Considerable money is levied each year . rra. lownsnip. xor road purpose 7 i T Z CUnly leVT' Whlcn " U claimed has been generally expended with- generally expended with out producing the best results. The varl-1 ou townxhlp have levied on an average ' 4 mill annually for road purpose, but the expenditure, of thl money haa been with out system, lh many of the township the money levied for road purpose hae been divided among the three trustee of the township, who have expended it where they deemed fit. The result ha been that in nearly a!) of the townships there have been a many as three road supervisor and three separate gang of men working on the roads. The dlvlvlon of the road fund In this manntir, it Is clalm.-d, Jii not Wen productive of the bout results. ' At the meeting this afternoon It will 1m recommended that the townships organise and that wherever feasible two or more townships consolidate for the purpose of improving the publio thoroughfares. By consolidating It is argued considerable ex pense can be saved, leaving a larger sum to be spent directly on the road. The plan In consolidating the townships Is to have one road supervisor or superintend ent and but one gang of workmen experi enced In the line of making roads. Under this plan each townahlp will, however, re tain the supervision and direction of the expenditure of Its road fund. It will also be recommended that proper returns be made by each township of the money expended on It roads each year and same filed with the county board. Heretofore the township trueteea have rnde no reports of the money expended by them. Colonel Baker, president of the county association, who has given the subject much attention, has Investigated the plan recently adopted in Wright county, this state, whereby several of the township consolidate for the purpose of Improving the public highways and expending the road fund. He favors the adoption of thl plan in Pottawattamie county aa being the most economical and Productive of the best results. Doyle-Bufns (si In.

Lighting m Berlons Problem. The question of lighting the buildings on the new poor farm Is proving one which the county supervisor find extremely dif ficult to solve. The board spent practically all of yesterday's session listening to repre sentatives of rival acetylene gaa companies, but without arriving at any decision In the matter. Supervisors Brandes, Baiter and Kerney voted In favor of installing an acetylene gaa plant, but in this are opposed by Supervisors Dryden and Bullia. The two latter favor using kerosene lamps until such time as the county la able to Install a dynamo and light the buildings with electricity. As a compromise Supervisors Bullls and Dryden moved that tallow can dles be used as the Illumination power at the poor farm, but were voted down by the other three members. Supervisors Brandes, Dryden and Kerney were appointed a committee to purchase and contract for the heating plant and plumbing for the poor farm buildings and the county auditor was instructed to ad vertlae for bids. Supervisor Brandes was authorised to purchase the laundry ma chinery. It was decided to place 310,000 Insurance on the poor farm buildings for one year.

AFTERTHEDRCG STORESKOW Anti-Baleen Leagns Would Flaoe Check on the Bala of Liquor. OPPOSITION TO H. H. ABRAMS DEVELOPS Bryan Stops In Des Moines for a Few Honrs, hot Does Not Call on Aay of His Political Friends. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Oct. 13.-(Speclal.) The state anti-saloon meeting today adopted a number of recommendations aa to changea in the laws and other mattera affecting the control of the liquor business in the state. The legislative committee waa Instructed to work for a change in the pharmacy law providing that blanks for the sale of liquors shall be procured from the county auditors and their number 'shall be re corded. They will work for a law to limit the life of a saloon consent under petition to five years, so that after Ave years the matter of asking consent of the people of a city or county will have to be done over again. A minority report of the legislative committee pronounced against the entire li cense law of the state and demanded Its repeal. This was ' not adopted. The resolutions adopted also approve the Hep burn bill In congress affecting shipments of liquor Into a state, and also approve a bill to prohibit shipments Into a territory. A great right waa had in the convention over the aelectton of a superintendent to look after the enforcement mattera. H. H. Abrams, who has been superintendent for some years, was opposed on political grounds, and it was decided that the se lection should be left to a committee. An other Important recommendation approved was that the state should provide a separ ate Institution for the care of the inebriates of the state and not undertake to effect a cure In the hospitals which are designed solely for the Insane people.

Bryan stopped over in Des Moines last night on bis way home to Lincoln from the east He had been to New York and had intended to go to Europe from there, but stated here that something unex pected had turned up which led him to return to his home. He will leave there In three or four days and sail for Europe, He remained in Des Moines, but a few hours and did not call on any of his po litical associates. Ho had been asked to participate In the state campaign, but has not even replied to the courteous note which waa addressed to him by the demo cratic state committee. Ex-Governor. Boles Writes a Letter. Some additional bitterest has been added to the state campaign by a letter from ex Governor Bolea in which he expounds hla well known vlewa. in regard to the tariff and to trusts. He takes strong grounds against any protective tariff and declares that protection for Industries Is a thing of the past and a tariff to raise money to pay off a national debt is no longer needed. He calls attention to the fact, as he views It, that In this campaign the thing of greatest importance Is the tariff and that if Iowa, an agricultural state, how an Inclination to recede from the protective position it will be a sign to the country that the farmer are opposed to the high tariff position. The governor wa in vited to take part in the campaign, but wrote this letter in its stead. It will be wldoly circulated by the democratic com mittee. Grader Going; Booth. Three hundred workmen on the Rock Island's extension from Wlnterset to Greenfield, the work on which was stopped at the recent meeting In Davenport, are in Des Moines today on their way to New Mexico, for which point they will leave tomorrow. The teams and Implements are at Valley Junction and the contractors, Corbett & Shurley, are taking the men south to work during the winter for the Santa Fe. The shipment of the men south puts a quietus on all hope in Madison county that the work would be continued this winter. There is a feeling that F. W. Cherry, who has been in that section sur veying an lnterurban line, may have had some hand in stopping the work. Iowa Court is Ipheld. Notice waa received today from the United Statea supreme court to the effect that the Iowa court has been upheld in a case from Clay county, entitled Gano against Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad, In which was involved the constitutionality of an Iowa statute. The case was carried un hecjLtisa nf nlulm that thk Inwn 1 ... which provides that the railroad company shall pay attorney fees for the property owner in certain condemnation proceed ings was illegal because it was not of uniform application and discriminated against the railroad corporations in thl state. The courts hold that this is not discrimination. Hock Island Train Wrecked. BEATRICE, Neb., Oct 13. (8pecll.) Through freight train No. .

He asks what size, and hands you a pair; you try 'em on, and if they fit you take them. You don't say anything about quality; you don't ask if they're good rubbers. "What's the use; they're good as any; none of them any good. But they'll keep my feet dry today, anyhow." It's very common, and very foolish, now that Selz Royal Blue rubbers are ready for you. They are better-than-usual in quality; they supply the only thing you want in rubbers good service. They are worth asking for and insisting on for that very reason. You'll pay the same price for them as for the uncertain kind.
