and all the rest of us were half-re-
publicans, we who had listened many
a time to the boasts of these very men
and their sarcastic illusions to the
loneliness of spring. Now the tables
are turned. the laugh is on the other
fellows, and how bravely and courage-
ously they take their defeat! II makes
a man tired All the world hates a
wilmer and we have the biggest coll
lection of them In Iowa ever exhibited
under one tent. And the joke is that
the men who are doing this whining
today are the very men who won In
other campaigns, and so winning had
no hestancy about rubbing it In to
the other fellow" and assuring him as
they washed his wounds with salt that
spring was delightful and a lovely
season.
But we have digrcssed from Jarna-
gin. Jarnagin is all right and good
fellow He has held several offices in
his lifetime and Is rather q curiosity in
one way. In that he actually resigned
a very good office. Ii we are not mis-
taken, he resigned as postmas { at
Montezuma to go to Cedar Falls. Jar
nagln is comparatively a new man in
Black Hawk county. He went there
and chose his position. He stood pat
and with the standpatters stood. Web,
this happens to be bad year for
standpatters in Black Hawk county
and Jarnagin gets left. The other
crowd has the say and dominates one
of it's own men for representative.
What is there wrong or unnatural
about that? Isn't 1t human nature?
They are not sending Cummins men to
the legislature from Des Moines county
are they? What childlishness to talk
about Strengthening" Jarnagin! In
stead of being big, manly fellows and
full grown politicians, this crowd acts
like lot of babies who have had their
rattles taken away from them
Unless we are greatly mistaken in
the man Jarnagin will not whine, He
may feel sore, but the world will never
know it. He will just grit his teeth
and await his opportunity. There win
be other scraps inside the party lines
and Jarnagin may take few scalps
yet.
Inside the party lines remember.
Not when engaged in battle with the
common enemy. Not there, we hope,
for Jarnagln.

Chris Adolphson had an unusual oc-
currence on his farm. Last spring a
hen stole a nest" and about March
came off with dozen chickens. The
hens of the family commenced laying
in June, the eggs being about the size
of those from a guinea. Last week one
of the hens Matched out in March came
off with a brood of chickens from her
own eggs. This family of chickens is
about the most prolific reproducers OF
anything of which we have ever heard,
and should the matter be brought to
the attention of President Roosevelt il
is likely that he would cease holding
up the Belgian hare as the ideal of
American citizenship. Chris also has
wild goose, captured in the spring on
mis- place. Its wings are clipped, but
the bird is now thoroughly domesticat-
ed and associates freely with the do
nestle geese.

MONEY IN FARMS.
TDavenport Times,1

AS it comes to be more and more
understood that there is money in the
right. kind of management of farms
two tendencies will become apparent.
The farms near the market centers
will become smaller and the crops
more specialized. Farms remote from
the large cities will become larger. In
charge of them will be found men of
special training and marked executive
ability. The small farmer who has
been merely content to get a living
from his land will gradually go over
to the man with large capital with
genius for directing farming opera
tons. In other words the same ten
1ency which long ago became mani
fest in other industries will become
manifest in farming. .
Already in the great west and
northwest large plantations where
Wheat and livestock are produced on
large scale have been established.
md it is the opinion of men in agri
cultural colleges, who have been
Watching the tendencies of the times,
hat this change in farming conditions
IS sure to come. When on the farm
he same care for details is developed
IS has made successful the packing
industry, for instance, where it is said
,nly the hogs squeal is not utilized,
are which presupposes an executive
administration separate from the per-
'ofmance of the actual labor SO that
/ will be in a position to criticise and
lirect-when such care for details is
developed, farming will become even
more profitable than it is today. If the
endency of the time is too Large may
lot be a pleasing thought that opera
ions in farming, but unless the
economic movement has its exceptions.
he time will surely come when farm
rs with conspicuous executive ability
will realize that, if they can make
money off a few hundred acres, they
can make more money by directing
he opera tons on thousand acres.

