L. H. DEFORD For Supervisor. EDITORIALS. In speaking of the tariff change no fair-minded person expects to see the entire schedule changed. It will be just that part which has afforded shelter for the trusts. A great deal has been said about the Iowa platform. There is nothing in it that is not clearly embraced in the national republican platform. Those complaints come from the soreheads. MT. PLEASANT.

Mr. Ham DeFord as he is better known, is one of our home raised boys; born in Polk county in 1851 where he was educated in the common schools. He spent five years in the U. S. cavalry service, returning to his old county settling on his farm, and to his hard honest toil and good judgment has succeeded well. He was elected a member of the school board, also township trustee; with his mature age, present experience and good judgment will make a very valuable man to Polk county while we are building our new court house. He is sociable and very pleasant gentleman to meet; a friend to the colored people and all classes of people. In supporting him you cannot make a mistake. SEE WHAT MONEY WILL BUY AT W. W.

It did ever occur to you that the bunch of colored ribbons you wear in your nautonhole—or pinned on your dress if you are a girl—at commencement, or at a baseball or football game, is really a flag? ask a writer in St. Nicholas. It tells to what class school or college you belong, your interest and sympathy. And for some what similar reasons do nations wear their colors. At first, may it be to tell one another apart; but after whilo the colors—the flag—can represent the nation itself; and the way the people acted toward the nation's flag was supposed to show the way they felt toward the nation. EDITORIALS. In speaking of the tariff change no fair-minded person expects to see the entire solicitude changed. It will be just that part which has afforded shelter for the trusts. A great deal has been said about the Iowa platform. There is nothing in it that is not clearly embraced in the national republican platform. Those complaints come from the soreheads. President Roosevelt says that reciprocity must be treated as the handmaiden of protection and so does every loyal republican. Will any one contend that organized labor of this state does not know that the Republican tariff has made the good times that we are now enjoying. If some colored man had committed the act, which many of the people of the South claim was so chivalrous on the part of Tillman, he would never live to have a hearing in court, much less an acquittal. Who says that justice cannot be tampered with? PROF. H. T [Name] Editor of the A. M. E. Review A. Auditorium, next Thu Editor of the A. M. E. Review, will lecture at the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium, next Thursday night, October 29. We have always contended and will contend, so long as Tillman, Bryan and Sullivan are the leaders of the Democrat party, the laboringman will vote with the Republicans. It should be remembered by every colored voter that there is not a democrat on the state ticket who is any better than their leaders, and "Pitchfork" Tillman is the recognized leader of his party. A GOOD IDEA In view of the fact that there is a great deal being said about the Race Problem in all parts of the country, several men of this city are arranging to have a series of lectures here this fall and winter by some of the leading men and women of our race. The first lecture will be next Thursday night at the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium by Prof. H. T. Kealing of Philadelphia, Pa., who is editor of the A. M. E. Review. He is a good writer and lecturer. Among the promoters of this lecture course are the Messrs. J. Logan, Gus Watkins, Jno. Early, P. C. Parks, Levi Riley and others. They are undertaking a cause, but it will cost them a great deal of money to conduct the course, so they ask your patronage. Now give them financial aid by purchasing tickets and attending the lectures. Dairies of New York. Outside of the business of supplying New York with city milk, the farmers of New York state have an investment of $43,450,000 in cows, and a corresponding amount in dairy farms and fixtures—an amount not less than $150,600,000.

Williams of Burlington came up and assisted Mr. Clark to administer the sacrament. Rev. Will me prescribed a very fine sermon Sunday afternoon and Sunday night.

Allen out at the edge of town, and brought and placed in the county jail. Social at the Old Fellow's hall Saturday for the benefit of the pastor of the. A. M. E. church.

