The log cabin Democrat., 1910-04-26

Only few days after the tragic death of John H. Markham, his moth- CT and family were again saddened by learning of the death of another son. George Markham, which occurred in Colorado four years ago. George Markham, who was well known to the older citizens of Conway, had been missing for number of years and all efforts of the family to locate him had been without avail. Upon the death of John Markham they renewed their efforts to find the lost brother, and it was then learned through par ties in St. Louis that he died nearly four years ago.

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.
Announcement as to Summer Term

AnnOuncement ds to Summer Term.
 The attention of the teachers of our county is directed to the fact that a six weeks session of the State Nor nal School will be held at Conway, Arkansas, beginning June 13 and end ing July 22.
 As the advantages of such schools are appreciated by all thoughtful teachers, there should be large at tendance from over the State. For tunately directors are beginning to realize the worth of trained teachers in our schools, and, in many of our districts, no others need apply.
 The expenses for the six weeks term are, an enrolment fee of $500, and board at prices ranging from $12.50 to $500 per month. The li- brary and laboratories will be free to all students, and every advantage for improvement will be afforded.
 In addition to the work usually done in the school, first-class in- structor in primary methods has been employed. Pupils ready for the work in the primary grades will be in reg ular attendance each day, and those who desire to study this phase of school work from the practical, as we'll as the theoretical, standpoint will here have an excellent opportunity to do so.
 The law wisely provides that per sons attending summer Normals shall be excused from attendance upon their county institutes, as so much more good must result from attend ance upon the former than could pos sibly result from the usual short term county institute.
 The courses presented will cover re- view work, advanced work, primary work, special methods in instruction and discipline, and other phases of school work of great importance to the teacher.
 Those desiring further information should apply to the President of the school, J. J. Doyne, Conway, Ark.

back this word to the capitol late today
and passed 1t along the line. President
Taft believes that the senate should go
ahead with these three measures at once,
and then, he says, the house can get them
in some sort of shape, can have the bene-
fit Of the senate discussion and can put
tbs measures through in short time once
the supply bills are disposed OF.
The president Is confident that Senator
Aldrlch will do all he can to further the
passage OF the. postal savings bank bill.
This bill, 1t is argued, will give the leader
of the senate an opportunity to show to the
people of the country hat they are to get
their share of the benefits of forthcoming
financial legislation.
Mr., Aldrich Is anxious to secure the sup
port Of the country for the new currency
laws and the new central bank of issue, or
whatever form the legislation may take,
and the president believes the best way to
secure this support is to provide for the
postal banks. The president believes, first
of all, hat the postal banks will not inter.
fere to any appreciable extent with the
savings banks which pay from 8 to 4 per
cent as against the 2 per cent Interest pro-
posed to be paid by government deposit
tories. He believes the government banks
will bring out many millions of dollars
now resting In stockings and sewed I'D In
mattresses by timid and thrifty people.
He thinks also 1t will prevent the great
outflow of cash to European banks each
year.
Argument to Banks.
The argument to the banks and flnanciers
is that the deposits In the government banks
will permit the government to take up the
$3.50, 900, 900 Of 2 per cent government bonds
that rave been issued and which are a
drug on the market.
Many of the national banks were com
PEELED to a these bonds because they
feared their bank note circulation would be
seriously limited otherwise. The banks are
said to have lost many millions OF dollars
through the depreciation of these bonds
and it is generally reported they stand TO
lose a great deal more when the Panama
canal bonds are issued in the near future.
Throughout the remainder of the present
congress it is agreed the caucus rule is to
prevail in the house Of representatives.
This state Of affairs Is credited to the eff
forts Of the president. The power Of
Speaker Cannon and the rules committee
has been 80 far impaired that the caucus
has come as the best and fairest means Of
providing for legislation. Before each
caucus Is held the purpose of the gathering
is to be announced and no other subject
is to be considered. Regulars and insur-
gents alike are to be invited to such eau
cuses and in this way the administration
believes It is assured Of the support Of all
republicans.
AIdrieh Goes FIshInE.

Aldrich, accompanied by his wife and two
daughters, arrived here today. Thu senator
is sufferipg from bronchial trouble. but he
made preparations to go fishing soon after

to Be Revived
Business Men Unanimous to Have
September Festival Again
in Fall.

