A number of tho churches of tho city
observed Thanksgiving day with a union
torvlco yesterday morning at tho First
Christian church, the nttendanco at which
taxed tho capacity of tho building. The
service was a particularly Interesting ono.
Tho collection will bo turned over to tho
"Woman's Christian association for a fund
now befog .raised for the establishment of a
"creche," whore tho poor women who have
to go' otit to work can leavo their babies
arid havo them cared for during tho day.
To Itcv. J. W. Wilson, pastor of tho Klrst
Congregational church, was delegated tho
duty of preaching tho union service sermon.
He took as his text Acts xxvill, 5:
"Ho thanked God and took courage," say
ing in part:
"This year of our Lord, like all preceding
years, has brought lis own peculiar Joys.
The nation, tho state, tho community,
churches, families and individuals havo all
received abundant blessings and many good
gifts that havo nover been duplicated. For
tli 080 a whole nation stops to express its
gratitude. Mkewlso all of us should glvo
thanks nnd tako courage. Thero are many
reasons that should lend us to do this.
"Since our last Thanksgiving day our na
tlonui houso of representatives by a dc
clslvo voto has excluded a known polyga
mlst from Its membership and determined
that polygamy shall not receivo olllclal
recognition by our nation. Llko tho lopors
of old, theso morat lepers of our day must
cry out afar off. Tho dlseaso of political
ccrruptlon llkewiso has received n percepti
ble check during the year. Certain men of
unsavory reputation havo failed to bribe
their way Into tho highest legislative cham
bers of tho nation and other political bosses
aro likely to bo hurled from their solf
inado thrones of power. In several of our
cities the pcoplo havo declared that political
trickery and election robbery are not to
bo tolerated and that high oftlccs aro too
sacred to bo filled by men who aro high
handed blackmailers in league with political
burglars and cncakthlevcs and confessed
despollers of election returns. Kven a no
torious boss of our greatest metropolis and
his vlcc-rrotcctlng subordinates aro on the
run before tho righteous crusade of good
Bishop Potter. This political boss is re
ported to havo turned preacher recently and
lectured his associates on the necessity of
purging tho city of its vlco 'indulging as
ono has suggested,' In ono of thoso brassy
assumptions of virtue nnd outraged liino
cents which would bo humorous If not so
flagrantly und transparently falso.
"Tho love of money Is still tho root of
nil evil. And our recent presidential cam
paign which wastho cleanest, least pas
sionate and'most Inspiring campaign wlthfn
our rocollectlon Old not settle everything.
It did not scttlo tho trust question nor
de.tcrtnlno hoW wo aro to escape tho bano
ful infiuenco of powerful combinations of
moneyed men who aro animated by selfish
motives. Wo, shall nover sottlo tills ques
tion In a political campaign, becauso it Is
not a question of politics. It will nover bo
finally seitlcd until mon everywhere learn
that It Is more blessed to give than to ro
pelvo and that every roan Is his brother's
keopor anil must lovo hl3 neighbor as him

Council Will Meet lu Speclul Session
to CoiiNlder It.
Tho city council will meet In adjourned
session this afternoon to act upon ino
assessment of tho Graham avenue sower,
when it Is said property owners on tho
avenue will contest tho right of the city
to nsscss against them part of the cost of
thp sower on South First street and Mad
ison avenue.
At the meeting of tho city council last
Monday night Alderman Lougeo stated that
a number of tho property owners had ob
jected to the assessment and ho callod'
for tho city solicitor's opinion on tho mat
ter, the Bime to be submitted at today a
meeting. City Solicitor Wadsworth, when
askod yesterday, said ho had received no
notlco that his opinion was required in
tho matter. He had, he said, given one
on a former occasion, In which he held
that the proporty owners on Graham avo
nue were legally bound to boar their pr9
rata cost of the lower section of tho sower
sjBttm. The original contract for tho
sewer was awarded threo years ago, but
only the portion on South First Btreot was
put In, as the proporty owners on Graham
nvonuo asked that tho portion on their
street bo postponed until such time as tho
street would be rcpaved. The entlro cost
of the sewer was averaged up and Graham
nvonuo property owners at that tlmo agrocd
If tho work on their Btreot was postponed
they would willingly pay tho amount, as
it would have been If tho work had been
dono all at ono tlmo. In order to carry
off the, sewerage from tho upper part of
the. system, the plpo on First strcut had to
bo, .larger than-on Graham, avenue and tho
coat of that part of tho sower was cor
respondingly greater. Undor thoso circum
stances City Solicitor Wadsworth holds that
thero Is no question but that the property
owners on Graham avenuo nro liable for
tho cost, not only of their portion of tho
sewer, but their pro rata share of tho
additional cost of the sewer on the lower
end, and will so advise the council at Its
meeting today.
Tho council will meet this afternoon at
1:30 o'clock and first Inspect the work be
fore taking any action on tho assessment.

