AN IOWA LYNCHING

On Monday evening, the Goth, a big
about 80 years, met two little girls in
the street at Ottumwa. One, Sarah
Sax, about years old, and daughter
of merchant, he enticed with candy
into his room, where he frightiully out
ragged her. When released from the
room she at once went home and told
what had happened. A physician was
summoned, who announced that il she
RECEIVERS it will be miracle. The
authorities were informed and going
to Gustafson's room placed him under
arrest. On the following day, while
very few persons were on the streets,
Gustafson was taken to Justice Truths
court for preliminary examination.
The news spread that Gustafson
was in court and soon an OK
cited mob had gathered about
the building. The grandfather of the
outraged child attempted to strike
Gustafson with his fist but was held
back by the officers. His daughter,
the mother of the child, was there, too.
Suddenly the window to the Justices
court was raised and the grandfather
called for help to avenge the murder of
his child. Either the mother or the
aunt of the child furnished rope.
The mob swarmed into the court room
and fight ensued between them and
the officers. 1t was of short duration
and soon the mob emerged with the
rope around the fiend's neck. He was
thrown over the iron stairway which
went up the side of the building, and
his body dangled in the air for ten
minutes, when the rope broke and the
lifeless body fell to the pavement. Of
ficers took charge of the body and 1T
was borne to the Jail. The mob fol-
lowed and refused to dispense until it
was proved to them that the brute was
dead

the Recent Election,

New YORK, Nov. 80. Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, who was candidate on
the republican ticket for delegate to
the constitutional convention from the
Ninth senatorial district, believes that
he was legally elected but counted out,
If this be the case, he doesn't propose
to stay counted out, but will fight for
his place. Mr.. Gompers says:
MANY of the citizens and voters in
the district have declared that they
voted for me. The inspectors of cleo
ton have made returns showing that
either none or few votes were east for
me in these very districts. In other
words, the pastors on the ballots were
not counted at all for me. but for the
opposition candidates II the citi-
zens who voted for me by paster bal
lot will kindly send me their names,
addresses and the election and assem-
bly, districts in which they east such u
ballot, il may result in the election of
the candidate o; their choice to the
constitutional convention and tend TO
preserve the purity of our elections.
