Speed Ordinance Broken
The speed ordinance was
su e broken last evening, when
Councilman McEvoy, with his
Mitchell touring car, went
west on Erie street at about
one hundred and fifty miles an
hour. The mayor and the city
attorney were in the rear seat
and they looked very uncom-
Portable when they went over
the crossings. Il was reported,
that the reason for this fast
drive was, some man had crept
through the barb wire fence at
the fair grounds and was max
ing away with some of the va
rious exhibits. We honestly
believe McEvoy was only show
ing the mayor the condition Of
the crossings. There is moth.
ing like getting at the seat Of
the trouble at once.

Why Is 1t?

SSAA0SeS wv w. SsessS ~sSS
Of the best and most produc-
tive States in the American
Union, has during the past ten
years, decreased in population
from 2, 231, 1853 in 1890 to 1924.
III, or a decrease in the past
ten years of 1882, we wonder
at the loss in population, and
can find no reasonable excuse
why this should be so. Here is
a s. ste lying between the two
gre az rivers, the Mississippi
and the Missouri, two of the
greatest rivers in America,
with innumerable small and
beautifulrivers traversing the
state from north to south,
lakes, for beauty and pleasure,
not surpassed anywhere, both
we'll stocked with fish and
fowl, and offering delight fu
summer resorts for the people,
without any waste land, and
producing every variety of
products common to this lati-
tude, easy of access to market,
reached by rail as every coun-
ty in the state has a railroad,
and being the only real "corn
belt" in America, and never
failing to produce a crop.
Here is a country as fair and
more beautiful than that Moses
looked upon from Pisgah's
lofty peaks when he gazed out
upon the fertile valley of the
promised land, and never fail
ed to produce a crop. We
have lived in the state for over
fifty years, and never knew an
entire failure in crop.
Our cattle are the best, and
our hogs always at the head of
the market. The water of the
state pure and clear and health
full and plenty. We have the
best school laws in the United
States, all free to all, finest
church buildings in the land,
and everything of the best, our
school teachers the pride of the
nation, and our law founded
upon justice and right, with a
population of intelligent and
christian people, and why any
should desire to leave this
beautiful land to seek a home
in the far west, is a question
hard to answer. They may
find cheaper land, a larger
scope of country for free pas
turage, a less densely settled
population to interfere with
their free pasturage, but in
point of actual prof, in the
sale of all products of the soil
or the increase of the stock on
the vast domain of Uncle Sam,
but for happy homes and SUBJ
stantial value, no place like the
beautiful land of Iowa.
We have helped to populate
t1e great west and southwest
and Canada, and yet for pleas
ant homes and general advant-
ages no state in tina union
equals the vast heritage of
God to man. Iowa, "The land
of the free and home of the
brave" why leave this beauti-
full land for a home in the west
or southwest Come back and
enjoy this beautiful, .productive
and happy land of Iowa.

Theodore Sweet of Whitehorse came in on last nights train enroute to the outside where he will visit for a short while in vancouver and other Sound cities after which he will re turn North. This will be MT. Sweets first trip outside in the past seven wears and he feels that he needs a vacation.
 Mr. Sweet has some mining inter ests in the Whiteborse section. His properties are located near the Pue- bio mine and the Copper King and he expects to return and commence active work prospecting, His deter miuatoo to get at his prospecting early as possible has been arrived at principally because of Skagway's ac- ton in building the test stamp mill.
 The fact that Skagway Is building Che min he. says has created a great deal og favorable comment over in the Whftaborse district Everyone in that section can at once understand the immense advantage the min will be to the country.
 The White Pass, he says. has promised to bring their ore for sam bling purposes over to the mill free of charge therefore the mill will be a great incentive to the prosPectors. Knowing that they can get a test showing absolute values of their ores at minimum cost the prospectors will get busy and before long, or as soon as the min is ready to receive it, ore samples will be sent in and the en- tire country will commence to Gyen up.
