1t Is said their was conside rabe excitement
on a well-known farm hereabouts when sew
eral head OF frightened cattle recently under
took to break down the fence that kept them
OFF the roadway.
But the owner said that his fence turned"
them In snch "a kind, gentle, soothing" way
that they changed their minds In hurry, but
We're in no way injured by the shock.
That is one big advantage in fence-tc re-
pei the attacks or animals with just enough
give" to protect them but still with the
strength and stand-up-ability that settles the
matter that there is no getting through, over
or under.
The fence in question was the American

worth Investigating by any farmer who wants
every dollar Of his fence money to go the
farthest-secur re the most. American Fences
are sold In weights & sizes for every purpose.

Warming to Auto Owners.

Secretary Hayward, in a circular
he is sending out to the owners OF
motor cars, may cause some alarm
among those who regard the motor
tax law as something to be observed
or not as the fancy may dictate. He
calls attention to the fact that viola
tions of the law are classed as mis-
demeanors, and that no person has
a right to use a last years numbe,
or to run any car for single day
without a proper number plate. and
that no person under Is years car
run a motor without the owne- being
along and that no intoxicated per.
son can run a motor car. tt en- he
also calls attention to the fact thai
under Iowa laws it is the duty of q
sheriff or. deputy to ferret oIt crime
apprehend and arrest criminals, and
as far as within their power, tC
secure evidence of crimes and pre-
sent the same to the county ATTORNEY
or grand jury. The new motor lav
was not very rigidly enforced thi!
year because it is new, but mex. yeal
it is probable the law will be follow
ed up very closely.

HOLIDAY BUSINESS GOOD.
DecOrah Business Houses All Do Big
Business, and Every Merchant
is Pleased With the
Trade.

Practically every merchant in the
city reports that he is highly pleased
with the holiday trade this year. II
has proven to be one of the best
years for some time. Trade began
reasonably early and kept up stead
lily until Christmas Day, and Satur-
day was one of the busiest days in
Decorah in good many years, in
fact various stores report the larg-
est days business ever done. People
bought better class of Christmas
gifts this year than ordinarily, and
the cash business was better than
ever. in other words less accounts
are carried on the books for holiday
goods than in some time, all of
which reflects the prosperous condi-
tion of this part of Iowa, and the
excellence and completeness of the
stocks of goods carried by the De-
corah merchants.
We believe that Public Opinion
contributed its full measure toward
this result. Early in the season we
reviewed the various stocks of holi-
day goods carried by the merchants,
and for a month previous urged the
people to buy early and showed them
where to buy with the most COM
prehensive editions of a newspaper
ever printed in northeastern Iowa,
four big issues, in which practically
every business was represented, car
rying the store news into every cor
ner of the county, and beyond. We
know the people read these adver-
tisements, and we believe that they
were Influenced largely by them.
So far as this paper is concerned,
We are more than pleased with the
years business, and take this occa-
sion to express our gratitude to all
who have contributed toward it,
promising you our very best efforts
to continue in your confidence. Sat-
urday was the best day ever known
in this office for new subscriptions,
excepting during our piano and auto
contests.

WANT BRIDGE OVER
HARBOR CANAL
CONTINUED from Page l.,

apply to the county council at a meet
ing to be held November 1 for the pur-
pose of providing for a bridge to span
the canal at Chicago avenue. and it IS
hoped at this meeting that the council
may be prevailed upon to build the pro-
posed temporary bascule bridge at
Canal street.
Canal street has been paved but the
contract for the J paving of the
thoroughfare provided for the construc-
tion of fixed bridge. This was left
until the last and in the mean time the
canal was taken over by the United
states government, who refused to APP
prove of the plan for the fixed bridge,
or to permit its construction. So it has
been found necessary to provide plans
for bascule bridge which will at least
meet the needs of the traffic over this
roadway for a few years. 1t is believed
the plan provided by the Stroebel peo-
Pile will comply with all the require
ments both Of the people making use of
the street and Of the government. The
situation now presents finished road
way which is unavailable to traffic. ow-
ing to the fact that there is no bridge.
The building of a bridge is of great i'm
portance tot the people both of Whiting
and Indiana Harbor and no difficulty Is
anticipated In convincing the county
council of the urgency of their i'm
mediate approval of some place for a
bridge which will meet the. demands OF
the government and place Canal street
at the disposal of those who wish to
make use of It,

ing the matter through and who went

end in view included Charles E. Fow-
Ter, Fred Gastel, Barney Cohen, George