Tho Thanksgiving day foot ball gamo
between tho Dodgo Light guards and Tabor

Tho game woj witnessed by a crowd of
about 1,500 persons, who well filled tho two

of tho collegians woro "knocked out" nnd
tholr places filled by substitutes. In tho
first half Council Bluffs kicked off to Tabor,
to tho thirty-yard lino, when It was caught
by Tweedy nnd downed. From this on the
plgslcln remained In Tabor's territory and
nt no tlmo was tho Guards' goal In danger,
Graham after several end runs and hitting
tho lino secured a touchdown squarely In
center of tho poles nnd goal was kicked by
Dnlloy. At tho end of the first halt tho scoro
was 6 to 0 lu favor of tho soldiers.
Tho second half was a repetition of tho
first almost and tho soldiers managed to
keep the ball dangerously closo to Tabor's
lino most of tho tlmo. During tho cntli-o
second half Tabor was never nearer than
tho thirty-yard lino of their opponents.
Near tho end of thu half Grnhnm secured
another touchdown, tho hall being near
tho left sldo nnd Dalley failed to kick coal
Tbo soldiers then worked tho hall to Tabor's

Ioivn Woman SurTriiRlnta.
Mrs. E. 11. Bolden of Sioux City, presi
dent of the Iowa Equal Suffrago associa
tion, was In consultation with other ofil
ccrs nt headquarters of tho association
in this city. Mrs. Dclden expects to de
voto practically all of her tlmo tho coming
year to tho work of organizing branchos
of tho association In every county to fa
cllltato tho work. The officers of tho
suffrage association nro somewhat disap
pointed over tho discovery that tho voters
did not order n convention ,to rcvlso tho
constitution. It was supposod even after
tho count had been completed that tho
convention had been ordered, but tho final
footings showed that tho convention was
beaten. Tho suffragists hoped that tho
prospect of n convention to mako a new
constitution of tho stato would bo an added
Incentive to tho women to mako an effort
to havo tho now constitution recognize
women ns voters. However, they say they
will continue tho work of organization and
agitation and declaro that it was never
In such cxcellont condition as at present.
They havo attracted much attention by
their contribution of carload of hogs
far tho National Woman Sultrago bazar
In Now York. Tho hogs wcro donated by
wealthy farmer of erro-nGordo county.
They wero shipped to Chicago today In a
car which tho w'omcn of Mason City dec
orated handsomely nnd properly labelodi
Instead of sending the hogs to Now York
to bo disposed of In the bazar at Madison
Sqi'aro Garden It has been decided to mar
ket tho hogB In Chicago and send tho pro
ceeds, together with the decorations nnd
banners, to the 'bazar. It Is such an un
usual contribution that tho Iowa women
aro gaining great notoriety therefrom.
Vote for Delia,
Tho returns from tho state will surprtso
many by tho fact that tho social dem
ocrat, or Debs, voto exceeded the vote for
tho populist, or Barker, ticket. Dobs ro
colved 1,048 votes In Iowa, nearly half being
In Scott county, whern ho got B40 votes.
Wharton Barker got only 613 votes In the
stato, tho largest number In any ono
county being sixty-nine In Madison. Joseph
Malloncy, tho socialist labor candidate, got
259 votes 'In tho stato. receiving forty-seven
in Clinton county nnd forty-threo in Scott
nnd the rest scattered about tbo stnte.
Leonard, tho United Christian candidate,
got 707 votes, tho largest vote being thir
teen in Polk county. Tho Woolloy voto
amounted to 9,302, a considerable gain over
tha 3,644 votes cast for both prohibition can
dldntc3 four years ago. Tho prohibition
lsts aro strongest In Polk county, which
cast 410 votes for Woolloy. The total Iowa
voto Is but little larger than four years
ago. Then It was 62J.E47 and this yenr
It was C30.007. Four years ago McKlnloy
got 289,293 and this year 307,818. Four years
ago Bryan got 223,714 and this year 209,465.
Tho McKlnley plurality of 65,562 of four
years ago was raised to 98,353, and the clear
majority of 67,039 has been turned Into a
majority over all of 86,099 this year.
Kxtrn Session Probable.
Tho impression Is growing that an extra
session of tho Iowa stato legislature will
be needed to straighten out the tanglo Into
which tho voters of tho state havo got their
servants by adoption of tho amendment for
biennial elections. Senator Titus, the
nuthor of the amendment, regards It pos
slblo that the legislature will havo to take
action to remedy somo of the defects, Tho
matter of tho selection of Jurymen for the
district courts next year is causing trouble,
It Is pointed out that tho amendment leaves
the courts without tho usual list of venire
men and something will havo to be done
before they can proceed with criminal causes
or any Jury trials. Whllo tho stato offl
clals affected by the mistake In tbo amend
mont havo all signified their Intention of
stopping out January 7 next, at the end of
tho terms for which they wero olected, this
Is not true of all tho county officers. It
Is reported that the county clerks In John
son, Benton, Bremer, Jasper, Sac, Wapello
and other counties have had an Investigation
mado and havo become convinced that the
amendment really and legally extends their
terms ot office one year and that they
will not voluntarily relinquish their offices
to their successors. As yet no move has
been made to get tbo matter of tho bl
cnnln! election amendment Into the supreme
court for final decision.

