 So far from being paid to make the appointment. the father of the young man on May 16. 1910, wired Mir.

 Hoval A Smith has devoted himself largely to discussion of the tariff question and has made it clear to the fruit growers of the Salt River valley that if they would not run the risk of being compelled to compete with the peon fruit growers of MeXi- co they would better send republican senators and congressman to Wash ington.

Do you not think it strange that that corporation commission which should have control Of all corporations doing business in the state and which should be q power for good in the state should be rendered poweriess by the constitution itself to control these two great corporations? Can il be possible that George W. r. Hunt was cognizant of the shack les attached to the limbs and gags placed in the mouths of the corpora lion commissioners of Arizona in the interests of what he terms big husi- ness by his child or were the shack les placed there by design?
 MT. Cameron has made clear to the people of Maricopa county during the week, what he found it necessary to do in Washington 10 secure statehood in spite of congressional and eXecu- tive disapproval of some of the feat ures of the constitution.
 With regard to the charge that he had connived at the disfranchisement of 1000 voters of Arizona, he denied il absolutely and made the counter charge that if any were disfranchised the blame should be laid at the doors af s,z- inc ig-fa on putting into the constitution fea- lures which they knew would be re- fused approval by the president had delayed statehood.

From the record he showed that on Sept 15. 1909 F.. D.

Leonidas Merritt. tonight declared he had heard it all before and it was easy to be seen that MT. Gates was more familiar with the ledgers of Mir Rockefeller than he was with the Bible, for the reason that his mind for years had been fixed on cash on earth rather than treasure in heaven.

INvENTs GRAIN SHOCKER.
Centerville Man Builds Machine That
is Said to Remove Many Diff
culties That Exist.

An invention that successfully
solves the problem of shocking grain
by machinery has been tested and
found perfect in the field test. 1t is
the investion of c.. r. Raney of Cen
terville, son of r. j. Raney, mem
Der of the county board of supervis-
ors. A large company went out to
the farm to see it work and were
greatly pleased.
The machine is attached to the
binder running on two wheels, and
following directly behind where the
sheaves are thrown from the knot
ter. An arm receives the sheaf on
pointed spikes, and carries it back
in a semi circle, placing it in the
holder where the shock is formed,
butts back. When the holder is full
it dumps automatically, turning the
shock up on end and firmly placing
it on the ground. The shock is tied
about with a piece of binder Irvine
before being dumped. 1t thus
stands securely in all winds that may
come, and the heads being held firm
ly together they do not bleach out
or take water in case of rain.
Farmers say it will more than pay
for the Irvine in the grain saved from
shattering out by the old method.
Those who saw it work are confident
Mr.. Raney has a practical invention,
which will soon be in use on all
binders. 1t weighs about 400 pounds
and seems just the thing to take off
side draft and steadies the binder.

4 Pony With Horse Sense.

Pomeroy Waite of Bradford has a
pony which displayed almost human
intelligence the other evening, says
the Nashua Reporter, and had its
master the ability to understand it's
language, he might still be driving
the old family mare TO town and
back
The old mare and the pony had
been running together in the pasture
and when Mr.. Waite went for the
COWS on the evening in question, the
mare and the pony followed TO the
river and crossed to the other side.
While Mr.. Waite was engaged in
milking, the pony came running to
the barn and whinnied, returning
shortly to the river. A few minutes
afterward the same thing was repeat
ed. This time Mr.. Waite began to
notice its strange actions and was
going to catch it, but it eluded him
and ran back again to the river. The
third time it came to the barn and
whinnied he managed to catch it and
put il in the barn, but it was very
restless. The next morning, on go
ing to the river, it was no trouble
for Mr.. Waite to understand the
pony's actions. In crossing the river
the old mare had got stuck in the
quicksand, where she died during
the night, and the pony had tried its
best to tell that there was something
wrong

"Respectable Dump" Raided.

Tuesday night at eight O'Clock the
mayor, town marshal and two spe-
cial policemen made a raid on re
spectacle dump" in one of the allies
of Ossian and captured two women
and two of Ossian's young men. They
had been holding down the dump
all day, evidently anticipating ''lu-
crative business " during the night.
Mayor SchmitZ was put next" to the
dump" early in the evening and af-
ter supper quietly enlisted two spe-
cial men who with himself and the
marshal 'swooped" down on the
dump" so Unexpectedly that it near
ly took away the breath of the occu-
pants of the dump"
The women were taken to the
lookup. The men were released on
their own recognizance to appear
yesterday morning in court. The wo-
men were retained until No. 8, east
bound, was due, and were taken to
the depot and deported on the prom
Use never again to return to Ossian.
They are originally from this county,
but of late have been making Nc
Gregor their home. One is an elder
ly lady and the other a lass of eigh-
teen, a daughter of the elderly one.
One of the boys appeared yester-
day morning and he was given time
until the departure of the first train
out of Ossian to vamoose. He
yamoosed. The other at this writing
has not yet appeared and it is be-
lieved he took leave without permits

BALLOON HORSE.
Comes Down Amid Shower of Fire
Works, Jupiter, Barnum 4 Bal
Iey's Balloon Horse Makes
Sensational Feature.

