REED MADE GOOD
I'M PRESSION
STATE CHAIRMAN OF DEMOCRAT.
IS PARTY ADDRESSED CON-
vENTioN AT BURLINGTON

When the committee on delegates
We're selecting the Champ Clark in
structed representatives from Des
Moines County to the democratic
state convention Saturday at Burlin8-
ton N. f. Reed of OttumwR, state
chairman of the>party was found in
the convention hall. He was called on
TO make a speech. The Burlington
Hawkeye in referring to the remarks
Of Mr.. Reer said
When the committee retired to copy
the typewriter list, which Is usually
prepared for such occasion, the chair
announced that the state chairman,
N. +. Reed, was in the house
Thereupon the convention desired to
hear from Mr.. Reed, and there were
frequent calls for Reed" Reed.
Reed" The gentleman ultimately
stepped forevard, announced that he
was not a spellbinder or an office
ecker, having never been candidate
for any office, and would probably re-
main worker for democracy He had
been passing through the city and
could not resist the temptation to stay
over. Mr.. Reed handed the assemblage
a few handsome bouquets and con-
tinued: AS 1t looks to me this is
year Of success and victory. It hardly
looks possible that we should be de-
Heated now. The democratic principles
will prevail, no matter who the candi-
date may be-" The speaker was glad
that the state convention was coming
here. It belonged here, and he expect
ed to be here. He hoped that this
state convention would send delegates
to Baltimore, who would vote for a
candidate who would be democratic
president. The speaker had no prefer
ences, and it was not his place to
specialize" on candidates, but he
could not resist the temptation to ex-
press the hope that the man next to
the president should not be overlook
ed. Mr.. Reed made a neat stump
speech for Champ Clark, whom Iowa
ought to support because he is a
neighbor and a good democrat. There
would be no need of apologizing for
him, after he had gone to the white
house. OF course, the speaker had not
a word to say against other democratic
candidates, who are all Of them honor.
able men, but we are out here on the
other side of the Mississippi river
ought to stick together" Mr.. Reed
was In good voice and made an adj
dress that was more pleasing than
some that have been made in the same
hall by men who did not deny the soft
impeachment that they were orators
of no mean caliber. Burlington will
be glad to hear Mr.. Reed again early
and often.

MAJOR HAMIL TON
REVIEWS YEARS
TOLD MEN AT Y. NC. A. SUNDAY
OF, TEMPERANCE CONDITIONS
IN QUARTER CENTURY

Major A. H. Hamilton delivered an
interesting talk on the civic condi-
tons of the city during the past
twenty-five years, to fair audience
of men at the Y. M. C. A. auditorium
Sunday afternoon. Following temper
ance lines of thought with thorough
ness Mr.. Hamilton recounted the many
steps of legal and moral liquor bust
ness in Ottumwa, as well as Iowa. His
many years as publisher Of the
Courier, where he became thoroughly
acquainted with every issue that
arose, enabled him to deliver his dis
course with conciseness. Major Hamil-
ton began with the year when the
constitution amendment was agitated,
followed it's course until the time of
the prohibitory law and then took up
each succeeding temperance question
of the subsequent years, finally reach
ing the present day. His talk was APP
preciated by all. The male chorus
sang.

DUNN'S WEEKLY .
REVIEW OF TRADE

Chicago, March 11.-R. G. Dun's Re-
view for last week says: .
An increased movement Of trade re-
fleets the near approach Of spring, and
what Is Of greater significance, the
admirable conditions prevailing in the
winter wheat sections produce a more
buoyant feeling in western trade cir
cles, and the whole business situation
is benefited thereby. This is all the
better because Of unsettled influences
prevailing in many parts of the world.
In Mexico and China, in Enpland where
a menacing coal strike produces tenn
, porary trade ,paralysis and to a much
less degree in the United States where
an important election is pending. These
conditions tend to unsettle business
confidence, so that it is all the more
significant that a large trade movement
Is in progress in this country, with
plain signs Of expansion, even though
without any marked speculative dis
| counting of the future.
Liabilities of commercial failures re-
ported for February amount to $21,-
477,923. of which s11,245,116 were in
manufacturing, $S,972,306 in trading
and $1,440,501 in other commercial
Hines. Failures this week numbered 344
in the United States against 252 last
year, and "a in Canada compared With
| 81 a year ago.
