(Trom a Staff Correspondent.)
B8 M01N&3, July, S.-(Speclal.)-The
atata of Iowa makes a' considerable profit
on Its state farms, which are worked by
ths wards of the mate at various charitable
and other Institution. Aa illustration of
this was given In the annual report of ths
Stat Hospital for the Insane at Clarlnda,
where there Is one of the best of the many
tate farms. The annual report shows that
the products of the farm there were turned
Into the supply house for the Institution
on a basis of $K,3 K valuation. Every
Item is accounted for carefully and ths
Institution frm credited with the product
In actual values such as would be paid If
the supplies were bought in th market.
The results at the state farm at Clarlnda
have been duplicated at other farms of the
atata.
Convicts Tench Convicts.
The annual report of the prison school at
Anamosa shows thst a number of convicts
are employed aa teachers In the prison
achool. The school was In charge of Miss
B. A. Rettljr for a portion of the year, but
she resigned and the work was given to F.
A." Benton, with Mrs. Benton In charge of
the female depsrtment achool. Four con
victs have also been made use of In teach
ing, namely, Hoot, VanTasaell, Balyarrfs
and Raphael. The average attendance at
the prison school for the year wss flfty
tbree. There were 207 enrolled.
In Coort Over Voting; Machines.
An interesting suit Is being heird In the
district court, being the application for an
injunction to prevent the Board of Super
visors from completing the deal for tha
purchase of fifty-one voting machines to be
used In elections in Dee Moines and Polk
county. The claim' Is made that the ma
chines do not conform to the Iowa law and
that It la entirely possible to commit fraud
by and through them. The machines vote
with a ball Instead of a ballot and the balls
are afterward counted. It was attempted
to be shown to tha court that It was pos
sible to work a chain ballot on the ma
chines through a system of pretended inde
pendent voting.

Get n Larger Dredge.
At a special meeting of the City council
yesterday afternoon a new contract for a
dredge for Indian Creek waa entered into
with the Bellefontalne Foundry & Ma
chinery company, by which the city will
secure a larger machine than at first pro
posed at the original cost of $4,800. . Tbe
company now proposes to furnish a dredge
with a thirty-five foot boom Instead at a
thirty-two foot one and with a 4Sxl08 boiler
In place of a 42x108 one. The longer boom
will give more orking range for the ma
chine while the increased else of the boiler
Will give It greater capacity, The change
was made at the request of the company
which has a machine of the larger else
In stock and can therefore deliver It sooner
than the one originally agreed upon which
would have to be manufactured specially
to fill the order.
The contracts for the construction of tha
boiler house at the city buildings and the
installation of the new heating plant wore
approved and ordered clgned by the mayor.
The house has to bs built by August 1$
under a penalty of $10 a day after that
date.
The aldermen inspected the recently com
pleted paving on Fifth avenue between
Third street and Clark avenue but deferred
passing on the assessment schedule until
next Monday night, to which time the coun.
ell adjourned. The city l( Is expected will
have to bear about $1,000 of the cost of
Improving this street, some of the abut'
ting property being of insufficient value
to carry the entire cost.

Residents of the south part of tha city
are agitating the redisricting of the wards
so aa to make that portion of the city
south of Sixteenth avenue and east of
Sixth street a ward In Itself. As It Is al
present the South Slders are districted In
portions of the Fourth and Fifth wards.
Being thus divided they contend they are
unable to properly unite their Interests.
They feel that they are entitled to an
alderman of their own to represent them
In the city council. The plan for redis
ricting Is still In embryo, but If eventually
carried through the south part of the city
will be known as the Seventh ward and
will mean an additional alderman. Hans
Hansen, Thomas Smith and B. Wesley
have been sppolnted a committee to ley
the matter before the city council and
carry on the campaign for an Independent
