VOLUME THIRTY-FOUR. "c: Osteopath Shot at Eldora By Edward Nuckolls Probably ill Get Well BULLET^ MISSED THE LUNG A—— ^Indignant Husband's Aim Was Too High No Arrest Made, and It Is Not Believed There Will Be One— No Sympathy Felt for the Wounded Man. Special to Times-Republicaw. Eldora, April 10—Dr. H. W. Emeny, 'the osteopath physician who was shot early yesterday morning 1% Edward Nuckolls, while making a night call at the Nuckolls home, is holding his own *t the Morse hospital. It is now believed that, he will recover from the wound, -unless complications develop. The revolver used by Nuckolls was a 44 caliber, and the bullet which took .effect passed entirely thru Em eny's foody. It entered the left breast and Just missed the lung. It is pre sumed that the first shot flred by Nuckolls took effect. Nuckolls fired at close range when Emeny appeared at his home the second time. Emeny had rapped for admission, believing that Nuckolls had remained at the store for the balance of the night. Nuckolls threw the door open and fired. The was running away and did not take other shots were flred while Emeny Public sentiment is entirely against Emeny, and it is not believed that Nuckolls will be prosecuted, as the circumstances that would be developed in a trial would not be to the credit of the wounded man. R008EVELT WILL APPROVE. Senate at Last Passes New Employ ers' Liability Bill. Washington, D. C., April 10.—The senate late yesterday afternoon passed the employers' liability bill as it came from the licuse. The measure, which was introduced in the house by Rep resentative Sterling of Illinois, now goes to President Roosevelt, and it will receive his approval at once. The new act is to take the place of the one which was declared unconsti tutional by the supreme court In Jan uary. That tribunal took the ground that the old law, being addressed to all common carriers engaged in inter state commerce business at any time, and imposing liabilities upon them, was outside the power of cohgress. The court held in brief that merely be cause a'railroad at some time did an interstate business it did not necessar ily come under the control of federal authority. The new law, which will soon go into effect, was drawn to meet this objection. Provision Is made in the new law that railroads shall become responsible "while engaged in" interstate com merce. Lawyers understand pretty well what the employers' liability bill is in tended to do, but the general public, including many labor leaders, have been much at sea on this subject. The new law is necessary to modify the principle which grew up in England, Where it was first enunciated in 1S37, •nd where it became part of the com mon law of that kingdom. It was held In the courts here as a part of the general common law, altho it mani festly grew out of class relations in Great Britain which really do not ex ist here. Whether it was justified in the first place, it is quite certain that modern conditions of employment have rendered necessary the repeal by stat ute of whar. is known as the "fellow servant" principle of the English com mon law. This theory was .that an employer was not responsible for damages when the injury was caused by the negli gence of an other employe. The theory of the law was that if two men wero working side by side it was the duty each to guard himself against the Littlefield Bill Discussed. Washington, April 10.—Arguments against the legality and expediency of the Littlefield bill and similar meas ures, to extend federal aid to the en forcement of the state, county, and municipal local prohibition laws, were made today before the house commit tee on judiciary by Representative Bartholdt. of Missouri. "1 want to say here and now. and wit hunt tear of successful contradiction." said Baj- tlioldt, "that the federal law which our prohibition friends are urging us to enact. Is absolutely unnecessary, of the states themselves will honestly enforce their own prohibition laws, and 1 as sert further that it Is just because of their non-enforcement, that friends of prohibition come here to Invoke the aid «f congress. It mav be arsnied that an enormous police farce In states negligence of the other, or to stop work fjciai Gazette, issued today, contains and notify his employer.

All Condemn Aldrich Bill. Washington, April 10.—Victor Mora wetz, chairman of the executive board of the Santa Fe railroad, Emory W. Clark, vice president of the First Na tional Hank of Detroit, and Frank Dale LaLanne, representative of the Phila delphia board of trade, appeared before the house committee on banking and currency today, and all condemned the Aldrich bill, and gave many reasons why they did not think it should be come a law. House Debate Closes Tomorrow. Washington, April 10.—The house to day began the consideration of the naval appropriation bill. The debate will close tomorrow afternoon. Anti-Race Track Bill Reported. Washington, April 10—The sub-com mittee of the senate committee on the District of Columbia today made a favorable report on the house bill to prohibit betting at the Benning race track. Public Printer for Philippines. Washington April !0.—James A. Hoggsette has been elected to succeed John S. Leech as public printer in the Philippine Islands. Hoggsette is a native of Nebraska, about 32 years old, anil has been connected with the Ma nila office for some time. WANT FREE WHEAT. National Millers Favor Removal of Duty on Grain Milled for Export. Chicago, April 10.—At the conven tion of the Millers' National Federa tion today, it was decided to charge purchasers who allow their product to remain in the warehouses of sellers more than thirty days a carrying! charge of a cents per barrel. The fed eration also declared in favor of a maximum and minimum tariff, and passed a resolution declaring that in lieu of payment of duties assessible by law of wheat imported Into the United States, wheat flour equal In value to that of wheat may be deposited in bond and the wheat released from payment of duty. Flour so deposited is not to be removed except for export free of duty, or for domestic consump tion upon payment of duties equal to the amount which would have been levied on the wheat. The passage of this resolution was attended by con siderable debate. TIMBER CUT LIGHTER. Annual Log Drives Soon to Start on Upper Michigan Rivers. Negaunee, Alich., April 10.—With the ice moving out it will not be long be fore the annual log drives are in prog ress on the Menominee, Ontonagon and other rivers of upper Michigan. The cut of timber the past -winter was lighter than usual. The drive on the Menominee and its tributaries will amount to about 60,000,000 feet. Twen ty-two years ago, or in 1SS6, no less than 643,000,000 feet of logs were moved down the Menominee. The enormous falling off since that time gives ample testimony to the deca dence of the Lake Superior lumbering industry. Largely because of depressed market conditions, it is estimated that the cut of timber at the upper Michi gan mills this season, will show a de crease of 25 per cent from that of last year. CARLETON REOPENS. Northfield Free From Smallpox—Vaca tion Days at St. Olaf. Northfield, Minn., April 10.—Carle ton College reopened Wednesday with a full attendance. President Sallman announced that Northfield is abso lutely free from smallpox and only two students are temporarily absent on account of the disease. Mayor Hor ace Goodhue, the former dean of the college, who occupied a seat upon the college platform, received a warm greeting. St. Olaf has closed for the spring recess. President Kildahl announced that, beginning with next year, the semester system would take the place of the present three-term plan. CHINESE INCENDIARIES BUSY.

