Cheering and a few Kisses
greeted the announcement.
To consume time awaiting the APP
pearance of the resolutions committee
with the report, prominent members
of the delegations were called on for
speeches. This continued for some
time. Finally the galleries, with a
profound ignorance of the manner I'M
which the convention should be man
aged, broke in with cries of Vote,
vote"
When quiet was restored, the chair
recognized Representative Ollie James,
of Kentucky. a member of the COM
mittee, which had been sent to ascer-
tain the probability of an early report
on resolutions. Mr. James reported
that the committee would not be
ready to report before midnight. He
then made a motion that the rules be
suspended and the nominating
speeches for presidential candidates be
made. with the understanding, how
ever, that no ballots should be taken
until after the resolutions were re-
ceived. The motion was carried and
clared nominations to be in order. The
secretary proceeded to call the roll of
states Alabama yielding to Nebraska.
/. j. Dunn, of Nebraska, was recog-
nized and with pleasing delivery
placed w. J. Bryan in nomination.
AS Mr.. Dunn proceeded almost
every allusion he made to the char
acter of Mr.. Bryan was enthusiastic
ally applauded, although he had not
yet mentioned the name of the Ne
braskan. The plaudits. however, were
of a transient character until Mr..
Dunn declared that his candidate was
the choice of the militant democracy
of the country. The convention broke
In with wild cheers. The ever ready
flags were loosened aloft and a wave
Of applause went through the hall.
When the cheering was at its height a
white dove was let loose from the
gallery and flew across the convention
hall, while the delegates hailed it
with great enthusiasm and cheered as
long as 1t was in sight. Mr.. Dunn
brought out the name of William Jen-
nings Bryan with intense dramatic
force, and the response from the great
throng was electric. The delegates
fspfang up, the galleries followed snit,
and the demonstration was under way
in a manner that for the time being,
at least, promised to rival yesterdays
exhibition.
A few moments after the cheering
began an immense oil painting of Mr..
Bryan was lowered from behind a
monster American shield which had
reposed over the chairman's desk ever
since the convention began. The APP
pearance of the picture raised the
pitch of the outburst to a veritable
pandemonum. 1t was not long then
before the scenes of yesterdays pro-
longed demonstration was renewed.
The delegates poured from the COM
ventlon floor onto the already over
crowded stage, and the state standards
were grouped about the platform.
Galleries and delegates were on their
feet waving the thousands of flags
and cheering themselves hoarse. Many
of the New York delegates stood and

stablhna in Winter.

Where a number of horses are kept
upon the farm during the winter that
have but very little work to do it is
a disputed question as to whether or
not they should be stabbed continue
ally. Some farmers make a practice
of turning all their horses out of
doors during the night and claim that
they are harder and stronger because
of such usage. On the other hand
others will allow them to run out of
doors all day and house them closely
during the night. There are objec-
tions to both systems and it would
seem that a happy medium between
the two would prove most satisfactory.
1t must be remembered that the
horses should have plenty of fresh air
and exercise and that they will with
stand cold better than close conf1ne-
ment in lilly ventilated stables. We
suggest to the farmer who has mares
that are to foal in the spring that they
be allowed to take their exercise in
the day time and that they be stabbed
in well ventilated stalls during the
night. If such horses are allowed out
side all night some accidents are LA
BILE to occur that could easily be pre-
vented in the, day time. Trouble is
sometimes experienced from having
strange dogs chase the horses and this
is especially dangerous if the ground
is at all slippery. Many cases of abor-
ton or other injury could undoubted-
ly be traced to this source. Where a
number of young horses are being
kept on the place the best means OF
housing is to allow them access to an

THOSE CONSENT PETITIONS.

