(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Aug. 24 iSiclal.)-State
officials of Iowa are Just now up against
a proposition which means the setting of a
precedent in the matter of regulation of
corporations for the protection of the pub
lic which may have lasting effect In the
state. Several corporations have recently
filed articles of Incorporation under Which
they ask the right to do business in the
state, but this is not under the general
law regarding corporations, but a special
law passed last winter by the legislature.
These companies all purpose to do business
in "Investment" schemes of various kinds.
The law Is one which was adopted as a
substitute for one which would compel all
"homo co-operative" Investment concerns
to be classed as building aud loan. It
provides for regulation of all such Com
panies, but before they can be Incorpor
ated their plan of doing business must
be approved by the stat? executive coun
cil, and the council Is authorised to re
ject them If It Is found that the plan is
one which Is unfair or contrary to the pub
lic Interest. The feature of all these new
"Investment" concerns is that they pro
vide for investment on payments and for
forfeiture of all paid In If a payment Is
not made. Some of them provide there
shall not be forfeiture after three years,
but.lt Is well known that In such corn
panics forfeitures ocyur, If nt all, ibefore
three years. Thus far the state officials
have refused to charter any of the com
panies. It Is bolleved they will not ap
prove of any of the plans submitted. They
are much like the old building and loan
companies, which under former state laws
of Iowa became so scandalous that the
laws were repealed and all building, and
loan business Is now done on the strictly
mutual plan, with ample restrictions. Two
years ago a law was passed which com
pletely shut out all these "Investment"
companies which had started In as "home
co-operatlvea" or on similar lines. Now
the promoters believe they will be able to
get In under the law last passed. They
claim the law not only authorlxes their
chartering but requires the state to charter
them when they corny v generally with the
law. The supreme court has recently up
held the law of two years ago and deliv
ered a strong opinion In favor of the ab
solute right of the state to regulate and
control all concerns which Invite the pub
lic to Investments or deal generally wlth
strangers.
State Fair Contlnnes.
The chief interest of the day at the state
fair was the judging of all departments,
and especially In the dairy, poultry and
livestock. A sharp contest was disposed
of In the dairy department today. There
had been 125 tubs of butter entered against
eighty-five last year, nnd the butter was
the finest ever seen. "More than fifty tuba
scored above 85. ;The'best was two tubs,
both entered from Oelweln, by T. E. Sadler
and M. W. Ashliy, Jpjiig SVs- Three tubs
scored 984, entered by J. C. Joslyn, Wln
ated, . Minn., and Tuils. Nlelson, Camp
Point, 111. Three scored 98, being by W. B.

next. There were many more fowls than
ever before shown. The fruit exhibit wss
so large that the state horticultural so
ciety had to provide S.fOO plates more than
usual.
The attemiinre wis- excellent today,
though probably the number on the
grounds was not ss large as yesterday. The
paid admissions Tuesday were 22.1.10, and
the total actual attendance not far from
40,npn. Toilay the attendance was about
M.ono to 3n,0o0. The receipts up to this
morning were $2fi.lMH6, sa against $22,717 So
last year at the stme date. The Wednes
day receipts last year were $1 T, fX. and this
year they will foot up for today probably
$jn,rtn0 The fair is therefore assured of
financial success, even should not another
dollar be taken In at the gates.
The state's Investments at the state fair
grounds for the past few years have been
great. The state nnd the sgrlcultural de
partment have Invested recently sums as
follows: New exposition lilldlng. not yet
finished. $.VI.0O0; livestock pavilion, two
years ago, $47. one.; swine Judging pavilion,
last year, $3,000; walks nnd other Improve
ments, $50.0rn. As the result of this ex
penditure the facilities for a state fair are
fully twice as, good as they were five years
ago. The stock judging can he done prop
erly and enn be witnessed by all visitors
In comfort. The erection of the new main
building, where the agricultural, dairy and
fruit exhibits are shown, made room In
three other buildings for the poultry and
other things, thus greatly Increasing the
floor space for the entire exhibition.

