Rev. A. E. Kepford. who repre-
sents the Iowa health commission as
organized by the state board of con-
troll, takes issue with the assertions
of w. B. Barney, state dairy COM
missioner, to the effect that the milk
of COW may not be contaminated
with tuberculosis even though the
animal be infected. In strong
speech at Mason City a few even
ings ago before the teachers of the
northeastern Iowa association and in
an interview subsequently he declar-
ed that no more vicious assertion
than that of Barney was ever made.
Mr.. Kepford went on to show that
the animal that is infected with the
disease is bound to give infected
milk, and recounted numerous in
stances where the disease present in
human beings was directly trace
able to bovine tuberculosis.

Il am deeply grieved over the death
of Senator Dolliver. In his death the
progressive cause loses one of its
ablest champions, the Republican par
ty one of its pillars, the state of Iowa
one of its active servants, and the
citizens of the state loyal friend.
Along with all other Democrats

The tenor of the dispatch is that col

will be heavier this year than ever
1t is expected that between $4,000
and 10000 homeseekers from the far
east and middle west will arrive in
Los Angeles within the next thirty
days. The daily average of colonists
brought into Los Angeles by the

of these homeseekers are being dis

Many years ago when editor of The

meeting of the Upper Des Moines Edi-
torial association, held at Fort Dodge,
and was the guest of then Congress
man Dolliver On his return to Keo-
kuk he gave his impressions. which
pleasantly recall both the subject and
the author of the sketch. He wrote:
Two days passed with Mr.. Dolliyer
at his home made us know this great
young orator in way we have de-
sired. He is not married, His father,
his sister and himself live in the same
home His father is a Methodist
preacher, not preaching now, but of
long service in the Western Virginia
conference. He is rugged and force
full man and his more than seventy
years and the loss of limb in late
years cannot stop his impetuous go.

the same type; low forehead, broad,

massiyely and he moves and looks
every inch a king of the platform.
When he was younger his head seem
ed small after the fashion of Shelley,
Byron and Keats, but now it is large
and proportionate to his body. He
was born Feb. 6. 1858, on a West vir-
GINA farm. Ten years later his faith

his children. ]. P. entered the public
schools at once, at thirteen he passed
into the freshman class of the state

1878, came to Iowa in 1881 and settled
at Fort Dodge. Since then his grow.

congressman is part of the pride and

expected you cannot put out your hand

EiIIina the Vacancy.


Burlington Hawk-Eye: With char
acterlstic American nervousness, the
people generally are discussing the
senatorial vacancy and canvassing
the merits of various Iowa public
men as successors of Mr. Dolliyer.
The dead orator has not yet been bur-
led, and vigorous speculation is rife
over the political situation. Distaste-
full as such haste may be to the pro-
prieties of the occasion, there seems
to be no way to avoid it by the press,
which is reflex of public opinion
and public conditions
1t now SENS probable that Cover
nor Carroll will make no appoint
ment to fill the vacancy, as the ap-
pointee could not have more than
five or six weeks to serve before the
next general assembly would fill the
vacancy by election. Not many repre-
sentative men would care to take so
brief an appointment without some
prospect of being duly elected in
January to fill out the remainder of
the term.
1t would also appear to be good par
fy politics to leave the general as
sembly unhampered in this respect;
that will give free-for-all race, and
be fairer to every aspirant. There are
two conflicting views upon this
point; II the Republican factional
fight continues there will be danger
that each faction will knife the
nominees in each representative and
senatorial district, according to the
predictions Of the voters in each case
in which case the Democrats might
make such gains as to carry the leg
islature and elect Democratic Unit
ed States senator; or, what is more
likely and more probable, the Repub-
licans, with the danger of Iowa fol-
lowing the example of Maine, would
bers of the legislature.
The latter contingency would be-
come much more reasonable and logic
al If there were some way to leave
the personnel of the succession an
open question until Republican
general assembly had been elected,
and then in some honorable and fair
minded way the wishes of majority
OF the Republicans OF Iowa could be
ascertained. This has led to the sug-
gestion as noted in special dispatches

ton be held on United States sena-

1T is supposed to be derived from

from Persian word meaning mes

The earths last thrill is exhausted,
for he's scared in the upper air,
He's plunged to the oceans darkness,
he's entered the lions lair.
He's busted bucking broncho, he's
fought in foreign land
He's cooked his hat TO a pontif, and
he kissed a kaiser's hand.
He's fought a fight with the senate,
and he's scrapped with the lower
house,
He's taken the role of the lion and said,
ITO hell with the mouse"
He's hurled at the Wall street mag
mates the short and ugly word,
And he's showed TO the British states
men the manner in which they've
erred.
He's conquered hot convention, he's
broken a state machine
He's written million volumes, he's
worked for magazine,
He's played till the nmelight's weary,
and the only thrill left to get
Is the thrill of ten years silence.
