Franklin County Lined UP for candi-
date to Succeed Birdsall
Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, Feb. 17.-Politics, so far
as congressional matters are concerned.
in Hampton and Franklin county,
seems to have crystallized decidedly
favorable to nominating Charles d..
Pickett, of Waterloo, to succeed Judge
Birdsall The Hampton Recorder was
the first paper in the Third district
outside of Waterloo, to join the Pickett
forces, and it met with a hearty re-
Spouse from the voters. The Pickett
army, marshaled by l. l.. Stewart, jun
ior editor of the Recorder, who for
years has been close friend and adj
mirer of the brilliant attorney from
Blackhawk county, grew rapidly IN
number, and when Judge Birdsall an
nounced that he was out of the race,
his workers here with spontaneous
alacrity jumped into the Pickett band
wagon The result is that the repub-
lican hosts of Franklin county are
lined up in solid phalanX for Charles
E. Pickett. There seems to be no sec
ond choice-it's Pickett first, last and
all the time.

State University Registrar Believes It
Will Go Beyond $500 Mark.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, Feb. 1.-THE registration
at the University of Iowa bids fair to
be record breaker this year. The
registration for the second semester
has not yet been finished, but it is
probable, according to the statement
given out by Registrar Barrett, that it
will go beyond the $500 mark. This is
undoubtedly due in great part to the
Boosting" club movement that was
organized last fall, in which nearly
every student in the university took
part.
The registrar is in receipt of a
large number Of letters from high
school pupils all over the state on the
matter of their attendance at the uni
versity next year. Mr.. Barrett predicts
that next falls enrolment will surpass

1t is surmised that the educational in

unite in this work.
A unique opinion has just been hand
ed down by Attorney General Dyer
which is worth Just $l66.61 n month
or $1,000 a year to Judge $. Nj. Weav
CT of the supreme court. The January
payrolls carried with it the regular
warrant for $333.33 for the judges o
the court. The legislature had at it.
last session raised the salary of the
supreme justices from $4,000 to Sc.
900, but does not take effect until they
are reelected The contention o.
Judge Weaver was that by the pas
sage of the biennial election law which
gave him an extra year in the SUI
preme court, the people indirectly re-
elected him for that period. He there
fore maintained that the new salary
should become operative from January
!. Attorney General Byers has iileo
an opinion with the auditor Of state
ratifying such a decision
The county treasurers in Iowa can
not hereafter collect the customary
three fourths of ! per cent on taxes
paid on special Improvement assess
ments, according to a ruling made In
the supreme court in the case brought
by the Barber Asphalt company
against Woodbury. county and tht
county treasurer there. The court held
that the law specifically states that
the commission shall be charged fol
the collection of taxes due the county
or state, and as the special assessment
collections belong to the holders of the
Improvement certificate. it cannot be
rightfully classed as identical with 9th
er tax collections.
This will make q difference of sew

CARLISLE FOOTBALL.
Indians Announce Their 1908 season
 Schedule.

The Carlisle Indian football schedule far 1908 has been announced by Coach Glenn s Warner It Is evident that the malicious attacks on the makeup of the Indian team late last fall did not injurc the standing of the redskins, as the Carlisle management received more requests for games than ever be- fore in the history of the school. Prof fers of games with Cornell, West Point ad many other frst-class teams had to be refused because of existing obliga- tons with other eleVons and lack of dates on the schedule Requests for games came from several points on the Pacific Coast and from as far south as Havana, Cubl, and 1t is probable that q Christmas holiday trip will be ar ranged into either the west or south, The Annapolis cadets have been sub l stituted for Princeton and the West em University of Pennsylvania will be played instead of Chicago. The l Thanksgiving day game will be played against st Louis university at St l Louis but otherwise the list of games Is about the same as that of last year l The schedule follows;

"The Blood is The Life"

Science has never gone beyond the above simple statement of scripture. But it has illuminated that statement and given it meaning ever broadening with the increasing breadth of knowl- edge. When the blood is s"bad " or im- pure it is not alone the body which suffers through disease. The brain ia also clouded, the mind and judgement are effected, and many an evil deed or impure thought may be directly traced, to the impurity of the blood. Foul, impure blood can be made pure by tho use of nr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery.
