Trusts are the result of prosperity and not the result of any "egislative The Trusts. Take the tariff off of steel and it would not weaken the great steel trust but would strengthen it.

Because Republicans claim that Gov ernor Haskell also wrote campaign po etry, the Knoxvllle Express concludes that they want to provoke a lynching. Well? Wouldn't that be punishment fitting the crime? An independent canvass of New York results in the announcement that "only a political convulsion or revolution" could shake Taft's hold on the state. Happily neither of these is in prospect. Senator Hemenway of Indiana says that state is safe for Taft by 25,000. Elimination of the local option issue has spoiled Democratic chances of suc cess.

An addi tional verse has since been furnished by the Muscatine Journal, as follows: storms That's a mighty long time.) "Raymond," the Chicago Tribune correspondent, who accompanied Judge Taft on his recent western speaking tour, says in that paper that the general report of local leaders ev erywhere was that the great issue in this campaign is the question of the continuance of prosperity. Voters are convinced that if Bryan should be telected President, with his long rec ord of political vagaries, the result would be a loss of confidence on the part of the moneyed interests, and this in turn would mean, of course, the shutting down of mills, a reduc tion of wages, a shortening of the hours of labor, and finally a decreased market for farm products. This argu ment was advanced and emphasized I at every stopping place along the G,- 000 mi]es of Mr Tafts rap)d journey j* as the one reason why the people were sticking close to Republicanism. Tak ing his cue from these reports, Judge Taft in his speeches constantly pound ed at the idea that the country suf fered by the Wilson-Gorman bill and prospered under the Dingley bill.

HE MADE A BIG HAUL It Was Thought That the Man Wanted Might Have Come up to Keo kuk to See the Celebra tion. Two Qulncy police officers were In Keokuk yesterday afternoon and spent the entire afternoon on Main street among the crowd trying to locate a hotel thief. Officer Holliday accompanied thera on their trips up and down Main etreet, but they were unsuccessful and departed for home last evening with out having got a glimpse of the crook. The Herald tells of the hotel tliief, as follows: Bunch of Keys. Quincy entertained a real hotel thief last night, not one of the cheap fellows who use brace and bit to gain entrance, but one of the slick and smooth ducks who carry skeleton keys and fine-drawn pincers with which to turn keys that are in the locks and so unfasten locked doors from the outside. It is known that this thief was thus equipped for his business, because he left a bunch of a dozen of the keys, pincers and other tools in a toilet room at the St. James hotel, where they were found and turned over to the police depart ment. The thief entered a room In the St James hotel about 4:30 this morning and from a pocket of the clothing of Edward Riley, a guest from Mount Pleasant, Iowa, abstracted a purse, took from it the $50 in cash it ron tained and replaced the puse in the pocket. Mr. Riley was akawened by the slight "noise made bv the tnlef, anq saw him leave the room. Ke in formed the night clerk that hs had been robbed and the police were no tified. The supposition is that fear ing he might be captured the thief Flipped into the toilet room, dropped tf-.c keys that would in themselves nave incriminated him if found on The Stomach Does Not Gause Dyspepsia Neither Will it Cure it Because Lack of Gastric Juices i, Prohibit Relief. it has not the tools with which to work! ^successfully. The gastric juices when in a perfect state do away with all four odors, fer mentation and decay, reduce the food to a disintegrated mass and the stom- ach then presses it into the intestines! •lng and give it to the blood. The waste matter is thrown from the sys tem. If instead of nourishment the In testines receive impure deposits com bined with a poisonous and Imperfect gastric juice, it can be readily seen that they must turn such imperfect nourishment into the blood. The biood then being unable to give each part of the body that which it requires, becomes impoverished and disease is spread broadcast. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets corrects! Meat, grains, fluids, vegetables and delicacies, in fact each portion of a large meal have been placed In a glass vial and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have digested them to a perfect fluid just as a healthy stomach would do. A large complex, hearty meal holds no terrors for a dyspeptic if Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are used. Abnormal eating, late dinners, rich foods cause ill effects to the stomach, but when Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are used one may eat when and what one will without danger of yspepsia or iscom fort.

Miss Louise Westphal, of 233 Locust street, Dubuque, Iowa, says: "A few years ago I was in a very weakened condition, one that is common to many growing girls. I was nervous, lost weight, had a poor complexion and no appetite. I was completely run down and had no ambition at all. For months I was under a doctor's care but nothing helped me and my friends thought I was going into consumption. I had been sick about a year when Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were recommended to me. After taking three boxes I obtained relief and several more cured mc. The sallow complexion disappeared, I had a good appetite once more and am now strong and healthy in every way."

Getting up out of bed with the lum bago and coming down to Keokuk to make a speech for the Odd Follows yesterday, Past Grand Master W. A. Church of Jefferson, thought that it showed that he appreciated the Invi tation. He stated that If anyone re membered what Sherman said war was, they would know what lumbago was like. He made a very Interesting address yesterday afternoon at the market grounds where the exercises were held following the parade on Main street. At the start, he did not con fine himself to the order but spoke on other matters and thought it proper that between the two political days should be sandwiched the rich old ham which runs between the country. As a judge on the bench for six teen years, he asked that the people be not so free and eager to sign par don applications for criminals who had been convicted. He sal^ that in Iowa you will find more men of brains and women of standard virtue than in the boasted states of the west which spend great sums to advertise their beauties.

