KEOKUK PEOPLE
HOME FROM EAST
Mr.. and Mrs. c. w. Durrett Return
from White Sulphur Springs,
West Va, Were Gone Ten
Days,

Mr. and Mrs c. w. Durrett returned
yesterday from ten days trip to
White Sulphur Springs, West Va, Mr..
Durrett going there as the guest of
the Equitable New York Life Insur-
ance Co., for which he is an agent.
The trip was an unusually pleas
ant one with 600 guests and their
wives in attendance at White Sulphur
Springs, from all over the United
States. There were forty represen-
tatives from Iowa.
Mr. and Mrs. Durrett joined the rest
of the party at Chicago where two
special trains waited to take the in
surance people to their vacation.
White Sulphur Springs is beau
tiful allyear1ound pleasure resort and
many prominent people were there
while the Keokuk people twisted the
place. The resort is located four
miles from the head of the Allegheny
and is rich in natural seen
cry, one of the most interesting things
being the Oregon cave there which
was one of the rendezvous places of
the confederate soldiers during the
civil war. Some of the implements
which the rebel soldiers used in max
ing powder were to be found in the
cave just as the soldiers had left
them.
The summer vacation trip for the
insurance men is an annual affair
Last year they enjoyed trip to New
York City and other places in the
east Mr.. and Mrs. Durrett met some
friends this year whom they had made
upon a former occasion

Medical Examination Shows No Marks
on West Child to Subetantiate

5s Yesterday.
NO TRACE OF THE BOY
BOY OFFER is EXTENDED
All Afternoon and evening Search
Fails to Reveal whereabouts
of John
West.

Mrs. Earl West appeared in the SUI
perior court this morning and changed
the Information filed against John
West from rape to attempted rape.
The change was made after an exam
fination was made OF the little girl by
q Keokuk physician. There were no
marks to indicate that a charge of
rape should be filed, the doctor told
local authorities, and Mrs. West filed
Ia modified charge.
A search of the entire Des Moines
bottom district extending clear to
Alexandria was made yesterday after
noon for John West, but he was not
found by the police. Several clues
were obtained, and followed up, but
the police did not find the young lad
1T was said that he crossed the Des
Moines river bridge last night, and Of
fcers in a taxi went to that place but
found the statement had no founda-
ition
Wilson, together with others, searched
every bit of the Des Moines. river dis
itrict yesterday afternoon but failed to
find any trace of the boy. At one
time the chief was told that the boy
was fishing up the river, and he beat
1t through the willows for long dis
itance but found no. one at the point
designated.
Police officials said that Mrs. West
should not have filed charge of rape
without knowing that such charge
could be sustained. Had the boy
been picked up by posse it might
have resulted in a lynching. The
boy is reported to be not mentally
sound. Medical examination today
revealed the fact that if he is guilty
lof any offense it is only that of at
tempted rape.

Another large crowd of Keokuk and

1t is a mistake to continually dose
yourself with so-called laxative pills,

purging will be unnecessary? You

Delay in concluding a treaty OF
peace, either for individual or politi-
cal reasons, was characterized as "a
crime against civilization" in resolu-
tons adopted by the Executive Coun-
Gil, American Bankers Association.
The bankers declared that the flu
ture wellbeing Of the United States
as we'll as the welfare Of the world
depended on the resumption, with all
possible speed, of peace time condi-
tons, which cannot be accomplished
until terms of the treaty have been
agreed upon.
The associations attitude toward
labor was described as being "a fair
return for services rendered." but 1t
was asserted that through present
tactics '1abor in effect is striking at
itself and not at capital"
Legislation was urged which would
prevent a well organized minority |
from interfering with the rights of
the majority, profiteering being de-
nounced as "an expression of self
ish minority that must be sternly
checked"
The financing Of the soldier relief
by retroactive taxes was de-
clared to be unsound, in the opinion
of the council. which recommended
that payments to veterans should be
made over a period of from two to
ten years.

sales tax to replace the present ex
cess profits tax and early appoint

railroad relief might be quickly pro-
vided under the Esch Act, were

FREE SPEECH

One hearas a lot regarding the
freedom of speech these days
The agitator who is trying to pull
down what we have erected by
the toll of ages is constantly in
sisting that free speech is assail-
ed and in danger.
The point that needs bringing
out is that free speech is the
right of every man and woman
provided that he or she does not
assail that bulwark of our nation
al safety-our Constitution.
When that is assailed, then it
is time that free speech wasa cur
tailed. Those of US who have
toiled to build up the great Am
erican nation do not look with
kindly glance upon those efforts
to demolish it, and we are pre-
pared to prevent it demolition.
Free speech is all very we'll, but
1t must never go too far.

1t has been stated that the

is a great deal Of truth in this
statement. We are as a nation. ex

there is lots and lots of room for
improvement. A good housewife
only recently said to us: l have

1t is charged that as a nation
we are an orgy of extravaganza.

AZ a nation, too, we have come to
a realization Of our shortcomings
in this respect, and that we are
now on the improvement trend.
1t is needed; it is high time. One
OF the surest ways to become in
