DES MOINES, IOWA, FRIDAY, JULY 8, 1904.
EDITORIALS.
Rev. H. W. Porter, the new minister who has been called to the pastorship of Union Congregational church, arrived last Saturday accompanied by his family and preached his initiatory sermon Sunday morning to a large and interesting crowd. A crowded house greeted him Sunday evening and his sermon was a strong, able and instructive christian sermon, which pleased his audience.
Rev. Porter is one of the most scholarly ministers that ever came here, and has but few equals among the white clergymen. He is a graduate from Atlanta university and the theological course from Taledego college. His wife is amiable and highly cultured. One of her sisters is a teacher in Baltimore public school and other one teacher in the South. They are now spending their vacation in Chicago attending the North-Western university. The reverend and wife expect to soon be at home to their friends.
DRIVEN FROM CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Prominent Colored Women Make Appeal to Cardinal Gibbons.
Baltimore, July 4.—Because the wife of a colored physician and the mother of one of the two colored Roman Catholic priests in America were ordered out of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, appeal has been taken to Cardinal Gibbons.
Mrs. W. T. Carr, Mrs. Dorsey, the mother of Father Dorsey, and Mrs. Thomas W. Turner, instructor in the colored high school, went to mass at the Immaculate Conception Church Sunday a week ago. Mrs. Carr says she was ordered to leave and Mrs. Dorsey was told to go while kneeling at prayer. Mrs. Turner and her sister went to the church again last Sunday. They say that Father Donoghue came hastily down the isle and said:
"Get up and go out of this church, I don't want any colored people in this church.
It is our opinion that perhaps this is the first time that persons of our race and members of the catholic church have ever been refused permission to worship in their churches. We are anxious to hear what Cardinal Gibbons' reply will be, as we believe that he will not uphold race discrimination in any of their churches. — Editor.
In an age of celebrations of centennials and semi centennials it is appropriate that the semi-centennial of the Iowa State Fair should be celebrated this year by Iowa people with a state fair that cannot be surpassed anywhere in the world. This is the high aim and purpose of those who are planning for the Iowa fair of 1004. To make the occasion noteworthy it is proposed that there shall be a reunion of all those who assisted in the formation of the first fair or attended the same, and especially of the exhibitors. Not very many, it is anticipated, will be found to attend this remarkable reunion; and yet, Secretary Simpson has already received letters from a number of those who would be eligible to participate in this gathering. The first state fair probably drew from at most a dozen counties in the southeastern part of the state, and most of the persons who attended live there now. But the names of the survivors will be secured as far as possible and a reunion be arranged for all who can attend the semi-centennial of the state fair organization.

The above cut represents one of Iowa's economical and substantial young men, Mr. Walker of Marshalltown, Iowa, who was recently elected W. M. of Eureka Lodge, A. F. and A.

Claim Discrimination Retards the Progress of the Race.
We deplore the fact that our skilled and educated laborers are not accorded the same opportunity to earn a livelihood that is accorded to those of the dominant race, who have had similar preparation and training; and call upon all fair-minded employers of labor, trained, skilled or professional who do not believe it right to, by thus discriminating, drive our boys to acts of lawlessness and our girls to lives of shame, to allow merit, and merit only, to be the criterion by which all applicants for positions.
The foregoing resolution was adopted by the Aro-American council at their session at Burns N. E. church recently. The passage of the resolutions was the signal for much enthusiasm. The resolutions contained the following:
We affirm and indorse the resolutions and declarations in the public address issued by this council at its second annual session in this city on August 27, 1903 and congratulate ourselves upon the fact that the declaration contained in said address demanding the reduction of southern representation in congress, as provided for by section 2 of the fourteenth amendment, has been approved by the national republican party and has, in substance, been incorporated into its platform issued at its convention at Chicago June 22, 1904, and we reiterate that we will and do hereby advise our government to accept adherence to said declaration and to positively refuse to support any party or candidate who fails to guard the rights, civil, political or otherwise, of all American citizens, whomsoever wheresoever.
We congratulate the negroes of Iowa upon the progress that they have made during the past year along industrial, business and professional lines, and exhort them to continue to improve their condition in these respects by instructing their children in habits of industry and economy and by establishing and patronizing their business and professional enterprises. We also congratulate the negroes of the state upon the progress that they are making intellectually and morally, and upon the fact that during the past year a number of our boys and girls have been graduated from the public and high schools and several from the various colleges and universities of the state, which is abundant evidence of the fact that we are educating the brain as well as the heart. S. Joe Brown, chairman, Rev. O. A. Johnson, I. M. Jones and C. M. Hendricks, committee.
This was the third annual session of the state Afro-American council and was called to order by B's president, Attorney George H. Woodson of Muchikonock. There were many delegates in attendance. The president in his address made an appeal to the colored people of the state to acquire and invest in a business block in Des Moines would be a good investment. An address given by S. Joe Brown, president of the local council, was responded to by E. M. Hendricks of Saylor. The meeting was addressed by Rev. H. W. Porter, the new pastor of Union Congregational church, who has just arrived from Charleston, S. C. There were addresses in the afternoon by Mrs. H. S. Graves, president of the Iowa Federation of Afro-American Association of Akron, president of the state council. Rev. Henry Cravens, Rev. O. A. Johnson and Mr. J. B. Rush.
At the evening session the principal address was delivered by Edward A. Carter, Ph. B., the young negro who graduated with honors from the college of liberal arts at the State university last year, and who is now a student in the college of medicine at Iowa City. His subject was "The Negro and the Fourth of July," which was an earnest as well as eloquent appeal to the patriotism of the negro. Other speakers at the evening session were Editor John L. Thompson of the Iowa State Bystander, who recounted some experiences at the republican convention in Chicago sever-

