decided to hold its next annual meet
ing in Keokuk, on February %. Of
this year washington's birthday is
the established day for holding the
annual meeting OF this group.
Keokuk thus early, with her usual
alertness. has already commenced to
prepare for this important conyen-
ton. There was conference of
those interested in the coming meet

Group II includes the banks in six
counties of the first congressional dis
trict, Washington, Louisa. Jefferson.
Henry. Des Moines and Lee. all the
counties in the district except Van
Buren, which belongs to another
group. In these counties there are
eighty-six banks, seyenty-fiye of which
are members OF the association and
eleven are not. There are no indt-
Nidual memberships in the is
association, the membership being held
in the name OF the banks represented.
hence there can be no certain esti-
mate of the number of representa-
tives to be present at any of the
meetings. The condition of the wealth
er and the attractions in a city
where the convention is to be held
controls to a great extent the size OF
attendance. From some banks there

construction in Keokuk. together
with other points Of local and general
interest here, this will likely be the

will be glad to see them, will extend
them the warm hand of greeting and

WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. 24.-.I
wouldn't vote to put any limitation up
on the. term Of office of the president
lof the United States. Let president
serve as long as the people want him"
Such is the comment of Congress-
man Nate Kendall, who is put for
ward by his townsman, the editor OF
the Abba Republican, for the republic
can nominate for United States
senator in the June primaries next
year. upon the fight of Senator Cum
MINIS TO limit the time president can
serve, to one term of six years.
Lese majeste? Dangerously near it.
Time was and that not very long ago,
either. when Nate hardly would have
had the temerity to have commented
adversely upon any movement OF
Senator Cummins nor dreamed of vot-
ing against the senator's slightest
wish. But that time was before the
republican newspapers out in Iowa
began to discuss Mr. Kendall's availi-
bility as candidate for United
States senator to succeed his lone
| time chief.
NO, sir, / wouldn't vote for such a
resolution Mr.. Kendall reiterated.
IT am more interested in preventing
the president from perpetuating him
| self in office by the utilization of fed
I eral patronage. That's the way Roose-
welt nominated Taft and then Taft re-
| nominated himself
The senate by unanimous consent
has agreed that on Thursday January
so. Immediately upon the conclusion
,of the routine morning business, 1t
will proceed to consideration of this
measure. which is a joint resolution
originally introduced February 10,
1872, by Senator Works of California,
and referred to the committee on
Judiciary, out of which it was report
ed May 81, 1912. by Mr. Cummins
with an amendment. The resolution
in its amended form is as follows:
The executive power shall be vest
ed in president of the United States
lof America The term of the office
of president shall be six years. and no
person who has held the office by
Election. or discharged its powers or
duties. or acted as president under
the constitution and laws made in
pursuance thereof shall be eligible to
again hold the office by election.

new state. The legislative act
providing for the new school was
approved March 10, 1908, and the
institution was opened in the fol-
lowing September. During the
first two years the work was car
ried on in rented rooms but in
June, 1905, the trustees purchas-
ed the building and property of
the Red River Valley university.
The school now owns about 25
acres within the city limits for
its campus and grounds. With
its quadrangle bordered by splen-
did buildings and its fine shade
trees and walks the campus
promises to become one Of the
beauty spots of the region.
Purpose Of Institution
The purpose of the institution
as defined by statute is to furnish
such instruction in the pure and
applied sciences, mathematics,
languages, political science and
history as is usually given in
schools of technology below the
Junior year, the chief object being
the training of skilled workmen in
the most practical phases of
applied science"
In accordance with this subject
several we'll organized courses
are offered and the practical pur-
poses of the school are kept con-
stantly in mind, and at the same
time courses coordinate with
those offered in the early years
of a general college course may
be selected if desired.
Within the next year the course
of study will be augmented by
the addition of several new trade
and industrial courses.
Courses in mechanical engineer
ing, steam, electrical and chemi-
cal engineering present a par
ticular appeal to the male stu
dents of the institution, while the
department of domestic art and
science is popular with the young
women; this popularity Icing we'll
warranted by the splendid advan-
tages afforded.
The State School of Science has
not discarded the old-time Gus
tom of teaching social forms by
improved methods, and for the
earnest efforts put forth by the
students in their work, the fac
ulty contributes its efforts in Civ
ing a social remuneration both
useful and enjoyable. The school
affords both local and extension
lecture courses which prove high
ly instructive and enjoyable.
At present the enrolment at
the school is 264, with bright pros
poets for steady increase. The
president of the institution is +.
E. Smith, ABB, LID, Dartmouth
college, Albany Law school, and
he is ably assisted by splendid
staff of instructors and student
assistants.
Railway Advantages
Three great northwest railways

the Great Northern, Northern Pa
cific and the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul, all pass through Wah-
peton, affordin gsplendid trans
portation facilities. The 500 is
within fifteen miles of the city
to the south, where it crosses the
Chicago Milwaukee, and twenty
five miles to the west, where it
crosses the Northern Pacific, max
ing it easy to make connections
|either way. While Wahpeton's
transportations arerdl rdl rdlfl.:
transportation facilities at the
present time are represented
chiefly by these railway lines, if
the plan now on foot material
ICES, the Red river will be made a
|navigable stream, and boats will
be run from Wahpeton to Winni-
peg, affording another means Of
transportation through the Red
River valley.
By reason of these splendid
transportation facilities, vast
territory is made tributary To
the city.

her many splendid home indus
