North Dakota Man lnvents shoeker
That Will Shock.

North Dakota Man lnvents shoeker
That Will Shock.
Sarles, N. D., March 21.-William A..
Leitch Of this place, has invented q
grain shocking machine, which. II
his claims are correct, will save the
farmers immense sums.
The invention consists of small
machine that can be attached to any
binder. 1t takes the bundles as they
fall from the binder and carries them
in an upright position to table. This
table rotates step by step and builds
the shock in much the same manner
as it would be built by hand. It makes
two complete revolutions and then, by
an ingenious device is parted in the
middle and the shock is dropped to
the ground.
Several attempts have been made
by other inventors along the same
lines, but have been unsuccessful De-
cause the shock fell forward with the
momentum OF the machine. In THIS
machine this is overcome by simple
devise. A steel ring is held in posi-
ton on the outside Of the shock and
drops with the shock and holds 1t to-
gether until it is deposited on tne
ground, when it swings back into po-
sttion again and is ready for the next
shock.
The machine has been put under
tests and has been very successful,
both in building and in placing the
shock. At one test the machine was
driven at trot and even at that gait
IL placed the shock in a perfect man
ner.
The inventor says the cost of the
machine will hardly be more than the
hiring Of help to do the shocking on
800 to 400 acres of grain.

LIGHT GRADUALLY DAwNING.

The Cedar Rapids Republican has
now held its ear to the ground long
enough to admit that:
1.-The Iowa congressman will be safe
in voting against the Aldrich bill.
There is no one in Iowa who is work.
ing for it or caring very much for it.
But what can the Republican say in
extenuation of Senator Allison's voting
for it in having paired with a demo-
crat who was opposed to it? The
fault which the people Of Iowa find
with Allison's kind Of leadership IS
that the Aldrches and Elkins' are not
opposed The senator's who will fight
for the public and oppose the shrewd
attorneys of the special interests must
come from the agricultural states.
Leadership which submits to what Is
without protesting and raising an OPP
position in favor of something positive
and effective for what ought to be is
the next door to leadership which is in
the actual service OF those ''undesira BILE
citizens" engaged in big business.

for getting far enough along in fair
ness to make this statement:
"All there is in the senatorial stu
alton is that two prominent citizens of
Iowa, Governor Cummins and Senator
Allison, are candidates for the United
States senate, and the republicans of
Iowa are to express their preference
at the primary election, June .. Why
not be decent in referring to this per-
fectly legitimate contest, and heed the
plea of the Waterloo Courier for "a
cessation of the base practice Of SLAM
dering every man who comes up for
Officer"
Now if the Hawkeye will pledge 1T
self to support whichever one of these
two prominent citizens of Iowa" the
people select at the primary, the cam
paign will proceed quite amicably as
far as the Hawkeye is concerned. and
we have no doubt that such action will
influence the Marshalltown paper to-
promise to be good.

GOOD VERSUS rREMIN.
(Dysart Reporter. }


For about six weeks in the early
winter, the Cedar Rapids papers were
full of news regarding the suit between
the Gas company and the city of Ce-
dar Rapids. James w Good was at
torney for the city and James H. Ire
win was an attorney for the Gas COM
pany. The city won and users of gas
were saved, according to said papers,
over $4,000 per year. Good argued
that the soc rate would yield the Gas
company Is per cent on $15O,0OO
worth of watered stock, and that this
was sufficient, if not more than they
We're entitled to, while Trewin took the
contrary view and the court held with
Good Good and TreWin are now pitted
against each other as candidate for
congress. Both are strong men and
lawyers Of ability, but the fact that
Trewin has for several years been at
torney for large number of railroads,
will mitigate against him in this cam
paign.

AGREE ON ONE LONE ISSUE.

"Nothing on earth can defeat the
ton in the coming campaign but
faltering democrats. If we stand upon
the doctrines in which we ell believe
and discard those about which we will
differ, we will Win" Thus spoke Thorn
as Carmody to the democratic state
convention in New York. Then the
convention proceeded to quarrel and
disagree.
What are the doctrines upon which
the democrats all agree, or ever have
agreed? Tfe nearest the party ever
came to being united was when Cleve-
land twice led it to victory, largely on
a platform of tariff for revenue only.
Within the party at that time were
many good democrats who strongly
favored absolute free trade. Some
chung to SSotection in spots. The de-
moralizing influences on business of the
efforts to establish tariffs with no pro-
lection resulted later III defeat The
democrats, under the leadership of
Bryan. split in several campaigns on
the money question. The party Is hope
lessly divided on the liquor question,
and this breach is growing wider daily
as the temperance wave gathers mo-
mentum in the solid democratic south.
The same division has resulted on
every important issue raised by demo-
Gratis.
If, as Mr.. Carmody declares. the
party can win by standing upon the
doctrines in which the members all
agree. the platform will be very
short one. The only doctrine upon
which democrats have heretofore been
able to get together is that ito the
victors belong the spoils." All stand on
that plank and if democratic success
comes, it will be mainly on that issue.

AS TO CORPORATION RECORD.
Cedar Rapids Gazette.)


Editor Gazette: But what are the
facts? The Iowa milestones in the
regulation of railroads were the acts
of 1874 and 1883. In 1883 Larrabee was
governor and A. B. Cummins a mem
Der of the legislature, and the Iowa
railroad laws as enacted in 1888 stood
without amendm ent until Albert b.
Cummins assumed the duties of gov
ernor in 1901 Since then by his ad-
vice and cooperation the 2-cent fare
bill, the joint rate bill, the bill for the
regulation of express rates, the bill to
prevent the issuance of watered stock,
and other bills to regulate corporate
abuse have all become laws, and 1t ts
indeed wonderful that all this has been
accomplished since Trewin ceased to
be a member of the legislature. But
these acts are but matters Of small
concern to the esteemed editor Of the
Republican, as compared to the intro
duction of harmless grand stand res
olution by a candidate who has been
o. KID by the federal office holding
mouthpiece, and is now the attorney
of the Northwestern, the st. Paul, the
Iowa Central, the Illinois Central, the
Great Western, the Rock Island, the
Cedar Rapids Telephone company, the
Cedar Rapids Gas company and other
public service corporations"

F!NOtNG FARM HELP.

Men who have farms to operate and
are in search of workmen to assist in
the labor, should remember that the
steady, reliable wage worker is home
builder. He is a married man with
family and provision should be made
for him accordingly. A very comfort
able farm house can be constructed for
$1,000 and So or 50 per month would be
fair income upon the investment
Such a house could be provided then
at an additional cost of SO per month
and an acre of ground could go with it
at about 80 cents per month additional
cost. This is all it would cost a far
mer to provide himself with the serv-
ices of reliable, home-loving, compe-
tent assistant, in excess of the cost
Of a younger man who would be here
today and perhaps in Dakota tomorrow.
The employer, however. should realize
hand in his own home was part of the
wages paid and he should not hesitate
to pay the differences in wages to the
assistant who boards himself.
Farm labor is scarce. to be sure. and
wages keep going up, but so does the
price of corn, and it is safe to say that
if the farm owners who employ labor
would study conditions as closely as
the factory owner does. and meet the
market as intelligently, his labor trou
bles would be far lighter than they
are. There are differences in the con-
ditions, but not so many as to make
the farmers problem Of employing one
or two workmen so much greater than
that of the manufacturer who must
employ hundred. Did farmers ever
try advertising in the east for help and
pay the cost Of transporting the man
and his family? And is not the custom
common among other classes of en-
ployers in cases Of men needed for
special and technical work? Less COM
plant of conditions and more effort to
overcome them is the need Of the pres
ent hour on the farms.
