In speech at the jamestown Expo-
sition recently President Roosevelt
said: ''Since l have been President |
have visited every state and territory
within the borders of the Union, save
such as can only be reached by sea.
have travelled from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, from the Great Lakes to the
Gulf. have spoken at country fairs,
to colleges, to commercial and business
organizations, to associations of pro-
fessional men, TO labor organizations, to
men OF every creed and parentage.
The thing that has struck me most has
been the essential oneness, the essential
unity OF our people. In the fundament-
ais l have found American citizens to
be just about the same everywhere. In
whatever locality of the country we
live, whatever our fortune or occupa-
patton in life, there exist just about the
same essential gooG qualities and much
the same shortcomings in any gather
ing of our citizens. OF course, each
community has its especial temptations,
its especial shortcomings; and II it is
wise each community will try to cure
itself rather than to cause heartburn
ings by railing at the shortcomings of
a sister community. There is ample
field for the reform energies OF every
one OF US in his or her particular sphere
of home and neighborhood activity.
Not only is all of this true as between
one community and another, but it is
just as true between one class of our
citizens and another. Now and then
we meet well-meaning people who have
genuine horror and dread OF all rich
men and think of them as being set
apart by peculiar vice and iniquity.
Now and then we meet equally we'll
meaning rich men who have an equally
Irrational dread OF those whom they
style "labor leaders," In each case |
think the hostility is in large part due
to want OF sympathy caused by COM
plete ignorance OF the men who arouse
such distrust or anger. AS matter
of fact, II we take given number OF
men of large fortune and like num-
ber Of wage-workers, we find that in
their essential human nature they are
all alike. In each group we find men as
wise and foolish, as good and as bad as
In the other group. Such being the
case 1t is well that, so far as possible,
when the men OF q given group, as
q whole, act In way that we deem
contrary to the public interest, we
should treat the action as wrong TO be
remedied rather than as wrong to be
avenged"

Three million dollars on hand from
the appropriation made by the legis-
lature in 1905 for the improvements
of the roads in Pennsylvania, and six
million more appropriated by the last
legislature. making nine millions In all,
made it look as If there would be big
improvements on the public highways
this year and next, but Gov. Stuart has
changed the aspect greatly by cut
ting five million off the six million
appropriated during the last session,
leaving but four million, instead of nine
million, available for the next two
years. This will most likely delay the
public road Improvements in Winslow

AN OLD IDEA.
Shown to Be Absolutely False by Mod
ern Science.

Shown to Be Absolutely False by Mod
ern Science.
People used to think that badness
was of those things which are
handed down from generation to gen
GRAFTON, from father to son-just like
a family heirloom.
Science has shown the f%alseness of
this belief by proving that badness it
self is not a constitutional disease, but
the result of a germ invasion Of which
only Herpicide can effectually rid the
scalp.
Washing only cleans the scalp of
Dandruff; it doesn't kill the germs.
Destroy the cause, you remove the
effect"
Newbro's Herpicide will do this in
every case. 1t is also a delightful
dressing.

Lepley, of Clifford, last July, will not

the district court this morning, sus-
tanned the motion of PelIs attorney for
a continuance of the case until the next

thai important witnesses needed by 1t
were out of the city and could not be
found on such short notice.
The motion to quash the Indictment
returned against James Cannon, OF st.
Anthony, was ovefruled by Judge
Parker this morning. Cannon was In
dicted for assault with intent to COM
nit rape.

Mr.. McMillan's death was due to

and was, a former prominent citizen OF

TEMPERATuRE BELOW FREEZING
Aamaae, the Extent of Which Can
Only Be Estimated, Is Done to Corn
Tender Vegetables Killed and Thin
Ice is Formed - Heaviest in Low
lands.

The second frost, and the first Kill
ing one of the season, spread over TINS
c;tv and central Iowa Tuesday night,
doing damage that can only be esti-
mated. A certain part of the corn
crop was caught ~unprepared. and ten
der vegetables and Vegetation not I'M
mune to frost, were killed. The tenn
nerature dropped below freezing, coat
ing unprotected small bodies of water
with a thin layer Of ice.
The temperature establishes a new
early low mark, for it is the lowest
point reached at this time Of the sea
son during the past four years. Ihe
maximum temperature for Tuesday
was only SO, and the minimum was
twenty-nine degrees lower. AT 6:So
o'clock this morning the temperature
was 81.
No accurate estimate of the damage
done to corn is possible. as n
from different parts of the county are
widely at variance. In some LOCALITIES
the damage is said to be very slight
while in others it is heavier. In low
ground the freeze was more severe
than in higher attitudes, and In the
lowlands the greatest damage to corn
was done. Unripe corn, due to re-
planting, late planting or retardlng OF
growth because of h backward n
wet weeks of the early planting sea-
son, was frost bitten. A large part OF
the corn, however, is thought to have
been out of the way Of danger from
frost and was not damaged.

Mayor lngledue's appointment of DR..
Getz last spring was done to give the
doctor d new start at a time when ne

WIVES OUTWIT PREACHERS.
Ministers of the City, AiI-Wise, Are
Fooled by Better Halves,

On Monday afternoon, at the Stod-
dart, the ministers of the city took a
late dinner, following a meeting of the
pastors association. These all-wise
men of the cloth had expected to sur
prise their wives, who, it was learned,
We're planning to dine at the hotel In
hoonr of some of the new pastors
wives who are in the city. The preach
ers thought it a very clever act to Up
pear for dime at the same hour, so
engaged places at the tables suppos-
eddy to be occupied by their wives.
The preachers appeared, but there
were no wives. They waited until
1870, still no wives came, Rev. G. w.
| McCord was delegated to play Sher-
lock Holmes, and ascertain the cause
Of delay or non-appearance, as the
case might be Finally the ministers
were given to understand by the hotel
management that unless they wanted a
cold hand-out at the back door they
would have to eat and get it over with.
The result was they dined alone.
1t appears that the women were the
| winners in the battle of wits. They
smelled a mouse, as women will, and,
instead of carrying out their plans,
postponed the affair for their guests
| another day. Tuesday afternoon they
met, without the preachers being pres
ent, and enjoyed a dinner at the Stod-
dart in honor of Mrs. A. A. Couser,
wife Of the pastor of the First United
Evangelical: Mrs. P. Fl. Hines, Wife OF
the State street Evangelical pastor, n
a bride of only a few months; n
Mrs G. H. Morris, wife of the new

he is not ashamed of, even tho the
season is an off one, and against the
maturing of a record breaking crop.
Mr.. Hicks is a farmer who believes in
planting good seed. and as a result
tested his seed corn, which showed a
termination of 95 per cent. He plant
ed Reds Yellow Dent, and while not
having a full stand, picked promiscu-
ously Tuesday afternoon several ears
that are as large n well matured as
have been seer this season. Practically
all of his crop was out of the way Of
the killing frost of Tuesday night, the
only milk shown being just at the tip
Of the kernel next to the cob.a The
corn will yield about sixty bushels to
the acre.
