Let the People Rule"

Some unkind person has dug up a
book by Col. Roosevelt in which he
remarks: 'In our cities the mlsgov-

the rich. but TO the low standard OF
honesty and morality among our citi-

should be concentrated in the hands
OF very few men. who would be so
conspicuous that no citizen could
help knowing all about them and the
elections should not come too fire.

Doctor Neri Given High Honors by

ROME, September 2S.--The cross
and title of Commentators of the Or
der of Saint Sylvester, one Of the high
honors of the Catholic church, has re-
Gently been conferred by Pope Plus
on DR.. Piestro Neri of Rome for rath-
er peculiar services, namely, the res
toration OF the body of saint. So
skillfu was the work done by DR..
Neri, that at its conclusion, the body,
which was liiat of Saint Rcsalina,
was examined by the members of the
sacred congregation of rites, compos-
ed of some Of the highest cardinals
and dignitaries of the Catholic church
and the seal Of approval of the con-
gregation placed upon it.
Saint Rosalina was member of
the Certosian order of nuns, and
came from distinguished family in
Villeneuve, France, being born in
1858 and dying in 1929. AS has been
the case with great number Of the
saints cannonized by the Catholic
church, the body remained in a re-
markable state OF preservation, but
after some 500 years, during which
time it had been visited by millions,
it began to show signs of decay, and
eventually was removed from public
view.
Shortly after being elevated to the
papacy Pope Plus took up the ques-
ton of the possible restoration and
preservation of the body. The mat
ter was laid before a number Of the
most famous French scientists but
none of them had sufficient conf
dence in the ultimate success of the
work to undertake it. Finally, how.
ever, the attention Of Pope Plus was
attracted to the work of Dr. Neri, who
for number of years had been max

back for many centuries, and which

County.
OFFERS TO GIVE BOND

Sheriff John j. Crimmins arrested
Frank ]. Malone, Friday night on a
charge Of white slavery, preferred by
the officials In Louisa county after he
had attempted the abduction of If
teen year old Wapello girl Malone is
said to be an old offender and will
no doubt be made to serve sentence
for his crime.
{ Malone was apprehended by the To-
cal official Friday night through the
woman who was travelling with him
as his wife. Sheriff Crimmins doubts
the relationship of the two.
Nearly two weeks ago Mr.. Grim
minis received word from the louisa
county officials asking him to watch
out for Malone, who was travelling
through the country with the Malone
Parker show and while at the West
Point fair Friday, he saw the show
but could not find Malone. He was
able, however, to see Malone's wife
and as she wore a peculiarly striped
jacket, she was easily identified by
the officer. The night she came to
Keokuk on the same train that car
ried Mr.. Crimmins and was watched
by the officer during the time she was
in the city.
About ten o'clock she met Malone
on Sixth street and when they were
approached by Crimmins, feigned
great surprise that they should be
subjected to such indignity as to be
locked up.
Sheriff Crimmins Immediately mott
fed the Louisa county officer and the
sheriff of that county came after his
prisoner on the midnight train. He
left on the early morning train for
his home accompanied by Malone and
his wife. When he was arrested, Ma
lone asked to be allowed to send fol
John Wheatley, whom he said woult
give a $4,000 bond, for him. but Mr.
Crimmins refused, and locked his
prisoner up to await the Louisa coun
/ ty officials.

TEN THINGS TO DO THIS MONTH

1. Get the land ready for the crops.
Pillow well; harrow and re-harrow I'M
til a perfect seed-bed is obtained. Re-
member that good preparation is half
the battle.
2. Use good seed. 1t will be cheap
er to pay a good price for good seed
than to plant those of poor quality.
Then arrange some seed plats and
grow your own seed.
3. Get the tools out some rainy
day and see that they are in condition
to do good work Look after the plant
ers especially. You can't afford to
have poor stand from careless plant
ing.
A. Take special care of the horses.
See that the harness does not rub and
and that the collars fit. Groom well
and rub their shoulders three or four
times day.
S. Study the feeding Of the brood
SOW; fix up the narrowing pens; when
the pigs come give them careful at
tention and keep them growing.
6. Make start with pure bred poul-
try. Fix up houses and runways. Rid
the premises of lice.
Z. Put the spray pump to work in
the orchard. Keep up the garden
planting and cultivation.
8. Paint the house. Buy a lawn
mower and start 1t running. White
wash fences and outbuildings.
Q. Order needed seed of cowpeas,
soy beans, etc. Arrange to grow your
own hay this year and to get the
nitrogsa ron need from the afr.
