A TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE
A Good Suggestion Comes From
Pella. Why Not Try.

The Pella Booster offers this sug,
gestion and it is one well worth being
given consideration:
''Pella has a number OF fans that
enjoy a good game of base bali and
we cannot see any reason why we
cannot organize a company TO back
up a good team at home and then
endeavor to organize a Tri'County
League with 0skaloosa, Newton, Prai-
RE City, Knoxville, Monroe and Pella,
This would give the team pretty reg
ular games, and would make it so
that each team would play an equal
number of games at home. The
members of the association of this
place could select a manager to look
after. the selection of players here
and it will give our citizens a sum-
mer's sport. Pella has some good
material and if they were under
proper management they could play
ball with some of the top notchers.
If you are interested let us know"

LET'SHAVE FULL COUNT
A Meeting of the Enumerators is
Called for This Evening.

The time in which TO find the miss

ton family is getting down to mar,
raw margin and some careful work
is necessary to get all who are still
uncounted. A meeting of the census
enumeratOrs will be held at the of.
flee of the Retail Merchants associa,
ton this Wednesday evening at 1880
o'clock to confer with a committee Of
the Commercial club to devise ways
and means of getting in the strag'
glers.
Conveyances will be furnished the
enumerators to get over their terri
tory and pick up any names missed
by the census takers. This is about
the extent of the assistance permit
ted by the government.
The names of parties not yet enum
Grated will be presented to the enum
orators this evening, that each one
may select those in his or her dis
trict.
If you have not been counted by

one not counted, absent from the city
but entitled to enumeration as cit
izen of Oskaloosa, call F. G. COlburn

The people generally are taking a
keen interest in seeing that Oskaloo'
sa has fair and full count and
many names have been turned in as
not having been listed by the takers
| In some of these cases the names
have since been recorded. Others
have been overlooked at places where
the enumerators have visited. This
public interest is commendable and
should be followed out to the close
Of The enumeration. Let no one shirb
a common duty and let's have count
ed every one entitled to enumeration

TARIFF LAW TO
Be THE ISSUE
Vice President Sherman So Declares
In St. Louis.
THE CAMPAIGN PLEDGE /: KEPT
Warns Against Opening Custom
Gates Too Far-lmports Are In
creasing in Lines Which Should
Be Produced at Home.

st. Louis, April 26.-Special: Pre-
dieting that the tariff in general, and
the Payne law in particular, is sure
to be the principal issue in the com
ing campaign, Vice President Sher
man in a speech here last night be
fore the Citizens Industrial associa
ton, said it was his duty as protec'
ZIONIST to defend its policy.
Campaign Pledge Kept.
He said that the tariff, was revised
substantially and successfully last
fall and that the republican patry has
kept it's campaign pledge.
He said that the law has been in
operation nine months and that 1t had
reduced the national deficit in year
from $7O,000,O00 to $15,000,O00. This
promised to be wiped out by the end
of the fiscal year.
High Wages of Workers.
Mr. Sherman declared that workers
are now paid the highest wages in his
tory. He said an estimate of the in
crease in wages granted this year
would equal $500,000,000. Farmers
are equally prosperous. He said with
this showing surely, we ought to
give such a tariff law fair trial"
Increase Of imports.
Speaking of the future he said that
imports are increasing at the rate OF
over 100000 a year, mostly in the
manufactures and goods to be used
in manufactures, nine-tenths of which
could have been made in this country
He said;
ITO that extent then, American pro
ductiOn has been displaced and at
least $25O,0OO,OO0 of American wages
paid to foreign laborers.
Should Manufacture at Home.
81 believe we should make at home
nearly everything we can instead OF
buying abroad.
IF we open the custom gates too
far, then we shall invite and have an
avalanche of foreign goods that Will
close our mills and drive our laborers
to idleness. Then will wages and
the prices fall"
Congressman Fassett, of New York
advocated the ship subsidy.
Former Congressman J. A. Watson
of Indiana spoke briefly.

MOTHERS DAY SUNDAY MAY 8
GOV. CARROLL ISSUES PROCLAIM
ALTON NAMING DATE.
REQUESTS Everyone To Wear White
Flower and Ministers to Devote
One Service.

Des Moines, Ia, April 26.-Speciai:
Governor Carroll has issued a proc
lamation urging the people OF Iowa
to observe Sunday, May 8, as Moth
ers' day. On that date he requests
that everyone wear a white flower,
preferably a carnation, and that the
ministers devote at least one service
during the day to the mothers.
His proclamation is as follows:
Il desire to call the attention of
the people of our commonwealth to
the fact that the second Sunday in
May is observed in many parts of our
country as Mothers day.
This is custom which has recent
ly grown up and a mere suggestion as
to the appropriateness of the occa-
sion is all that is needed to establish
it in the hearts and minds OF our peo-
pie. | have been asked to issue a
proclamation with reference to this
day, but have preferred rather to
give it my personal and official sane
ton in the manner herein set forth
rather than to issue a formal prOcla-
nation. The day has been establish
ed not by law, but by custom, largely
by church observance,
In memory of the mothers of our
country | earnestly recommend that
the ministers of our state devote one
service of the day to the memory of
the mothers, whether deceased or
yet living, and that as a token OF re-
mcmbrance every individual of our
state, who can do SO, wear a white
carnation. Let it be a regular flower
day in memory of mothers so that
those who may not be able to wear
a carnatiOn may wear a flower OF
some other kind, preferably a white
flower. 1t is patriotic and inspiring
to observe any of our national holi-
daysw neither in memory of the birth
of our nation or its great men and
fallen heroes, but no tribute is high
err and nObler than a tribute paid to
the mothers of our nation. Let us all,
therefore, join in the observance of
Sunday, May 8, 1910, as Mothers day.

Had Six leus.

Chas. Shroyer, who is engaged in
farming on the Edward Edris place
northeast of the city, is the owner OF
a SOW that gave birth to a pig with
six legs. The little animal lived and
was healthful and spry as any others
of the litter until smothered by the
mother in lying down upon 1t. The
two extra legs are at the back of the
hind legs and were perfectly formed
but not quite as long as the others.
The legs seemed attached by joints
and as good as the others, but would
probably not have been used in To-
comotion. The pig was of Chester
White breed. II was strong and live
lily in every other way and did not
appear to be Inconvenience by its
extra supply OF feet and legs. 1t
will be preserved in alcohol.
