SURVEYORS ARE AT WORK IN
RIVAL CITY, AND osKALooSA
is ENCOURAGED.
osKALoosA WILL GIVE
ALL 1T CAN AFFORD
Three Different Tracts of Land Are in
View, and Commercial Club Favors
Fair Grounds Site-oskaloosa -.oks
Upon Original Deed as Antiquated
Document.

Iowa Central engineers have been
sent to Oskaloosa to make the sur
veys of the different tracts of land on
which the citizens of that place have
options providing the Iowa Central
shops are located in that city. Three
sites are in view, and the Commercial
Club favors the one known as the fair
grounds. The Oskaloosa view of the
original deed conveying the MARSHALL
town land occupied by the shops at
present, is that the document is anti
quated.
The Oskalosa Herald of Monday ev-
ening says of the work of surveying,
now in progress:
Following up the announcement
made to the Oskaloosa Commercial
Club committee last Friday, General
Manager Cutter, with his characters
tic enterprise and energy, sent his sur
veyors to Oskaloosa last night to go
over the ground and report on the
several proposed sites for the Iowa
Central shops, in case they are to be
located in Oskaloosa.
''The corps is in charge of Civil En-
gineer Cummings, and the work us in
progress today. Three sites are be-
ing surveyed. The fair grounds and
property north. extending to the COM
pany's property, wherein is located
the reservoir; the land Immediately
north of the round house extending to
the reservoir; and the Butler farm
southeast of the city, just outside the
corporation where the Iowa Central
and c., B. & @. tracks separate.
Each of the three tracts has some
advantages, but so far as the Com
mercial Club is concerned. it would
favor the fair grounds. This forty
acres and a strip running north to the
Iowa Central property is under option
and can be had at a reasonable fig
u1e Then, too, only two or three
property owners would have to be con-
suited, whereas, with the tract adjoin-
ing the present right of way, many
owners would have to be dealt with.
"The Butler tract southeast of town
is very desirable because of its size.
'lIle anu ullS lay VI lliS 'eeiis'' -
contains ia acres and is outside the
corporation limits. which would make
taxes much lower than they could be
in town.
THE outcome of the engineers visit
to Oskaloosa is of course all specula-
ton, but their presence here at so
early a date shows that the road
means business, and that the shops
will be permanently located either at
Marshalltown or Oskaloosa at no dis
tant date Meantime our people are
a unit in their desire to have them
come to Oskaloosa, and when the
time for action comes, they will re-
spond with all that they feel they can
afford to give.
Says Deed is Anticipated.
"Marshalltown is relying on holding
the shops without effort under the
provision of an old and antiquated
deed on record in the court house at
Marshalltown. The deed was made
to the Central Railroad of Iowa.

at the outset of the proceedings Mr.

party. stated that he deemed it unnec-

compartments came forward, submitted
timony to sustain it. He therefore
moved that the case be dismissed for
this reason, and the further reason
that the remonstrants had neither
authority, nor credentials. He said
the men who signed the protest were
not officers of the prohibition party
and therefore did not represent the
party, but acted in a personal capaci

 "These things have I spoken unto In the world ye shall have tribulation; {; but be of good cheer, have overcome the world,"-John XVI. S3.
 The time draws on apace when the Son of Man is about to take His last Journey. So He tells us for our com fort what provision He has made for us in His absence.
 When one leaves home for any length of time there Is always double work to be done. We must provide for the needs of the trip, and we must comfortable for those left behind. This preparation was made by our blessed Lord before He returned 10 the bosom of His Father and the joys of Heaven; that for Himself He did not, could not require anything. But for us He Sissfly SIsee fot teIs Hs wifi if gTsPas and receive you unto Myself that when left us for. a whole, until His work of Mesp%he Hs s Sas SSSmpets ssen II, each one our work to do in His absence We. are to prepare our selves (with that help, which He alone can give) place prepared for a prepared people; and prepared people for prepared plaee.
 
 hereafter. Eye hath not seen 1t, nor can the heart conceive Its blessedness, But we are sure of one thing: 1t will certainly as 1t viii be beyond ali that we deserve. One thing we do know: the preparation must take place wlthtn us. We know that If we could be with Christ we must be made like Him: if we would be happy where He Is, we must have no will but His And fur ther. we know that by nature we are r..WANn true, pure and truthful. And is this true of any of us? Passions. tastes, tempers. desires must all be brought newed in the spirits of our mind, our hearts changed and converted from sin to Godliness. To bring this about the work must be done here and now. It Is here we are to be made At to meet our God. and to become a pre- pared, people, for a prepared place.
 And now. pray you, notice the pro- cess by which this work is to be ef- fected. The portion and inheritance of the people of God in this fife Is to under 1t He will send ''the Comforter"
 A daily cross Is the Indispensable possession of servant oe Christ Christening Is the note and work of Is most distasteful to the natural man must be met and accepted as good and wholesome, since 1t comes from His hand More trials are to fall oh Gods elect than on others, more frequently and sharply.
 And what is to make up for all this? The promise, and the presence of the Comforter. And never yet has He failed them who trust in him!
 When our Lord bade His disciples to "be of good cheer" 1t must have seemed to them well nigh impossible There was everything, humanly speak ing, to harrass and depress. The world was speedily all in arms against them: and thev had to suffer the loss of all
