about
the proposed amendments to the
state constitution, to be voted on
this fall? Do you even know what
they are, to say nothing of un.
derstandlng their merits or dis
merits? If you do understand
the amendments and favor them,
vote for them by all means. If
you do not understand them, you
had better vote against them, or
not vote on them at all. It is a
serious thing to change the con-
stitution, and citizens of the state
ought at least to give it the same
thought they would in changing
their city charter; or else let it
alone. We have got along very

what 4 Governor Might Do.

There is law on the Iowa statute
books which makes it unlawful for
the Standard Oil, for instance, to
sell oil more cheaply in one place than
another, says the Cedar Rapids Repub-
lican. This law, if enforced would
mean that the Standard Oil can not
put down the price of oil in Cedar
Rapids, for instance, to crush out a
competitor, as has been habitually
done. If the monopoly does put down
the price here, it has to put it down
everyw here in Iowa. This would
spell ru in for the business. This law
is not unjust. The same sort of law
is now enforced against railroads. A
railroad can not make lower rate on
portion of its line without making
the rate operative over the rest of its
line. But the law in Iowa is not en-
forced. The governor OF the state has
not had the time to see that it is en-
forced, although it is his first bust
ness to see that the law of the state
are enforced. But he is spending his
time working politics. After he gets
through he may decide to devote 9
little of his time to the public bust
ness.

ball game at Freeport in which many
of the local ''stars'' of that time en-

shows many familiar names to the old

Freeport, Oct. q, 1870.
< Friend Shurly. Enclosed please find
score of the game of Base Ball as
played ON Fair Grounds, Sept. %, be-
tween the White Stars, of DEBORAH,
and Independents, of Freeport.
The premium offered by the Society,
consisting of belt valued at fifteen
dollars, and the honor at stake, stimu-
lated both clubs to do their best: al
though the White Stars were defeated,
they have no reason to feel sore over
it, for all pronounced it one OF the
hest and most closely contested games
ever played in this section. The So
ciety, by the prize offered, have en-
couraged a manly sport. A large
crowd had come together. to witness
this trial of muscle which, with other
attractions, rendered the Fair a success.
