outrageous steal by the cold storage
combine of food products. His figures
are as follows: Meats 1,500,00O,0OO;
poultry, 100000; eggs, 100000. The

Bill of Rights.

The bill of rights is a declaration
Of fundamental principles deemed ba-
sic to the Constitution itself and Dor
rowed from the English bill of rights
OF 1859. When the Constitution of the
United States was framed and sub
mitted to the people it did not have
bill of rights and it was SO harshly
criticized on this account that Its
friends promised to incorporate or add
such declaration, and the first ten
amendments TO the Constitution.
made after the main instrument was
adopted, were in fulfillment of this
promise. All the State Constitutions
now have bills of rights, practically
Identical with one another.

Land Values and Taxes.

The valuation of farming lands in
Jefferson and Dodge counties has been
fixed by the state tax commissioner as
follows: jefferson county $101 per
acre and Dodge s110. The increase in
five years has been as follows: Jeffer-
son, s13; Dodge, $18. The increase in
ten years has been as follows: Jeffer-
son, 500; Dodge, s31. The increase, no
doubt has been to augment the taxes to
be squandered by extravaganza in
state expenditures

Drunks in a Dry City

Mason City, Iowa:-The annual re-
port Of the chief of police for the As
cal year ending April LIT has just
been filed. The report shows that
during the year just closed 59S ar
rests for drunkenness were made.
The city has population of $1,000
and has not had open saloons for
twenty-five years. Until Ottumwa
and Waterloo went dry" short time
ago it was Mason City's boasts that
it was the largest dry" town in
Iowa. Now that the record Of the
chief Of police has been made public.
its citizens can hardly claim that Ma
son City is dry" in fact. The num-
Der of per capita arrests for drunken
ness in Mason City will equal that of
any other city in the state. It has
long been an open secret that boot
logging in Mason City was very pre-
valen,, but until the figures were
given out, few realized that it would
reach the proportions that 1t has.
The regulated saloon would be much
preferable to the conditions that exist
In Mason City at the presest time.

Second-That nine hour day be

tual service by the employee to the
employer at the same scale OF wages
now paid.
Third-That no discrimination be
made against any miner and that, II
he elects, he may be permitted to
purchase the supplies for the main
tenance Of his family wherever IT
suits him best.
Fourth-That the operators grant
semi-monthly pay
It will be my pleasure to use all