Charles F. Steen of West Liberty won
the Ames scholarship in the contest judg
ing stock and corn. His total number of
points out of 4"0 was 30fH. Ills closest
competitor was Roy Igo of Indlnnnln, with

came third with 2r.9M. points, nnd Carlisle
Campbell fourth with 2l14 points. Ray
Bennett of Ames got 25fi points.
Oppose Rlennlal Elections.
A peculiar complication has arisen In
reference to the biennial elections amend
ment. Tho Corn Belt Meat Producers' as
sociation has resolved upon making war on
the amendment and to defeat It If possible.
The reason for this Is that the officers of
the association, which is composed of stock
shippers, feel that they were not well
treated by the last legislature, and that
the amendment would give the members
of this general assembly one more year In
office, wlun they would make appropri
ations again. A meeting of the directors
was held here today, when J. J. Ryan, ono

NEW YORKERS BEST SHOTS
Win National Rifle Shoot, with the Nay a

SAILORS MAKE GREAT RECORD LAST DAY

Corps Fifth.
FORT RII.EY. h.aii , Aug. 24. (Fpeclnl
Telegram.) New York won the national
cli liupionship In the national match w hich
hiis been In progress here since Monday
last. Its score was 4.X2I rolnts out of a
possible nnd is really excellent shoot
ing. The I'nlted States navy team wss n
close second with 4,29 points, while the
I'nlted States Infantry team, the I'nlted
States cavalry team, the I'nlted States
marine team and the team from the District
of Columbia were all inside the money,
there being prizes for the first six teams.
Today the style of fire wus that known
ns skirmishing In this firing the competitor
starts slightly In the rear of the ftV-ynnl
mark and commencing by alternately work,
ing and running, with halls at 0"0, 5, 4V,
3.T0, 300 and 2iX) yards, tlrl: g a stated Hum
Iwr of rounds within the time limit at each
halt, tries to make a m uri of 100 points, or
twenty hits on the prone silhouette figure
out of his twenty cliots. The target for
each competitor Is a set of two silhouettes,
one standing, the other prone, counting re
spectively four and five.
New' York Is l ifnious over having won,
but Its position wus most precarious all
day. For Instance, at noon New York was
first with only a .slight lead over the
I'nlted States cavalr.i teui.i, which skir
mished beautifully this morning, and was
holding second pluee comfortably. Dining
l he afternoon a thirty-mile wind was
blowing and one who has not tried It
cannot realize tho difficulty of skirmishing
during a. high wind.
The navy deserves every credit for giving
the New York team a thoroughly hard run,
while the New Yorks have won the hearts
of all competitors In addition to tho na
tional trophy by their sportsmanlike con
duct, together with their excellent exhibi
tion of shooting. The regular service has
its four teams among the first five und
when It Is considered that tho teams
against which the regulars were pitted are
the results of years of careful training and
practice It Is rather u subject for con
gratulation that the service did so well.
The District of Columbia was sixth and
beat out Its little compatriot, Rhode Island,
by a comfortable margin. New Jersey had
some hard luck and lost eighty-three points
from tho score of yesterday because Its
time allowance, which for slow lire was
lermltted to equal one minute per shot,
and was allowed to accumulate during the
match for use at the longer ranges, wan
exceeded by about forty minutes. The
eighty-three points were made during the
excels of time taken.
The national trophy and $600 cash goes
to the New York tenm, the Hilton trophy,
the gift of Mr. Hilton of New York, nnd
$) cash goes to the navy team. The
I'nlted 8tateB Infantry wins the "Soldier
of Marachon" trophy and $200 In cash. The
I'nlted States cavalry team wins $150 In
cash. The I'nlted States marines $ino In
cash and the District o Columbia $W In
cash- and sixth place. These trophies are
kept In the custody of the state adjutant
general, or the adjutant general of the
army or secretary of the navy In the case
of service teams. In addition each mem
ber of a winning team received a bronze
medal Inn which in respouse Is a reduced
facsimile of the national trophy, with the
words, "National Match, 1004."
The standing of the entire nineteen teams
In the final score, out of a possible 6,000
points, is as follows:
1. New York 4322
