Idaho states: There is some force

the Monroe Doctrine. Senator
Bristow of Kansas does not believe
in abolishing the Monroe Doctrine,
or the principles upon which it was
founded, and declares such thing
would be the most unpopular thing
that could be proposed in this coun-

The way Mr. Hobson and other

quoting President Wilson and Secre-
tary Bryan to prove their cases in

speeches of these illustrious gen.

Writ, which is the true foundation
for so many faiths and beliefs. 1t
will be remembered that year ago
Mr.. Bryan declared that Governor
Harmon of Ohio and Mr.. Underwood
were reactionary candidates for the
Presidency. At about the same
time he made equally uncompli-

Second Exposition of Products O1
Farm, Orchard and Garden.
PUBLIC PROGRAMS HELD
ON THREE OF THE EVENINGS.
Large Exhibit of the Products of
Winneshiek County Expected
to Compete for Liberal
Premiums Offered.

The second exhibit of the Winnie
shiek County Horticultural Society
will be held all next week, Nov. Sd
to Sth, in the Marsh hall, corner OF
Water and Mechanic streets, and
bids fair to exceed in all respects
the splendid show given by this So
ciety in Decorah two years ago,
when the large number of people
who visited it were amazed at the
splendid display of the products OF
the field, orchard and garden, grown
in Winneshiek county, especially in
the line of fruit. 1t was indeed a
revelation to many, and the officers
of the society are bending every
effort to make the show next week
much better one, with more extern
siye exhibits.
A long list of premiums has
been offered by the merchants OF
the city and members of the socie-
ty, aggregating in value over $500
90, and cash prizes of 10000 will
be given by the society, so that
there will be something worth COM
peting for besides the showing OF
superiority by exhibitors.
On Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday evenings public programs
will be given, when the programs
will include the following:
Monday and Tuesdas.

Whistle if You Want Your Children.

In the Woman's Home Compan-
ion a contributor tells, as follows,
how she calls her children:
Buy little whistle, hang 1t on
hook near the kitchen or dining
room door, and when the children
are wanted for meals, or to do err
rands, blow it, instead OF firing
yourself out calling them. The
sound carries much farther than the
voice and it requires but little effort
to blow. / arrange a different sig
nal for each: One long blast for the
older, two short blasts for the 9TH
err, and three blasts for both of
them. After once using you will
never be without.

chas. Scott ,s Surprised

Living alone out on the prairie, Chas
Scott was dreaming of the time when
Raymer lands would be worth $3.50 per
and the shrek of the locomotive on the
Burlington through line would make
sleep impossible to nervous individuals
and congratulating himself on the vis-
ion, when rat-a-tat tat on his door
aroused him from his reverie, and Geo.
Miller was announced accompanied by
his good wife, George said that he
had come to trim Charlie at cards or
checkers or something of that sort, and
the challenge was at once accepted.
Hardly had the game started when
more raps were heard at the door and
this time the disguise was thrown off
and Mr.. Scott became aware of the
fact that he was the victim of the sur
prise.
About eighteen or twenty were pres.
ent, and the evening was most enjoy
ably spent by those present. Charlie
says that he was terribly treated,
and there is quiver in his voi:e and a
suspicion of moisture in his eye as he
says 50; but then Charles mind may
be upon some other sins.
The date, and We came near forget.
ting to mention it. was last Monday