Boston, April 16.—The platform adopted by the republican state con vention today highly praises Roose velt's administration, endorses Gov ernor Guild for the vice presidency and favors revision of the tariff to meet changed conditions without "abandon ing the protective principle." The platform states that while a large num ber of delegates are in favor of Taft for president, it is deemed unwise to indorse any particular candidate be cause it would undoubtedly lead to a contest that might ibe injurious to the welfare of the party. Postmaster General Meyer was temporary chair man. In assuming the chair he de livered a lengthy address. The first mention of the name of Taft in the. resolutions was so vocif erously applauded and cheered that the reader was forced to go back to the beginning paragraph and repeat the words. The committee's statement that it considered it unwise to incorporate a Taft preference in the resolution in the platform was also loudly applaud ed. Senators Lodge and Crane, former Secretary of the Navy John D. Long, and Sidney O. Bigney, of Attleboro. were elected delegates-at-large to the national convention. New York for Hughes. New York, April 10.—The four dele gates-at-large to the national conven tion. to be elected at the state con vention to be held in Carnegie hall to morrow, iJV.all probability will be in structed to vote for Hughes for the presidency. The delegates agreed upon, according to the program of the lead ers, are General Stewart L. Woodford, former Mayor Seth Low. E. H. Butler and F. R. Hazzard, all friends of Hughes. JOHNSON AT SHIL0H Minnesota Governor Speaks at Dedi­ cation of Monument Erected on Bat tlefield in Honor of State Veterans. Shiloh Battlefield, Tenn., April 10.— Governor Johnson, of Minnesota, made the principal speech today at the ded ication of the monument erected to the memory of Minnesota soldiers who fell on that battlefield. Governor Johnson, in closing his address, said: "Our government Is divided into three separate and distinct co-ordinate branches the legislative, the execu tive and the judicial. Danger will sure ly come to this republic when any of these departments of government at tempt in the slightest degree to usurp the functions otf the other, and while now and then it may be that a court of the land, in construing the consti tution, may nullify a .section of it, I have the faitli to feel that the people of the country will rise above the fall ibility of judicial tribunals and assert Many and preserve their own rights. Our duty is not to criticize the executive, the legislature or the judiciary. Our duty is to recognize the majesty of the flaw when enacted by the legislature to abide hy and with the honest exe cution and administration of the laws when so enacted, and to respect, even tho wrong, the opinions of the courts of the land, "because when respect for these institutions is gone, then the very framework of our government is bound to crumble and decay. But having thus given our acquiescence to the voice of authority, if in the opin ion of the people the action taken is one which should not be exercised by that particular department, it is our inalienable right to so further limit its power as to prevent the recurrence of the error. Very recently there has come from the highest judicial tribunal in the land a decision of vital interest and concern to the American people, because it has established a principle, as stated ihv one member of the court, al courts to supervise and control the official action of the states as tho thev were dependencies or provisions.' It would place the states of the union in a. condition of Inferiority never I dri-anii-d of when llie constitution was ,'idiMtr'd or when the eleyi-nth amend- nif-nt was made part of the supreme Maw of the land.' If tins is the rule I I lukv of the land. It tins Is the result of this decision. It Is. to my mind, one I of the unhappv incidents In the history mf our republic, because the very the ory of our government is based upon the right of ihe s'-iics in control abso lutely their own (l i-nestu- affairs. II. then, our whole svstem of gov ernment is chanered. havo wp not only retarded the progress ot the republic, MAlISHAX.LTOWJf, IOWA, FRIDAY, APRIL 10 1908 but have we not gone back a century toward a centralized form of govern ment which is not to the advantage of the people? What this government needs is not more power. What it needs today is to so distribute the privileges under the government that all citizens will have equal opportun ity. America has been called the land of opportunity. But American oppor tunity should not mean a granting of special privileges to any class, but should alt'ord all alike the means for culture, education, prosperity and con tentment. "For nearly a century and a half America has presented to the world the spectacle of a happy, prosperous and intelligent people, maintaining a Vure democracy founded upon their supreme will. The hallmark of dem ocracy Is that the powers of govern ment are close to the people. Thru out the world, wherever democracy is advancing, ils progress is marked by a greater measure of self-government to each community. Will the Ameri can people turn to the setting rather than the rising sun? Shall we now, because some laws are found irksome by a class and interfere with their sel fish aims, commence to deprive our sovereign states of that measure of home rule which until now they have seen lit to reserve to themselves? I cannot believe it. Upon the contrary, I believe that the limitations upon state and federal governments and of the different departments in cach, which have been so efficacious in the past, will be maintained in their full vigor in the future. "Therefore, discharging all of our responsibilities as citizens of a coun try, refusing to surrender our rights of citizenship in any degree, let us so live that heroism exemplified on this and other American battlefields may not be simply a tradition, and the national wisdom of our forefathers a mere legend, but that thru us and those to come America will reach her full destiny in the permanent estab lishment of a perfect union, which shall be not for today nor tomorrow, but forever, and be so established that it will be for all of the people, and that their government shall not perish." CITY IS THREATENED Plot Reported to Burn Guthrie and Assassinate Governor Haskell and Police Chief. Muskogee, Okla., April 10.—A threat ening letter was received here today addressed to the New Guthrie State Tribune, in which the writer asserts that Governor Charles N. Haskell and Bud Ledbetter, chief of police' of Mus ikogee, are to be assassinated and the city of Guthrie burned 'by negroes. The letter was unsigned. FOR BLOODLESS EASTER.

Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, April 10.—Senator Dol liver will not get actively into the po litical game in Iowa this year for Sen ator Allison. If he comes to Iowa to speak at all. It will be late in the campaign, and lie will make but one or two speeches, and these will be in the sections of the state where the Al lison sentiment is strong, rather than in those sections where the Cumiplns sentiment is strong. He will not speak in Fort Dodge, his home city, nor in northwestern Iowa. The fact is that the "handwriting on the wall" is becoming apparent to many of the standpat politicians. When Senator Macomber spoke in Fort Dodge in eulogy of Senator Al lison. and was given a demonstration of the audience that indicated very clearly that they were for Cummins for senator and resented any attempt to cram Allison down their throats, it was a hint to Dolliver that was broa:l and strong.

