oskALoosA's FACTORIES.

Census returns seem Slow but the
work involved is greater perhaps
than the average citizen realizes.
Bulletins Governing manufactures in
Iowa for the year 1905 have just
been issued, and in them Oskaloosa
makes very Creditable showing.
This city at that time had AZ manu-
featuring plants, with $615,660 CAPT
tai. The number OF employees were
421, and their wages for that year
amounted to $1SS,115. The AZ factor.
les consumed $321,23S worth of raw
materials and turned out $779,S94
worth of finished products.
While these figures are large and
generally satisfactory, they make a
remarkable showing compared with
the figures of 1900, or five years be.
fore. For instance the number of
factories in Oskaloosa increased from
80 in 1900 to AZ in 1905, a gain Of
20.5 per cent. The capital employed
increased from $4O4,63S to $615,660,
in the same length of time showing
a gain of 52.2 per cent. The average
number of employees jumped from
3l7 to 421, and the wages paid in.
creased from $136,94S to $1SS,115. The
finished products in 1905 we're worth
S779,S94 as compared with S503,914
in 1900, a gain of 54.S per cent.
1t is safe to assume that the growth
in manufactures in Oskaloosa has been
as great in the five years from 1905
to 1910 as it was in the previous five
years, and that now Oskaloosa has
over 500 people regularly employed in
factories with an annual wage
amounting to quarter of a million
dollars. The output of local factories
is undoubtedly worth more than a
million dollars annually. This is sure
ly a splendid showing, but exhibits
only one of the several avenues along
which Oskaloosa is advancing to a
greater and better city.

STAY IN IOWA.

A mute but none the less eloquent
tribute to the healthfulness of Iowa
climate was paid by the last issue of
the Sovereign Visitor, the official
publication of the Woodmen of the
World. Notice was given of assess.
ment No. 25S, due and payable during
the month of March. OF the 365
deaths covered in the assessment,
only four occurred in Iowa. Nearly
one-third, or LOG of the deaths were
reported from Texas. The order has
almost as many members in Iowa as
it has in Texas, and the deaths &C.
CURED in the winter months when the
southern boosters are wont to tell
that the climate is especially des.
tructive in Iowa. The exhibit proves
conclusively that Iowa climate is con.
ducive to Longevity, and the person
who moves away to find a more con-
genial cline is only inviting early
death.

WE ARE ALL PRoGREsslvEs.

Des Moines Capital: Thousands of
republicans have the greatest ambi.
ton to be progressive. Thousands of
them are progressive. But these same
men have hesitated about joining a
faction called progressive, for the
reason that they have felt that there
was considerable number of men
calling themselves progressive who
were only pretenders. In many in
stances men who have been discarded
by the public or men who have had
no standing whatever with the public
have called themselves progressive in
order to advance their political inter.
est. In some states the progressive
faction has simply been a nominating
machine. II has amounted to an or
ganization for getting the Offices. To
great many it has had no other pur-
pose and no other significance. These
are the reasons why President Taft
has found it impossible to call him.

could not adopt everything La Foil
cite adopts, though he wants every.

Gates. So soon as President Taft
would advocate what La Toilette ad-
yocates, La Toilette would dig up
something new TO get away from Taft.
Colonel Roosevelt had to work a long
time to dig up something in the line
of progress which President Taft had
not agreed TO. The colonel wanted
specific doctrine. He wanted some.

welt doctrine. Having this in mind,
Col. Roosevelt originated the idea OF
