ment? The election is several months
away vet but is hourly drawing closer.
A curious contingency has arisen. The
can be interested as stakeholder or
otherwise In any corporation or COM
pariy forming contract with the city
or holding franchise or permit from
the city. It is suddenly discovered
that years ago when these public serv-
ice computations started to do BUSH
ness in Des Moines, they distributed
small amounts of stock gratis to some
Of the influential men. Others sold
small holdings. In this way nearly
every big man in town it is estimated
is the holder of little stock in some
company or other. None Of these
can hold the office of commissioner
unless they get rid of their stock and
the corporations may cause them
some trouble In getting rid of their
stock. Some Of this stock has been
stored away and forgotten. Here
tofore the stock has never biased
these men because it was in small
amounts. No one knows how much
there Is of It. There may not be as
much as some think. But at any rate
1t il believed that some of the men
who are wanted for commissioner may
have to part with some small holdings
of corporation stock in order to be
legally entitled to the position.
For the first 1t is anticipated that
there will be little difficulty in getting
good men for the positions. J. G..
Olmsted recently said there was no
office for which he would be candi
date and there was no office, but he
would consider 1t his patriotic duty
to accept if the people elected him to
1t. Other prominent men are now TAX
ing this same position and it Is be-
lieved fve good commissioners can
be found.
Editor ]. w. Jarnigan, OF the Cedar
Falls Daily Record, has given notice
that he will contest the new Iowa anti
pass law which makes it a crime after
July to ride on street cars upon trans
portation given for anything except
cash. He has refused to surrender the
street car book he received for adver-
Using. and has notified the street car
company at Waterloo that he proposes
to keep his transportation until Janu-
ary !, when his contract expires.
The editor says the Iowa constitu-
ton, in section 81, declared that no law
impairing the obligation Of a contract
shall ever be passed. Every newspa-
per man in Iowa is watching the out
come of the case.
Congressman Birdsall, in the third,
is due for race Already the stand
patters have brought out Burton f.

Waterloo, Is also prospective candi-
date.

to Times-Republlcan.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. July 3.-There Is quite
an interesting story In the shutting
down of the electric light plant at FL
don. The mayor of Eldon shut down
the municipal plant because the anti
saloon league shut down the saloons,
which were running in violation of law
and the league shut down the saloons
because the saloons were fighting the
revival meetings.
The story started some time ago.
An evangelist by the name of w. E.
Barrett opened meetings In tent on
land belonging to the Catholic church.
Soon after the proposition of holding a
carnival was advanced. The people IN
charge Of the revival meetings object
ed to a carnival at that time on the
ground that 1t would interfere with
their revival. The mayor and some
others persisted and the church people
circulated a petition which, they clam.
developed the fact that the majority OF
the business men did not want the car
nival. But the carnival was held just
the same, and the church people claim
it was poorly attended and was 4 fail
ure
All the time the revival meetings
kept in progress with good results, and
then the Catholics were induced TO Dust
the protestants from their land. The
tent was moved with only inconven-
fence as the principal feature. It was
moved to grove in the edge OF town.
Then the mayor refused to extend
electric lights to the tent The revivals
progressed, however, tho attended with
opposition.
Becoming convinced that the sa-
looms were the chief factors working
against the revivals, the church peo-
pie called on the anti-saloon league to
help them. The league came, and soon
discovered that the saloons, three in
number, were not paying the mulct
tax They were paying a tax on. their
property of $500 a year each. Wapello
county is not saloon county There
has no petition Of consent ever. been
circulated to allow saloons in towns of
less than 5000. Eldon has but 1850.
The saloons were therefore closed in
short order, and the municipal electric
light plant closed with them. Eldon is
dark and dry. More dry perhaps than
dark for the people manage to worry
along with kerosene lamps, and are
wMdering what the next move will be-.
They generally believe, tho, that the
next move belongs to the mayor and
saloonkeepers.

Part 81 the letter We Read.

'.Did You ever think, said an old
printer, sstilat we really notice only the
upper halves Of the letters The lowez.
halves are in many cases only the
stems, the remainders of ornamental
f1ourishes which have been gradually
reduced in size and length and are now
meaningless. Take, for instance, the
heading Of a paper. Cover up with q
blank sheet the lower half Of the LEFT
tiers, and. even If you did not know
what they were you would have no diff
fcuIty In reading the words. Now, re-
verse the process and cover the upper
half, and IL you did not know the words
it would be impossible to make out the
letters. This fact Is even more plainly
seen in the, case OF the Roman letters
used for headlines. An I might be
mistaken for an I, but nearly all the
other letters are so plainly indicated
by the shape Of the upper half that the
lines may be read without difficulty

he was not legal resident of the

not need timepiece.
The first whistle is followed by the

after that time any one connected with
the show can tell just what acts are
on, even if outside Of the tent The
band is the timepiece with a circus.
Any employee can tell what is going
on by the tune the band is playing.
The band leader knows just what Is re-
quired when he arranges the music,
and it is unusual FOR any changes
whatsoever to be made. The grand
Introductory pageant requires a certain
kind Of music. The high school horses

IT GOES in ST. PAUL
ST. PAUL SALooNkEEPERS TOO
EAGER TO WIPE ACCOUNT
OFF THE SLATE.

: That Mandan's fair is being widely
advertised the following local news
from a St. Paul paper goes to show:
Clement Cardinal was in police
court today charged with larceny, and
as a result of the trouble which landed
him there Lund e Hamerson, saloon
keepers on Mississippi street, will
in the future carefully examine all
money which is offered over their bar.
According to this story of the sa-
loon men, Cardinal entered their place
yesterday afternoon ostensibly to pay
little beer account of Is cents which
he owed. He rendered a paper bill,
and, as the mark $40 was prominent
on it's face, Clement was returned
$685. in change and the 15-cent &C.
count was wiped off the slate.
But later on this paper bill was ex-
amined more closely and, to the con-
sternation of the saloon men, they
learned that it would hardly pass mus
ter at a bank.
"'Stung,' they cried in unison as
both men started for the door to call
a policeman. s..
"The paper bill is an interesting
document in view of its history. On
one side it purports to be "a $40 bill
Of the Confederate States of America
which went out Of existence some
thing more than forty years ago, and
on this other side is printed an ad
vertisement for a bull fight at Man
