"JlMp HILLS VIEWS.

James J. Hill. the railroad mag
nate, believes that the country is civ
Ing great deal Of needless worry tic
the tariff question. He believes that
wave of prosperity is only awaiting
the adjournment Of congress to sweep
over the country, and that all that is
necessary is to get the tariff out OF
the way There are lots of people,
says Mr.. Hill, "who think legislation
will cure a toothache or cause great
disasters, and they are sitting up all
over the country with hands folded
and eyes turned toward Washington
afraid to go to work until the tariff is
settled.
What Mr.. Hill says is undoubtedly
true. 1t has grown to be habit with
the business interests to mark time
while the tariff is under consideration.
It may be that the change in the tar
If schedules can have no possible eff
feet on their business. Yet they will
put off everything until the tariff
Is settled" although they are interest
ed only in the most indirect way in
the terms of that settlement.
Mr.. Hill has boundless faith in the
west. Therefore, when he was told
that Wall street is already discounting
the coming prosperity, he took occas-
Ion to remark that wall street seems
10 be nightly important in New
York, but it no longer has any import,
Gnce to the moss of people out
side that city" He went on to
say that 1--WE have our crops and our
business in the west and Of late years
We have our own financial resources
and our own banks, sufficiently strong
TO carry us through emergencies" He
added that wall street cannot harm
anyone now except the man who goes
against the game
Mr.. Hill has been up against the
Wall street game himself and he is
very we'll qualified to speak as an ex-
pert on both subjects.

PRIZES FOR LAWNS.

The Council Bluffs Nonparell con
graduates the chief of police OF that
city for the success of his plan OF Of
fering prizes for the best kept lawns
There were more than sixty contest
ants for the prizes that have just been
awarded and considerable rivalry IN
the contest for the prizes.
But" says the Nonpareil, the pur'
pose of the plan was not so much to
see who would win The prizes as 1t
was to encourage the habit of giving
lawns proper care and attention. All
of the sixty and more, contestants VINO
have taken pride in preparing their
lawns for the inspection of the judges
will undoubtedly give more or less
care and attention to their premises
throughout the year, and neighbors OF
prize winners will naturally seek to
follow ll1eir example and improve their
owns lawns so that they will not suf'
fer by contrast. Thus, the beauty OF
the entire city is enhanced and con
siderable public. attention has been
centered on the subject Of clean and
attractive premises"
The Nonpareil hopes that the plan
of giving prizes for the best kept
lawns will be made permanent, and
that where there were sixty con
testant this year there may be twice
that number next year. 1t believes
that some organization should take up
the question of putting vacant lots to
some practical purpose, either by car
ing for them themselves or farming
them out to those who would care to
cultivate them; offering prizes to
those who succeed in securing the
largest crop or the greatest revenue
from tracts of certain size.
Why shouldn't Ottumwa attempt
something along the line of the Coun-
ell Bluffs plan? 1t Is not yet too late
to arrange some competition in the
care of lawns.

DR.. William Osler, the noted ply
stefan, in an address before the Ma
tional association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis, declared
that tits an open question whether
tuberculosis will be finally eradicated.
"It is foe." he said, that is deeply
'intrenched in the human race Hard
it will be to eradicate completely but
when we think of what has been done
in one generation, how the mortality
in many places has been reduced more
than SO per cent, indeed, in some
places 100 per cent, it is battle OF
hope, and SO long as we are fighting
with hope the victory is In sight"
Dr. Osler believed that the greatest
need in the campaign is to keep the
public awake and to arouse the in
terest of more men and women, be-
cause the campaign Is no longer one
entirely for the doctors.

Old But Not AGED,


Both Mr.. and Mrs. Veitch are In ex-
cellent health and have retained much
of the buoyant spirit of youth, not
permitting their years to wear upon
them with any perceptible sign of
age. They are happily ensconled in a
pretty residence at 604 Chester ave-
nue., where they are entertaining their
guests in honor of the singular event,
the fiftieth anniversary of their we'd
ding. But one cloud OF gloom has
arisen since planning today's celebra-
ton, the recent death of B.
G. Minteer, husband of the oldest
daughter, which has caused the cou-
pie to restrict the affair to relatives
and few dear friends, although more
than a hundred were originally plan
ned as the number Of guests to attend
the event.

question of COW culture is to be under
taken in Iowa. Prizes aggregating
81 900 have been offered which will be
divided among the owners of COWS

ter fat. These prizes are to be di-
vided as follows: $3.50 to the first, or

COW; 500 to. the third cow, and $500
to be divided among the next best ten
cows, prorated according to the
amount of butter fat produced by each

but it will stimulate competition
that should go far to advance, the
dairy interests of the state.

If the Times-Republican writer had
the honor Of being acquainted with
some of the Ottumwa P. E. o. mem
bers he would realize that he made a
very poor guess as to what the P. e.
O. stands for. The Ottumwa P. E. O.'s
are pretty, but there is not one the
least bit old. Perhaps though the
Marshalitown editor is trying to find
out just what the p o. secret is. He
may have noticed that they remained
silent when assailed by the charge
that P. E. O. stands for pigs Eat
Onions" and thought to goad them in
to telling their secret in order to
prove him bad guesser.
