Eogs Along the Highway.

There was sad funeral in Jasper
county the other day when the mo-
Their of six children was laid to rest.
The entire neighborhood turned out
and there was a sadness in every
breast over the departure Of good
woman. She was killed In run
away and two worthless dogs were
responsible for the tragedy. Every
community ought to appoint dog
killing day and on such occasions
there should be a general turn out.
Every dog that rushes out after ev-
cry passing vehicle should be prompt
ly shot. The law sanctions such a
procedure because the dog is tres
passer upon the public highway. The
courts have held that the owner of
the dog is responsible for whatever
damage may result from his depre-
dations. The best way to prevent
damages is to kill the dog that makes
such tragedies as that in Jasper coun-
ty possible. If dog owners would
the animals properly, team
and motorcycle chasing
would soon stop. A few good trounc
ings viii convince the dog of ordinary
that the highway is not
for exhibitions of canine ferocity.--

GAVE CLOSING ADDRESS.
Mrs. Jessie Hooper Spoke at City
Park Sunday on Suffrage.

The closing address for Equal
Suffrage was given in the Park Sun
day afternoon by Mrs. Jessie Hooper.
Lieut.. Gov. Morgan of Kansas who
was expected here was prevented
from filling his engagement, because
of the disastrous flood conditions.
We were fortunate, however, in
having Mrs. Hooper with us, who ad-
dressed good attentive audience,
and presented many truths which
should carry conviction to the minds
of intelligent voters who were pres
ent
She spoke of the prominent posi-
tion which Iowa occupies among the
states, of its being watched in regard
to it's attitude upon the suffrage ques-
ton, of being leader in scientific
agriculture, of the efficiency of Iowa
men on the business side, of the high
standard of it's schools and colleges,
of its low percentage of illiteracy, of
the fact that no Iowa man in this
state is speaking publicly against suf
frage that the opposition to the
cause is imported-and here the
speaker made a plea, that the men of
Iowa, of Winneshiek county, by their
votes uphold the good women of the
state-their wives, their daughters,
their mothers.
safeguard their interests, as our men
need it.
They need it as homemakers, as
teachers, as taxpayers, as wage earn
ers, and because they have the moral
and civic welfare of the state at
heart, they ask for a direct voice in
making the laws under which they
live.
For these and many other reasons
the speaker asked that the men of
Iowa on June 5th to vote white for
right and justice to one-half the peo-
pie of the state.
Now, at the close of this campaign,
in behalf of the members of the
Suffrage Amendment league, we
would express our thanks to all the
people who have so ably and willing
ly assisted us in this work.
To the editors, to the pastors of
some of our churches, to the people
who furnished us music, the business
men and women who have given us
window space for advertising, the
firm of Mott G Co. rendered theirs
beyond the usual time, to the mems
league for Equal Suffrage and all
other men who talked and worked for
US; the young people, the girls and
the boys who have given such ex-
cellent assistance; to those who gave
financial aid, to the women of Decor
all who have worked so untiringly for
the cause, and to our county chair
man, Mrs. Logsdon, who has shown
executive ability.
Dear friends to all of you we ex-
press our sincerest thanks.
