eral average for the country. In the
thinly populated western states, whose
natural resources are much greater
than New York's, the wealth per capt.
ia is in some instances only one-fifth
as great
AS the population of the country in
creases toward the mark set for nine
ty years hence, the utilization of re-
sources and the additional demand
created for products of field and mine
will be such that the increase in wealth
cannot fail to keep pace. And keeping
pace with the enormous growth of
population means only one-twentieth
as rapid creation of wealth as shown
by the record since 1900, since McKin-
icy was elected the second time, since
what seems only yesterday.
The farmer and the miner could not
have done what they have in this coun-
try if it had not been for the applica-
ton of business genius to their prod
uts. Without the railroads the coal
Without swift express trains the rich
fruit and vegetable gardens of the
South could not sell to other sections
their products. Without the ice
machine the great meat industry could
not live and the cattle-grower could
not market his herds. without the
organization of great buying and SELL
ing concerns the markets Of the mod
ern age could not exist over night.
In the ninety years to come there is
no doubt but that the abuses of per-
sonal and equal rights on the part Of
the great business organizations will
be prevented and corrected. The evils
of the corporation will be extinguish-
ed in the benefits of cooperation. The
organizations will not be abolished,
they will be extended to include prac-
ticaIly the whole people. 1t will not
require ninety years for the example
of the truck growers of Eastern Virgil
MIA, the beet growers of Iowa and the
fruit growers of Southern California
to demonstrate to all farmers the value
of intelligent cooperation. The deeds
of violence of the Kentucky night rid
ers will be forgot. but such organiza-
tions as the Tobacco Growers Protec-
tive Association will continue to exist.
The farmers of the country will get
their weather predictions and their
perhaps by wireless ticker, every
morning. They will market their prod
uce at the point of consumption by
the instantaneous agency of electricity.
They will control the wealth they
create themselves instead of letting it
be controlled for them. If this be
..agrarianism" it is none the less in
Dictated by the present actual condi-
tions in widely separated parts of the
union.
Such development of business organ
ization as this will not only mean
great creation of wealth, but it will
mean also the more equitable distrib-
ution of wealth. It is toward the solu-
ton of the problem of distribution of
wealth that every effort of Legislative
reform is now being directed. No
other political issue obtains recogni-
ton. Does anyone doubt the ability
of the American people in ninety years
TO solve any question which they seri-
ousIy and earnestly attack? Before
saying such things are impossible let
the pessimist put himself in the place

this week to attend a meeting of the
board of directors of the Dan Patch

local committee who are watching the
interests of Granger in the proposed
line. The gentlemen returned
yesterday well pleased with their trip
and with renewed confidence that the
line will be built and that Granger will
be on the line if the people of Granger
and Cresco will enter upon the work
in the right spirit and give substantial
aid in the way of stock subscriptions.
The Granger committee will commence
work soon to secure stock subscriptions

To Patrons Of Rural Routes.

Postmaster Burgess desires to call
attention to the practice of some pat
rons of rural delivery of placing loose
coins in their boxes each time they de-
sire to dispatch letters instead of sup
plying themselves with postage in adj
vance of their needs. This practice
imposes undue hardship on rural car
carriers in removing loose coins from
boxes and delays them on the service
Of their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, urgently
requests that patrons of rural delivery
provide themselves and keep on hand a
supply of stamps consistent with and
in advance of their needs. 1t is also
very desirable that rural patrons place
in their boxes small detachable cups of
wood or tin in which to place coins,
when necessary, in purchasing sup
plies of stamps.

TO SCHOOL OFFICERS AND PATRONS

This conference is important. Every
director, school officer, and patron in
the county should attend, for next
year many changes are likely to occur
in our school system and school laws.
The legislature has ordered a revision
of the school laws and Governor
Cummins has appointed commission
to do the work. Frederick E. Bolton,
chairman of the commission, said to
me in recent letter:
s'The Educational Comm ission desires
to serve the best interests of the state
of Iowa, and will be glad to consider
any suggestions which any citizen of
the state may make.
1t is time for us to consider the
needs of Howard County and unite on
some policy that will meet present
difficulties, and strengthen our rural
schools. If resolutions which you do
not approve are. passed at the meeting,
you will blame yourself if you did not
attend.
Everybody will have a chance to
voice his opinions in the meeting. The
conference will be entirely informal
If you think something in our school
system ought to be changed, tell us
about it. If you are opposed to-
changes such as state aid for rural
schools, consolidation, ETC., then come
and present your objections.
This year there has been much dis
satisfaction with present conditions on
the part of directors and patrons.
There are real difficulties ahead. Let
us talk them over and make our wants
known to the Commission. Now is the
time to help shape future school legis-
lation. Let everyone come out.
SARAH E. Brown,
County Superintendent.
SOME QUESTIONS WHICH WILL BE CON-
SIDERED
'Shall the Rural Schools of This
County be Consolidated" If so, To
What Extent?
The state is considering the matter
of aid for the rural schools and for city
schools: The State Teachers Associa-
ton at Des Moines passed resolution
favoring the granting of the whole
amount of state aid to the city schools
on condition that they shall give free
tuition and offer course in Agriculture
and Teachers Training Course.
"Shall Rural Schools Receive State
Aid Directly"
"Shall We Raise Teachers Wages in
This County, and How Much?"
"Shall School Directors Receive Pay
For Their Services?"
| 'tShall the County Superintendent be
elected by the people or appointed by
county board?"
"shall the time of the July meeting
be changed?"
Il "What is the duty of the Rsare
when teacher cannot be found who
will teach for the salary fixed upon al
the July meeting?"
| Other questions will arise in the
discussion. Let all take part freely.

RY. AND WERNER HURT
Early Morning Fight in Jail Alley
Continued Until Patrol
Arrived.

i ~ = r 4 l. i q
In attempting to arrest Lena Carter,
q young negro woman, stronger In
physical than moral force. at an early
hour this morning, Policemen Gary
and Werner were assaulted by tho
Amazon. who, In her drunken fury,
threw a lamp In the face OF Gary and
brick at the head OF Werner, tenn
porarily disabling both. II required
u more or less terrific struggle to ar
rest the tigress. but the two officers
finally subdued her. and the patrol
wagon was called to transport her to
the First Police Station, where she was
soon locked behind iron bars.
officer Gary was badly cut in the
face by the flying lamp. and 1t required
the attendance OF an ambulance sur
Econ to repair the injury
Both OF the men were treated In the
station house. Wcrner's injuries were
Of minor nature.
The difficulty occurred In jail Alley,
where the woman was acting in dis
orderly manner. When the officers ap.
preached her, she took refuge in a
house. where she picked up a lighted
lamp and hurled 1t into officer Gary's
face. Blinded by tho fiery missile,
Gary was unable for the moment to
get closer to the furious woman, and
she took advantage OF the momentary
respite to strike the struggling Werner
with brick. Neither officer was. how
ever. disposed to give up the fight, and
after a combat IN which tue woman
tried all her prowess. the officers man
aged to sCbdue her.