From The St. Louis Star June 7th. Kiralfy's now famous "Louisiana Purchase Spectacle" is beginning to attract large houses to the Odeon theater, which it truly merits, for certain-
Price, Five Cents.
ly it is not only the greatest, but the most magnificent spectacular production that has ever been put on in this country. It is so bewilderingly beautiful in every particular that it cannot fail to please the most fastidious. Everything has now been whipped into the proper shape—the ballets and ensembles show plainly the effect of the strenuous and persistent labor of Bolossy Kirafy. The leading parts are ably portrayed by the Misses Belmont, Burt Robinson and McGane, and the mimic and pantomine work in the hands of Messrs. Franciola Sartorius and St. Elaim is ably done. The singing of Granville Lane and the ballet dancing by La Mora is worthy of the special praise.
Arrangements have been made to accommodate the outside public whereby they can reserve their seats 4 weeks in advance by mailing post office money order to Roy Crawford, Manager Press Bureau Department, Odeon Theater, St. Louis, Mo. Prices are 50c, 75c, $1.00 $1.50. Box seats $2.00. Matinees 25c to 1.00.
"A WOMAN'S HONOR."
The drama, 'A Woman's Honor,' was presented by the Monday Night club to a large and appreciative audience at St. Paul's A. M. E. church Thursday evening.
The entertainment was under the direction of Mrs. S. Joe Brown, the president of the club, and the cast, which was an exceptionally strong one, was composed entirely of members of the club with the exception of Mr. Edward A. Carter of Buxton, who

appeared in the role of Dr. Gillas Hall.
All the characters acquitted themselves well and the entire production was pronounced by all who witnessed it as one of the best ever presented in the city.
Primarily before the curtain Prof. Geo I. Lolt sang in his own inimitable way and to the gratification of all present.
Master James Windsor and Mr. O. J. Gross furnished piano and violin solos between the acts, and were both greeted with hearty applause.
Mrs. Wm. Smith, pianist, accompanied the artists and dispensed charming music at the intervals between the acts, as only she can.
The club realized the neat sum of $53.15 on the entertainment, of which $50 was paid on the new $300 piano which they recently purchased and presented to the church, leaving a balance due on sald instrument of only $50.

MADE DARE-DEVIL ATTEMPT.
Japanese Torpedo Boats Enter Port
Arthur Harbor.
St. Petersburg, July 7—A few
nights ago Admiral Togo attempted
to repeat the Japanese exploit, with
torpedo boats at Wel Hai Wel during
the ChineseJapanese war by sending
torpero boat. destroyers into the har
dor of Port Arthur for the purzose of
sinking ships at thelr anchorage, but
the attempt resulted in disastrous
failure. Four torpedo boat destroyers
succeeded in creeping Into the harbor,
which was not protected by booms,
Dut only one escaped. 1'wo were sunk
by the shore batteries and one was
crippled. ‘The reckless bravery of
the Japanese in going to almost. cer-
tain’ destruction excites nothing but
admiration here. The channel at Port
Ardiur is so tortuous and strewn
with wrecks without that evidently It
was regaried as unnecessary to use
a Doom. On account of the difficulty
fn getting into the harbor the feat is
looked upon in naval circles to bo
fully as daring as that of the Japan-
ese at Wel Hal Wel, where the tor-
pedo boats, in a storm and covered
with ice, were jumped over the booms
protectiig the’ harbor and destroyed
Chinese warships. So far as known
the Japanese torpedo boat destroyers
did “not even succeed fn launching
torpedoes.

Dubuque, July 8—While pursuing
fames Reed, who had threatened to
till his wife and small child, shortly
after 7 o'clock p. m., Patrolman Daniel
Norton was shot through the heart
of a Norton lured. Reed is a construction foreman and
was doing work for the Standard
Telephone company. He was addicted
to drink and it was while latexi-
tated that he returned to his home
undetested to take the life of his
wife and child. Fearing that he
joined Norton.
The policeman went to the Reed some in the basement of the building it 930 Bluff street and attempted to retest Reed. Reed saw the policeman approaching and he ran to the his way up. Norton followed quickly and was seemingly gaining on Reed, as the man, apparently at bay, turned around and without a word of warning leveled a six-sixer at the offence, through the victim's heart and heank over dead.
Reed, armed with the six-sixer and a rife, rushed into the street and after firing four shots in front of the Wales hotel ran down to Washburn, an old jung man who was standing about forty yards away from him. The shots went wide of their mark.
In the meanwhile a big crowd had gathered and the daring ones began to press in and they but a hurly expressman drew his weight onto Reed's back and brought him to the ground with awful force. The police were notified and it took three officers to handle the prisoner. He tried hard to gain liberty, but he was landed safely by others.
Norton was given medical attention, but life was extinct and the inquest commenced. Great excitement prevailed as Reed was taken through the hospital, the policeman was murdered until it was announced by the doctor—in his cell in the city jail Reed is apparently unconcerned over the murder. He was not fully recovered from his alcohol and will not speak of anything.
YOUNG GIRL DISAPPEARS.
Fear Felt That She Is Procurer's Vic-
Centerville, July 8—Miss Emma Davidson, an unusually bright and pretty girl, the daughter of W. R. Davidson, a prominent farmer living four miles from Centerville, peared. No definite knowledge of her fate can be learned by her nearly frantic parents. There is reason to believe that she has been enticed away from home, and, according to one person, has seen to take a train in Centerville in company with a strange man. The girl's clothing was discovered on the banks of the Chariton river, about a mile from the Davidson home. She was seen on any trace of the girl or her body, and the hundred or more farmers who joined in the hunting expedition have grown discouraged. It is believed here that the clothes were left on the bank, and that the girl had committed suicide.
Either the girl's father or a friend will go to St. Louis to make a search for the girl there. According to one report, the girl had received offers of city and it is surmised that she may have fallen a victim to a procurer. Miss Davidson is about 17 years of age. She left home last Monday, saying she was going into the woods to see if she had not been seen by her parents since.

