"What class of business men la more
Imposed upon than the grocer! The grocer
Is looked upon as an easy mark and that
is Just why we are In convention once a
year to help and show one another the
way to be better business men. In this
manner Vice President B. T. Jackson of
Cedar Rapids explained the reason for the
annual gathering In hla response to the
addresses of welcome by Mayor Macrae
and President H. W. Bender of the Com
mercial club at the opening session of
the seventh annual convention of the Iowa
State Retail Grocers' association yesterday
fternoon at Danish hall.
When the opening session was called to
order by John T. Mulqucen of the Council
Bluffs Retail Grocers' and Butchers' asso
ciation the attendance wns much smaller
than had been anticipated, but as the
meeting progressed the late arrivals kept
dropping In and at adjournment there
were about 100 delegated present. As about
600 delegates had been expected the at-
endance Is somewhat disappointing.
Mayor Mncrae was Introduced by Presi
dent Mulqueen as "the best mayor of the
best city of the best state In the union,"
nd received quite an ovation. He ex
pressed the pleasure It gave him to wel
come the association to Council Bluffs and
ssured the convention that everything in
the power of the city officials would bt
done to make the visit of the delegates
pleasant.
City Wide Open to Grocer.
"There Is no key of the city to offer you
for the simple reason that the locks have
been taken off all the doors and every
place la wldo open for you," he said. In
looking over the program for the con
vention the mayor said he was surprised
to read -the titles of some of the subjects
to be discussed. "I had supposed," he said,
'that the meeting of retail grocers would
be more likely to discuss 'How to put the
largest strawberries on the top of the
box and hide from the view of the pur
chaser the scrubs," and such kindred sub
jects." Following up this little pleasantry
Mayor Macrae spoke on the question of
exposing vegetables and other foodstuffs
on the sidewalks where the filth of the
streets blows on them. It Is unsanitary, he
contended, and a means of disseminating
disease germs. He expressed the hope that
the members of the association would dis
continue the practice.
President Bender of the Commercial club,
In his address of wclcomo. gave an Inter'
estlng history of the growth of Council
Bluffs and then followed the response by
Vice President B. T. Jackson of' Cednr
Rapids, who referred to Council Bluffs
as one of the garden sfiota of Iowa. In
the course of his remarks he took occa
sion to compliment the city upon Its evi
dent prosperity and expressed the opinion
that the convention would be one of the
best In the history of the association.

LABOR LEADERS II COVETIOS
City Engineer Heal and some of his

plans for the repaying of Twenty-fourth

the cost can be niado until the plans aru

number of square yards of asphalt o be

the figures are tabulated.
"The cost," said the city engineer, "all
depends on Just what the council wants.
To make a good thoroughfare the east

SHUNNED BY HIS OFFSPRING
Aged Father la Turned Aalde by Ilia
Children Whom He Left
Years Ago.
At the death of his wife, thlrtv-one years
ago, Uotlieb Fellmeth deserted his family
of tour small girls and left ftiem nt the
mercy of the world. Today he Is reafilng
In bitterness the harvest of his neglect.
Old and Infirm, applying for admission to
the county poor farm, his story wrings no
sympathy from the hearts of his abandoned
daughters and it is only with great diffi
culty that he has persuaded them to give
him any sort of a home.
"Where Is our sister you took away 7"
Is the constant cry of all of them, for one
girl was pluced In the care of a home
finding society and never has been found.
Some time ago the attention of the Asso
ciated Charities was called to the case of
the old man. He told his story to Su
perintendent Morris. His wife died thirty
one years ago nt Menomonee Falls, Wis.
Without her help he did not feel capable of
carlng'for his children himself, and so left
Annie, Minnie and Bertha with the neigh
bors, while he took Mary, 3 years old, and
put her .in un orphanage In Milwaukee.
Since then he had been "knocking around"
Intenrtent and the matron live, and where
the abandoned hlldren nre luri-ed and
fed.

subscribed for any more stock, nor author

he autboritt-d anyone to vote his stock.
He had locked In at one meeting, but h id
not been present when sti recorded. Neither
had he ever received the receipts for which

