People go out Of the state with their
money and those with money refuse to
come into the state.
Look over the public improvements
or the corporation improvements
made within the last two or three
years and compare with those Of ten
years ago. Note the decrease in pub
lie utilities improvements OF every
description. Compare the miles OF
railroad extensions with those Of years
ago. AS far as can be remembered
there was not an interurban line ex-
tension In 1910 outside Of that OF Wat
erloo, and those familiar with the mat
ter know OF the difficulties encoun-
tered in floating the necessary bonds
to meet the expenditures.
Capital does not seek Iowa invest
ments outside Of farm mortgages. Bad
laws have locked the door against cap
ital and the key is in the bottom Of the
well. Is 1t not time to call halt on
the procedure and treat the individual
with capital on. equality basis with the
one without wealth 2"
The present legislature seems to be
making some Roadway in correcting
these laws The tax ferret law has
been wiped out Other measures,
amendatory Of present laws are pend
-idg. 1t is safe to say that Iowa will
not be as ready in the future as 1t has
been In the past to enact legislation
driving money out of the state.

the first city in the country to cele-

met at dinner, drank numerous toasts,
made several speeches lauding Gen.
Washington, who had not then become
"a steel engraving" and departed,
mellow and happy, In the early hours
OF Feb. %. From that time on Wash
ington's birthday was celebrated an
nually in this city, the public at large
gradually coming to take part in the
observance. Other cities took up the
practice and before Washington be-
came president his birthday had been
celebrated in many psrts of the coun-

TYPHOID FEVER.

Typhoid fever, says an article in the
quarterly bulletin Of the Iowa state
board of health, is not reportable dis
ease, because Of recent legislation.
therefore the board has no means OF
knowing to what extent the disease
prevails in the state. The following
should. however, be kept In mind be-
fore the people:
Remember, typhoid fever Is preva-
lent during the autumn, winter and
spring months. It is q germ disease. 1t
Is contracted by ingestion Of typhoid
germs in water, milk. dairy products,
oysters and fancy foods that come in
contact with infected water, and milk.
These germs are contained in the ex-
cretions Of typhoid patients.
Our water supply may be contamiIl-
ated by faulty sewerage, surface drain
age or Funsanitary surroundings.
!, Our food may be infected through
the medium of flies.
Typhoid fever is preventable.
Boil all drinking water, If there Is
the least suspicion that it is contain
mated. l.5
Watch the source of your ice sup
ply.
Look after your milk supply and all
dairy products.
1t is we'll to remember that large
percentage OF the dairy herds are in
fected with tuberculosis.

Charlton, Feb. &c pecial.) -Cy-
rus Scott, who had resided in this
county for 614 years, passed away at
his home in Lincoln township yester-
day after an illness Of several weeks.
When . boy he injured his foot, but
never had any trouble with 1t until this
winter, when gangrene developed,
and q week ago last Saturday his leg
was amputated in the hope that his
life might be saved But the disease
had gained too strong a hold, and his
advanced age, 80 years, was against
him, and he was unable to Withstand
the operation and the ravages of the
disease. He is survived by wife, to
whom he had been welded Sc years.
and six children, George, Andrew, Per

RoAD LIBERALIZATION NEEDED.

"The present unpardonable waste OK
40 per cent Of the money actually
raised for road construction" says the
Technical World, lis simply due to the
fact that many people do not know
" at, q road is, and furthermore, they
would not know how to build one even
IL they did know what It should look
like. Witness Iowa. which now spends
$4,000, 900 q year on roads, yet scarcely
has q road worthy OF the name to show
for it. In that state waste is made easy
by dividing responsibility for road CON
struction work among local authorities
In q hopeless sortfof maze SO that no
one has any power or money to do any
thing effectively"
There is ground for the magazine
criticism OF Iowa. The boosters OF the
state have united in q demand for road
legislation that will permit OF some or
ganized effort at road Improvement.
It is up to the legislature to give some
attention to this matter.

IOWA LAWS AND POPULATION.

'The burden Of the argument adj
vanced by the orators OF the Cedar
Rapids Waterloo interurban in this
city Wednesday last. as to why the
result might not be accomplished, was
charged direct to the enactment Of
bad laws" says the Waterloo Re-
porter. TT was shown conclusively
that these laws had not only driven
out the people, but that the same PEG.
pie had taken millions Of dollars with
them. One OF the speakers cited a
Waterloo illustration, a man leaving
the city, taking his wealth with him
and investing 1t in large imposing
block in Los Angeles, California. The
same state law conditions as California
might perhaps have. saved the man
and gained the building for Water
loo" The Reporter adds:
There has been for several years in
the Iowa legislature q sort Of d class
legislation mania A desire to throttle
a corporation or Individual with wealth
to give him no quarter AS result
there has been change of quarters
and Iowa is the only state in the un-
ion showing decreasing population
"The corporation or wealthy individ,
ual should bear the burden OF the taxes
the same as any other citizen, but the
policy Of taxing beyond reason because
Of wealth will not keep the capital
working day and night in the county
or state.
Governor Horace Boies in writing
to Iowa friends from California gives
the passage OF drastic law measures as
one of the reasons for Iowa loss Of
population. He says the loss to the
state does not lie so much with the
people who have left the state as it
does in the fact that people refuse to
come into the state and subject them
selves to laws now on the statute
books and to the possibility OF future
unfavorable legislation.

death OF the arst president, the obser-
vance took on q more serious tone,
and the newspapers Of that time report
many sermons and eulogies, but no
merrymaking. The centennial cele-
bration OF Washington's birth. in 1892,
was marked in New York by famous
celebration.
Few cities in the country observe
holidays SO generally as New York
The citizens Of the metropolis dearly
love day off, and few who can pos
sibly do 80 neglect an opportunity to
spend day in merrymaking or joyous
idleness. The popular conception Of
New Yorker as blase individual
who has seen everything and knows
everything is, taking the population by
and large, an erroneous one. Any sort
Of a parade in-New York will attract
more attention and much larger
crowd than would a similar spectacle
in. any other city in the land. With
it's cosmopolitan population, New York
has holiday or festival OF some sort
nearly every day In the year.
The loss of his radiator did not pre-
vent ]. Fred Brown, of Martelle, Iowa.
from making 70-mile run to the fac
tory for repairs A collision with a
switch engine tore the radiator away,
destroyed both the lamps and put the
hood out o. commission, but without
damaging the engine. A large milk
can, filed with water and secured on
one Of the steps was made to do duty
as radiator. Circulation for the EN-
CINE jacket cooling water was pro-
vided by attaching piece OF garden
hose to the intake pipe and another to
lie exhaust and dipping the free ends
OF the pipes in the water in the can.
The novel makeshift acted perfectly
and the 7O-mile run was made without
mishap.
