The situation which now confronts
the people Of Tazewell is simply
this: The graded school building is
both unsafe and also totally made
quate for the accommodation OF the
pupils OF the town. The district
board would have no legal or moral
right, even if it had the money, TO
take all the funds OF the district
from the rural portion Of the district
and expend il on building for the
town. Such course would be flag
rantly unjust even II ii were possible
TO do il. But the Board has not the
funds, nor will il be able to obtain
the funds. Therefore the town Of Taze-
well is OF necessity reduced TO q
choice of two courses, viz: Provide
q suitable school building for the
school, or be without public school.
The school law is very clear and ex.
plicit in stating the fact that nC
public funds shall be available TO
the pay OF teachers until suitable
buildings have been provided. IL Il
clear that The town can not and viii
not suffer the 400 children within
the limits of this corporation 10 b.
without school privileges.
The only remedy for this conditio,
of affairs, as far as can be ascertain
ed at this time, is TO have the towl
erected into IA separate school distric
and maintain lis own schools. Til

A Subject For the Fool Killer.

Cedar Rapids Gazette: A political
campaign always proves that the fool
killer had failed to do his duty At
many a political rally, no matter who
tae speaker has been. and very often
when the orator has been a man of
national reputation, disturbers have
been present. These disturbers are
not confined to any party. They are
found at Republican meetings and at
Democratic meetings. They either
imagine it is a smart thing to annoy
a public speaker or they are so drunk
they have small conception of what
they are doing. OF course no one but
hoodlum condones the acts of a
rowdy, and political managers recog-
inze the fact that annoying a speaker
always makes friends for the speaker
and the cause he represents. But that
does not always cause the elimination
of the rowdy. He is one of the NUS
ances that the people seem to be I'M
able to rid themselves OF during
heated campaign.

can candidate for congress in this dis
trict and the Washington Press speaks
of him as follows:
Congressman Charley Kennedy, of
Montrose, is up for reelection. Ken
nedy is an ideal public servant and
seeks to be returned to congress for
the second term. During the first
term he certainly made good. He

district carefully and conscientiously.
He has been active in the interests of
his constituents Moreover the
Roosevelt administration has had in
aim loyal supporter of all the
party policies. No member attends
more closely to the duties of his
office or tries harder to serve his
people than does Congressman Ken
nedy. He is gentlemen of the

he would be willing to accept the place.

Lacey and the Farmers.

Vinton Eagle: In one of the cards
sent out announcing the candidacy of
Major Lacey as a candidate for the
United States senate is paragraph
which should be read by every farmer
in Iowa In 1t Major Lacey says: "Ex-
perience has shown that with protec-
ton comes prosperity and with free
trade adversely Nothing Is truer.
This card goes on to say: "This law
(the Dingley tariff law which Major
Lacey helped to frame has brought
about the present value of FARM
products, with horses at $3.50, cattle
over $3.50 and hogs over ST per hun
bred, and corn over seventy cents per
bushel. The schedules of this law will
be revised in the next congress
Lacey will labor and vote to maintain
present agricultural conditions, which
have caused land to advance to 500
per acre and up. If you want these
conditions to continue, work and vote
for Lacey at the primary November 8.
The farmers prosperity is the pros
perity of every citizen of the state.
1t is well for our people to ponder on
the above. If we understand senti
ment there is no disposition in this
county to vote man into the United
States senate who is likely to vote
Canada on an equal footing with the
United States.

This would amount to thousands of

The people can realize from this
bat as soon as the contract has been

Is Good News.

Is Good News.
The progress being made as an
nounced exclusively in The Gate City
last evening, is mighty good news.
On September IA, The Gate City re.
printed an article from IT,, st. Louis
Post-Dispatch stating that St. Louis
was interested in the Keokuk water
power proposition and that investiga-
lions were being made as to whether
power could be transmitted from Keo-
kuk to that city.
The investigation seems to have
worked out all right and all that re.
mains now is to sign the contract
which has been drawn up, for which
purpose Mr.. Powelson is now in st.
Louis.
The good news of last evening, COM
ing after the news printed in this pa
per on September IA, connects the
chain and about completes the story.
Keokuk people were not aware that
the proposition to furnish st. Louis
with power had reached the stage
when a contract was about to be sign
ed and first learned of it by reading
last evenings Gate City. They read
on September IA that ST. Louis might
make bid for some of the output of
the plant, but many were skeptical as
to the transmission Of power that dis
lance. Last evening, The Gate City
removed that skepticism and gave out
some new and exclusive water power
news which came as a great sensation
to Keokuk.

One Farmer Realizes $50 per
Acre from his Crop

Laurel, S. D., Aug. 13.-C. l..
johnson, successful farmer of
Sully county. has demonstrated that
Sac county. Iowa. has no monopoly
on the popcorn business. Mr. John
son still has on hand 700 bushels of
popcorn which he produced last year
and this year he has a 25 acre field
planted to it. He has found the
soil here suited to popcorn and il
has been good yielder, with its
myriad Of small ears. Frequently
he has harvested as much as 35 to
40 bushels an acre. He followed
the novel plan of cutting it with a
harvester and then running il
through a threshing machine. which
he says has always worked satisfac-
torily. He uses it for feeding stock
sheep. besides selling
large quantities in the city market
at 3 cents a pound. At this rate he
realizes $40 to $50 an acre from the
crop, which record cannot be equal
led by any other crop except pota-
toes.

