NEWS OF POST OFFICE.
Change Announced in Rural Route
Number Five.

Postmasters have been instructed
that the issuing OF the new green spe-
|cial delivery stamp that has been in
use several months has been discon-
ltinued by the department and the old
blue stamp with an engraving OF a
boy on wheel will be re-issued again.
The green stamp was too much like
the one-cent stamp and being about
the same size as other stamps of the
ORDINARY kind it was frequently over
looked and mail intended for. special
delivery was thus delayed So much
complaint came to the department OF
the new green stamp that the depart
ment decided to do away with it. The
local Office had just secured new
supply of the green stamps and will
dispose of these before returning to
the use of the old blue stamp.
| A change is announced in Rural
Route No. in Scott township that
will add about a mile and half to
the length of the route, but which will
accommodate about twelve new pa.
irons. The change originates at the
middle of the east line of section IL
and goes west and south around the
Ramsay mines and the school house
going east again and Joining the old
route at the Michael Hess corner.
The change will be greatly appreciate

PRESIDENT BURTON.
Building To Be Renovated and Insti-
tuition Launched On Larger
Field Of Usefulness.

The Board of Trustees of OskaloOsa
|of Dr.. Burton from the presidency of
the college. The reason given for his
withdrawal is that is family is trou-
bled with symptoms of tuberculosis,
and must so to warmer climate. He
intends to enter into educational
work elsewhere but has not definitely
decided any of the propositions that
have been extended.
The board accepted his resignation
and elected to fill the vacancy the

|neld several pastorates for that com,
munion in California. He is a gradu,
ate OF Central university with the

before the fall semester, but the date
has not been definitely arranged. In
conversation with the representative
OF the Herald, Dr. kizer said:
vi am not prepared at this time to
announce definitely the future plans
for the college, but / am carefully
canvassing the situation here with the
intent to sustain, improve and add to
the equipment and faculty as the
emergency demands. The college in
my estimation has the right to de-
mand favorable consideration from
prospective students in regular col
lege work, besides the. departments of
commerce, music and normal Among
the improvements that are contem-
Jlated Is a thorough renovation of the
college building, and the addition Of
a heating plant.
The control of the school will be
as heretofore, non-sectarian. but with
a strong religious atmosphere. The
Board of Trustees and myself will
endeavor to administer the affairs of
the college SO that the confidence and
respect OF the community will be
strengthened and retained"

In the Saturday Evening Post for
June 5th appeared an article on the
ator Beveridge. of Indiana, on the
Control of the Senate" 1t is
faithful and accurate portrayal of the
conditions as they have existed for
years, and as they are to be found
today under the Aldrich regime. But
the Senator is credited with more than
a mere desire to give facts. since it Is
generally accepted as certain that his
own seat will be contested next year
Mr.. Beveridge comments at length on
what he terms New England's wis
dom in keeping her senators contin-
uously at Washington, thus gaining
that power and Influence which has
long been deprived western states.
and then sums up mis- argument as
follows:
THE truth about this whole subject
is that when the states and sections
of the nation that are now railing at
New England's dominance in the Sen
ate, select men who faithfully reflect
their opinions after they get to the
Senate--when such states continue
their men in the house or Senate as
steadily as New England, those states
will become equally powerful with
New England, and that is the only
way by which the distribution OF
power among the various states can
be restored and maintained"
All of which might mean that, II
Indiana fails to return Alder J. Bev-
eridge to the Senate in 1910. what
little power the Hoosier state may
now have In shaping legislation will
be destroyed; which is very plausible

was occupied in taking a census OF

from that amount the proceeds will
