MoRRELL PLANT TO CONTINUE

The threatened suspension OF the
Morrell packing plant has been avert
ed. The city council last night py
unanimous agreement voted to spetl'
ton the board of supervisors to re.
duce the assessment of the Morrell
plant from $675,00O to $45o,ooo. Inls
action was taken upon the urseh.
pleas Of the employees OF the plant
who were to have been laid on TOT an
indefinite period by the suspension Oh
the plant today, and the action OF the
business interests of the city IN rally
ing through the Commercial assocla'
ton to bring about an amicable al
iustment Of the taxation difficulty that
would insure the continued operation
Of this big institution. Mr.. Foster IN
an interview this morning states that
the plant will continue In operation as
II no Misunderstanding had arisen.
Although this matter had It's very
serious phase as it was brought before
the people, benefit will be derived
from II for the reason that 1t resulted
in a basis being reached for handing
similar questions in the future. A
committee of five from the city
council was appointed at the meet
inc last night to work in conjunc-
ton with similar committee from
the Commercial association In outlin-
ing plans for future dealings with
manufacturing institutions.
It is generally agreed that taxatloh
is a matter that requires experience
and counsel, the counsel that comes
from knowledge Of the problems the
manufacturer meets In competition
with other institutions. It is neces-
sary to arrive at q basis that Will IN
sure square deal to the home manu-
facturer in order that he may go into
competition with competitors in other
cities on equal terms. The joint COM
mittee Of the city council and Com
mercial association has the widest
field for cooperation and the more
hearty this cooperation between tfe
city authorities and the business inter-
ests Of the city, the greater the bene-
fits that will be derived by the com
munity.

ng to the advance Of the cost Of liv-

ing. s asa5fts
8. The advance Of prices has been
further promoted by completely OF
causes operating on the side of sup
ply to reduce the volume and increase
the expenses of production, and on the
side Of demand, to extend and diversi-
fy the consumption Of commodities.
The main factors in restricting sup
ply and enhancing the cost OF COM
modities have been the drain OF popu-
lation from the land, which has de-
creased the proportion Of persons en-
gagged In producing the food supply;
the exhaustion of natural resources.
which has resulted In Increased ex-
penses Of production and distribution,
especially the latter.
The chief influences on the side of
demand, which have worked parallel
to the forces affecting supply have
been the growing concentration Of
population in great cities, which has
increased the proportion OF non-pro-
ducing food consumers; the general
advance of the standard OF living,
which has enlarged the requirements
on the part Of individual consumers
Of all classes; and the national habit
Of extravaganza, which has further
extended and diversified to an abnor-
NAL degree the demand for comforts
and Injuries created by that advance.
4. With regard to the tariff, the
trusts and the unions, which have
been declared to be either primary or
contrfbutory causes Of the increase OF
the cost of living, the commission
finds that none Of these factor CAN be
regarded as direct and active cause
Of the recent general advance OF
prices. @

Mothers Day.

prize was once offered by lead
ing metropolitan paper for the three
most inspiring words in the English
Language. 1t was awarded to the per-
son who submitted the three words:
Mother" Home and Heaven"
Surely each word awakens respon-
sive chord in every human heart, and
it seems fitting that the first place
should be given to mother" through
whose influence the other two are Oft
en- made attainable. The second Sun
day in May has been set apart as
Mothers Day-the one day in the year
when special honor shall be given to
the best mother who ever lived-your
own. not honored this day to the ex-
clusion Of the others, but that such
contemplation of her love may pre-
pare the heart for fuller and more
thoughtful expression of 1t the remain
ing three hundred and sixty-four days
of the year. 1t seems especially fit
ting that this day should be observed
in our churches our Y. M. G. A. and
our Y. w. C. A. So far as is known
the thought Of Mothers day originated
in the loyal heart of Miss Anna jar
Wis of Philadelphia in connection with
desire to commemorate her own
mothers home-going This was in
1906. In two years the idea spread
over North America and through 9TH
er lands. The second Sunday in May
was proposed as Mothers day, when
universal motherhood should be hon
ored everywhere and the wearing OF
white blossom be token of love and
loyalty to the living and Of perpetual
remembrance of those called higher.
Let individuals who are blessed with
their good mother near them show
their appreciation by some deed Of
kindness. If away from home, write
her a love letter, send a telegram,
call her over the long distance tele-
phone or send her special delivery
letter. Religious organizations are
asked to have special services on
May Sth-Mother's day.-M.

w. A. Work Of Ottumwa, who former
ly resided at Keosauqua and is well
known in this county. was in town last
week looking after the judgeship for

make a strong race for the nomina-

one of the judges Of this district should
be resident of Ottumwa, where court
is held almost continuously. The other
Ottumwa candidates for the honor on
the Republican ticket, are Attorneys

BEING A PRESIDENT.

