POLICE STATION IMPROVEMENT.


Captain McKaig Makes a Desirable
Change in the Fourth Precinct.
The new Fourth Precinct Police Sta
tion. over which Captain A. McKaig pre-
sides, is undergoing few repairs. The
room set aside for the patrol wagon was
SO small thar the doors could not be
closed unless the shafts were tied up.
This left very little room for the stall,
and would not permit the horse being
hitched up unless the doors were opened
on Communipaw avenue.
Captain McKaiG. with the permission
of the Police Commissioners, has had a
brick partition between the patrolmen's
reserve room and the patrol wagon room
cut away and the two rooms made into
one. AS it is arranged now there will be
plenty OF room to hitch the horse up
without opening the doors and also
allow good sized space for the patrols

NEWSPAPER OPINION
The Iowa Campalgn.

Louisville Courier-Journal.
The campaign in lows for state officers
is proceeding with nnexampled vigor,
Governor Boies, who is a candidate to
succeed himself as governor, is making a
great canvass, sometimes delivering three
speeches in one day. Wheeler, the Re
publican nominee, is not a speaker, but
is conducting an energetic and effective
still hunt, while other Republicans are
haranguing the people 10 his behalf
Governor Boies was elected two years
ago BY plurality of $500. III round
numbers he received 10000 votes,
against 173 500 for Hutchinson, his OPP
ponent. His vote was substantially the
same as that received by Cleveland in
1888. while the Republican vote was
IS. 600 less than that cast for Harrison,
Il Is an interesting question what is to
become of these votes this year, That
the total vote cast in 1889 should be con
siderably less than that Of the preceding
year is quite the regular thing. A Presi-
Dental election almost invariably brings
out more votes than one for state officers.
In the latter case many voters stay al
home. That Boies received as many
votes as Cleveland by no means
proves that no Democrats stayed at
home in 1889. for 1t it is well known that
Boies received the votes of many Re
publicans. Nevertheless, the Republi.
can hope Of success this year is based
upon the probability OF getting enough
| OF the Republicans who stayed at homs
| In 1889 to turn the scale in their favor
They are strengthened In this exception
