Baldwin.
The meeting waa presided over by W.
A. Mynster. president of the association,
and In addition to the members there were
many frlrnds of the late lawyer present.
Addresses eulogistic of the deceased and
expressive of the high position he held In
the profession were made by Judge O. D.
Wheeler, Charles M. Harl. George S.
Wright. A. W. Askwlth. Emmet Tlnley.
I. N. Fllcklnger, Hon. C. U. Pe.unders, N.
A. Crawford. 11. J. Chambers. J. P. Organ
and A. B. Wadsworth.
On behalf of the committee, composed
of C. M. Harl. J. M. Galvln, A. W. Ask
wlth, W. A. Mynster and C. G. Saunders,
Mr. Harl read the following resolutions,
which were ordered by Judge Wheeler
spread on the court record:
To the Honorable District court of Pot
ts wsttamie County, la.:
The bsr of this court has learned, with
profound sorrow, of the death of our
brother, John N. Baldwin, In the prime of
life and tn the full tide of a distinguished
professional career. We .deem it due to his
memory and to the court that a memorial
expressive of our appreciation of his char
acter and services be placed upon the
records of this court, In which so many
of his professional triumphs were won, as
an enduring monument to him.
John N. Baldwin came to the bar of this
court at the very threshold of young man
hood, bearing a name distinguished in the
professional annals of this state. His
father, Hon. Caleb Baldwin, had been the
chief Justice of the supreme court of Iowa,
and had long stood In the forefront of his
profession. It developed upon John N.
Baldwin to maintain the honor. and prea
tlge of a man thus distinguished. It is a
sufficient tribute to him to say that he
measured up fully to that responsibility.
He possessed every qualification that would
endear him to us aa a man and a lawyer.
Genial, kindly and loyal, he possessed the
characteristics which made us love the
man. .
Gifted with a keen. Incisive, logical mind.
strong, quirk mentai grasp, remarkable
tact, splendid eloquence and deep learn
ing, he had all the qualities which dis
tinaiilsh the great lawyer.
By force of circumstances at an early
aae. when the -average young lawyer
comparatively briefless, he waa the trial
lawyer or tne leaaing law rirm or inn par.
He acquitted himself with such skill snd
success that he was speedily recognised
SS one of the strong lawyers of the state
and became the representative as a lawyer
Of large and important Intereata.
During the larger part of his professional
life he was a member of the bar. It was
here that he won his spurs and made manl
fest the force, character and ability which
led him to the larger duties and oppor
tunities of the. profession. For many years
he was on one side or the other of almost
every Important case tried In this court
and by his character and ability aa a law
ver. he won not only the admiration, but
the respect and esteem of all the courts
and of every member of the bar.
His brethren of ' the bar watched with
pleasure his rapid rise tn the profession
and confidently looked forward to greater
honors and msny years of usefulness.
He waa a man of large mould and his
faults were those of a great and generous
nature. Anything small or mean would have
been Impossible to him. By his gonial dispo
sition, his loyalty to his frlenda and hie
clients, hi' Integrity In the dlacharge of
very professional obligation and iUs splen
did ability, he reflected honor upon his
chosen profession.. His death In the prime
of manhood when- he could bring to the
discharge of hla duties- of the profession
not merely his splendid natural ability, but
his long years of experience, la a dis
tinct loss to the bar, of which he was an
ornament.
Realising the sense of the personal loss
felt bv each of us who were bound to him
onlv hv the ties of friendship and profes
sional brotherhood, we can have some con
ception of the depth of sorrow of those
who were endeared to him by the cloaeat
human ties, and to them In this hour of
their dark bereavement we extend our sln
cerest sympathies. He has left to them
the heritage of a splendid name and mae
terful succeaa In his chosen profession. He
has left to vs a record as a lawyer that
la to us a source of congratulation and In
spiration. At the close of the meeting Judge Wheeler
adjourned district court for the rest of the
day out of respect to the deceased attorney.

