 During the month of November all incoming and outgoing mails are be- ing weighed af our station, giving the railroad employees some extra work.
 The railroad company Is trying b ascertain whether the government did not ret the better of the deal when the last contrsct for carrying the mails was made.
 When the weighing on which that contract was based, was under way, the government saw to 1t that no sur plus weight was carried in the mail cans, such ~ extra sacks, etc. Thene sacks were at that time being returned by freight. In this manner and in others, the weights carried were re- duced to . minimum and now the rail- road company is endeavoring 10 ascer- tain, according to reports, whether condifiors have reverted to . normal status, and whether they are carrying more weight than they figured on caf- fying.

REPUBLICAN IOWA,

Under 1t factories have sprung up as II
by magic and our industries have be-
come 80 diversified that today we are
capable Of producing almost every arti-
Gle that civilized country needs. The
great war debt of s3,000,000,000 has
been practically extinguished. We have
progressed marvelously. There were at
that time less than 10000 miles of rail-
road in the United States; today there
are 100000 miles of railroad. and under
the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt
legislation was enacted. to be per-
fected under the administration OF Will
liam H. Taft, to correct the abuses
which had crept in to the transporta-
ton system of our country: so that to-
day substantially all men under similar
conditions, receive equal treatment. and
under the operation of economic forces
the average charge for carrying the
products of this country on the rail-
roads is mills per ton per mile. which
is less than half the charge for trans
portation in any other country OF the
world might say in this connection
that we have one-half of the railroad
mileage of the world and one-third of
the products of the whole civilized
world are made on the farm and in the
factory and are produced in the mines
of the United States. Yet you hear
people talk about legislating for Eu-
rope, and letting their products into
this country free of duty-products
made at a labor cost half of what 1t is
in this country. Who supports our
schools? Who pays our taxes? Who
builds our railroads? Surely it is not
the foreigner, and why should we give
him our unrestricted markets.

LIE Beau, S. D., Oct. 6.-That truth
is stranger than fiction was demon
strated in remarkable manner in this
city today. Among the strangers who
arrived last night was an elderly man,
who registered as W. p. Axter. of Ce-
dar Rapids, Iowa. This morning while
standing idly watching the passengers
alighting from an incoming train he
saw q man whom he thought he rec
ognized. Following him to the Hotel
LeBeau he waited around the lobby
for time and then went to look at
the hotel register There he read a
name that gave him shock. 1t was
II. Axter, Lincoln. Neb." He hurried
into the dining room, found the man he
wanted, and not waiting to reach his
side he shouted: Harry dear old Har-
ry! Don't you know me?"
The man addressed leaped from his
chair. why, Bill" he said Il never ex-
pected to see you again. They en-
braced and kissed each other. to the
establishment of about two score
diners. W. P. and II. Az
ter are brothers. They came
to the west from Maine twenty
five years ago and settled on farm
in Iowa. A few years later they had a
quarrel and Harry left the homestead.
w. p said he had made many in
quiries regarding the whereabouts OF
his brother. but could never find any
trace of him. Harry thought his broth
er was dead. He said he had read OF
his brothers death in a railroad acci-
dent and never inquired further. 1t de-
