The effectiveness Of the advertising
censorship which the Keokuk Retail

last Saturday. A man from Quincy
arrived here with a proposition for
advertisements on the stiff cardboard
which iaundries place in shirts to
keep them from getting mussed after
being Numbered. The third person to
be solicited was member of the Re
taiIers league, and the solicitor was
referred to the secretary, James NJ.
fulton, who referred the matter to the
secret committee on advertising.
The committee promptly turned
down the scheme and authorized the
secretary to so notify the solicitor.
This done, and names Of the members
OF the Retailers league were furnished
the solicitor. It Is understood that he
canvassed those who are not mem

The question as to who is eligible

COUNTY AUDITORS
TO GET BALLOTS
Secretary Of State Expects TO Ship
Certified Copy on Wednes
day.

w. S. Allen. secretary OF state. will
on Wednesday send to the county
auditors OF the state certified copies
of the ballot for the general election
November 8. The list OF candidates
and form OF ballot viii be sent out
early, so that each official will have
ample time to prepare for the cleo,
ton.
There have been several changes
in the placing OF the party tickets
this year. The order in which the
parties go on the ballot follows: Re-
publican. democratic. progressive, So
cialist. prohibition, independent and
nonpsrtiean. Last year the arrange
ment was: Republican. democratic.
prohibitionist. socialist and progress
sive.
The voter who wishes to exercise
his full voting privilege will therefore
not only mark his party ticket accord
ing to his preference but he will go
over to the nonpartisan column and
there mark his choice Of candidates
for Judges said Secretary Allen.
THE press OF the state will be doing
the people an important and valuable
service by calling attention to the
change In the law. Every change
made in the manner OF voting to
which the electors have become ac-
customed, no matter how simple, is
quite sure at first TO cause confusion
and this change, even at the best, Is
likely to result in the failure of many
to record their votes on the judicial
ticket
Although the list Of candidates will
be certified out this week. candidates
who wish to withdraw and have their
names cancelled, may do 30 as late as
eight days before the election. In
case any state candidates decide not
to make the race at the last minute
each county oncer viii be notified
by the secretary OF state.

Fees for ItInerants.
At the meeting tomorrow night.
James M. Fulton, secretary OF the
league will report on the license fees
which are being charged In other
cities for peddlers and itinerant mer-
chants. 1t is possible that the league
may take some action, and petition
the city council for an ordinance reg
ulating this license fee, as other
cities near at hand have already.
Peoria charges $50 per Gay for the
itinerant merchant, thus effectively
protecting her home merchants. Ped
dlers pay s25 per year. Clinton
charges the tttnerants and peddlers all
the way from y per day to $50 per
year. Quincy charges $500 per year,
and less according to ciassfficattons
The merchants have already been
asked to lend their support to meas

provide for a tax on mail order

SYMPHONY CONCERT
TO Be HELD MAY e

Rehearsals are progressing satisfac-
torily for the concert to be given at the
Pinney theater May 2S, by the Sym
phony orchestra A full rehearsal of
the entire orchestra will be held on
Monday evening at the high school au-
ditorium, with another one Thursday
evening of the same week. Director G.
o. Breach expresses himself as well
satisfied with the results of the ardu-
GUS training and predicts the best con-
cert the orchestra has ever given A
competent critic who heard the last
concert Of the Saft Lake Philharmonic
orchestra, stated that the first violin
section of the Boise Symphony or
chestra was far ahead Of their Salt
Lake brethren, which Is saying q great
deal for our local talent, when Salt
Lake is considered the most musical
city in the entire west.
The ladies' auxiliary will meet the
Tuesday afternoon before the concert.
when Director Breach, assisted by some
members of the orchestra, will explain
the different numbers to be presented,
and will give lecture on symphony
work in the United States. This Is ex-
pected to prove very interesting and
will give much added pleasure to the
concert itself
Mrs. Arthur Mack and Frederic
Fleming Beal are to be the soloists,
both being we'll known local artists,
whose reputation for sincere and pains
taking work on the concert platform Is
well known.
It 10 hoped that tho citizens will pat
ronize this worthy movement for the
development Of good music, as 1t means
so much to our future development.

HAND CoLoRED DRAMA
BY 0AUMONT COMPANY.
AT THE REX THIS WEEK

The headliner for TIE first half Of the
week at the Rex Is the Gaumont hand
colored feature 1.-THE Fall of Constan-
tinople'' which Is one of the most pre-
tentious productions that this company
has ever put out 1t may be said that
there are comparatively few companies
with facilities for making such pic
lures. The elaborateness OF the set
tings, gorgeousness of the costumes,
number Of people employed, splendid
pageants and artistic and striking en-
sembles make 1t a photo drama that Is
unusual and the Interpretation La of
the best.
The period of the story Is 1853, the
theme Is the seige Of the city by Mo-
manned III, and its unsuccessful de-
Tense by Emperor Constantine XIII.
AS the Turks assail the walls of the
city the women and children gather
in the great Church of St Sophia and
offer up prayers. There is an impress
sive procession in which is carried the
statue of the protectress of the city and
the assault of the wells of the city
are highly spectacular. There are many
intensely thrilling and awe-inspiring
scenes as the women are bound by the
arms and carried off by the soldiers DO
be sold into slavery. THE Fall of Con
stantinople" has aroused much favor
able comment from lovers of beautiful
pictures and should not be missed by
any one.

TRAFFIC IN SOULS"
TO AGAIN BE PRESENTED
AT THE PINNEY THEATER

Traffic in Souls" the big feature
shown at the Pinney last week, will
be shown again the first three days of
this week.
Recent Investigations in New York
staggered the public, who were in
formed for the first time, Of the OPP
erations of a gigantic vice trust, with
agencies in every city of America and
Europe The average citizen could
scarcely realize that the vilest bust
ganized and conducted on commercial
principles of a great corporation upon
a high plane Of Ubiquitous efficiency.
The splendid work done by the Rookie
Teller investigating commission, aided
by District Attorney Whitman, of New
York, and the fearless work Of the po-
lice of all cities, created CONSERVATION
among the wealthy miscreants who
were reaping almost incredible for
tunes from this vile traffic The pass
ing of the Mann law made their oper-
atoms doubly difficult. And with an
awak ened public conscience It Is be-
lieved that these traffickers in souls
will gradually be eliminated. One of
the surest methods to secure this end
is to obtain publicity The promoters
Of the remarkable photodrama, "Traf-
fic in Souls" had this in view, with the
cordial Endorsement of all OF the lead
ing societies for the suppression of
crime and the police department Of
New York, as well as the immigration
commissioners. The play itself, en-
ploying 900 people, Is the greatest
achievement in photography 1t tells a
thrilling story with vivid actually and
without trace of pruriency. Nine
leading theaters in New York arc now
showing this wonderful masterpiece,
and the immense number of letters be-
ing received by the management from
women and men interested in social re-
form. proves that its fine moral tone
has met with unqualified appreciation.
