ment she had against him in the su-
preme court of Kings county, New
York. on breach of promise plea. in
a suit filed here Miss Broderick as
serts the judgment was returned
against Probst April IS, 1910, and asks
for the cancellation of an agreement
by which she accepted the contents
of a safety deposit box in local bank
in full payment Of the 100000. She
thought the box contained $4,000
securities, but charges she found the
papers worthless
This is the third suit Miss Breeder
lex has brought against Probst. She
has followed him for six years from
Chicago to New York and then to De-
troit. 1t was in Chicago that she met
Probst, Miss Frederick alleges, and,
on promise of marriage, left her home
and took up her residence In an
apartment. Then Probst left, she de-
clares. After judgment was rem
dered in New York, she learned
Probst had securities here and brought
suit but finally settled with him for

between the two camps-and by foot

The first work which the construc-

house the men and horses and the

starting the work. Between Hamilton

A Square
Deal Implies
Reciprocity

Roosevelt is not the only American who
looks with favor upon this manly method OF
dealing with the other fellow, and who natural
" expects that other fellow to get back at him
in the same fashion. But for one party to
transaction to do business along these lines
and the other to want to take all and concede
nothing, makes it decidedly jug handled prop
osition, don't yoa think?
This is straight talk, and we think con-
ditions in this city demand this style Of con
versation right now
There are scores of men in KeolSuk who
are loud in their demands that people in this
city shall deal with the business houses of
this city, and have good deal to say about
patronizing home industry. And mind you, this
is the only proper stand to take, and the firms
signing this article believe in and practice this
common sense doctrine as also do number Of
other houses here, but what about the balance
of our people' Abraham Lincoln once said that
no nation could long exist half slave and half
free, and we know he was right How can the
business interests of any community enjoy that
prosperity, to which they are by virtue Of their
enterprise and thrift emitted, if one half Of its
members consistently deal with their home bus
their cash in other cities or with outside firms
As to saving money by this rather disloyal
dealing, it is safe to say that in nine cases out
of ten such slight and questionable gain is more
than offset by the satisfaction Of dealing with
the men you have known and grown to trust.
Whose words and goods and work are to be re-
lied upon; men to whom you may go whenever
things do go wrong, with the assurance that
the wrong or mistake will be cheerfully and
promptly righted And too, it is the HOME,
merchant and the home business man, to whom
our people invariably turn for credit to tide
them over the times of stress. until better
times shall come.
Friends, there are two sides to most everv
question, and there are to this Let us be fair
and square in our view and treatment Of both.
No honorable or sensible merchant in any city
will raise one single word of protest against
honest and straightforward competition in his
line but he has right to demand that such
competition be accorded no undue advantage
over him-that there shall be square deal all
around. vi
Of course, if the Keokuk business man is
taking unfair advantage Of his customers, by in
sisting upon as exorbitant charge for his goods
work or product. he must not be surprised il
said customers 60 esewhere to trade But all
other things being equal or approximately so
KEOKUK money should be spent with KEO
KUK tradesmen and for the welfare and pros
perity Of our little city it behooves us to pull
together at all times to that end, by SO doing
we can only realize what we have SO Ions

Newspaper Criticism.

Whatever criticism is found in
our papers bears upon the undue en-
phasis given the lay side of religious
activity and the impractibility of con-
verting America to christianity
through the instrumentality OF mere
wealth. Some of the critics may find
justification for their structures when
such sermons as the one preached by
the Rev. Mr.. Roundy of Hartford
practically eliminates clerical assist
ance and supervision from this cam
paign. Others are not SO confident as
some ministers seem to be that or
ganization and funds shall produce re-
suits. But there Is little inclination
to question the universal benefit that
will follow upon the winning back to
church allegiance the boys and men
that are drifting away While the
nom Catholic churches are occupied in
this manner it might be an opportune
moment for US Catholics to take
reckoning of our males and find
whether there is not need OF similar
summons within the fold
Through a coincidence It happened
that within two days of this declara-
ton in Connecticut of Roman Catholic
feeling regarding the Men and Relig-
ion Movement, away out In Portland,
Oregon, at the further end OF the
country. a paper called the Jewish
Tribune published leading editorial
entitled "A Great Religious Activity
which was equally sympathetic.

Opinions Of Catholics.

Some of the extractions from liter
ature which has been received by the
local committees, reads as follows:
The breadth and sweep of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement is
strikingly shown by the attitude of
both Roman Catholics and leading
Jews in widely separated parts of the
country, who are expressing hearty
sympathy with this continental effort
tc make for nobler manhood. In re-
cent issue of the Hartford, Conn,
Post was published an article entitled
Catholic Interest in Men and Relig-
ion,'' which occupied nearly full page
of the newspaper, and was printed in
type of unusual size and holiness for
the purpose Of emphasizing its i'm
portance. The opening paragraphs
are as follows:
.If this were homily the writer
might be tempted to use as text the
fiftieth verse of st. Luke's ninth chap
ter. The rebuke OF the Master who
chided the disciples when they would
have forbidden outsiders to do good
might serve for meditation to the
Catholic editors that seem inclined to
r,dicule the Men and Religion Move
ment of which we hear SO much now.
adays. Be it said, however, to the
glory of our lay and clerical scribes
that where one is inclined to criticise
this religious awakening, ten are
watching with interest and with nc
little sympathy the outcome OF this
widespread attempt to stir non-Cath
olic souls to fervor.
