worth more in the markets than eggs
mixed in color and size, The same
principle holds true when any con-
siderable quantity of market poultry
Is to be disposed of. Then, too, the
farmer with a good flock of pure bred
birds can always sell eggs for hatch
ing at considerable increase over the
ordinary market price for table eggs,
and in the fall many of the surplus
cockerels can be sold to good advant
age for breeders.

The first one or two filters of eggs

WHOSE TECHHNIcALITY?
[Grundy Republican,

tNIuNOS fSSpupllcdI1
There is much stirring in Waterloo
these days as the result of Judge Dun
ham invalidating the saloon petition
On the grounds that the names on the
petition did not conform With those on
the poll list. We can not see the sense
in getting so stirred UP over mere
technicality. especially since it is mere
~ case OF the other fellows OK be-
ing gored. Ever since the beginning OF
law the forces of decency opposed TO
saloons. brothels. and vice Of every
form. have had to stand back and see
their wishes turned down on some
mere technical point and then have
been compelled to listen TO some half
witted braggarts proclaImng how
technlcaiity was the law and that jus
tice CD always triulnphcd Many of
our laws have been mace for just that
purpose and technicalties have long
, been applied to sustain the forces of
evil because those forces have the pc
cular ability of presenting an unbrok-
en- front when they want something.
But now the tide has turned and the
men who have hidden behind techni-
calities in the law are crying unto high
I heaven-and several other places-that
the Will of the ma iorfty is being
thWarted. Oh. Law. Thou art q great
game along with politics.

+. 6. Dunn, our late candidate Tor
governor. SAYS that some Iowa demo-
crat tried to make him wear brass
collar III the last campaign and be-
cause he refused to put on the collar
he was defeated. The Manson Demo
crat has openly demanded Of Mr..
Dunn that he name the democrat VINO
tried TO collar him. He should 90 it
and if he can't do il he should admit
that he vas mistaken Mr.. Dunn made
good candidate and he conducted
himself Well during the campaign. 1t
was after the votes We're counted that
he went wrong. This fact can easily
lead one TO the conclusion that Mr..
Dunn was controlled by democratic or
gan!zation influence during the cam
paign and that it Was good for him
and mat as soon as he freed himself
from this influence he stumbled from
one political blunder to another. Like
Jerry Sullivan and Claude Porter be-
fore him he should have taken his de-
feat philosophically and his party
would have been ready and willing 10
have conferred future honors upon
him. a candidate for any office who
once SHOWS himself 10 be a poor loser

The supreme court, however, held to
the contempt idea discharging the pub

ion the night before the trial took place.
This, the supreme court guessed was