Claude Dean of Dunlap Perilises in Railway Wreck.
Omaha, Neb. July 6—Freight train No. 114 on the Northwestern main line, east coast, was badly wrecked three miles east of Logan at the over head crossing of the Illinois Central. At this point it met freight train No. 119, going west on the other part of the double track. A freight car from the track was driven from the track by a broken car wheel, and landing on the other track was struck by the engine of No. 119, and as a result the engine and fourteen cars were ditched, and six cars of the train were carried from the track.
Three boys were stealing, a ride from Missouri Valley to Dunlap, and one of them, Claude Dean, was killed in the wreck and his body burned in the fire which followed the collision, the Glenn (former owner) of the boys was injured, and was taken to the hospital in Carroll.

GREAT OCEAN
HORROR OCCURS
Six Hundred Lives Are Lost Off the Coast of Scotland.
THREE AMERICANS ARE LOST
Danish Steamer Norge Carried a Crew of Fifty and the Oldest Danish Steamer in the Ocean Passenger Business.
Stormoway, Scotland, July 1.—One hundred and one survivors of the Danish steamer Norge have been landed here.
The British steamer Coronva, from Leith, July 1, for Montreal, brought in thirty-two shortly before noon. She picked them up from a boat Saturday evening westward of the butt of Levis. They were in a wooflight, neatly all of them being made One dead child was with the party.
Shortly afterwards the German Steamer Enge arrived with sixteen persons rescued from the Norges life boat. They all were terrily exhausted.
The Cervona proceeded on her voyage Steamer Enge carried with sixteen survivors of the Danish steamer.
London, July 5.—More than 700 Danish and Norwegian emigrants bound for New York are believed to have been drowned in the north Atlantic, where souls on board the Danish steamer Norge, which left Copenhagen on June 22, only twenty-seven are known to be alive and for the rest no hope is held out.
They seen the Norge was sinking where she struck on the isle of Rockall, whose isolated peak raises itself from a deadly Atlantic reef some 290 miles off the west coast of Scotland.
They Tuesday the Norge, which was out of her course in heavy weather, ran onto the Rockall reef, which in the distance loo s like a ship under hatchways became clogged. Quickly backed off, but the heavy seas in through a rent in her bows. The emigrants who were then awaiting breakfast below ran on deck. The hatchways became clogged. They ran to go down by the head. Eight boats were lowered and into these the women and children were hurriedly put. Six of these boats smashed against one sides of the Norge, and their helpers were caught up by the heavy seas.
Two boat loads got safely away from the side of the sinking ship, and many of the emigrants, who were left on board, seizing life belts, threw bodies into the sea and were drowned.
Captain Gundel, so say the survivors, stood on the bridge of the doomed vessel until it could be seen no more.
Some 600 terrified emigrants were thrown into the water or drawn down with the sinking ship. Those who could swim tried to reach the boats but these were already too full, and their occupants were off the drowning ship. The boats kept together for several hours. Practically all of the occupants were passengers and were not used to handling such a craft. The boat occupied the water, and the occupant himself was a life boat.
One account says that three boats were successfully launched, the other two holding about ten persons each. The life boat made faster progress and fell in with the Sulvia. What beetle of the other boats is not yet known.
The rescue of those in the life boat took place at 8 o'clock on the morning of June 29, the survivors consisted of a seaman; six women and a girl. One of the survivors said that when he got on deck, the Norse was half submerged and was rapidly getting deeper. To fight, the survivors all struggled for places in the boats. They fought their way to the big life boat and an officer stolled in the six women and the girl and then told the men to get in. The officer then took charge and got the boat away from the edge of the Norse. Seeking that the boat was ablaze, the crew of great heroism, jumped into the water and tried to board another boat which was not so full. He failed, and was drowned. Sea by this time was a mass of struggling men, women and children, gasping and choking from the effects of the water. The boat was
and just as she drew away, the Norge went down. Peter Nelson, one of the survivors, described as a young American said: "For several hours we rowed in company with the other boats, but the strong tide drifted us away and nothing has been seen of them since. The Salvia picked us up and we were well cared for on board the trawler." The only hope except for those known to have escaped is that some few of the emigrants might have been washed up on the barren rock. Their chance of belge rescue is similar for vessels sailing the north Atlantic stockail as wide a berth as possible.
The news of this disaster, which it is feared in its death record is greater than any previous tragedy of the Atlantic, came with the arrival tonight of the steam on the ocean at Grimsby, the Salvia cruise on the Hebrides. By chance, she steamed further west than is usual for a Grimsby trawler and fell in with the survivors of the Norge, who for twenty-four hours had been tossed about in a small Atlantic. The survivors were taken aboard the Salvia and were landed at Grimsby last night.
London, July 5—Of 774 souls on board the Danish steamer Norge, 128 including Captain Gundell, are known to have been saved up to this hour, and the survivors which brought others to safety. For the missing 666 persons small hope are entertained.
The enormous death roll which was feared at the first news of the wreck has been decreased by twelve. That number of survivors, after many hardships, were landed at Stonway yes.
Vessels are searching in the vicinity of Rockall for any more survivors. The chief hope lies in Captain Gundell's statement that seven boatloads got safely away. The epic story of the sea has ever been known here than that of the sinking of the Norse. Aberdeen, Scotland, July 6.—Another lifeboot containing seventeen survivors of the ill-fated Danish steamer Norge, which foundered off Rockall reef, 250 miles from the Scottish mainland, on June 23, were unded at the base of the reef by the steamer trawler Largo Bay. Six hundred and twenty-seven persons are still missing.
MADE DARE-DEVIL ATTEMPT.
Japanese Torpedo Boats Enter Port
Arthus Hachor
St. Petersburg, July 7—A few nights ago Admiral Togo attempted to repeat the Japanese exploit with torpedo boats at Wel Hai Wel during the Chinese-Japanese war by sending torpedo boat destroyers into the harbor, which was not protected by boats, and sinking ships at their anchorage, but the attempt resulted in disastrous failure. Four torpedo boat destroyers succeeded in creeping into the harbor, which was not protected by boats, and by the shore batteries and one was crippled. The reckless bravery of the Japanese in going to almost certain destruction excludes nothing but admiration here. The channel at Port St. Louis was sunk and wrecked without that evidently it was regarded as unnecessary to use a boom. On account of the difficulty in getting into the harbor the feat is looked upon in naval circles to be the most dangerous and the most at sea at Wel Hai Wel, where the torpedo boats, in a storm and covered with ice, were jumped over the booms protecting the harbor and destroyed Chinese warships. So far as known the torpedo boats did not even succeed in launching torpedoes.
Japs Close in on Port Arthur.
