man KILLED BY
BY NIGHT TRAIN
NET DEATH NEAR FOUR-MlLE
BRIDGE-BopY FOUND BY
SECTION FOREMAN.

A man, thought to be George W.
Cook of st. Louis, was found shortly
after I o'clock this morning by Section
Foreman w. G. Turner along the Bur-
lington tracks one-half mile east of the
fourmile bridge, with his head cut in
two. He is supposed to have been killed
by night train. The remains were
brought to Ottumwa by a switch en-
CINE at 1915 this morning.
When discovered by Foreman Turner
the body was lying at right angles
with the tracks, with the head resting
on the rail. A fire was smouldering near
the body. The man had taken off his
shoes, leading to. the belief that he had
camped there for the night, using the
rail as a head rest or rolling over in
his sleep so that his head was on the
rail. The wheels of the train did not
strike the body in any other place than
the head. 1t 1t not known which one Of
the night trains struck the man. The
name Of George w. Cook was found on
a card in the coat pocket. He appears
to have been man about forty-f1ve
years old. Coroner A. w. Slaught viii
hold the inquest tomorrow.

! The candidacy Of Mr..
Harry B. Allfree for the re-
publican nomination for con-
gress is most opportune.
From all quarters there
comes the demand for more
business men in public Of
flee. This demand is born of
the urgent necessity for the
introduction of business
methods into governmental
affairs. The day Of spoils and
politics is past. All modern
tendencies are toward the
placing Of our public SER
vice on a business basis.
In the past we have been
governed principally by
lawyers but the problems
now confronting us require
the knowledge and training
which only business men
possess. In recognition of
this fact President Taft has
recently suggested the for
nation Of a national cham
Der Of commerce to be COM
posed of business men. It is
the plan that this body shall
cooperate with and advise
the officers Of the govern
ment with reference to fin
ancial, industrial and COM.
mercial questions. Most Of
our governmental questions
are now of that character.
The tariff question has
become a business PROPOSE
tion pure and simple. The ad-
ministration has been COM
mitted to the policy Of pro-

POLITICAL ADVERTISE
The Business Man In Politics


lection. A definite measure
Of protection has been laid
down. A tariff board has
been established to learn the
facts. We have reached a
scientific basis. The problem
Of actual revision would
seem to be pre-eminently a
business mans problem.
The task of amending the
antitrust law so that bust
ness men may know what
acts are legal and what lille
gal is another task for the
man Of business experience.
Lawyers were able to Law
down the general principles
of the law but the applica-
tion Of the Empirical knowl-
edge Of the business men is
absolutely essential to it's
perfection.
The placing Of all federal
departments on a strictly
modern business basis, the
institution Of the budget
system for the expenditures
Of the government, the
working out Of rules for the
federal regulation of the is-
sue Of corporate stocks and
securities by corporations
doing an interstate business,
the enactment Of a federal
incorporation law and the
reform of the currency are
all problems to the solution
Of which the man Of practi-
cal business experience is i
happily adapted.
The conclusion is newt
able. The business man is the
man of the hour, especially
the business man with legal
training. Mr. Allfree fully
meets the requirements. He
has attained a phenomenal
success in business. He pur-
sued the study Of the law as
a preparation for his bust,
ness career. The increase in
the value Of land, the i'm
provement of farming meth
DDS and the growth Of fac
tories has made the sixth
congressional district one Of
large agricultural and bust
ness interests. The whole
logic of the situation die &
tates the wisdom of sending
Mr.. Allfree to congress.
