in Cedar Rapids.

fifty republicans gathered at the Hotel

son for a conference. Fifth District
Chairman Burrows was present. 9th
ers in attendance were the legislative
candidates from the various counties,
chairmen Of the county committees, re-
publican newspaper men. with a gen
erous sprinkling Of party workers. AS
several of the speakers remarked, it
was a real old-fashioned repub..ra
love feast.
ENCOURAGING reports were brought
from all the counties. Nearly every
one present brought some enthusiasm
with him. but everyone took much more
away with him. Active organization
work will be begun at once in every
precinct in the district. While it is the
general feeling that no particular dam
ger threatens the ticket in Iowa. yet
the republicans of this district propose
to leave nothing to chance.
AS Congressman Good SO we'll eX-
pressed it, the mistakes OF the demo-
cratic party as so many and so pat
ent to everybody that republican
speakers will have no difficulty in so
ing before the people on this issue.
Hon. E. r. Moore. candidate for
lieutenant governor, spoke of the val
ue of organization and his remarks
met with a ready response. Other short
talks were made by nearly everyone
in the conference.

tempt to rob the Exchange Bank here,
robbers journeyed to the town OF
Purdy, eleven miles northeast of here,
where they succeeded in breaking into

made at 12:45. The robbers wrecked
a small safe In the front Of the ban
which was used to protect papers.
When they found there was no money
in it they turned their attention to the
vault door but failed to open it before
the noise Of the explosion brought a
number Of people, to the street.
The men made their escape thru a
back window and sped off in an auto
before chase could be given. The front
of the bank building vas completely
demolished by the blast. The post
office robbery occurred at 2 o'clock.
Bloodhounds were put on the trail Of

Imogene. Sept. 22.-The removal
after weeks Of hard work by a large
force of men. Of 800 or 400 rods Of
hedge from a farm near here, was in
itself a work entirely out of the ordi-
nary, and in addition the hedge was
decidedly out of the ordinary and has
a unique history, mention of which will
bring to mind some interesting Incl
dents of the early history of Mills and
Fremont counties.
Right after the civil war Dan H.
Solomon, an attorney, purchased a
large tract of land near 1mogene.
Solomon was an admirer Of hedge
fences and the first thing he did after
securing the land from Uncle Sam was
to surround his large farm with a
fence Of hedge. There was four miles
of fence in the farm enclosure and in
side this, well back from the road, he
planted his initials, ID. H.. S." in hedge.
These initials were large. The letter
$50 ran from the half mile line on the
south to the half mile line or the
east section line. It is in two sections
or rows Of hedge sixty feet apart and
in it's %serpentine growth practically
cut off from use all of that part OF the
farm. Joining the So on the north
are the large farm buildings. West of
the residence are two lines Of hedge
sixty feet apart and leading to the
north and west road. On the west
half Of the farm he placed the letters
II" and Sd" making altogether about
thirteen miles Of this most remarkable
hedge. 81
: soIonson'sS Remarkable Son. +.
The farm now belongs to c. B. Rob-
bins, Of Cedar Rapids. son Of 2 pioneer
settler Of this section.
Old timers still hera speak yet
almost in whispers of the Solomon
family. or least OF a sonSnamed Logan
Solomon. who wasfa giant in stature
and there vet remains on the farm
huge dumbbells which he used to ex-
plot in showingh his prowess. He was
also once arrested and tried for murder
in a court at Glenwood, but Of which
he was acquitted, setting up the claim
that the mamie killed. a chum, was
done by mistaking him for a burglar.
Only a p~artaofsthis great hedge fence
has yet heen removed. 1

Waterloo, Sept. 22.-The third days
session Of the Upper Iowa conference
Of the Methodist Episcopal church be-
ing held in this city was replete with
business interests.
DR.. w. w. Carlton, superintendent
Of the Davenport district, read an eX-
tended report of the years work on his
difficult field. He reported LIES new
members gained, an advance of 1000
in PASTORAL support, and a good ad-
vance in moneys in behalf OF the pc
neyolent interests of the church. Thr3a
new were built during the
year, one at Mt. Vernon costing $1,000
one at Low Moor costing $4,000 and
one at CaIamus costing $4,000. Taree
churches were rebuilt at Preston. Mar
telle and Central City. Debts paid total
$l3, 900, the leading item being the m
provements on the Marion church 10
the amount of $4,000. This report con-
cluded six years of work for DIR. Carl
ton on the Davenport district, at the
conclusion of which Bishop Mcconnell
presented a beautiful clock to DR..
Carlton in appreciation OF the splendid
work which he has done and in behalf
or the men on the Davenport district.
At Yesterdays session a committee
on temperance was appointed. com
posed of strong and leading men OF the
conference. Although they have not
yet brought in any report, the matter
Of temperance was infected into the
f Yt,~ n,,fornrr II a.
once aroused ardent discussions but
the bishop deferred the matter until
the committee on temperance should
give their report. There is no question
{but what the matter will be very spir-
4itedly. debated when the committee
presents its report, as the conference
is quite divided in what should be m
bodied in the resolutions coming from
the committee. Hr. Harding will be
radically opposed by a good many men
of the conference while others are
strongly convinced that the conference
should not mix as a body in the polit-
ical affairs of the state and the latter
position may be the position Of the
conference.
