DUMPED IN THE RIVER

Stockton, Cal, Dec. 5.-Probably
SO 600 sacks of onions grown in San
Joaquin county will be thrown into the
river this year, largely account of
the present low prices. Local grow
ers and commission men defend this
action by declaring that the yield has
been exceptionally heavy and that
there is an unusual amount Of culls.
Growers are offered from 30 to 60
cents per sack, according to quality.
They state that it costs them 10 cents
sack to dig them and that when
rent and cost Of production is charged
against the crop, they lose money at
90 cents. Only the culls or unmarked
able portion, they declare, is being
thrown overheard
Between 80 and so carloads of po-
tatoes per day are being dug in the
Island district. Tubers are quoted al
from 40 10 so cents per sack, accord
ing to quality. Growers declare that
thousands Of acres of spuds would not
be dug.

of Both Parties Will Get

Will Unite Against Them
UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. ]

Washington, Dec. 5.-That the old
standpat wing of the Republican par
ty would merge with the conservative
element in the Democratic party, this
force to battle with the allied Pro-
gressives Of both old parties for con-
troll of the presidential election in
1916, was the prediction here today
of Congressman A. W. Lafferty (Re-
publcan), Oregon.
81 expect President-elect will prove
another Taft or Cleveland, and that
he will be too conservative" said
Lafferty. "This will result in the
amalgamation Of the progressive ele-
ments of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties before the next general
election.
an my opinion, the Progressive Re-
publicans in congress- will remain
regular for a time, hoping that the
progressive element within the party
will control nominations and shape
platform declarations from now on.
There is no denying the fact that the
independent progressive movement
this year was composed almost exclu-
slvely Of Republicans"
Lafferty declared that at least half
Of the Republican congressman just
elected we're progressives, but he did
not expect them to support Represen-
tative Mann, of Illinois for minority
leader next session. He predicted they
would vote for some recognized Pro-
gressive Republican leader.
"T look for the elimination Of the
standpat wing Of the Republican par
ty" he added, "and division Of the
country between the Progressive ele-
ment of both parties on one side and
the conservative factions on the other
This condition is certain to come be-
fore the 1916 election"

NIGHT WATCHMAN
At COUNTY HOME.
Donnellson Review Says That County
Home Should Have Watchman
to Protect Inmates From
Danger Of Fire.
NO PROTECTION NOW
Buildings Are Thoroughly Sanitary
and Good Supply Of Water Is
to be Had at Lee County
Institution.
NO PROTECTION NOW

Donnellson Review: Through the
courtesty OF Superintendent Robert
Hart We were permitted to go through
the county home last week and note
the inner workings OF that institution.
While We have seen homes that were
more modern as to buildings and ap-
pliances, we do not recall any that
looked more clean and sanitary. They
have good supply OF water there and
they evidently use it to a good ad-
vantage.
The inmates were Just finishing
their supper, and their dessert con-
sisting Of watermelon, was consumed
with evident enjoyment. and there
was plenty of 1t.
While the inmates Of an institution
of this character as rule belong to
a class who have no glittering pros
poets to look forward to, no hope to
spur them on, no incentive to activity:
they have fought the battle Of life
and from physical or financial mis-
fortunes have been defeated in the
struggle still they seemed as cheerful
and contented as you could reasonab-
! " expect to find people in their condi-
ton.
We examined their new water sup
ply system, and in our opinion it was
a good investment In fact if we
were to suggest any Improvement in
matters down there it would be the
addition of night Waterman. There
are large number Of inmates in the
home, some In the incurable wards,
others not able to take care of them
selves in an emergency like a fire
During the day, of course Mr.. Hart
and his assistants would be on hand
to attend to anything Of this nature,
but it is unreasonable to expect maj.
! to work twenty-four hours a day, OF
remain awake that length of time, and
during the night no one is on watch
A fire during the night might easily
cause thousands OF dollars worth OF
damage, to say nothing of the sacri
fee Of life.
| We don't want to add any addition.
al expense to county affairs, but we
! believe that night Waterman for
the county home would be safe
guard against loss of life and proper
ty, and that the cost of same could
easily be made up by economizing in
some other direction. 1t is only q
| question of time, when one Of the
wards contains a few more inmates
that the Iowa State Board of Contro
will compel the county to have might
