Parade and Speaking
Opened Fourth
Liberty Loan Today

The parade this morning, opening
the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign
was not as large as it should have
been, for the simple reason that peo-
pie will not come forward voluntarily
and spontaneously in such a move
ment, but depend upon instruction or
direction from some authoritative
source. No arrangement for this
was thought necessary, and the result
was that the parade feature of the
opening by no means represented the
interest or spirit of the people. How
ever, fair number of people, of the
kind who 60 ahead and do what they
see is right, whether the crowd fol-
lows or not, fell into line, headed by
a bevy of ladies, bearing between
| them a large American flag. The
men followed, and a large body Of
children marched behind.
The parade ended at the Park,
where arrangements for speaking had
been made, and as soon as the crowd
gathered about the stand Rev. c. /.
Stacy introduced, the first speaker,
Hon. Herbert S. Phillips, who was
formerly District Attorney in this
district, is we'll known to most of our
people, and is very popular with
them He made an excellent talk,
stressing the absolute security of the
bonds as an investment, the necessity
for buying them in order to win the
war, and the duty of the citizens at
home to back up the soldiers who are
fighting for our lives and liberties, by
answering the calls our country
makes on us for financial assistance
Rev. Stacy next appropriately in
troduced j. G. Davis, returned sol
der from the front, who was wound
ed at Chateau Thierry and who is
here to recuperate. Private Davis
: says this was the first speech he hat
ever made in public, but, while max
. ing no attempt at oratory, he inter
ested his audience very much, de
scribing many details of soldier
life at the front, the hardships encoun
tered being sufficient to make any
: one ashamed of complaining abou
the trifiing inconvenience war ha
: brought us here. He spoke of tn
, Red Cross as great agency c
= mercy, and also praised in very war;
: terms the work of the Salvatio
S Army. He described the battle
t Chateau Thierry, which he said was
e beautiful town somewhat larger tina
t Lakeland, but after the battle pra
: tically every building was reduced
e mere heap of stones. He sa
: that the ground on which the sc
9 diers were fighting was torn wit
shells to the extent that in mar
of the shell holes any building
Lakeland could be hidden. The All
orleans are going to win this wa

In order to raise money with when

the health and comfort Of the soldiers
during the Civil war, the people OF Du-
buque held a very successful fair dur
ing the summer of 1864. Contributions
poured from all parts Of Iowa and from

cupied three good sized buildings,
lasted for about week. When the
fair closed. according to an article by
Earl 8. Fullbrook recently published
by the State Historical Society OF
Iowa. the total receipts had almost
reached ninety thousand dollars, and
many goods still remained unsold. Such
materials as could be converted into
hospital clothing were turned over to
the Soldiers Aid Society Of Dubuque.
Many other things were given to the
fairs at Rockford and Warren, Illinois,
and similar enterprises at Marshall
town and Burlington, Iowa. When the
final report was made the managers
stated that a few articles still remained
undisposed OF among which were an

No Criminal Work For Grand Jury.

Nevada, Jan. x-It took Judge L. NJ.
Mccall longer to organize and instruct
the grand jury for the January term
Of Story county district court than it
did that body to perform Its duties and
adjourn. Less than half an hour after
the organization the grand jury re-
turned with its report on the county
jail and stated that as there was no
criminal work for it to investigate, they
were ready to be dismissed for the
term. This was done.
The grand jury visited the county
jail and made an inspection and re-
ported that they found that institution
kept in a cleanly and sanitary condi-
ton and in the best OF shape unde,
the supervision Of Mr.. and Mrs. .Henre-
han.
The lack Of criminal work In the
county is attributed largely to the sup
preston OF intemperance in the county
and state. There has been practically
no criminal procedure in Story county
since the state went bone dry" and
people were unable to get liquor into
the county either for personal use or
for illegal sale.
