INTERSTATE COMMERCE MEN

informed citizen will rise UP to say
that the commissioners are not entitled
to some weeks of fishing. If they
leave their desks and forget to
tell what their postoffice addresses
will be no one can blame them. The
interstate regulators have been up to
their ears in business. and noun
tain is rising before them. On the
18th Of this month they will take to
the woods and they will commune
with nature until the early days OF
September And then! Thousands
of complaints will fall upon them.
Shippers from everywhere will try
to show the men who stand between
them and higher rates that the bust

people do not have many confidential

THOSE SEALED POLL BOOKS.
[Algona Republican,.


There is one feature of the election
laws in our state that is always max
ing trouble for county officials and
boards of supervisors and that is the
requirement. that neither the county
auditor nor the board of supervisors
when assembled together, have the
right to open the sealed sack of ballots
and procure the poll books, when the
same has been placed with the ballots
instead Of remaining in the outer sack
where it can be secured without trou-
BILE. Either there should be re-
vision regarding this matter. or there
should be a school Of instruction for
judges and clerks Of election, before
they commence their duties SO that this
error of placing the poll book in the
sack and having it sealed up with the
ballots will not occur every time there
is an election.
Take the example Of what happened
here last Tuesday. In four precincts
out of the thirty-six in Kossuth coun-
ty, returns were made to the auditor
with the poll books sealed up and in
with the ballots. No one has the au-
thority to open the sack and secure
the poll book, except the judge OF the
district court, and he only upon the
demand and contest of some OF the can
didates who have reason to believe an
Investigation will change the result OF
the election.
The board Of supervisors sat as an
election board yesterday, but as far as
the returns from the Algona- Third
ward precinct, the Greenwood. Lone
Rock, and Riverdale precincts are
concerned, the expense Of holding an
election might just as well never been
incurred. for the tally sheets are seal
ed up and the vote Of those precincts
cannot be counted The board of sup
ervisors will pass upon the vote as cast
in the thirty-two precincts OF the coun-
ty instead of the full thirty-six pre-
cinets.
The returns for the above four pre-
cincts. as given out by the auditor are
merely the unofficial record given by
the clerk, or report of parties who had
kept check upon the work OF the cleo
ton Judges and clerks, and the only
way the candidate or the public VIII
ever know the official returns, ana Tor
whom the votes were DolIed IN these
four precincts, win be for some candi-
date whose nomination or defeat is IN

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

Record "The democrats will control
the house Of representative by ma
jority so large that they will be In
each others way. Everyone in Wash

that, instead Of gaining. the democrats
will lose in Iowa They have one
member now but when the smoke OF

will have none. And If the republicans
should control the house, and stand

one Iowa people would prefer to see

ache tablets. Another advised them
to get plenty Of fresh air and sun

These estimable people no DOUBT
mean well, but they are handling q
problem that is a trifle too deep for
them They do not seem to know
that the working girl, like the work
ing boy, is recruited from all walks or
life They are attempting to treat
the workers as class, and more or
less of an inferior class, that needs
some one to tell them how to play
as well as how to work.

heretofore claimed that they had
surplus OF power say that it is all well

is no great shortage of cars or conses-

There is a heavier movement of mer-

freight which is bringing in d greater
revenue and swelling earnings so that

Numerous peculiar features In the

Colder weather has brought an I'M

rapidly, and in jeweIry and fancy goods
exceeds that of previous years. Pur-

plies o corn and oats are the largest
ever known. and while they are not
moving in large volume because farm
ers have been busy in the fields and
are dissatisfied with the low prices,
they will have to be marketed in the
next eight months, as they cannot be
held on the farms indefinitely as the
grain was raised to sell, and viii
eventually be disposed of regardless If
price.
Grain traffic last week was below the
averag e for this season, due to the low
prices and to farmers being too busy
husking corn and doing other field
work while weather conditions We're
favorable. Deliveries at Chicago for
the week decreased 100000 bushels, or
16.5 per cent from the previous week.
915.0O0 bushels, or 90 per cent from thu
same week last year. and $1,000 bushels,
from the average for the past five
years The only increase for the week
was 5000 bushels of wheat, while de-
bushels oats. and 117O00 bushels barley. |
Despite the large reduction in corn, tha
deliveries were the heaviest as COM
pared with four years. Decreases as
