2. Missouri Valley HIS de.

but one side. Bedford has had
the same side in the three de-
bates and Missouri Valley had
to change sides and prepare
the debate that they gave in
Bedford in three weeks time;
Bedford had three months On
the side they presented.
3. The constitution was VIC
lated by allowing people to en-
ter the room while Missouri
Valleys first speaker was Ie-
batting. We do not say this
was intentional, but it is con-
trary to the constitution.
4. Missouri Valley has given
the challenge to Bedford to de-
bate the question again On
either side in Missouri Valley,
in Bedford, or on neutral
grounds and to allow the di-
rector of the section, R. j.
Hartung, of Des Moines, to Sc

The above is the status olaf

thing is in the Valleys favor.
In argument the Valley far out
classed her opponents. We

The reports which are being
sent into the state auditor on
the condition Of Iowa banks un-
der a recent call for statements
show that there has been a
substantial increase in bank de-
posits in Iowa in the last four
months and this despite that at
the present time public funds
generally are low in all banks.
The general condition of banks
in the state is excellent, show
ing almost a complete recovery
from the past furry.

WAR PREPARATIONS
BY THE JOURNALS Special wire.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Japan is
rushing preparations for war and may
strike us at any moment. This asser-
tion was made today by Hudson
Maxim. a member Of the famous arms
and explosives concern, who Is visit
ing I'm Washington.
1t is a sad mistake to believe the
Japanese are broke, or that they will
be unable 10 finance a war" continued
Maxim. "Thfs Is an old game Of the
Japanese to rush war preparations
while they are crying about their pow
erty"
Maxim says that though the chances
are two TO one in favor of the United
States winning in a war with Japan
we should not be content until we
made ourselves one hundred times as
strong by fortlfying our seaports and
increasing our navy and army. II is
pointed out that incidental to his sight
seeing about the capital Maxim will
talk a little business with army and

COMPLAIN OF DUST

Since the new system Of filing cabi-
nets was installed in the Court House
offices. members Of the New Castle
county bar have been complaining OF
the dirty condition Of the books in
some of the offices. particularly those
in the Office OF Recorder Billany. The
cabinets in the Office are without doors
and in consequence dust has settled on
re books to a thickness that is OBJ
sectionable to the members Of the bar
who must handle the books daily. The
lawyers thinE-the filing cabinets in the
Office should be provided with doors.
