DREpGE THE LAKES.
Mason City Globe-Gazette.1

lMaSon City Globe-GaZette.1
The way to discover whether the
people of Iowa or any other state are
in favor of the conservation of their
resources is to begin by doing some
thing practical. For number Of
years the people about the Iowa
lakes have been asking for the re-
tentfon to Iowa of these lakes by
some method of either getting more
water in them or by dredging and
cleaning them for the use of the
people who love a breathing and a
resting spell in the hot summer time
State Fish and Game Warden George
A. Lincoln has made his report to
the legislature as to the needs of the
dredging Of certain lakes and streams
for the purpose of conserving these
health giving bodies of water as well
as making fishing places for the peo-
pie of Iowa and he estimates that
the sum of $4,000 would buy a
dredging outfit which could be placed
aboard car and transported from
one lake to another. If the legislature
can afford to appropriate 100000

Il the slush funds might be diverted

A Des Moines man has actually

old enough to set up and take notice
of an army of worthless wife deserters

families either inside or out of the
penitentiary.
The report that a dog went mad at

Actually, farm mortgage is as

Why wouldn't it be better to tax

Some persons seem to have banked
too much on the Taft smile. He isn't
easy and while the smile doesn't come
off very little is being pulled off by
the gentlemen who make specially

PASS THE PLUM AROUND.
AOnac Ti,nac

When the bill requiring two per
cent interest on deposits of state
money came up, there was little
joker in it that started up the same
old howl from Des Moines. Hereto
fore the state funds have been depos-
tied exclusively in Des Moines banks,
the new bill provides and makes 1t a
part of the law that the money be de-
posted in the smaller banks all over
the state. This would take a. large
portion of the coin out of the Des
Moines banks, and of course would
cut quite a hole in their deposits
They have had this plum long enough.

SOME SANE QUESTIONS.

Is there not logical reason to assume
that in many counties prohibition will
be impossible Of enforcement? If so
1t was in the eighties and nineties why
not again under like conditions and
influences?
On the part of all who desire better
moral conditions, is 1t not wiser to
continue to encourage the moral
growth in evidence under a combina-
ton of restraint and prohibition? In
two years all mulct licenses expire,
and dealers In liquor must go to the

COAL FIELDS, OLD AND NEW.
lOgden Reporter

The city Of Boone, which for years
was noted for its immense adjacent
coal fields, must surrender it's glory.
The mines have played out, and only a
few miners are kept employed. The
fields surrounding Ogden and the west
part of the county have every promise
OF being much larger than Boone ever
was, and new fields are developing
most every week. The mines to the
north are in active operation with a
large force of men and the new shaft
south is being sunk rapidly, and other
new shafts will be sunk this summer.

LOCAL PROHIBITION POSSIBLE.

The next best thing is local prohibi-
ton This is easily possible in every
community where the majority desires
it. AS long as local license persists no
constitutional amendment can be
passed, and after all, we ought to have
no desire to rule any but our own COM
munity. AS soon as the moral fight has
been carried VIGOROUSLY into practt-
cally every community. then statewide
prohibition will be both fair and prac-
teal We should ask no more than
rule of the majority. Even tho the
majority is often wrong, the whole
principle of American rule is based on
this expression of the public will.