LOCAL REPUBS.
ARE "NOTIFIED"
Candidates Gather to Accept
and Arrange Campaign

Chairman d. H. Smith, of the re-
publican county committee, called a
meeting of county candidates in
Miller Saturday to arrange prelimi-
naries of the county campaign.
To the locals this was their notifi-
cation meeting. They all handed
their letter of acceptance to the
chairman, and decided not to call
upon any of the trusts for campaign
support. Of course, if any strong
party man wishes to contribute in a
sum not exceeding $40, he will have
his name embossed upon the hand
book of patroits.
The G. o. P. elephant was trotted
out for inspection, and looked so
good to all present that vote taken
disclosed a unanimous confidence for
the whole tickets election.
The kind and method of campaign
came under discussion, and the re-
suit was for an open house where
the public could gather later on as
the campaign warmed up; also for
the best presentation of republican
issues and principles to the voters
through campaign of frank and
open publicity, with stout lid on
the old gum shoe method of the cap
ital and county seat dark ages.
The candidates are all ready for
the lite skirmish preliminary to
their assuming official duties Janu-
airy lst, next, and want everybody
to know it.
Their footprints up and down the
county will be as easy to read as one
lady's wash is to any neighboring
lady five minutes after it is hung on
the line.
Finances? Well, the boys didn't
say what 1t cost them. Maybe there
was something left over" like the
democrats say of that 100000.

and lovable boy was shoce' - the

once more forcibly illr, < 3 :
''in the midst of life ~ S @
death" =" sof in
Leaving home in the evenPunty
was his wont to bring his cow ion "a
pasture, astride his gentle rnnec
horse. Charley was seen to ride hto
the Mcmahon pasture adjoining
town. Shortly afterwards one of
Mr. McMahon's little girls saw the
riderless horse come to the stabh ad-
joining the pasture. She notified
her mother and brother whowent
out to see what was the matter
They found Charley near the pasture
fence, terribly bruised anduncon-
sclous. He was carried into their
home, word sent to his family. and
Drs. McWhorter and Lane summon
ed.
Their examination found a frac-
ture of the skull at the base of the
brain. His foot and shoeIalso show
ed that he had been dragged about
the pasture, as was still further cor
roborated by following the horses
tracks.
There was no witnessto the trage-
dy, but it is though the horse
stumbled and threw Cnrley in such
a way that his head stuck, one foot
catching in a stirrup. The frighten-
ed horse probably ian aimlessly
about until the boys bhoe gave way
and his foot slipped d 1t of the STIR
rup. The accident klso lamed the
horse.
Charley lived pelhaps half an
hour, and passed to tie great beyond

RAILROAD WORK
IN CENTRAL OAK.
Will the Milwaukee Build From
Orient to Miller

A special train consisting of the
Milwaukee r. R. officials private car
and sleeper was in town about z
p. M. Sunday evening looking over
the road. This and the fact that for
some time the road has been consid-
ing the laying of heavy steel between
here and Roscoe, looks as if it might
mean that they intend extending the
line south soon.-Orient Argus.
Visits Of railroad officials, and ru-
mors of building are the usual pre-
limlnaries to railroad extensions
but whether there is any real signifi-
canoe to the above is merely surmise.
That the Milwaukee will close its
short gap between Orient and one of
its lines to the south soon is well
settled belief. An important official
of the Milwaukee some months ago
stated as his opinion that his road
would not complete its connection
from Orient through Hand county
until the coast line was completed.
That was probably just a logical sur
mise, because of the concentrated
effort on. the coast line. But that
line is forging ahead rapidly. and
preparations may soon begin to close
up gaps that are evidently intended.
Another very general belief now
expressed is that the Northwestern
road through Miller is intended for
a coast road. Large forces of men
and several work trains are now
making this line one of the best in
the west. and it is not likely the
Northwestern Co. would go to such
great expense merely for local traf-
fic.
The belief also obtains on the
north Pacific coast that the new
Coast Line road" with expensive
terminals recently purchased at
Seattle. is really the Chicago and
Northwestern.
Another rumor Is current that the
Northwestern also has control of
the Salt Lake & San Pedro road, a
new and short line to Southern Cali
fornia from Salt Lake City.
And while railroad rumors are
often discredited, yet it is fact that
they always precede actual con-
struction.
If these things eventuate in the
near future and bring Central South
Dakota in touch with two transcon-
tinental lines of railway, it will be
the greatest bit OF good fortune that
has ever touched this part of the
state for its rapid development.
Huron papers announce important
changes contemplated soon in the
G. & N. w. trains, including sleep
ing car service on two trains from
Rapid City each day, through to Chi
cago. An additional night train
with sleeper service between Sioux
City and Huron is also expected
