today says. Vigorous buying from
the eastern warehouses, covering by
the short interests and pool activity,
combined in today's stock market to
push materially higher the general
level of Industrial prices, under the
leadership Of steel and copper issues.
From the opening Of the market the
steel and copper groups took the lead
and most of the issues advanced to
new high record prices. Trading in
the first hour was active in the ex-
IRENE. but there was period Of rela-
tive calm in the second hour, when
new wave Of buying set in at midday
that carried industrial prices to still
higher levels. United States Steel
advanced we'll above 125 and there
was especially strength IN the gull
states, Bethlehem preferred, Lacka
wanna and Republic. In the copper
list Anaconda crossed 103, Kennecott
sold above 81 and Inspiration and
Chino went through u.
The equipment and specially issues

STATE RATING
REPRESENTATIVE Of National State Rat
ing League Interesting keokuk
Business Men.

D. D. LaRue, representing the Ma
tlonal Rating league is il keokuk in
teresting the business and professional
men in state and national rating.
Man is rated, fundamentally by the
way he is known to meet his honest
obligations.
A rating based upon this principle
is being compiled in this county to
connect with the state and national
system. Each debtor Is given a hear
ing in his own behalf in which he is
|given an opportunity to pay or make
satisfactory arrangements to pay his
creditors. His own action in this de-
termines his rating, and not the opin-
ion of his creditors. AS each man
moulds his own character or reputa-
ton, so does he mould his own rating,
which is part Of his character
A book known as Iowa's Red Guide
or Credit Record will soon be in the
hands Of all those who extend credit.
The guide will contain the names of
those who fail or refuse to meet their
honest obligations. No name will be
entered therein until ample time is
given for all to protect their rating
just the same as the business man Is
given by Dun and Bradstreet. In
Tie luluIe luS lOCdl UuSlueSo diu pio
fessional man will be protected just
the same as the wholesalers are now
protected AS the debtor changes
from doctor to doctor, store to store,
town to town, county to county and
state to state, one can turn to the Red
Guide and see what the standing OF
the person was at the last place he
traded or the town from whence he
came Tie object of this national or
ganizatior is to weed out those un-
worthy.
The work OF the Ne Iional Rating
league. educating the consumer that
there is rating is with malice toward
none and charity for all.

TIL ISL ANDS
TO BE VISITED
Colonel Roosevelt Has Mapped Out
Next Vacation Trip to
That Point.

NEW YORK. Nov. 17.-Although!
the Fills and the Polynesians Of
Samoa don't know it yet, their re-
spective islands are due for tilt.
and the South Pacific for somewhat
of a splash, so to speak, next Feb
ruary-T. R. is going to visit EN-.
1t is understood this trip is to con-
stitute the colonel's vacation after
the labors he undertook in the inter
est of Chas. E. Hughes. Mrs. Roose-
welt will accompany Roosevelt. He
chose the Samoa and Fiji island be-
cause they are both highly spoken OF
by physicians as above the average
in climate and because to Roosevelt
they will afford him good play
ground for the rather arduous vaca-
tons he generally takes.
Although Wesleyan missionaries
have driven sin and canabalistlc
traits from the erstwhile savage Fills
and the energy they once spent in
thinking up unique fortunes for I'M
fortunate victims has been turned to
more civilized channels, there re-
mains many distractions on those
islands. Mr.. Lippincott's gazetteer
mentions numerous worn out vol
canoes to crawl about in and many
health springs with such modern
conveniences as hot and cold water
reservoirs. There are several thous
and foothills in Samoa and lot OF
wild territory in which many number
Of heretofore undiscovered wild
things are said to abound unnamed.
The colonel plans to start about
February l. He hasn't decided YET
whether to go through the Panama
canal or across continent to Sar
Francisco for his boat He will be
gone probably two months. 1t Is
most unlikely that Roosevelt viii
make any political announcements o.
speeches until after his return.