On cross-examination, Mr. Abbott, plain

Dr. Henry was the last witness and then
Mr. Macfarlnnd moved that Dr. Henry

Address of the Prealdent.
In his annual address, President A. M
Hough of the association dwelt at some
length on the garnishment law which the
association had unsuccessfully endeavored
to have passed at the last session of the
state legislature. Tha bill allowed $40 a
month to be exempt to any married man. all
of his income in excess of this being sub
ject to garnishment for his Just debts. Pres
ident Hough recommended that the associ
ation have the bill brought up again and
that every Individual member of the as
sociation use his best efforts to secure Its
passage. Referring to the need in this state
of pure food legislation, Mr. Hough said
that no state In the union needed pure food
legislation more than Iowa, which he
claimed was today the dumping ground of
Impure foods and adlulterated articles of
all kinds. He said in his opinion it was
no use to wait for national legislation, but
the association should endeavor to have the
state legislature enact some' remedial meas
ure. He recommended that the members
of the association refuse to handle gooda
with premium coupons attached. Trading
stamps, ho was glad to say, were almost a
thing of the past In Iowa, hut they should
be driven out altogether.
He suggested that the convention pas. a
resolution condemning the practice of short
weight, and demanding that all cracker
factories, and In fact all manufacturers,
pack their goods net weight and full count.
He urged the members to do all In their
power to defeat the parcels-post bill, which,
he claimed. Is framed for the benefit of the
large catalogue houses. In concluding his
address he recommended the publication of
a weekly bulletin from the office of the sec
retary, provided tho venture could be
financed.
Dlsrnssea Garnishment Bill.
Secretary Ira B. Thomas of Des Moines,
in his annual report, referred at length to
the garnishment bill. Regarding the op
position shown to the proposed measure by
organised lubor, Mr. Thomas had this to
say:
It is unfortunate that the rank and file
of the lubor unions have been lod to be
lieve that this leglalatiun would be against
their better Interests. We know from the
exierlenee of other states which have las
In operation such aa we ask that this legis
lation would be a hardship to no honest
man witn good intentions; on the contrary,
it wouiu eaiaouan a nasi o credit for
every one. 1 he result and benefits from
this law would be Its moral effect upon
the debtors. Men will live within their
means and provide for and pay for the
necessarlea of life tor their families In
stead of buying Indiscreetly and using their
salaries for luxuries and extravagance.
Exemption laws were Placed on the statute
books to protect the men's families. We
ask a change that will compel the man to
provide ror tno ramlly nereasarles.
The work of organization, Mr. Thomas
said, had been vigorously pushed during
the last yeur.

mid had not written his daughters. Now,
at 87 years of age, he found his health so
poor that he was crowded out of work by
younger men wherever he went. Years ago
he had heard that his daughters were
married, but he did not know their names.
With some difficulty Mr. Morris located
the family. Minnie had become Mrs. Mu
rine and wns living at Menomonee Falls
with her husband and children. She had
become quite well off as regards worldly
goods. A second daughter lived at the
same place and another in Massachusetts.
When the old man read his daughter's

her. But his memory was becoming poor

Institution In which he placed her. He
knew that she had found a home with a
farmer near Waukesha, but he hod for
gotten the man's name. The farmer had
since moved away from Waukesha and
he did not know where.
The second letter was written by Fell
meth himself and succeeded In a measure.
It was arranged that the daughter in
Massachusetts would provide a home for
him as long as he behaved himself, the
daughter in Wisconsin to give him a cer
tain amount of money for railroad fare
and expenses. The Associated Charities
will secure transportation for him as far
as Chicago and he will go to Massachu
setts. The daughter there write. In the same
strain as the other. From the tone of her
father's letter she does not think hi. dis
position has changed any In the last thirty
years. Now that he has told a few meager
facts about the lost girl, she and her
sisters hope to be able to find her by an
investigation in Milwaukee.

t'nloa Paclflc Bridge and Light Com
pany Among; Others.
The city council completed its work ss a
board of review last night and decided upon
a number of Important changes in the as
sessment.
The east half of the Vnlon Pacific bridge.
assessed by Mr. Hardin at $326,000. was
raised to $600,000. The executive committee
of the Commercial club recommended that
the assessment be raised to $750,000.
The asre-ement of the motor oompany waa
left at $725,000, the figure named by As
sessor Hardin. The Commercial club com
mittee asked that It be raised to $900,000.
Tho assessment of the water works com
pany was raised from $179,000, as assessed
by Mr. Hardin, to $225,000. The executive
committee of the Commercial club asked
that It be increased to $300,000.
The assessment of the Citizens Gas and
Electric company was Increased from $167,
000, Mr. Hardin's figures, to $225,000. The
Commercial club committee recommended
that the assessment be placed at $200,000.
The property of the Horace Everett es
tate at the corner of Broadway and Pearl
etreet, which had been assessed at Mr.
Hardin at $60 000, was Increased to $100,000.
Tha assessment of the New Nonparlel
company was raised from Mr. Hardin's fig
ures of $30,000, to $40,000. Victor E. Bender,
manager f the company, filed a sworn
statement to ihe effect that the company
was capitalized at $50,000. of which $42,500
had been paid In, and that the stock was
not worth more than 25 cents on the dollar,
These were the most Important change.
although there were several other slight
Increases, which In the aggregate will
make a material raise over Mr. Hardin'.

Preparing; for Itoek Pile.
City officials are making preparations to
start a rock pile In the rear of the city hall
building, where tramps can be put to work.
Already ' a lot of stone has been gathered
up and dumped behind the city tool house
nnd some old concrete taken up by the
street car company will be used. No stone
has been purchased, but this may be done
unless the city Is cleared of tramps and
petty thieves. Police Judge King thinks
that a few days on a rock pile is much bet
ter than giving a tramp a jnl! sentence and
boarding him. The plan Is to start the
gang at work today. If one escapes is Is a
sure thing that he will not return and not
much of an effort will be made to hunt up
prisoners who do get away. What Is wanted
is to rid the city of the petty thieves and
bums that now Infest the city.
Paving; Payment Coming; Delinquent.
On June 7 the first payment on the pav
ing of Railroad avenue will become delin
quent. City Treasurer Howe want, the
property owners to know this, so that he
will not be compelled to charge up Interest
at the rate of 1 per cent per month. As the
city at large pays two-thirds of the cost of
this paving, grading and curbing the cost
to abutting property owner, does not
amount to much. The paving of thi. thor
oughfare has Increased the value of prop
erty a great deal and on account of this In
crease the assessable property Is amply
able to stand the small tax assessed.
