General Demand

Of the Well Informed Of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; q laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get it's beneficial effects always buy
the genuine Manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

Spencer. Dec. 31.--The city council
of Spencer, at its last meeting passed
an ordinance making it unlawful for
any person, firm or corporation to con-

and skating. the council went further

attached to the violation of these or

Last week johnson was arrested
and fined $40 and costs for having
struck Mrs. Anna Brown, the cashier
at the rink. Mrs. Brown and john
son had been having difficulty over the
amount of wages due to Mrs. Brown
and the fight was the result. The
mayor, William Wells, also decreed
that as additional punishment john
sons license to operate the rink
should be revoked. But the mayor
lacked the power to revoke the license
already paid for. and so the city dads
got together and passed the ordinance,
making it a misdemeanor for any one
to operate a skating rink.
The ordinance has stirred the town
from top to bottom. The interpreta-

most asked is who will be punished in

are quoted as saying that not only the

Des Moines, Dec. 31.-That there
will be no fractional contest in the re-
publican legislative caucus to decide or
the organization seems imminent from
recent developments. 1t is understood
that the so-termed "standpat" candi-
dates will all withdraw and throw their
strength to one or other Of the So
called progressive" candidates.
1t was expected that there would be
a lively contest in the caucus Then
the progressive candidates fearing that
because of having SO many candidates
they would lose out all together had
advanced to them by one candidate
the plan Of holding fractional eau
Gus 20 decide upon a candidate to sup
port for the speakership in the repub-
lican caucus. The republicans
who would have been frozen
out of the consideration by
this means have met this proposition
with the demand that they be given the
privilege of having some voice in their
party caucus and have planned re-
venge to the man who proposed this
fractional method by throwing their
votes to some progressive candidate
against him. 1t is generally under
stood now that Harding, of Woodbury.
county, the most formidable standpat
candidate, will withdraw from the race
and the "standpatters" will throw their
support to that progressive candidate
who will give them the best consid-
Grafton in committee appointments.
Considering the matter from this
viewpoint it is said that Feeley. of
Blackhawk, and White, of Story. have
the best chances of winning. Both of
these men, it is claimed, have been
soliciting standpat support for their
nomination in the caucus. They will
also have great deal of progressive
support. Lee, of Emmett, who has been
such radical on the floor of the
house that he can hope for no stand
pat support and who has been relying
solely on the progressive vote for the
nomination, appears to be losing
ground. Darrah has always been looked
upon as a fair man and might be the
fortunate man on whom the combined
party strength may center. Stillman is
making no campaign for the honor.

Iowa City, Dec. 31.-Thru Drs. Hen
ry Albert and j. A. Valenta, of this
city, together with Secretary Thomas.
of the state board of health, the ply
sicians of Iowa are trying to have en-
grated upon the recommendations of
the committee on the revision of school
laws, some very far-reaching provis-
ions. The committee of physicians
mentioned have taken up with the
scl1oel commission, the matter of get
ting legislation which will contemplate
the physical examination of pupils in
the public schools, not in all cases,
necessarily, but where it may seem adj
visable. The physicisas also would like
to see the study of physiology extended
considerably, and one of their sugges-
lions is that some provision be made
for teaching the pupils something in
the nature of THE practical and useful
hygiene Of the sexes. At the present
time these reforms which have been
asked for rest with the school COM
mission, of which Prof. F. -. Bolton Is
chairman.

Public Opinion Changing Regarding
Mental Responsibility of Patricide.
Mason City, Dec. 31.-There is de-
cided change in sentiment relative to
the responsibility of Edward McNa-
mara in thA shooting Of his father,
Martin Mcnamara, at Grafton Satur-
day. The people in that vicinity and
in Worth county are not quite so len
lent in their expressed sentiment and
many are beginning to believe that
young Mcnamara was not insane, as
was at first believed, but that he had
a motive which was prompted by a
mind able to contain a scheme for end
ing the Life of his father that he might
reap the reward of an heir.
Subsequent actions Of the young
man, his alleged conversation and So
called confession and later repent
ance Of the deed has kept public SYM
pathy guessing some. 1t is now NOV
ing rather away from the son instead
of toward him, which was the con-
dition at first.
