POduct Is Far In Excess OF the
supply

l.. d. Webster OF the editoriakstaff
of the American Sheep Breeder"
published at Chicago. was in Merid-
ian this week as the guest of his old
ime friend, L. s. Durham, the Stan
field company's representative here.
Mr.. Webster Is making his annual
tour Of the wool producing sections
OF the west. Referring 10 the pres
ent outlook for the wool industry.
he said:
THE outlook for profitable returns
for the sheep and wool men Of the
country was never more optimistic.
The demands are so far In excess Of
the supply that good prices are as
sured.
This state ranks third in the pro
duction of wool and naturally enough
its great wool production will con-
tinue to contribute materially to its
marked prosperity. Moreover, these
industries VIII develop increased pro
portions because of the demands for
wool and mutton being greater than
the supply"

Mrs. j. It. Hayner has copy OF
the Police Gazette of the week OF
June Both, 1882, containing an ac-
count of the trial OF Guiteau for the
murder of President Garfield, and
events before and after. The paper
gives pictorial history of the
crime, and is quite valuable relic.
While President Garfield was shot
July 2, 1881, of the preceding year,
one reason for this was the fact
that the President fingered for sew
eral months before death relieved
his suffering.

clans are not complying with the law

Loo Early to Rejoice.

Des Moines Capitol: While it is
gratifying to the suffrage cause IN
Iowa that the poll of newspapers as
conducted by The Capital discloses
sentiment two TO one in favor OF
granting women the ballot on June D,
the returns should in no way cause
a let-up in the campaign. Many edi-
tors in signing their ballot mentioned
that there was little discussion of the
topic and this is believed to be quite
generally true except in the larger
cities.
A disinterested public is one of the
greatest handicaps to any movement
which is dependent upon the public
suffrage. Because Of the fact that
two legislatures have already APPROX
ed a suffrage amendment TO our state
constitution there is a feeling in many
quarters that it will win easily az the
polls. Therefore many will cot take
the time and trouble TO mark bal
lot. The opposition, however, Will be
out in full force.
The experience of other states has
been that the 'antis' make quiet
but very effective campaign. 1t is the
undercurrent which must be watched
and combatted in the present fight.

EXTEND MAINS TO

Pipes Will Tap Mains Carrying Water
to Keokuk Heights and Garry It

Buildings.
NEED BIGGER SUPPLY
Tire Factory Needs More Water Than
Well Will GNe-Mains to
90 to River Refinery
NEED BIGGER SUPPLY

An extension Of the city water
mains, which have been run to Keo-
kuk Heights, win be made to include
the Standard Four Tire company's
building situated near Keokuk
Heights. The real estate committee
of the Industrial association having
Keokuk Heights in charge, went to
this district this afternoon to look
over the proposed extension of mains.
1t will be necessary for the tire
factory to have additional water
facilities. They will use city water
in the overhead sprinkling system for
fire protection and in other ways.
The plans is to run six inch mains
from the main pipe line at Main
street back to the plant of the Stand
ard Four Tire company.
The Keokuk Water Co. has already
extended its mains out Main street
to the new residence sections there.
The mains will be continued to the
\ er Smelling and Refining company
which Will insure city water service
to all of the tracts of land in this
vicinity at any time that they may
be opened either for residence or fac
tory districts.
Keokuk Heights will be served by
city water, the mains having been
extended to this territory. This will
insure regular city water service to
those who build in Keokuk Heights
addition. The mains to the tire fac
tory will run through this addition.
The final shipment of pipes to be
used in this extension has been made,
according to word received here.
