CAMPAIGNING THROUGH iowa
TAFT'S FAILING VOICE GAINS
AUDITORS SYMPATHY.
Gov. Cummins Pledges Hearty Sup
port to the National
Ticket.

DAVENPORT. Iowa. September %
Judge Taft's voice. though evidencing
continued improvement under the con-
slant attention of a specialist, was not
adequate to reach half of those who filled
the courthouse grounds here today to lis
ten to the candidate. Representative
Dawson's explanation that the voice of
the candidate had been used up in a good
cause, however. seemed to increase the
enthusiasm of the reception accorded the
candidate, and his valiant efforts to make
himself heard were received good ma
turedly. The speech was preceded by a
parade through the prOfusely decorated
streets and the schedule was extended to
permit of a longer meeting than had been
planned.
Iowa welcomed Taft early this morning
and will listen to his voice throughout
the day as his special train touches at
Muscatine. Wapella, Burlington, Ottumwa
and Des Moines.
Gov Cummins headed a committee of
escort which also had as a member John
+. Lacey, who Is the governors opponent
for the Senate, and Representative Walter
l. Smith and Kennedy b. F. Carroll. nom
inee for governor, and a number of local
leaders.
Mr.. Taft addressed large crowd at
Clinton. He devoted himself to the labor
question reiterating what he has hereto
fore said on that subject by holding up
the republican executive record in COM
parson with democratic promises and
finally pledging himself to do everything
in his power, if elected, as he expressed
confidence he would be, TO put LABOR on
an exact equality before the law with all
other citizens, what he termed the square
deal. Gov. Cummns preceded Mr.. Taft
in an addresse in which he pledged to the
national ticket the most hearty support

on the other hand, l ha:e met scores
OF wOrkingmen and salaried men, hither-

that they intend to support Mr.. Bryan

WRIGHT'S FINE FLIGHT.
Covers 90 Miles in 36 Minutes ID
Seconds at lie Mans Today.

LIE MANS. France. September 25.-WiI-
bur Wright. the American aeroplanist,
made a fight at the field of Auvours this
morning that lasted for thirty-six minutes
and fourteen seconds He covered twent-
ty-two miles at an average height OF
forty-five feet. He came to the ground
because his gasoline tank. which had not
been firmly closed, was leaking.
The distance made by Mr.. Wright yes
terday when he flew for the Michelin and
Aero Club prizes has been officially re-
corded At 1905 meters "a little over
twenty-four miles,.
Mr. Wright denied today again that he
had ordered more powerful motor for
his machine. He is inclined to think that
twenty-five miles an hour will be the
maximum aeroplane speed for some years
to come.
The friends of Mr.. Wright in France
are trying to persuade him 10 fly across
the English channel on the ground that
such a feat would furnish the best evi-
dence of his absolute confidence in his
machine.

NOTICE.
Very Respect.
Nina Marcum.

The time has now come when the pub
lie health must be looked after, and all
things removed from our town, that
have tendency to spread disease. 1t
has been proven beyond doubt that
mosquitoes spread malaria, and if you
will prevent their spread, after a little
while you can stop the spread of mala-
ria. You can do this by keeping all rain
barrels covered, or have little coal oil
poured into them. If you will do this,
you will stop the Matching of wiggle-
mosquitoes make wiggletails, and
wiggletails make mosquitoes. Stop one,
and you will stop the other. Then again
every place where meat is handled and
sold, must be seemed. The flies must
not be allowed to crawl over the fresh
meat. Flies spread disease, and espec-
tally typhoid fever. So far as possible
every case of typhoid fever must be
treated in screened room. The people
in the town cannot be too particular.
We have made a record as the health
lest town in the United States. Let us
keep up that record. If every one will
stand up and assist the Board of Health,
the thing is done. Do not wait to be
told to clean up your premises.
