The saloon agitation in Ottumwa

Upon information filed by d. NJ.
Silence for selling liquors in violation
of the state laws, Charles l., Hallgren,
322 East Main street was arrested
this afternoon by Constable M. w.
Criswell, and the preliminary hearing
is now in progress in the justice court
of G. b. Melick. Hallgren is endeav-
oring to show that the petition filed
yesterday with the auditor does not
contain sufficient number of sigma
lures of legal voters; that many of the
names signed were obtained by meth
DDS unlawful, and therefore he was
operating his saloon in accordance
with the mulct law.
With the filing of a petition sworn
| to as containing the signatures of a
majority of the voters as shown at the
last general election, yesterday after
/ noon at 5:45 with County Auditor
Charles w. McCarty, thirty-eight sa
looms and seven wholesale liquor
houses ceased business. The petition
contains 26S sheets, some partly anc
4 others wholly filled with names. This
action on the part of the anti-saloof
j forces, removed the bar, and any sa
! loon or wholesale house operating
thereafter does so in violation of the
4 law. The Ottumwa Brewery and Ice
Co. is not affected by this in lega
way, however. although it is restricted
from selling its products within TIT
: city of Ottumwa.

 With the second performance the adjustment of the scenery for each act vas accomplished with greater speed las evening than on Monday, change which materially hastened the perform ance acceptably. As usual the atmos- phere of the play, a matter for which David Belasco the producer, is famed above all theatrical magnates, made very favorable impression upon the au- dience.

LAM FEE IS Lose
Senator Drake of Fort Collins
Gives Interview.

Senator w. A. Drake of Fort Col
lins. Colorado, Was here, feeling
cheerful and hopeful, as usual,
though he says the lamb feeders OF
Colorado have had the first real hard
hit Of their lives this winter, says
the Chicago Live Stock World.
Col orado feeders will lose right
at a million dollars this winter, y
said the senator. They put in a
million lambs in the state. About
one third OF these have already been
shipped out to market. Losses have
beep heavy on these, and the out look
Is not very rosy for the balance still
back to come from this on.
only one feature seems favorable g
from the present view. That is a
much larger portion Of the Colorado
lambs have been marketed than
usual by March lst. III the eastern
lambs get out Of the way and the
capstale public will only get to eat
ing good lamb meat again, as 1t has
other years, there will be chance
for better prices for some OF the
later lambs, hut the meat eaters
have got to help out some and not
order pork chop every time they
sit down at the table.
"One thing about this recent
manic. 1t was a hard one on most
interests. 1t was an especially hard
b,ov to lamb feeders. but 1t might
have been worse. II it had come
a month earlier 1t would have cost
the dealers a million loss, and " 1t
had come a month later than 1t did
IT. would have cost the feeders about
a million more loss than IL really
has cost them. So, We see, IL was y
rather lucky thing, after all.
Zone thing 1t will teach the
,amb feeders next year to buy them
to mt in their lots ut lower cost
a, Lot them alone. Flockmasters
have got to get their ideas down on
tho next crop and give feeders some
chance to recoup, or they may all De
