THE WARDS TOO BIG.

This election has shown one thing
conclusively upon which Republicans
and Democrats can freely agree-the
.Ottumwa wards are too big What IS
needed is division of the Ottumwa
wards into precincts. 1t is an imposi-
ton upon any citizens to be called to
serve on an election board when that
work necessitates losing two or three
nights sleep. At noon as this IS
written, the first and third ward
judges and clerks of election are still
at work on the returns. They have
been at work almost continuously since
the polls opened Monday morning. For
three days and two nights they have
been counting votes and 1t is no won
der if their nerves are worn down to
wire edge long before they are through
their work.
Many OF the wards have from 500
to 700 voters If these wards were at
least split in two it would tighten the
burden on the election officials and
would permit much earlier compile
ton of the count Until this morning
1t was not known how the election had
gone in Wapello county. When the
outstanding wards were narrowed
down to the first and third wards in
town, then some idea could be gained
by the candidates and their friends as
to just how the election really went.
About forty hours after the polls
closed in Ottumwa the candidates
were able to come somewhere near
arriving at conclusion as to wheth-
er they were victors or losers

editorial staff as special contributing
editor
Mr.. Roosevelt's announced intention
to sail for Africa on March 13, 1909,
and contribute to another magazine is
admitted, but an explanation is offer
ed of this apparent discrepancy.
Referring to this feature of the
presidents plans. it is stated that
the Outlook will have the benefit of
his foresight before he sails and will
give occasional articles from his pen
on topics of. current interest which
will foreshadow his larger editorial
activity upon his return 10 his native
land"
Work for Another Magazine.
While Mr.. Roosevelt is hunting
African game and sending '.the reports
of his scientific hunting expedition
to another publication the Outlook
says:
During this period his contributions
on questions of the day will neces-
sarily be somewhat restricted"
In further explanation Of What is
meant by special contributing editor, !"
the Outlook adds:
"Mr. Roosevelt will be more than
mere contributor. His headquarters
will be at the Outlook Office and he
will be in frequent and, we hope. in
constant consultation with it's staff.
Like Consulting Engineer.
His position will thus be some
what analogous to that Of consulting
engineer who is called in to give the
benefit Of his expert cooperation to
the staff of engineers in charge of
great undertaking like the Panama
canal"
1t is added, however. that any mat
ter by Mr.. Roosevelt will be over his
signature and that there is to be no
change in the editorial control of the