Ryan's testimony in the Well dam age suit for $300 in the Seventh Mu nicipal L'ourt yesterday it appears that the $500,000 which figured in the Wall and Cortlandt street ferries railroad deal went originally to P. A. B. Widen er of Philadelphia. This transaction has been the sub ject of investigation by a special grand Jury. Some of the witnesses in those pro ceedings, it is understood, testified that the $500,000 had gone for campaign purposes in 1900. It appears further from Mr. Ryan's testimony that the $500,000 payment was made in the first instance by the officers of the Metropolitan Securities company. The entire series of transactions in volved in the deal seems, in the light of Mr. Ryan's testimony, to have been as follows: "The officers of the Metropolitan Securities company, in the latter part of 1S99 or the first part of 1900, drew a check for $500,000 in favor of P. A. B. Widener. A few weeks after William C. Whit ney. then the controlling spirit of the Metropolitan, called upon Mr. Ryan, P. A. B. Widener, William L. Elklns, Thomas Dolan, and himself for a loan of $100,000 each, the money to be used for the benefit of the Metropolitan company. Two years late the Metropolitan Se curities company purchased from An thony N. Brady the franchise of the Wall and Cortlandt street ferries rail way for $250,000. Brady received payment in a check for $985,000. From the balance, $715, 000, Mr. Whitney repaid the five indi vidual loans with 5 per cent interest, sending to each, including himself, a check for $111,652.75. Mr. Ryan disclaimed any definite knowledge as to the use to which the money was put, thus disposing of the reports that he had testified before a grand jury that it had been used in the McKinley campaign fund.

Philadelphia, April 10.—Archbishop Ryan declared last night that even if the marriage of Miss Helen Maloney and Arthur Osborne is annulled by the process of 'law, he would not marry her to Samuel Clarkson or any one else, and that the Philadelphia heiress will still have an important bridge to cross 'before she can reach tho plaec whore she may receive the .sanction of the Catholic, church to marry tho young Englishman with whom she eloped 'last year.

Archbishop Ryan said he had not been Etsked to perform the ceremony. "I have not been approached by the family." continued the archbishop. "It is an unfortunate affair and I regret the notoriety it has brought to Marquis Maloney, for whom I have the highest regard."

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE. Best News of the Week is Somewhat More Prompt Collections. New York, April 10.—Dun's review I tomorrow will say: Bank exchanges this week at all the leading cities in the United States, are $1,921,788,000, 33.6 per cent less than a year ago, and 34.4 per cent under the corresponding week of 190G. The loss is very heavy, especially in the east, in the south and at Pacific coast points. In the cen tral west, the loss is generally small, and several cities again report larger exchanges thon in either of the two preceding years. The very large loss at New York City is still due to con ditions in the financial markets, and a much lower volume of security trad ing this year. Outside New York City the loss is very much smaller. For the year to date, as shown in the average daily figures, the .loss has been about 30 per cent, chiefly due to loss at New York, and there is little evidence of improvement in the April figures, as compared with the preceding months. Dispatches to Dun's review indicate an improvement in some directions, com mercially, while in other cases there Is no change, the best news of the week being somewhat more prompt collec tions. _____ BRYAN AT PEORIA RALLY. *1 Will Deliver Political Address at Dem ocratic Meeting.

Spoi-iai to Times-Republican. Dos Moines. April 10.—The Jowa National Bank will at once press to a conclusion its suit against the directors nf the Corning Savings Bank Xor ne glect of their duty in not making prop er examinations of the bank's accounts. They will seek to show that had the directors obeyed the law as to their du ties of inspecting and auditing tho bank's books the forgeries of the pies ident, La Hue, would not have taken place. It was this suit that is pending against the directors tho bank that caused so much interest and brought so many attorneys into the case that was decided by the supreme court this week. It is doubtful if the decision of the'courts the case of taxing state and savings bunks on their capital in vested in government bonds is its im portant as this suit decided by the su­ preme court for a contrary decision would have prevented -the state sav ings banks from buying and selling commercial paper which is one of their sources of considerable income. The Corning bank bought school bonds, city bonds and various kinds of commercial paper and loaned money on notes. Some of these It sold to the Iowa National Bank of Des Moines, which was its correspondent here. It turns out that a considerable amount that was sold tp the Iowa National was forged paper by President La Rue. The question was whether or not th-i Corning bank was to be held respon sible for the payment of .the paper. In all such transactions as the sale of notes by one bank to another the bank selling guarantees the payment of the notes. 'After the Corning bank went defunct suit was instituted to force it to make good these notes. The bank resisted on the claim that tho state taw proyides that savings banks cannot contract liabilities except to their depositors. On the other side it was contended by the Iowa National that the same chapter of the code pro vides that savings banks can buy and sell commercial paper and by making that provision the legislature made it neoessnry for the savings banks to con tract other liabilities. The supreme court took this view of the matter. The decision of the supreme court clears the Tray for action against the directors of the bank and it also clears the banking atmosphere as to the buy ing and soiling of commercial paper. Large c-ity banks are accustomed to investing large amounts of their sur plus in notes and evidences of indebt edness issued by small corporations such as school, township and villages. They buy such paper on the guarantee of the small bank thru which it is pur chased. 'Had the decision of the court been otherwise they would have been forced to stop buying such paper from savings banks for the reason that they coirld -not afford to investigate'" the value of the notes and paper before t"he purchase. Savings banks conse quently would have been cut off from a lucrative source of revenue. H. C.

Such treatment neither prevents nor cures the exces3 of acid, which produces Rheumatism, is still in the blood and the disease can never be cured while the circulation remains saturated with thia irritating, pain* producing uric acid poison. The trouble will shift from place to place, set tling on the nerves and causing pain and inflammation at every exposure or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. When neglected ot improperly treated, Rheumatism becomes chronic and does not depend ttpott climatic conditions to bring on an attack, but remains a constant, painful trouble. S. S. S. drives out Rheumatism by neutralizing and expelling th« excess of acid from the blood. It purifies and invigorates the circulation so that instead of an acid-laden stream, constantly depositing uric acid in tho joints, muscles, nerves and bones, the entire system is nourished and nrado healthy by rich, life-giving blood.

