DUTY

BY ALICE VAN LEER CARRICK
It's better to like your milk and bread,
It's better to want to go to bed,
For II you sigh
And sob and cry.
What foolish, useless tears you shed.
Suppose the rain came every day,
What would the little flowers say?
They could never grow
II the sun, you know,
Didn't come out some time to play.
Just try to like the things you should
It's ever SO easy to be good
When you want to be.
Sometimes you might see
How w-o-u-l-d spells could

MUD Is BURYlNG
THE STEAMER OHIO

Seattle, Sept. 2.-Five thousand
dollars worth of tewelry has been
recovered by divers from the wrecked
steamer Ohio which lies submerged
in Carter's bay, where she was beach
ed by Captain Johnson, according to
wireless dispatch received here from
the steamer Humboldt which is en-
route from Skagway to Seattle.
The work OF the divers, according
to the dispatch, is being delayed and
hampered by mud driven into the
hull OF the steamer by the current
OF a creek emptying into the bay
near by. No bodies have been found
yet and the divers report so much
mud in and around the hull that II
has been impossible to determine the
extent OF the damage done by the
rock on which the Ohio struck.

cRowINe WOOL IN IOWA.

Monday and Tuesday OF last week
Geo. r. Underhill took in wool at Os-
kaloosa, and Wednesday and Thurs.
day at New Sharon, where NJ. S.
Downey is his local representative.
About 10000 lbs. in all was received
at the two places and he expects to
get $4,000 lbs. at Cedar. Mr.. Under
hill was highly pleased with the gen
eral condition OF the wool. Farmers
are awakening to the fact that owing
TO the high price OF wool and mutton
a flock OF sheep Is profitable adjunct
to the farm. Being largely a grazing
animal they are not so susceptible to
disease and they do not require so
much grain to get them ready for mar
ket as do hogs which have formerly
been the predominating feature OF
the Iowa farm.

THE WIRE, MONUMENT.

Robert Kissick, of Oskaloosa, in his
report as Patriotic Instructor, Depart
ment of Iowa, G. A. R., made to the
Department Encampment held at Fort
Dodge, June $40, 1909, for the time
he served under the administration
of Commander Milliman, expressed
himself on the Wirz Monument as
follows:
Comrades, | may be pardoned fol
referring herein to the monument
publicly dedicated at AndersOnville,
Georgia, May II, 1909, surrounded
with Confederate flags and some 5000
Southerners, mostly Georgians,' in
nonor of the Infamous Captain Wirz,
commander of the AndersOnville prls-
on, wherein $4,000 Union soldiers
died-30O dying in one day, and 1000
in one month. They are at rest in
the silent city of the dead near An
Jacksonville, heroic martyrs of the
barbarism of a civilization based on
human slavery. Their last battle was
daily and hourly struggle for life
In that silent city of the dead, the
government of the United States has
erected an iron tablet on which is in
scribed these words:
Rest on, embalmed and sainted dead
Dear as the blood ye gave,
No impious footsteps here shall
tread
The heritage of your grave
"Wirz, the deliberate destroyer and
murderer of defenseless prisoners OF
war, was legally tried at Washington
by a military court, justly found
guilty and was executed, November
10, 1865, and appropriately buried in
the old capitol prison grounds beside
Atzerott, one of the Conspirators to
take the life of President Lincoln.
Before the erection OF this monu
ment was contemplated, | would not
have believed that any community OF
Organization of people could have
been found in America having the
poor judgment and bad taste to will
ingly and gladly erect and dedicate
a monument in honor OF such a hui
man monster of rfiendish cruelty as
Wirz. Every true American will
spurn the monument as an insult to
brave men and true American patriot:

, Comrades, let us see to, it that
these martyred dead shall not have
died in vain, All ages will remember
them, and their death will ever be a
memorial in the land for which they
gave the last full measure of devo,
ton. The children of America
should be taught to honor them for
all time. The honor of the children
will be their greatest monument

In giving the Cincinnati people some
definite idea of the lines centering in
Indianapolis, Mr.. Brady went into
many details. He showed by figures
that the interurban lines had created
their own travel, and he declared that
in Indiana that travel seemed to be
increasing ten per cent a year.
Many of you" he said, remember
the Indianapolis OF fifteen years ago,
before a single interurban railroad en-
tered its boundaries. Credit for the
great change is. of course, not due to
any one cause, but | venture to assert
that if you will question any high class
merchant or other business man as to
the reason he will say that it is due
principally to the interurban lines.
"Of these lines there are at the
present time eleven-all built within
few weeks, will, with their connec-

ninety-two counties of the state,
practically fifty-seven per cent of the
area of the state. In these counties
dwell something more than two-thirds
OF the population of the state, amount
ing to almost 10000 OF the largest
cities of the state, all but Evansville
and South Bend, are now connected
by interurban railroads with Indian
apolis, and South Bend will be added
to the list within three months.
''The converging of these eleven
lines into Indianapolis has in effect
been to extend tremendously the COM
mercial limits of Indianapolis. Be.
tween 25 and $50 passenger cars are
operating over the Interurban lines
into various Indianapolis country
districts. Residents of out counties
who formerly came to indianapolis
but once or twice a year are now to
be seen weekly in its streets. The

out very large part of indiana cen
tiers into Indianapolis to an extent
unheard of before the building of the

HORTICULTURAL CONGRESS.

An important event in the United
States in 1909 will be the second an
nual exposition of the National Horti
cultural Congress, which will be given
at Council Bluffs, Nov. Is to 20. The
exposition of 1908 was unique. 1t was
the first of its character to be held
anywhere. 1t was the result of a new
idea conceived by few vigorous
minds and executed with astonishing
alacrity The preliminary work was
not begun until early in the summer
OF that year, and the organization was
not completed until later. An immense
brick auditorium, steam heated and
capable. of holding 5000 people was
erected and equipped In little more
than a month. The scope of the en-
terprise was outlined and the plans
explained to fruit growers throughout
the country in the short time that re
mained before the opening. Yet Win
this, hasty preparation twenty-one
states were represented with fruits
grown from Maine to California, from
Texas to Minnesota, making possible
I
most superbly beautiful exposition
which was the wonder and delight OF
the thousands of visitors who came
from all parts of the country.
The 1909 exposition will be of the
same character but of a magnitude
much greater and more comprehens
i've. More than one hundred of the
best known horticulturists in the Uni
ted States are actively engaged IL
promoting the interests of the exposl
ton. The National horticultural Con
| gress is an organization representing
| the leading horticulturists of the
country, and its sole object is the
| promotion of the. horticultural welfare
| of every locality of every state. TWep
ty-eight states are now represented II
the organization. The work has as
sumed gigantic proportions and h'
1909 exposition will be more thai
twice as large as that of 1908, requlr
ing doubling the capacity of the audl
forum at Council Bluffs. ... ~

to the law of the road in the state

vehicles people driving on the public
highway should know the rights OF
