The members of the board of health
DIR. p. d. Peabody and w. q. Waddel
were called out to Mipnewashta lake
Monday on account of a large number
of fish strewn along the banks dead.
They found large number of dead fish
and are unable to account for them.
Some say it was dynamite, some say it
Is due to the low water and vegetable
poison. The board OF health will ven-
ture no reason for the cause of the death
of the fish and were satisfied that there
would be no bad results to the health
of the community because Of them as
they would too soon be decomposed and
removed. It's well for people purchas-
ing fish to be sure that they did not
come from that lake.

Over the river they beckon to me,
Loved ones who crossed to the other side I;
The CLEAN of their snowy robes ] see,
But their voices are drowned by the
rushing tide.
We see not the angels that meet them
there;
The gate of the city we cannot see;
Over the river, over the river,
My dear ones stand waiting to welcome
For none return from those quiet shores
Who cross with the boatman, cold and
pale;
We hear the dip of the golden oars,
And catch a glimpse of the snowy sail;
And lol They have passed from our
yearning heart.
They cross the stream and are gone for
aye
We may not sunder the veil apart
That hides from our vision the gates of
day;
We only know that their barks no more
Sail with us DER life's stormy sea;
Yet somewhere. 1 know. on the unseen
shore,
They watch and beckon and wait for me.

THE THREE TA1LoRs.
LRurlineton Hawkeve


1t is the uppermost thought in some
Iowa minds that this state ought not
to hope for, and does not deserve, poll
teal honors of a national character,
like the speakership of the house, for
instance, unless it Is gift horse from
the insurgent ranch, and properly
branded. The friends of Judge Walter
l. Smith, congressman from the Ninth
district, who is a prominent candidate
for the speakership of The next house,
recently was given such a cordial well
come home by his constituents, includ-
ing many so-called progressive repub-
licans that the Register and Leader,
and the Marshalltown Times Republic
can, are constrained to sound a warn
ing TO the followers of Mr.. Cummins
The former paper declares Judge Smith
has not been able to figure anything
out of insurgency" and that accord
ingly he has nursed his prospect in the
camp of the regulars. BY 1.-The camp

citizens and residents of all contiguous
territory are justified in looking in
credulously at the next man who pro-
poses to build an interurban line. How
ever, these roads have been built in the
eastern states, thousands of miles of
them, and they are uniformly profit
able. Interurban securities have been
gaining favor in all financial markets
and there has never been time when
there was more money to be had in
the east for such investments than at
interurban development will reach
Iowa in time. The question which now
stirs the nerve centers of central Iowa
is Has this development actually come
to Grundy, Marshall and Story coun-
ties?"
The Times Republican has been de-
handing of an unwilling mayor and
city council that the interurban man
be given courteous treatment and a

are of too momentous Importance to
justify insult and constant reference
with vile epithet. Whether the man
actually has the capital back of him
sufficient to accomplish all that he
proposes, the Times Republican has no
means of knowing The gentleman is
comparatively a stranger but he does
not ask anybody to take his word or
his individual responsibility for any
thing. He offers bonded guarantee.
1t is his own offer without suggestion
from Marshalltown. He should be
called. If he fails to come up with his
bonds the Times Republican will then
join those who profess to believe that
he has no financial substance worthy
of time spent in considering. If he is
able to produce what he promises
Marshalltown and contiguous territory
have welcomed a deliverer who will
double the population of the district in
ten years and almost double the value
of real estate within the same period
The question of rates on the local
utilities sinks into minority altho this
gentleman offers the lowest rates that
any community in Iowa could ever rea-
sonably ask If the present owners of
the local utilities would offer the same
rates and agree to rehabilitate and ex-
tend their plant they would be entitled
TO a, renewal of their franchise without
street car extensions. but if this man
will offer the rates plus the street cal
extensions in eighteen months, plus an
extensive system Of interurbans with
in two and three years, the people Of
Marshalltown should lose no time ir
giving him franchise and helping him
to acquire the local properties. The
farmers of central Iowa should comt
forward with their free rights of way

A CHECK ON lYNcHING.

The recent impeachment and dis
charge of Frank Cazalas sheriff in Mo-
bile county, in Alabama. has probably
ended the lynching practice in Ala
bama and perhaps in the south, says
Golfers. When a prisoner was lynch
ed in the heart of the city of Mobile
last winter, after reports had spread
all over the city that mob would
visit the Jail that night and no addi-
tional precautions We're taken. the citi-
zens demanded that the sheriff be dis
charged in disgrace. The governor in
stituted Impeachment proceedings be-
fore the supreme court, and that tri-
bunal found the sheriff guilty of neglect
and ordered his discharge. That set
tect their prisoners against mobs or
lose their jobs and be put under public
odium. Many of the shrievalties in
that state pay from FIVE to thirty thou
sand dollars year under the fee sys-
tenn, and the loss OF these jobs is a
serious financial blow, not to speak of
the public disgrace. Since the Mobile
lynching half dozen mobs have been
formed to lynch as many prisoners in
different parts of the state. but the case
of Sheriff Cazalas had furnished the
object-lesson and the prisoners in each
case We're protected by military or spe-
cial deputy forces sufficient to defy the
mobs. The result was that there were
no lynchings. The prospects are that
the Impeachment plan has ended
lynching in Alabama.

