Gov. Boies of Iowa does not talk
much these days, unfortunately for
the republicans, but the boom that
party received by his speeches
during the year will insure theirf a
good plurality, even tho' he remain
silent during the remainder of the
canvass.
In purusing the daily papers we
frequently notice the announcment
that persons have been injured by
mad dog bites. The season of the
year in which the greatest danger
exists is now upon us, extra pre
caution in regard to the matter
should be taken by our people
Since the announcement that the
smelting works would close, iiidefi
nitely, there is strong talk on the
part of the company, of consolida
ting the Omaha works with those
at Denver, Col. In view of this
Omaha is threatened with the loss
of one of her important business
enterprises: and in the event she
does we predict that hurling words
of disapproval at the "inquitous
eight hour law will be indulged
in by Omaha. In the mean time
Denver is offering inducements that
are very tempting to the company
and to be sure she will loose no
opportunity to secure the prize.

The latest plan for regulating the
liquor traffic is one devised by
Alderman Bowes of Kansas City.
While proably not the most-pratic-able,
it must be conceded to be
the most novel liquor ordinance 3-et
devised. He proposes to do away
with the trouble caused by licens
ing saloons by issuing licenses to
the drinker instead. The drinker
of beer will be taxed $20 annually,
and if he wishes to purchase wine
in addition to beer the tax will be
$2o; the privilege of buying beer,
wines and whisky will cost
The ordinance has not yet received
a majority of the votes of the coun
cil, but it is probable that it will.
It is argued that, in view of the
present depressed condition of
business in Kansas City, some plan
must be devised that will create
more revenue. This plan would
surely enable the council to pay all
municipal expenses, but we seri
'ousl' question the general benefits
that would accrue therefrom.
Boy's if
you want a fine dress shoect a low
price let Wm. Herold & Son's show
you how cheap they can be sold,
before you buy. tf
