If you are a failure people
tell all about what a bright fell
low you are and it's a shame
that laziness or booze or some
thing holds you down.
If you are successful every
body says that you, must have
had a pull or that what you
were doing was a cinch.
AS long as a fellow has got to
get in bad either way, obviously
he might just as well attain sue
cess.

POOR MANS COURT.
Another Innovation May Be Tried in
Des MOines.

Des Moines, July 14.-Another
innovation may be tried in Des
Moines to lessen the expensiveness
Of quarrels and disputes over labor,
wages and financial matters, and this
would be the establishment of a So
called poor mans court" The in
itiative is to be taken by a lawyer,
E. S. Thayer, who has found that
there is some provision under the law
for such court. 1t would rather
be an informal arbitration body
where persons who are aggrieved
might appear and submit their re-
spective statements to one compel
ent to decide and have a settlement
effected without court or lawyer
fees. The trades and labor assem-
bly, will father the movement and
the city is expected to furnish room
where the court can meet once a
week and dispose Of matters that
may come UP.

AUTO INDEMNITY INSURANCE.
Ten Companies Qualify For Business
i'm Iowa.

Des Moines, July 14.-Just ten
companies have qualified to engage
in auto indemnity insurance in Iowa
under the new Iowa law. A good
deal of fuss was made year or so
ago because of the fact that the
state insurance department refused
TO recognize that under the Iowa law
company might engage in insuring
individuals against the consequences
of their own carelessness in hand
ling automobiles. Later the courts
got into the game and held the same
way. There was a great cutlery ana
it was stated that thirty or forty
companies stood ready to engage in
that kind of insurance. The legisla-
ture was appealed to and granted the
permission to have this kind of in
surance in Iowa. And now just ten
companies have got into the game in
Iowa.

ON WAY TO DUBUQUE.
Party From Iowa University i'm Sur
vey From Lansing to this City.

McGregor, Iowa, July 14.-Prof
A. c. Trowbridge of the Geology de-
partment of the State University, and
a party of S. U. l. students are max
ing a geological survey of strip
of territory five to eight miles wide
along the Mississippi from Lansing
to Dubuque. For the past week they
have been camped on the Heights at
McGregor. Before coming here they
had spent ten days at Lansing and
several days near Waukon Junction.
From here they go to the mouth of
the Turkey and after a few days
there on to Dubuque where they will
pitch camp for a couple of weeks at
Park Life farm.
Their work consists of a study and
mapping of the rock formations and
collection of specimens for the
State Geological Survey to be used
in Iowa high schools. At Waukon
they made an especial study of the
iron mines and at McGregor of the
limestone quarries. OF the famous
cliffs of colored sand a mile south
OF McGregor known as Pictured
Rocks, Prof. Trowbridge said: I'm
doubtedly 1T is the most picturesque
spot in the state of Iowa"
The survey work of the party for
as much of the territory as they can
cover will be the most complete ever
made. Though the government has
most accurately mapped Topographic
cally the territory along the Missis-
sippi in northeastern Iowa, no geo
logical survey has ever been made
other than state survey about fif-
teen years ago.
The young men students with
Prof. Trowbridge are fitting them
selves for government positions in
the U. S. Geological Survey. They
are: A. j. Williams, Albany, Wis.
Geo. Bouyoucas, East Landing
Mich; w. w. Patrick, Iowa City;

CHICAGO. April lS.-More than a
score of moving picture film .produc-
ers and exhibitors called on the mayor
today to protest against the proposed
censorship.
The spokesman told the mayor
they were wen satisfied with the CEN
sorship by a sergeant of police and
they did not want action by board.
He said that 500 moving picture
theaters in Chicago played daily 10
more than 100000 persons and not a
single complaint had been received
from patrons. The mayor said the
proposed censorship would not CON
fine itself to looking over the films
but would censor all matters artistic
or otherwise that might infringe pub
lie morals.