Special to Times-Republican. Independence, April 10.—A horse be longing: to a farmer residing near here has shown good horse sense, and has brought to justice the man who stole it. The animal belongs to J. K. Hen derson and was stolen from the streets of Independence. A stranger, while intoxicated, unhitched the horse and drove over a goodly part of the coun ty, finally winding up in Independence again in the early morning hours. The animal, guided by instinct, took mat ters into its own control, and delivered the stranger to its owner. A neigh awakened the sleeping family, and Mr. Henderson, going into the yard armed, covered the man in side the rig with a revolver, ordered him to help put up the animal, then marched him to the house, telephoned the sheriff and delivered him over to that officer. Mr. Henderson and his daughters drove to Independence in the after noon, hitching the animal on one of the principal streets. tVhen he went to get the rig' to drive home, he found it missijg, but supposed that the girls had driven on ahead. When he waUed home he learned that neither the girls nor the rig had returned. Then he tel ephoned the daughters and the sher iff. Next morning at 4 o'clock the horse came back with the stranger who had driven it away. The stranger was a young man who refused to give his name, saying he was a locomotive engineer out of em ployment. He said he was drunk when he took the rig, and after a night's drive was surprised to find him self back at Independence, his start ing point.

O'Neil for President Club' is Prominent in State Federation Af fairs. Special to Times-Republican. Dubuque, April 10.—After one of the most bitterly contested battles in the history of local clubdom, in which the question of religion was made the paramount issue, Mrs. B. J. O'Neil. a veteran clubwoman of Dubuque, was made the president of the Dubuque Woman's club over Mrs. Eunice Gibbs Allyn, pioneer club worker, author and artist. For the past two weeks two fac tions of the representative club have made a canvass of the town, using ev ery possible intluence to swing the fin al votes for one of the two candidates. Never before in the history of the local club has such a question been brought to bear as that of religion as the organ ization is purely a literary and a philanthropic affair. But with the close of the recent contest a split was made on the question of faith and with a. strenuosity of endeavor that has not been equalled heretofore in the history of the Dubuque Woman's club, the members divided into two factions and a battle royal was waged for su premacy. The meeting of Thursday afternoon was largely attended and up to the fin al moment of the casting of the ballots the decision of the club minority was a question. When the result of the vote was announced the women proved most enthusiastic and It was some time before the meeting wa^ restored to its usual order. The Dubuque Woman's club is one of the largest clubs in Iowa, is a feder ated organization, being influential in the state club life and having in its membership many of the representative women of Dubuque.

Mr. Nelson had been up in North Dakota looking at land he had traded for, when he went out of business here a few months ago.

