Americans Preferred.

The Pennsylvania railroad an
nounces that it will give preference
in employment to American citizens.
The Washington Star approves this
as a true policy and n that should
be generally adopted. it says: Wheth-
er native Or foreign born, the Ameri-
citizen-the man whose let is
cast with US and who is here to stay
Should have the call in all AmerL
can opportunity. He is the one upon
whom the country must rely in time
Of war, and he is entitled therefore
to the right-cf-way in tirle o. peace.
The best things are his by every
eight. He builds and he stays. He
establishes a local hab;tation and a
namc, and as he is for the country
the country should be Tor him. The
man who is here today aad gone TO-
morrow has no claim TO anything but
to the odd jobs which great pressure
for labor brings. The steady thing

to, Answer Charge.
C. P. Cook, we'll known tobacco
mist and billiard hall owner was today
summoned to appear before Mayor In
gledue to answer a charge of INSIDE
meanor, filed by ]. L. Imam, who al
leges in his complaint that Mr.. Cook
has permitted minors to frequent his
billiard hall. Mr.. Cook pleaded not
guilty to the charge and the hearing
was set for a week from Wednesday,
Sept.2. In the complaint Earl Imam,
Earl Rhoades, Clyde Jay, Frank Haw-
kins and Frank Johnson are the boys
named, who, it is alleged were allowed
to remain in the billiard hall. The boys
ages range from Is to II years.
MIR. Cook contends that he has made
every effort to keep minors out of his
billiard hall, and that he has repeat
edly given his employees instructions to
see that no minors are allowed in the
building. Mr.. Cook says this is the
greatest trouble he has in conducting
his business, and that If he has in
structed his employees once, he has a
thousand times, to permit no boys in
the building. Mr.. Cook thinks that If
parents were half as careful as he tries
to be, to keep the boys where they be-
longed, there. would be no trouble as
far as his place of business is con-
cerned. s4

BEWARE CANADA TH,sTLEs.
Patch is Growing in the Pasture Dow
by the Tracks.

Patch is Growing in the Pasture Down
by the Tracks.
A well-known farm owner notifies
the Times Republican that large
patch of Canada thistles are being per-
mitted to go to seed in the pasture at
the foot Of Center street, just south OF
the railroad tracks, and west of the
Iowa Central shops. He says that there
are few scattered along the railroad
right-of- way as far west as Sixth
street.
This gentleman has had some ex-
perence with Canada thistles which
makes him appreciative of their great
danger Troubled with about one
eighth of an acre of them he cut them
all down with a hoe and put salt on
every root one year. This required
three barrels of salt but did not phase
the thistles The next year he did the
same and still they grew. The third
year he cut each thistle with noe
and poured concentrated I've on the
root and they came up again in great
err numbers. He has now bought tar
paper enough to thoroughly cover the
ground and will leave it there until the
roots are killed out. 1t has already
cost him at the rate of SIZE per acre
to kill Canada thistles and he thinks
that land owners should never keep
silent while somebody raises a seed
crop of the pest.
