PURE FOOD CONFERENCE
inspectors and Assistants Meet 70 Ley
Plans For Better enforcement Of
State Laws-Revissd Edition Of Food
and Dairy Laws Being Printed.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Molnes. May 1.-THE conference
of the food and dairy department
opened today, when the inspectors and
assistants met and talked over theiI
work and laid plans for better enforce
ment OF the food and other laws OF the
state. Commissioner Barney has made
quite hit by bringing his department
under this sort of mutual helpful
ness. The last legislature added two
more to the force. One OF the big
things to be done at this meeting Is to
make a thorough study of the changes
in the law. The legislature really paid
the department a compliment. In a very
practical way, by materially increasing
the allowance for Its work and reduce
ing some OF the fees, so that the de-
partment will be less dependent upon
fee collections and under less necessity
of making itself needlessly obnoxious.
On the program today aside from
Commissioner Barney, is Governor
Clarke, Deputy Commissioner b. G.
Tiff. Inspectors Harrison and Mines
and Chemist Redfern. Tomorrow there
will be papers by f. w. Van Duyn. Of
E. j, Nolan, his assistant, Inspector

Iowa can not lose real estate by failure
to claim possession even to a school
district, so the supreme court says. In
deciding the famous acre Of ground
case from Davis county the school dis
trict lost out.
The case was peculiar one. The
late Edwin Manning had title to the
land under u quit claim deed from S.
T. Caldwell made in 1865. A year or
so ago the present owner, ]. NJ. Nc
Clure, wanted to build near the school
house and found he was barred be-
grounds. He looked about and found
he really had no title to the forty
acres, because the state of Iowa had
never parted with its title obtained
under the Saline land grant in 1S45.
He proceeded to procure deed from
Iowa two years ago, which deed COW
cred the school site as well as the rest
of the land. Then he fenced up the
school yard.

inasmuch as there had been school
there for more than thirty years the
state was estopped from disposinS of
the school acre. 1t was set up that
the state, or state officials at least,
knew about the school being there.
For instance, ]. A. T. Hull, lived in
that part of the Hairy Nation" in the
'7Os and must have heard Of Salt
creek school, Then B. F.. Carroll had
actually taught school in the Salt
creek district before he became state
officer. And it is not very far-though
this was not pleaded-from where Gov
ernor Clarke grew~up.
But the supreme court holds that
despite all this. the state still had all
the time title to the land, and the
statute of limitations doesn't run

Makes Candid Statement Of Issues
on Which He Will Seek Political

Nomination and Election.

Council Bluffs, May 11.-Attorney
General George Cosson was in Council
Bluffs Monday forenoon between the
time of the arrival of the morning train
on the Burlington and the departure Of
the Rock Island for Des Moines. Mr..
Cosson gave an address at Clarinda
Sunday evening. A monster union
meeting was held in the armory at
which Mr.. Cosson spoke on the sub
ject of Law and Justice"
State Senator Francis of Spirit Lake,
was also to have spoken but he was
unable to leave home in time to reach
Clarinda for this occasion.
Mr.. Cosson says that he is candi-
date for the republican nomination for
governor of Iowa. He isn't following
the usual line in seeking this prefer
ment, however. He is not talking
generalities and lodging issues but is
boldly and frankly taking issue with
those who stand for local option in the
matter of law enforcement
Cosson says the state should, while
dealing fairly and honorably with its
citizens, insist upon respect for its
laws in every section. AS governor of
Iowa he says candidly that he would
continue the policy he has pursued as
attorney general of using all his re-
sources to compel a decent regard for
state law in every part of the state.
There is no installing the fact, too,
that the attorney general is looking
upon his prospects with about as much
assurance as most Iowans are looking
for a fine crop. He is getting en-
couragment from every part of the
state both from individuals and news
papers and neither he nor his friends
would be surprised in the least if when
it comes down to the primary there
would be but two candidates in the
field-Harding and Cosson.
1t appears clear from his earnest
manner and a tone of confidence in his
expression that Mr.. Cosson would
rather enjoy a tryout with Mr.. Hard
ing on this law respecting and law
enforcing issue. Cosson has an abid-
ing confidence in the judgment of the
people of Iowa when case is fairly
presented to them. He is also su
premely confident in the rectitude OF
his own purposes. His whole manner
is indicative. therefore, of modest con
fidence in the outcome Of the political
contest for which lines Of battle are
now being formed. 49,

among even the little sixth graders and
they are beginning to profit by the
hints and suggestions dropped by the
inspectors who became deeply inter-
ested in the project by the very act OF
inspecting and recording judgment.
