mitted to build their new court house
weherever they decide. The T.-R. will
not emulate the 'Keosauqua Republican
and bring any suit to enjoin. But this
newspaper does wish to suggest that
u court house is a public convenience.
that it is an Office building where every
person in the county may have BUSH
ness of one kind or another to transact
and that it ought to be built in the
location accessible With the least trou-
BILE. The more nearly the court house
may b put to the center Of business
activity in Boone the better for all whu
do business with the county offices.
The Marshall county court house
stands In the exact center of the BUSH
ness district the feed sheds and ga
RACES are contiguous to it. To coun-
try and town the central location is
great saving Of time and trouble.
Garner and Concord in Hancock
county afford an example that Boone
county may consider TO advantage.
Concord was the old county seat. Gar
ner grew past 1t when the railroad
came. The situation was very similar
to that in Boone. Concord managed to
retain the county seat many years aft
er 1t should have been moved. In time
i, was moved because 1t belonged in
a convenient location.
A county doesn't build court house
lasts as long as the building. A county
office building is like any other office
building, the more valuable as it is
terests it serves. 1t would be we'll for
Boone county to remembe: that.

THE coLoNEL,s SPEECH.
[Sioux City Journal.]


Colonel Roosevelts brief speech to
the progressive club at Chicago would
seem to dispose OF all the talk and the
various suggestions which have been
blossoming during his absence for a
fusion or union Of the progressive and
republican parties. The colonel osten-
sibly wipes them Off the s!a:s.
The colonel summarily lays it down
as the only possible basis Of union that
the republicans join his progressive
party-that they adopt every prin-
ciple Of the progressives. including the
judicial [recalIl plank" 1t is to be
presumed that those who adhered to the
republican party did so because they
did not approve Of the colJ.sl and his
party. When he summary proclai,ns
that they must now reverse their
convictions as the first step to
union his words naturally imply I'M
conditional surrender.
Nevertheless. however conclusive this

still to be asitated. Indeed. the coloneri

IOWA DOES II BETTER.

Ohio State University has intro
duced an apprentice course In animal
husbandry that includes two years
study at the university ana two years
Of practical work on a stock farm The
student in this coruse spends the first
year at the university; the second on
a stock farm: the third year at the
university again; and the fourth year
on another stock farm. The students
are paid for their work while on the
tam. The plan has interested num-
Der Of the leading stock men OF Ohio
and other states, and they are cooper
atins with the university in carrying
it out.
That is all right as far as 1t goes.
Tho Iowa idea, however, has very
great advantages over 1t. In the first
place. Iowa has real agricultural
school as other states may have no.
ticed. 1t offers probably the finest
chance in the United States to take
animal husbandry and kindred courses
The Iowa youth who hasn't the cash
in hand to carry the course straight
thru goes out and earns it on the best
farms in the union between terms and
the boy whose farmer father IL send
ing thru Anes gets plenty Of chance
to demonstrate what he has learned
by actual application on the home
farm. Moreover. practically every farm
in Iowa is stock farm. corn farm,
a hay fam and gepeal farming farm.
The Iowa plan does not make drovers
alone. it makes all around stockmen
and farmers. In short it creates agri-
c.!tmra!!sts. That's better.
Agriculture. including stock raising,
is speciality. 1t needs a tech school
of its own. In Iowa it has it. Perhaps
that is the reason why Ohio and other
states come looking in Iowa for the
best to be had and why Iowa agricul-
tural graduates have contracts shaken
IN their faces before the ink is dry
on their diplomas. In Iowa we teach
agriculture.
