Senatorial Elections in Iowa.

The most recent volume published
by the State Historical society of
Iowa is History of Senatorial Elec-
lions in Iowa." written by DR.. Dan
Ebert Clark. The book contains a
narrative of the election of all the
United States senators from Iowa
from the long deadlock of 1S46-1S4S to
the election of William S. Kenyon
after the deadlock of 1911. In the
preface of the book the author says:
"Twenty-five times during the his
tory of Iowa has the general assemb-
~ been called upon to select men to
represent the commonwealth in the
senate of the United States; and on
three occasions the governor has
made appointments. two of which
were later ratified by the legislature.
Fifteen men have been recipients of
this highest gift within the power Of
TT state. Two of them resigned be-
fore the expiration of their terms in
order to accept positions in the
presidents cabinet; death removed
three in the midst of their duties;
still others remained for two or three
successive terms, While one occupied
4 seat in the upper house of congress
sor period of rhirty-ffve years."

There was young man. he said,

power, the essential grip. of tragedy.

add tragic string TO my lyreT
To be sure, the seer replied. And
he produced crystal vial of rosy. effer-
vescing liquid. Drink this, and tragedy

THE young man swallowed the liquid.

work was depressing-it lacked. they said.

MUSINGS OF A
GENTLE CYNic

THE truth OF the saving that time Is
money seems to he borne out by the
way people squaEder IL.
Whipping a boy To make him go to
Sunday school Is good bit like beating
the devil around the stump.
You can place man on pedestal,
but you can't Keep him there.
1t is very often the juice of the grape
that makes a fellow feel seedy.
The girl with wink often demonstrates
that actions speak louder than words.
Marriage is a lottery in. which some
people are never satisfied till they take
three or four chances.
When a man trades a bank account for
experience. would you say that fair ex-
change was no robbery?
The chronic borrower is always looking
for an encore.
It's the love of other peoples money
that is the root of all evil. !.
Lots of us think twice before we speak,
only to say something worse.
The worst thing about an obstacle II
that II is always in the way.
Few people are too lazy to work ON the
sympathy OF their friends.
Many a man carries things with high
hand who never played poker In his life.
Great minds flow in the same channel.
But then, so do canal boats.
At the same time lots Of men are liars
who never so fishing

approach by the highway to any one OF
these fine old cities! Compare II with
the railways approach through the back
gardens of the suburbs! The writer had
seen the spire of Salisbury cathedral sink
slowly behind him into the plain. and
now from afar he behed the gray tower
of Dorchester's fine old church rising
from the vale of smoke which represent
ed the town 1t eli. It was when he drew
still nearer that he espied In the distance
a tall. monumental-loOking erection ap-
parently just beyond the town.
He had been looking anxiously out for
true Dorset peasant, and now he met
one-a withered old man cutting the
hedge-and he asked him what was the
monument that he could sec.
"That?" he said. "Oh. that be the
Hardy tower. master"
..The Hardy tower?' he echoed. for he
had heard that the world-famed novelist
was scarcely appreciated. like. all proph-
cts, in his own country. What Hardy"
IT don't know, master, but the writing

industry is the patentee of a device for
the automatic filling of all those seed
packets which members of Congress frank
to their constituents throughout the coun-
try. The use of this machine makes it
possible for the government to secure
competitive bids for putting up seeds.
The inventors and owners of other prac-
ticable machines state that it is worth
$1.32 thousand packets to do this work.
This machine enables the government to
save at least 30 cents per thousand on
the packets. As approximately 65,C00, DtAl
packets are filled annually. the Tracy
patent secures a saving of more than
$4,000 a year in the filling of packets
alone.
Probably the most complicated machine
that has ever been invented by govern
ment emplOye is one in use at the coast
and geodetic survey. and upon which may
be automatically figured the time and de-
gree of maximum and minimum tides at
any time or place. a very important
phase Of the work of the coast and
geodetic survey is the forecasting of tides
and the making of charts recording those
forecasts. The computation of the time
of high tide or low ebo for given place
is a very complicated process. and there
are nineteen different elements entering
into the calculation. This tide-predicting
machine takes all those elements into
consideration and. with a single operator.
automatically gives the answer. To pro-
duce the same result with the same de-
gree of accuracy without the use of the
machine woiIld require thirty computers
working throughout the year. On q sal
airy basis of 81 900 each. there would be
expended each year in hiring these COM
puters a total OF $4,000. William Farrell
was an smploye of the coast and geo.
detic survey when, thirty Years ago, he
devised this complicated machine. He
freely gave his invention to the govern
ment and never in any way profited from
it. Upon this machine the tide forecasts
have been calculated since 1883.

ter?" But the old man didn't know.
Very likely 1t was" he said. but he'd
never heard Of mo such gentleman"
A quarter Of an hour later he was rid
ing over the cobbled streets OF the most
perfect specimen Of an old English mar
ket town which 1t has been his good lot
to see.
Dorchester, like all the country around
it, is utterly unspoiled. The very farm
houses which Hardy has written about
stand with almost their Identical occu-
pants out on the hills. and In the city
there are the same rambling streets and
picturesque courtyards which we asso-
ciate with "Casterbridge. And every
where. too, one hears the rich Dorset &C.
cent. There is no electric tram or hg Z
to remind one that these are fast-moving
times: the old walls echo to ones foot
steps as il this were very sleepy worlt,
indeed. The visitor was anxious to settle
the mystery of that tower on the downs,
and made inquiries accordingly.
The stationery storekeeper laughed at
the question Its q monument" he told
me. "erected nearly p hundred years ago

arms Nelson died ON board the Victory;

may contain is based upon the posi-
bility under given conditions Of boil
ing it of and condensing 1t and in
this way getting its amount. The
given sample Of grain is carefully
weighed. Then it is placed in oil that
has boiling point a great deal higher
than that Of water. 1t is heated to q
temperature where the water in the
grain goes of in vapor. This vapor is
recondensed and carefully weighed. Its
weight in proportion to the grain from
which it came is the percentage OF
moisture in the given grain. With DR.,
DuveIs device the test may be made
in very few minutes. The same
principle under another patent is APP
piled to test OF the amount OF water
in butter.
A rather recent patent taken out by
a government scientist is that on wa
terproof cement recently issued to
Logan w. Page. director~of the office
Of good roads in the department OF
agriculture. Mr.. Pages waterproof
cement is made by mixing oil with the
cements OF ordinary varieties.
The principle also applies to mortars
and concretes. 1t produces a cement that,
In the first place, will hold water and
may be used for such structures as water
ranks. Concretes that are otherwise
easily penetrated by water become water
proof when oil is mixed with them. \
lining of waterproof cement of concrete
will make an otherwise porous structure
watertight Floors built of this waterproof
material never become damp. When
water is thrown upon them it rolls up
into little globules, but never vets the
floor. This makes the material very
valuable for the building of basement
floors or foundations for houses. 1t is
also of great structural value in such
monster Undertakings as the building of
locks and dams and such great works
as the Panama canal. So important is it
in the large Industries that its inventor
might have made himself wealthy through
it, but instead he gave the invention
clearly to the public.