seat can be secured. It Is stated that $40,
000 has been ratsod In this way. In some
parts of the county It was felt that the
sum asked for tbo new court houso was
too large. Thero was unfavorable com
ment also because the peoplo of Dcnlson
made no offer ot asslstanco to the county
In case a new court house was ordered
The prospect ot reopening tho county seat
question may bring matters to a head so
that In a few years Crawford county will
get a court house,

When the aged tuau tries to save youth
from mistakes such as he made, the
youth smiles to himself: "The idea
of that old fossil thinking that an up-to-date
young man is going to make
mistakes." Ft is a peculiar trait of
human nature that each man thluks he
is a little smarter than the others, and
that he will sucree '. where others failed.
"Oh, yes," says Smith, "I know that

will take such chances." And he smil

alike in his feat nnd iu his failure.
T1IK KXTKKMR OF rOUY.
The most foolhardy man who ever
risked his life, or the most infatuated
gambler who ever risked his fortune, is
a sage compared with the man who
attempts to get the best of Nature.
The foolhardy man may succeed. The
gambler may win. But the man who
takes chances with Nature is bound to
lose. If the obituaries of tens of thou
sands who arc cut down annually in
life's prime were truly written death
would not be attributed to this or that
form of disease, but to an attempt to
evade the necessary laws of health.
The weak spot in the modern man is
his stomach. It is in disease of the
stomach that many of the maladies
begin which carry off the busy men of
the day. The seed of disease once
planted in the stomach grows and
spreads like some climbing parasite
about a tree. It throws out a tendril
about the heart and presently another
which grips the lungs, and others again
which take hold of kidneys and liver.
Then suddenly the man is smitten by
heart disease or lung disease or suc
cumbs to some malady of kidneys or
liver. The real scat of disease is the
stomach. And. one of the reasons why
the diseases .of the other organs often
fall of a cure is that the treatment
ignores the stomach, and attempts to
treat'directlytheother-organs, whose
diseases .are only symptoms of disease
of the stomach and other organs of
digestion and nutrition.
THERE'S rMtNTV OP PROOF
of the soundness of the proposition that
diseases of other organs remote from
the stomach which arc caused by dis
ease of the stomach must be cured
through the stomach, and, in fact, can
not le cured in any other way. The
best proof in the world is that Doctor

Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a
stomach and blood medicine, cures dis
eases of heart, lungs, liver, kidneys,
etc., by curing diseases of the stomach
and digestive and nutritive systems.
"For six long years I suffered with
my liver, kidneys, and indigestion,
which baffled the best -doctors In our
country," writes Mr. E. L. Ransell, of
Woolsev. Trmce William Co., Va. "I
suffered with my stomach and back for
a long time ami after taking a quantity
of medicines from three doctors, I grew
so bad I could hardly do a day's work.
Would have death-like pains in the side,
nnd blind spells, nnd thought life was
hardly worth living. I decided to con
suit Dr. R. V. Pierce and his staff of
physicians. They said my case was
curable and I was greatly encouraged.
I began taking Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discover' and 'Pleasant Pel
lets,' as advised. Before I had taken
half of the second bottle I began to feel
relieved. I got six more littles and used
them, and am happy to say
I owe my life to Dr. Pierce
nnu, ills medicines. These
words nre truths, as I live,
so if this testimonial can
le used in any way to tie of
benefit you need not hesi
tate to use it. I shall stand
for the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute as long
as life lasts."
DON'T DEI.AY.
Disease never leaps cm a
man like a Hon from am
bush and strikes him down
at a blow. However sud
denly a man may be
stricken and however
deadly the disease, the
time wns when it was a
little thing, easy of con
trol. If you are suffering
from indigestion, dyspep- 1
sia, or any form of stom
ach "trouble," don't put
off the proper treatment
"Golden Medical Discov
ery" will cure diseases of
the stomach and organs
of digestion and nutrition
at any stage, but the
cure will be quicker the earlier it is
begun.
"For twelve long mouths I suffered
untold misery," writes Mrs. Mollic Col
gate, of Randolph, Charlotte Co., Va.
" No tongue coulu express the pain that
I endured tcfore I commenced taking
Dr. Pierce's medicine. I was not able)
to do anything at nil. Could not eat
anything except bread and tea or if
I did tlie top of my head hurt so it
seemed it would kill me; with alt that
I could do it would burn like fire, but
now since taking ' Golden Medical Dis
covery ' I can cat a little of almost any
thing I want and can do a good day's
work ns well as anybody can. Am bet
ter than I have been for years, I think
your medicine is the best that ever was
made, for it is the only thing that ever
did me any good. I tried many other
kinds, but none did me any good but
your 'Golden Medical Discovery' and
'Favorite Prescription.' I can never
praise them too highly to any one who
suffers as I did."
Sick psople are invited to consult Dr.
Pierce by letter, free. All correspond
ence held as strictly private nnd sa
credly confidential. Write therefore
without fear as without fee to Dr. R. V.