The Glldden Graphic sees mo occa :
sion for surrender of honest conv'c-
lions among Iowa republicans. The
only matter about which there should
be question is the regularity of the
nomination of Cummins. Was he
fairly nominated?" asks the Graphic,
IF so, then he should be supported by
republicans; If not. then he should be
defeated. The question of Mr.. Blythe's
pertdy or motives l!s not now an Is
sue. That was settled so far as this
campaign Is concerned in the state
convention. The progresstves have not
changed their faith on the wisdom of
making changes in tariff schedules.
But they have yielded a point in defer
ence to the national campaign mana
gers. They are republicans and as
such are willing to submit TO reason
able party regulations Nothing more
is asked or required of any republican
at this time"
The Ocheydan Press favors two
terms for county officers. II would
like to see both parties adopt res
olution to this effect and stick to It,
and should be turned over to others at
the end OF four years. The work in
none of the offices requires an expert
and there are scores of men perfectly
competent to give satisfactory SER
vice. OF course, both parties should
favor this rule before it is put in effect
by either"
The Ackley Inter County Journal
has concluded that "the moral sense
of communities where the liquor traffic
is tolerated is deadened, and the in
fluence is such that compromises are
made with the authorities by which
many violations are permitted on the
false promises of the saloon keepers
to obey the law in few particulars.
The Denson Review, friendly to Mr..
Perkins regrets his present course, II
is so unlike the Perkins of the old
days, but we can never forget the
great debt the republican party owes
him for his helpfulness in other years,
the strong, upbuilding factor that he
the strong, upbuilding factor he has
been to the press of Iowa and the good
he has accomplished for western Iowa
in particular. Here's to Uncle George,

heart be healed, his wounds grow
scarless and may he once more resume
his place as the very head of Iowa
journalism"

WHAT WoMEN's CLUBS DO,

In Radcliffe as many towns of its

while they are criticised by some, they
are certainly beneficial in many ways.
In small towns and villages the clup
has been special providence TO many
a weary mother or to the women of
few early advantages and large aspir-
ations. In our great cities women's
clubs have been the first to institute
social reforms and to call public at
tention to crying evils. They have
controlled superficial and selfish social
customs until such customs have be-
come obsolete. In home government
and the training 'of children they long
ago struck the Keynote of a grand
choral of reform which will become
more and more harmonious as the
years roll by. Out of the selfish ego
they have evolved the progressive

weak hands with the combined power
of twenty or n hundred; they have
taken a dull uncut gem of thought and

LAST DAYS N THE.
old ONTARIO
STORE
R. B. Griffith Tells Of % Years
Of Constant Growth of De-
partment Store.

q Only two more days of business in
the old Ontario" said R. B. Griffith
this morning to an Evening Times
man." and yet it Is not all regret at
leaving the old for the new. To be
sure there are memories associated
with the old building which makes one
regret, but we have been changing it
SO often that we are all accustomed to
1t. About every two years until six
years ago we made important changes
SO that 1t is hard to say Just where
the old store leaves of and the later
additions begin.
II came to Grand Forks in 1881 and
started a store in a building next
door to the Union hotel. In 1883 1
leased the old store on the corner Of
Third and DeMers. The building was
erected in 1879 and store was kept
there by Veits & Twamley. James
Twamley bought Veits out and finally
sold the store and moved out of the
building. leased it and moved my
goods there. The building was 5Ox6O.
with two store rooms. kept grocer
les in one and dry goods and shoes in
the other.
1.-THE building faced on Third street
and had shed In the rear which was
used for a stock room and barn. In
1887 tore out this shed and put in an
addition facing on DeMers avenue,
with an entrance on the avenue. In
1884 ] had cut an archway and con-
nected the two store rooms and now
tore out all of the partitions and made
one room of the entire store. In 1889
bought the lot north of the store on
Third street and erected a building
26x140 feet, with an archway into the
old store room. In 1892 l bought the
old Collins & Murphy building joining
the store on DeMers and put up a
brick building. filling out the building
SO that l now had 75x14O feet. In
1896 remodelled the entire building,
covering it with steel, putting on the
cupalo, finishing the old building as it
stands today and remodeled and occl-
pied the second floor. 1t is this buili-
ing which is to be replaced with the
new four story building. Shortly be-
fore this time bought the old corner
property.
I'm 1897 bought out the Iddings
, book store, the Ephriam clothing store
being between. n 1900 bought out
Ephriam and also bought the Iddings
and occupied the north store

USED store. l connected
all OF the 1lAwith archways
and the store J! he'd much the
same from that day -, facing $50
feet on Third street and 40 feet on
DeMers avenue.
AS soon as the new building Is
completed we will tear out the parti-
tons in the Iddings block and make it
into a clothing department, 50x1OO
feet, giving us fine location. The
department in the Kruger building will
be for groceries. The arrangement of
the departments in the new building
are not entirely decided upon"
The story told by Mr.. Griffith of the
beginning and development of his bust
ness was as interesting as the page
from romance. Little by little, step
by step, he has built up the largest
! retail business in the state; not by
any sudden or brilliant speculation,

but by careful attention to detail and
superior business methods has he
achieved his success. Mr.. Griffith is
not a man to mourn over the past
and while he regrets leaving the old
building In which he has won success
and faced breakers and threatened re-
verses, he welcomes the new building
with Its conveniences and facilities
for yet greater business success.
