THAT COUNTY HOSPITAL.
Humboldt Republican

Buena Vista county is to vote on a
proposition to establish a county hos
pital. 1t seems sure that the estab-
lishment of county hospitals will soon
be common thruout the state. 1t is
we'll known that local physicians have
ample skill to treat the diseases at
their doors, but are held in check by
lack of facilities for proper attention
and care of their patient. The county
hospital solves the problem Of local
treatment, and incidentally keeps at
home the cash of the patient besides
saving him an added expense. 1t may
seem cold-blooded to speak of dollars
and cents in connection with treating
the afflicted yet sober thought tells US
that we should secure the best for our
money in medicine and surgery as
we'll as in merchandise, and it is sure
that we can secure competent treat
ment at a nominal expense by the
county hospital, where We pay out
hundreds of dollars in travel and ex-

WHAT ROAD DRAGGING DOES.
rcio,,y CITY, 1,rihupa1

Sioux Cftyans need not go five miles
from their own dooryards to see what
wonders little work with the King
road drag will do for country road
to make 1t a boulevard. If they need
to be convinced that it is not only
worth working for but worth putting
money into, let them cross the North
Riverside bridge and go out over the
.McCook road. 1t will be a revelation.
There a road that had been all but i'm
passable at most seasons Of the year
for decade and furnished an almost
unsurmountab BILE obstacle to the popu-
larity of the lake. has in a single sea-
son. at the cost of $40, been changed to
the best road leading into Sioux City
The proof is in the riding.
Last May the summer cottagers at
McCook, headed by F. L. Wirick, sub
scribed to a fund to take care Of the
road, and got the Sioux City Automo-
bile Club to make subscription. The
superintendent of the road was left to
Mr.. Wirick, who contracted with a
farmer near by to drag the road after
every rain and as many other times as
might be needed.
Up to this time, says Mr.. Wirick
just forty hours Of work has been put
on the road by q man and team, and the
cost has been $40. BY the end of the
season the total cost of maintaining
this two and one-half miles Of the
toughest road in the Sioux City vicin-
ity will have reached $50. He says II
would have cost practically no more to
maintain four miles of highway.
1T should be borne in mind" said
Mr.. Wirick, that this McCook road

RESUBMISSION.
Hardin County Citizen. I

| What is to be gained by resubmfs-
sion? Just why would constitutional
prohibition be more enforceable than
statutory prohibition? Does the change
of the location of a law from page
499 to 10 make it more susceptible Of
enforcement? Just how will resubmfs-
sion be more effective than statutory
prohibition-in eliminating the appe-
! titles of men, in removing the obstacles
| of the United States constitution pro-
viding for interstate commerce, in
! stopping manufacture, in obliterating
the greed of human nature, in build
| ing a stronger public sentiment for
! temperance, in the determination of
the bootlegger? Just how will resub-
mission make the law more enforceable
| in either dry or wet sections of the
state? Just how will resubmission
settle the liquor question and settle
| it right for all time to come? By
what strange and miraculous fiat is the
| human race to change by the twinkling
| of an eye?
| And what is to be gained by the
repeal of the mulct? In the prohibit
ton sections of the state the mulct Is
an additional penalty added to the old
prohbitory law. In liquor sections of
the state it regulates and places under
strict legal restraint a. traffic that the
straight prohibitory law had utterly
failed to stop turnout decade or more
of persistent effort.
Public sentiment has about reached
point where the mulct law will be
| tolerably strictly enforced in liquor
sections of the state, where the permit
section of the prohibitory law in the
temperance sections will be repealed,
and where the climate will grow hotter
for the bootlegger.
Restrbmission can do no good in
temperance communities. 1t would
bring lawlessness and disorder in liquor
communities. What's the use?

REMAINING HUNTING GROUNDS

burlington Hawkeyel.
In the early days, the whole state of
Iowa was a hunters paradise and the
red men we'll named it the Fair Land"
The woods and the prairies abounded
with all sorts of game, and the
streams were full of fish. And the red
man, who was evidently not so fond of
slaughter as his white brother took
what he needed, and no more, and was
thankful to the Great Spirit. And the
white man came into the land, and
drove out the red man and slaughtered
the game, and cut down the forests,
and turned prairies into fertile fields,
and poisoned some of the streams and
fished out of the others. Here and there
he left spot that seemed untitled for
planting, and now these last resting
places for the game birds, are being
drained and turned into corn fields,
and the hunters days seem to be over
in Iowa.
There are some funds at the disposal
Of the hunters, and more would soon
be available il a definite plan and pur-
pose were advocated. The lakes and
ponds that cannot we'll be drained,
ought to be bought up by the state.

the state, and ought to be made into
perpetual game preserves, where do
nesticated game can live in compare
tive safety and where migratory birds
may rest from their long flight. There
are islands in the big streams that
might be devoted to this purpose. I'm
less something is done, and that
quickly. there will soon be no need Of
any hunters license in Iowa, for there
will be nothing to hunt.

GIRL SHOCKED
 BY LIGHT WIRE
MayO'kieh, Six Years Old Suffers Severe Shock by Touching Reel
 on Light Post.

May O'keiff, six years old, the lit- tie daughter of Mrs. Jack oKieff, of No All West Barraque street, was severely shocked yesterday evening about 7:90 o'clock, by putting her hands on the reel of an arc light, post at the corner of Barraque and Olive streets. The playmates who were near the little girl ran to her aid, and when they caught hold of her they also received shocks from the current. She was knocked to the ground, where her lifeless body was picked up by Joe Clements, who lives on the corner below the home.
 The little girl with several con- panions was playing on the corner, according to the statements of eye witnesses, when she happened by the post and caught hold of the reel, by which the arc light is lowered and raised. She was held by the wire, while her playmates tried to pull her from it but could not. She was knocked to the ground with such force tfat for about three minutes she xas unconscious
 She was removed to her home one door from the corner, where she re- ceived attention Many who saw the accident thought that the little girl had been electrocuted. Some state that while she was held by the pow erful current her feet were burning as the circuit was made by her be- ing on the ground. Her arm was scorched as were her toes. At a late hour last night she was resting easy.
