EXCURSION the 1928 train on
Tuesday, over the Milwaukee division of
the B., G. R. & NJ, large excursion
from Independence, including the Fire
Department in uniform, arrived in our
city. They were met at the platform by
our Fire Department in uniform. headed
by band of music, and the Independence
boys forming in line with ours the pro.
cession moved through the principal
streets. We have scarcely seen as good
o turnout of firemen, and as the long line
of ed-shirted men moved through the
streets we could not but think how much
property these organizations have and
will yet in the future save AS usual,
when the firemen have anything on hand,
it rained; the weather clerk doubtless
thinking their favbrite element agreeable
at all times. In the afternoon, however, old
Sol showed his face, and fine weather
took the place of the clouds and mist OF
the morning. The afternoon brought out
both the Steamer and Independent Com
panies with their machines, and all re,
paired to the cistern near the depot, where
some time was spent in shooting water at
a barn across the vacan. lot on the right.
The excursionists were entertained at
Browns Hotel, and left at five o'clock for
home. What their impressions wcro OF
Cedar Rapids and her firemen we don't
know; but we will say that, latter our
own" of course, Independence has the
best looking set of Fire Boys we have
seen in the Stakeholder Rapids Times,

A Sw1NDL1NG AGENT. E. Kennedy
time ago for the sale Of the life Of w. H.
Seward, received large list of sub
scrlbers here but never delivered the
books. Some of onr citizens paid him in
advance and are anxious to hear from
him. He lives, we believe, in Indepen-
dence, and perhaps the editors up there
could give some information as to his
whereabouts. His unpaid bills here to
printers, hotel keepers, bar keepers and
others, amount to quite sum, and unless
he reports himself soon detective will
be placed on his track.-Ceddr Rapids
Republican.
The individual referred to above is
not resident of Independence but a
peripatetic dcad-bcat, who came to this
city last winter, sick, destitute, and rag
ged, and was taken in by q BENEVOLENT
citizen, who fed and nursed him to re-
covery, and who never received word
of thanks for his kindly deed. Ken
nedy's business here, and his manner of
conducting 1t, was the same as at Cedar
Rapids. He procured very large list
of subscribers for the Life of Seward,
and secured all the morey he could in
advance, borrowed orwhoever would
lend him, victimized the pastor of the
Catholic church to the extent of $50, by
inducing him to endorse a note at the
bank, and when he had squeezed every
thing dry decamped, leaving besides,
unpaid board bills and other mementos
of his stay. If our friends in Cedar Rap
ids have the mettle to try the virtue Of
detectives and extradition treaties, they
are informed that said j. E. Kennedy is,
or was at last advices, at Richmond Hill,
Canada.

APPENDED to letter received this
week, inclosing two dollars tor the Bull
LETlN, is the following postscript:
"In these times man needs politica |
compass of some sort, that he may not
lose his bearings"
Our correspondent hits the nail square
on the head. Probably of those who, in
this campaign, have cast loose from Re-
publican moorings, and, misled by false
lights, the name of reform without its
substance or honest purpose, are drifting
about in sea of doubt, perplexity and
conflicting impulses, large share are
men who read little or none at all. The
cunning demagogues who have already
got control Of the new party machinery,
find this class plastic material to their
hands. They are easily misled by appeals
to their passions and prejudices, because
they deprive themselves of the knowl-
edge upon which to found conviction.
The man who ncglects or refuses to keep
himself posted upon political affairs by
reading of the papers is dangerous man
in the community, no matter how good
his impulses.

AN esteemed subscriber, and one Of the
staunchest and ablest Republicans in the
county, in forwarding the caucus call of
his township for publication, writes: "If
the voters all turn out to the caucusses,
so they may be fairly represented, this
Convention will be as as fair an express
sion of the will of the people as any ever
held in the county. There have been
fewer office-seekers, less hand, shaking,
and less pledging on the part of the yo-
tiers than ever before. The ancient party
that has been so long clutching at straws,
has not yet got hold of plank to save it.
Whether called Reform or Anti Monop-
oly,' the people cannot help but believe
that it is the same old scene they have
seen enacted so often under many names:
the substitution of policy for principle,
the following for the loaves and fishes"

ACCIDENT. - Last Monday morning
Michael Conway started to drive to town
in his lumber wagon, having as compan-
ions another man md three girls. In
turning out to pass another team the
wheels fell into rut, fitting the wagon,
and spilling the party out upon the
ground Mr. Conway lit upon his head,
and has had an uncomfortably stiff neck
ever since. and the wagon wheels passed
over both wrists of one of the young
girls, depriving her of the use of her hands
for some time. 1t might have been worse.
