Who Is telling the truth, Colonel
Roosevelt or Mr.. Barnes? And upon
that question, which towers high in
the mass and tumble of evidence the
determination of the case will swing.
MIR. Barnes approached his task
without excitement. without Visible
anger; with no. apparent vindictiye-
ness: with no obvious hatred. These
emotions seemed to have worked out
of him in his long weeks Of waiting
for a chance to be heard. The man
had changed marvelously overnight.
Yesterday he was morose. irritable,
unarproachable. as he had been all
through the ordeal of accusation and
insinuation. Today he was cheerful.

Both possess an extraordinary per-

DEPRESSION IN THE EAST.

An Ottumwa business man who has
lust returned from his spring buying
trip to the east reports that this sec
ton of the country will find it hard to
realize the extent of President VIII
sons so-called psychological depres
SION in the east Thousands of work
ers are idle, factories are running short
handed if at ALL and business firms are
running way behind. Whether as Viii
son says, the depression is psyche
logical or is the result of the low tariff
the effect is the samoa terrible bur.
den for business and labor too.
It is a relief to know that the great
central west is suffering least from the
depression and that most of the bust
ness being done has it's origin in this
great farming section of which Iowa
is the very heart.

ruE spRINc CLEANUP.

Don't let any spring fever feeling
keep you from planning early to clean
up your yard and the alley back OF
your house. Winter always leaves
lots of rubbish about the premises
that is unsightly and unsanitary, The
time to remove it is early In the
spring. And it is not enough to
merely clean up the outside Of the
house. The cleaning should start In
side. One of the first things to do is
~ clean out the closets and the attic
where the cast off, half worn clothing
has been relegated. Incidentally the
clothing that has been thrown aside side
would come in very handy if placed
in the hands Of the right people. If
you will turn 1t over to one OF tne
city's charitable institutions you can
rest assured that the clothing will be
Of more service than it would hanging
up in dark closet or stuffed into a
rag bag.
