Object Abandoned

In the early afternoon after hurried conference between the governors and leading banking interests. word came that the entire project had been aban- doned for an indefinite period. The "com- mittee of i've exercising plenary powers over the exchange during it's period of closure stated that at "the magnitude of the interests affected has led to unfore- seen difficulties which win necesstate further consideration
 The nature of the difficulties was not disclosed. but it was learned formidable opposition had emanated from several quarters. Some of the largest bond deal CTS were said to have emphasized their disapproval on the ground that the time set for resumption was too short to per init careful handling of their commit ments Others opposed renewal of opera tions because they believed heavy selling orders from abroad would follow. Color was given to this belief by the fact that prices of listed stocks in the unofficial market had receded several points during the morning on supposed foreign offer ings.
 Banks and other financial institutions with large Wall street clientele also were reported to have advised against open trading because of the possible ef- feet on the loan situation and tho inter- national banking group was declared to have expressed it's opposition because of the lack of encouragement from London and tho uncertainties attending the entire foreign exchange situation.

WHY WEAK LUNGS?

The toll of tuberculosis is claiming
more than $50 victims every day in the
United States, yet few realize their grave
condition until the critical period arrives.
Overwork, worry, weakness after sick
ness, catarrh, bronchitis, tender threats
all exert the weakening influence that
invites consumption.
To guard against consumption, thou
sands of people take Scott Emulsion after
meals because its rich medicinal nourish-
ment strengthens the lungs, puts vigor in
the blood, and upbui1ds strength to resist
tuberculosis. Scott s Emulsion is natures
strength builder. Refuse substitutes.

BILL TO END SHIPPING CALVES.
House Committee Reports Measure
FOrbidding Commerce i'm Animals
Under Six Weeks Old.

Washington, ID. C. May 1.-THE
house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce has reported a bill
preventing the interstate shipment
of calves under six weeks of age. The
measure was introduced by Congress
man Hamilton of Michigan.
The committee condemns the prac-
tice of shipping calves under six
weeks of age as ''cruel to animals,
dangerous to human health. and dis
gusting in its revelation of cheap and
nasty cupidity in perpetrating on uu-
suspecting consumers food unfit for
human consumption"
The bill has been indorsed by the
department OF agriculture on the rec
ommendation of A. ID. Melvin, chief
of the bureau of animal industry.

Some of our exchanges carry poll
tical announcements to the number
of twenty-five or thirty. These pro-
clamations are for county Offices. In
Polk. nearly one hundred men are
candidates for county offices. There
are sixty-fve in the republican ranks.
Every political party is represented
In the state at large fully 5000 men
are candidates for county offices,
says the Des Moines Capital. AS a
rule, the salaries are not above ST.
500 per year. Campaign expenses
cannot be reckoned at less than $500
per man. Thus there will be expeld-
ed in the Iowa primary campaign
this year quarter of million dol
lars. This is an enormous amount
of money to be poured out in politics.
But the boys are having good time.
The candidates who are chosen will
spend another quarter of million in
the election. Maybe this Is what is
the matter with Iowa. 1t is aston
ishing to find so many men willing
to spend their time and money for
insignificant offices knowing that they
will have to contribute to every com
mittee which calls upon them wheth-
er they desire 10 do so or not.
1t Is great game.

The simplest of ceremonies mark
ed the fourteenth White House we'd
ding on Thursday and the second OF
the Wilson administration. Miss
Eleanor Radolph Wilson, youngest
daughter of the president, was mar
ried to William Gibbs McAdoo, secre-
tary of the treasury. Only members
of the immediate families of the
bride and the groom and McAdoo's
colleagues in the cabinet with the
vice president and Mrs. Marshall
were present.
There was none of the pomp and
ceremony which attended the mar
riage last November of Miss Jessie
Wilson to Francis Bowes Sayre. The
fact that the groom was widower
influenced this decision. sh
The ceremony took place in the
blue room, where Miss Frances Fol-
som was welded to President Cleve-
land. The nuptials were almost iden-
tical with those of the Cleveland
wedding. 1t, too, was private af-
fair, with only dozen or so invited
guests.

Decorah under the auspices of the
Decorah Fire Department. The

ed to transport the shows and there
are twenty different shows and at

free attractions. This covers larg-
er spread of ground than big cir

other great features that will please
There are no snake shows of any
nature and none of the immoral girl
shows are in evidence. The shows
are noted for their cleanliness and
cater to women and children at al
| times.
The feature attraction is the Au-
| todrome. This is a saucer shaped
track in which riders defy death il
nerve racking races. One of the ra
ces is a motorcycle against an auto
mobile. At full speed the riders arr
in horizontal position. This is the
identical duplicate of the drome:
operated by this company as perma
nant features at Chicago and othe
large cities.
In the musical comedy one sees tn,
same form of entertainment as thu
) heaters have. A big chorus is {
1 strong feature with its pretty girl
and stunning costumes, funny come
dians and excellent orchestra. Thi
one entertainment runs for one hou
and gives, as does all shows, tn
worth of his money to the patron.
The place of exhibition will be th
hitching grounds and some othe

are many and change every day. On