Since he the governor has been in office he has been famed as an orator and as a clear thinker, a concise reasoner, and few men have stepped into the political arena and in so brief a time that he has been all the political world. That he has been long identified in the in creats of the common people is shown as early as the year 1881, when he was employed to break up the barb wire that he had ever been arranged on the side of the common people and Abraham Lincoln said that "God must have loved the common people for he made so many of them." The governor is distinctively a man with sincere purity and a strong agonism, but the American people love a fighter when he fights with a definite aim to accomplish certain results. The American people loved Grant and Sh mran Sheridan, Moor and B. C. Cameron, and the governor has been a most consistent republican, working for the best interest of the republican party. The governor's goat adress at Minn. apolis when he said that "The consumer was better entitled to the protection than the government." He completed his through monopolis.c method." He made an her sensation in his Detroit speech when he defended the doctrine of Blaine and McKinley in reciprocity treat a. He won a royal award for his work. He settled all strikes at Dabuque to the entire satisfaction of the employer and the strik rns. Governor Cummins wrote the platform of the last Iowa state convention with his own hand and submitted to the apocalypse a prose it without the alteration of a single word. He is a true friend of the colored race and believes in the elevation and education of them and like our good president chooses the best opportunity to those who are worthy regardless of color. Mrs. R. N. Hyde recived the sad news of the death of a distant relative in Wabash Ind. as follows: *Reborn* at age 33 years, *one of the best known pioneer colored ministers in this part of the state died Tuesday morning at 7:30 o'clock at the home of his step-daughter, Mrs. George H. Church of Indianapolis, who has a little over a week's illness. The cause of his death was Bright's disease*. The funeral will take place Wednesday afternoon at the A. M. E. church, Rev. James Townsend of the Indianapolis, having served the services. Interment in Falls cemetery. Rev. Wilson has resided in Wabash for about four yrs, retiring from the ministry and coming here from Peru where he had charge of the colored people's church of that city. He has been in the ministry for almost 40 years. His birth is not known, being born in slavery in the south. His only immediate relatives living are his wife and a niece Susie White, of Vineennes.

Sabra, huntans, Oct 19th — A great many men in this neighborhood used to complain of pain in the back but now scarcely one can be found who has any such trouble. Mr. Gottlieb Mm. is largely responsible for the improvement for it was he, who first of all found the remedy for this Backache. He has recommended it to all his friends and neighbors, and in every case it has had wonderful success. "For many years I had been troubled with my Kidneys and in the small of my back. I tried many medicines but did not derive any benefit until last fall, when I bought a dozen boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills. After using them a few days I began to improve, my back quit aching and I felt better and stronger all around. "I will keep them in the house right along for in my opinion they are the best medicine in the market to-day, and if my back should bother me again, I will use nothing else."

Usually Make Sickly Men and Women The "spoiled child" usually makes a weak, sickly man or woman because such a youngster is not well-behaved and drinks things that are unfit for any stomach and sickness results. "I was always a delicate, spoiled child and my parents used to let me drink coffee because I would cry for it," says a Georgia young woman. "When I entered school my nervousness increased and my parents thought it was due to my going to school, so they took me out again. But I did not get any better and my headaches got worse and weakened me so that I was unfit for any duty. Sometimes I would go a whole day without any other nourishment than a cup of coffee. "Last spring I had a bad attack of the Gripe and when I recovered I found that coffee nauseated me I could not drink it and even a few swallows would cause a terrible burning in my stomach. It was at this time that a friend who had been much benefited by the use of Postum suggested that I try this food drink. I found it simply delicious and have used it ever since and the results speak for themselves. I have gained 12 pounds and my nerves are as steady as any ones. "I consider myself well and strong and I am not now to take a cup of Postum with a cracker or a soon as I come home from school in the afternoon. Postum with crackers or a biscuit makes my lunchme. It certainly saved my life for I know coffee would have killed me it had a continued drinking it. "I have a young girl friend, a stenographer, who declares nothing strengthens and refreshes her like Postum and she has a little oil stove in her office and makes a cup of Postum at noontime. I have recommended this wonderful beverage to many of my friends who know what it has done for me." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

I gather in the course of a conversation with a Russian authority on the Near Eastern question that the scope of Russia's plans in the event of war breaking out between either Turkey and Bulgaria and Bulgaria and Tulugna resisted by other. Slav rationales, is sufficiently broad to provide for any contingency. Should Bulgaria, in spite of Russia's warning not to provoke hostilities with Turkey, decide on a campaign against the suzerain power, Russia will nevertheless be forced by her very position as leading Slav power to side against Turkey. My informant adds, however, that Bulgaria's territories at the end of such a campaign would not include a single foot more Balkan territory than they do to day. Bulgaria he adds, would only succeed in paralinger her own economic condition for years to come.—St. Petersburg Correspondence London Express. Saw the Governor Eat. Gov. Van Sant and Judge Janson of Minnesota, visited the state fair grounds at Minnesota about noon and went into a restaurant for a lunch.