Unless County Auditor Chcyne is induced
to place a different Interpretation, on the
new primary election than that he reached
yesterday neither the prohibition nor the
socialist party . will hava their county
tickets printed on the official ballot at
the primary election on June 1
Section J of the primary law under the
title "Political Party Defined." is as fol
lows: The title "political party" shall mean a
party which, at the last preceding general
election, cast for Its candidate for governor
at least 2 per centum of the total vote
cast at said election, provided that such
other political oraanlsationa as may. under
sections I'M! and lb of the code nominate
knd certify candidates and have their
namea nlaced urjon the ballot for the No
vember election, shall have the right so to
do In the manner and under the conditions
therein prescribed.
At the general election in November. 190J,
In Pottawattamie county the total vote of
the county for governor waa J.738. t per
cent of which would 'be 194. The socialist
vote for governor In the county waa 163
sad that of the prohibition party waa 134,
both falling short of the required per
centage. On the other hand, it is contended that as
both parties cast a little more than t per
cent of the total vote for governor in l$0g
tn the state at large they are entitled to
have their candidates for the county offices
printed on the official primary election bal
lots under the party headings.
The prohibition party has named almost
a full county ticket, but the socialists have
not yet filed any nomination papers.

In the absence of Governor Cummtns
from the state house Saturday IJeutenant
Governor Warren Garst received the
flags that were carried In the Spanish
American war on the part of the state
and had them placed In the steel cases
prepared In the rotunda of the state
nouse. The ceremony was quit as Im
pressive as when the civil war flags
were placed In the cases prepared for
them a year or more ago. The flags
were received from Adjutant General
Thrift by the commanding officers of
the regiments and presented to . Lieu
tenant Governor Garst. Each commander
spoke briefly. In accepting the flags and
directing that they be deposited in the
cases Lieutenant Governor Garst spoke
in glowing terms of the valor of the men
who marched under the flags and of
their sacrifices, all tor the sake of an
oppressed humanity. . He told that he
remembered with pride that as chairman
of the appropriations committee of the
senate he ' had reported favorable a bill
for placing 1500,000 In the hands of the
governor for the use of the troops. Of
this only fl4,000 was used and this waa
later returned by the government, so that
the personal sacrifice of the men who
went from Iowa Is the only contribution
from this state.
On behalf of (the people of the state
he received the flags and gave aasuranca
that they would be safeguarded for all
time.

FORT DODGE. Ia.. April 38. (Special. )
A report received from a reliable source
says the Illinois Central Is contemplating
the annullment of two more local passenger
trains out of this city and the running of
the local passenger trains between Cherokee
and Sioux Falls every other day Instead
of daily. President Harahan, when Inter
viewed here this week, said that retrench
ment moves by the road would in the future
be governed by the volume of business. Ev
idently his Inspection of the rosd and con
ferences wlrh local officials hava given him
the impression that dull busness exists In
passenger traffic.
The two trains out of this city are No.
a, arriving from Dubuque at 11:50 a. m..
and No. S, returning at t:K p. m. If these
trains are taken off Chicago-Omaha express
trains Nos. 4 and ( will do the local work
now done by them. .The Cherokee trains
run each way daily except Sunday to Sioux
Falls and return. At present two crews ara
employed on the trains. If trains an run
only every other day but' one crew will be
needed. ,
The Central has already abolished two
local paaaenger trains between this city
and Omaha and two local paaaenger trains
bet ween Dubuque and Waterloo.
The Chicago Great Western, which par
allels the Illinois Central all the way across
the state, is still running Its full comple
ment of passenger trains.

THE STURDIEST peoples of the earth drink beer

When one needs more vitality, the Doctor says "drink beer."

The barley is food; the hops are a tonic. The trifle of
alcohol is an aid to digestion.
The proper drinking of beer but not the abuse of it is
good for the weak and the well. And not the least of the good
comes through flushing the system; in getting rid of the waste.
But a beer to be healthful needs to be pure. And it must
be well aged, else the after-result is biliousness.
. That is why we are so careful with Schlitz. We double
the necessary cost of our brewing to insure absolute purity;
And we age the beer for months before marketing.
