Mayor Maloney waa present by Invitation at a meeting laat night of the Council Bluffa Dalrymen'a asaociation, now in proc esa of organisation. The meeting waa held at the Jorgensen milk depot on South Main street and a number of the local purveyors of milk were present. - This move on the part of the dairymen to organise waa brought about by the gen eral demand for a strict Inspection of the local dairies by some officer acting under authority from the city. The dairymen, it was stated, were opposed to municipal leg islation providing for such Inspection, and accordingly decided to organise so as to be better prepared to resist any Intrusion on their buainess. Mayor Maloney had a heart-to-heart talk with the milk vendors and suggested that as soon as they completed their organization they appoint a commit- tee to onfer with the city council. The mayor assured the dairymen that tha city council did not propose to paas any ordl .. ,V. ,7 ., nance or measure that would In any way Injure the lawful selling of milk and cream. There was a general demand, however, he explained, for a more thorough Inspection of the dairies and the dairy cows. i Real Estate Transfers.

INTIMATIONS OF SCHEME AFLOAT Appointment of t arator for Histor ical Xnclety ta Still In I" he Air and la Not Likely to Bo Settled Soon. (From a'siaff Correr',"l,ent DES MOINES. May 3(l.-(Fpeclal.)-Gav-ernor B. F. Carroll is expected next week to name the seven members of the commis sion for the conservation of natural re sources In Iowa. Thi3 commlsilen, which is to serve, without compensation, was pro vided by1 the last legislature. Its duties are to make Investigations, surveys, etc., of waterways and other natural resources of the state nrd make a report, tt is understood there are many applications be fore the governor for positions on this commission. The membership of the commission will be watched with considerable Interest. In view of the recent article by Judson Welle- ver, formerly of Iowa, in an eastern maga- sine In which he declared the westing- house people are trying to get control of all the water power In the United States. He claims that the transmission of power is n w practically controlled by these peo ple and that If they can get control of all the water power In the country they will have tha biggest trust America has ever known. , .' - It Is understood that other states aa well as Iowa have commissions appointed to Investigate the natural resources, and while the legislatures may have been Innocent enough and had the mont patriotic motives, there are those who are asking the question, if It Is not possible these commissions WBre created through the influence of some great water power organlaatlon feat wishes the river surveys and reports made by nation and state without expense to them. It Is a well known fact that during the recent legislature prominent men who do not generally give up their time unless It la for business enterprises, spent days urging the members of the legislature to pass a bill providing the creation of this commission and also urging the governor to recommend such. Whether theae same people have been active In recommending members of the commission Is unknown. However, In view of the exposition made by Mr. Wellever In his, article, the people of Iowa will be Interested In seeing men appointed on the commission whose motives can be unquestioned and who would with hold Ita information from private corpora tion until made public through the proper state source. t'uratorshln I'p to Board. Governor Carroll. It Is rumored, has re linquished to the State Historical board the right to aprolnt a curator of the his torical department. The law gives him the right t make the appointment of the head of this department, which Is under the con trol of the board as a whole. Other mem bers felt the whole board should have the selection. Governor Carroll learning the attitude of the members readily yielded his appointive power, It hi said, and haa now conaented to name as curator whoever the board select. The matter, it Is expected, will now be delayed to June 1. though meetings of the board are being held -every- few days. The members are not Inclined to rush the mat ter of making an appointment. It has been suggested that the State Historical society at Iowa City should be combined with the atate historical department in Dea Molnea, and both put under one management. Un der such a plan the state historical publi cations would be Issued from this city. Some of the board members are inclined to think that In view of this fact a curator should be selected with especial fitness to conduct this publication feature as well as the management of the historical depart ment. There Is a difference of opinion and as yet the decision has nut simmered down to any particular candidates. There Is no criticism of Mi. Harlan, who 14 the acting curetor, and, Indeed, there are some of the members who believe he will be the ulti mate choice of the board. By combining the two positions the salary might be raised to a very good sum. The curator now la provided a salary of but $1,600 per year. Pnarlllat Escapes Prison.