This thing of being president Of a
great nation has its ups and downs.
The other day the president was in
ST. Louis at time when two baseball
games were in progress. He couldn't
go out and root for one of the teams,
as he would like to have done, being a
baseball fan, but he had to leave one
game just when it was getting good
and put in his appearance at the other
and then leave that before it was over
to fill an eating or an oratorical or a
astronomical engagement. The Chi
cago Inter-Ocean Is moved to moral
ize on the disadvantages of being
president in the following strain:N
No other man in the nation is ex-
pected to be equal to such "a Devil
dering variety of occasions.
The presidents mouth must be kept
in continual readiness either to eat a
possum dinner or make speech be-
fore society for psychical research
at q days notice If it is not, some
body is disappointed.
He is expected to help open every
new institution larger than a Blue
Point oyster, to unveil everything
from sculpture to national corruption
and to lay corner stones and political
ghosts with equal facility. And all
with remarks appropriate to the occa-
sion
There is no subject on earth or in
the waters under the earth that he
may not at one time or another be
asked to discuss; no great man that
he may not be called on to eulogize;
no menu that he may not be requested
to devour.
What a life for great family
man! One day opening the baseball
season by tossing the ball to the UNI
pire and the next day Fastening in a
special car to meet the insistent de-
mand from distant part of the coun-
try that he come and eat in the pres
ence. Of distinguished citizens paying
$25 per plate! -
One day laying the cornerstone of
the new public school building at Al
toona, Pa; the next trying to deliver
an address before theosophical soci-
ETY. on "The Oneness of the What;
and finishing the trip with a personal
inspection of the unlimited possible
ties presented by the Squash river
even in it's present congresslonally
neglected state!
On one and the same day eulogtzing
a local celebrity whose name does not
appear in who's Who" speaking
words Of wisdom to- the graduating
class Of female college on What
Every Woman Knows" and giving the
signal that starts church bazaar on
it's destructive path!
When we consider the strain neces-
sarily involved in presidential effort,
the Inter-Ocean adds, we almost begin
to credit his reported Willingness to
retire at the end of the present term.

THREsAINo OVER OLD STRAW.

Editor Ottumwa Courier:
Our new contributor, 81. B. NJ" does
not say much that has not been SAID
by his yokefellows; but some Of his
theology needs correction. The state
ment that it is an admitted fact that
the decalogue, including the Sabbath,
was given at the beginning. and kept
by the patriarchs and others the first
four thousand years." Is not a fact AT
all; but plain contradiction OF
scripture; see Deut. 5:3, Neh. 9:lS,l4,
GAL 3:17.
The excuse for having fire on the
Sabbath: that that was a part OF
Moses law or their civil law" will
not bear the light of scripture, for in
Elk. 35:1, 3 we read: These are the
words which the Lord hath command
ed. We shall kindle no fire through
out your habitations upon the Sabbath
day."
You say the fourth commandment
does not mention, "kindling fire..
Neither does it mention buying ana
selling and would you think of doing
that on Saturday? You had just as
well so, come now, own up that you
Offend in one point and are therefore
guilty Of ALL" for, slot and title
still means jot and little. Again you
say, Christ came as teacher of God,
notlof new doctrine of His own" "
certainly was new doctrine when He
said to Nicodemus, Except man be
born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of heaven" Ono. 3:3.) A doctrine
which seems as new and difficult TO
would be law teachers today as it was
to Nicodemus.
You also say, Christ did the
Fathers will by. keeping the law But
that never would have saved sim
ner. It is only half the truth. When
facing death He prayed, 20 MY
Father, if this cup may not pass
away from Me except drink 1t, Thy
will be done" (Mat. 26:42) Notwlth-
standing His holy life, Heaven would
have been tenantless had He not re.
deemed us from the curse of the law"
(Gal. 1919 by his death on the cross.
But by that death He became the END
of the law for righteousness to every
one that believeth.' (Rom. 10:4) Nay,
friend, it is still true that "as many as
are of the works of the law are under
the curse" (Gal. 3:1O.)
