Grinnell. Aug 27-The many friends
of Mrs Florence Kirby Manning, for

making her home at Manitou, Col.
will be interested in learning of her
marriage on the 10th of this month, at
her home in Manitou, to Mr.. A. l.. Pot

is a mixture of sand and clay appar-

the buffalo grass grows we'll there and
cultivation seems to bring fair crops
of certain kinds of vegetation. The
large number of Grinnell women who
took claims last year and have lived
on them the length of time required
by the government for proving up, are

of people would prefer. They would see
a chance to raise money and at the
same time equaize conditions, by set
ting up income taxation. Doubtless the
fight would be long and vigorous, but
there is little doubt that it would be
won. The supreme court had lndeed
decided against income tax; but that
was a close shave, and a change or
two in the court would make the law
constitutional; possibly as it stands to-
day the court would feel that the meas

Other Progressive Problems.
The problems related to interstate
commerce and interstate transportation
are so numerous, and so widely under
stood now, that hardly more than mem
ton of them is necessary. They include
a valuation of the railroads;
increasing the powers of the interstate
commission so that it will have more
effective control of rates; control of
capital issues; supervision of the
physical operation of carriers; giving
the commission power to suspend any
advance of rates or any schedule OF
rates, pending Observation-Disclosures and
many other problems arise in connec-
ton with the carriers.
Then there are the interstate COM
corporations in general-the big
trusts. For these, the question OF cap
italization, Of limiting their control in
their particular lines of enterprise, OF
federal incorporation or federal IL
cense, and many others arise
The monetary commission is just re-
turning from scouting trip to Eu-
rope. 1t will present to congress at the
coming session some sort of bill. The
understanding is that this Will
be preliminary, aiming to correct de-
tails of the present financial system
but not to revolutionize 1t in any
fundamental ways. Later, this matter
of revolutionary legislation may be
expected to come up; but not TIL the
has had more time, and
has made a study of the science OF
various monetary systems. However.
even such preliminary and corrective
as is now likely, will be ample
business for a short session of con-
gress to consider. The presidents pro-
ject in conservation of natural re-
sources is beginning to impress itself
on the country. which is considered

The Horse Market.

Chicago, Aug. 27.-Trade is nomin-
ally unchanged in both demand and
prices Limited summer orders char
acterize the market, with heavy draft
offerings dull on narrow eastern In
quiry. Southerners of desirable quality
meet broader demand at unchanged
prices Several dealers from Richmond,
Va. and New Orleans, La, are in the
market executing orders for small
chunks and medium weight drafters at
$6O@2O0, the lighter grades clearing at
s6O@11O and commercial chunks at
s140@20O and upward. Heavy drafters
move slow on narrow outside demand
at S171@225, prices being uneven ac-
cordlne to fancy and urgency of the
buyer. The market as whole is very
dull IN harmony with normal summer
conditions, with nothing in the fore
cast to warrant immediate improve
ment Only we'll bought and classified
lots sell above country cost, many loads
losing shippers money.
