Denial Comes Later.

Since the above was put into type,
the following message was received
from the capital, which puts diff
ferent aspect on the case:
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. q. 200

Census figures for kcokuk. sent you
prove mistake. Clerk has sent horse

government Count is Given Out and
We Are Found to be the Sec ~
ond Largest City in the
State.
ONE LARGER
Population Of 52,eos Makes Other
Boastiul Neishbors Look
Like Foolish
Folks.

The census of Keokuk, officially
given out last evening by the bureau
at Washington, is 52,603.
This will be welcome and good
news to the citizens, who have long
expected that Keokuk was really
larger than it looked and the figures
now show that Keokuk is the second
largest city in the state,
The population of Des Moines, CIV
en- out about ten days ago, was &c.
S6S and Des Moines is the largest
Iowa city. It's next rival hitherto
has been Dubuque with a little over
10000 but now comes Keokuk with
her 52,603 souls and takes second
place in the state, with excellent pros
poets of becoming Iowa's greatest
city within the next five years.
The news was received last night
In the following dispatch:
WASHINGTON, Sept. a.-The Gate
City, keokuk, Iowa: The census bu-
reau has just announced the popula-
ton Of Keokuk for 1910 as 52,eoa.
The message was received too late
last night for bulletin to be issued
or the news to spread about town.
Probably it would have caused riot
had 1t been given out.
It will be great and glorious news
to the citizens to read this. exclusive
announcement and there will be a
sigh of relief from all over the city to
learn that Keokuk has at last been
properly counted. It is well known
fact that at previous counts, the full
population of the city has never been
given, but at last keokuk has come
into her own.

TEAM HAS A
VERY CLOSE CALL
Load of Stone Skids Forward Onto
Two Fine Horses.

a gray team belonging to the Ohio
Milling and Elevator company and
driven by Jesse Bonham, had a very
narrow escape from serious injury at
the corner of Main and Center streets
in front of the Marion County bank
this morning. The wagon was loaded
with about two ton of sandstone for
sidewalk The rack with the stone on
it had been slipping forward and
when the street car tracks were cross
ed 1t skidded forward catching tho
hnd legs of the horses and throw
ing them to the pavement. The ami
mails were pinned under the heavy
weight and were unable to extricate
themselves. A crowd or men soon
gathered and the harness was cut and
unbuckled, allowing the horses to es-
cape. For some hours the wagon
stood on the street with the rear
wheels lifted high In the air.

lots before u selection was made, but
from the Hrst lballot Mr.. Crow took

a man of very pleasing personality, a

"If I can prohibit 1t in any way ]
will not allow moving picture thea
ter In this city to show any burglaries,
train robberies, hold-ups counterfeit
ing schemes, or other things which
tend to lead the youth of our city
astray." This was the declaration OF
Mayor Setter today after reading in
the state Journal of a Pittsburg case
where boys were lead to commit a
daring hold-up and murder by SEER
"a similar thing enacted on the NOV
ing picture canvass.
Mayor Setter says that such things
should be suppressed. "The boys like
those the best and going there they
leave with those things fresh i'm their
minds and 1t is only natural that they
should desire to emulate the moving
picture heroes" he said.
The mayor recently put the ban on
fight pictures and believes that the
law Is strong enough on the subject
to back him up If fight Is made BY
the picture men. He is also of the
opinion that he can stop the picture
show owners from exhibiting films
such as those mentioned above. de-

The mayor recently visited several
picture shows and after coming out
he informed the proprietors that they
are not to show pictures of the kind
he saw there. 1t Is very doubtful
however, whether the mayor, under
the present ordinances, will be able
to put stop to any of the pictures
now being shown.

Although the trial of John Seitz
on charge of violating the Rose

mayor has not yet rendered his opin.
ion in the case. The friends of Seitz
claim that the state did not make a
case against him and that the mayor
does not want to decide the case I'm
Seitz's favor because of the criticism
that is likely to cone from the pull

decides the case against Setz on in

For many this year will be the final
lesson necessary. The man who has
had to pillow under his grain or use
it as scant pasture, cannot well hold
out longer against methods that have
brought others in the same district,
with no more rainfall, fair average
or a good crop. Last spring brought
rain, and later snow, enough where
held in the ground to nurture the
plant life, and to withstand any
drought. How TO prevent evaporation,
how to force this moisture to find it's
sole exit through the plants, is no
longer a mystery. 1t is called dry
farming" 1t is familiar now to every
tiller of the soil, and those who will
may defy the drought, and those who
won't, simply invite crop failure and
lean purse.
