From The Jefferson Bee.

The democrats of the state committed
serious political blunder at their
State Convention held last week in OF
tumwa. and have thus insured the cleo
ton of the republican State. ticket by
old time maiorities, in spite of the re-
publican fractional disagreements. They
have gone backwards forty years and
declared for liberal saloon policy on a
local option and high license basis. The
people of Iowa will not stand for the
open saloon. and will not give their ap-
prOval to any party which favors a
backward step on the matter of temper
ance. That might have worked in the
days of Horace Boies, but it will not
work now. There is too much enlight-
eminent and too high standard of
morality in Iowa to make it possible for
such proposal to win at the hands of
the voters.

Better Abandon The Old Pipe

John Maassen had quite an exper-
fence last week with a load of flax on
fire and runaway mule team. Mr..
Maassen was hauling flax in from his
field when the straw got on fire from
the pipe of a hired man. He at once
began to throw off the bundles of
straw, a lighted bundle hit the mules
and scorched their tails and away they
went for the barn. In passing through
the gate they hit q tree and came loose
from the wagon. The Straw and wagon
burned in the yard. If they had not
hit the tree and become loose from the
wagon, the chances are they would have
gone to the barn with the burning flax
and many if not all of his out buildings
would have been burned.-Avoca

Has Success With Alfalfa.

Some people have contended that
and do any good, but E. E. Grimes has a
three and one half acre field which was
sowed August IS, 1907, and in 1908 he
cut two tons from it in 1909 he cut ten
tons and this season he has cut seven
tons and will get one more crop and
possibly two this year. He has not a
very good stand either. 1t may be that
all land in this country is not suitable
for raising alfalfa, but there is no doubt
that some of it will raise it, and wher-
ever it will grow and do well YOU can
depend on good profit. -Massena Echo.

despair send him every item of news of

FADS AND fashions

New York. Nov. 12.-Velvet and fur
or velvet and lace, two truly royal COM
binations, seem to be the keynote Of
fashion at this season, not only in Paris
but also in New York. Every kind of
fur. from the cheapest to the most ex-
pensiVe is used in the costumes of
fashionable women at present and there
Is every reason to believe that the com
ing winter season will bring out a
larger number and variety of fur gar
ments of every description than have
been seen in many years.
Long coats of fur promise to be ex-
tremely popular this winter, although
there will also be three quarter length
and even shorter coats. A majority of
these coats, whether long or short, have
collars of long hair fur and the collars.

soft fine furs, are usually huge, extend

square sailor collar lines in the back,
and it may even pass all sailor lines
and drop to the waist line. or. like a
big, broad, square cornered panel, to q
point below the hips.
Combinations of fur are many in long
coats, short coats and small furs, the
last a decided misnomer for the necf
pieces and muffs are in most cases any
thing but small. Scarfs three-quarters
Of a yard or even a yard wide are not
unusual and these are proportionately

narrow or wide line is the best
Bead embroidery. especially in white
porcelain, is used on the velvet gowns
as decorative note. Many of the
most chic gowns display this novel
trimming. Broad black silk gallon. ar
ranged as long as straight bands on
blue mousseline de sole, was sen on
an Observation-Disclosures gown.
Embroidered bands on brocade are
thought by some women to be map
propriate, and they contends that when
the material is of a Powered or fgur-
ed design In plain satin or velvet is
better, being more of contrast, but
this winter many of the embroideries
resemble so closely the pattern and
color of the brocades that they seem
only to enhance its beauty. band
of embroidery around the hem on the
waist and in a diagonal line across
the front of the skirt is ppular
method of trimming, and when, as is
so often seen, the skirt is cut to open
at the side, showing an underskirt OF
another material. this embroidery fin
ishing the upper skirt adds greatly
to its beauty.
One of the pretty novelties, which
promises to become popular this whit
er is the high Japanese sash of satin,
with its broad bows at the back and
no ends. This style with the waist
less corset is sure to met with general
approval.
The velour outing hats have sprung
into favor recently. They combine the

either a long hair or short hair con-
trasting fur may form a border.
Pure white ermine with a border of
fine, silky black caracul, makes a
charming combination. and ermne,
bordered by skunk or other long dark
fur is also considerably used. Mole
skin, which has sprung into new popu-
larity "a popularity Well deserved be-
cause of this fur's softness, sickness
and exquisite brown gray tone, is COM

furs and seal is used with almost every
thing.
The huge soarfs are made up even
; in the thicker furs, such as sable, the
martens, oppossum, etc, but in such
! cases the one fur is most often used
with no combination or border effect
and thee one-fur scarfs are such used
even in the short hair furs, such as
seal, ermine and chinchilla. They have,
in the opinion of the fastidious, more
elegant air than the combinations of
furs and they are, undoubtedly, more
practical. being less cut up, more
easily remodelled and less spectacular;
| but these combination arrangements
are very modiSh this season and there
are always many women who do not
