Des Moines, April 15.-The house
judiciary committee late Monday
sdoptsd the majority report Az reported
20 II by the committee Of Ave, recon-
mending to the house Impeachment of
Governor Harding. The vote was II
for to ~ against. the original seven
teen which voted for Impeachment
voting for the adoption of this recon-
mendation. The recommendation IS a
document of thirteen typewriter
pages reviewing the evidence. 1t
states that while the governor did not
receive money. the granting OF the
pardon and his later acts constitute a
gross malfeasance and misdemeanor
in office.
A minority report, signed by four
teen members of the committee. oe-
clares that the governor acted hastily
and without proper Investigation in
granting the Rathbun pardon but did
not act corruptly nor did he have any
Interior motive. That he did not act
wilfully and is not therefore guilty or
malfeasance or a misdemeanor; that
the evidence submitted in the ma
Jorfty report does not Justify i'm
parchment and that the report Should
not be adopted. 1t does recommend
censuring the governor.
Harding Mobilizins Forces.
The whole republican party ma
chinery is being modified to defeat
the resolutions of Impeachment. For
mer Congressman Charles Pickett. Of
Waterloo. Joe Lane OF Davenport. and
other Warehouses; of the organization
are on the ground. The plea that i'm
parchment will damage the parry -
the one being used most frequently.
Henry Adams. Iowa attorney for the
Northwestern railroad. who has been
credited with being one OF the COVER
nors advisers during the recent de-
velopments, Is also one of those en-
gagged In mobilizing forces. The ma

FAMILY SHOE BILLS

Tramping Is miles a day. Mr.. H. M.
Foreman. q mail carrier Of Allentown,
Pa. found that shoes with ordinary
soles last about one month. But he
says a pair Of Neolin-soled shoes gave
him more than nine months of service,
in which time he walked over 1900
miles.
His experience shows how you may
save shoe money by providing your
family with Neolin-soled shoes, which
give extra wear where other shoes wear
out quickest.
You can get Neolin-soled shoes in
any type Of shoe yousswant. Prices
are aboNt the same as Tor shoes that
give only ordinary wear, sometimes
they are even less. If your dealer
hasn't the style you want, he can get
it for you quickly. Remember, Neolin
Soles are created by science to be what
soles should be. They are available
everywhere for residing as well as on
new shoes. They are made by The
