sYsRs AND HE MOON LAW

Attorney General Byers has given
out an opinion on the Noon law sup
porting his Interpretation of the law
by citations and argument that have
a convincing sound and appearance
A point raised by the attorney gen
eral is as to what resolutions OF consent
the legislature was dealing with when
It used the following language:
IN all cities and towns where
greater number OF persons than are
lprovided in section one % hereof Zone
10 every thousand population), now
hold resolutions of consent 10 sell in
toxicaJing liquors at retail, il shall not
be mandatory for city or town
icouncils TO cancel or withdraw a sui
4 ticient number of such resolutions n
consent 10 comply with the provisions
of section one % hereof and such res
olutions of consent may be renewed,
etc.
Mr.. Byers insists that it was dealing
with the resolutions in existence at the
alme OF the passage Of the act ana
holds that exemptions apply only -
persons holding resolutions OF consent
at the time the act was approved by
the governor.
He gives as grounds for his oonstruc-
,tion that The act was a remedial one
designated 70 restrict and 70 some TX
Itent cure q. recognized evil and quotes
authorities 70 show that the rule is
well established that a remedial statute
will be construed as applicable 70 a
pre-existing and continuing condition
and that il IS the business Of the court

the mischief and advance the remedy.
Many authorities are cited as bearing
on this construction Of the law and To
the layman in law Nj Byers appears
to have excellent fertilization in his
contention
He insists that 10 hold otherwise
would fail to cure any evil and simply
make the act mere trick and give ii
an absurd and ridiculous effect, q con-
clusion in which all will agree with
him, advances that it was the evident
intent Of the legislature 70 limit OK
emptions and resolution TO the time Of
the approval Of the act and that ting
statutes Of the state provide that the
courts shall construe the chapter re-
Eating to intoxicating liquors 50 as Il

It's, however question of tina in
terpretation the courts shall put up3r

dslature meantto curb an eveil and ina
the resolutions hurried thru were iii
rectly in evasion Of the law. Mr.. By

chance in this litigation 10 ESTABLISH

There is such a thing as too much
enterprise. At least that is what
the people of Waterloo believe. The
other morning one of the manufac-
turers of that city started out with
an entire trainload of his products.
He wanted the whole world to know
it. He procured siren whistle,
one of those affairs which give a fell
low the jim-jams and lead him to
believe that some frightful thing is
happening. The manufacturer only
considered the fact that it made
more noise than anything else he
could escape. People tumbled out
of their beds in the early morning
hour and police headquarters was
soon the center of a storm. As a
result the siren whistle will be
heard in Waterloo no more Here
after the manufacturers will be COM
PEELED to make themselves less con-
spicuous

KEN EMBEK lhE PkUPhtIS
1t is believed everywhere that a
prophet is not without honor save
IN his own country and too often this
is true but the people of central Iowa
should not permit so common an
error to hide the fact that Lennox
Torrid Zone furnaces have the utmost
honor IN all other countries east, west,
north and south.
For instance the largest jobber of
furnaces in the Canadian Northwest
years ago selected Lennox steel
furnaces for his use turnout that
northern climate because of their
powerful heating capacity from their
upright steel construction and indirect
radiators.
Again, big dealers in Cincinnati,
Pittsburg and Indianapolis are send
ing west to Marshalltown for Lennox
furnaces because of their gas tight
steel construction being so superior
to all cast iron sectional furnaces on
the market.
Then, thruout Kansas, Oklahoma
and Texas, residence and public build
ing heating is done very largely with
Lennox steel furnaces because of their
simplicity. Dealers can set them
readily, people can operate them as
easily as any kitchen range and they
are long lived and good heaters.
In Iowa, Nebraska, the Dakotas,
Minnesota, Illinois and Wisconsin
they are sold everywhere.
But it is out west that the Lennox
prophets are in greatest honor. For
years the biggest dealer in Denver
has sold Lennox furnaces. Now no.
other furnace can exceed the Eennox
in Spokane, Tacoma, Seattle, Port
land or San Francisco while at Los
Angeles the dealer who does 90 per
cent of all the heating business in
that vicinity handles Lennox furnaces
and recently has secured the contract
for heating the million dollar Hunt
ington residence in Pasadena with
Lennox furnaces.
Not long ago the San Francisco dealer installed
Lennox furnaces in almost all of the ward school
buildings of San Jose, CAL. and car loads of these
furnaces are going westward over the Great Divide
from the Marshalltown factory every week.

at Petersburg. Del, Thursday. and whose
burial will take place at Druid Ridge
cemetery Monday. was noted as one of
the most unique political campaigners Of
the Diamond state. THE Fiddling Cam
paigner'' was the term with which he was
generally known throughout the state. for
while others depended upon oratory in
their quest for votes, Gov. Reynolds
pinned his faith and trust to the sooth-
ing. penetrating and sympathetic strains
OF the violin. He was like that other
campaigner. Gov. Bob Taylor of Ten
nessee. who .'violined" his way to the
hearts of his people.
Gov. Reynolds was violinist of abil-
ity. Descending from the hustings with
his box and bow he would play for
his audience"
Gov Reynolds first adopted this ef-
fective method of vote-getting in the
campaign of 1890. when he was nom
mated by the democrats for governor
against the Dover millionaire packer.

from Delaware. His campaign was prac-
tically a house-to-house canvass, and

John W. Reid Charges That His

John w Reid Of 425 NJ street northeast

in capturing a dog belonging to him.
Now, this dog is no ordinary one. 1t has

is terrifying. but he was never known to

change for much money in view of the
fact that on two known occasions he pre-
vented the entrance of burglars at night
and on various occasions my wife and
children have regarded him as equivalent
to a nearby policeman In the matter or
protection in the daytime as well as at
night. He is a dog Of remarkable intel

liable acquisitions; therefore you can un-
derstand why members of this family ap-
preciate Bobbie.'
This animal the dog catchers threw a
net over recently, tossed him In the
pound wagon with lot of common ours
and locked him in the pound.
Near the gate In front or my residence
the men threw net over Bobbie and in
a cruel manner wrenched the tag from
his collar and threw 1t into the yard.
Then they threw the dog into the wagon.
Notwithstanding the fact that my wife
and Edith, my daughter, insisted that the
tag was on when the dog>catchers came
and the license was in the house. The dog
was hauled TO the pound, and my wife
and daughter, who are of nervous
temperament, were SO unstrung by the

ARMY CONVICT AN INVENTOR.
Government to Test Searchlight o
Officer Who Is in Prison.

Lieut.. Edward Gottlieb left the United
States Army at New York convicted
felon with a f1ve-year term in prison
ahead of him for the misuse of funds.
The War Department has ordered a
test Of his invention. a new searchlight,
at Fortress Monroe, Va.
Lieut.. Gottlieb was engaged several
years in perfecting his invention. He had
practically completed 1t when he was or
dered before a court-martial. Maj W. c.
Davis, who was ordered to Boston to
examine it, found Gottlieb's searchlight
a great improvement over others in use:
that 1t is more economical and can be
operated from a distance. On Maj Davis
recommendation the test at Fortress
Monroe was ordered.
Lieut.. Gottlieb will not profit from his
invention, as the inventions of officers of
the army and navy become the property
Of the government.
