Public Library The public library, now open for patrons in the Chamber of Commerce, will be found a comfortable and well-lighted place for lovers of books, of which the shelves contain a carefully selected array of some 1500 volumes. There are as well many of the standard magazines, and daily and weekly papers. The library is clean and inviting, and a cosy reading room, comfortably heated evenings, is provided for patrons, where they may spend an hour or two in reading their favorite author or perusing the news of the day. Miss Jean Adams, the librarian, has made a hit in her position, and the orderly arrangement of the books, as well as the neat appearance of the interior has won for her high praise. The library is open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays from 2 to 7 p.m. Visitors will be welcome. Until the erection of the new Carnegie library, patrons will be served at the temporary quarters. Miss Adams is entitled to credit for the cleanly appearance and the neatness of the premises under her care. Mr. Crowther Seriously III Wm.

Mr. Funk is one of the best known Iowa editors, and was a year ago mentioned prominently in connection with the republican nomination for governor. On account of the factional fight between party leaders, he withdrew from the contest. He is traveling in California for the benefit of his health, and will prolong his visit probably several months. This is his second visit to the coast, and he may decide to remain until Admiral Evans and his fleet of battleships arrive. He states the Iowa people are keenly alive to the possibilities of war between the United States and Japan, although he is himself of opinion that the Mikado's people cannot be so insane as to court disaster in a scrap with this country. He says Iowa is for Taft, both the Allison and Cummings factions having declared for the war secretary. Mr. Funk is a well-informed and intelligent observer of the trend of current events not only in his state, but throughout the country, and it is a pleasure to converse with him.

The decision was handed down in the case of George Yung, the Orange wine-maker, accused of selling liquor unlawfully. Yung was arrested on a charge of selling liquor contrary to the county prohibition ordinance and was released on bond in the sum of $500 in the Justice Court at Orange. Later he surrendered himself to the Justice Court, and applied direct to the Court of Appeals for the writ. The appellant contended that the ordinance was illegal because it was passed and enacted in accordance with the provisions of section 13, of the County Government Act of 1897, which section had been declared unconstitutional. Oral arguments were made by District Attorney Davis for the people and C. W. Pendleton for the petitioner on December 19th, and the last brief was filed by Attorney Pendleton on December 16th.