The annual street fair and carnival. which
proved such a success in Council Bluffs for
several years, but was discontinued three
years ago, is to be revived. This was de-
oided upon yesterday noon at the Grand
hotel, when several business men met at the
invitation Of Mayor Maloney TO discuss the
proposition. The sentiment of the meet
ing was unanimous In having another street
fair and carnival IN September and no time
will be lost In getting preparations started.
The proceeds Of the carnival, It was de-
cided, will be usedSto defraying the ex-
penses OF the National horticultural Fruit
exposition. II any balance remains it will
be used in improving the roads leading into
the city.

discussed the proposition around the lunch4
con table were K, II. Doolttle, chairman
Of the executive committee Of the CONNER
cial club; J. p. Hess, president OF the Ma

Reed, general superintendent of the Fruit
exposition, and II. A. Quinn. Charles Bono
and B. M. Sargent, directors of the old
Council Bluffs Street Fair and Carnival
company. .....

said Mayor Maioney after the luncheon.
An present at the meeting expressed
themselves as in favor Of 1t and arrange

were out of the city and could not at

Place Of Meeting, 1911-Fort Dodge.
After electing the above officers for the
ensuing year and selecting Fort Dodge as
the place Of meeting for 1911, yesterday
afternoon the Iowa Independent Telephone
association completed the business of its
annual convention.
No action was taken by the convention
in the matter Of merging the independent
telephone companies of the state along the
line proposed by the Nebraska association.
The matter was generally discussed, but
the urgent need OF such an incorporation
was not deemed necessary at this time, al
though the merging of the different indie
pendent systems Of the state may be ef-
feoted at a later date. The matter of taxi
ing steps to incorporate the several indie
pendent. companies was referred to the ex-
ecutive committee, which will prepare the
necessary papers and report back at the
convention mex year.
The Iowa Independent telephone COM
panies, 1t was stated, already have a close
organization and, although they are not in
corporated, the convention did not feel that
such a step was of such immediate import
ance in Iowa as 1t apparently was in Ne
braska-
No Contest on Election.
The election of officers was made on the
recommendation of a nominating commit
tee, OF which F. j. Day, president of the
Council Bluffs Independent company, was
chairman. There was no contest and the
report of the committee was unanimously
adopted.
Ottumwa was in the field for the 1911
convention, but withdrew from the contest
when it's representatives realized that oFrt
Dodge was favored by a majority of the
members. Ottumwa, however, will go after
the 1912 convention, and, in fact, was prac-
tically assured that 1t will get the meeting
that year. Following the withdrawal Of
ottumwa the selection of Fort Dodge as
the meeting place for next year was by
unanimous vote.
Resolutions were adopted thanking P. G.
Holdoegel OF Rockwell City. the retiring
president, for his efficient administration
of the office; expressing appreciation for
the royal reception and entertainment ten
dered the delegates in this city, and thank
ing the manufacturer of telephone equip
ment for their interest and financial sup
port. A resolution was also adopted ap-
proving the mutual insurance plan pre-
scented by J. B. Hoge of Cleveland, O..
Beyond the election Of officers and Sc
lection of next years meeting place, the
association transacted but little business
yesterday. as many of the delegates were
anxious to take the trains for their respec-
homes.

state Commissioner Has No Thought
of ResiEning.
II certainly have no intention of resign
ing, but after 1 reach home and look the
situation over 1 may decide to issue a state
ment, although my first thought was to
ignore IT," said State Railroad Commits
sioner N. s. Ketchum yesterday when
asked what course he intended pursuing
relative to the demand Of a Des Moines
paper that he resign because of the com
missions action in the case brought before
the Interstate Commerce commission by
the Corn Belt Meat Producers association.
Mr.. Ketchum said he had not seen the
article In question, but had read some
references to It in the Kansas City papers.
The action of the board, Mr.. Ketchum
said, was a matter of record at ali times
and there was no desire to keep the mat
ter secret. In fact, he supposed the meat
producers representative had a copy OF
the resolution referred to and which caused
the trouble.
day while in Council Bluffs for a few hours
between trains on his way home from San
Antonio, Tex, where he attended the con-
vention Of the National Association of State
Railway Commissioners He said that he
would be in Council Bluffs in about two
weeks and at that time would be glad to
confer with the business men of the city
on any matters that might properly come
before the commission.
