FOR GUNNeRs AND FISHERMEN.

Most men have used gun for sport.
If ay sport tie binds il is that OF the
rod ard gun Men grown old and men
growing older, recall their days ahcld
and on the water or beside the streams.
Comprehensive formed thus and
friendships thus created rarely fade. a
common tie bind the men who have
camped and hunted together and have
remained friends under that test which
approximates the test that garrison and
camp life put upon friendships in the
army. They like to meet and tax it
over. to recall days afeid or a: the
traps And they like to reaa Of hunt
ing and shooting and fshinr.
Tom Marshall is probably as well
known TO the hunters and trapshootcrs
Of the globe as any one other mar. He
is writing some comment and advice on
trapshootinC and s. rios 90 oIac- hunt
ing days. With the thought in mind
that hundreds and thousands or hunt
ers and trapShooters old and young
will find those articles Of interest and
pleasure the Times Republican has ar
ranged personally with Mr.. Marshall to
furnish a series of articles along the
lines indicated and will be pleased TO
hear from its subscribers as to the
value they find in them.
Mr.. Marshall is the only shooter to
win a worlds championship twice, has
been a member of the Illinois legisla-
ture and was mayor Of keithsburC tor
sixteen years. captained the All-Amer-
lean shooting teams which defeated the
Schotch and English teams in the tour
the American shooters made around
the world in 1901 and should write en-
tertaintngly to the thousands interested
in the gun and rod.

has issued from the Revell press new
press a new book along the lines in
which he has been so succe ssful-the
assimilation OF the immigrant. The
book deals with a Lincoln club started
by a Slav returned to his native coun-
try after having lost an arm and leg
in the civil war fighting for liberty and
Abraham Lincoln. The influence OF the
soldier upon the boys of the neishbor-
hood with his worship Of Lincoln is
told in the doctors inimitable style and
ends with a visit to the club trans
planted to an American city where the
boys who are now old men look with
pride upon the service flag hung in
their humble hall of meeting and the
stars on which represent their own sons
in the service OF the United States. The
book while not equal to previous efforts
of the author is interesting and carries
the same plea that previous works have
carried for the immigrant.

WILSON AND PEACE TERMS.
TCouncil Bluffs Nonparen.1

Perhaps II is unfounded but there
is in the country vague suspicion that
President Wilson may waver DIT
when il comes to fixing peace terms
In a sense this judgment is not to the
discredit Of the president. 1t is based
on the belief that he Is naturally IN
clined to be pacific. This inclination
was manifested in his reluctance 10

Mexico Mr.. Wilson has manifested a
strong disposition to accept humilla-

rather surprising to find the presi-
dent with those inclinations to pacif-
ism and non-interference taking such
firm stand for force without
stint" and mo peace without victory"
And to all our people who are capable
of forming an intelligent judgment
this firm and statesmanlike attitude
of the president is exceedingly graft

felt with the hand, that nipped the
vegetation and stopped growth. Simply
preparation for the coming winter. 1t
hurt some garden stuff. some tomatoes
and burnt the latest sweet corn but
the crops are safe and sound.
One observant farmer who has been
successful in farming operations thru a
lifetime said the other day that 95 per
cent of the corn is out Of the way Of
frost" Perhaps his estimate was too
high but in the general way that We
speak of "thc corn" that crop had
matured and was ready for tho change.
