T0 BE SACRIFICED Many Demoorats Who Think They Waat to Run on the County Ticket. INTEREST CENTERS ON TWO PLACES Clerk the Distriet Court Positions on the Ticket Most Coveted by the Demo- erats. of the The nominations to be handed out by the democratic county convention at Neola Saturday will not go begging, as there are mumerous aspirants in the fleld and for at least two of the nominations there promises to be contests. The nominations for clerk of the district court and county attorney are the two most eagerly sought ‘umr Louls Zurmuehlen, jr., of this city is the most active local candidate for the momi- nation for clerk of the district court and e has for several weeks been laying his wires to secure it. Brooks Reed, chairman of the democratic county central commit- tee, also has an eye on this nomination, He s of the opinion that if nominated he might be elected, reasoning that the simi- larity of names might lead to enough re- publicans mistaking bim for the republican nominee to bring him out a winner. For this reason, he says, the democrats ought to nominate him in preference to amy of the other candidates. F. B, LeFeber of Walnut is the east end of the county can- didate for this nomination and he will go into the convention with the Knox town- ship delegation and possibly several other east end townships supporting him. Mr. LeFeber {s agent of the Rock Island rail- road at Walnut and this is his first entry into county politics. John Mich on, editor of the Council Bluffs Weekly Tribune, was an aspirant for the nomination of clerk of the district court, but retired from the race in favor of Zurmuehlen, and is now out after the nomination for county auditor. Michaelson, however, has not a clear field, as Thomas R. Drake, a well known typo and district organiser of the International Typographical union; is & can- didate for the nomination for county auditor and it s more than likely that the east end of the county will have a can- didate before the convention. It is sald that falling to secure the nom!- nation for county auditor Drake would be satisfied to recelve that for county recorder, as up to yesterday there appeared to be no other candidate for this nomination. Many Ambitious Lawyers. For the momination for: county attorney there is a ‘big fleld 6f efitries, but how many starters will be remains to be seen when the convention gets down to work. Harry L. Robertson, mayor of Neola, and a former republican, has been grooming, it is sald, for several years for this nomi- nation, and it is said further that his fail- ure to secure it from the republicans was the reason why he flopped over to the demo- erats. Roscoe Bartom, former mayer of Avoca, s sald to have cast longing eyes on this nomination and will attempt to wrest it from Robertson. J. E. F. McGee, formerly judge of the superior court, has been prominently talked of in connection with this nomination, but so far he has turned a deaf ear to the requests of M friends that he be a candidate. While he would have no objection to serving as county attorney and incidentally drawing the salary attached to the office, he is of the opinion that this is not a demogratic year and he does not desire to be a can- didate just for the honmor or fun of the thing, Local democrats insist that the nomina- tion for county attorney should go to John P. Organ of this city, who formerly held the office. They clalm that he would be the strongest candidate the party could put up, but Mr. Organ says he is not seek- ing office at this particular time and it is doubtful if he will permit his pame to g0 before the convention. T. E. Casady is sald to be not averse to taking the nomination If it is given him, and friends of 8. B. Wadsworth, former city attorney, are urging his candidacy, .but Mr. Wads worth declines to be considered as an aspirant for the nomination. It was said yesterday on the streets that Mr. Wada- worth’'s name would in all probability be brought before the couventlon, and that if it was, the nomination would llkely fall to him. For the nominations for two ‘members of the County Board of Supervisors the | names of 8. G. Underwood, A. W. Wyman and A. C. Grabham have been mentioned with more or less frequency. It is con- ceded that one nomimation will 89 to the east end of the county. * The convention will meet at the opera house in Neola at 10 a.'m.

Enjoln y Killpack i brought suit the district gourt in the name of Pottawattamie county to restraln the Mason City & Fort Ratlroad company from obstructing s public high- way in the eastern part of Garner town- ship. It is alleged that the rallroad has driven piling in the highway without leav- ing & suficlent rosdway between for ordi- Bary trafic. On bebalf of the county it is asserted that the piling is not for the pur- pose of ralsing or lowering the grade of thé public highway to enable the rallroad .-'Y',u to pass over or under the same, but is of & permanent nature. It Is also acserted that ubless restralned the Mason City & Fort Dodge railroad will obstruct in a sim- flar manner numerous other highways in the county and the court 18 asked to issue an injunetion and order requiring the rafl- road to remove the obstruction in the Garner township highway. The sult was brought on the complaint of farmers living in Garner township who have been shut off from using the road in question. N. Y. Plumbing Co., telephone 250. Gravel roofing, A.

SIOUX CITY, Ia,, July 17.—~(Special Tele- gram.)—A few days ago James L. Rock- well brought suit for divorce against his wife on the ground that a former wifte, whom he had supposed dead, was living. Now he has brought another suit against the former wife on the ground of deser- tion. With both cases in court, Mr. Rock- well is placed in the peculiar position of suing for two divorces at the same time. Rockwell married his present wife in Fort Madison ten years ago. He claims he married the first wife in Sunbury, Pa., in 1871, and that ehe deserted him in 1880.