The governor son will have to see the governor of Minnesota eat. Come right and watch him feed."

Glen MacDonough, who wrote the dretto for the comic opera "Babes in Toyland," was sitting in a New York safe recently with Victor Herbert, the composer, when a waiter approached to take his order. The waiter smiled at Mr. MacDonough and said: "You don't remember me, do you? I used to sing in one of your companies." "I remember you very well," said Mr. MacDonough. "Are you surprised to see me here as a waiter?" asked the other. "Not a bit, replied the librette cheerfully; "you know, I have heard you sing." Professor Witty Reply.

A workman digging a pole hole recently discovered a mistake the frightened settlers of the Wyoming valley made in 1778, when, after the massacre, they returned to the valley and erected a gravestone over the spot where the two settlers first killed by bodies and Indians under Butler were found that the gravestone which was made of stone was some distance from where the bodies were buried. These men, Benjamin and Stukley Harding, had gone to work in the fields above Wyoming in what is now Exeter borough. They were attacked and killed by the Indians on June 30, 1778. The next day a party of men from Fort Wyoming buried the bodies. The following day the massacre occurred, and it was some weeks afterward when the survivors, returning to the valley, erected a gravestone over where they believed the bodies to be the body, was the inscription, which can be done by writing "Sweet be the sleep of those who perished death to slavery." In time other graves were dug about this head stone and a fence was erected. A lineman digging in the road near the fence for a pole found several bones and two skulls. These lay parallel with the headstone, and have been identified as the remains of the Hardings. The bonis will now after 125 years, be placed under the headstone. Boy Turning to Stone. James Wells, nineteen years old, who resides near Gorham, N. Y., began about two months ago to experience a numbness in his lower limbs. This numbness is now extending over its entire body. The joints of the feet and legs are beginning to ossify and the muscles are showing the articulation of beginning to undergo the same process. This slow but deathly pathological change is extending all over the anatomy of Wells and the doctors who have examined him fear a horrible end for the young man. It is a case that is' puzzling the medical fraternity. Wells experiences no physical pain, but the foreseen of feet of the ossifying process is beginning to affect him mentally. The young man has always led an outdoor life, and up to the time of his strange affliction was in the best of health. Made a Good Bargain. J. H.

