TO GET SHORT COURSE
Combined Effort viii Be Made For
Institution Next Year.

The board of directors OF the Oska
loosa Commercial Club held a meet
ing in their rooms in the court house
Tuesday evening, at which the prin
cipal item of business was regarding
the "short course" which the Farmers
Institute propose to conduct next win
ter in Oskaloosa. The officers of the
0skaloosa Retail Merchants Assoeia
ton and F. F. Everett, Willford Hull
and Thos. Soseman, representing the
Mahaska County Farmers Institute
met with the Commercial Club and the
proposition was discussed and heartily
endorsed by everyone present. The
commercial men will do everything in
their power to assist the farmers in
carrying out the plans which are now
being formulated for the short course.
The proposition of the dedication OF
the statue OF Chief Maha3ka was also
discussed and committee will confer
with Major Lacey and the officers of
the Red Men to arrange the details of
the program for the day. Other minor
matters were also brought up, but no
definite actions taken.

the hill tor" where their children gain
the rudiments OF an education enab
ling them to become men and women
capable OF continuing the good work
which their fathers have done. Sc
far only one farmer has been heard
who is willing to go before the com
mittee and urge the passage o. this
bill. On the other hand. hundreds OF
the substantial farmers OF the state
have written and are writing theii
members Of the legislature not to pass
any such legislation.
1t is equally noticeable that the
champions OF the idea of recognizing
the school laws are either at present
holding political positions or are in
school politics. the majority of whom
would be available material for some
OF the Offices to be created IL any such
a school law should be enacted as the
one at present contemplated.
These are few of the arguments as
they appear from the letters being re
ceived from the patrons of the schools
Of Iowa. why these patrons do moi
want the law changed Those inter
ested in the measure feel that 1t i
of such vital Importance that full and
free discussion should be had and Inai
the opinion OF the people should be ex
pressed as plainly as possible that the
members Of the legislature may be
governed thereby

TAX PAYING TIME,
County Treasurer's Office Takes On
Great Activity.

County Treasurer George Thompson
and his deputies, John Endieott and
Roy Rowland, are busy as bees this
week waiting on the tax payers of the
county. March being the last month
for the payment Of 1908 taxes, is the
busiest of the year and the work OF
the Office is exceedingly heavy even
with three men on the job. The col
lections this year are falling slightly
behind those of 1908, due partially to
the lowering of the levy in Oskaloosa.
The collections of the Office during the
month OF February amounted to $21,-
S44,73 about $4,000 less than during
the same period last year. It Is In
teresting to note how the daily collec-
tions increase as the end OF the time
for the payment of taxes draws near.
Before the 17th of February there had
been only one day when the daily col
lections amounted to over $1,000. But
on the 18th the daily report showed
total of $1,262.62; the 18th, ST.
1852; and the goth, $1,S53.79, while
the collections on the last day of the
month amounted to $2,S32.49.

TO MOVE WAREHOUSE
Thomas & Holmes Will Have New
Location And More Room.

Thomas & Holmes, 223 High avenue
West, dealers in implements and farm.
ers' supplies, are going to make some
big improvements to their property.
They will remove the warehouse now
located on First avenue West, just
east Of the Burlington tracks, to A
avenue West, just west of the Iowa
Central tracks. The warehouse will
be located on the south side of A
avenue and facing the tracks. The
old warehouse will be enlarged and
when completed will be sixty feet in
width and one hundred feet in length.
To make room for the warehouse the
old frame shack just north of the
ruins of the old Iowa Central depot
has been torn down.
The new building will be put on a
block foundation and this work has
been commenced. 1t will be near the
Iowa Central tracks, so that machines
and implements may be unloaded
from the car into the building. The
warehouse will have its own water
system and the machinery in the
place will be run by gasoline power.
The proprietors, Messrs. Thomas and
Holmes expect to install soon an
automobile department, where auto
mobiles will be bought, sold and re-
paired.
The warehouse was formerly To-
Gated on lots owned by the Burling,
ton company. The enlargement of the
building is necessary for the increas-
ing business which the company IL
doing in oskaloosa every season. The
location OF the big warehouse on A
avenue West win make great change
in the appearance of that locality and
will add materially to the 1909 i'm.
proyements in Oskaloosa.

FIGHTING THEM OVER
rades Tell Of Their Experience
In the Civil War.

"
Tuesday evening was the regular
meeting of Phil Kearney Post G. A. n.
with j. f, Lacey, Post Commander,
presiding. It was a very interesting
session. At the beginning Of the
year the Post Commander adopted a
rule that at each post meeting there
should be detailed by the commander
two or more comrades for the next
meeting night whose duty it should
be to tell some part of their army life.
The first detail was Ben Cruzen. s, j..
Dutton and j. b. Pearson. button
failed TO appear but Cruzen and Pear
lson were listened to with much inter-
est These comrades were both in
ljured in battle and Comrade Cruzen
was taken prisoner and part OF his
talk about his experience while in
prison was very affecting, bringing
tears to many eyes. We wish that
the talk might have been put on
record and preserved. Comrade Pear
lson's experiences after being wounded
have already been published IN the
Herald and the Des Moines Register
and Leader. The next ,detail con-
sisted of John Martin, Turner and
Dutten who again failed to appear and
the other two comyades gave way to
Major Lacey who told of meeting his
old time friend Weaver at Des Moines
and this time they were not in a
political fight but were old friends
Having a good time. Gomrade j. F,
McNeill told of his trip east to the
livery interesting and we should have
his experiences in the matter of Lin
coins burial preserved I'M some way
Jas he is enc of the seven men now liv.
ling who moved the body of Lincoln
secretly to keep 1t from being stolen.
The detaiI for Tuesday evening Mar.
", was again Martin, Turner and Dut-
ton who was again absent and A. N.
Church, of Scott township, was put on
IN his place. Church made fine talk
on the line of patriotism and was lis
tened to with much interest. Com
rade Turner had taken time to make
notes of his army life as a drummer
and he had very able paper but did
not confine himself to that alone and
was an hour in giving his outline of
his past struggles to preserve the
Union. Then came John Martin with
one of his off-hand talks which inter
ested the boys" for an hour and
fifteen minutes. and then he had to be
choked off. He said that it was like
being at a Methodist Love Feast and
that he did not realize that he had
been talking more than fifteen min.