SOME DISCREPANCY IN FIGURES Telephone Strike Not Yet Settled— Fears Expressed that He May Have Been Murdered. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, July 17.—(Special.)—A. . Clarke, gencral solicitor for the Minneap- olls & St. Louls raliroad, made an ex- tended argument before the executive council today on the question of rallroad assessments and principally on how to ar- rive at the value of railrond property. He rejected the net earnings and the gross tor neither would do alons, the members of the council must use horse sense in estimating the value of the property for taxation. They should consider the physical comdition, the location, the gross earnings and all other elements taken together. He contended that taking earnings as the sole guide and applylng it to farm values, the result would be astonishing. He asserted that statistics carefully collected show that tho average net earnings of Jowa farm lands that are farmed are about $8 an acre. Henry Wallace, who was present, took ex- ception to this and said he would be glad it It was true. In the course of the dlis- cussion Governor Cummins asked a ques- tion and ' presented a problem to the lD!lkH’ want to ask the gemtlemen who a talking here,” he stated, “whether or not they will agree that we should take a broad view of the question of value rather than to confine ourselves to the orts as we find them; whether or not we should take into consideration our gemeral knowledge of conditions in this section of the country in determining values? For instance, there is some discrepancy in th reports on gross earnings. Taking the systems of which the Iowa roads form a part, and they run into a half dozen or Now the /reports show that on all the systems there are 37,773 miles of road, of which 25.7 per cent was in lowa. The total gross earnings of these systems last year was $260,855,513, and if the propo: tion for Iowa was given on a mileage basis, Iowa’'s share would be $66,839,763. But the share which the companies report as belonging to Iowa s actually but §65,- 984,115. Should not members of the coun- cil consider this discrepancy of $14,845,648 and try to arrive at some knowledge of why the earnings per mile in Iowa are reported less than in systems which run into Oklahoma, Texas, Wyoming and other states? Should not the council take note of thelr practical knowledge of conditions they exist and make investigations out- slde of the reports made?” Mr. Clarke insisted that the reports as made e correct and give to Iowa its fair share of the earnings; that they con- taln, in fact, all the information which the raflroad companies have on the sub- ject. The state ghould be credited with the exact earnings. He contended that the companies pay as much taxes in Iowa as thelr fair share .of business and ought not to be assessed Bigher. M. C. Woodruff, for the Great Western, made an extended argument along the same lne. The hllr\n‘ on the general question of rallroad rates was concluded by epeeches by W. W. Baldwin for the Burlington and Henry Wallace speaking for the farmers. Tomorrow the council will take up the hearing for individual roads separately. Report from Glenwood. The annual report of the Institution for the Feeble Minded at Glenwood, made to the State Board of Control, shows that during the year there were enrolled a total of 1,001 persons, of whom 967 remained at the end of the year, an Increase of thirty-two for the year. The average at- tendance for the year was 886. The report shows & satisfactory condition of affairs. The work on the code supplement, which is required by law to be out September 1 next, is making slow progress owing to the delay of the code commission in hav- ing copy furnished. The work of anno- tation of the new matter is taking more time than expected. The work of print- ing the new edition of the code was lald aside for the supplement, but may be taken up in. May Not Exact Cash Damages. The members of the executive council bave had several brief conferences in re- gard to the terms upon which they will allow the Burlington Rallroad company to g0 through the state ground at Glenwood, but have not yet rendered a formal de- cision. It is now believed that they will merely require of the Burlington company a contract to make the deep cut through the grounds in a certain way and fix up thelr right-of-way in & manner htly as possible and to bulld good bridges and subways and maintain fences. This will be in lleu of any cash consideration for the land given to the rallroad company. Members of the council have expressed themselves as belleving that the city of Glenwood is as yaluable to the state in a general way the institution near the city and the state has a right to consider the Interests of the people of Glenwood. Strfke Not Yet Settled President Yost of the Iowa Telephone company has not yet arrived in Des Moin though persoms interested ‘in the atr! say that he is expected. Others declare that the whole matter has been left with General Manager Smith of Davenport, who refuses to treat in any way with the strikers. On the other hand the Trade and Labor assembly people have started a movement for a gemeral boycott of the companies in which the Bell telephone peo- ple are interested and have lssued clrcu- lars which they are sending broadcast over the state calling for & union of forces against the telephone company. It is be- lieved here that if President Yost would take hold of the matter personally he would reach an agreement with the strikers in @ short time. The work on the Mutual has been re- sumed. George H. Warren, an insurance man well known and in good circumetances, has mysteriously disappeared, leaving his fam- tly distracted, It is believed he has been drowned or been murdered.
