ne NEW HUB, ClOhle
Formerly Anderson, the Clothier
In few days at 117-119 East Main street, in this
city, will the formal opening Of the New Hub,
Clothers. This will be Southern Iowas and Northern
Mssouris most complete clothing store and clothing
stock 1t will be big institution and it will in part be
the elimination Of years of mutual effort
Getting Double Value From Money
When the people of community patronize a store
in their community, and in return for the money
they get satisfactory reliable and dependable goods,
they are getting value received
Let analyze little farther along that line:
When that store takes the margin it has, during its
existence received from the people, and invests in
structing and equppng a thoroughly modern store
building in that city, then that community gets addi-
honal value for the money has invested with that firm
The who has traded with that firm and is now
employed in constructing the building gets back
the money that he paid for the merchandise that he
bought Through such avenues that money again gets
into all channels of trade - thus the dollar of
double benefit to that community.
It is thus that the people who have during the past
twelve years. patronzed Anderson the Clother, have
made it possible for Ottumwa to have the most scientific
ally built and arranged clothing in Iowa. We
proud of this store for Ottuwa for the people Of this
vicinity and for ourselves. But understand this
90 not claim for ourselves the credit for this magnificent
Improvement to the collective business wealth of o.
tumwa. We want it plainly understood and we take adj
vantage of this occasion to say ALL that is not to
that the credit for it is the praise and compliments
should be bestowed where they belong the people
who have placed their confidence in this firm and its
merchandise
This magnificent store that will be opened early in
November demonstrates to all that the judgment of
customers in selecting this store at which to trade,
and that their confidence has not been misplaced
Now, to all the people, say that when this
store is opened we know that you will feel want
you to feel - that it is much yours ours, and
you to here feeling that this great nstitu-
ton is the result Of mutual effort, and to
share with you a just pride in what has been accom-
plished.
So and with you will enjoy looking at the
results we have together attained.

The Next Presidential Campaign

The elections last Tuesday resulted in few surprises, among them the renewed strength of the old, republican party and the virtual annihilation of the Roosevelt progressives.
 The democrats lost many seats in the House of Representatives, but that was to be expected in an "off year" The democratic congressional campaign committee made large claims, but all experienced observers felt that the democratic party would be doing well if it elected majority of 20 to 30. It was believed, however, that several of the districts that went democratic in 1912 would be carried this year by the progressives instead of by the republicans. In other words, while the democrats did reasonably well the republicans did better even than many of the forecasts had indi- cated.
 The democrats should be able to win a decisive presidential victory again in 1916, but much depends upon busi- ness conditions as the next campaign approaches. If the European war ends next year business in this country will reach a new high record of prosperity almost immediately. But whether or not the war ends before the next pres idential election this country will en- joy a great deal of solid prosperity. The west with it's enormous grain crops selling at very high prices is al- ready beginning to boom. There is reason to expect great prosperity in the south in 1915 and when the agri- cultural south and the agricultural west have prosperity in full swing the whole country reaps benefit.
 Good times in the business world in 1916 will make for the triumph of the democratic party. Between now and then the republicans will work like Trojans for the complete rehabi- tation of their party. The democrats should be just as busy in maintaining perfect organization in every state.

Horses and Mules

If the local dealer who has already shipped several hundred mules to Europe to be used by warning nations is successful in filling orders for 100 more animals weekly for a period of . month, it will very probably happen that the farmers of Alabama will find themselves greatly handicapped when planting time comes again.
 The dealer in question is quoted as having said that he entertained no fears along this line, and he argued that the automobile has created sur plus. market of horses and mules. He has overlooked the fact, however, that up to the present time no automobile has been found capable of supplanting the plow-capable even of taking the place of the patient creature which is inured to the task of draw ing wood.
 There is, however, a bigger ques- tion of economies involved. The farmer who now parts with his horse or his mule for $150, will find to his regret that next spring he will be forced to enter the market for new animal and that he will be compelled

The Oldest Aeronaut

Prof. Samuel Archer King, reputed to be the oldest aeroraut in the world, died recently in Philadelphia at the age of ST. He made his first ascension in 1851, and in all made 480 flights without ever losing a passenger or having a serious accident of any kind. A balloon ascension of Professor King was a feature of the opening day of the Philadelphia centennial in 1876. Since that time he had been a feature of many fairs and expositions in all parts of the country.
 In 1907 Professor King built the Ben Franklin" which was at that time the largest balloon in the world. He made flight in it, carrying seven men, one of whom was Dr. George H. Zimmerman, president of the Ben Franklin Aeronautical Society of the United States. In October of the same year Professor King journeyed from Philadelphia to Mount Holyoke in the same balloon, distance of 320 miles. He took a party with him. AS late as 1908 the veteran aeronaut came very near having a fatal accident. The bal loon Philadelphia" burst in three places while 5000 feet in the air. Pro- lessor King had with him in the basket of the balloon two women and three men. His coolness and experi- ence enabled the party to reach the ground safely.
 Nowadays, when aeroplanes and Zeppelins are playing such conspic- uous part in the European war, the old fashioned balloon seems strangely antiquated. Even the management of the smallest country fair would not consider a daily balloon ascension a strong attraction and the circus that used to draw the crowds to a para chute leap has had to substitute more modern "thriilers" or else do away with the "great free show" entirely.
 Yet, the career of Professor King shows that when handled by an ex- perienced man the balloon is reason. ably safe means of aerial navigation To be sure, the balloonist is more oi less at the mercy of the elements ana is never quite sure where he's going when he starts out for trip, but com pared to the tricky aeroplane, par ticularly when it is operated by ar aerial madman who has a penchant for looping the loop and flying upside down, riding in the basket of a bal. loon IS almost as safe as jogging along behind an old gray mare.

Nieuport, which is frequently mentioned in the press dispatches from the European battle line. Is Belgian town situated half mile from the seacoast and half way between -Ostend and the French border. It has recently been the scene of some hard fighting. The town Is on the Yser. a stream which the Germans succeeded in crossing only to be mown down by the guns of the allies. Although Nieuport is badly situated and unhealthy, it is visited by many tourists in the summer wto are attracted there by it's bathing facilities. It was destroyed in 1883 by the English, but was rebuilt and fortified two years later by Philip the Bold. It was captured three times by the French-in 1745, 1792 and TEA.

to pay a price ranging from S20O to $500. For by that tune prosperity will again be at its height and the price of live stock will soar from it's present comparatively low level.
 The Age Herald is glad to note that the European war is creating business for local dealers in live stock. Never theless, this newspaper. cannot refrain from suggesting to the farmer that along with other resources, he cling to his mule, for it will be a thing of great value when spring comes again.
