Limitation of Armament Conference
To Be Held at Des MOines
Ocfoher 2Sth

There is constant cry going up
over the land from the excessive
burdens of taxation. Some farm or
CARNATIONS are condemning the ex-
penditure of funds to maintain the
State Highway Commissioners,
County Engineers, County Agricul-
tural Agents, and Red Cross Nurses.
We feel, however, that if we could
make concerted effort leading to
as nearly as possible complete dis
armament and the money now spent
on wars divert it some constructive
rather than destructive channel, our
progress could go on unhampered
and the immense burden of taxes
could be relieved. We don't like
the term Limitation of Armament
That might mean anywhere from a
billion dollars on up and still be a

JUSTICE COURT WORK
Signs of the Times Seem to Point
To Revival of Justice
Court Litigation.

Attorney NJ. ]. Carter was in Cler-
mont Monday, representing defen-
dants in two cases before F. X.
White, justice of the peace. One
case was tried before the court but a
decision will not be announced until
next Monday. In the other case the
defendant filed demurrer, which, if
sustained, will settle the case in
favor of the defendant; otherwise
the case will be tried on its merits.
w. W. Comstock of West Union APP
peared for the plaintiffs.
Between 1870 and 1890 were the
banner years for the lawyers in jus
tice court work, hardly day passing
without a trial somewhere in the
county; and among the attorneys
who were engaged on one side or the
other, these names are familiar to
many: The Clarks, father and son;
Cooley, Bulls, Willet, Brown, C. H.
Bulls, Milt H. Allen, Hathaway,
Thompson, Wellington, Baker Broth
ers, Harmon, Faust, Loomis and
Denney, and Carter. Then, also
quite often outside attorneys We're
engaged, among whom were Hatch,
Updegraff, Stoneman, the Quigleys,
Noble, Frazee, Ainsworth, Dayton
and Ziegler, and others.
Button, Burr Oak, Spillville, Fort
Atkinson, Twin Springs, Calmar,
Frankville, Castalia and Ossian were
the trial points in the earlier days.
During the last thirteen years about
five cases have been tried in justice
court in the south half of the county,
by Attorneys M. j. Carter and Ward
NJ. Allen, if memory serves US right.
The sign of the times, however, point
to revival of justice court litiga-
ton, though ever so many of the
side features are numbered with the
things of the past.-Ossian Bee.

County Agent Kills Himself

Estherville, Iowa-C. L. Wygle, %,
county agricultural agent of En-
met county, was found dead at his
desk yesterday noon. Death resulted
instantly from a bullet wound in
the head, fred by his own hand. A
note was found on the desk before
him, bidding goodbye to his mother
Mrs. Lem Wygle, of GAINESVILLE, Ia,
and his sweetheart. No indications
leading to the tragedy had been no
ticed by friends or associates and
Encouragement in his work is be-
lieved to have prompted the deed.
He was of excellent character, high
ly esteemed and very efficient and
successful in his work. His folks,
who live at GAINESVILLE, have taken
the remains TO the old home at
GAINESVILLE for interment. Services
were held from the undertaking par

Base Ball Team short $4,000

We note by the New Hampton
Tribune that the New Hampton base
ball team went in the hole $4,000
this season, and are going to give
away a Ford car to raise money on
the deficit. The Tribune has the
following to say:
A meeting of the guarantors of
the New Hampton Baseball Associa-
ton was called to meet at the State
Bank Thursday evening. Twenty
men appeared.
j. K. Carmen was made chairman
and H. L. Hettler secretary.
The report of the Association
shows that in supplying fun and
amusement for fans, debt of sever
al thousand has been created.
The good fellows present discussed
many ways of trying to make up the
deficit and finally decided to buy a
nice, perfectly respectable and brand
new Ford automobile and with this
popular car raise the $4,000 required.
Are you on? If not come on take
ride. Surely you want to be count
ed as a good fellow. The money
must be raised so We will have to
stop scolding and shell out the cash.
Maybe Cresco, Charles City and
Oelwein won't help much so the fell
lows here must do little more.
Now altogether. Let's get the

This Farmer Won't Give Two Bushels
of Corn For Haircut.

Eldora, Iowa-With corn bringing
on the open market only 20 cents
per bushel, and other products of the
farm not much in excess of that
amount, complaints are frequently
heard of the price of haircuts in the
towns of the county. One farmer said
that he would permit his hair to
grow until it became long enough to
braid before he would give over two
bushels of corn to have a barber in
town cut it.

Stability Of Home
 Rests On Sanctity
 Of Marriage Vow

At the mission being given by the Paulist Fathers at the Sacred church last evening, Father Kennedy spoke on Marriage and Divorce" That this subject is one of living interest to many non-CatholicS was made evil dent by the large congregation which listened with great attention to the words of the speaker.
 After proving that the stability and sanctity of the home depended en- tirely on the stability and sanctity of the marriage VOW. Father Kennedy spoke the temporal and spiritual evils of divorce.
 Divorce he said, "'is recognized by all thinking men, as one of the greatest social and religious evils of the day. Our own beloved country of America, has the proud distinction if 1t may be called a. distinction, of rivaIing pagan Japan in the number of it's divorces. Divorce is like a. giant demon who goes about leaving ruin and destruction in- his path Wherever he breathes, he pollutes the atmosphere with the stench of mmorality-wherever he trods, he crunches the home-wherever his voice is heard, little children are sent as wanderers out in the world without that love, guidance and protection which can only come where there is paterna1 and maternal love and care.
 'sThe statistics of divorce in the United States are simply appalling. By leaps and bounds they have grown It is a conservative statement to say that one marriage in ten ends in di- yorce and the end is not yet If it continues at the rate it is going, we shall soon be a nation of free-loverS.
