WOMAN AND HOUsEWORK

It IS strange statement that a woman economist has made in an address to girl strik- CTS in New York City. She ayers that mere man has taken away the normal occupations of Women Hence woman now seeks to enter the industrial field of man. The work that our grandmothers and mothers used to do is now performed in factories, and hence her proposi- ton IS that the only way for women to progress IS to follow men into the factories and try by competition to win back some of the work that was formerly their own.
 But what has been the motive underlying this industrial change? Has it not been, to increase output, through the use of machinery and the application of invention, thus reducing prices to the consumer and raising the standard of liv
 ing! If man has taken away some work for merly done by woman, 1t has been for her own good. There remains ample work in the house hold for woman to perform, if she will. Talors and man mIliners flourish in their shops at tie expense of husbands and fathers, because so many women do not know how to make their own gowns and trim their own hats or because. II they do know how, they won't, and there's an end ont Thousands of bakers pursue more or less unsatisfactory industry because millions of housewives will not make bread and pies at home The modern woman does not perform these tasks because she frankly does not like them. The work of the home has not been take, away from her; it is done by others because she prefers to let them do it. Furthermore tbe mere men are willing to pay the bills for her leisure Really, the suffragettes and the lady soclologlsts should cease their troubling.

was all afiame. The little girl escaped
unburned, but the little boy received
quite few burns about the lower
limbs. Medical aid was summoned as
quickly as possible, and tho the wounds
were thought to be quite severe his
change came, and at noon, he died. The
sorrowing parents and other relatives
have the sympathy of all.
Rev. Mr.. Holman, of Slater, preached

little body was laid to rest in the Ro-
land cemetery.

Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, Aug. I'm. j. Tobin
and the insurgent faction of the
knights Of Pythias Of Iowa were de-
feated in the final round of the most
bitter contest that has been waged
within the ranks Of the grand lodge,
which has seen many warm contests.
DR.. j. G. Mccoy, Of Corydon, the So
called Salinger machine candidate, was
elected chancellor commander last
night, defeating Tobin by the close
vote Of 1872 to s14.
This vote was taken in the grand
lodge after an effort had been made to
exclude Tobin from participation
therein and to prevent his friends from
placing his name in nomination on the
ground that he was disqualified.
The fight for Mccoy and against To-
bin was led by B. I. Salinger Of Car
roll. It was sensational in the extreme.
1t is charged that Salinger has organ
lied q ring within the order, and the
hands of some Of the former leaders
lin the organization were against him
Including Bernard Murphy, of Vinton
In response to the charges against
Sahngef, charges were filed against
Tobin to the effect that he had writ
ten letters to members of the order
soliciting their votes in his candidacy
Ia thing said to be forbidden by one Of
the laws of the order. On this charge
the executive committee, which is con-
trolled by Salinger, proceeded to dis
qualify Mr.. Tobin by a vote of 8 tc
2 and to suspend him by paper de.
cree for eighteen months.
This, it was supposed, would pre-
clude him from making the race fol
grand chancellor. His friends, how.
ever, determined to present his name il
the grand lodge and this was done.
The remainder of the Salinger slate
was elected.

all the money locally to build the
road. This at first may seem almost
an impossible thing to do and We will
now proceed to outline the plan to raise
the necessary amount OF money to build
this road. The road as now proposed
is to start at Oskaloosa, from there
to Barnes City, from Barnes City 10
Montezuma, from there to Malcolm and
to Tama, passing thru Sheridan. and
|if every man who will be benefited
by this road will do his part, 1t will
be an easy matter 10 raise the neces-
sary amount OF money. You must not
infer from this remark that 1t Is pro-
posed to ask the people In the locality
in which this road Is to run to donate
enough money to build this line. Not
SO, we are not asking a dollar or do
nation from any one, we simply want
cooperation. 1t Is proposed to build
what we call a combination road. In
which the passenger business will be
handled by gasoline motor cars, and
the freight business will be handled
by steam locomotives. the same as any
steam road. the motor cars that are
to be used on this road are known
as the Mckeen Motor cars, and are
built by the Union Pacific Railway
company at Omaha, Neb.
"These cars are built upon the same
line as the automobile, and are guar
anteed to carry from seventy to enghty
passengers to the car, and will climb
grade of per cent loaded, If neces-
sary. altho we do not expect to
have any such grades on this line
BY using these cars we can give pre-
cisely the same service as the cleo
trio interurban, and greatly reduce
the cost of construction. We have es-
timated that an electric road thru
this section would cost at present
market prices of material at least
$4,000 per mile net. while the road
we propose can be built and equipped
for $4,000 for each mile OF lire built,
or saving OF $1,000 per mile of track
and owing to the great difference In
the cost, we would not advise the
building Of AN electric line at this
/ time. The road may be electrified at
any time in the future"

Grundy Center, Aug. 12.-Two games
Of baseball were played here at the
baseball tournament yesterday, the
first between Union and Grundy and
the second between Union and Conrad.
JEFFERSON, Of the Waterloo league team
pitched for Union against Grundy and
pitched a strong game. Hasbrouck and
Myers were the battery for Grundy.
Grundy led until the seventh inning.
when Union ran in three scores an a
base on balls, a hit and an error.
1t was an exciting game from start to
finish. Following y the score: Grundy
Center 2. Union 4.
In the second game Union had the
lead from the start and won handily
by a score Of 8 to 0. The umpiring Of
Wilton, of Union, was so unsatisfactory
that the Grundy team threatened to
forfeit the game rather than stand for
his decisions In the second game, he
was accused Of favoring Union at q
very critical time.
Two more games will be played to-
day, Grundy and Dysart playing the
first game and Union playing the win
ner.

West Union claims that It is the
first town or city in Iowa to have in
operation an automatic shoe shining
machine For some days past there
has been in operation in the Ed Dor
land barber shop here a machine that
blacks and polishes shoes for five cents
a pair without the use, of the human
hand at any stage of the process. A
nickel deposited in slot followed by
a push on a button causes wheels to
revolve by the force Of electric current,
brushes pass over and around the shoe
and remove the dust, then a receptacle
for liquid backing passes and shoots
the liquid upon the shoe, then the
brushes pass over and around the shoe
five times more and it is nicely pol
dshed, when the machine stops. Then
by another push Of the burton and
without the deposit Of another coin the
machine is set in operation again and
repeats the operation on the other
foot.
