Honey
and Tar

This great remedy clears
the air passages instantly,
stops the irritation in the
throat, soothes the inhamed'
membranes, and cures the
most obstinate cough no
matter how severe. We
have never heard of cough
or cold d eveloping into
Pneumonia after F oley's S
Honey and Tar had been
taken. 1t strengthens and
heals sore and inha m e d
lungs, and expels the cold
from the system. Why take
chances on a cold develop
ing into Pneumonia, Pleu-
risy or Consumption when
Foley's Honey and T ar
cures coughs quickly, and
heals and strengthens the
lungs, and you are in no
danger of serious results.
Foley's Honey and Tar
contains no opiates or other
harmful drugs. Refuse any
but the genuine in a yellow
package.

Cummins and Oregon Plan.

Iowa's adoption of the Oregon
plan of choosing United States sem
ators would be a monumental joke
on Senator Cummins and Gen.
Byers, and their friends, especially
the Des Moines correspondents of
the democratic dailies, may be trust
ed TO make hard fight against it
at Des Moines this winter.
The Oregon plan would break up
the game, that is the game of fac
tional politics that has been played
in this state for over ten years past
A candidate winning republican
nomination with the aid of demo-
cratic votes would be beaten at the
general election, just as Cake was
beaten by Chamberlain in Oregon
after beating Senator Fulton at the
republican primary.
The interest OF Senator Cummins
demands that the senatorship be left
TO the legislature after the partisan
primary has spoken. The partisan
primary verdict once in his possess
sion, his friends may continue their
fight on every regular republican
LOl INC WIFI
the assurance that he will be elected
senator without regard to whether
the majority in the legislature is
nominally republican or nominally
democratic. The present plan is also
satisfactory to his democratic
friends at Des Moines and elsewhere.
Ii enables them to support him in
the republican primary and their
own ticket at the general election.
The democrats in their state plat
form advocated the Oregon plan, but
its most ardent friends are the pro-
gressive candidates for senator. Mr..
Cummins has turned down in favor
OF Gen. Byers, whose cardinal recon-
mendation in the senator's eyes is
that his success would eclipse Con-
gresham Walter /. Smith, at pres
ent the cloud no larger than a mans
hand which rests on the political
horizon of 1915.-Dubuque Times.

READY FOR CHRISTMAS.

This is time of feverish activ-
ity in church circles. For some
weeks the boy has regarded Sunday
school attendance as good sport
ing proposition. The choirs meet
twice a week to practice their more
or less reverent warblings, while
out in the country a fine opportun-
ity for Cupids darts is offered the
young folks by long tramps through
woodland solitudes in search of ev-
ergreen trimmings.
In spite of all freakish aspects,
man must be withered up old
cynic who does not respond to this
Tsmphony of gTeenery, music, child
voices, and the memory of earth's
most sacred leader. The warning
old pagan world for the first time
heard message of love and peace
when Jesus was born. His birthday
means more TO everyone of us in
terms of hope and joy than all the
other anniversaries put together
Suffering and want are endured by
some of us, but in the main it can
be merry Christmas to us if we
will but have it so, particularly if
we try to make it merry for some
one else.

Carnegie's BenefactiOns.

Andrew Carnegie has given $10,-
aid in the movement for universal
peace The income of half a million
dollars is to be expended under the
direction of trustees, and the foun-
dation is to be perpetual. When
universal peace becomes established,
the revenue shall be devoted to the
Punishment of the next most degrad-
ing of evils, the suppression of
which would most advance the pro-
gress, the elevation and the happi-
ness of men.
Carnegie's gift of s10,0O0,00O
for the furtherance of international
peace, bring the total benefactions
up to about 100000. The en-
dowment is second in size only to
three others of his, the $10,0OO,O0O
foundation for the advancement of
teaching in 1905 and increased to
SIS, 100000 in 1908, the $4,000
900 endowment to the Carnegie in
stitute of Pittsburg and $12,000.0O0
for the establishment of a Carnegie
institute at Washjr ton. Carnegie's
gifts to librarie .uring the past
twenty years are Estimated at $36,-
100000 for U. S. and $4,000, 900
abroad. These and his other bene-
factions make the grand total of
only half a million short of a round
$3.50, 900, 200. j
A conservative estimate places
John ID. Rockefeller's gifts to insti-
tutions at $12O,OOO,OOO, all but a
small part of it being for education-
al purposes.

ENLARGING FACTORY OUTPUT.
SwensOn Valve Company Selling
Bonds to Add New Machinery
and Larger Force to
Factory.

