is 1T PRACTICAL TO MOVE
POLES TO SIDE THIS FALL?

The question of the moving Of the
poles Of the Cedar City Electric Co.
and the Iron County Telephone Co.
from the center to the side Of Main
street, in accordance with the ex-
pressed will of the citizens and the
wishes of the state engineer and the
present city administration, was I'M
der consideration by the respective
boards Of directors of the Light and
Telephone companies last night, at a
conjoint session held in the Office of
the Telephone company.
The various phases of the question
were considered: The financial i'm
portance of the undertaking and the
condition of the companies-particu-
arly the Light company---to under
take it; the lateness of the season and
The lack of preparation on the part Of
the companies, and it was the senti-
ment of the members present that it
would be impracticable to make the
change earlier than next spring. A
committee consisting of Manager
Woodbury. of the Telephone company
and President l.. w. Jones of the
Light plant, were selected as COM
mittee to wait upon the city council
and explain the situation and also to
confer with the state engineer during
his scheduled visit here within the
next few days.

AMBASSADOR DUMBA GOING TO
EXPLAIN WAR" STRIKE.

EXPLAIN WAR" STRIKE
Washington, Sept. Upon diplo-
matte definition and application Of
term "gross improperly hinges the
Washington Administrations attitude
toward Austrian Ambassador Dunn
ba. President Wilson will be Judge.
Ambassador Dumba came here to-
day from his Massachusetts, summer
home to explain personally to Sec'y
Lansing his action in suggesting to
his foreign Office that Austrians en-
ployed in American steel and war
munitions plants be called out. He
was understood to bring copy of
letter found among documents taken
from James F. ]. Archibald, Ameri-
can correspondent detained recently
at London, to Austrian Chancellor
Burian, suggesting strike movement.
That Dumba merely suggested and
did not unqualifiedly recommend the
Austrian strike, was pointed out to-
day in official circles. This being the
case, it was generally believed adj
ministration would take position
that there was no such gross breach
of conduct by Dumba as to warrant
request for his recall.
New York, Sept. 7.-Hungarian
newspapermen in this city said yes
terday that plan outlined in memo
randum found among papers seized
from J. F. J. Archibald, by British
authorities at Falmouth, describing
in detail how Hungarian workmen
could be used to check manufacture
of arms at Bethlehem Steel works
and other munitions plants was not
worth serious consideration, in spite
of fact that it was recommended by
Ambassador Dumba of Austria and
Endorsed by Captain Van Papen, mil
itary attache of German embassy.

L. l.. CALDWELL is SEVENTY. NINE
Well Known Veteran Celebrated His
Birthday on May %.

Comrade l.. L. Caldwell was seven
ty-nine years old last Saturday, and
was receiving the congratulations of
friends on every hand. He was
born on May %, 1886 at Bingham
ton, Boone county, New York. Mr..
Caldwell was reared and educated ia
New York and Wisconsin and af-
forwards devoted his attention to
general agricultural pursuits for q
short time. Subsequently he en-
tered the service of the Mobile &:
Ohio railroad in Tennessee as a con-
ductor, acting as such until the be-
ginning of the civil war, when he
returned to his native state, he en-
listed in 1862, at Schenectady, be-
coming member of Company B,
Second New York Cavalry, serving
with that command until November,
1865, and being mustered out at AL
bany, New York. He was wounded
several times and barely escaped
with his life. He made a splendid
record as a brave and valiant SOL
der and was awarded a medal by
congress for gallantry in action
an honor of which he may well be
proud, for there are only two other
similar medals in the state.
When the country no longer need
ed his military aid, Mr.. Caldwell
made his way to Prairie du Chen,
and entered the employ of the c..
NJ. & st. P. Ry. and he began run
ming a train on the Iowa and Dakota
division Before and after the war
he was in the railroad service for
twenty-six years, running passen-
ger train during twenty-one years
of that time. In 1883 he abandon
ed railroad work and came to De-
corah, becoming identified with the
Citizens Savings Bank in the capa-
city of cashier for some years.
Mr.. Caldwell and his good wife
have passed their fifty-fourth we'd
ding anniversary together and both
are enjoying the fruits of well spent
lives. We join with the many friends
of Mr.. Caldwell in wishing him many
more birthdays.

Flag Day June IA.

The one hundred and thirty-eighth
anniversary of the adoption of the
flag of the United States of America
will be celebrated this year on June
IA. The American Flag association
formed of individuals and committees
from patriotic societies in the Unit
ed States to promote reverence for
and prevent the dissertation of the
flag of our country. Following close
ly upon the Lusitania and Gulflight
outrages the day should be peculiarly
appropriate this year.
We earnestly exhort our citizens TO
join in making Flag Day an event
and its celebration in 1915, a great
event. Let us from one end of our
land to the other fling the stars and
stripes to the breeze on June II,
1915. May it greet the rising and
salute the setting sun, and float all
day long from every church edifice,
school and building, public and pri-
vate, and however humble, through
out the entire land.

IOWA CREEKS STRANGE NAMES
State HonOrs Animals, Insects, Fruit
Fowl, Drink-MentiOns
Pergatory.

That Iowa is farming state is re-
Elected in the names of many of the
streams that flow through it. First
there is Farm Creek, so that Farm
ers Creek is not out of place; then
there is Chicken Creek, a Duck
Creek, a Goose Creek, number of
Turkey creeks, as we'll as Pigeon
Greek. There are Fox, Hawk and
Rat creeks to devour the domestic
animals, and some Crow creeks,
while there is also a Fly Creek and
Mosquito Creek to worry the sum-
mer boarders. Milk and Cold Water
creeks are present, likewise Hog
Run and a Mud Creek, SO that Ba-
con Creek is not strange. 1t is fit
ting that with Bee Creek and Bee
Branch there should also be Honey
Greek. There are couple of Cherry
creeks, Crabapple Creek, and plen-
ty of Plum creeks, and for wild ami
mails we have Bear, Beaver, Buck,
Crane, Deer, Doe, Elk, Otter, Pan
Their, Raccoon, Skunk, and Wolf
creeks. With Keg Creek there is
Whiskey Creek and Whiskey run.
Finally there is a Purgatory Creek,
and last, but not least we have Dry
Run, in DEBORAH, which is not so
dry as the name implies.

nine. These nine brothers were
born and raised in Bode, although
two of them now live in North Da-

DEBORAH is one of the cities in this

Indebtedness is Offset by sufficient
money in the treasury to pay it as

remember also, that DEBORAH has met
with some costly misfortunes which
