  including the new possessions, in 1910 will be about 1OOOoO,o00 people. Secretary Chamberlain says the Brit ish government will frame new laws for the house of commons, limiting Irish OBJ struction, which proved very painful feature of the last session. With Capt. Williams withdrawn by the Hawkeye foot ball players, as the result of protest, the contest at Min neapolis Saturday resulted in the Uni versity of Minnesota 16 an. the Universtty of Iowa 0.

An effort Is to be made to remove a large red oak tree from the Widest sec tion OF Arkansas to Forest Park, st. Louis, without injuring 1t.

Hence the Bee edttorially advertises in this way: “Wanted-Four pub lic-spirited citizens with S.. 900 apiece for the auditorium fund. Liberal reward payable in public gratitude” Every city of any pretensions needs such a public hall for all kinds of meetings. Those that have already secured them offer superior advantages to outside organizalions as well as to home audiences. Marshalltown needs one, and no citizen could do her people better service than to start movement in this direction that would terminate successfully.

The political indifference this year is the result only of the widespread satisfaction Of the people with political and industrial conditions; yet they ought to arouse themselves sufficiently on cleo ton day to vote the republican ticket and keep the prosperity ball rolling. SO John Herriott shows that Iowa is in. splendid financial condition, out of debt, with a big sum in the treasury. and the cost of state government last year only s1.o2 per citizen. an expense much lower than that Of adjoining states There is every reason why the voter should cast republican ballot this year.