EASTERN OFFICE J. Shannon, Manager, Brunswick building, New York, N. T. THE CENSUS OF INTELLIGENCE. It can still remain a matter of pride with Iowans to know that the Hawkeyo state along with Nebraska, still stands at the head of the list in th«- matter of education. Iowa, and Nebraska load all the states in education, having only twenty-three illiterates per thousand. Kansas Is next, with Washington. Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, Minnesota. Illinois, Michigan, Colorado, Indiana, Idaho and Wisconsin following in the order named Illinois has forty-two per thousand. The other extreme is represented by Louisiana, which ha.s 385 per thousand. According to the census of 1900, however, 107 persons in every 1,000 in this country were Illiterate, that is to say, they were persons ten years old or older who were unable to write in any language. Thus one person in ev fery nine of ten years and older is il literate. But this compares unfavor ably With England, Scotland or Hol land, where only one person in forty is illiterate. In Switzerland one per­ son in 166 can not Write, in Den mark one in 500, in Sweden and Nor way one in 1,250, and In Germany il literacy: is virtually unknown. The ratio in 1903 among all the army recruits was one in 2.500. and Illiteracy is prob ably less among the German people generally than among these recruits. These facts, as the Journal of Edu cation says, are not such as to give Americans reason for pride. Nor can we excuse ourselves on the ground that we receive great numbers of Immi grants from the less intelligent peoples of Europe, for In many states illiterates of native parentage outnumber those whose parents were born in foreign lands. In the •steite of New York in 1900 there were 18,000 illiterates'of for eign birth, but 2!),000 who were born In this country. Morover, in the large cities, where our foreign born popula tion is most largely congregated, the percentage of illiteracy is lower than in cities of 25,000 or less, and in the' large cities it is no greater than In the country districts. Howevor, if we could eliminate our 9.000.000 of black people from the figures, we would have a better showing in spite of the fact that foreign countries are sending their Illiterates to us to be schooled. r* TEN PER CENT ON SAVINGS. Let us suppose for a moment that 500 wage working and salaried men of Marshalltown should be gathered in a public hall in this city for the pur pose of organizing a Home Building society. They would elect a president, secretary, treasurer and executive, com mittee from among their number with the provision that all officers servi without pay but the executive commit tee would be authorized to hire some one to keep the books of tho society and would buy stationery and office supplies. Everybody would pay an in itiation tee of $2 so as to provide a fund from which to meet incidental ex penses. Everybody would subscribe for shares of the par value of $100 each, payable at the rate of $1 per month, and in a crowd like that at least 1,000 shares would be subscribed for on the spot. When the first month's pay ments had been made the Home Build ing society would have $1,000 to loan to some member. A meeting of the society would then be held and the members would bid on the privilege of borrowing this $1,000 at 6 per cent Interest. Under the rules of the society he would have to own at least ten shares in the society, which would be constantly approach ing maturity at the rate of $1 per month each. He would thus have a $10 interest In the loan which he was going to buy. Suppose he was the highest bidder at a premium of $50, he gets the $1,000 loan at 6 per cent and gives back the $50 on the spot, with a mortgage on the property on which he intends to build. Next month another $1,000 is loaned in the same way. .'f-J'.'-. When shareholders neglect to pay monthly dues on time they will be fined and if they get tired and want to drop out before their shares are fully paid, they will be fined a few dollars for their lack of thrift. These fines and the premium." paid by the members for the loans will all be returned to the shareholders as dividends in addition lo the 6 per cent interest, so that every v. uy Millions. Galumef Baking Powder Ouapllaa *rtth tho Para shareholder would net anywhere from 10 to 14 per cent dividends on the money lie Invests in his Homo Build ing society. There would be no money in a bank to bo tied up in oase of failure, no cash on ha.nd for a. cashier to steal, no bank ing room to pay rent on, no salaries to pay bankers, no .money lying idle In the van 1 In and no danger .of a run on tho deposits. Every dollar would bo loaned at a good rato of Interest on mortgage security and every mortgage would be in process of being paid off at the rate of one per cent a month because, when a member had matured his $1,000 shares, he could release the shares to the socio! and cancel the mortgage. Why have not 500 wage workers and salaried men in Marshalltown gone In to a 10 per cent investment, which beats a savings bank two to one'.' THE FAILURE OF ALLISON'S LEADERSHIP. In another column is reprinted an editorial from the Register and Lead er, which propounds to the Allison press a question wli|ch each news paper must answer in this campaign or be lost. It is not a new ciuestion, but it is a most significant demand coming from publishers who have long cherished personal admiration for Senator Allison greater even than their admiration for Cummins. It is a question which is borne down upon them by the facts of the Iowa situa tion and compels* them to turn from lifelong association to a preference for the leadership of the man in whose personal political fortunes they have been, by lack of association, compar atively indifferent. Will tho Allison press be as honest? For the most part the standpat press has simply ignored the query, realiz ing the danger of even attempting an answer but the Nonpareil, at Council Bluffs, makes a try at it and every voter should read the two articles side by side as they appear on this page. The Nonpareil replies that Allison has always been the real leader of the re publican party and that anything tho party has ever done, eitlier in state or nation, was done under his leadership. Such insipidity demonstrates the utter weakness of the cajse and turns a man away from the argument in disgust. The -Clarinda Herald, an ant I-Cum­ mins and standpat newspaper, admits that It Is "unfortunate" that Allison's frjends have had nothing to do with the reform legislation in Iowa. Tho facts are that during all the time that railroad influence was dominant in Iowa, Senator Allison was content to meet Judge Hubbard and J. W. Blythe at the Auditorium Hotel In Chicago, and receive 'instructions from them as to whom they wanted appointed to fed eral judgeships and as district attorneys or United States marshals in Iowa, Not that he likes that kind of politics, but just as he has been willing to divide authority over national legislation with special interest senators like Aldrich and Elkins "whatever is is the best we can get" with Allison. When the rail roads were the machine he was con tent to be part of it without protest and neither he nor his present friends have ever given arid or encouragement to the fight which has been made in. Iowa to free the party froin Blytho and from Hubbard, from Jim Davis or from Ed Hunter. Topics of the Times The Register and Leader believes that the' primary will settle most of the differences between republicans and asserts that the "mere desire of the railroads to punish Cummins is not enough to warrant a bolt." '-J\~ The Clarinda Herald editor has al ways been opposed to Cummins, but when the governor delivered his cam paign speech in Shenandoah, the Clar inda man listened to it and wrote in his paper the conclusion that the speech was a vote getter. He re marked that it was unfortunate for Al lison that none of his friends could claim credit for leadership in any of Iowa's reform legislation which will give Cummins many hundreds of votes. Bob LaFollette can carry the Wis consin primaries for his own candi dacy, which is more than either Can non or Shaw could do. Village Banker—I'm sorry, but can't lend you any money on tha worthless, run-down farm. SI Haymedder—Wa'al, I guess the only thing left for me ter do is ad vertise it in the city papers as a gen tleman's ideal country estate for sale. It Is encouraging to note that there are now 95,000 separate stockholders in the United States Steel corporation. A large proportion of these bought steel stocks in the last nine months at panic prices. It is estimated that the actual number of steel shareholders is about 125,000, as the names on record represent joint ownership and syndi cates in many cases. Mrs. Dasiiavvay—Yes, while we were In Egypt we visited the pyramids. They were literally covered with hierogly phics. Mrs. Newrich—Ugh! Wasn't you afraid some of 'em would git on you? Tho principal value of the Williams' letter is that it furnishes a subject upon which to make a noise while ig noring the query, "Would we have thrown off railroad domination in Iowa under Allison leadership?" A real estate dealer with something to SPII always seeks a buyer who la known to have something with which 'A Tiiites-^HEjniMicmt,, IttarslTdltmim, foma 10 1308 to buy. By advertising in a newspaper like the Times-Republican he talks to a class of business proprietors and land owners. No newspaper in Iowa reaches a class so largely of high pur chasing power. 'k 4 The frank admission the Clarin da Herald that Allison's friends have stood in the way of all reform legisla tion in Imva, should engage the atten tion of the anti-Cummins press for d:iy or two. Bryan thinks that it is significant of the true state of public, sentiment that Fairbanks should have declared for tariff revision. If the price of meat worries you. plant a garden. Fresh vegetables and fresh fruit for almost six months in the year are possible on every back lot. At least one local conference has recommended to the Methodist general conference the repeal of the article for bidding dancing and card playing. It would serve to modernize the church if this rule were abolished so as to per mit ministers and church members to apply their common sense to personal conduct in these pastimes. fl The supreme court Is disposed to be lieve that statutes which permit cer tain things to be done also contemplate full acceptance of responsibility for the doing. Unless the federal courts inter vene things will come to sucl\ a pass in this state that a man giving a prom issory note will have it to pay. There Is a comrade spirit existing between standpat editors which thrills us with the Inspiration of '61. The Pes Moines capital prints Victor Binder's picture as toastmaster of the Taft ban quet and the Council Bluffs Nonpareil prints Lafc Young's picture as a speak er at the banquet. ''z1'" Senator Hale has probably been reading some of the standpat papers in Iowa. He ^emplains that Taft is not spending enough time at his desk In the secretary of war's office. Howjird Gould's charges against his wife are merely that she has had im proper relations with an actor, gets drunk frequently and swears at th. servants. Such are the blessings of our millionaires. IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES "That the so-called panic was not due to any unsoundness in underlying conditions," argues the Iowa City Cit izen, "is evidenced by the call of the railroads, with the return of spring, for 300,000 laborers to work at the usual repairs, on tracks, bridges, and roadbeds, made necessary by the rav ages of frost and snow.'' Says the Intelligencer at Ames: "The Intelligencer is not worried over who the next governor of Iowa will appoint in case of the death of iSenator Alli son. What worries us is who will be appointed should Senator Cummins die." "What are you going to do Arbor day? It comes this month and can be made mighty useful and1 .many valuable lessons be taught to the school child ren?" asks the Sigourney News "Tariff revision is far from the af finity of Uncle Joe," comments the Spirit Lake Beacon. "The sly old fox is working the same game on Miss Revision that the bankrupt men of titles do on American heiresses." The Star-Clipper at Traer believes that "There is not much sentiment in Tama county in favor of the consoli dated school system or the township central high school. Even the scarcity of teachers does not seem to influence sentiment in that direction to any ex tent. Other counties are moving in that direction and Tama will in time, tho she may bring up the taiiI„of the procession." "Where will Cummins get the votes?" asks the Burlington Hawkeye. "Possibly he won't get them," rejoins the Marion Register. The Sioux City Tribune complains that "a system that can throw a quar ter million of workmen oyt of employ ment, as Is the case with the- miners at the present time, dpes not look good." "With reference to Mr. Good's can didacy, the only thing we have heard 1 There is never a question as to the absolute purity and health fulness ol tood raised with CREAM A pure, cream of tartar powder Its "lame is world wide No alum no phosphate of lime The poisonous nature of alum is so well known that the sale of condiments and whiskey con taining it is prohibited by law.

