 Three Misapprehensions.
 
 Henry F. Cope, of Chicago, speak ing before the Religious Education association, of which he. is general secretary. said the present agitation for the teaching of religion in the public schools is based on three mis- apprehensions,' as follows:
 First, that the state may proper ly. teach religion; second, that re- IfRion can be taught as mathematics and many other subjects can, and third, that teaching religions would solve all the problems of youthful de- linquency and cure the general pub- lie apathy to ecclesiastical affairs.

W. 7. Cartwright.

William Thomas Cartwright, the
third child of Peter and Janette Cart
wright, was born in Pike county,
Ohio, February 10, 1885, where he
grew to manhood and was married to
Matilda Goldman, April 25, 1861. To
this union eight children were born,
four boys and four girls, two of
whom have preceded him to the great
beyond. Cora died July 7, 1901 and
Harry died Sept. II, 1913.
With his wife and son George he
moved to Iowa in 1865 and lived for
one year on his fathers farm south
of Davis City. He then purchased
about 400 acres known as the w. T.
Cartwright farm, 2 u miles north of
Davis City, the price being s. per
acre. He engaged in farming and
stock raising. All of the children ex-
cept his son George were born and
raised on this farm.
He was first engaged in buying
stock with VIM. Davis, founder Of
Davis City, and later with J. S. Sum-
mers. Then for about l 6 years he
was in partnership with John Lee,
buying and shipping stock. After
this he retired from the firm and en-
gagged in farming and buying and
shipping walnut logs and lumber,
which was a great industry here 3 5
years ago.
AS age came upon him he sold his
big farm and moved to smaller one
in Woodland township east of Leon,
where he lived until his health failed
four years ago and he moved to Gar
den Grove. His health had been Door
for four or five years. His death
occurred in Davis City, Sunday, May
II, at II a. m.
About two years ago he had
stroke of paralysis, since which time
he had been incapacitated for bust
ness of any kind. Last September
they moved to Davis City that they
might be close to the children and
friends of his earlier life.
In his younger days he was a very
active energetic man, always pushing
business, and accumulated consider
able wealth, though he lost much of
it later in speculation.
To mourn his loss he leaves the
following children: George E., of
near Leon; Edward A., of Woodland;
Will c., of High Point; Mrs. W. E.
Lee and Mrs. C. S. Frazier, of Davis
City; and Mrs. l.. G. Reick, of Gains
vile; also brother, Frank P. Cart
wright, of Davis City, and the only re-
naming one of the original family,
besides a host of other relatives and
friends. The sympathy of the COM
munity goes out to the bereaved ones.
He joined the Masonic order at De-
catur City many years ago, afterward
becoming a charter member of Re-
membrance lodge, No. 375, A. F. &
A. NJ, by which order he was buried.
Funeral services were held at the
late home in Davis City Monday at
ternoon, interment being in the |. 0.
o. F. cemetery.

Who May Vote Democratic Ticket at
Primary Election.

In answer to the many inquiries
that have been made, the Office of
the attorney general of Iowa has is
sued statement relative to who may
vote at the democratic primary to
be held Monday, June LIST. Inquiries
have f1ocked in because of the state
ment that of the two hundred thou
sand democrats in Iowa but fifty
eight thousand voted at the last pri-
mary. In view of this situation and
the keen party spirit that is break
ing forth afresh all over Iowa the
question has arisen generally as to
who is entitled to vote. In many
counties in the state the majority Of
the voters have paid no attention to
the primaries because of the lack of
contests for nominations and many
of them have voted in the republican
primaries. In taking up this ques-
ton the attorney general constructs
the law as follows:
Any democrat who has heretofore
affiliated with the republican party,
by voting at the primary election as
a republican, must, in order to vote
as a democrat at the primary June
LIST, change his affiliation, by filing
with the county auditor of his coun-
ty on or before the 22nd day of May,
a change of utilization. All county
auditors have blanks for this purpose
and will furnish them on demand.
Any democrat who has not hereto
fore affiliated with the republican
party, although he has not attended
the primaries, may vote for his choice
of democratic candidates by simply
demanding of the judges of election
democratic primary ticket, and of
course all democrats who have here
tofore been voting at the democratic
primaries have the right to continue
so to do.
