SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM NEW PLAN OF GOVERNMENT Five Commissioners to Rule City of Des Moines. Des, Moines, June 2. —For the next slx years Des Moines will be ruled by a central form of city government composed of an elective commission of five. By a majority of 2,219 the city carried the so-called Des Moines plan, built similar to the Galveston and Los Angeles systems. The unofil- cial returns from every ome of the twenty-nine precincts give 6,044 in favor of the proposition and 4,143 against. It was the most exciting municipal election ever held in Jowa and the largest vote ever polled in the city showed the unusual interest aroused. Scores of women tried to vote, only to be turned away at the polls. It was virtually a fight between the politi- cians and the reformers and the re- formers won.- The new plan provides for a com- mission of five, who serve a term of two years. Each commissioner is glven a separate department of the city government after the board chooses a mayor from their number. They have the right of executive ses- sion, but the granting of any franchise must be left to & popular vote. The parties at the primaries meet on com- mon ground and choose ten candi- dates, who are then voted on at the spring election, five being chosen. The people at any time have power to oust any or all of the commission- ers by a petition signed by 25 per cent of the voters. CORNER FREIGHT TRAFFIG Vanderbilts Secure Control of Chicago Belt Lines. Chicago, June % !—Final steps are being taken in New York to complete & $70,500,000 railway coup, which the Vanderbilts have engineered to secure the lion's share of the tremendous traffic whiclt originates In Chicago and the surrounding territory, as well as the great tonnage which passes through and around Chicago. The culmination of the financial transac- tlon of this great traffic deal, which William H. Newman, president of all New York Central lines, has been suc- cessfully playing in the interests of the Vanderbilts, is the leasing, with right to purchase, of the outer belt line from the Chicago Junction Rail- way company. Supplementing this is the leasing for a term of ninety-nine years of a part of the tracks of the Chicago Ter- minal Transfer Railway company, which forms the connecting link in the complete inner belt railway sys- tem which the Vanderbilts are secur- ing. » Fresident John A. Spoor of the Belt road confirmed the lease and declared that before the end of the year the outer Delt line, which his company now owns and operates, would pass entircly into the possession of the New York Central lines. e FLAT TWO-CENT FARE.

Detroit, June 24—Specials to the Free Press tell of a severe electrical storm that passed over the lower pen- insula of Michigan. At Kalamazoo, Frank Stirner was struck by lightning ; while trimming a tree. He was bad- ly burned -about the body. The shock left him clinging to the branches of the tree bereft of his reason. George Hawley, a farmer, was struck by lightning and killed while plowing near Kalamazoo and Mrs. Stephen . Curtiss was struck by light- ; ning and killed while talking to her husband in their home at Onamay, Cheboygan county. Mr. Curtis was stunned, but not seriously hurt.

At Vandalia, in Cass county, Mrs. | James O. @raham was thrown Into | Donnel’s lake by a stroke of lightning. ! Her husband recovered her apparently | lifeless body, but it was said late at night that the woman’s plunge in the lake may have minimized the shock and that though she was a long time unconscious there are hopes of her reJ covery. BIG SURPLUS A PUZZLE. Immense Flood of Revenue Rouring! Into Treasury. ‘Washington, June 24.—Nobody con- nected with the government’s fiscal business is able to find a figure of speech strong and graphic enough to adequately portray the immense flood j of revenue that pours with ever in- creasing stream into the federal treas- ury. The close of the fiscal year is but a few days ahead.” It will find a surplus of about $80,000,000 despite the fact that the government is pay- ing the cost of the Panama canal out of current receipts. Two years ago there was a deficit. There was talk that it was dangerous. Something must be done. Then the tide turned, receipts went larger and | larger month by month and despite the $2,000,000,000 session of congress since the surplus 1s beyond all Han- -| agement. The problem of what to do with the money is certain to be a serious one for a long timo unless business de- pression changes very notably the course of things. » Bound for San, Francisco.

How speedy thy approach! How stealthy thy steps! How- uncer-| tain thy hour! How universal thy sway! The powerful cannot escape thee; the wise know not how to avold | thee; the strong have no strength to oppose thee; the rich cannot bribe thee with their treasure. Thou art a hammer that always strikes, a sword that is never dull, a net into which all fall, a prison into which all must en- ter, a sea on which all must venture, a penalty which all must suffer, a trib- ute which all must pay. Oh, death, death! Implacable enemy to the hu- man race! Why didst thou enter into the world ?—Luis de Granada. H. A. SIMONS, Agent.