The Che Foo, July 5—Chinese who arrived here last night from Port Arthur say the Japanese forces have formed a strong base on the land side of the town and that they are occupying all the commanding hills, including Wolf mountain, within a radius of seven miles of the fortifications.
The Chinese say also that two large wreaths are missing from the squadron which went out from Port Arthur on June 23 and that the Russian battleship Sevastopol was damaged on that day.
The Japanese bombarded Port Arthur from the sea on June 30, but did no damage to the town.
The Rush to Rosebud,
the Rosebud station, the registry office here closed last night 3,115 persons had registered for free homes. The rush that is still on hand was indicated by the fact that on the late evening train 600 people got off and will register today. The train that went out was equally full, and many people now on. Ten town site companies are reported to have made applications to the commissioner for town
CHEER BRYAN; VOTE AGAINST
Nebraska Orator's Magnificent Appeal Fails to Sway His Hearers.
FORMER ELOQUENCE ONLY
Loses On a Test Vote - Ballot On Report of Credentials Committee Indicates Strength of Parker and Anti-Parker Forces.
St. Louis, Mo., July 7—The democratic national convention met yesterday, listened to an extended speech from Representative John Sharp Williams, its temporary chairman, appointed the committees necessary to perfect a permanent organization, and adjourned in the evening for five minutes, one striking incident overshadowed all other proceedings. That was the enthusiastic and prolonged cheering which greeted the name of Grover Cleveland. While the outburst was not a major event, the democratic president before its last sylabic had fallen from the lips of the temporary chairman, was noteworthy in itself, it was magnified by contrast with the greetings accorded to him. The president of men who will be for that has been Mr. Cleveland within the party during the last eight years.
James K. Jones of Arkansas, chairman of the national committee, went onto the platform and took his seat unnoticed. Practically no greeting was given him when he faced the convention, and he were other stool刃侍ants of the Nebraskan who entered the hall unacclaimed, and lastly Mr. Bryan himself who, for the first time during the last two national campaigns, was greeted with silence. Eight minutes after the gavel fell the twice named candidate entered the entrance and sought his seat unheeded and unheeded. A few moments later he arose and pushed his way to a seat nearer the aisle, where standing a moment to give greetings to friends, he was caught sight of and applauded. But the measure of applause was but a ripple when compared to the form called forth by Cloydland's
Listening to the democratic doctrine laid down by Mr. Williams, the conservatives found occasion for the first demonstration when reference was made to the President Cleveland. All the shackled party interest which had lain dormant through two national campaigns was released as by the touch of a trigger, no name given. The crowd threw toroats, Hats, handicrafts, fans and arms were waived, delegates and spectators stood on their chairs, and the last semblance of order was turned into chaos. Official officials were powerless to subdue.
While the outburst was at its height, Mr. Bryan's following attempted to convert the demonstration into appeals for their leader, the man who had been so brutally vicious, Shouting of "Grover," and "Cleveland," was renewed and the Bryan following was hissed. The greatest significance was attached to Bryan's appeal to the Bryan men. Their absolute control of the convention is no longer doubted even by those who have heretofore declined to be convinced. The nomination of Judge Parker for president is assured beyond any possibility of deference.
When the result of the contest was announced the report of the committee on permanent organization was made. Representative Champ Clark, a member of the committee addressed the convention. He had prepared and furnished to the press a speech of great length. The hour was so late when he gained the platform, however, that he spoke about the results of his audience to read the remainder.
The ovation given to Mr. Bryan was one of the greatest ever transpiring at any of the notable events for which the immense coliseum is famed. It was begun before the afternoon session of the convention had been called to order and continued for twelve hours by the Temporary Chairman Williams and all of his assistants, including a hundred policemen, were unable to restore order. Quiet came from the convention only after the Parker forces joined in and by persistent efforts turned the title by a great counter-demonstration for the New Yorker, so that nomination for president finally reaped the harvest of enthusiasm sown for Mr. Bryan.
St. Louis, July 8—The subcommittee of the committee on resolutions spent the entire day until 5 o'clock in perfecting the details of the demonstration, which lasted an hour with the adoption of a gold standard plank. The plank was voted in during the absence of Mr. Bryan and Congressman Williams, and the ballot stood 7 to 3, the affirmative votes being 6 to 3, the Pattison, Hammil, Cable, Poe and Davis, and the negative votes by Messas, Dubois, Shilvey and Newlands. The understanding was that if Messas Bryan and Williams had been elected, they would least their votes in the negative, thus bringing the opposition to five.
The income tax plank was opposed by Hill and favored by Tillman. He planned to place the income tax plank, asserting that it was true democratic doctrine.
Immediately after the full committee teeenced at 8 o'clock, Senator Daniel read the subcommittee's draft of a phone call list to listed with it, then it in silence. As soon as the reading was completed the committee entered upon the consideration of the trivial plank. The change suggested by Bryan was
The Bryan plank is shorter, and more direct than that of the subcommittee. It declares in effect that altair for protection is robbery and vocates a gradual reduction along the way it will not disturb business interests.
Following are extracts from the platform as reported by the subcommittee: "We favor a liberal trade treaty with Canada." The observations of gold within the past years and the great increase in the production thereof, adding two thousand million dollars to the world's supply, of which seven hundred million falls to the share of the United States, has contributed to the maintenance of a money standard of no home open to question, removing the burden from the field of political content."
"A private monopoly is indefensible and intolerable. We recognize the right of capital, in all legitimate lines of enterprise, to combine for the increase of business to industry and decreasing the cost of production, but when such combination, in its purpose or effect, creates or tends to create a monopoly in its productions, to restrain trade, or to stifle competition, to increase corporate profits, to market the market, it violates the spirit of our laws, becomes inimical to public welfare and peace, and should be so regulated, controlled or prohibited by law as to amply protect the public interest.
"We denounce the ship subsidy bill recently passed by the United States senate as an iniquitous appropriation of public funds for private purposes, and a wasteful, illogical and useless attempt to overcome by subsidy the public legislation to the growth and development of American commerce on the sea."
"We demand the extermination of polygamy within the jurisdiction of the United States, and the complete separation of church and state in political affairs."