Two counties in north central Iowa
are to be canvassed for saloon petit
lions Of consent, Wright and Grundy.
Certain reports from both counties Of
fer the information that the petitions
are to have many supporters and are
not unlikely to be successful. If the
prediction of possible success is based
on facts the citizens Of the counties
will do well to take the matter upon
the most serious consideration before
they saddle themselves with saloons
for five-year period and enable the
traffic to legalize itself, as much as
it may in Iowa, within their counties.
The fve-year period will be utilized
in every way possible to make the es-
tablishment permanent. 1t is much
harder to eject the saloon than to keep
1t cut.
Men grow disguised with blind pigs
and whisky sold by bootleggers and
drug stores which have, no other excuse
for existence, and are prone to believe
that the saloon is preferable to the
illicit traffic which goes on to greater
or lesser extent wherever the saloon
is taboo. They are inclined to be-
lieve that saloons that pay for the
privilege to sell, are advantageous to
the community over dealers who sell
in secret and are rarely indicted and
convicted The known violations of
law drive men toward the saloon as to
their minds the lesser evil. And this
impression is assiduously cultivated by
the saloon interests.
Nevertheless it isn't true The small
saloon town In Iowa does not COM
pare, except unfavorably, either In
prosperity Of citizenship, public inn
provements or otherwise, with the town
that is free and kept free from sa-
looms. Every man who travels widely
over Iowa will support this statement
if he is observant and willing to tell
the truth The dead Country" towns
of the state are saloon towns. There
is more property for sale at a cut rate
in them, more failures in business,
fewer working men living in their own
homes, more dirt, dilapidation, less
paved street, fewer cement walks, more
misery and poverty and less happiness
and prosperity than in the town which
may be cursed with bootleggers in the
dark alleys and suffer from blind pigs
that exist after the fashion of sheep

RoosEvELrs DUTY.

If Theodore Roosevelt desires to con-
tinue as dynamic and potent factor
in active legislation it appears that he
could find no greater opportunity than
that presented by a United States SEN
atorship from New York, which, It
seems, may be his for the taking. Tom
Platt says all others would get out of
his way. Mr.. Platt is wise enough to
know that it would be question of
getting out of the way or being run
over If Roosevelt will accept the Of
flee, there is not the slightest doubt
that New York would be delighted 10
honor him and the state by presenting
it with practical unanimity.
He ought to take it. 1t would be no
descent from the high place which he
refuses to occupy. for second re-
election and a third term. 1t might
be for ordinary presidents, but not for
Roosevelt. He is big enough to be
constable after having occupied the
executive chair He is so pre- emin-
entity useful that he should remain in
public life simply as public duty. IL
anywhere on earth he could be useful
and is needed in eXtremis, 1t is In a
New York senatorship. Six years Of
Roosevelt would go far to remove the
sinister blotches with which Tom Platt
and Chauncey Depew have stained the
escutcheon of the Empire state.
He would be power for progress In
a body which has been conservative to
senility, upon which the tongue of pub
lie censure has fallen UNDECIDED, IL not
unfelt, by reason Of the security at
forded by long term. and too often
for reasons more open to caustic crit
icism and condemnation. The leader

tors. Theodore Roosevelt would be a
leader about whom the forces of mod
ernity and the square deal would rally
into an irresistible movement The
avalanche is hanging. His weight
would start it.
If Roosevelt wishes to serve the peo-
pie who have honored him with the
fullest confidence ever given a presi-
dent of the United States a confidence
not confined to parties, or restrained
by political tenets and disciplines, let
him go to the senate. The people need
him and he needs the exercise.

