face Of the Great Republic; when Iowa
answered with responsive lips the clar-

When Cevera's fleeing vessels day dy-

clanking of those spurs. Wherever the
charging about was raised with it
swelled the diapason of the spurs; it
mingled with the cry of victory; it rang
above the thunder of the guns; the
metallic resonance of those spurs was
hard clear and thin amid the thunder
of nlaxins and the crash of volleys.

COLONEL YoUNG's SPURS.

One Of the prominent state weeklies
says:
Among the later additions to the
military ranks of Iowa may be found
"Col." Late Young. We do not know
where he got IT, but presume that the
title has something more to recommend
it than the Colonel applied to local
auctioneers.
The careless ignorance so astonish-
ingly and brazely displayed by the
ordinarily we'll informed and excellent
journal quoted abose is as deplorable
as It is astonishing. Not know how
and where Colonel Young got his mil
itary title? And mention the colonel as
lam ong the later additions to the mill
tary ranks of Iowa?" Next thing we
know question will be raised upon other
common and staple historical facts.

YEARS AGO.
rVinton Eagle.1

The item in the last issue Of the
Eagle regarding the car of corn Gull
tivators which came to town last
week when everybody was patiently
waiting for coal put US in mind of Q
somewhat similar incident that oc-
Cured at Traer some thirty-five years
ago. 1t was in the winter of 1854. one
of the snowiest and stormiest winters
Iowa ever knew. The snow was deep
and the wind seemed to be blowing
all the while and drifts were enorm-
Gus. The Sioux Falls branch only ran
to Traer. Ut was the days of the
"dinky" engines-engines that could
only pull fifteen or eighteen loaded
cars.
During one of these severe billiards.
the road became blockaded and no
train reached Traer for week. Every
body nearly had got out of coal espec-
tally in the country. Finally word
came that train would get thru to
Traer and that it had two cars of coal.
The farmers teams lined up at the
different coal sheds and the dealers had
agreed that whoever got the coal it
would be proportioned among the Gus
toners OF all the dealers. Finally
along about noon the engine whistled
for the town and everybody immedi-
ately rushed for the depot The agent
was ready to have the conductor switch
the coal cars on the sidetracks imrned-
lately. i have no COAL" said the con-
ductor and he coolly proceeded to side
track car containing corn planters.
Was there a howl! Well slightly. 1t
seemed for awhile as tho the conductor
might be mobbed.
1T was an actual fact that the con-
ductor had sidetracked the coal at
Vinton and took up the car of corn
planters. The wires were kept hot for
awhile. "A number were sent to the
agent at 'Vinton telling him to send
"post-holes" next day as the people
at Traer did not need coal. Most of
the farmers returned home with the
assurance that next day there would
be coal sure. The agent at Traer at
that time was James Huff, afterward
station agent at Vinton. He reported
matters to headquarters and the train
men were given orders to take every
car of coal there were in the yards at
Cedar Rapids and see that it got to
Traer regardless of everything or any,
thing.
The next day the town was full of
teams again. The train came and
there were several cars of coal and
everybody was happy A number of
the farmers had burned up everything
loose around the farm and some of
them We're compelled to burn their
fences. The last snow that winter was
the middle of April (1s74) and it
blocked the road for week.
Traer had been in existence but a
few months and the people were lily
prepared for such winter as that
was. Then the nearest town to the
north was Waterloo: TO the south was
Toledo.

The OUTLOOK FOR Next YEAR

The deep snowfall, the delayed trains
and the blockaded country roads are
incidental. They make things dull
for the day but the outlook for the
coming year is extremely favorable as
viewed by those who keep a finger on
the pulse of business. The farmers are
approaching the spring with confidence
and optimism prevailed among the
manufacturers.
The automobile makers are working
overtime. The output of farm maehin-
cry for December is indicated of the
confidence of the manufacturers OF
farm implements. Dry goods, electrical
appliances and hardware manufactures
are also normally active. Dealers in
manufactured goods see year of great
volume of business in 1910.
As illustration Of current business
activity and the promising industrial
outlook for 1910. the output of the
United States Steel Corporation in De-
cember totaled 2.s35,sso tons, an aver
age of s5.o22 tons per day. The tota,
production Of steel last year aggregated
26,775,oo0 tons, as compared to the
output of 15.s36,o1S tons in 1908 With
nineteen new blast furnaces under con-
struction, the outlook IS exceedingly
favorable FOR record production during
the twelve months Of 1910. The ca
pacity OF the steel plants is being in
creased to produce 1850 900 tons. a par.
of which viii be available the first six
months of the current year.
The building Industry in the princi-
pal cities gives no indication Of reduced
activity. The total building construc-
ton in 1909 aggregated s841,938,314,
against ss12 ,s2o,15s in 1908, an increase
of 37,3 per cent. The activity Of nearly
all principal national industries en-
phasizes recovery Of business from the
financial panic of 1907 and forecasts e
prosperous year for 1910.
Against increased industrial activity
the only disturbing factor is the in
creased cost of living. which is seri-
Gus element to every citizen dependent
on salary to maintain household ex-
penses.

voted agains. party measures in the
pas. without severing or even inter
rupting their party relations. Other
republicans who were not insurgents
also voted against the passage of the
Payne bill. We have not heard that
Ex-,Speaker j. Warren Keifer of Ohio,
is to be proceeded against because he
affiliated with insurgents and demo-
Gratis in opposing that measure Is
Mr.. Southwick, of New York, to be dis
ciplined for similar offence, or Mr.
Mann, of Illinois, whom Speaker Can
non recently eulogized as the most val
liable member of the house?
Only two years ago the chairman of
the republican house caucus attempted
to exclude from it Representative Peter
A. Porter, of New York, who demanded
admission as republican. The reason
given for barring him out was that he
had accepted nomination on the dem
ocratic ticket and had defeated an OPP
ponent, James w. Wadsworth. running
on a republican ticket. Mr. Porter
stated that he was a republican and
intended to support republican policies,
and the chairman of the caucus was
forced to withdraw his edict and aban-
don his claim of competency to deter
mine Representatives party status
The house caucus is no inquisition. 1t
is not authorized to pass upon matters
of party loyalty. The voters do that,
or their representatives in national
conventions. The country laughed at
Chairman Hepburn's attempt to freeze
Representative Porter out Of the repub-
lican caucus. 1t will not take seriously
similar efforts in the house to prove
that men who were elected by republi-
can constituencies and who say that
they are now and intend to remain
republicans can, without any material
evidence of disloyalty, be deprived of
party fellowship.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

Much fuss is making over the high
cost of living. Secretary Wilson is in
vestigating" the retailer and suggests
that in certain lines, especially meats,
the retailer is responsible for much of
the increased cost Some one asserts
that bread made from American wheat
is sold higher in the United States than
in Berlin, etc. etc. But all the meat
markets are not getting rich with re-
markable rapidity. The fact is that it
costs too much to live 1t costs the SAL
AIRED man and wage worker too much.
But we keep on buying the stuff and
creating demand that sets the hog
sight. Now tenderioins from nine dollar
hogs and sirloins from nine dollar cat
tie come high. They come high because
some one wants them and is ready
to buy them. One of the fellows who
buys only the best steak is the SAL
AIRED man and the wage worker is an
other.
Retail profits are probably high. Ev-
eryone who supplies great demand
gets a good profit. There is excellent
money in 50 hogs.
Secretary Wilson may investigate"
but what is he going to do about ito
What can he do? Who sets prices on
produce? So long as we live Well
while everyone who wants to work can
be fairly well employed, while We have
the money and arrogantly propose TO
spend it as We please, what are we go
ing to do about it?
