country in the interest Of opium. But
it has often been stated that trade has no
religion. but is defiant of all religions,
and that is a saying that is being fully
proved in this contention for the open
ing Of markets for the disposition Of
the opium grown in India, a trade which
is in British hands.

Famous Case Dismissed.

Montezuma, Feb. 12.--It is believed
here that MonteZuma has heard the
last of the fifty-two indictments
brought against as many merchants
here on the charge of gambling. Judge
Talbot dismissed the indictments fol.
lowing the failure of Assistant Attor-
.ney General Sampson to secure the
conviction Of r. J. Smith, the first OF
the defendants to be brought to trial.
The indictments grew out of the CIV
ing away by the business men OF
Montezuma to their customers of an
automobile. Smith got the machine
by choice of the people to whom had
been given shares in the machine.
The plan for disposal of the machine
was framed up by Judge w. r. Lewis,
we'll known in Iowa as an attorney of
extraordinary ability. When the
case came to trial it was discovered
that the state could not deliver the
goods and Judge Talbot entered dis
missal of all the cases for lack of evil
dence.

Des Moines, It,, Feb. 12.-That the

comes before us in a peculiar and suss
'picious light. Governor Carroll re-
ported the commission to make a re-
port. This body did so and then in
his biennial message he fails to en-
dorse 1t. The same is true of the
Legislative Workingmen's compensa-
ton commission. That committee
did not agree. There were two re-
ports and Governor Carroll in his mes
sage criticised that report. Now
these commissions had plenty of time
and money to study these questions
for two years. IL they could not agree
among themselves or with the execu-
Tive who appointed them, how can it
be expected that we members who
have not made a special study of
those matters shall be able in a few
weeks to write upon he statute books

met, Iowa would still go on in pros
perity. / do not believe in doing
things half way. When we enact a

The workingmen' compensation

already been introduced. There are
many affecting only localities and in

ready evidence of trading. Those
