last night with his lecture, Prone

or Christ.
Prometheus saw the world In a state
Of utter desolation. He determined to
become mans benefactor and built the
first house. and from this has sprung
the marvels of the builders art. Then
he stole fire from heaven with which
to warm and bless humanity. For this
Prometheus was put in chains and
held in bondage, and in this condition
continued to bless humanity. The story
illustrates the strength and decision OF
character, struggling against injustice
and adversely. The conception, with
surrounding details, is sublime, The
scenery described was weird and ter
rible. The lowly rock frowning over the
waves the stern and imperous sons of

COUSINS AT GILMAN

congressman Op0nS Suo NSpupucau
County Campaign in an Effective
Speech - Large Audience Present
Approves His Remarks - Prosperity
Pointers.
The campaign In Marshall county for
the republicans was opened Friday
night, when Congressman Robert G.
Cousins addressed large and enthu-
siastic audience in the opera house at
orable to a great meeting and the event
justified the circumstances, for the ca
pacity of the opera house was taxed.
The address was received with hearty
appreciation, and, at Its conclusion,
with unanimous applause.
Congressman Cousins was introduc-
ed by Committeeman ]. M. Carney,
who presided. Mr.. Cousins opened by
the statement that he was in Gilman
fourteen years ago and again nine
years ago, and he contrasted the con-
ditions OF the country from 1892 to
1896 and the period since under tbs
beneficent rule OF protection to Amer-
lean industries inaugurated, by the re-
publican party. He characterized the
past ten years as the most prosperous
the country has ever known, and the
illustrations drawn from the prices
during the two periods We're convinc-
ing Of the benefits from protection.
Mr.. Cousins compared the cry of the
free traders, "open the mints," with the
plea of the martyred Mckinley to
"oben the mills" and the saying of the
immortal Lincoln that he didn't know
much about the tariff, but when we
sent our goods abroad they got the
goods and we got the money, but when
we sold our goods at home we had the
goods and the money, too
Mr.. Cousins cited the fact that this
country was Its own best customer, for
81 per cent Of our manufactured prod
ucts were sold at home and only per
cent went to foreign countries, and Of
this per cent only three-tenths of
per cent were sold cheaper than our
people were required to pay for the
same class of goods. He deprecated
the theory that the era of cheap prices
which free trade would bring about
was beneficial to the country, but
showed conclusively that the era OF
protection which stimulated every
source of human activity and made 1t
possible to find employment at remun-
erative prices for all kinds of labor,
was the era Of development of happi-
ness, prosperity and growth for the
country. He concluded by an earnest
appeal for support of the ticket from
governor to constable, that the state
convention in its wisdom had nominat-
ed men for the different offices who
were worthy of our suffrages, and that
the ticket as a whole should receive
hearty support.

WOMEN PEoDLERs ARRESTED,
Mrs. c. 7. Stewart, OF, This City, and

Mrs. C. T. Stewart, OF. This City, and
COMPANION in Trouble in Nevada.
Word from Nevada says that Mrs.
C. L. Stewart, of this city, and Mrs.
w. FL. Clement, Of Des Moines, were
arrested there Friday, charged with
peddling medicines without license.
Mrs. Clement, who was formerly a
resident of Manshalltown, and has
lectured here several times, is the state
agen. for an Indiana concern which
manufactures remedies for female dis
eases. Mrs. Stewart has been her as
sistant for some time.
The charge against them Is that OF
being itinerant vendors of drugs and
nostrums. Mrs. Clement was unable
to appear in court, being i'll, but will
be arraigned Monday. Mrs. Stewart
plead not guilty and gave bonds for
her appearance on October 20. 1t is
understood that the. defense to the
charge will he that they are engaged
in interstate commerce and therefore
protected under the national law. 1t
is also said that the managers of the
manufacturing concern they represent
will see to it that their agents have
legal counsel to defend them. The
women do not appear to be greatly
concerned as to the outcome OF their
cases.

Local Comment

These beautiful days are greatly to
be enjoyed just now but no household
err can afford to delay his preparation
for winter A storm may bear dap
upon us at any moment, billed thru
on a. sixty miles an hour wind. Fur
naces should be cleaned, or repaired or
Installed. Stoves should be set up now
and tested so there will lie no danger
Of setting fire to the house when "a
strong fire is needed. Fuel should be
put in right away, 1t is senseess TO
wait until cold weather Is here and eX-
pect five or six coal dealers to deliver
fuel to $500 residences all in one day.
Strange to say hundreds of people are
unrea sonable enough to ask such I'M
possible service and the coal dealers
life is one of grief which progresses IN
inverse ration as his coal pile dimtn-
ishes at this time Of year. Be prudent.
Get your storm doors and windows on
while the weather is pleasant. Every
man knows now that winter will soon
be here.
There is nc, doubt but that boiler
shop in full operation at ten o'clock ct
night will disturb the slumbers Of those
in the immediate vicinity, but the
trouble Is that if the boiler shops and
other factories of this city were not IN
full running order many of us would
have to walk the streets Of night tor
the lack of q roof under which to sleep.
1t is unfortunate that such institutions
as a boiler shop, an ice plant or q bug
gy.factory should have grown up IN the
1{ctri0f Thew
would have been better served II they
had been located down along the rail-
road tracks but when they were started
no man knew what their future would
be. They grew apace and the whole
city rejoiced in their growth. Our
merchants are banded together con-
tributing money trying to get some
more factories just like them to come
here and make some more noise and SO
far as the coed of the whole communl-
ty is concerned the noise of factories
sounds good. This does not relieve the
neighbors, however so the matter
might as we'll be faced. The factories
can't be moved now and the city does
not want them to close down to quiet
their noise There is only one other
alternative The suggestion is appar-
emit.
There is still alquestion as to wheth-
er dam in the river is really neces-
sary to the preservation of the city
water supply, but the city has rights
now which it would lose were it to
neglect to maintain such DAM and
since it is likely that the state, in be-
half of the Soldiers Home ice supply,
and the Nelson, ice company itself, will
join in the expense of a new dam, it is
well for the city to erect one and take
no chances Of jeopardizing the supply
of water in the city wells MARSHALL
town has such an excellent water sup
ply now that it can afford to surround
it with every form of protection inn
aginable. III