Carroll Favors Creation of Insurance Department Des Moines, Oct. 19—In a letter of transmittal with his biennial report, which has been submitted to Governor Cummins, State Auditor B. F. Carroll devotes considerable space to the discussion of insurance matters and makes several important recommendations for action by the coming session of the legislature. Most important among these recommendations is one arguing to some extent for the creation of an insurance department for the state distance and separate from the office of the state auditor. Mr. Carroll cities the enormous increase in the insurance business in Iowa and declares the business has grown to such importance that the entire attention of one man should be given to its supervision. The report also emphasizes the importance of panes other than those selling life policies, the state and county mutuals, and says as a general thing these companies are well conducted and doing a good business for their policy holders, but he declares there are areas where insurance business which have been exceedingly extravagant, in the matter of expenses and salaries to their offices, the latter item sometimes exceeding the entire amount paid to the policy holder. He believes the legislature should increase the amount these companies shall pay for salaries and expenses. The report shows that at the end of the biennial period Iowa is richer than even in the history of the state, and that the state's economic growth is 826. This is an increase of $417,826 over the amount on hand when the last biennial report was issued. The report also shows that the state deals with banks and banking, showing a wonderful increase in this business throughout the state, with building and loan associations, revenue banks, and investment companies and telegraph and telephone companies. In nearly all of these matters recommendations would be to the credit of the state for the better regulation of the affairs of the corporations. The auditor's biennial report for 1901 shows a net cash balance in the treasury of $1,114,000.00, after deducting all outstanding warrants. This has been increased to $1,531,826.00 at the end of the biennial period just showing an increase of $417.926,826.00 for the preceding biennial period amount to $1,120,659.54, and the period just closed $617,855.50, making an increase of $1,087,795.96. This, however, includes $346,868.00 refunded by the United States government on account of the claim, and $466,147.89 on account of civil war claim, leaving a net increase from ordinary sources of $666,611.39. Since the legislation enacted by the Twenty-Eighth General Assembly, reducing the rate of interest on the per cent interest rate, the amount to not less than 5 per cent, and increasing the amount which counties may loan to one individual from $1,000 to $3,000, this fund has all been placed at interest, and at a profit to the county. The amount to be charged above 4.12 per cent charged against the counties by the state accrues to such counties as a commission or profit for handling such funds. In a few instances the counties are still loaned to the county 6 per cent interest. The amount of it is now $4,754,444.52. Further sale of school land or funds from eschel estate will not greatly increase this amount. The increase during the biennial period being only $2,139.38. FOR GOOD ROAD3. Southeastern Iowa Association En Borles Work or State Association. Burlington, Oct. 22. "The annual convention of the Southeastern Iowa Good Roads association was held here on Monday, a good attendance. The morning session was held at the Commercial exchange room of the tertiary D. B. Lyons of Des Moines made an address on "Good Roads." He reviewed the work done in Europe and the eastern states and declared Iowa could follow those examples. He proposed a tax of 50 per cent for the township and a tax of 10 per cent for the township and 10 per cent for the abutting property owners to support good roads. He condemned those who censured the Good Roads association, alleging the latter was a good thing and talking was a good thing and was means of arousing the people to action. He urged organization. Counties and townships should organize and move on the legislators with a something would then be accomplished. The following officers were elected: President—W. W. Parsons, Burlington. Vice-President—E. D. Smith, Fort Madison. Secretary-Treasurer—J. B. Gillis, Mount Pelea. Resolutions were adopted pledging co-operation with the state association. A number of short addresses followed in the afternoon. The session was held at the Grand opera house, the principal address being the South Carolina, who said what the agricultural region most needed is permanent roads; sand and clay was commended as suitable material where macadam was too expensive. He held up as a remedy for the present condition government aid. The powers of the localities most needing assistance are capable of means for building them and government aid is imperative. He said we could never have such roads as a great civilized country should enjoy unless the government g*; aid; the state should assist, as ell as the county and township. The speaker opposed to the government loaning was suing the state but favored an appropriation of $100,000,000 a year for five years for the purpose of building good roads. This $500,000,000 supplemented by an additional $500,000,000 from the people, would in his judgment meet all the demands necessary to improve roads. The congressman Thomas Hedge also advised meeting favoring the added roads movement. A similar case, tried some time ago from the Marshall county district court, is now before the United States Court of Appeals for the lower court on much the same law which were put forth in the present claim for the unconstitutionality of the law.

Family Finds Another Victim. ‘That Elliot Zborowakl, who was killed on Tussday in an auto accident at Nice, died as he did, will be no sur prise ‘to thos in this elty who remember him as the greatest dare- devil New York and Newport society over had, Even Foxball Keene, who bas had half the bones in his body broken, was, not the equal to this American count for bis wild, reck- leas disregard for life. He was born {tn this city of a long line of Zborow- kta, Strangely enough, his death is ip keepicg with ‘the traditions of his family, for none of the male =iembers fever dies in bed. Back of this re- markable clreumstance is a tale of a carse four generations ago launched at the head of the great-grandtather of Elllot Zborowskl by an Irish lord, who, in his anger, called upon hea- ven to prevent any male Zborowskt trom ever dying in his bed. None has since. Elllot’s father was stricken with paralysis and died in ‘bis chair bofore the son could ride for a physician. One of his unctes, Elliot, was, killed by . a New | York, New Haven & Hartford train. An other, Francis, was drowned In a Willlamsbridge pond. Still another ‘member of the famtly was killed by belag throws from a horse, avd 80 the story hs gone. Now comes the crushing of this generation's repre sentative in a twentleth century a0 eldant—New York, World. ‘Shink.
