, Orange City. !.
The proposition to bond the town OF
Orange City for $1O,500 to raise money
to purchase a new water supply tank
and make other improvements in the
system, has carried by a large major
ity. There were only twelve votes

A frog party, something new, was CIV
en- by Mss Mildred King Friday night
and as result the girls. all prominent
in society captured 100 frogs, and
wound up the evening with frog leg
supper at the home of Mrs. William
Sloan. Each girl wore heavy gloves
and outing costumes. Every time a
girl screamed when a frog jumped, she
had to pay fine, the total of this fund
buying the prize for the girl catching
the largest number Of frogs.
Sioux City.
Mrs. Margaret Schilling, widow Of
the late Edward Schilling, was awarded
$4,000 by jury which went out late
Friday afternoon. She sought to re-
cover $4,000 for the death Of Schil-
fling, who was knocked from q Atele-
phone pole by a shock from an cleo
trio wire. The Sioux City Gas &
Electric Company was defendant in the
action The wire carried more than
1000 volts Of electricity, it is alleged.

Clinton.
A treaty between the United States
and Great Britain was invoked by the
British heirs of the late Rev. Father
Peter O'Dowd, to override the Iowa
statute providing for a 10 per cent
collateral Inheritance tax to be paid
by foreign heirs. The treaty provides
that subjects of Great Britain shall be
subject to no greater tax than subjects
Of the United States, in the settlement
of American estates. The Iowa law dis
eliminates against foreigners, doubling
the collateral inheritance tax. It is
supposed that the court will rule ia
vorably to the British heirs, since a
treaty takes precedence over state
law.
Clinton.
That the allied fleets will never force
the Dardanelles without the assistance
of a land expedition operating thru
Asia Minor Is the belief Of William
Lake, of Clinton, who five years ago,
at the age OF 81, made his second trip
thru the Turkish straits. THE bend
in the Dardanelles at the narrows IL
much sharper than is shown in the
maps" says MT. Lake. "Warships at
lacking the forts in the bend can not
open fire until they are within a mile Of
the Turkish guns. and that gives
the Turkish batteries an 1oppor-
reply at short range. Most Of the
Turkish forts are protected by noun
tains from bombardment conducted
from the Gulf Of Saros, across the
neck Of the Dardanelles. It is only
three milees across but naval guns
cannot be elevated to drop shells ct the
right angle. Shots fircd from the Gulf

Washington, April 20-Theodore

lican party next year and take with
him the remnant Of the progressive
party. If
The republican national convention

But he will remain outside the sold

The republican national convention
dominates a reactionary republican
This Is an authoritative statement OF
the attitude Of Col Roosevelt concern
ing which there has been u great deal
of speculation during the last fortnight.
The statement was prepared and made
public by Frank Knox, the western
manager of the progressive party in
the 1912 campaign.
Ultimatum to Republicans.
In effect this statement Is an ulti-
matum served upon the republican
party by Col Roosevelt. He puts
forth the terms upon which the sup
port OF himself and his followers may
be obtained in the 1916 presidential
election.
opinion in the republican party upon
the question of accepting or rejecting
the ultimatum already is apparent.
The leaders OF the progressive wing
have been preaching tor some time
the necessity of selecting a candidate
who can bring the progressive party
members back into the old party, The
reactionaries are advising that Roose-
va1t hr ipr
dissatisfaction with the Wilson adj
ministration is so widespread that any
republican can reunite the factionssand
lead them to victory.
Statement Issued by Knox.
"Col. Roosevelt's attitude right now
Is a waiting one" Mr.. Knoxs state
ment said. HE recognizes the present
as hair trigger situation politically,
and he is observing developments with
the earnest hope that the position the
republican party will take and it's can
diGate will be such as to permit hearty
support of the millions Of voters whI
cast progressive ballots in 1912 and the
million and one-half who persisted In
voting the progressive party ticket in
1914.
NO man has the slightest authority
to say that Colonel Roosevelt, is for
this particular candidate or that one.
He lacks either the desire or purpose
to employ his influence in favor OF any
candidacy He has been quoted as
friendly to the Weeks boom. as looking
with favor on that of Herrick; it is
implied that he would regard Roots
nomination with pleasure. There is not
a vestige of ground for any of these
assumptions. 1t may be said with
equal truth that he has not Endorsed
the candidacy OF Senator Cummins nor
