1884 · There is now a Capital Building
The capitol building in Des Moines originally had a budget of $1,500,000 but complications arose because of the need of a redesign. The building was dedicated on January 17, 1884, but it wasn’t completed until 1886. On January 4, 1904, a fire started and swept through the areas that housed the Supreme Court and Iowa House of Representatives. A major restoration was performed and documented, with the addition of electrical lighting, elevators, and a telephone system. By the early 1980s, the sandstone exterior of the Capitol had started deteriorating and prompted the installation of canopies to protect pedestrians from falling rubble. The entire reconstruction process took around 18 years to complete.
1906 · Saving Food Labels

Name Meaning
English, German, Dutch, and Jewish (Ashkenazic): nickname for a lively person or for a traveling entertainer, from an agent derivative of Middle English, Middle High German springen, Middle Dutch springhen, Yiddish shpringen ‘to jump or leap’. The surname of German origin is also found in France (Alsace and Lorraine), Poland, Czechia, and Slovenia (see also 4 below). In part, it is a Gottscheerish (i.e. Gottschee German) surname, originating from the Kočevsko region in Lower Carniola, Slovenia (see Kocevar ).
English: occupational name from Middle English springer(e) ‘dancer(?), fencer(?)’; ‘one who traps animals or birds(?)’, a derivative either of Middle English springen ‘to spring up, leap’ (Old English springan) or Middle English spring ‘dance, fencing stroke, bird snare’.
English: perhaps a topographic name from Middle English springer, for someone who lived by a plantation of young trees or by a spring (Middle English spring ‘young tree, young plantation, copse’, ‘spring, source of a stream’; compare Spring ). This type of formation, where the suffix -er is added to a topographic term, is especially frequent in Surrey, Sussex, and Hampshire, but no evidence has yet been found to support this derivation of Springer.
