Now For Business.

Des Moines Capital: All the wise
men who are able to tell in advance
who is going to be elected have agreed
that Taft will win.
Walter Wellman, the voluminous
Democrat who writes on all sides Of
everything says Taft has the best
show. That is good deal for Well.
man to say.
Raymond Patterson, whose pen
name is Raymond" who does the
first page political work for the Chi
cago Tribune. is sure that Taft will
win. The editor Of the Tribune in a
signed statement predicts the election
of Taft.
That great independent paper the
New York Herald, by an exhaustive
showing, demonstrates that Taft will
be chosen President.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, John R.
McLean's paper, which for fifty years
or more has been Democratic, says
Taft will defeat Bryan.
The New York World makes a long
showing as to ballots and practically
comedies Taft's election.
The gambling fraternity In all the
large cities believes Taft will be
chosen, and the bets are constantly
with the odds against Bryan.
The great business interest Of the
country have awakened, and although
they dislike Roosevelt they prefer Taft
to Bryan.
The labor union men. realizing that
the 100 congressman of the Democratic
persuasion from the solid south would
prevent Bryan doing anything for labor
provided he should want to do so, are
in some measure turning to the sup.
port of Taft. Labor is not yet digni.
fed in the south. Therefore many
union labor men are going to support
Judge Taft.
The farmers Of the United States
are all for Taft.
The colored men are largely getting
back into line to the support of the
Republican tlckel.
Everything would indicate that the
Republicans are to elect the President
and vice President. This will near
that there is to be complete reviva,
of business in the east and that we are
to have four years more Of prosperity
Now for business.
Now for general improvement in city
and country.
Now for the boys and girls in col
lege; and better facilities
Now for a general movement for
ward
Now for continuance in legislatine
and enforcing the square deal.

Expect Builders.

The contract for the building Of the
tower was let to the Ewinger-Lee Co.,
of Burlington and Theodore Niehaus
an expert in this line of work is in
charge of the construction and with
him are five Burlington workmen who
are skilled in the building of these
towers and make business of putting
up windmills and this kind of struc-
lures.
Yesterday was the first fair day that
the work could be given a good start
and the structure has gone up fast
though the workmen had to be sent for
at Burlington because of the fact that
no Keokuk or other nearby city men
would take the perilous work of put
ting up the immense steel frame.

All Members Are Asked to Mark
Their Lanterns on the Bottom
SO They Can Be
identified.
THE CLUB DETECTIVE
Big Report From the Directors
Will be issued on Saturday
and All the Names Are
Wanted.
Mark your lantern.

Mark your lantern.
This is official order No. 36 issued
last evening by the directors OF the
Keokuk Lantern club who held anoth-
er enthusiastic meeting and talked
over matters.
There was a full meeting of the
board and after the minutes of the
previous meeting had been read and
approved, the business before the
meeting was disposed Of, including the
election to membership of another
long list of patriotic citizens who are
hanging out lighted lanterns or leav-
ing porch lights burning these dark
nights.
The directors decided that all mem
bers should mark their lanterns 80
that they may be identified If stolen,
and recovered. The laundry system
of marking was adopted, the owner
putting the .,itial of their last name
and their house number on the Ian
tern, either Ivy scratching it upon the
bottom with pin or nail, OF painting
it on. All lanterns are to be marked
on the bottom.
For instance, Judge Bell living at
500 Grand avenue, should mark his
lantern "B SOB" and Smith of 1919
Pleasant street should mark his IS
1919" and so on.
The club detective reported large
number of lanterns belonging to mem
bers as having been stolen. But the
lanterns not being marked, there
would be little chance of identifying
them.
Let every member mark his lantern
at once as 1t will greatly assist the
club detective in running down Ian.