The committee Of the DEBORAH
Commercial Club having in charge
the matter of the increase in the
working force and the addition of
new machinery asked for by the
Swenson Valve Co., of this city, has
been at work GA the proposition for
several days, and now has plans
complete for presenting the matter
to the business men and citizens.
The rapid increase in the number
of orders received by the company
during the past few weeks, result
ing from the completion of the de-
velopment of new plans ana new
models, which are superior and
more readily sold than the models
heretofore made, have made it i'm
perative that something be done at
once to enable them to at least
double their output. Several liber-
from other cities to induce them to
move, but the men behind the fac
tory want it to remain in DEBORAH
The company asked for $4,000 for
the purchase of additional machin-
cry and metal in car load lots, etc,
the installation of which will great
ly reduce the cost and increase the
production, thus yielding much
| larger profit. Besides this, the COM
pahy must more than double ITS
working force at once, in order to
take care of the orders which are
coming in rapidly and regularly
The Valve Sales Co., which has
charge of the selling of the pro-
ducts of the factory, are ready to
place additional statesmen on the
road, and it seems now to b: only
question of the filing of the ord
ers from the local factory
1t was believed that the quickest
and best way to handle the r.atter
was by the issuing of convertible
bonds, running for five years, and
bearing seven per cent interest
These bonds are first lien on all
the property of the company, and
are convertible into stock of the
company at the option of the pur-
chaser. This is certainly the most
liberal proposition possible on the
part of the company Legal notice
was given the stockholders, and a
meeting held on Saturday, at which
this action was voted.
The committee are now engaged
in selling these bonds. They ought
to be met with a ready reception
by every person interested in the
growth of DEBORAH. Such a safe,
liberal investment, with the oppor-
tunities of developing a large in
stitution here, ought to meet with
no opposition, and we believe that
the committee will accomplish the
desired result, and the DEBORAH Com
mercial Club become a reality and
something of value to DEBORAH.

THE SALOON QUESTION.

Winneshiek county is in the
throes of contest to determine
whether or not saloons may be OPP
Grated under the law after the ex-
piration of the present petition of
consent, July 1, 1911. The contest
has been waged since election day,
Nov. Sth, and prospects now seem
good for 1t to continue for several
months, for as we write the board
of supervisors has not made a find
ing as to the petition of consent and
the petition of withdrawal, and
whatever the finding shall be, it
seems practically certain that the
matter will be taken into the courts.
Animosities will be engendered that
may last for years. People have
quite probably been induced to sign
both of these petitions by the use
of threats and coercion. Men have
signed one or the other or have
ANANSSu W oi6h ChCHl as luCy lCll
most advantageous to themselves in
the appearance of their names in the
public eye. This destroys the free,
open expression of opinion or judg-
ment which the law should contem-
plate.
In the opinion of many this great
question should be settled at the
polls, it should be settled where
other questions of public moment
are settled, by secret ballot. OPP
portunity for intimidation on either
side should be eliminated. Further,
this vote should be taken at the pub
lie elections, for at least three rea-
sons, the saving of expense, the fact
that the submission of the matter
would induce voters to come out to
vote in larger numbers, and the ap-
pearance of a voter would not be
taken to mean that he had come to
vote only on this question.

MADONNA AND CHRIST-CHILD.

There ought to be an end to this
tariff discussion. The farmer, even,
does not pillow forever. He plants
awhile before he plows again. We
have had a long time of blowing.
Is it not now time to plant? In
broader sense, we have had num-
Der of years of criticism and fault
finding. The army Of progress has
been halted, for inspection and re-
view. Is it not time for general
orders to be issued commanding a
forward march. The manufacturers
could progress under the present
tariff. The producers of raw ma
terial could progress under it. There
has been large, almost universal
increase in wages, and the wage
worker could prosper under it. Who
is dissatisfied? The truth is, no one
is dissatisfied, except as he is told
by some politician that some wrong
is being committed against him. The
wool schedule certainly can not be
disastrous. Imports of wooden goods
are increasing. No new wooden mills
are being erected, which would be
the case if such manufacturing were
tremendously profitable. There are
thousands of sheep in Iowa. Cover
nor Carroll states that three are ov-
er $4,000 head of sheep in the
county of Davis. There used to be
wooden mills in southern Iowa.
l.ere are none now. Not a new
wooden mill has been erected in
Iowa in forty years.
Possibly we are the only state that
ever lost population because of too
much money. However, while we
have lost 1000 people, it is not
within our knowledge that we have
lost a single one of our politicians.
They are with us yet, and as busy
as formerly, telling how the Iowa
hog can be sold for $40 per hun
dred and New England can have
hog meat at cents per pound.
Some of our people are willing to
continue the partnership with Mas
sachusetts. Others are not. If any
man were to make campaign for
governor of Iowa, promising to take
the duty off food products, or even
promising the free admission of
farm products from Canada, he
would be defeated by 100000 ma
jority, unless some one moved to
make it unanimous for his defeat.
Iowa is in favor of protection, and
has never voted otherwise. On two
distinct occasions, during the past
ten years, the republicans of Iowa
have asserted themselves for pro-
lection. They asserted themselves
against reciprocity in competitive
products. Some republicans think
they could bring prosperity to the
country by means of low tariff
But the democrats, with exactly the
same doctrine in regard to a low
tariff, have never been able to bring
prosperity.
