t'M Mulcts, uct. is. tppeciao By
a decision of the supreme court, handed
down today, the amendment to the ped
dlers' license law Is declared to have
been Improperly drawn and hence Is of no
force and efTect and the old law Is put
In force. The old law allowed county
supervisors to Impose a license of from
$1 to $50 a year on "peddlers," giving no
definition to peddler. The amendment
adopted at the session of the leglsla
ture in 1904 attempted to change the law
so aa to Impose greater fees on peddlers ,
In the Interests of regular merchants.
It permitted a license of from $5 to !
$100 to be Imposed by supervisors and j
attempted to define "peddlers" as apply-
Ing to any "transient merchant or Itin- t
ernnt vendor selling by sample or taking
orders for present or future delivery." j
The title to the act making the amend- ;
ment designated only "peddlers." and the j
supreme court holds that a new class of I
persons cannot be brought under the
law by merely making the definition In
the body of the act, but that the new j
class must be mentioned In the title to
the act as well. It was recognized that
the old law had little effect In limiting j
the number of men who traveled about ,
the state, taking orders for mall order i
houses and the like. The new law was
Intended to do that. The decision of
the court was In the case of State against
Ed Bristow, appellant, of Plymouth
county, who traveled about taking or- :
ders from samples for the Great Western j
Tea company. In the district court the ,
state won and this Is now reversed.
Federal C'onrt t.ets Politician. I
Gary H. Sellars of Jesup. Ia., has I

contents when the letter belonged to otner
parties. The affair Is an Incident of the
late campaign for the republican nomina
tion ot governor. The letter was sent
by Howard Tedford of Mt. Ayr. state
binder, to George Gallnrno, a newspaper
man. who, was doing work with the Per
kins headquarters and campaign commit
tee. The letter was senl to Gallarno at
Jesup and got into Seller's postofflce box j
by mistake. Sellars was a Cummins man ,
and when the letter was discovered to con- !
tain campaign Information and seemed to ,
disclose the fact that money was being
used In the campaign, Sellars showed the
letter to other Cummins men. Mr. Oal-
larno is now press agent for Claude R.

Mnnlclpal Ownership Checked.
Before there can be any municipal owner
ship of street railways In Iowa there must
be a new law. A new law Is necessary also
before tho franchise can be leased to any
concern by a eity. There ir. a movement In
this city to be launched following the suits
determining the question of the franchise
of the Des Moines street railway to have
the city hold or retain the franchise and
lease It for an annual rental to a corpora,
tlon. Before this can be done, however. It
Is discovered there must be a law per
mitting It. Such a bill will be offered nt
the next session of the legislature.

A Real Stroke
You can learn to swim in two ways. You can
go down and stick your toes into the cold water
and scream, or you can jump off the dock into deep
water. Ridgway's chose the latter. We jumped
off a ljigh dock-into deep water ami a little chilly.
On our first number we wejit clear down out of
sight and when we came up we had to he putlod
ashore in a row-boat. On our second number we
didn't need the row-boat, but we did a heap of
spluttering and splashing. On this third number
we believe you will discover something that looks
almost like a stroke in our swimming. Read it
through and see if you don't think we are making
some progress.