prompts the Register and Leader to
add to dts fire alarm call:
'It would be an honor to Iowa to
secure the spealzership. But 1t is not
an honor worth the cost if it is to
mean merely a continuation of the
present domination of the house, and
influence is to be thrown in the direc-
ton Of the member from the Ninth
Judge Smith will be q Cannon man or
he will not be speaker. In this choice
the state will promptly forego the
honors."
Quoting the foregoing, the Times-Re-
publican is of the opinion that "the
Des Moines newspapers prompt defini-
tion.of the issue may be taken as a fair
presentation of the real political situa
ton in Iowa, as the Register and Lead
er is one of the prominent opponents
of a very formidable school of political
Thought in this state" Without paus-
ing to estimate the value of the pre-
cedent of the three tailors Of London,
who began their petition to the king
with the traditional, I'VE, the people
of England" The Hawk-Eye begs
leave to suggest that if only republic
cans in the insurgent camp are avail
able for the speakership it will be a
long lapse of the calendar before the
republicans elect another speaker or
control another congress. The republic
cans of other states, and of the nation
al party, do not, and will not. take
kindly to the suggestion that the only
hope of a continuance of the party is
thru it's disruption, that its life can
be retained only by its death, and that
the road to victory is thru disorganiza-
ton and insurgency. Any political or
ganization that repudiates the fund
mental principle of majority-rule is
preparing to dance at ite own wake.

SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.

The next term of the Iowa School for
the Deaf. at Council Bluffs. free TO all
deaf persons OF school age in the state,
will open Oct. 1. 1t is expected that all
pupils will be present on that date.
Officers of the institution will meet all
arriving trains on Oct. 1 and ., with
conveyanees. After these dates par
ents and pupils can not expect to be
called for and conveyed free to the
school
The Omaha, Council Bluffs & Inter
urban Railway Company now have
their extension completed to the gate
of the institution. 1t passes every
railroad depot in Council Bluffs, max
ing access to the school easy.
The deaf school is now occupying the
new and commodious fire proof build
ings, recently equipped at cost Of
nearly 100000, and parents need not
hesitate to return their children. as the
management conscientiously gives as
surance that the arrangeme nts are
complete safe and comfortable in every
way.
As precautionary measure it is
earnestly suggested that children be
vaccinated before leaving home to en-
ter the school, and that the superin-
tendent be advised of this fact by mail.
If children are semi co as RI arr;,,a IN

AN AGE OF GREAT THINGS.

Invention, achievement and discovery
are making such rapid strides that
people have about ceased to marvel at
anything. Nothing seems to be impos-
sible any more. The unattainable is
being surmounted day by day. The
limitations OF mans inventive genius,
his power TO perform and his ability to
endure have been broadened until that
which has hitherto appeared super
human no longer occasions surprise
We are living in an age of great
things. We expect them. We almost
expect the miraculous. And if these
great things do not occur at tolerably
frequent intervals we are prone to be-
come fretful and wonder why some
thing doesn't happen. We complain
that there is nothing doing. Surprise
consists in its not happening.
Shakespeare we'll said that All the
worlds a stage" 1t is truer today
than ever before. 1t is a stage of the
greatest activity and real enactment
since history began. Those occupying
the role of actors must perform great
things all the time in order to salts
factorily entertain those who look and
listen. 1t is an exacting and critical
audience 1t has been surfeited on the
commonplace. 1t demands big and
varied scenes and heroic acts. It will
hardly be thrilled and satiated unless
a veritable miracle is wrought.
And thus the prodigious play on
the worlds great stage rushes on
Wither? What may be expected wher
the curtain goes UP on the next act
Can we more than conjecture? Car
we get a peep behind the scenes an6
gain some idea, tho faint and intangi-
HE, of the next mighty development
of plot that delves into the realm OF
the unknown? Or will we await witt
patience the regular order of the play
| for which no libretto or synopsis ha.
/ been announced and ne content witt
what comes?

IS IT TOO GOOD TG BE True?

A local struggle over a public utility
franchise in Marshalltown has taken
on statewide interest in the PROPOSE
ton which has been made to guaran-
tee the building of an interurban rail-
road from Grundy Center to Ames thru
Marshalltown under a $4,000 bonded
forfeiture. 1t sounds too good to be
true, but the proposition has been made
in writing and it will take very little
time and no cost to find out whether it
is backed by the ability to put up the
bonds. All the city council of Mar
shalltoWn has to do is to call the gen.
tleman and make him show his cards
If he has the $4,000 in bonds to Sc
cure his guarantee the presumption
must be accepted that he knows what
he Is doing.

which they were constructed that her
