Fred Fowler, jani- tor of the Shugart block, and Attorney Fremont Benjamin appear as plaintifts in both suits. The motive for the suits Is not disclosed, but the petitions recite that permanent in- Junctions against both places will be asked. Mr. Benjamin stated that in bringing these proceedings he was acting for other clients besides Fowler, but declined to offer any further Information. He sald that applea- tion for temporary Injunctions pending the hearing on the applications for permanent restraining orders would be made to the court Saturday. The hearing on the per- manent injunctions will be had at the No- vember term of court. W. A. Wells, local agent for the Storz company, and Mrs. Maggie Buck are made party defendants to the suits. The saloon bullding at Scott street and Broadway is a handsome three-story structure and was recently erected by the Storz company. The proprietors of both saloons were much sur- prised when served with notices of the suits and are at a loss to understand in what manner they have incurred the dls- pleasure of the plaintiffs, The petitions in the two sults brought by August Doerner against his wife's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Julius Korgan, were filed In the district court yesterday. In one suit young Doerner asks $10,000 damages for being arrested last December on a charge of being Insane. #2500 damages for the alleged allenation of his wife's affections and for alleged defamation of his character.

WEBSTER CAMPAIGNS IN I0WA Omaha Man Draws Good Crowd at Day Meeting at Guthrie Center. GUTHRIE CENTER, Ta., Oct. 14—Hon. John L. Webster of Omaha spoke to the re- publicans of Guthrie Center and the sur- rounding country this afternoon and deliv- ered an address which greatly pleased his hearers. He Is a speaker of much force and his points were all well fortified by facts and strongly stated. His audience was large for an afternoon meeting and he held the closest attention of all throughout his address. In speaking of monopolies and trusts Mr. Webster sald: The democratic party charges that the re- publican tariff system fosters monopolies and is the father of trusts. To get rid of these evils it would abolish the tariff on every article that enters Into the production of these corporations, even though it should work financial ruin’to hundreds of thou- sands of people engaged in like industries, The republican party is willing to take off the duty where it will strike a blow at monopoly and benefit the people. It struck such a blow at the coal monopoly, and it will continue to strike such blows wherever circumstances justify it. The republican party s as much opposed aa I8 the democratic party to unlawful combinations of capital, whether formed for the purpose of creating oppressive monopolies or under the gulse of trusts exacting from the people unjust tribute to enable them to pay dividends upon fictitious capitalization of stock. ut the republican party is not opposed to the combination of energies, whether it be in the form of muscle, brain or capital, when used for proper purposes and for the Rccompliskment of legltimate ends. But we must draw the line somewhere. When we undertake to complain of monop- olles and trusts, it requires judgment and skill and discernment, just as It required skill and discernment for the republican party at different times to establish appro- priate tariff systems to bulld up American manufacturing industries. The republican party 18 not a worshipper of particular schedules of rates. These it has changed in years gone by, and these it will change as circumstances call for it; but these changes will always be along the line of protective principles. But at the same time, when the republican party finds that unlawful and unjust monopolies are created, no matter under whatever form or under whatever name, it will take them up root and branches if you will but give it time and opportunity. RELATIVES TAKE NO STEPS First and Second Wives of Iows Man Dead Too Long for In- vestigation. NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—While relatives of the first and second wives of Ebenezer 8. Lilydenburg, who Is under arrest in EMdora, Ia., on a charge of murdering his third wife, feel the pecullar circumstances surrounding thelr taking off, no official steps have been taken in Brooklyn regard- ing the matter.

REPUBLICANS SMOTHER FACTIONALISM Fraud Order Issued to Prevent Letson Balliett from His B Carrying Through Mail (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Ia., Oct. 14.—(Special)— A new feature was Introduced into state politics today when the candidates on the state ticket and legisiative nominees re- cleved a communication ostensibly from a legislative committee from the Trades and Labor assembly of Marshalltown, in which they demand of the candidates, without regard to poiltics, that they state their po- sition on the question of organization of workingmen Into unions. They submit a series of questions coverlng the question of unfon labor, and ask candldates to state whether they would belong to a union it eligible, whether they were ever engaged in any trade or craft, whether they believe in government control of the natural in- dustries, whether they belleve in govern- ment by Injunction, whether they favor the Initiative and referendum, the election of United States senators by direct vote, whether convict labor is right and their position on the eight-hour bill pending in congress. It is stated that a majority of the candidates will ignore the ques- tions. An arrangement was perfected by the republican state committee today which will go far to indicate that personal antagonlsms have been supk in the pres- ent political campaign. The committee has arranged that on the evening of Oc- tober 3, Governor A. B. Cummins and Con- gressman R. G. Cousins will speak from the same platform in Cedar Raplds./ The governor, when approached on the subject, at once agreed to the arrangement, but it Is understood that not until he had consulted with the state committee did the congressman give his consent. « It was Cousins who, in the Tepublican state con- vention, delivered an address which was heralded far and wide as sounding the keynote of opposition to Governor Cum- mins in the state. This meeting at Cedar Rapids has been arranged to show that factional lines have been swept away. Lieutenant Governor John Herriott 18 to open the campaign at Casey on Satur- day evening.
