name nEASLlP
FOR CAP TAINCY
Man Who captained Company A for
Number of Years Asked to
Again Take up Military
Reins.
ROLLINS ALSO NAMED
Mr.. HeaslIp Thinks His Former
Captain is Man for the Place
Adjutant General Will
Arrive Tomorrow.

Henry A. Heaslip, who served for a
number of years as Captain of Co. A,
Fiftieth Iowa regiment, has been
rendered the captaincy of the company
OF National guards which is to be or
ganized in Keokuk.
But the veteran does not feel justi-
fed in accepting the proffer. He de-
clares he is getting too old, and that
the position should be given younger
man.
There is nothing admire so much
as military drill" said Mr.. Heaslip,
as his thoughts wandered back remi-
nicently to the many hours that he
spent in working his way up from a
private to the time of his captaincy.
1T makes the greatest show In the
world. could never see the real
reason why Company A was disband-
ed Keokuk should have a company
of National guards, but there should
be list of one hundred and fifty
instead OF eighty now ready to enter"
Urged BY Brookhart.
Care shold be taken in selecting
young men who have secure positions;
those who are not likely to leave the
city In six months or q year Those
taken in should also have an interest
in the work, for that is necessary for
success.
While do not feel like accepting
the captancy Of the company to be
formed, 1t will give me the greatest
pleasure to assist as much as possible
In the organization and early drilling.
al remember Col. Brcokhart visited
Keokuk several times during his re-
cent campaign for the nomination for
congressman from this district on the
republican ticket. During those visits
he came to me and said that Keokuk
should have company of guards and
urged it strongly
Names Ruger Rollins for Place.
"In my estimation Kruger Rollins is
the man for captaincy of Keo1uk's
company of National Guards. Rollins
was the best sergeant in the state OF
Iowa while he was a member of Com
pany A, and no one is better qualified
for the position. Rollins entered the
old Keokuk company as private, and
his rise in the ranks was rapid"
Mr. Heaslip is highly enthused with
the thought that Keokuk is once more
to take its place in military ranks and
he can be depended upon to do all in
his power to promote the organization.
Logan Expected Thursday.
1t is likely that Adjutant General
Logan will arrive in Keokuk early
tomorrow afternoon on the Rock
Island trains 1t is planned to receive
the adjutant royalty, and with this end
in view a number of automobiles have
been secured. Containing number
/ of prospective members, the automo-
biles will meet the visitor at the train,
and he will be escorted about the
city on q sightseeing trip. Following
this will come conference and a
visit to halls that the proposed COM
pany las in view.
Since the list was published yester
day there have been few more
names added 1t is urged that all
those who have not signed do so al
once. The list does not include al
that are wanted and any others who
would join are invited to do so.

the meeting yesterday said that the
change in fashion had much to do
with 1T. They declare that many of
the larger buttons have gone out.
That those of forty-five lines are not
cut any more and it was in these large
sizes that the big money was realized
Now the only buttons cut are the
smaller ones of q standard size, which
will remain in the market for years
Mr.. Vetter also declared that button
factories have become stocked with
thousands of buttons that they cannot
dispose of, and which recent fashions
have done away with.
I'VE simply foresaw that a cut
would have to be made by all factories
along the river" were the words of
Vice President vetter, land thought
We would cut Immediately before wait
ing for q slumping market to catch

News Gratifying.
1t is gratifying to The Gate City to
publish the news that the strike prob
lem-the first OF any Importance the
city has had in recent years-has been
adjusted without any hardships to
either the men employed or the COM
pany affected. The button factory is
an institution founded in Keokuk but
recently and has worked it's way into
the life of many homes by furnishing
work. The men employed receive
good wages and the working mans
conditions there are of the best in
Keokuk.
The button factory is likewise the
first manufacturing concern Of any
size that the Commercial club has
brought to Keokuk and the president,
secretary and directors take an inter-
est in it for this reson, and also be-
cause of the written contract that ex-
lists.

The button market will soon receive
its hardest blow and officers of the
Hawkeye Pearl Button Company say
tat they made the cut here only
because they had been able to foresee
big slump. Tracing the cause for
the coming slump, which will cause
every factory along the Mississippi

Good Radiance Says Anty Drudge.

Mrs. Dontknow-"Oh, dearl Oh, dearl What shall
do? Here I with the biggest washing for months,
and there is great big rust hole in the bottom of my
washboiler"
for you. Just throw the wasllboilcr away make
ash of it, and wash with this cake of Fels-Naptha
soap I've brought you. Use It IN cold or lukeWarm
water easy directions inside OF tell you,
and you'll never want washboiler about the place
again.
You are always ready to use Fels-Naptha
soap That is great advantage.
Say you want to wash few white things
on holiday. You don't build hot fire and
make the house like an oven to heat water.
With Fels-Naptha you just get bowl OF
cold water and wash the things.
It's SO simple, SO easy. No boiling OF
Clothes; no steam, no nauseous odor.
Same way if you want to remove an
accidental grease spotfrom the floor or wash
awindow marked by sticky fingers. When
there's cold water near, Fels-Naptha IS
always ready.
You'll appreciate this readiness on wash
day. No washboilers and stirring paddles
to bother with, no hot fire to keep up, no
danger Of scalding your hands.
Likewise in washing dishes. Fels-Naptha
will cut the grease in cold or luke
warm water, no matter how long they have
stood before washing. And there's no heat
to crack delicate china or glassware.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

MAKING NOMINATIONS.

The ancient democracies practiced
not only direct nomination Of candi.
dates for ONCE. but direct legislation
- well. The proposed laws were sub.
mitted to the qualified voters, and
were accepted Or rejected. according
to the will Of the majority. A popu.
lation increased and democracies en-.
tended over great areas, the represent.
alive system Of lawmaking grew up,
In some form the people Of more than
twenty-five States have adopted the
direct nomination system In place Of
the party nominating convention. Its
popularity 10 due largely to the belief
that It makes II easier for the voters
to control the action Of their party.
It 10 urged In its favor that Il destroys
the power Of the machine" and
makes 1t impossible for the "bosses''
to consummate corrupt agreements
among themselves. The friends OF the
system say further that It makes the
party Immediately responsive to the
will Of the majority through the elm.
ination Of the unnecessary nominating
convention. In spite Of its growing
popularity, many thoughtful men re.
gret that 90 much Of the time OF the
legislatures has been consumed In the
consideration Of plans for changing
the machinery by which nominations
are made and oficers chosen. The
only merit which they can see In the
change Of system 10 that it, discussion
