CX.KAJI tiAKIS, la,, Nov. 27. (Special.)
Good Thanksgiving news was received
from Bpokane, Wash., today In tho brief
message that W. Somervllle Colby was
still living. About six month ago the
new wa heralded over the country that
hehad been killed on his ranch. Hi
mother, who lived near him, knew that
he had received sovorat threatening tet
ter to vacate his claim or he would be
killed. He did not listen to the threat
and one morning, after an absence ot
some time, he was sought after at his
cottage, but could not bo found. After
duo time and long search It waa gener
ally believed that he had been killed,
and the mother commenced proceedings
to collect his life Insurance. It wa
learned a short tlmo ago that a man
answering his description was In attend
ance at one ot the state colleges and Dr.
Max Charlton, another Clear I.ake boy,
went and ' made the examination and
found the missing W. Somervllle Colby.
Colby professed that he did not know
his name and the opinion prevailed that
he wa mentally unbalanced and he Is
now In custody of officers. He wa for
a number of years county surveyor of
Cerro Gordo county. It Is thought that
the threat made upon his llfo and his
isolated life and the ranch ten or more
mile from neighbor, unseated his mind.

The State Board of Health Is entering
ui'on a campaign for securine all no.
nihlft Information relating to sanitary
conditions In the clUe of tho state and
ospecially with reference to drainage and
water. The last legislature directed th
state board to "use all means at Its com.
mana to make special effort to Improve
me sanitation and health conditions" of
the stato and appropriated money to bo
used in the employment of persons to
enforce sanitation where local boards are
unwilling to co-operate. Tho board hopes
10 oe am to use this money also In
making the Investigation and especially
in making analyses of water In the var
ious cities. Special attention Is to be
given to pollution of tho streams. Al
ready the board has secured maps of
various cities showing the drainage dis
tricts) and information as to garbage dis
posal and other matters and the work
has but Just started. There Is some com
plaint In some cities because of the falN
ure to havo this work done in other
years.
Plan to Chnnnre Insurance Lutt.
It Is known that for tho first time In
tho history of legislation on tho subject
of Insurance the old lino companies and
tho mutuals have reached an agreement
In favor of the repeal of tho Iowa law
which forbids combinations for the mak
ing of rate In Insurance, For a long
time the old lino companies have been
moving to have the law repealed. They
claim that as a matter of fact the law
prevent them doing business In the state
at fair rates and as a result the Iowa
companies aro being driven to the watl.
But the mutuals have always held out
for tho law. Now, at a recent meeting
ot tho association of mutuals, they came
out strongly for a repeal of tho law and
a new statute forbidding rate cutting or
deviation from the established rates
mado by some central authority. It Is
therefore expected that in the near fu
ture the anti-compact law will be re
pealed. Favor loirn. nntldlnir at Kxpositlon.
A representative of tho San Francisco
exposition enterprise is In the state and
engaged In visiting various commercial
oluba and booster organizations, with a
view to raising funds. In some way,
that Iowa may havo representation at
the exposition, two years hence. It Is
proposed that a meeting be held In Des
Moines at an early date for the purpose
of Interesting the business mon ot the
state In tho enterprse. The legislature re
fused to mako any appropriation for a
building, but authorized the city of
Waterloo to erect a building for the
state. If desired. But the Waterloo
scheme failed, also. Now It Is planned to
Talse money by popular subscription and
make an Iowa exhibit
Thorne stml Rlpler Correspond.
Chairman Clifford Thorne of tho Iowa
railroad commission, and E, P. Blpley.
president of the Sante Fe railroad, con
tinue their correspondence regarding rail
road values and the possible benefits to
be derived from government ownership.
In his last letter to Ripley, the Iowa
chairman states that In addition to thn
benotlts ot direct profits from the rail
road operation, the public would, under
government ownership, secure an Im
mense profit In the Increased value of the
lands owned by the railroads. For In
stance, tho lands of tho Northern Pacific
represent one-fifth of Its entire value.
Very much of the Increase of value on
some of the roads In Iowa was repre
sented by lands. The public would secure
whatever of Increase there might be as
to these.
Anticipate Increase In nates.
J. H. Henderson, commerce counsel for
Iowa, returned today from Washington,
where as a member of the committee
looking after rate matters, he attended
the preliminary hearing on the proposal
of eastern railroads for a 5 per cent In
crease In all their rates. The railroad
companies have started out with a strong
showing and It seems certain that un
less something new is turned up in the
case, that the commission will grant the
Increased rates In the east This will be
followed, In the opinion of the railroad
commissioners, with a case to secure an
advance In rates l,n the west.
Affect Thlrty-Ftve Other Law,
The petition for rehearing In the Des
Moines saloon case Indicates that If the
rule as applied here Is to prevail, then
there are thirty-five other acts ot the
legislature legalizing various official acts,
that will go to the discard of they are
attacked. The court held that tho legis
lature ha no right to legalise the acts
of a notary where the act of the notary
Is a port of a contract or agreement and
essential to the same. A great many
legalising acts have covered the same
ground and never before have been ques
tioned. YELLOW FEVER REPORTED
