Don't Belong to any Church.


A church canvass of Allamakeo
and Winneshiek counties discloses
the fact that from sixty to eighty
per cent of the people of these coun-
ties belong to no church. This leads
to the question is there something
wrong with the church, or with the
people? Or do we need one big
healthy Community church, where
all may worship, instead of num-
Der of weak denominational organi-
cations which have to keep up a con-
slant struggle for a bare existence?
If citizen of Postville desires to go
to Chicago, it don't matter a whoop
whether he takes the Rock Island or
goes over the Milwaukee. Likewise
If the said citizen has Heaven as his
objective, what difference does it
make to him, so long as he arrives
whether he goes over the Methodist,
Congregational, Roman Catholic, or
Lutheran route? It's a dead cinch
that the house not made with hands
is not an apartment house with flats
for the different creeds to be segre-
gated in.-Postville Herald.

Identity Of Men
Behind Recall Plan
Still Is Mystery

While the identity of the men be-
hind the petitions to recall Mayor
Paine and Commissioners Edgar, Allen,
Shannon and Johnson still remained
shrouded in mystery Thursday, a busy
little. petition circulator started the ball
to rolling In the railroad ward" Of
Memphis--the Thirteenth One of the
petitions eas left with the proprietor
of store near the corner of McLe-
more avenue and Rayburn boulevar l..
A railroad man Is understood to have
left the petition.
Political circles were buzzing with
talk of the recall Thursday. Dopesters
were busy figuring just how many votes
would be cast for the recall and against
II.
It Is understood that the plan Of rhe
men behind the recall is to keep, heir
identity dark until 5000 names bave
been obtained on the 25 petitions which
are reported to be circulating in diff
ferent sections OF the city at present.
The allegations made regarding the
handling of the garbage question, the
administration of the fire department
and the police department generally
were regarded as the strongest links
in the chain Of charges set out in the
petitions. IL is because Of dissatisfac
tion over these that the petition cir
culators hope to obtain the requisite
number OF signatures in few days.
