Mrs. E. N. Ranney of Riceville has
been awarded first prize in contest
conducted by the Drover's Journal of
Chicago. The contest was for the
three best articles answering the
question: ''HOw should the hired

because she hit the nail on the head
in very few words. Her article is
as follows:

Norfolk. is located on the shores and
waters of Hampton Roads. whose fine

The local committee which has

ests, received word the first of the
week that one surveying party had be-
gun on final survey from Minnea.
polls to Owatonna and another was
working south from Owatonna They
are expected to be in this vicinity in
about two weeks. and the committee
was instructed TO order one thousand
grade stakes and have them ready for
use when the party arrives.
1t seems that change of route has
been determined upon and instead of
going to Granger it will pass through
Bonair and Lime Springs. This
decision was reached after the right
OF way had been secured to Granger
and it becomes necessary for the local
committee to secure a new route to
Lime Springs. They are at work now
and have over half the right of way
secured already.
From the south comes the report
that a surveying party is working
out of Dubuque and will work north
till it meets the Owatonna party.
The work seems to be- on in earnest
aud every day brings some new de.
velopments that point to an early
completion of the road. Times.

Iowa's new primary law presents
some perplexing problems that may
prove serious in the next presidential
election. 1t has been suggested that
a suitable prize be offered 20 the
politician who succeeds in solving
the Iowa primary riddle. Here are
some of the conundrums for Iowa
politicians of both parties to juggle
with the coming year of political
quietness.
How are delegates to the national
convention to be chosen! Not word
is said about them in the new pri-
mary.
How are the presidential electors
chosen in advance of the national con
ventions to be bound to support their
party nominees? The primary law is
silent on the subject.
What issue will there be between
rival candidates for nomination as
presidential electors?
What convention shall determine
"the party PLATFORM The primary
law provides that district conventions
"may" and state conventions "shall'
adopt party platforms.
Is the provision for district party
platforms intended to give legal
authority for as many "party plat
forms" as there are districts in the
state? For instance, could the repub-
licans of the eleventh district declare
for tariff revision and those of the
first district defend the present sched.
ules? How could a state committee
conduct such campaign in Iowa?
May state conventions in presiden.
tial years adopt party platforms in ad-
vance of the declaration of national
conventions? The latest date under the
primary law for the state conventions
next year is earlier than the last three
democratic national conventions have
been held.
The dates set by the new primary
law for the district and state conven.
tion also present another complication
for the politicians of the state. If the
national conventions are called next
year at their customary time. it will
be impossible for. either the republi.
cans or democrats of Iowa to name
their national delegates at the district
or state conventions provided by the
primary law. District conventions,
according to the new law, cannot be
held next year earlier than June 25,
nor later than July %, and state con-
ventions must be called between June
l8 and July 2. The following dates
of the republican and democratic
national conventions for the last three
campaigns show that the Iowa dele
gates will have to be elected earlier
than the convention dates of the
primary law: 1896, republican. June
1; democratic, July 4; 1900. re-
publican, June 10, democratic, July
T.; 1904, republican, June 81. demo-
cratic, July 5.-Riceville Recorder.

A medical journal says: Medically,
the internal use Of water does more
good than its external use. The man
who drinks from pint to quart Of
clean. pure water the first thing in
the morning on getting out of bed,
will be in better health than the man
who uses water only externally and
rarely drinks water straight. The
best way to do is to take clean water
bath both inside and outside every
morning. and during the warm
weather every evening also. It will
bring sleep more effectually than all
the morphine or other drugs. It will