killing dogs, and live about as long
after they are discovered. 1t is true
that in most of these towns the hanger
on at the livery barn can get pint
Of whisky any time he can get 10
cents; it is also true that search is
likely to reveal a case or two Of
drunkenness of a Saturday, and that
the feed shed is harvest place for
the boy who gathers bottles next day.
We look for these things, notice them,
in the towns referred to. We do not
inaugurate a search in the saloon
town, but if any person desires to Go

find a saloon with more intoxicatton

ton forward he will find fewer men in

All this is old 1t has been said over
and over. SO has every true thing to
be said of civic government and the
by touch, eyesight and experience. 1t
is as true in Iowa as in Mississippi
where Governor vardaman said:
There is no doubt that 1t Is better
than the open saloon OF course there
are blind tigers, but 1t is not necessary
to have them. Whenever the people
decide to get rid of them it can be
DONE because the laws that the peo-
pie get and the enforcement of the
laws is no better than those they de-
mand.
l think that the shipment Of liquor
into dry territory should be prohibited.
My record on this issue has been con-
sistent. Ever since l was old enough
to vote l have voted against the open
saloon, and in my message to the last
legislature, the one that put the sa-
loon out of Mississippi, | recommended
the prohibition law.
The county that has SO far got along
without saloons will do well to think
and consider deeply before it opens
the gate to the saloon.

Watch the Wire Fences.

Many cases of injury by wire fences
occur about this time of the year when
young horses are allowed to run In the
corn stalk fields with the cattle. 1t is
most generally the case that the stalk
fields adjofn. the pasture and the stock
is allowed to go into the field from
gate which leads from the pasture
into the field. Where young colts are
active and full Of life they are rather
easily scared and this is especially
true when they are in the fields. I'm
der ordinary circumstances they will
find the gate thru which they en-
ter. but if badly frightened they often
take the shortest way out of the field
and become badly cut by the wire fence
as a consequence. OF course under
ideal conditions horses should never
be allowed tosrun in pasture or fields
that are surrounded by barb wire
fence, but where this is done they
should by all means be kept in fields
with which they are thoroughly famil-
lar, as they are much more apt to
avoid the fence under these conditions.
Further than this horses get but very
little feed out sof corn fields and the
saving in fodder is hardlyiworth the

Calf choIera.

Calf Cholera.
During the past season we have re-
ceived number of letters from differ
ent readers who have had severe cases
of calf scoul's or calf cholera, which
have refused to yield to ordinary treat
ment. There are. of course, various
tvnes of diarrhoea among calves de-
pending upon the cause Any sudden
change in feeding may bring about
diarrhoea. Filthy feed boxes or bad
milk may likewise be the cause; and
then there is, the deadly white scours,
for which a satisfactory treatment has
mot yet been found. 1t was recently
arian for some information along the
line of treating calf scours. and we
publish herewith some timely sugges-
tions from him along this line. The
doctor says: 'In response to your re-
quest / am sending information con-
corning the treatment of calves af-
fected with diarrhoea. This treatment
is not for what is commonly known as
white scours as there is not a salts
factory treatment for this, but it may
be dealt with in very satisfactory
way by prevention. The treatment sug-
gested is for older calves In the first
place, cleanliness is very important
Changes in feed. particularly increase,
must be made gradually and 1ntelh-
gently. Beware of irregular feeding anG
overlooking. Dry. well ventilated and
we'll lighted quarters are essential, es-
pecially sunlight. AS to symptoms, the
calf is generally dull at first, the man
ure is thin, frothy, perhaps Shiny; the
color of bowel discharge is usually
some shade of yellow; there is foul
odor often resembling spoiled cheese
A satisfactory stock formalin for
calf cholera to be used for
calves weighing about 125 pounds is
as follows: First, make up solution
of formalin one-half ounce, water,
fifteen and one-haf ounces Label

The thing is urgent use one tea

apart. Thereafter give fifteen drops
tincture of opium and three teaspoon
fuls alcohol in each regular feed OF
milk and add one teaspoonful of the
stock formalin solution to each pint
of milk fed. The feed to be reduced

impression that Iowa is for reduced

ever he may do along that line cannot
be criticised by his state. He is our
senator and while the Union never en-
dorsed his views on the tariff we will
abide by the decision Of the primary
and stand by him as our representative

Remarking that a majority Of the
Iowa congressman have expressed
themselves in opposition to the re-elec-
ton of Cannon as speaker, the LeMars

in other states display the same indie
pendence there may be a chance of
