ADDRESS BY GOV. CARROLL
People Of Winneshiek to Have First
Opportunity to Hear IOwa's
Business Governor. Every
body Invited.

Monday evening we received a
telegram fcom Des Moines stating

Cne interested in the welfare of the

fairs ought to come cut and hear
him.
Governor Carroll has served but
one term and is a candidate before
the republican primaries for the
customary second term, and in this
address vii doubtless explain his
policies and his purposes. He Is the
chief executive of great state,
thorough business governor, during

placed in the state treasury. His
administration cannot be justly eri-
ticised His appointments have been
made from both factions of the re-
publican party, standpat and pro-
gressive, and he has held himself
aloof during his administration
both as state auditor and governor
from the factionalism within the
party. He is entitled to a crowded
house, and we hope that every voter
in this vicinity will be present.
Ladies especially invited. Come out
and hear the Governor.
There is but little time to adver-
| tise the meeting. and we hope that
those who read this notice will
spread the news among their ac-
quaintances, SO that all who may
wish to come will know about it.

THE STAR GAZERS.

Star gazing is ordinarily limited
to few people keenly interested
in natural science, not to speak of
the many young folks who use it as
an excuse for getting out of doors
uncnaperoned after dark. But Hal
ley's comet has vastly increased in
terest in the heavens, and in many
places the streets have been CROWD
ed on some of these recent nights
Astronomy is a fine interest and
one more accessible to the loneliest
resident of the remotest farm than
to the most favored metropolitan
dweller. There is peace and rest
in looking at the majestic march OF
the suns and planets, feeling of
some vast authority ard intelligence
that does all things we'll There is
all the fascination of a puzzle pic
ture, in becoming familiar with the
great historic consultations, at
which man has gaZed in curiosity
and awe for 10000 years. And
converse with these vast interests
gives one the feeling that the striv-
ings and competitions, the heart
burnings and the ambitions OF
earthly life, are after all very
trivial.

ing resolution approving my ad-
ministration and conduct in office.
What consistency would there he

cerned about and the thing that is
of importance to our state is whether
the people are going to endorse
what l have stood for and have done
toward putting the states affairs
upon business basis and demand
ing economy and honesty in official
positions. This can only be done
by denomination, and not by reso-
luton. Anything else will be her.

Oil for Streets Ordered.

The main travelled streets of West
Union are to be given coat of
road oil, which is crude petroleum
containing forty per cent of asphalt.
This project was sprung some weeks
ago. but hitch occurred, and it was
not until Friday evening that the
council ordered two cars of oil, 15,-
900 gallons, with which the work is
to be done. The cost of the oil and
putting it on is to be divided equal
ly between the city's funds and
fund raised from the business men
by subscription. Heretofore the
dust has been laid by sprinkling
with water at a cost of about $500
year. This method has become
thoroughly unpopular, and the oil
ing is to be tried instead. The city
will get the road ready for the ap-
plication of oil within the next week
or ten days.

Tonight'S Attraction.

MAS New Husband" spells
mirth in the very title. Talk of
love under difficulties; this three
act musical farce furnishes more
difficulties in half an hour for a
pair of lovers than are ordinarily
encountered in cOurtship that
lasts several years. And the crown
ing virtue of the obstacles in this
case lies in the fact that they never
call for tears, except when the eX-
cessive laughter evoked brings them
to cool cheeks aflame from risible
exertion.
All this anl more. has been true
of the appearance Of Mas New
Husband" in other cities, and thea
tre goers here will have an oppor-
turity to Judge for themselves,
when the piece will be presented at
the Grand opera house tonight.
The music is said to be vigorous
and catchy. while the book is strone
enough to entertain admirably by
itself alCne.
Among the many musical hits OF
the farce which have caught the
popular ear are: "A Kiss. "A Quiet
Little Game" "A Little Stick OF
Candy and Jumping Jack, y
Jokes" "Get Your Tip From Me, y
The Great Professor" etc.
The Harry Scott Company, who
are in charge of this latest musical
success, promise a merry time. Pri-
ces 50c, sac and CSC.

THE CURRENT OF BUSINESS
MIGRATION.

This is an age of business migra-
ton. Ambitious young men, who
fail to get ahead with old firms, are
constantly starting new enterpris-
es. Successful concerns are start
ing branches. How shall we get our
fair share of these new enterprises?
There are two essentials: First,
wide awake, hustling board of
trade; Second, one or more wide
awake and pushing newspapers, tc
tell outsiders what this town is
like.
When man CT business concern
contemplates a removal, one of the
first things is to get some newspa-
pers from the city held in view.
From the typographical appearance
and advertising one can learn much.
If the business men ale we'll repre-
sented in the advertising columns,
they are working to enlarge their
trade, and hence will probably look
favorably on new enterprises. If a
paper has a clean typographical ap-
pearance, the town will almost al
ways have modern improvements
and will be we'll kept up.
Money spent on newspaper sub
scriptions or advertising, helps tell
the outside world that you live in
a progressive town.

How to Build Roads.

The hunters license raised an i'm
mense sum of money and raised II
easily and this sum is going to be
used for the protection of game
Does that experience not point a
way toward raising fund for build
ing permanent good roads. The au-
tomobile license ought to every cent
of it go toward making better roads,
and If it was the license fee should
be doubled and owners of the auto
could rejoice.-Osage News.

Land is Going Fast.

We wonder how many OF our
boys realize that land is going fast
boys brought up to think that in
America land can never be scarce,
that when they have played out at
every thing else they can somewhere
get a piece of land for nothing and
the next day be a prosperous farm
er, can with difficulty be made to
see it says an exchange. In 1865
there were but little over $1,000
600 acres under cultivation in the
United States. Today the cultiva-
ton acres number 236,000,000 and
these acres are not only our best,
but they are fast going up in value
beyond the reach of men of small
means. Keen scented corporations
shifting the inevitable battle from
afar are turning their attention to
land, and greedily buying whole
counties with no idea of ever letting
an acre go, but the boy who thinks
he is made for something higher
looks calmly on thinking there will
be plenty left for him should he
ever have to stoop to it. The sons
of half-starved teachers, lawyers,
traders and others, who are unsuc-
cessful in their over-crowded call
ings. are turning to our cheaper
lands, sure to find there what they
nor their parents have known be-
fore-truly Independent homes.
