CUMMINGS A CANDIDATE.
WeII-known Attorney Consents to Run
for Cour ciIman at LARGE.

TOT k-dt SSs
Friends of b. F. Cummings have
finally prevailed upon him to consent
to the use of his name as candidate
for councilman t-large before the
coming municipal election, and Mr..
Cummings is reluctantly announced
today. .-,-
+ People who know Mr.. Cummings we'll
feel that in getting him to consent TO
be candidate they have accomplished
an undertaking that was at first con-
sidered hopeless. Aside from his law
practice Mr.. Cummings has other ak
tensive business, interests that make a
demand on his time. Mr.. Cummings
made a fine representative of the peo-
pie when he served this county in the
legislature, and it is a safe prediction
that he will be the same able public
servant should he be honored with q
seat in the council.
Mr. Cummings is one of the most
public, spirited men in the city, and
one Of the very heaviest property own
ers. He did more building in Mar
shalltown last season than any other
one person. He is president of the new
Iowa State Savings Bank, and of lie
new Farmers and Merchants Teic-
phone Company, and is interested in
many other business institutions in the
city. His friends will be glad to ieafir
that he has definitely decided to de-
vote some of his time to the city If the
people want him.

GOT MARRIED. "FlRED" HELP.
E. E. Mett!in Brings Suit to Collect of
Maiden Employcr.

Because, so the petition alleges, Miss
Gertrude Masterson, who lives on a
farm south of the city, verbally hired
him for q year to work on the farm,
then got married and became Mrs C.
w. Wilson, and discharged him, Elmer
E. Nettlin has brought suit to collect
on the oral contract claim amounting
to s359.95. Mettlin, according to the
petition, was to get $50 a month for
Il year and his family was to have a
house to live in and food free of
charge After he had worked short
time, and following his employers
marriage, he says he was discharged.
The amount he asks judgment for is,
he says, the difference between what
he spent for food and rent and the
wages he would have received had ne
been able to have fulfilled his con-
tract, and what he did earn doing other
things during the year.

IT the old tradition concerning the

expect some real weather about cleo
ton time.
The robins and the marbles are here
What more is needed to call attention

-
April is the date for the regular
se:ni-annual change of renters. But
| where are the houses?
From the reports from ali rural dis
tricts concerning the present condition
of country roads one is compelled to re
fleet on the efforts that have been ap-
parently wasted by the press of this
city urging methods of permanent inn
provement to public highways. The
Times Republican has printed column
after column of suggestions ana IDEAS
for the better roads People have read
them at length and commented. That's
right, it oughs TO be done" Yet every
spring rolls around, and with the seit-
son comes bad roads, and picnty oi
then. When horses fall dead by the
roadside, from exhaustion. thorough
fares must be in pretty had shape. The
conditions are such that the business
men of MarshalltoWn aud farmers
Should a&al,cn ard join in any effort
lthat viii result in some permanent IN
provemcnt. Business il town suffers
from poor roads, and the first thing the
Farmers know Uncle Sem viii be step
ing in arc taking q haild and cancel
ing ruld n3ail delivery because OF the
hnpaasabiii,s Of the routes.
From all Indications building opera
tons in AIaraaaitoWn VIII begin earlier
than usual this spring. In fact tAe
pralilninaries have already begun. But
very little frost rsmains in the ground.
ana excavating is made comparatively
easy. Contractors are busy figuring on
work, ana unless the early predictions
go wrong this city will see the longest
building season in 1909 that it has Wit
messed in many a year. The showing
that the T.-R. hopes to be able to pre-
sent to it, readers at the beginning
of 1910 gives promise of eclipsing the
excellent resume for last season.
Possibly 1t is trife early to talk
about cleaning up, hauling away the
winters accumulation of rubbish in
yards and alleys, and yet 1t would be
better to start early than to wait the
coming of the warm spring days, when
the sun starts the decay of vegetable
matter, and disease germs are spread
about as a result The formal notice
of the mayor to "clean up" isn't neces-
sary, and yet. cleaning away the rub
bish is much like an impending surgi-
cal operation, one puts it off until COM
PEELED to act.
