Here is what a Burlington sports.
man says of quail: "The quails are
plump and tender this year, and there
Is to be found a fair lot Of them by
the men who knows where to look. It
has been peculiar season SO far.
Three times I had to hustle my quail
back to town and to the ice chest to
keep them from spelling, ] do not re-
member such very warm days during
the quail season in all the years of my
hunting" Keokuk hunters speak very
much in the same manner. One hunt.
er complained that his dog could not
stand the firing work in the warm
weather The same hunter sent a
box of the birds from a small place
not far from the city. They were de-
layed enroute and arrived a day late.
The birds we're spoiled and In no CON
dition for use. Another hunter re-
calls that the man who does not hunt
is put in peculiar position by the
new law, which prohibits the sale Of
quail or other game in Iowa The man
who does not hunt may be very fond
of quail and in former years he could
occasionally buy sufficient for meal.
But now there is no such thing as
buying game, and he has to depend
upon his friends who do hunt. 1t has
also been noticed that the friend is
looked after a great deal more than
formerly.

llx'g!'T'oaIc,
Restores Vitality.

All the vitality which enters the
body is brought there by the food
which enters the stomach. There is
no vitality In drugs, no vitality In
alcohol. All vitality comes from
food. When people become nervous
or broken down from sickness, acct
dent or bad habits the first organ af-
fected is the stomach. This Is be-
cause excitement or action Of either
mind or body calls the blood away
from the stomach and there is not
enough nervous excitement in the
walls OF the stomach to cause the d.
gestive fluids to flow into it and d.
gest the food. Grief, anger or worry
stops digestion, the germs of fermen-
tation are always present, being even
in the food itself, hence the food
lays in the stomach and sours. After
It sours 1T cannot be digested and
the blood, nerves and whole BODY are
robbed OF the vitality they should
have had from that meal. The loss Of
nourlshment irritates the nerves. the
person becomes more worried and the
next meal Is not properly digested. 1t
will do no good to dope the stomach
with drugs and alcohol, for that mere
~ aggravates the case and the pa
tlent becomes worse and worse until
nervous prostration or nervous debil-
ity has q permanent claim upon him.
Oxy-Tonic acts directly upon the
stomach for the better, because of It's
oxygenating and germicidal powers
and in connection with this frees the
circulation from all noxious germ ac-
ton and Impurities. Do not hesitate
to try this marvellous preparation for
you VIII never have cause to regret

BAD NORWALK MAN

Wife Says that Her Illus band Killed a Man in

 Ncr'wailS. Conn, Nov. 4.-Steve S.p- pos. who went on a tear Tuesday and after having beaten his wife and Mir and Mrs. Joseph Silye. slashed Joseph Ipach with a jackknise :EfiictinG a gaping wound in his neck. laying open the scalp with another sweep of EIs weapon. was arraigned before Judge Joseph R. Taylor yesterday in the town court and pleaded guilty. Sippos was fined q and costs on a charge of intoxication and sentenced to spend six months in the Bridgeport couaty jail on the charge Of assault
 It developed that Slppos killed a man in Di-ernon. Ills, in 1906 and served six months Imprisonment for the same. This was given out by Mrs. SipPos. who both hates and fears her husband She stated that at that time Sippos served six months in the coun- ty jail awaiting trial. during which time an effort was made by the au- thorities to collect enough evidence to convict her husband. Being unable to do this the jury at the county court in Springfield acquitted SIppos. Mrs. Sippos claimed that he did kill the man and did in self defense as was given out at the time.

NORMAL DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY
 OF ABOUT 1000

It has been usual after city elections to analyIe the returns, and to draw divers and sundry differences. from 'sstraights'. splits. etc The voting machines have substantially abolished this practice. and about the only means of finding the popularity or un- popularity of a. candidate is to com pare his vote with that of his party's candidates for seats on the Board of Education. which positions are prac- ticaly non-competitive- Accepting this comparison as at least approximating closely the relative conditions. we find that while Buckingham ran I'll votes ahead of the Democratic ticket. Lee ran 7ss behind the Republican ticket that is. at least I'll Republicans voted for Buckingham, while 7s9 refused to support Lee
 Now, credfting Lee with the 7ss votes by which he ran behind his ticket. and deducting from Bucking- ham the I'll Republican votes cast for him, we find these results: Bucking- ham, 7.sSS: Lee. 5.s5-a majority of 1.4ss for Buckingham If it were pos sible to ascertain the exact number of Independents who voted for Bucking- ham. the exact size. of the normal Democratic majority in the city could be shown: assuming that the Inde- pendentt vote is represented by the 4s2-probably an overestimate-we find the normal Democratic majority to be 1000. There is a lesson of import ance to Democrats in these figures: it Is. United we. stand. divided we fall-.' with Democratic unity Bridge port is a Democratic city, even with out aid from Independents or dissent ing Republicans. Let the lesson not be forgotten in the futurel

They did not therefore, think it necessary that a gate be erected.

THANKs TO WHOM THANKS ARE
 DUE

It is meet and fitting that when gratitude for favors received is sin cereIy felt. thanks to whom thanks are rightly due should be freely. given. In the matter of the just ended Demo cratic campaign. such tokens of grati- tude should be expressed:
 To our esteemed contemporary, the Standard, for it's assertion on May IS. 1908. that mot a foot of that harbor) area should be taken ofr"-even though under evident ..machine- duress that statement was practically retracted during the recent campaign
 To our esteemed contemporary. the Post, for having usurped a function of the Republican convention by de- claring the real issue to be approval or disapprovaI of Mayor Lees record
 To our esteemed contemporary. the Standard. for having outlined the pol icy of Mayor Lee. sif reelected, as more along the same line"
 To our esteemed contemporary. the Post. for referring to the Republican machine as ''well-oiled" and having a full pocket'-in effect, a defiance of public sentiment as against such con-, ditions-
 To the now smashed Republican ma chine which thought itself strong enough to safely impose an unwanted candidate upon its party and to @ect him: 1t erred. to its own undoing.
 To our esteemed contemporary, the Telegram. which gave such sympathy and aid to the right cause as was con- sistent with its independent charac- ter
 To the TOO or 500 Republican privates a muzzle and enfranchised with clog and c4nnot in the future be chased as "automata."
 To the Democrats who suppressed their personal feelings and claims in order to secure party unity.
 To the Sunday Herald for an Eleventh hour article which made votesr for Buckingham, though not so intended.
 To Mayor Lee. for his courageous but injudicious acceptance of the main issue by declaring that he stood upon his record and had mo apologies to make
 To the Independents who voted as they thought and who usually think right
 To the voting machines which en- abled dissenting Republicans to vote for Buckingham without incurring the lasting anger of the party machine
 To the Republican party, as man. aged. and to its organs for having monumentaIly blundered in almost every move. and for having supplied the best and most carnuafen material for the Democrats on record in this city.

Law Must Find the Individ- ual in Order to Check
 Evils
Special from United Press1


 Chicago. Nov. 4.-''The law has shirk- ed its duty when 1t attempts to punish corporations. -t is an ideal undertak- ing and will never be successful. The law must find the individual in the modern corporation If 1t desires to check the evils of the business world even though fines piled high in the treasury"
 This was the substance of an address by President Woodrow Wilson of Princeton University closing the cen- tennial celebration of the Mccormick Theological Seminary here. He said in part:
 Tn our economic life men are in gigantic groups which have their con- science pooled. These men think they can compound their conscientious scruples on the ground that they can- not move Independently under penalty of being crushed.