Secretary of State John Hay was the orator of the day and United States Senator Charles W. Fairbanks of Indiana, republican candidate for governor of Indiana. G. Cannon of the national house of representatives were also present and delivered addresses. On the platform was seated a representative delegation of the republican leaders of this state, headed by United States Senator John Burrows presided over the afternoon session and Senator Alger was the last speaker of the afternoon. Behind the speaker's platform rose a wall of bright color bunting with immense republican nominees for president, and Abraham Lincoln, the first president to occupy the White House. In the front rows of the audience were nearly a thousand men who voted for John C. Freemont for president. Representation was pinned in the original "under the oak's" convention fifty years ago yesterday. The following quotations are from the address of Secretary Hay: "The republican party had a noble origin. It sprang directly from an embattled and indignant national conscience."
"If there is one thing more than another in which we republicans are entitled to legitimate pride, it is that we have never lost the right to call ourselves him while he lived, and that we have never lost the right to call ourselves his followers. We have done, what we are doing, and what we intend to do—on all three we confidently challenge the verdict of the American people." "To every grade of law-breaker we have done, we have a till or a ballot box; to the smok of the bully; to the hypocrite and the humbug, the Doreothe Roosevelt is more than unsafe; he is positively dangerous." "Everything great done by this country in the last fifty years has been done under the auspices of the republican party." DESPERATE BAYONET CHARGE.
Japanese and Russians Struggle Hand to Hand.
General Kuroki's Headquarters in the Field, (via Fusan). July 7—On July 4 two battalions of Russians attempted to break through the Japanese outposts at the northern entrance to Mo Tien pass. After daylight they surrounded an outpost of eighty men at the foot of a hill and charged the trench above. A bloody encounter with bayonets, lasting a quarter of an hour, caused. The Russians attacked the trench three times, but were driven up the valley by a Japanese reinforcement, leaving many dead and wounded. An observer saw fifty lying in front of the trench. Tokio, July 7—Supplemental dispatches indicate that the fight at Mo Tien pass on July 4 was a desperate hand to hand affair. A majority of the Russians were wounded in bayonets. The Russians surrounded the outposts of the Japanese who fought until relief came. The Russians left 53 dead and 40 wounded on the field. The Japanese lost 19 killed and 38 wounded. It is believed that the Russians sustained losses during the pursuit than in action.

"No," whined the pessimist, "but a crop like this is terribly wearing on the soil."

