since that McGee's mail has not been
full of letters of congratulation from

ton of the state They are making a
hero out. of Jack MCGEE.
And he deserves lot of credit, too
The convention was divided into war
ring factions, and it looked as If there
might be dissension in the Bull Moose
ranks, no matter which side won.
Then MCGEE got up and made a
rousing nominating speech for Straus,
who was not an avowed candidate.
He carried the convention with him
and brought the factions together.
In his notarial office on Seventy
fourth street McGee told a reporter
how he named Straus.
With a prayer on my lips and an
other In my heart, just after I'd ask
ed the woman delegate next me to
pray for me, too-that's how / walked
to the platform to put Oscar S. Straus
In nomination for the governorship.
Was I nervous?" he demanded.
Certainly not. Though 1t was the

as cool as in the old days when I was
breaking a bad bronco on the plains
or stopping a runaway on the streets
Of New York. When a mans doing
his duty nothing can affect him.
But He Was Peaceful Inside.
THAT day l felt I was truly at
Armageddon and was battling for the
Lord. When / got to the platform
there was roar and enemies were
yelling at me. But in the midst of
that tornado of hostility had within
me the peace of the Lord that passeth
understanding.
Il got a grip on myelf and I made
my speech. l told them what a man
Straus is, for I've known him for
years. I'd often talked with Mr..
Straus on the street, and I know him
to be one of the righteous men of this
world. So I poured out my heart and
told them right and unselishness
should prevail, and when I'd walked
back to my seat knew I'd fought a
good fight"
hopping his forehead with huge
red bandanna, Mr.. MCGEE told how
he had got his name.
"a Sioux chief called Dull Knife
had a trick pony, trained to buck,
that it was said nobody could ride, .
said he. Il got Dull Knife to bring
him out in the center of a bunch of

For Everybody That Reads The Journal
General Description.

This NEW WEBSTERIAN supplies
the popular demand for a RELIABLE
and CONVENIENT dictionary of the
English language. The highest au-
thorities have been consulted and en-
inent specialists have been brought
together to make this book AUTHEN-
TIC and COMPLETE in all respects.
While based upon the ORIGINAL
work of NOAH WEBSTER, it is
brought up to the present in every par
ticular. All pronun Citations are MOD
ERN and are plainly indicated by
phonetic spelling; the definitions are
comprehensive, though concise; the
type is large and clear; each page car
ries running key-word which shows
the first and last word defined on that
particular page, thus avoiding the use
of a cumbersome thumb-index; in
stead Of meaningless text pictures, the
entire work is profusely illustrated
with full-page color plates, monotones,
and duograph charts; following the
dictionary proper is a Reference Lii
brary, which in itself is a complete
treasury Of facts for everyday use.
The worlds greatest authorities on
the English language are to be found
in American universities and colleges,
and from these sources came the
knowledge set forth in the NEW
WEBSTERIAN. The editor in chief,
Prof. Harry Thurston Peck, Phi. D.,
Lift. D., Ii. D., has long been recog-
nized as the foremost photographer
and authority on languages and litera-
ture. Among the editorial contribu-
tors are Albert Scarborough Cook,
Phi. D., LII. D., professor in Yale Uni
versity; John CJRolfe, Phi. D., profess
sor in the University of Pennsylvania
and president of the American Philo-
logical Association; Prof. Theodore w.

Take Over Jones & Hovey Properties
Within Very Few Weeks.

100000 utilities corporation, or
yanized under the laws of Iowa for the
purpose of taking over all of the BOWS
Smith, Reed, ct al, properties, was
authorized at a special meeting OF the
shareholders of the Cedar Rapids and
Iowa City Railway Company, held in
Cedar Rapids Monday.
The vote was unanimous and the re-
orsa nization was done under the d.
rection of the Harris Trust and Saw
ings Company, Of Chicago, which has
contracted to take all Of the bonds.
Mr., J. F. Reed said to the Times Re
publican that the reorganization hao
caused some delay, but that they would
now be able to take over the Jones q
Hovey properties in MaHhalltoWn IN
a very few weeks. When asked II II

would be long before that time
Much Detail to Look After.
However. the amount Of detail in
volved in the financing Of so large an
enterprise is enormous. The inter-
urban from Cedar Rapids to Iowa CITY,
the one now being graded from cedar
RAPIDS to Mount Vernon, the electric
plant at Cedar Rapids. the one at Mar

n1ant at Tama and Toledo, the electric
plants at Boone and Perry. and al! the
utilities at Mawhalltown, are to be
taken over and every one OF them has
bonds or mort cages of its own which
must be gathered up.
For instance, the bonds on the Mar
shalltown property are not due unit
July |. 1918, and they are scattered
among many holders. If they can't be
purchased or refunded money will have
to be deposited to protect them. A
like situation exists at Boone, Perry,

The purpose in reorganizing is to
have one bond issue on the market

SOME PERFECT ROADS.
Roads to EIdora, Tama, leGrand, Gill
man and Laurel Are Fine.

It has been reported to the T.-R. that
the Trancontinental route from Mar
shallrown to Tama is in almost perfect
condition. Every mile of it has been
we'll dragged and graded, and none Of
the bridges and culVerts are standing
up above the roadway.
The road to Gilman is also in
perfect condition, we'll dragged and
graded, with all bridges and culverts
properly filed at the approaches,
A trip over the road from MARSHALL
town to Laurel found an excellent road
ali Of the way, in spite Of the neglect
to drag between Marshalltown and the
Milwaukee railway, but near Laurel
there are .wo small bridges that need
attention at the approaches very badly.
Another report on the North Third
avenue road. or st. Paul to St. Louis
air line. all the way to Steamboat Rock,
gives this road to be in most excellent
condition.
On the Transcontinental route ives.
the roadway Is smooth enough but the
bridges and culverts are much in need
of filing. The bridge over Linn creek
just west Of the G.. & NV. crossing is
in bad shape and the bridge just south
of the c. & NV. crossing at Lamoille
is also badly in need Of filling.
The supervisors of Tana county have
been doing some excellent work with
their automobile tax money in cutting
down the big hill just east of LeGrand
on the Transcontinental route. This
rock cut and the sand farther east,
near Chelsea, were the two worst spots
between Marshalltown and Chicago.
The work on Anvil Hill has been we'll
done. If the supervisors Of Marshall
county would now take the automobile
tax money and do as good piece Of
work on the Transcontinental road
from Marshalltown to State Center as
they have done in grading South Center
street there would be public rejoicing
within and without the county. Why
not put up $4,000 or $500 Of county
money, raise public subscription. and
do a perfect piece Of road grading all
the WY to the Story county line?
The ridge road from Toledo to Mon
tour is being graded and should be
avoided until finished.
Marietta township now has thirty
eight concrete culverts and two years
more under the present policy will see
every culvert in that township repla &c !
with permanent concrete structure.
For the next 100 years Marietta town
ship can spend all of her bridge an;
perfect road grades and draining.
