No Attempt Made to Overcome
Sentiment, and Head Officers
Are Elected For First Time
MISS LAKE is THE NEW REGENT
independence Wowan Heads orsaniza-
ton, With Mrs. Merritt Greene, Of
This City, as Vice Resent-Mrs.
Bushnell, of Council Bluffs, Recon-
mended as Iowa Vice President.

The Direct vote proposition, before
the Iowa conference of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, had clear
sailing when the final test came, ana
the sentiment was so overwhelmingly
in favor of change in the former
procedure of elections that no effort
was made by the faction that has
domineered in preceding conferences to
continue the old rule in vogue.
The method has heretofore been that
the Iowa conference would send rec
concentrations to the continental con-
gress, for regent and vice regent, and
the national body would then formal
/ ly elect the officers. A change has
been desired for several years, but
never until this year has the sentiment
been so outspoken in favor of the con-
ference itself doing the electing, and
on Friday afternoon the Iowa confer
ence elected for the first time in his
| tory, it's regent and vice regent.
Miss Harriet Lake, Of independence,
was chosen as regent, and for this Of
fee the only contest was Waged. Miss
Lakes choice was by wide margin. as
she received twenty-five of the forty
nine votes cast. Mrs. James Walter
Heustis, of Dubuque, received fifteen
votes, and Mrs. John G. Lopez, of Des
Moines, retiring vice regent, nine. The
other officers chosen were as fol-
lows:
vice Regent-Mrs. Merritt Greene,
Marshalltown.
secretary-Mrs. Ella r. Hardin.
Ames. Y.
Treasurer-Mrs Emma Goodwin
Bohn, Dubuque
Historian--Mrs. Charles B. Hepler,
Fort Dodge.
Registrar-Mrs. E. c. Musgrave. Des
Moines. :,
Mrs. D. w Bushnell, Of Council
Bluffs, present vice president general
from Iowa, was recommended to the
continental congress as her own sue
cessor. The names Of the regent and
vice regent elected here will be sent to
the continental congress for ratification
and will be acted upon at its next ses-
sion, in April.
The eighth annual conference was
brought to a close at the Greene home
late Friday afternoon, and many OF the
delegates left for their homes on the
evening trains.

FIRE DESTROYS HOME.
Shepard Street Property Badly Dam
AGED hx Flames.

Shepard Street Property Badly DAM
aged by Flames.
Fire, the origin of which is mys-
terry, badly damaged the home OF
Sampson Davis, COS Shepard street, at
about s o'clock Friday night. The
alarm was the third in a little more
than twenty-four hourus, and proved
the most serious of the three.
The building was owned by Joseph
White, 701 South Sixth street, but it
was occupied by his father-in-law.
Sampson Davis. The damage to the
house is estimated at 500, with in
surance of half that amount. The
contents were the property of Davis,
and all except a small part that were
got out, were destroyed. They were
uninsured.
There is no way of ascertaining how
the fire started, as members Of the
family We're not at home, They de-
clare there was no fire in the house
when they left it. The flames We're
first seen issuing from the roof, and
because of the great distance the de-
partment had to go, the fire had a
good start before 1t arrived.

Local Comment

With Mayor Ingledue and Supervis-
or Jones to fall back on there is
scarcely any danger of the newspapers
being without any thing to print dur
ing dull season.
These sudden drops in temperature
are enough to make the coal man good
natured and the ice man sulk. One day
the prudent housewife is ordering q
supply of ice to prevent the milk sour
ing and the butter melting; the next
she is hurrying up that neglected load
Of coal to get the furnace going. It's
case Of linen busters one day and
heavy overcoats the next.

Between the new Iowa law delegatlng
additional powers to mayors, and
Councilman Herman's personal dislike
for Frank Pierce, the League of Iowa
Municipalities was threatened for a
time to be the loser at the recent meet
ing of the city council. AS Mr.. Pierce,
rs secretary, is the dominating figure
in the league, a majority OF the
council saw good chance to express
dislike by refusing to vote the city's
$40 membership assessment. The time
of fifteen men was occupied for over
an hour listening to a "discussion" of
the why's and wherefores of the bene-
fits of the league, whether there were
really benefits in belonging; and II II
were not really gigantic political ma
chine, ct al Finally an olive branch
was gently waived in motion to de-
fer, and the whole matter will likely
be threshed out at another meeting. AS
Mayor Ingledue was elected trustee
of the league at it's last convention ne
is involved in that he wants his city
to remain member.
y
The Importance of the recent milk
inspection ordinance, adopted by the
city council upon being prepared and
presented by the two physician MEM
bers, can not be overestimated. Those
who know and realize some OF the
existing conditions fairly shudder at
the thought of either drinking milk or
eating it's products, or even consum-
ing anything but inspected meats
again. Take one instance as an illus
tration, and it is only one OF several
that could be cited. A dairyman, fur
nishing an exceedingly large number
of customers, took ten Of his cows
worn out mixers, to the packing
house, to be butchered for beef The
rigid government inspection discov-
cred seven of the ten infected with
tuberculosis. They We're condemned,
but as mixers their product had been
consumed in MarshalltoWn and the
germs spread broadcast The dairy
man was innocent enough, for he had
had his cows tested five years ago,
and then they We're free from disease.
There had been no inspection since.
and some of the herd had, in the
meantime, become infected. Very
properly he had the remainder of the
herd inspected. and found several
more head that were even then good
mixers. which We're infected With

