CLASH OF INTERESTS BEGINS
Gardeners and Farmers A r. Brlaa;
Crowded Oat by Prddlers and
Agents of the Honiara
Iloaara.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES. July W.-(Kprcial) The
people of Dea Moines have taken patroniz
ingly to the market square Idea. The plan
Is entirely new here and the novelty of It
ran attracted everyone to the market
place for throe days the last week. There
haa been so much agitation In the last t n
yeart for a market home that the city
council finally tried out the Idea with a
small market place. This agitation servel
to wbet the appetites of the people and
hundreds of peoplo who would scorn to
buy any produce from a farmer's wagon
at thf-tr door have gone In automobiles and
carriages to buy at the market. The Im
mediate effect was to bring down prices
of all garden stuff and this has partially
Satisfied the craving of the connumers for
a cheaper market In which to make their
purchases.
It has developed, however, that there Is
likely to be a sharp clash of Interests at
the market place. For Instance, It la found
that at first the farmers alone went to the
market place with their produce,-but later,
and as Boon as It seemed certain there
would be a successful market, the regular
Street peddlers all went to the market
place. Then the commission houses have
employed others to go to the market place
and the farmers feel that they are being
forced out of the market; In fact, they be
lieve that the commission houses have set
out to destroy the market for the
gardeners.
The demands of the gardeners were laid
before the mayor yesterday and they will
InslKt upon better regulation of the market
or they will withdraw therefrom.
The success of the market has led to a
project for a second market on the east
tde of the river. The market place Is on
a small vacant lot near the city hall, but
in fact the streets (or two blocks have been
taken possession of by the sellers.
I, oca tin Normal Schools.
Tbe state superintendent and the state
superintendent of high schools have agreed
upon the location of twenty-two of the
state-aided high schools of Iowa. There
will be eighteen more located. Fox one
thing it has been found a comparatively
easy task to pick out high schools that are
now well prepared for carrying on the
normal training which Is desired. The
state superintendent will Insist that the
normal course be prepared with special
reference to the needs of the rural teach
ers, for most of those who go through
these secondary or minor normal courses
will go into the country to teach. The
success of the plan Is already assured and
within a few years it is anticipated that
the scholarship of the teachers of the state
will have been advanced materially by this
plan.
Contlaaance of the Drsath.
The continuance of the drouth, while
not as alarming as it was earlier In the
season, promisee to prevent any great
development of the crops of the state. The
effort of the grain boomers to make It ap
pear that Iowa is going to have a normal
crop of all grains does not change the
fact that practically all persons who travel
out over the state bring gloomy reports.
The corn crop -cannot be entirely destroyed
no matter what conditions prevail, but
other crops are in very bad condition save
In the few streaks where there has been
rain the last few weeks. All the , rains
that have fallen have been spasmodio and
of small area.
Low Hirers Caws Fear.
There Is fear of typhoid or other
epidemics In Iowa because of the low stage
of water In the rivers. Not before In many
years has water been as scarce as at this
time. Only a very small stream Is running
In the Des Moines river. The Coon river,
from which the Des Moines drinking water
1 obtained, is larger than the Des Moines
at this time. It Is anticipated that when
freshets come In the fall. If they do, the
freah debris In the livers will cause
pollution of the water supplies in many
cities of the state.
Des Molar Wants Rate Chances.
E. IS. Wylle, representing the Des Moines
shippers, has filed a complaint with the
Interstate Commerce commission in regard
to freight rates between Des Molnea and
several points. He haa attacked the class
rates and states that by reason of the
recent reduction In rates from Chicago
to these western points there is discrimina
tion against Des Moines until there is a
corresponding reduction here. This Is only
a part of a general attack on rates.
"Some time ago," said Wylle, "in what
are culled the Kindel cases, tbe Interstate
Commerce commission made large reduc
tions In the rates applying between Chi
cago, St Louis and Peoria, taking their
rates on the one hand, and Denver and
other places known as Colorado common
points. Including places in Wyoming, west
ern Kansas and Nebraska, on the other
hand. More reoently, Kansas City, St.
Joseph, Atchison, Leavenworth, Omaha and
Sioux City have asked, In consequence of
this revision of rates for the Mississippi
river cities and places' east thereof, to
have the rates of the Missouri river with
Denver revised.
"It Is self-apparent that Des Moines
would be blamable If It Were to sleep under
these conditions and let the rates be re
duced for the cities to the east of us and
not the west of us without any effort to
have a relatively Just rate co-relationship
prescribed for Itself. On behalf of Des
Moines, therefore, the Interstate Com
merce commission has had Its attention
called to these facts by formal petition,
and In the petition request was made that
Des Moines' rates with Denver, etc, be
spectfle figures less than the rates apply.

