EIGHTH STREET

The muddle on Eighth street
seems as far from solution as ever,
with the usual result-thc property
owners holding the sack. There
should never have been an extern
sion of the contract, even by impli-
cation. Now. however, that a prac-
teal extension has been given, there
is no apparent outlet for the prop
erty owners but to bow to the un-
fortunate condition that has arisen
by hasty and ill-considered legisla-
ton. The fact that part of the con-
tract has been undertaken, even
after the council first forbid it and
later extended the time of COM
mencing operations to April first,
raises a legal question as to liza
bility for damages that makes it a
too hazardous undertaking for the
property owners to enjoin further
prosecution of the work.
But they should not be made TO
suffer for the neglect. The paving
company should now be compelled
to prosecute the work to a point
where relief from the mud of past
winters may be assured.
The city should insist upon the
grading and rolling of the street and

At the Theatres

One OF the chief arguments use'
by opponents OF the movement to'

! Ia based upon the objection to WON
on being compelled, in the event OF
the jurors being locked up for tn,

male jurors. Advocates of women
jury service, however, come forward
with plans and suggestions that
would obviate this difficulty.
Already in six States of the Tn.

State. where at present no such eli
gibility exists, n bill has been drawn
up for the legislative body ut Al

Farm Help Scarce; Wages to be I'll. gh


Ames, Ia.-Indications point to
shortage of farm help in Iowa this
year A careful survey of farm labor
conditions over Iowa by w. ].
Gutherie, farm help specialist of the
agricultural extension forces, of Iowa
state college, show that nineteen
counties are already asking for from
eight to Is farm laborers, including
married and unmarried men.
Investigation begun about the mid
die of January and extending to about
March 20 shows the average demand
for single farm hands to be about
10 per cent; for, married farm hands
about 8 per cent The prevailing
wage for single men ranges from
$50 to $50. One county reported the
minimum at $40 and three counties
at $45. The average wage for mar
riad men was found to be from $50
to $40. These figures are secured
from county agents and bankers and
farmers, who are in position to pass
intelligent judgement on the subject.
Investigation by Mr.. Gutherie
shows that the highest top wage now
being paid a married man for farm
work is in Ida county, where one
gets 500. The highest price paid
a single man in that same county is
$50. Sioux county is paying one
married man $50. The average, how
ever, will show from $40 to $65.

You have very nicely cited about the
example the railroads have given us
about the narrow tracks first and the
wood burning engines. Why not profit
by their lesson and start the right
way, You are talking about gravel
ing the roads. Good Lord bless us,
would you call that good roads. I
say that would be wasting time,
money and material and we would
still have our mud holes and nothing
else The state of Iowa is certainly
one of the greatest in the union and

AuTOES HELD 1880 PINTS.
Two Cars Niired Near Iowa Falls
Contained Much Whiskey.

Iowa Falls,-Possibly the solving
of the state vile organization of
"bootleggers" in Iowa will be ac-
complished upon definite informa-
ton brought TO light Wednesday
night when two automobiles became
stuck in the mud five miles south of
this city on the Jefferson Highway.
The investigation Of farmer who
was called from his bed about mid
night by the cries for help from the
drivers is responsible for bringing to
view the startling information that
the two machines contained $500
pints of whiskey. The assignment
was being taken to Des Mofnes from
Minnesota.
The whiskey was secreted in fake
bottoms and gas tanks in the two
cars, and was found only upon in
vestigation.
It has been learned that these two
machines make regular trips between
vi iAhOoOta diiu 1So -iolheo, Travelling
only at night and hiding their auto
mobiles during the day time in
barns especially placed along the
route for this purpose. They never
enter a town always taking the roads
leading around them.
State officials are deeply concern
ed in the case and are confident
that it will only be a matter of time
before the organization of "boot-
leggers" in Iowa will be abolished.
