Against President of United States

necial to Times-Republlcan.

Special to Times-Republican.
Dubuque, March 24.-It recently has
been called to the attention OF the
United States marshal's office for the
northern district Of Iowa in this city
that in certain sections where there IS
a very decided pro-German feeling
there have been heard threats against
the president, not only that they have
been heard but that in certain papers
there has been printed inflammatory
matter. To meet the ~exigencies or the
occasion and to inform the people
one opposed to the president es-
pecially-Deputy Marshal A. G. Leitz
has caused to be quite generally cir
culated and printed in the newspapers
the text OF a law adopted by the, con
gress of the United States during the
session ended but a short time ago.
He has placed copies of the law in the
hands Of the deputy marshals turnout
the northern district.
1t is taken for granted this is but
another of the numerous other evil
dences-ot the near approach to war
with Germany and the probability that
there will be heard much of the things
prohibited, especially in certain dis
tricts. The marshals are instructed to
promptly report all cases coming to
their attention.
Text of Law.
The law in question is as follows:
Gan Act to Punish Persons Who Make
Threats Against the President OF the
United States.
BE it enacted by the senate and
house of representatives of the United
States Of America in congress assem-
bled, that any person who knowingly
and willfully deposits or causes to be
deposited for conveyance in the mails
or for delivery from any postofflce OF
by any letter carrier any letter. pa
per, writing, print. miSsive or docu-
ment containing any threat to take the
life of the president of the United
States or who knowingly and willfully
otherwise makes any such threats
against the president, shall upon con-
viction be fined not exceeding $1,000 or
imprisoned five years or BOTH
1t Is believed the knoWledge>of such
a law will cause less inflammatory talk
on the part of certain elements in
certain localities where they have been
quite bold. especially during the last
week or two since it has appeared the
country is sure to become embroiled in
a war with Germany.

BIG TRUCK RUSH HOW
 ON AT DEANYYILLE
Busy Little Town on P. & N. w.. Five Miles East of BlevinS, is Among the Leaders in Ship ping This Year.

A traveller on the Prescott & Northwestern is well aware of the fact when the train stops at Deany- vile, five miles east of Blevins, be- cause of the large amount of freight and express handled at this point, which maintains paying Wells Fargo Express office. Of course the most activity is during the truck shipping season, which is now on in full blast
 It is no uncommon sight to soe thir- ty or forty big wagon loads of water melons lined up awaiting their turn to unload at the large sheds where they are packed with the utmost care for express and freight transporta- tion to all parts of the north and east.
 The Deanyville Truck Growers As sociation which ships the truik of the section, is under the direction of w. TT. 4arberry, wha $ secretary and also the leading archant of the town. Mr. YarberIy is a live wire and is we'll acquainted with the fruit and vegetable industry and his effic- tent business methods puts many a dollar into the pockets of the mem bers of his association.
 Of cantaloupes there have been shipped already this season 24 cars. which will be followed by over 20 more before the end of the season. They are of the excellent Pollock Sal mon tint variety and are netting the growers on an average of $2.00 per crate.
 Watermelons, of which there have been 10 cars shipped with 20 more to follow, is proving a money maker for the planters. They are the well known Tom Watson melon and their enormous size and flavor establishes its reputation wherever it is sold. The average price received is S25O per car.
 Chas. Mautz, who recently erected store building and installed an up- to-date general stock, is one of the foremost business men in that sec ton. He operates and owns a good sized saw mill and modern cotton gin, both being located in Deanyvile near the railroad.
 Among the other shipments from this point are poultry, eggs and straw berries, also about GOO barrels of radishes, which brought this year an average of S3.25 per barrel