the tuberculor bacillus. He had them
packing house We're condemned ana
burned.
With the new ordinance it will be
practically impossible for such con-
ditions to exist. At any rate the dan
ger will be minimized. There will be
an inspection once a year. and that
is declared to be often enough. The
public health, at any rate, will be safe
guarded as carefully as is possible.
No one would even think of
drinking water where it was Thought
there was danger of some terrible
disease being contracted, and city
council would be criminally negligent
if it did not provide means to make
the supply pure. Even more danger
Is known to Turk in the milk supplies.
One physician member on the council
in the city that had been inoculated
with tuberculosis solely thru the milk
with which it was fed.
The next step of Importance in this
direction will be the ordinance prohlb-
iting nothing but government inspected
meats to be sold within the city. Had
these seven COWS referred to been sold
to some butcher, rather than the pack
ing house, there is no telling now
many tables in the city would have
been supplied with meat infected with
tuberculosis 1t was not long ago that
farmer, possibly well-meanins
enough, brought to the packing house
a number of his herd of hogs. They
were inspected and found to be suf-
fering from the preliminary stages OF
cholera. They were condemned. and
the carcasses destroyed. little later
this same farmer had an epidemic OF
cholera in his herd and lost many heaa.
What would have happened had TINS
same farmer sold his hogs to butcher
who did not care whether or not ne
sold inspected meats? A common
slaughtering place, where every animal
killed must pass inspection, is surely
coming in MarshalltoWn.

While Wrecking Home.
Bespattered with blood, while she
flourished a bloody stained revolver,
Mrs. Wolcott, woman of middle age,
was arrested by the police while in
the act of wrecking her home, 40
South First street, late last night. APP
parently insane Mrs. Wolcott had
broken the furniture and smashed out
the window panes when the police ar
rived. In breaking the glass she had
cut and scratched her hands and arms
and much of the blood had been trans
ferred to her face and clothing. None
of the cuts We're serious. The noise
of the breaking glass attracted the
neighbors, who summoned the police.
Desk Sergeant Goodale and Officer
Breckel responded, and the woman
was taken to Jail.
This morning she refused to appear
in police court unless she was fur
nished with sunbonnet and apron
and ner hearing was postponed until
Monday morning.

For the Woman That's Fat.

A Detroit physician says that the
cheapest and safest mixture fat wom-
an who wants to get thin can use is
one-haf ounce Marmola (get it in the
original half-ounce package), one-half
ounce Fluid Extract Cascara Aromatic
and three and one-haf ounces Syrup
Simplex. The proper amount to take
is teaspoonful after meals and at
bedtime.
These ingredients may be obtained
from any druggist at small cost and
make a combination that is not only
excellent as fat reducer, being able,
it is claimed to take off pound a
day without causing wrinkles, but is
also a splendid help to the system as
whole, regulating the stomach and
bowels (where the fat persons trou-
bles begin), and clearing the skin of
pimples and blotches. No exercise Is
required to help the remedy in its work
and, best Of all, no dieting is necessary
while taking it-you can eat what you
like.

Badness Due to Living Minute
Germ.
Many people, even unto the present
day of grace, consider badness due to
hereditary influence.
Nothing is further from the truth
Badness is caused by the onslaught OF
minute organism which secretes it
self beneath the scalp and attacks the
roots of the hair-causing it to lose
it's life and fall out.
This organism cannot be got rid OF
except by the free and persevering use
of Newbro's Herpicide.
No matter how badly the scalp is
effected the Dandruff surely disappears
and hair health is restored when Her
picide is applied.
Destroy the cause you remove the

LOOKS REASONABLE
Sinclair Explains How and Why They
Are Able to Give Expensive Prem :
iums With Their Goods a sues-
ton Of Discounts.

Are Ado W WV
iums With Their Goods - A CUES
ton Of Discounts.
One of the questions often asked
az orr Store. is how can we afford to
give premiums that in some cases az
most equal the cost Of the same class
Of goods at other stores. At hrst
thought it seems impossible, yet we do
not lose money by it, and we are stu
able to give better value, say nothing
Of the premium, we believe than IS
usually obtained elsewhere. The oo-
iect, of course, is to draw trade. py
one customer showing her premium 10
another and thus forming an endless
chain of customers. 1t is this large
volume Of business that enables US to
do this. We are able to buy all OF our
premiums as we'll as our teas and COZ
fees on import orders. making large
saving both on cost and Irelgnl
charges. Then one Of our specialtles is
blending coffees. We buy the green
coffee, do our own blending and thus
save the profit paid to the expert
blender. The savings thus effected Of
ten equal more than the cost OF the
premiums and while the margin may
be somewhat smaller our profits come
in the increased volume of business.
We believe that we can give the best
value in teas, coffees, etc, in town,
and still give the premium. These
premiums are just as genuine as the
most expensive pieces Of china in any
store, and we are always glad to have
the fullest investigation. We guar
antee that the premium costs the GUS
toner nothing. SINCLAIR'S.
