My Dear Miss Doom

Ny Dear Miss Doom:
l am a girl Is and almost since the
day I began TO understand music my
one great ambition was to become a
singer. My folks always promised me
this education, but things have

nothing for me. l go to business. but
cannot take anything from my salary
for myself. Now what | ask of you
is to help me get aid, or at least q
footing, in order to study vocal train

If l were you l would visit the

teachers and state my case. If your
voice is really too good to neglect,
am sure someone will help you.
Perhaps you can arrange to do some
sort of work in part payment.

Tho meeting at the church was a
good one last Sunday afternoon. The
pastor showed from the incidents of
trials in the life of David how God pre-
pares a man for kingship In this life
and in the life to come.
The interest in sthes Sunday school
was good. The splendid new black
board and the new set of maps of

equipment of the Sunday school room
inspires one to do good work in bible

Reed and Hamilton, both of whom live
in his district Also, Dalton, the candi-
date for marshal in the northern dis
trict is a Clark man and the Wilson
men would prefer to have one OF their
own choosing there in his place.
w. A. Hogan of Anamosa. candidate
for marshal is acceptable to the Will
son men. Also, because Of his
proximity to the third district, he is
thought to be acceptable to Repre-
sentative Connolly, the new demo
cratic member from that district.
Another Combination.
Therefore at the present time, 1t
seems as If the best guess on the fed
eral slate would include:
For marshals-W. A. Hogan OF Ana
mosa and N. F. Reed of Ottumwa.
For district attorneys A. Van
Wagenen Of Sioux City and Claude
Porter of Centerville. %
For collectors-Louis Murphy of
Dubuque and the Davenport selection.
In their support Of Mr.. Van Wage
men, the Wilson men have made 1t
plain that they would regard his re-
lection as a slap at them, and this
they would resent. Murphy Of Dubuque,
a first, last and all the time Wilson
man, has absolutely. no opposition, and
the marshalship is the only ground for
contest.

Gathering ut CiarInda.

Mt. Vernon, April 1.-THE officers
of Crocker's Iowa brigade have issued
the following notice relative to the

To Members of Crocker's Iowa BrE
gade, Greeting: The officers of the
brigade have advised with about six
ty members as to our meeting at Clar-
india, in view of the reunion Of Iowa
soldiers at Des Moines in June.
The sentiment for our regular b.
ennial reunion at Clarinda, September
10-11, 1913, is very greatly in the ma
jority. While cordial to the general
reunion at Des Moines, owing to the
lapse Of years and rapidly thinning
ranks, our comrades feel they should
get together in C1arinda for an old
time family meeting Of the brigade.
The notice is signed by H. H. Rood,
president; c. w. Kepler, recording
secretary, and D. w. Bushnell. cor
responding secretary. Il

'DR.. BANN|STER

DR.. Murdoch Bannister, Of this city,
member of the state board Of control
has rendered his resignation to Gov
ernor Clarke to take effect May !. DR..
Bannister will come to this city to re-
sumo the practice Of medicine.
No Official announcement has been
made of DR.. Bannister's resignation.
Governor Clarke said last night tnat
DR.. Bannister had not resigned. but
that he will resign.
II have rendered the governor my
resignation" DR.. Bannister said. Il
expect to leave about May l." He
said that he was quitting the board
to resume the practice Of medicine and
so that he might be with his family

In referring to the successor Of Dr.
Bannister, the Des Moines Capital
says: z...
Representative W. J.. Dixon Of Sac
county has been selected by Governor

ports. Furthermore, 1t Is declared that
Senator A. M. McColl of Dallas county
has been determined upon by the gov
ernor to succeed Judge G. S. Robinson

governor has practically decided that
Senator McColl is to have the plum.
Both appointments are subject to ap-
prevail by the state senate.
It is said at the state house that Or.
resignation has been in the
hands of the governor for several
days. 1t has been kept quiet because
the governor desired to prevent
for the Office. DR.. Bannister's

PRED term.