Is it or is it not 11 fair question to ask when Iowa, would have shaken off tho domination of Mr. Hiythe, and by Air. Blythe we mean railroad control in politics, for that. Is what'Mr. Hiythe has stood for, if the only leadership had been that ol' Senator Allison? There hus been a change in the political atmosphere of lowa. The railroad pass and railroad money have been eliminated. The direct primary has been instituted. The railroads have announced it hat they will here after be common passengers. Mr. Hiythe is merely one among a thou sand men of Influence. Are tiny of these things the result directly or in ilireetiy of Senator Allison's activities? There are two months ito Intervene between now and the time set for naming a l'nited States senator. We should like to put to the Sioux City Fournal, Cedar Rapids Republican. Dos Moines Capital, Burlington Hawk eye. Council Bluffs Nonpareil, Paven lort Times or any other supporter of Senator Allison, these two questions: Has it been worth while to secttr? the reforms we have secured in Iowa? Should wo havo secured these re forms under the leadership of Senator \lllson? If it be answered that Senator Alli son has not busied himself with state iffalrs, let the question be broadened to Include the -men who have stood closest to the senator and who have represented his views In the state. Senator Allison has had a great career. The Register and Leader has been first and foremost In recognizing that. Not one word should be said Mint will make his retirement, if It "omes, a humiliation to him. But Sen ator Allison has 'been a man of con servative instincts. His talent has been fitted to times of steady and peaceful growth. Times of storm ahd stress are not for him, nor for men of his temperament. He would never have led in the reform movement in Iowa, and every intelligent republican In tho state knows it. The Register and Leader has never been a blin follower of Governor Cummins. The Register and Leader admires in Senator Allison some qualities Governor Cummins would be stronger for .possessing. But Gov ernor Cummins has led In this Iowa movement, his talent fits him to .lead .in such movements everywhere, and it is squarely up to the state whether to stand by the older .man, linked more or less closely with a past period, or the younger man aggressive ly In the fight for new conditions and new leadership. It Is easy to find fault with men like LaFollette and Cummins. But who today would gro back to the con ditions in Wisconsin and Towa their leadership has enabled the people to abolish? With all hi® spectacular methods, who would have La Follette out of the United States senate today? Tt will not do while admiring the amia ble qualities of the older men .to forget what wo owe to the -courageous breaking out of the "new lights."

Manifesting a little more spirit than it has been wont lo show In the busi ness heretofore, the Ics Moines Regis ter and Leader comes to the defense and support, of Governor Cummins with a colli:le of posers. The Register and Leader wants to know: Has It In en worth while lo secure the reforms we have secured in lowa? Wouh'f we have secured these re forms under the leadership of Senator Allison'.' Yes, dear brother, it has been well worth while to secure tho reforms we have secured in Iowa. If there is any body who thinks to the contrary, ho has-not been heard from. Those reforms are all right They are very good. They are a valued asset of the people, of the state. Would we have secured these reforms under the leadership of Senator Alli son? Certali ly. we would: and not only we would, but we actually did, for If Senator Alison Is not the leader of public life In Iowa, then pray tell us who Is. The Pes Moines paper seems to have it in mind that somebody else is to be credited with that leadership. To be definite, it assigns the credit to A. B. Cummins. We doubt very much that Cummins had a great deal to do with it. As already stated, the reforms in question are a valued asset I of the people. They were purchased by the people in a hard fought battle. They were not fashioned and handed out as a gift, by Cummins or anybody else, as a bit of ebony might be fashioned and handed out. The people fashioned these reforms in the exercise of their own rights and sentiments. Leaders had very little to do with it, but what ever credit goes to leadership should go to genuine leadership, and not to assumed leadership. Senator Allison has been the foremost man of the state during this season of transformation. True, he bas not tooted his horn much, but he has been there right along. True, he is not now engaged in a strenuous effort to purloin the property of the people, but he is the leader of Iowa republicanism the more, not the less, for that. True, he hasn't the monumental gall of his antagonist, who ia engaged in suchf effort to purloin, but he is not to be overlooked on that account, as will appear when the pri mary vote is cast and counted. This plan of the Cummins forces to appropriate for the benefit of their candidate the assets of -the people is one of the most magnificent exhibi tions of grand larceny on record. The political annals of the state, and pos sibly of the entire country, show noth ing approaching this attempted coup in boldness of conception and undis mayed brass in the effort to execute.

