Some excellent bulls are credited to
William Arolin, who was London
police Judge in the thirties Of the last
century. He once remarked to coun-
sci, "If you can show precisely at

ted and prove that the prisoner was
not there when he did 1t, he could moi
possibly have done it." And he'Sagely
added, I'VE cannot divest ourselves Of

R.e.. gon..l Old Iron.

rags, bones, old iron" is a cry not
nearly so familiar to the children Of
today as to those of Nhe sos For
the reason, like the chimney sweep and
the sundial maker, is becoming ex-
tinct.
His used to be profitable trade. The
wooden rags he bought, turned into
shoddy, brought thrice their cost. So
did the bones, which were ground up
for fertilizer. So did the iron, which,
melted, lived again.
Many millionaire manufacturing fam
lilies had their beginning In long
headed ragman. He first ground his
rags into shoddy. Then he spun the
shoddy into thread Then, a full-fedged
millman, he wove the thread into cloth.
But the municipalities of today con-
tract with single firms for the disposal
of their peoples refuse, and the old
ragman is disappearing because there
is so little left for him.
For-and this is the great secret -
while the ragman made a grand pronf
on what he bought, it was on the refuse
given him that he really throve.

the BREAD or iDLEnEss.

Idle bread is dangerous bread. 1t is
poison. The bread that is not earned
builds knaves, fools, criminals. The
bread of idleness is the narcotic of
virtue, usefulness, decency. 1t IS
moulded by weakness and eaten by
selflshness. Those who feed it are the
worst enemies, Of their own blood;
those who eat turn to snap like wolves
at the hands that fed them.
Still the weakness that provides and
the lazy gluttony that thrives on it in
creases. Foolish fondness keeps on
running young men and young women
who might amount to something and
be useful to themselves and Others.
Fathers work beyond the natural years
of labor and beyond the limits of their
strength to keep lazy louis in idleness
to pay for the clothes they wear, earn
the food they eat, hoping against hope
and assuming a false burden Of pater-
ity. The cheap pool hall knows The
type; the Saloons know him; his is g
familiar face in the five cent crap
game; the scarlet woman knows ano

AN Sorts efObiniions
St. Johns Chapel.

A certain element Of public sentiment
is expressed by Mr.. Richard Watson
Glider in the New York Evening Post,
In the following Lines on the Proposed
Demolition OF st. Johns Chapel:
Guardians Of holy trust
Who. in your rotting tenements,
Housed the people, till the offense
Rose to the Heaven Of the Just
Guardians Of an ancient trust
Who, lately, from these little ones
Dashed the cup Of water; now
Bind new laurels to your brow,
Fling to earth these sacred stones,
Give the altar to the dust!
Here the poor and friendless come
Desolate the tempted home
OF the friendless and the poor,
That your laurels may be sure!
Here beside the frowning walls
Where no more the wood-bird calls
Where once the little children played
Whose paradise We have betrayed,
Here let the temple low be laid,
Here bring the altar to the dust
Guardians Of a holy trust"

the land taxed for the whole cost Of
the ditch averages less than three
quarter sections per mile OF ditch, a
road district comprising land within
two miles in each direction of a paved
highway would take in sixteen quarter
sections to support each mile of paved
road. Surprising that the law appor-
toned this annual road cost or $500 IN
three parts, $3.50 upon the four abuttlng
quarter sections, $3.50 upon the special
road district and $500 upon the county
at large. The first charge would cost
each quarter section abutting paved
highway $3.50 per year The second
charge would cost each quarter section
In the special road district s9-3' per
wear and in a county like Marshall
in which CITY property comprises half
the taxable valuations only half OF the
third charge would fall upon the land,
leaving each Of the 1904 quarter sec
lions of farm land in this county To
pay six cents per annum for every mile
of paved road built.
Thus, under the present drainage
district law, farmers are actually
building $4,000 bitches at an annual
cost of $3.50 per quarter section for
twenty-five years and hence 1T can not
be considered visionary to give them a
law which will permit them to have
paved highways from their mail box TO
their department stores at a total an
nual cost of 1858 to the quarter sec
ton abutting, $9.43 to the quarter sec
ton lying within half a mile to two
miles OF the road and six cents to ev-
cry quarter section in the county for
every mile of such road built What
man has done man can do.

TRANSPORTATION QUESTION.
Cedar Falls Recordl

The Waterloo papers state that an
effort will be made at once to have
the normal school removed to that
place The buildings are to remain here
but the faculty and students will be
kidnapped and forcibly taken to that
place and President Seerley will be
taken bodily from his new $4,000 res
dence and compelled to live among the
boosters down the big creek. Transpor-
tation will be furnished by a line of
air ships Walter Wellman has been
appealed to in an effort to get his con-
sent to permit the use of his air mon
ster that was toi have taken him to
the north pole. He has been assured
that wind enough to initiate 1t will be
available at all times at the Waterloo
end of the route Some OF the boosters
rather favor the placing of a great
wire cable high in the ar and have
huge baskets suspended therefrom that
would hold from fifty to a hundred
people. The motive power would be
given the basket in covering the dis
lance between the two towns. The
cable would be supported by captive
balloons. The plan of removing the
normal is so intensely practicable that
the members of the legislature will fall
over each other in an effort to be the
first to introduce bill providing Tor
the transfer To have faculty Of 100
members and the 1900 students reside
seven miles from the school ought to
suggest its feasibility to anyone of rea-
sonable Judgment. The Waterloo boost
ers are to be commended for. the bril-
liant suggestion.

