makes this herd one of the strong ones
of the state, and its breeding
largely sought after by other breeders.

''BeSeda.''


During a recent visit to Protivin,
through the courtesy of Thos. Chyle
the writer was shown through their
new hall, ''Beseda,'' which is far
ahead of anything Cresco has had for
years in the way of an assembly hall.
The building is 4OxS5 on the ground,
of cement blocks, built on terraced
lot, and with high basement used as
a ..dining hall, with a we'll equipped
kitchen, cupboards and ladies toilet
rooms. The floor of the hall is 4Ox65
with fine stage and dressing rooms
at the rear end. A large gallery over
the entrance to the hall provides con-
siderable additional seating capacity.
Over $3.50 has already been expended
for scenery, with which the stage is
fully equipped. Some of the curtains
are especially fine, depicting actual
scenes and landscapes in Bohemia.
One of them is of considerable interest
and full of local sentiment as it is a
reproduction of part of the town of
Protivin, in Bohemia, from which Mrs.
Frank Chyle and perhaps others of the
village residents came and in memory
of which their town in their adopted
country was named. The building cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000 and mas
already proved itself paying propo-
sition.

Richard Wentworth shop on Market
street. They expect to do but small
business this fall, simply enough to
get their product introduced, but will
provide tor their more extensive manu-
facture next year if the demand for
the cribs meet their expectations.
The claims of superiority for the new
crib, is that their first cost is all the
expense there is for them, as they
never burn, rot, or rust and need no
paint, and can be put together at ones
leisure without the aid of skilled
mechanic.
The cribs are made in foot sections,

New Paper at Mason City.

The Democrats of Mason City and
Cerro Gordo county are to have news
paper devoted to their interests and to
the interests of the democratic candi-
dates. 1t will be edited by A. B. Hun
kins, newspaper man of wide expert
ence, formerly publisher of the Herald
at Austin, MINI. 1t will be weekly,
published Saturdays, and with guar
anteed circulation of 5000. The west
end of the 4th Congressional district
has not single democratic paper and
the result is apparent in the large re-
publican majorities of Worth, Floyd,
Mitchell, and Cerro Gordo counties, and
we believe that the new paper will
prove of immediate value to the demo-
cratic party in its territory.
Where there are democratic papers
in the district, there are democratic
counties and democratic county offic-
ials, and that there are but fourteen
democratic pape RS in the whole district
against fifty republican papers and
nearly as many SO called ''independ-
ent" but really republican papers, is
the chief reason that the 4th district is
so overwhelmingly republican. Demo-
Gratis everywhere owe their support to
their party papers and we hope that
Mason City democrats will properly
appreciate and support their. new paper

Republicans Want Mccook.

John McCook of Cresco, one of the
ablest attorneys of the district, will be
the democratic nominee for Judge
without much question. His ability
and integrity are unquestioned, and fit
ness rather than political affiliation
should be the voters guide in the Sc
lection of judge. --Postville Review.
Democrats are irresistible this year
from Governor Wilson down and as a
consequence Republicans keep fiocking
to their support. One of the latest is
the dyed-in wool Decorah Republi-
can which assures Hon. John McCook
of Cresco, its good will and vote if he
becomes the Democratic nominee for
district judge.-Waukon Democrat.