Denver and other cities." ,
Pay of the Aato Tax.
The first apportionment of the money de
rived from the new automobile tax will net
each county approximately fl.000 for good
roads purposes. The apportionment will
be made August 1. The amount to be dis
tributed has been fixed by State Treas
urer Morrow and Secretary of State Hay
ward. They have estimated that when the
state's IS per cent has been deducted about
1100,000 will remain to be distributed. Under
the ruling made by Attorney General Cos
son each county will have Its share, based
on the number of civil townships which
the county haa. Ths second apportionment
of funds will be made May I 1313.

OSCEOLA, Neb., July 80. (Special.)-The
Osceola Frontier celebration closed In a
manner satisfactory to all, both visitor
and the committee of Osceola business men
who promote this enterprise each year.
There were a lot of horses here, both of
the wild western type and race horses
from surrounding towns. The events were
all good and each afternoon there was a
complete program. The aviator, Keatch,
made a couple of flights on the first day,
but after that the wind was too strong
for him to attempt going up. One accident
occurred that came near proving fatal to
Joseph Gubser. He was leaning out of the
judges' stand at the race track when the
railing he was pressing on gave way and
threw him onto the track. He struck on
his head, and being a heavy man, weigh
ing over 200 pounds, it was thought he had
broken his heck. He is yet confined to
his bed and under the doctor's care.

DRY FARMING CONDITIONS
North sal South Platte Vajleys Are
"Spotted" as to Crop
Yield.
SUTHERLAND, Neb,, July SO. (Special.)
It Is now known to a certainty that nu
merous fields of corn in the dry-farming
sections will fall to yield a crop this sea
son. Some of the farmers failed to raise
a wheat or oat crop, and have been hoping
for rain to make the corn. In these neigh
borhoods where there Is a crop shortage
all along the line, there will be little grass
for hay or range. This condition does not
prevail generally about the country, but
In spots. There are some pretty fair f elds
of corn where showers of rain fell, and the
crops will be "spotted." The valleys of the
North and South Platte rivers are Irrigated
here to a considerable extent, and as there
has been nearly enough water the crops
under Irrigation will make a fair show
ing. The hay crop will be light.

Lincoln Business
Men Seek to Locate
University in City
Proposal to Raise Fund of $135,000
with Which to Add Two Blocks
to Campus.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, July 30. (Special TelegTam.)
To block future attempts to remove rt.he
University of Nebraska to the state farm
grounds citizens of Lincoln propose to raise
$136,000 with which to buy two blocks of
ground east of the present site of the
campus upon which a new $5,000 building
will be constructed.
A resolution will be introduced at the
meeting of the city council Monday after
noon by Alderman Thomas H. Pratt ap
propriating $65,000 from the city funds for
the purchase of the land. The only proviso
attached to the gift In the resolution is
that the university be permanently located
at Its present site. Accompanying the
resolution was a letter from J. E. Miller
and other prominent business men guaran
teeing that they would raise $70,000 If the
council would appropriate the sum named
In the resolution.
Although predictions are rather hasty, a
careful poll of the council Saturday night
revealed that those In favor of the resolu
tion already have a majority of the votes
and little trouble Is anticipated In passing
the resolution.
The movement has Its foundation In ths
work of J. E. Miller, who has labored hard
for the appropriation. Mr. Miller said
Saturday night that It was simply an
attempt to show that the university was
appreciated. The appropriation, If passed,
will insure plenty of ground for the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