COURT DECIDES AGAINST DENNISON
Decrees That He Must Go to Iowa and Answer to the Charge.
COURT DECISION A SURPRISE
Dennison Will Appeal the Case to the Supreme Court for Final Decision on the Part of the Body—Will Be Hard Fought Legal Battle
Omaha, Neb., July 3.—Tom Dennison's application for a writ of habeas corpus has been denied by the district court. The attorneys have taken exceptions to the findings of the court and given notice that they will move for a new trial next Tuesday, and in the meanwhile the mail order of the court will not be entered and Governor Mickey's warrant of extradition will be held in obeyance.
Attorneys for the Civic Federation stated in court yesterday they would give reasonable time to the attorneys for Dennison to make their record upon which to carry the case to the supreme court.
Court Room No. 1 was crowded when Judges Day, Troup and Redick read their findings in the habeas corpus case, in which all three of the jurists concurred, although they read separate opinions. The conclusions reached by the court are as follows: First—The warrant of the governor is prima facie valid, and in connection with the evidence before the government case. Second—The indictment is properly established and establishes the fact that the relator stands charged with the commission of a crime against the laws of the state of town. Third—The indictment of the governor is not invalid because it fails to recite the findings of the jurisdictional facts. Fourth—The cavilit and copy of Sherliffe's evidence before the grantee jury are not competent evidence in the case, above either of the jurisdictional facts.
Fifth—The statute of limitation has no application where the parties are fugitives from the justice of the state.
Sixth—The burden is upon the relator to establish by clear and satisfactory evidence that he was not in the state of Iowa at or about the date of the alleged offense.
Seventh—The evidence andcircumstances in evidence do not clearly and satisfactorily show that the relater was not in the state of Iowa on or about the 5th day of November less, the date of the alleged offense.
The findings are:
Second—That the warrant of the governor of Nebraska is sufficient upon the governor of Nebraska for the extradition of the relator in this case.
Third—That the warrant of the governor of Nebraska is sufficient upon the governor of Nebraska for the competent proof before him, and that the relator is now held under sale warrant.
Third—From the facts proven upon the trial the relator has failed to eschew the case he was not in the state of Iowa at or about the time of the alleged crime.
The writ of habeas corpus prayed is therefore denied. Dennison's attorneys alleged insufficiency of law, that the statute of limitation had not run against the alleged crime and that Dennison was not in Iowa at the time of the crime. In brief, the court held that the statute of limitation had not run against the alleged crime and that the warrant of extra-dition issued by Governor Mickey O'Neill did not constitute the jurisdictional fact that Dennison was a fugitive from justice.
the court held that the indictment charging Dennison with complicity in the crime, returned by the Harrison county, Iowa, grand jury, was properly authenticated and was a good witness. Omar Maimon, July 4—County Attorney Fallon of Harrison county, Iowa, discovered a few days ago that the record of the evidence in the Scharliffe trial at Logan, Iowa, in 1893, has been mysteriously destroyed. Mr. Fallon was informed by one of the jurors in the Scharliffe case that the trial was in council at the trial he was in Council Bluffs and was preparing to go to Davenport, Iowa, with Patsy Grant at the time of the Pollock diamond robbery. Mr. Fallon immediately made a search for the record in the Scharliffe case, as this testimony would have proved that the trial was in council. He found, however, that the record has been burned.
Omaha. July 6—The motion for a new trial in the Dennison case was submitted in a formal manner, and without any arguments. The court overruled the motion and the final judgment, and ordered the record. Then the lawyers for Dennison applied for a supersedes giving the relator until next January in which to appeal to the supreme court. The court granted thirty days in which to file notice of appeal. Dennison's appeal bond was fixed at $1,000 and A. B. Hunt, superintendent of the Omaha Water company.

And its Harvest of Accidents From Fire Crackers.
Des Molines, July 5—The Register and Leader has made a special effort to secure complete and accurate returns of Fourth of July accidents over the state. From returns received, one death can be blamed directly to the careless use of firearms in connection with the collision of six vehicles either wholly or in part, from injuries received. Three are seriously burned, and five have had their hands mutilated by the premature explosion of firecrackers or by toy pistols. A number of others are more or less seriously injured.
A list of those who are the most grievous sufferers is as follows: Killed—Ruth Pearson of Newton, Massachusetts; Marmalade of Cedar Rapids, Charles Neville of Anamosa, 2-year-old daughter of B. F. Kirk of Council Bluffs, Henry Darnell of Council Bluffs, Willie Skrond of Cascade, Charles Babco of City. Seriously injured—Anton Jenista of Cedar Rapids, Gladys Bartlett of Boone, Roy Bethers of Council Bluffs. Seriously injured by firecrackers and toy pistols—Harry Balch of Anamosa, Ferris Goorich of Council Bluffs, Young Olson of Council Bluffs, Miss Rebecca Todd of Vinton, enjoying the pleasures of a Fourth of July picnic in a grove near home of William Nesheim, three and one-half miles southwest of this place, Ruth Pearson, years old was shot while killed in a killery yesterday. The shooting was purely accidental.
Marshall and a companion, also enjoying their Fourth of July holiday were walking up the railroad tracks to a carriage carried a rifle with them, and were firing at a mark as they wont. The rifle was 32-calibre and a repeater. Three bullets were fired by Marshall into the grove, and struck among the makers, who were hidden from his sight. On one of the leaden messengers struck the little girl in the head, killing her instantly. The coroner was summoned, but after viewing the body decided that no inquest was necessary. Marshall is almost frantic with grief over the consequences of his action. The dead girl is the daughter of Wendy, a well known resident of this place.

A resolution was adopted extending sympathy to the Western Federation of Miners and denouncing the stand taken by Governor Peabody of Colonies. There were fifty delegates present, representing 285 votes. The convention was called to order by Secretary J. J. Jacobsen of Des Moines. W. A. Jacobsen of Des Moines, the executive chairman and A. A. Twiller of Duhue, editor of the Iowa socialist, was chosen permanent secretary.