4 Mother of Iowa's Football and Baseball Teams Captain Dies Before Operation HAD BEEN SUFFERER FOR WEEKS Was Taken to Rochester Last Sunday, With Expectation of Having Opera­ tion For Goitre Performed, But End Came Before Patient Could Be Put In Conation—Funeral Here Sunday. Mrs. Sallie Whealen Kirk, wife of J. P. Kirk, of Clemons, ana mother of iCarrol Kirk, captain of tho State University of Iowa foot ball and base ball teams, died at 4:15 Thursday aft ernoon at the Chute sanatorium, Rochester, Minn., of heart failure and exhaustion following an illness of several weeks due to exophthalmic goitre and a complication of diseases, The news of Mrs. Kirk's death will prove a surprise to her many friends here and thruout the couaty, altho those who were with her at Rochester realized Wednesday night that she would never 'live to undergo the ex pected operation. The last word con cerning the patient's condition received here came in a letter from Mrs. Ben jamin Packer Thursday, and while not particularly encouraging, was not alarming. An anemic condition pre vented any immediate use of the sur geon's knife and the patient was un dergoing treatment in order to get her system la shape to withstand the shock. Parents Early Settlers. Mrs. Kirk's parents, Dr. and Mrs. George Whealen, w.ere among the earl iest settlers of this county, Dr. Wheal en 'being the second physician to en gage In the practice of medicine in Marshall county. He settled at Mariet ta in the fall of 1853, and built his own cabin and his own household furniture. His wife was Mary Holmes, a daugh ter of Lot Holmes, and when the cou ple came to Marietta from Columbiana, 0., their daughter Sallie was a babe only a little over a year old. Sallie Whealen was born in Colum biana, O., April 12, 1852, and would have celebrated her 56th anniversary next Sunday—the da.y her funeral Is to be held. She was reared In this county, and when a young woman went to Dakota, where, at Letcher, now in South Dakota, she .became the wife of Joseph P. Kirk, a Marshall county boy, twenty-Ave years ago next May. Mr. and Mrs. Kirk have spent much of their married life in this city, but a few years ago moved to 'Clemons where Mr. Kirk engaged in business. Mrs. Kirk came to this city seven weeks ago, when she began to rapidly fall 1n health, to be with her mother, Mrs. Mary Whealen, 804 North First street. She was there until she was taken to Rochester by her sister, Mrs. Packer, and son Carroll, last Sunday. Mrs. Kirk was a type of the noble •Christian woman, and was a most de voted wife and mother. She was proud of her four manly sons, and the (boys loved their mother, as they Joved no one else. Mrs. Kirk was a member of the Friends church, and for many years was actively Interested in tem perance work, having been secretary of the local W. C. T. U. for along time. Body Brought Here. Mrs. Kirk's body was brought to this city, reaching! here at 4:25 this morning over the Great Western. Mr, Kirk, who was at New Hampton on business when a telegram announcing a change for the worse in bis wife's condition reached him, got to Roches ter before Mrs. Kirk died, and accom panied his son Carroll and 'Mrs. Pack er to the city. The body was taken to the Packer home, 407 North First street Mrs. Kirk is survived in her Im mediate family by her husband and four sons—Cllve Kirk, division store keeper for the Rock Island at Shaw nee, Okla. Carroll Kirk, a junior In the state university George Kirk, of Clemons, and Archie Kirk, a ihigh school student In this city. Aside from her mother and her sister, Mrs. Ben jamin Packer, Mrs. Kirk is also sur vived by three sisters and one brother —Mrs. T. Frank Ball, of Des Moines: Mrs. Fred Phillips, of Northfort, Wash. Miss Mabel Whealen, of this city and W. H. Whealen, of West Seneca, N. Y. Dr. Whealen, Mrs. Kirk's father, died In Marietta town Ship eleven years ago the coming May. Mrs. Kirk's funeral will be held from the Packer home Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Interment will be in the Marietta cemetery. MRS. A. W. WASS DEAD. Former Resident of This City Dies at Madison, Wis.—Burial Here. A telegram received in the city this morning from Madison, Wis., an nounces the death of Mrs. A. W. Wass, formerly a well-known woman of this city, and for many years a prominent member of the Methodist church. Mrs. Ws&s has been in poor health for two years, and for the past month has been steadily growing worse.

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY. New Drug, Poslam, Now Obtainable in Small Quantities. Since Its discovery one year ago, the new drug, Poslam, has successfully cured thousands of chronic cases of eczema and other distressing skin af flictions. 'Heretofore poslam has been dispensed soleiy for the "benefit of ecze ma patients in large jars sufficient for a month's treatment. This was found to be an inconvenience to many thous ands who use it for minor skin trou bles, such as pimples, blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion blemishes, itching tfeot, piles, etc., which require but a small quantity to cure. To overcome this, and In re sponse to urgent appeals, the dispens ers of poslam have been obliged to adopt, in addition to -the regular two dollar package, a special fifty-cent size, which in future may be found on sale at the MoBride Will Drug Co.'s and other leading drug stores In Marshall town, or may be ordered direct from the Emergency Laboratories, Ko. 82 West 25th street, New York City. In all eczema cases poslam stops itching with .first application, and proceeds to heal immediately chronic cases being cured In two weeks. In less serious skin troubles, results are seen after an overnight application. Samples for experimental purposes may still be had,"free of charge, by writing to the laboratories for them.