The False "cift Of Tongues"

One member of the band who went
forth into foreign lands equipped only
with the gift of tongues" has returned
to admit the gift was not of God. A
year or more ago the movement 50
named was rife in parts of this country
and several accounts of manifesto
tions" were presented in this paper.
Now The Evening Messenger (Cleve-
land) gives the story of Mabel Collins,
"a pretty girl of 1S years." who, hav
ing succeeded in returning home after
wanderings in India and South Ameri-
ca, Cooks like a woman of So" The
story in her own words is this:
1--WE were driven out of New York
We were members of the Holy Ghost
sect and we had the gift of tongues and
went out to teach the rest of the world
the real Christ. We decided to sail to
London. We escaped great ship
wreck, but they would not receive US
there. Then six Of us got the call to
go to India We went from london
and reached Calcutta in July. Mr..
McElroy, who led us, thought we could
do great things in India.
Besides me, there were three girls
from New York and two from Phila-
delphia. We nearly starved in Calcutta
and went to the north. We reached
Benares a month later There two of
our girls disappeared. They were very
pretty and there were some Indians we
met who liked them very much We
were destitute, and the girls-well, they
Just vanished. We didn't complain to
the authorities, because we knew pretty
well where they had gone. They are
now in harems and I can't blame them
much We did not have the real gift.
and life was far more terrible than I
can tell you.
Again we went north to Lucknow.
Another girl, Mabel Charles, Of New
York, was taken from us one night
after we had camped for the night.
There were some wild hill men who
rode down and stopped at our camp
Next morning all were gone. There
were only three of us left, Mr.. McElroy,
and Lille Thomas and I, and we went
back to Calcutta. From there we
sailed TO Buenos Aires to join the 9TH
ers We had even harder times In
Argentina than in India. Then my
parents succeeded in getting me home.
Our gift Of tongues was not from God.
1t was from some devil"

tAlden Times)

The Iowa river, between Alden and
Eldora, attracted the attention of the
earliest trappers and hunters because
of it's promise of excellent water pow
er privileges. This has been utilizea
but only partially. Fifteen mill sites.
at one time and another, have. in turn
been the scene of activity, but these
have dwindled until now there are but
six sets of wheels taking power from
the water as 1t passes in the entire
district.
From Alden to Eldora the river lies
in a lime stone canon Of great natural
beauty, furnishing impregnable retain
ing walls for extensive reservoirs.
Why doesn't somebody see this? Why
doesn't somebody in this age of cleo
trio transmission understand the fail
ure of the isolated Touring mills, which
could not withstand the competition
of larger mills, brought to their doors
by the railroads, is by no means an
argument against the power itself? The
power is there. There is no manner
of doubt about it. The only question
is how to utilize 1t. Converting 1t into
electricity to light our towns, neat our
homes. propel our interurfban railroads
and drive our machinery of one kind
and another is the logical answer.
In conversation the other day we
learned something on the subject we
had not known before. A project into
which some Des Moines capital was to
enter, proposed to build a series Of ten
concrete dams along the course and
equip them with turbines. Sufficient
examination was made to show that
these could be built and put in oper-
alton without overlooking an acre OF
valuable land. But. 1t seems, the death
Of e. S. Ellsworth, who had interested
himself in the matter sufficiently to
get options on part Of the property
needed and had even purchased two
of the old mill sites, has left the sub
ject almost an outcast. Last winter

bring the matter to the front again,

the surprise of their lives by putting IN
their hands a detailed statement OF
the parish's finances. 1t owns pro-
ductive property of the taxed valuation

amount of $370,946; no interest IS
collected on these. Other assets swell
the total corporation property to $14.-

was about $4,000. Besides Trinity

the purchase Of strip OF land across
the north side Of the Frank Slayton

THE oD1ous COMPARISON.
fOdaholt chronicle)


While we cannot endorse some of the
recommendation in Governor Garsts
message, we are free to say that it is
one of the ablest state papers ever is
sued from the office of an Iowa exec
,rtive. The author knows the needs
of the state and is familiar with every
phase of it's government. He has been
identified with the legislation enacted
during the past sixteen years and no
mans opinion in the matter OF future
legislation is entitled to more weight.
Governor Garst has the courage of his
convictions He has not hesitated to
point out abuses and recommend reme-
dies. and he speaks in the positive way
that is characteristic of the veteran
senator. In striking contrast Is the
message of his successor. Governor
Carroll seems to be afraid OF offending