nues for the evasion of the law. 1t
forbids sports and games on Decora-
ton day before p. m.
A bill which passed the house yes
terday is intended to effect the tuition
situation in Guthrie county, which
has the only county high school In the
state. It amends the tuition law so
that only where a pupil may live at
home and attend high school, In
Guthrie county, Is the school district
liable for the tuition and then only 81
Ia week.
Militia Subject to Governor.
A bill that is regarded by very many
as one Of the most important, passed
recently, got through to the finish yes
terday. This Is the bill to provide
that company Of the Iowa national
guard may be called out for any duty
only by the governor Of the state.
The present law is that sheriff may
call out the company, If there is one
in his county,, and use It for police
duty, and when this is done the
sheriff is, in fact the commander Of
the company and the county pays the
bill. While no serious complications
have arisen over this anomalous con-
dition Of affairs, military men have
often pointed out how dangerous 1t
was to continue this method. Adjutant
General Logan in his report filed the
first of the year recommended a
change. The legislature has now done
SO. The governor is in full charge Of
all companies and there will be no
conflict of authority. The two houses
have also passed the bill increasing
the pay for armory rent from $500 to
$1,000.
Legislature Notes.
The senate commenced business
yesterday morning on calendar with
121 bills. The present order Is that
the senate must work thse off before
the sitting committee takes charge.
But probably the sifters will get busy
before all the 121 are disposed Of.
The house appropriations commit
tee has reported to the house favor
ably the bill which some time ago
passed the senate increasing the pay
for aid to high schools giving normal
training work The bill will also per
NIT Of designation of number of
other high schools where normal work
may be carried on.
A furry of politics bobbed up in
the house over bill by McHOse to
permit the name Of candidate for
office to appear on the ballot as on
more than one ticket. This Is done
in some cases. But originally the
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1913-04-12

law was made as at present for the
purpose of preventing duplication of
names and longer ballots and finally
to put stop to the fusion" schemes
OF other days. No sooner had the
McHose bill been presented than 1t
was surmised there was a scheme for
permitting candidate to go on more
than one ticket for ballot and back
of It some sort of fusion scheme for
republicans and the progressive party
men. At any rate the discussion Of
the bill has raised some interesting
questions about the future of Iowa
politics.
The senate defeated the bill to
order the board of education to re-
store three professorships In the
homeopathic college at the state uni
versity There was long and tiresome
discussion of the subject and con-
flicting claims made as to what the
real situation Is. Senator Jewell, still
weak from his hospital experience,
carried the day by a few words in OPP
position to the legislature undertake
ing to decide matters Of that kind and
a showing that the homeopathic de-
partment is we'll handled now.
The senate passed the Darrah bill
to require that societies and organ
izations soliciting funds shall make re-
ports to the secretary Of state, after it
was amended so as not to included
churches and schools regularly organ
lied and having accepted standing.
The senate failed to pass the house
bill disqualifying for the Office again
one who has been removed from office
under the state law or who has re-
signed rather than stand trial. An
effort was made to amend it SO that
it would merely disqualify for the
same office again, but the whole bill
was defeated.
The house passed bill late yester-
day requiring that where a railroad
handles as much as 10000 carloads OF
freight a year at station it must
maintain track scales.

practically every candidate in the
southern district was either Clark
or Harmon man before presidential
nomination was finally settled.
Within the last few weeks, the Dav-
export postoffice situation has been
further complicated by the entrance
Of Charles Kindt, theater manager,
who has practically as strong backing
as any of the other candidates. The
Kindt candidacy appears to be gaining
strength daily and his competitors
may have to reckon with him.
Reed Looks Assured.
As for Nick Reed, with the endorse
ment of practically every county
chairman in the state, the, entire
democratic membership of the legisla-
ture and majority of the leading
democrats Of both factions, he is re-
garded as the one certainty besides
Murphy who has no opposition.
that some Of Reeds opponents would
try to get the Iowa senators to block
his confirmation If presented to the
senate.
With a direct senatorial election
only eighteen mOntnS away, Senator
Cummins will be chary of entering
into any squabble between two demo-
cratic factions, for he will need every
democratic vote he can get to come
through in his campaign for re-
election, with some of the standpat
element of his own party admittedly
AGAINST him.
The mere fact of Senator Kenyon's
opposition to Reed might hasten his
confirmation in the senate, where
some Of the older reactionary sena-
tors would take pleasure in overriding
him. But even Kenyons opposition is
doubtful. He has stated often that he
regarded patronage matters as worth
only passing notice and that the demo-
Gratis having won the places, they
should be allowed to parcel them OFF
as they see tit.

PROTEST AGAINST
BUTTON TARIFF

Muscatine, April 11.-At a mass
meeting here attended by more than
q thousand button workers a memor-
ial was addressed to Congressman
Pepper and the Iowa senator's urging
them to oppose the proposed reduc-
ton of the tariff on pearl buttons, de-
claring it would mean the destruction
of the industry in the Mississippi val
ley. A delegation also will be sent to
the national capital In an effort to pre-
vent the threatened blow to tho bust
ness. The bill as reported calls for q
reduction of 100 per cent.
