apparently less than was supposed. The
loss will undoubtedly be close to $780,

by the insurance, so far as ascertained
at this time, is s19,750. OF this amount
the sum of $4,000 was carried in the
mutual association of canning factor

The directors of the company as
sembled here Saturday to consider the
conditions in which the fire had left
the concern. 1t was decided to rebuild
the plant, and work will be commenced
as soon as the site can be cleared of
the debris. Another matter decided by
the directors was to take care of the
acreage devoted to the production of
corn which the Waverly factory ex-
pected to pack. BY this means the
growers will not suffer severe loss.

Railroad Turns Gardener I.

The Canadian Pacific railroad has
gone into gardening. 1t has estab'

started in to raise flowers and vege.

The railroad is not going into the
business for profit, except indirectly.
It has been in the hotel business for
years, owning and operating many no
tells on its line across Canada. This
garden at Winnipeg will supply flow
ers and vegetables for the hotel at
Winnipeg and probably for others to
which quick shipments are possible.

"uP IN The AIR.

That old slang phrase about man,
a scheme or an enterprise being cup
in the air. Is likely to become obsolete
soon or have its meaning reversed. Re-
cent exploits of aviators, aeroplanists,
and others whose field of operations
are the blue and boundless skies dem
onstrate that being "up in the air" and
staying there for a. longer time and
distance than the other fellow" is a
consumation not only devoutly to
be wished, but is both remunerative
and fraught with fame.
Aerial navigation is as yet in its in
fancy. but it is making rapid and won
nerful strides. 1t has by no means
passed tine experimental stage. but
many of the experiments are proving
not more possibility but its proclivabil-

decade will be in the navigation of

as yet conjecture and speculation, but
the fact old as the everlasting hills,
still remains that what has been done
can be done again, and experience
proves that it is usually done better a
second or third or thousandth time.
Hence it is reasonable to assume that
at no far distant date traversing the
air will become as common pastime
or business as automobiling. And if
may be further assumed that it will be
attended with no greater hazard to life
and limb than is the present day craze
for speeding thru city and country in a

SEVEN TIMES AND OUT.
Husband Who Fought For Bride, 10
Lose Her at Last.

Ida Grove, Aug. 3o.--A sequel to
the romantic marriage last March of
Miss Hazel Cole and Jonah Long is
now shown in the way of a divorce,
the bride having retained NJ NJ White
to prosecute her case. which will come
up at the October term of the district
court.
Ling was the man who fought so
long and strenuously to secure his
bride. going thru seven cases in
justice courts and finally receiving an
order from Judge Church to get his
promised wife out of the custody OF
her parents. who claimed she was not
mentally competent to choose a hus-
band.
Long has retained an attorney and
will combat his wife's efforts just as
hard to keep her from obtaining a di-
GORGE as he did to get her.

BYsRs QUICK ACTING REMOVAL LAW.

The rapidity with which the Cosson
removal law operated in the case of
Marengos drunken mayor and the Ger
tainty with which Judge Preston sus-
tanned the validity of the law all re-
verts no small amount of credit to At
torney General Byers whose admin
istration was the author of this and
several other most important laws for
greater efficiency in law enforcement.
1t was Attorney General Byers who
made the discovery that he could enter
any liquor case in Iowa in person or
by deputy and proceed with the prose-
cution in the name of the state which
some local county attorney, perchance
might be Sinking. His discovery Gre
ated panic in Davenport bur it
started such wave of law enforcement
in Iowa as was never seen before.
Then came the list of Cosson laws
before the legislature known TO be the
Byers program of reform as the two

mary laws were presented as Governor
Cummins' program of reform. Senator
Cosson was a very able lawyer Who
had just served as a deputy in .Attor
ney General Byers office. AS county
attorney at home he had a distin-
guished record. He took charge of the
Byers bills for law reform and the
removal law was one of the most i'm
portant.
Now, it is so provided that county
attorneys, sheriffs, city mayors and
dozens of other minor. officials are re-
movable forthwith by the district
court either for neglect of duty or I'M
seemly conduct and the first trial given
its efficiency at Marengo has demon
strated that for Quickness and GER
tainty of action no law reform has ever
surpassed it. The law reform COM

PEDDLERs MUST PAY.
oskaloosa Authorities Decide to En-
force Old State Law,


Oskaloosa, Aug. S0.-The large num-
Der of peddlers who make Oskaloosa
their headquarters and sell goods from
wagons thru the country districts in all
directions, have been cited to appear
before ESQUIRE C. Woodruff and answer
to the charges of peddling without a
license.
According to the Iowa code. ped
oilers must pay license. The license
for peddler on foot is twenty five
dollars per year. A peddler having
Ia single horse and wagon must pay
$50, and a peddler having two horses
and a wagon must pay $75. The law
licensing peddlers was passed by the
Iowa legislature several years. ago, but
no attempt was made to enforce it in
Mahaska county and as a result the
county has lost hundreds of dollars in
revenue. Constables Henley and DON
nelly recently took up the matter and
have had informations sworn out in
Squire Woodruff's court against the
peddlers who make Oskaloosa their
home. The warrants are being served
as rapidly as the men arrive in town.
