Weather and Crop Bulletin.


Des Moines. Iowa, Aug. "a, 1908. -
The past week was considerably cooler
than usual. the average daily deficiency
in temperature being from six to eight
degrees. The days were quite warm
and bright, making ideal conditions for
farm work, but the nights were too
cool for maturing the belated corn. A
few scattered light showers occurred
over the western and southern districts,
but over large part of the state little
or no rain fell. Corn is in healthy
condition and making as good growth
as could be expected with the cool
nights. Reports Indicate that with
normal weather about IS per cent of
the crop will be safe from the effects
of killing frost by September Is, 62
per cent by September 25, and S5 per
cent by October l. With favorable
weather conditions up to October Is,
from 80 to 95 per cent of the crop will
mature, but under the best of condi-
tions there will be considerable soft
corn.
Pastures are in excellent condition,
and the aftermath in meadows is grow
ing rapidly. Clover promises a good
crop of seed, and the yield of timothy
seed will be fully up to the average.

Cresco Rodents Slaughtered.

Last Friday was great day. Check
it off in your book and date from it all
minor happenings of household interest.
For on that day the Court House Rats
defeated the Howard County Rodents
in game of base ball that for sensa-
tional pitching, magnificent batting,
hair-raising stops and thrilling fielding
set a new record for all comers.
At last Decorah beat something in
ball game, hence the delirious Joy of
the scribe. 1t was better than free
pass to the Olympic games and the
memory of it will abide with us ever
safely written in the catalog of things
one never forgets.
The visitors had an ex-leaguer in the
box and when he began to wind up like
real university man timid squeaks of
fright came from the Rats. But the
fellow who was false alarm and easy
to hit. Strand went into the box for
the Rats and for few innings gave a
good imitation of Ed. Walsh. In the
third inning he trod the path that leads
to obstruction hand in hand with the
Cresco twirler. 1t was pathetic and
the fusilade of base hits finally died
away the scorers sent up town for new
adding machines. During the rest the
rest the weary base runners and the
outfield chasers were rubbed down with
Doan's Ointment, and Sid Brickner was
given sub-cutaneous injection of DR..

up in citizens clothes and allowed to

three in order to sort'er get next tn the

Those who heard Mr.. Bryan's lecture

notably why Shouldn't Miracles Be

and may be heard by admirers of Mr..
Bryan at Geo. Kellogg's music store.

An Infamous Proposition.

Governor Cummins has called a
special session of the general assembly
to amend the primary law to provide
for the selection of candidates for SEN
ator to fill vacancies occasioned by
death after the regular primaries are
held, the death of Allison furnishing
the excuse. The session is called for
Aug. 3lst and will be asked to pass an
amendment to the primary law which
is one of the most infamous political
schemes ever proposed and is direct
attempt to legislate the republican
party of Iowa into power. 1t shows
the depth of despair into which the
republicans of Iowa have fallen and
that they are willing to throttle the
freedom of the ballot to accomplish
their ends.
The amendment proposes that on the
regular official ballot there shall be
printed Underneath the republican
ticket in this instance) the names of
candidates for the senatorship, and
that unless the straight republican
ticket is voted, no votes for senate
shall be counted. This means that a
republican who wishes to vote for sena-
tor and for single man on any other
ticket is disfranchised, for he can not
vote for democrat and have his vote
for senator counted.
1t is class legislation of the most
pronounced type and the people of
Iowa, democrats, prohibitionists, social
lists and all others, will be compelled to
foot the expense of a special session of
the legislature to either help the repub-
licans out of hole or put them in one,
depending upon the temper of the peo-
pie when they fully understand the
iniquities of this bare faced attempt to
coerce the voters of the state under
penalty of disfranchisement in the
event of their voting anything but the
straight ticket.
In addition to the primary law
amendment it is also proposed to re-
store the circle to the baliot-the taking
off of which was done in a fit of tenn
porary fairness by the republican poll
ticians of the state.
1t is understood that the democrats
will propose an amendment providing
that the choice for senator be binding
upon the state, as in Oregon, where
democrat has been recently elected
senator over the republican candidate,
and with the choice of a republican
assembly.

everyone is invited. Given by the

al elements are unusually strong and
the company is said to bring out all the
fun that is in the piece. while the roles

nothing but praise for it.

The next day Harmony got sweet
revenge by giving Cresco a shut-out
and tallying three scores themselves.
Cresco played rather careless game
while Harmony played an errorless one.
Cresco found Blexrud readily as the
