On party conditions to the republican
county committee here. AS head of a

in part:
Party Conditions Peculiar.
Party conditions are peculiar thru
out the country. In the west it is a
question whether the party in many
states is with the state idol quite re-
gardless of his politics. A condition of
personal leadership has developed, re-
gardless of party lines.
No Great Issues Dividing.
There are no great issues dividing
the parties. With big issue, like
slavery, the tariff or sound money, men
will stand together on party lines, but
with no burning issue, these lines are
down and we must face new condi-
tions
Paramount Issue Now.
The great issue today IS the cost of
living, but that can not be made a
party issue. We have simply descend
ed to personal politics and have open
ed the field for personal prejudices and
favoritism. The parties are almost
blended on the issues"

Lenient With oIeo vioIators.
The state pure food department re-
ports growing disposition to refuse
to prosecute the dealers in illegal oleo
margarine. In one county of southern
quantity of oleo that had been colored
until it was decidedly yellow. The
facts were laid before the grand jury,
which upon the advice of the county
attorney, refused to indict. 1t is also
found that there is concerted move
ment in the state to educate the people
away from the idea that oleornargarine
is something to be Stunned and that
literature is being distributed and it's
publication secured in papers that are
not friendly to the dairy and butter
interests of Iowa. Advantage Is to be
taken of the recent high price of butter
to make it appear that one cause is
that the poor people are not permitted
to buy colored oleo and to use 1t as a
substitute for butter. The Iowa law
forbids the sale of oleo that is of
yellow color unless properly labeled.

Tale Of Two Fish.

A story is related Of a Manchester
fisherman who once tried to lure the
dainty trout from some Of the nearby
brooks. The fisherman did not get
bite In the brooks. He drove back to
Manchester rather disheartened and
went to a restaurant to get something
to eat. He asked the restaurant keep
er If he had any trout and received an
Affirmative reply. He ordered some Of
the trout for his supper and then told
the proprietor that he might put two
or three of the uncooked fish in his
fish basket out at the door, as he
didn't care to go home and receive the
raillery of his friends. The proprietor
of the restaurant told one Of the clerks
to carry out the order, and it was sup
posed to have been done faithfully.
But the clerk was not very alert,
and when the FISHERMAN got home
and opened up the fish basket to his
astonished wife there reposed two fine
salt mackerel, and the fisherman has
not got through explaining yet.-Man-