BSATKtO. 7"M X,. 1 Suit For $5,000 Damages Against Leech and Michaels on Trial RESULT OF AUTO ACCIDENT Oscar Rosengren, Who Was Run Down at Corner of Main and Ninth Street Almost Two Years Ago, by F. F. Michaels, Suing for Damages for Injuries Received. The suit ifor $5,000 personal injuries, brought by Oscar Rosengren against \V. E. Lcech, of this •city and F. F. 'Michaels, now of Ackley, which was the outcome of the accident at the corner of Main and Ninth streets on the night of July 21, 1906, when Rosengren was very seriously Injured by an automobile driven by Michaels, was ibegun in the district court this morning. W. E. Leech Is made defend ant in the case because ho was part owner of i.ho machine Michaels was driving. Up to noon, when court adjourned for lunch, fifteen Jurors had been ex amined, and it was not thought that a jury would be secured before the middle of the afternoon. Alleges Carelessness. The basis of Rosengren's claim for damages, ajs set out in the petition, which was filed some time ago, is that Michaels was operating the automo bile carelessly and negligently that he was running it at an excessive speed and that he did not have the machine under control. Rosengren was riding east on Main while the auto was going west. The accident occurred at a point near the junction of Main and Ninth streets. Rosengren's leg was badly fractured, and he was otherwise seriously in jured. iFor months he was under a phy sician's care. It is claimed that he was permanently injured. Says Rosengren Was Careless. The defendant's answer to the pe tition denies in general tho allegations which charge carelessness and negli gence in the operation of the automo bile. It says the accident was due to Rosengren's carelessness, and con tends that he was riding a wheel that was provided with neither light nor hell. The claim is made that Michaels did not see Rosengren until it was too late to stop the automobile, altho it was running slowly and not faster than four or five miles an hour. It also says that Michaels sounded his horn as ho approached ^Ninth street. SCHEDULE HEARING CONTINUED. Superintendent Noonan Will Take Up Work Again Saturday. General Superintendent D. C. Noonan of the Iowa Central, who has been in session with the machinists in this olty, looking toward the adjustment of a new schedule, left for Peoria Thurs day evening, and will return here Sat urday to again take up the confer ence. As yet nothing definite has been done regarding the schedule. Mr. Noonan said that there should not be any trou ble over making an adjustment, and all that the company asked was that It be required to pay no higher wages for machinists, blacksmiths, and bailer makers than other roads* in this terri tory were paying at the present time. "We aire paying a little higher rate now," continued Mr. Noonan. "We are paying our machinists 40 cents an hour, while the prevailing rate in this territory is from 36 to 37 cents, and some roads are as low as 35. We want to be fair, but we don't want to pay more than the same kinds of labor are employed at on other lines." BENEFIT FOR MRS. ALLDERSON. Former Prominent Rebekah Worker Now in Poor Health.

So common is the use of coffee as a •beverage, many do not know that it 13 the cause of many obscure ails which are often attributed to other things. The easiest way to find out for one's self is to quit the coffee for a while, at least, and note results. A Virginia lady found out in this way, and also learned of a new beverage that is wholesome as well as pleasant to drink. She writes: 'I am 40 years old and all my life, up to a year and a half ago, I had been a coffee drinker. About ten years ago, I had dyspepsia so bad that often the coffee I drank would sour on my stom ach and I could not retain it. "Severe headaches and heart weak ness made me feel sometimes as tho I were about to die. After drinking a cup or two of hot coffee, not knowing it was harmful, my heart would go like a clock without a pendulum. At other times it would almost stop and I was so nervous I did not like to he alone. "If I took a walk for exercise, as soon as I was out of sight of the house I'd feel as if I was sinking and this would frighten me terribly. My limbs would utterly, refuse to support me, and the pity of it all was, I did know that coffee was causing the trouble. "Reading in the papers that many persons were relieved of such ailments by leaviing off coffee and drinking Pos tum, I got my husband to bring home :i package. AYe made It according to dl rections and I liked the first cup. Its rich snappy flavour was delicious. "I have been using Postum about eighteen months and to my great joy, digestion is good, my nerves and heart are all right, in fact, I am a well wom an once more, thanks to Postum."

Fast (ireat, Western Meat Train Jumps Track at Second Street Crossing ROAD DETOURS ITS TRAINS Passengers Are Sent Over Northwest­ ern Via This City and Ames Freight Traffic Delayed for Most of the Day Six Cars Off Track, Which Was Badly Torn Up. Six cars, loaded with moat, Were de railed, seventy-five yards of track were torn up, traffic was delayed for hours, and the South Second stree: crossing over the Great Western blocked during the middle of the day by a freight train wreck on that line at 9:50 o'clock this morning. The dam age done, aside from the delay to traf fic and the tearing up of the track, was slight. A car in No. 62, east-bound, a fast meat and live stock train in charge of Conductor Jones, of Des Moines, left the track a short distance west of Second street. A defective frog or flange is thought to have made the wheel leave the track. The first car de railed dragged five others off the track with It. The engine passed the spot safely. The trucks of the derailed cars tore into the ground, and tho car that blocked the roadway on South Second street burled its wheels and trucks in the ballast almost up to the frame. This car almost turned on Its fdde and was somewhat damaged, but the other five were not broken. The train was running about fifteen miles an hour when it left the track. A wrecker was expected from Hud son at about 1 o'clock, and it was thought the track could be cleared in five hours after it arrived. Passenger trains No. 5, west-bound at 9:50, and No. 4, east-bound at 12:30 o'clock this afternoon, were detoured via the Northwestern to and from Ames. Both were about an hour late out of here.

Chicago. April 10.—Cattle—The us ual Kriday tone pervaded trade today. Only a l'ew good steers were on sale and buyers were reluctant to take hold, consequently prices held nominally steady. The meat situation in the east par ticularly is reported in bad shape and the outlet poor. Buyers have ham mered the market as hard as they could all week, even in the face of re markably light receipts, and it is hard to guesS what they might have done if receipts had been heavy.

The market opened with a show of strength, but lack of demand and bear ishness displayed by all classes of buyers, brought about a weak feeling. Prices closed 5c lower. While the cream of the crop is but a little lower for the week, undesirable stuff has lost ground rapidly. It. is a seasonable condition indicating a wid ening of the spread and the buying of stuff on its merits. Odds and ends, big coarse sows and little pigs were a drug and a lot of that stuff showed up. None of it was sick, and the trade was forced to the conclusion that it had been starved out. There was a de of ptags presiding officer at the meeting.

The plan to issue $15,000,000 of notes, secured by $9,457,000 general lien bonds and $750,000 il'ennsylvania, received the approval of the New York public service commission after attempts to arrange a. loan with J. P. Morgan •Co. had failed. Mr. Morgan was re ported to be willing to let the road go into the hands of a receiver, and a hint to holders of the old notes, made last Saturday, that unless these were exchanged for new notes, the directors and their friends would not raise new money and would allow the Erie to pass Into a receivership, had a de pressing effect upon Erie stocks. The unno.incement of Mr. Harri man's action In relieving the pressure caused a vigorous, tho unhurried, ad vance in prices as well as accusations of "high flUiince" methods in the deal. Holders of old notes who sold their holdings last Saturday suspiciously are wondering why a statement of the board's Intentions were delayed so long and why tills especial disposition of the matter was made.
