New County Atlas.

W. B. Murdough, represe ntlng the
Geo. A. Ogle Co of Chicago. was
in Lancaster Friday, getting the
opinion of the business and profess
siunal men regarding the feasibility
of making a new atlas Of Grant
county. The present atlas was pub
lished a good many years ago and of
course is more or less inaccurate at
the present time. The Ogle people
if they decide to get out an atlas.
will according to Mr.. Murdough,
make a thorough and comprehensive
atlas of the county showing each
township in detail and the exact
Typographical conditions of each sec
ton as we'll as the owners names of
the farms and the locations of the
buildings, number of acres they con-
tain, the various cemeteries, schools
and churches, etc. We understand
that he was successful in securing
the endorsement of number of the
leading firms and it is likely that the
company will be in the field before
long.

The Ball game that was to have been
pulled off at Cassville last Sunday be-
tween Bloomington and that city on
account of having a rain storm was not
pulled, and the Auel brothers, of Bee
town, that went over to play with the
Cassville team, had several blowouts
coming home in the rain. Such is the
life of Ball Gamer.
Mrs. j. M. Hayden, milliner of this
place started for the city last Saturday
to purchase her fall stock and will be
back IN time to accommodate her custo-
mers in time for the Bloomington Fair.
In the meantime Jim will take an
outing visiting relatives and friends in
Beetown and elsewhere.
In visiting Beetown last week we
concluded that it would be nice thing
for someone with capital to build a
number of tenant houses there, as the
married population is increasing SO
rapidly that it is almost impossible to
house them. One landlord had to tear
down his house in order to get rid of
his tenant. Another had to threaten
almost everything but bombarding the
house to get rid of an undesirable
squatter.
The Rev. Samuel Taylor. an Evan
gelist of Richland Center, is holding a
series of meetings in sBeetown in a
large tent furnished by himself, and
by his deliberations, which some people
say is next to Billy Sunday, is drawing
large crowds day and night to his fold.
And he certainly has chosen the right
spot to practice his profession and the
better element of the place are praying
fervently for his success.

Wondering, Miss Wheeler followed

FACTORY FIRE IS
CALLED INCENDIARY
Belief of Residents Is That Place was
Burned by Fire Bug-To Re.
build, It is Stated.

The Fort Madison factory fire Is
believed to have been Of incendiary
origin, according to the following
from the Gem City:
Fire starting from an unknown
origin. but believed to have been in
cendiary, started in the interior of the
Fort Madison Shoe Manufacturing
company plant at the corner Of Union
and Santa Fe avenues about 10
o'clock Sunday evening. Within
thirty minutes after the fire was dis
covered the interior of the structure
had been swept from end to end by
the flames and the building was a
smouldering ruin. The efforts Of the
firemen to check the fire that swept
through the building creating roar
ing furnace, were fruitless as the
blaze had gained too great Roadway
before their arrival. The damage to
the building and the contents is estf-
mated in the neighborhood Of over
$4,000. Statements given by resi-
dents in the vicinity of the building
point to incendiarism. The building
and contents were only partially COW
cred by insurance.
It was stated today by the mem
hers of the firm that the plant would
in all probability be rebuilt and 1t Is
manned to rush the work that the
factory may be in operation in order

ANOTHER PRIMARY
IN IOWA NEXT YEAR
presidential Choice Will be Made by
People at Polls In April
Another In June.

DES MONIES, April 27.-Along
with their speculation concerning the
state primary, politicians are begin
ming to take an interest in the presi-
dental primary which will be held
In Iowa next year for the first time.
The presidential primary Will
come on April 10. At It., according
to the laws passed by the thirty fifth
general assembly, the voters Of each
party will elect the delegates and al
ternates to their respective party ma
tional committeeman for each party,
and delegates to the county conven-
tons.
The number of delegates to be
elected will be determined according
to the call sent out by the national
committee of each party.
The law makes provision for the
manner in which candidates for dele
gate shall file their papers and gel,
their names on the ballot The ballot
will carry the two questions: Shall
the district delegates be instructed
by the vote Of the state at large?'
and shall the district delegates be
instructed by the vote OF the congress
sional district" and upon the decision
on these questions will rest the
course the delegates will take in the
convention.
The early date of the presidential
primary will make the campaign for
presidential nominations the first
feature Of political activity in Iowa
next year. In former years, the dele
gates to national conventions have
always been selected in the state
convention for that purpose by dele
gates chosen under the old caucus
system. Installation of the new sys-
tenn will mark the passing OF anoth-
err of the few remaining reminders of
the old system OF caucus rule in polt-
tics.
Addition OF the presidential pri.
mary will also give Iowa total or
three statewide elections in the one
year. The primary ON state offices
will follow in June and the genera,
presidential, state and local elections
will come in November

sible to give them. But If John Smith
could say:
Strike the Downer's Grove turn
pike at -th street, follow it to
Blank road, turn west at Plank turn
pike, and my house is No. 1O5OO.'
wouldn't it be a lot better for all con-

This may seem a big proposition,
but it is not really so. If every ono
of the various interests concerned will
get together the desired result can b ,
accomplished in a remarkably short
time.
Cooperation will do it. The autoist
needs 1t, the farmer needs 1t, Un;te
Sam needs it, the business man nee is
it. And just as soon as they will
get together and realize it. just so
soon will every road have its definite
individuality and general Improvement
of those roads will begin.
