ARMY OFFICERS WELL PLEASED
WITH'RESULTs OF MANEUVERS

Echoes OF the big war game, which
came To an end Friday last, are being
heard on all sides, the comment from
various military sources being highly
favorable. II is conceded that the
maneuyers did a world of good for
everyone connected with them, and
that they taught some valuable les
sons in connection, with the defense of
the island by the mobile army, should
the need for such action ever actually
arise. =. ~. ~ -
Undoubtedly the maneuvers were
planned and worked out so as to sup
plement the report Of the board of Of
ficefs which convened here July 81
last to formulate plan for making
Oahu fmpregnable. While consider.
ing the whole broad plan Of Oahu s
defense, including seasoast and posi-
ton batteries, this board. Ii Is be-
lieved, went very thoroughly into the
actual repulsion Of a hostile force that
might actually gain q foothold on Ha,
waiian SOIL. and the way the maneu-
yers worked out no doubt forms a
valuable addenda to the report Of the
defense board. of which Gen. Macomb
was presiding officer. and Lieutenant
Colonel Morrison and Major Blakely,
the other members.
The umpfres who were detailed

ADJUST FREIGHT RATES

Shortly by Commerce

More than little Importance was
attached yesterday to- the conference
held in Keokuk at the Industrial AS
ISOLATION headquarters concerning
Iowa's fight before the interstate COM
merce commission in an effort to Sc
cure the same freight rates that 9TH

Clifford Thorne, Iowa railway COM
missioner. who had charge OF this
states petition to the commerce com
mission, and Judge Henderson of In
dianola, special counsel for Iowa in
the freight rate hearing begun last
spring, and which is still pending, ar
rived in Keokuk yesterday for a con-
ference with the local Industrial Ac-
ISOLATION and others interested in the
commercial interests of this city. The
conference yesterday was attended by
Manager John De Witt, of the Indus
trial Association, Mayor j. F. Elder,
Asaph Buck, L. A. Hamill, A. q. Mat
less, C. NJ. Rich and Ira w. Wills.
The meeting held in Keokuk yester-
day was for the purpose of framing
plans for the continuation and con-
clusion OF the hearing, and had to do
chiefly with the oral argument pre-
scented to the commerce commission
ers next month. From the determine
ed stand taken by Iowa and the argu-
ment presented, it is very probably
the commission will act favorably to
the shipping interests of this state.

UNITED STATES
MARINE BAND
Wants to Come TO keokuk to Give
One of its Famous Matinees
or Evening Per-
formances.
PACIFIC COAST TOUR
1t Would be Great Event fer keokuk
and Draw Literally From
the Surrounding
Points.

Keokuk has chance for the book
ing at the Grand opera house OF a
matinee or an evening entertainment
or both of the great musical organlza-
ton, the United States Marine band.
This famous aggregation OF gifted
musicians will soon start on q grand
concert tour from Washington City
to the Pacific coast and has opened
negotiations with the local manage
ment here for either one or two en-
gagements, a matinee or an evening
performance or both. The guarantees
expected by the manag ement OF the
great band are rather large for city
of the size and wealth of Keokuk, yet
the splendid conditions and the en-
thusiastic spirit of her citizens are
ready for larger undertakings than in
musical people are on the forward
movement and are inspired with a
new spirit. In all lines the people are
ready to cooperate with the people
interested in other lines and there is
nothing reasonable, that Is impossible
to Keokuk which the advancing citi-
zenship take it into its head to ac-
complish. OF course, If they want the
United States Marine band to visit
this city on its tour, 1t will fall upon
them to make the guarantee. 1t would
be far from right, to ask Mr.. Baker
and the management of the Grand
opera house to take all the risk to
crafty the pride and taste OF the peo-
pie of this spirited and brave little
4 city, the envied site of the greatest
water power in the world.
Mr.. Baker has been earnest and en-
ergetic in gratifying this pride and
taste on more than one occasion, in
bringing noted musical organizations
to the tightening of his wallet He
has never complained but has smiled
each circumstance off with a com
placency and a loyalty to Keokuk ane

an eminently commendable way.