LAST 1 NIGHT'S CROWDS The Biggest Evening Attendance of the Week and Side Shows Did a Land Office Busi- 1 ness. -r Weather conditions were excellent again today for the free fall celebra tion and another big crowd is on Main street this afternoon taking in the sights. The usual daily program was given and each act seemed better than- be fore and held the attention of the crowds which surronuded the plat forms. Crowds of visitors arrived on every train and there were many strangers in the city again today. In the morning, the five bands play ed on the street and the regular pro gram began after dinner. The speak ing at the park in the morning by Hon. Wesley L. Jones of Washington state was a feature of the day and many of the visitors went out to hear the ad dress. Tomorrow will be the last day of the celebration, which will close at 10:30 o'clock at night when Captain Strahl lands In his net at Ninth and Main. Last Night. The biggest evening crowd of the week was out last night when Main street was crowded with people who went from one platform to the next one and witnessed the free attractions. The pay shows were all doing a land office business last evening and play ing to crowded houses. ..e people who had been to these shows before, had spread the news that they were all first class and at each performance there was a big rush for tickets. The Ferris wheel was humming all evening with a full cargo and Gypsie, the big elephant, carried many a load of sight seekers up and down through the crowd. It was a profitable even ing for the various concessions and everybody was pleased with what at tractions they had to pay to see. Many of the Odd Fellows who came to attend the convention, stayed over during the evening and a great many of the visitors who arrived during the day, were on the street during the evening. The balloon ascension yesterday evening took place shortly before 6 o'clock and was the best one yet. The parachute leap was made from high in the sky and the artist landed at Elev neth and Des Moines street, his bal loon coming down at Tenth and Car roll. The crowd on the street is more or derly than ever before, but it is a noisy crowd and horns ars in evidence every night. Everybody on the street is In a good humor and so far con duct of the people has been most praiseworthy.

ART EXHIBIT AT WELLS SCHOOL Turner Paintings to be Seen in Keo kuk Friday, October 16th. at Y. M. C. A. An interest in art should be incul cated ln the minds of the children in our schools at an early age and it is necessary for this purpose, to have works of art in the school buildings. The children would then become fa miliar with the inasterworks of art of all ages, and absorb unconsciously, what is true and good and beautiful. The walls of many of our school rooms present to the eyes of the pu pils, and hence to their minds, only bareness, whereas, with suitable dec oration, they would be made to convey a sense of comfort to better work, and to inspire the thought when the eyes wander from the lesson page—as they will. The plan of giving our children a more comprehensive idea of the value of good pictures can be furthered in no better manner than by means of the Horace K. Turner Art which will be on exhibition in the lecture room of the Y. M. C.

There was an excellent attraction at the opera house last evening when "Tempest and Sunshine" was given by a clever company, but owing to the excitement of the celebration on Main street, the audience was very small one. Those who attended were given a treat. The coroner's inquest was held this morning at 8 o'clock over the death of E. L. Hendricks. The jury composed of Ed Monogue, Charles OfE and Henry Pechstein, after hearing the testimony, found a verdict that the deceased came to his death by his own' hand while temporarily insane. Chris.

The drivers of vehicles through Main street this morning had to pro ceed with great caution as the fog was very dense and it was impossible to see in advance for more than fifty feet. Not a single case of pocket picking has been reported to the city marshal so far during this week, which is some thing rather remarkable for a cele bration of this kind. Sneak thieves entered the residence of F. A. Wedler Wednesday evening while the family were down seeing the sights and robbed the place of everything of value, including a num ber of watches and other jewelry. Last evening at 6:15 some of the street decorations near the corner of Fourth street, got on fire from the elec tric wires and blazed up merrily. The department was called out and the blaze was extinguished before the street fair burned up. The damage was but slight. Out of the thirty families in Keokuk taken care of by the superintendent of the poor, but eight of them are color ed families and last winter there were but six colored families under his care. This is a good showing for the colored people of Keokuk where their popula tion is such a large proportion of the city's people. One of the negroes who had his head in the hole of one of the ball throwing racks yesterday afternoon was hit several times by a number of persons throwing the balls at his head. The fellow became disgusted with his job of being a target for the public to throw base balls at three for a nickle that he quit and demanded his money. It will be of interest to Scandinav ian people that the Rev. L. Hagen, who will give sketches of "Norwegian Life and Customs" at the Evangelical song services and missions festival, is a native of Norway. Rev.

The superiority of the Gate City's telegraph service was no better shown than the full report last evening of the base ball game at New York City, the world's greatest game up to this time. The United Press report was the only complete and full one received by any evening papers around in this part of the country and as usual, the Gate City gave Its readers the best of it. The reason why the balloon ascen sions by Lee Planet are such great success this week is because his bal loon is made out of old tympan sheets from newspaper offices. The tympan sheet is a cloth part of a printing press upon which the type is impress ed and the big baloon is formed of these sheets, the sections showing where pages of a newspaper had been printed.
