DON'T draw conclusions too quickly,
dear reader. The Congressman Ed
wards who wants the salaries of the
members reduced to the former figure
is not the Edwards of the bloody
Eleventh, but Georgian and a demo-
crat. Kentucky's Congressman Ed
wards belongs to party which wants
all that's coming and then some.

FRANKFORT has 81 saloons. or one to
each 400 inhabitants. Our good broth
er of the Kentucky State Journal should
certainly get enough of open saloons
and red liquor there without wanting
whisky sold at every cross roads in
Kentucky.

We did not intend to even intimate
that the editor of the Kentucky State
Journal is a whisky drinker. We know
too well to the contrary. And that
makes us wonder the more why he is
such strong advocate of open saloons.

PROF. WARMANs LECTURES.
Last Nights Hour Devoted to Hyp
notism and Suggestion.

For the fourth time there was q
larger crowd than ever attended the
Warman lectures at the First Presby
terrain church Monday evening, the
subject for the lesson being "Hyp
notism and Suggestion" Prof. War
man distinguished between hypnot
ism, suggestion and mesmerism. The
power of suggestion, he says, is pos
sessed by everyone, but all do moi
know how to practice 1t to the best
advantage. When properly used II
is the greatest curative agency
known. Suggestion used intelligently
by mother is most potent factor
for good, as thereby the most willfu
child may be made submissive, not
by destroying the will, but by direct
ing in into proper channels. A book
he says may be OF more value fol
what it suggests than what 1T con
tains. The Professor denied the
power of a hypnotist to influence
anyone against their will, nor tc
make them do acts while under his
power that are contrary to their prin
ciples OF character.

TAFT FOR FAIRGROUNDS.
Thinks Cities Should Provide Places
for the Children TO Get Proper
Recreation.

Pittsburg. Pa, May lin a letter
expressing his regret at being unable
to attend the meeting of the Play
ground Association of America, now in
session here, President Taft says in
part:
Il do not know anything which will
contribute more to the strength and
morality of that generation of boys
and girls compelled to remain part of
urban populations in this country than
the institution in their cities of play.
grounds, where their hours of leisure
can be occupied by rational and
healthful exercise.
Il think every city is under the
strongest obligation to its people to
furnish to the children, from the time
they begin 10 walk until they reach
manhood, places within the city walls
large enough and laid out in proper
form for the playing of all sorts of
games which are known to our boys
and girls and are liked by them. l sim
cerely hope that your present conven-
ton may be success"

HELD TO GRAND JURY
Jess Harlan is Bound Over to Es.
quire Cruzen.

To be tried upon two serious charges
in eighteen hours, both of which are
indictable by the grand pury is the
experience of Jesse Harlan, residing
south of the city and who has ap
peared in the Oskaloosa peace courts
several times. The two charges grew
out of the HarISn-Kinney family
quaTels, Albert Kinney, being arrest
ed by Harlan, for alleged attempted
murder of six year old Bertha Harlan
and who was indicted by the grand
jury. Mrs. Kinney the lads mother
in turn, through her attorney, W. s.
Kenworthy, had marian arrested on
two charges, one of lewdness and the
other assault with intent to commit
murder. The informations were
sworn to Justice Woodruff but were
taken to Justice Cruzen's court on a
change of venue. Harlan was tried
on the lewdness charge before Squire
Cruzen Monday afternoon. Several
witnesses were examined ana the eyi
dence being deemed sufficient Squire
Cruzen held the man to the grand
jury under two hundred dollar bonds
which he furnished. The other charge
against Harlan is being conducted il
the same court this morning.

TO ENTER 0SKALOOSA
Another Link in Big Chain of Stores
Said to be Scheduled.

A well founded rumor has been drift
ing about in commercial circles dur
ing a number of weeks to the effect
that T. f. Woolworth Company, syn
dictate handling an exclusive stock of
five and ten cent goods, will enter Os-
kaloosa with one of their many stores.
The syndicate is credited with cap
ital something like fifteen million
dollars, and is said to have in opera
ton over two hundred stores in the
larger cities of the country and to
control the output of numerous mills
and factories of cheap goods. They
have stores in Ottumwa, Des Moines,
Cedar Rapids, and other points sur
rounding Oskaloosa.
The repairing and additions being
made to the Woodin or Gibbs building
on High avenue east, formerly occu-
pied by Miss S. B. Atkins, has revived
the rumor heard some time ago. 1t
was known that Woolworth agents
were considering the location, but
they insisted upon building one hun
dred and twenty feet with basement
and the location was considered not
the best for the purposes of the COM
Ipany. .... .. .#r1

BRADBURY DEFEATED
Local Captain However Made Good
Race for Major.

Captain John c. Bradbury, of Com
pany F, Fifty-fourth Regiment of this
city, was defeated in his race for
Major of the Fifty-fourth Regiment
by Captain Thomas P. Hollowell, OF
Company A, Fort Madison. #
Captain Bradbury has not received
all the returns, but the election is
close. He made a strong race when
1t is taken in consideration that he
did not announce his candidacy until
a few days before the election.
1t is almost impossible for an Off
Ger of an inland company to secure
high Office in the Fifty-fourth Reg,
iment, as the companies IN the river
towns are clanish and control the
election of officers in the regiment
Captain Bradbury's friends In the
Guard are elated over the showing
made by him in the race and the next
time a higher office is opened they
hope to see him elected to the place.
He secured the unanimous vote oil
the Oskaloosa company.
The election was held 10 fill the va
cancy of the office OF major caused by
the promotion of Major Fred Holsteen
of Burlington to Lieutenant Colonel.
The detailed votes of all the compa-
mics with the exception OF the Daven-
port company which is believed will
give Mr.. Bradbury a big vote, is as

HH4
After July conductors and brake
men on all passenger trains operating
in Iowa can rigidly deal with all OBJ
noxious passengers who are either
drunk or drinking, swearing or using
indecent language, with the knowl-
edge that the state laws are backing
them up. Superintendent of the rail
road lines entering Ottumwa have re-
ceiyed notices from headquarters to
inform all passenger train employees
of the recent enactments OF the legis-
lature. Any person who shall drink
Intoxicating liquors on passenger
coach or car, or who uses profane or
indecent language, is guilty of a mis-
demeanor under the new law which
goes into effect July 4. Under this
measure conductors are granted the
privilege and are ordered 10 refuse ad-
mittance to any person under the in
fiuence of liquor unless the offender
| is in charge of some officer of the
peace. If people in an intoxicated
condition do manage to enter passen-
ger trains or if they are found drink
ing on the trains, the conductors are
given the right to put them off and the
law will sustain them in the action
The orders state that the only condi-
ton in connection with ejecting a pas
senger under such circumstances is
that the person shall be put off at some
station, although not necessarily at
one of the regular stops of the train.