The most thrilling and beautiful
spectacle devised by any circus is
now being shown by Barnum & Bal
ley's circus. The act is presented
by Jupiter, the balloon horse.
Jupiter is assuredly an unusual
horse. The man who had the in
ventive genius to think of the act
and to train the animal is an UNI
usual man. The beautiful young
woman who has the courage to ac-
company the horse on its perilous
ride is no small part of the achieve
ment.
Jupiter comes majestically into
the arena and mounts the platform,
which takes the place of the usual
balloon basket. There is no railing
on the platform and it is just large
enough to hold the animal There
is no means of securing the horse to
this platform. The young woman,
dressed in white, the color of the
horse takes her place in the saddle.
Slowly the balloon rises. The cour-
age of the animal and its nervy
rider make thrilling picture. The
udHSeI lHfOlNeu III Iile UNDERTAKING
is the uppermost thought in the
minds of the audience. The slight
est nervousness on the part of the
horse means death to it and it's
rider.
When the great gas bag reaches
the extreme peak of the dome there
is the hiss and sputter of exploding
fireworks. The horse, with it's teeth,
has pulled string operating a bat
terry, which ignites hundred rock
cts, and they send forth Niagara
of fire stars. Horse and rider are
almost hidden from view in a veil
of flame. The descent is made in
lurid cloud of fire and white smoke,
and storm of applause greets the
spectacle.

RUNAWAY FIRE Is NOVELTY.
Loaded Hay Wagon Ignited and
Team Starts on GallOp-
Farmers Wife Saves Barn
by Presence of Mind.
w. B. Barney,
Commissioner.

A runaway fire was the novel and
rather disastrous spectacle on farm
just north of Oasis the other day.
A farmer started to burn some
weeds in a corner of bayfield,, leav-
ing a loaded hay wagon a short dis
lance off while he touched a match
to the weeds. A gust of wind carried
the fire beyond his control, and it ran
over the stubble to the wagon, Set
ting the hay on fire.
The horses, maddened at the blaze
behind them, ran away, and left a
stream of fire trailing behind them
across the meadow. They were head
ed for the barn door, but the farm
er's wife saw them coming, guessed
their bent, and swung the barn door
shut ahead of them. The team came
to a standstill and was unhitched in
time to save the horses, but the hay
and wagon were consumed. Neigh
bors turned out with plows to save
the hay fields.

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drugs law in its re-
lation to Prepared Medicines, does
not refer to such standard medicines
as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
and Foley's Kidney Pills, both of
which are true medicines carefully
compounded of ingredients whose
medicinal qualities are recognized by
the medical profession itself as the
best known remedial agents for the
diseases they are intended to coun-
teract. For over three decades
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
has been a standard remedy for
coughs, colds and affections Of the
throat, chest and lungs for children
and for grown persons, and it re-
tains today its pre-eminence above
all other preparations of its kind.
Foley Kidney Pills are equally effec-
tive and meritorious. r. A. Eng

GET AFTER EGG DEALERS.
Notice Sent to All Parts of State Re
cites 1t is Unlawful for Mer-
chants to- Sell Bad Eggs.

The sale of bad eggs is violation
of the state pure food law, according
to Commissioner Barney of the dairy
and food department, and all deal
ers will be held accountable for any
trafficking in eggs which are not
fresh.
In many parts of the state there
is ignorance of the law and the rul-
ing of the dairy and food department
relative as to the sale of eggs.
AS a warning and instruction to
dealers the commissioner has pre-
pared notice which is being sent
out to all parts of the state.
1t follows:
Iowa pure food law, section s,
part eighth, defines food as adulter-
ated and prohibits its sale, If it con-
sists of the whole or any part of a
diseased filthy, decomposed or putrid
animal or vegetable substance" The
commissioner holds that this in
cludes bad eggs.
1t is therefore unlawful for the
farmer TO sell bad eggs to the mer-
chant. 1t is also unlawful for the
merchant to sell bad eggs TO his
patrons, or to jobbers.
In the interest of fair dealing and
the enforcement of law, this depart
ment urges all farmers, dealers and
jobbers to give the widest publicity
to this circular, and 10 assist in the
enforcement of the statute by volun-
tary compliance with the same. BY
so doing, not only will it not be
necessary for penalties to be enforc-
ed but the financial interest of all
who sell or handle eggs will be adj
vanced. On account of numerous
complaints coming to this depart
ment of violations of this law, we
have asked all inspectors to see that
it is enforced.
Please post in your store.

Commissioner.