She wanted to shoot a man who had been selling beer, and tried to stab her husband when he got into a fight with Mrs. Kimball, who is a very handsome young woman of 22 years, says that she has a temper which she cannot control, but emphatically insists that she is not at all cruel. She will engage a lawyer and ask the insanity commission decided her a fit person for the insane hospital.
BURIED IN RUINS.
Waterlco Man Has Miraculous Escape
From Death
Waterloo, July 8.—With a roar of a cyclone and loud crash the rear section of the third floor of the Fowler wholesale grocery building fell through two intertwining floors. Nat Hartong and son, Lee, were pushing a loaded truck over the floor when it gave way and Hartong was carried with the load crashing through two floors to the basement and buried beneath the heavy mass. By a heavy fall the father was buried beneath the debris for an hour, was dug out and taken to the hospital. His injuries are not great.
Several others had narrow escapes. The damage to the building and stock was great. The Cebun sporting goods store was demolished and carried to the basement. The loss will be $3,000.
Clarence Campbell, whose home is in Colfax, was killed instantly, being caught under a traction engine, which went through a county bridge four miles east of Colfax. Joe Slaughter was injured in a manner that will cause his death, and his brother, Meil Slaughter, had an arm broken. The three young men were running a traction engine from New York to Indian Creek, near the home of Peter Pink the bridge's a-way.
POPULISTS NAME NATIONAL TICKET
Other Candidates Withdraw Before Close of Roll Call - Platform Brief and Practically Reaffirms the Omaha Platform of 1892.
Springfield, Ill., July 6.—Thomas E. Watson of Georgia, for president, and Thomas H. Tibbles of Nebraska, for vice-president, was the ticket nominated yesterday by the populist national convention. The names of William V. Allen of Nebraska and Samuel W. Williams of Indiana were also placed before the convention for president, but before the list of states had been completed in the roll call, their names were withdrawn, and Watson nominated by acclamation. Former Senator Allen made good his word that he would not enter into any scramble for the nominations, were being made he twice instructed the chairman of the Nebraska delegation to say that his name must not go before the convention, but in the face of this, he received over 400 votes and many believe he was the best contender to be his given consent to be a candidate. Whether Watson will accept the nomination or not no one in the convention seemed to know and all efforts to secure some definite information from Watson's friends failed. Watson was quoted as saying that if the nomination was not approved, Watson R. Herst he (Watson) would support him for president.
Williams of Indiana, who worked harder for the nomination and who made more claims than anyone else, was the first woman to own state was called, eleven of the twenty-four delegates refused to support him, and voted for Allen. Heison withdrew in favor of Watson, and the nomination of Watson unanimous. There were five nominations for vice-president, Thomas H. Tibbles, of Nebraska; Theoreon H. Kryder, of Wisconsin; and George F. Washburn, of Massachusetts, and Samuel W. Williams, of Indiana. The two latter declined, and Tibbles practically received all the votes he could mobilize and was nominated by secession.
It was after 10 o'clock a.m. before the committee on credentials made its report, and from that time until the convention adjourned at 7 o'clock in the evening there was almost a gap in the evening when the guards gave one almost every question that came up for discussion, and it required the entire day to adopt a short platform and nominate a ticket. J. A. Mallett of Texas was permanent chairman. The platform adopted is brief and is a practice of the convention on platform of 1892. It was adopted as reported by the committee, without a dissenting voice. Former Congressman E. R. Ridgely of Kansas attempted to secure the postponement of nominating a ticket to the convention, but he was blissed and interrupted so he could not speak, and the convention promptly tabled his resolution. After the convention adjourned, a meeting of the national co. committee was held, and James H. Ferris of Joliet, ill was elected chairman and Charles H. France of Lincoln, N. secretary.
The committee also appointed members of the national committee for those states that were not represented at the convention. Mrs. Marian Todd, were appointed. Mrs. Marian Todd, James E. McBride, E. J. Payne.
According to advice from Des Moines competition from the St. Louis exposition is not making itself felt as against the Iowa state fair which is but seven weeks distant. Secretary Simpson is receiving entries for the Iowa fair at an unparalleled state, considering the time that yet remains in which to make them. What is more, many of the curties come from points near St. Louis. Two big cattle herds were entered a few days ago, one of which comes from Missouri and the other from Illinois. Mr. Simpson accounts for the unusual number that many small exhibitors are entering this year in the belief that competition will not be so strong. They anticipate that the cream of everything will be at St. Louis and that they will stand a chance to win at the Iowa State fair. They will be disappointed, as the winners of past seasons are, with very few exceptions, entering their exhibits with Secretary Simpson again this year. Secretary Simpson anticipates a record-breaking attendance this year if the weather is anything like a good time, will result in the usual pilgrimage to the state fair, notwithstanding the world's fair.

NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL
Des Moines, July 8, 1904.
One of the leading attractions of the present session of the Midland Chauquaytown, Des Moines, is the political debate between Congressman J. Adam Bede of Minnesota and Congressman Wade of the Second congressional district of Iowa, which occurs on July 12. Mr. Bede is acknowledged as one of the greatest orators in congress of the Wade district, and a debater stands high in the lists of the lower House. It is conceded that the debate will be a great one, and many ristors are expected from out of town. Dr. Frank Gunsadius of Chicago, Dr. John B. Sweeney, son of July 17. The judge, Susan B. charge of the Redpath Lyceum Busin, is full of good things and the railroads are giving reduced rates.
Defectives Eli Hardin and Andrew Brackett returned from Chicago bringing with them Frank Jennings, who once escaped, and "Smithy" Schumacher, who had been missing having blown O. Cohen's safe in December last and securing $5,000 worth of diamonds. Chief Hardin, with much difficulty, succeeded in securing the men for trial in Holmes, as he did officials anxious to give similar charges to those for which they are wanted in this city. The grand jury will take up the investigation of the charges against the mea-t once.
A parole has been granted to Sam Horton of Sioux City, confined in the Woodbury county jail for a year. Horton had served for six months. He was also for locked eye of another negro's head with a stone. It was the first time that he ever got into trouble, the story that he had served a term in the penitentiary being a fabrication. He will go to the Mondain hotel in Sioux City.
James Brendel, warden of the insane ward of the Polk county poor farm, who was recently charged with cruel and inhuman treatment of inmates, has been emphatically vindicated in the report of the committee on the inscription of the county farm law. The committee says that "praise is due Warndel Brendel for the efforts made by him in behalf of the insane of the county and the proper keeping of the county's interests at the poor farm."
According to the figures and estimates of Director J. R. Sage of the Iowa Crop and Weather service, the month of July has a better prospect of a crop than the same month in last year, and the crop has prospered exceedingly well and gives evidence of the bumper crop so much desired by the Iowa farmer and consumer of the world. Heavy rains of last year were of course responsible for the crop as compared with the outlooks this year, while the average quantity of rain and the general good conditions for a crop have thus far aided in giving the farmers the ideal year for corn and summer of garden production. This condition is represented to be at least 13 per cent better than it was last year.
The state board of control expects to name a state visitor within a day or two. A score of candidates for the appointment have filed their applications. The position is one which requires a peculiar ability. The law is construed to authorize the board to employ a visitor not only to find and maintain the orphans' home, but also to find positions for paroled convicts and youths paroled from the industrial schools at Mitchellville and Lildora.
Secretary Davison of the executive council says that the reports of telephone companies are now being received at the state house after a fashion which indicates that these corporations will have furnished the council with the necessary equipment before the time for making the assessment has arrived. "One of the chief difficulties of the work of gathering the reports of the companies has been the failure of those which have changed their names during the past year," said Davison. "They were assessed last year," said Davison. "The result of this failure on the part of the companies has been that in some cases concerns which have reported are classed as delinquent with their reports, and they have been appealed to stronemily. It is therefore that they file a statement, now, as to the name under which they were assessed last year."
State Superintendent Riggs, who has returned to his office after an absence of several days, announced on behalf of President H. H. Searley the appointment of C. S. Hammock of Aberdeen, S. D., to be director of the manual training department at the institution. The trustees of the normat school decided some time ago to establish a manual training department. President Seerley was commissioned to make an investigation of the subject. At the recent meeting of the trustees he submitted an elaborate report on the training and assimilation of establishing such a department. Following this comes the announcement of the selection of Professor Hammock to be the director of the department at Cedar Falls. He is said to be one of the leaders of this sort of work in the country.

John Stoneburner, of Springfield, Ohio, is a believer in dreams. He dreamed that at a certain spot, near the river, a saw lay a burrowing gold. The repetition of the dream, two days later, caused him deep reflection. He went to the spot indicated, and there unearthed gold coins to the value of three thousand dollars. He supposed to have been caused to sleep in the year 1746, by a French settler.
TWO STEPS
A sick coffee drinker must take two steps to be rid of his troubles and get strong and well again.
The first step is to cut off coffee absolutely.
That removes the destroying element. The next step is to take liquid food (and that is Postom Food Coffee) that has in it the elements nature requires to charge the blood from poor milk or white to rich red, and good red blood builds good strong and healthy cells in place of the broken down cells destroyed by coffee. With well boiled Postom Food Coffee to shift to, both these steps are easy and pleasant. The experience of a Georgian proves how important both are.
"From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife and I had both afflicted with sick or nervous headache and an agony. We were coffee drinkers and did not know how to get away from it for the habit is hard to quit.
"But in 1900 I read of a case similar to ours where Postum Coffee was used in place of the old coffee and a complete cure resulted, so I concluded to get some and try it.
"The result was, after three days' use of Postum in place of the old coffee of the old trouble and in five months I had gained from 15 pounds to 163 pounds.
"My friends asked me almost daily what wrought the change. My answer always is, leaving off coffee and drinking Postum in its place.
"We have many friends who have been benefited by Postum.
"As to whether or not I have stated the facts truthfully I refer you to the Bank of Carrollton or any business that city where I have lived for many years and am well known." Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.

problem of Ignorance, ignorance on
the part of the white people as well
as the black people, ‘and the only
solution I ean recommend, after liv:
ing ip the south xeae’y 8k wy Use,
is that of Christian education.” This
was the thought expressed by Rev.
H.W. Porter, the new pastor of
Union’ Congregational church (col:
ored) in an interview.
“A large part of the race antipathy
in the south Is directly traceable to
the jealously of the poorer whites at
the “prosperity. of the Negroes. In
Atlanta, Ga., where half of the pop
ination is colored, some of the Nesrocs
own and live In as fine houses as
there are in Des Moines. ‘The south-
ern Negro has made and is making
prodigious strides toward self-im-
provement, both in an educational
and financial way. Where there are
thousands ef poor whites working in
the cotton mills with their children
tolling at thelr side, the Negro 1s
pushing out, acquiring small farms
hud sciding his children to school.
Result of Ignerance.
“The race prejudice in the south
is ail uie result of ignorance. ‘The
Sgnorant white cannot realize the ai-
vaneement of the Negro, and the ig.
norant Negro is the one who come
mits the offenses against the state
and the pubife that are tuid at the
door of the Negro in general, In
every eity the police sill tell you this
is tre.” The reason why there ts
& probiem in the south is because of
the great bull of ignorance on the
part of both blacks and whites in
Auch states as Alabama and Missls-
sippl, where the whites are as illit:
erate as the blacks. In Georgia a
majority of the property owners are
negroes, and they are the heavy tax-
payers o fthe state, The reason that
the Negros of Georgia have not been.
disfranchised is because of the
strength of the populist party, which
threatened to dicrapt the old line

‘The Murray Case.
Mr. Porter discussed at some length
the Murray ease, in which the Nesto

of land, was tried and convicted of
forgery. Murray is a fuli blooded Ne.

and had not even the advantages of a
college education. Because he was
shecessful a8 @ property man, he was
chosen to represent his district fs
congress. He sold a small plot of
ground to an old Negro, and lke
many a sensible business man took
a mortgage upon it until it was paid
for. ‘The property revered to. him.
‘This was made the busis of a seheme
on the part of his enemies to de.
prive him of lis congressional seat
for nd one convicted of felony ean
hata a seat in the legisiaure, As
he was the only Negro of safietent
nfuence to be elected from the dis.
trict. it is plain that his conviction
would leave the way open for the
whites. He was tried to a jury, con
victed and sentenced. A retrial was
granted and he was again iried to the
same jury, and convicted. The third
retrial is now pending. His attorney
