 We had hade our way through crowd occupying large room or small hall in which business was conducted. This hall was filled with people some of whom were there to look after their own or oth- CT peoples affairs, and others of whom had obviously dropped in for a casual chat. Almost all were smoking cigar cites, an amusement which they shared with good many of the bank clerks. When we had got through this crowd my friend and host presented a check at guichet. The man behind the guichet srg.ve him a metal disk stamped with a Humber.

MIR. EDIToR:-lt seems that the
Advocate sees nothing in this cam
paign but whiskey ana beer, still this
is not to be wondered at very much, AS
the Advercate has been looking in the
bottom of beer mug for the last ten
years, and it should not be expected
that it can see much of anything else.
1t has said that Edwards must state
his position on the issues of this cam
paign which of course means whiskey,
according to its views. We are not
authorized to speak for Mr.. Edwards,
but we think we can safely say for him
that he will vote for U. S. senator
who will cast his vote in the u. s.
senate for American institutions, to
protect American industries,a and there
by protect the interest of the laboring
man, and not in the interest of Hold
Hingland. Can the Advocate say
as much for its man?
AS for the whiskey question, which
is the only question at issue, with the
Advocate, they will find Mr.. Ed
wards always voting for the best in
terest of temperance, and for re-
submission of that question to the
people, and let them say, themselves,
what they want.
Mr.. Edwards believes i'll American
institutions, and will vote to maintain
them uLder all circumstances.
1t is a well known fact by all, who know
the Advocates man, that he is intense
English, a man that has always been
more ready to defend the institutions
of England, than those of America
Though for the last few weeks we
must confess that he has be.
come reconciled to America, and her
institutions, not withstanding the fact
that for thirty years he stood ready at
all times to defend England against
all attacks fom this, or any other
country.
How suddenly he has become re-
conciled to the institutions of this
country. 1t is rather late for those
who have known his views so long.
We are satisfied that the people will
send a man to the legislature who will
work for the interest of America, and
not for England. A VOTER.

AN ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING.
Congressman Hsgsr and g. M. Wentworth
nj the Court House Last Night.

Republicanism was largely in evi
dence at the court house last night, the
big crowd, drawn here by the knowl-
edge that a logical and eloquent pre-
sentation of the issues OF the day
would be made. Hon. A. L. Hsger was
introduced to his audience by Jno. A..
Nash, and during the entire time occu
pied by the gentleman the closest at
tentiOn was paid to his remarks. Mr..
Hager devoted the major portion of
his speech to a comparison of the last
two congresses, the results OF demo-
cratic government as shown by the
business depression Of recent memory.
The attitude OF the two parties OH all
lines of business and commercial pol
icy was taken up, and Mr.. Hager show.
ed cOnclu-itely where the blame be-
longs.
E. M. Wentworth, president of the
Iowa Travelingmen's Republican club,
was present and followed Mr.. Hager
with short speech. Mr.. Wentworth
made favorable impression on his
audience, and his talk on the impa-
thence Of democratic candidates TO
discuss the prohibition question
to the exclusion of the impor-
tant questions of the tariff, the cur
rency and wages YVES well received.

grand success and the republicans in

pared to do their duty OH the 9Th of

OBITUARY.

Mr.. William Andrews was a native
of County Down, ireland, born on the
I'd of February 1887. Twenty years
ago last August, he removed with his
wife, whom he married in the same
county in 1867 and who survives him,
to Linn county, Iowa, nine miles south
OF Cedar Rapids, and later to within
about two miles of the city and from
there with his family to Audubon
county to the home where he died.
At the age of "a he united with the
Presbyterian church in County Down
in which he was in infancy baptized
and of which his wife became men,
Der in eally life. Since coming to this
country they united first with the
Methodist Episcopal church and later
again with the Presbyterian church.
AT the time of his death he was a
member of the Methodist church
which, with his wife he joined seven
years ago.
lie has been subject to sickness for
many years. The sickness which ter
minated his life was for about eight
weeks, during which he was often sub
ject to intense suffering, but having
his mind clear to the last.
lie was a gentle spirit and affection
ate husband and father, a neighbor by
all loved and respected. He lived a
life Of faith in his divine Redeemer,
desiring and seeking greater nearness
to him.
On Tuesday, October Is, about four
o'clock in the morning, God kindly
gave him release, and he entered into
rest. He was very grateful for the
kindness of friends and neighbors dur
ing his sickness and he especially
priced the prayers offered by those
who visited him. There is a beautiful
hymn which he greatly enjoyed to have
sung, beginning "My Jesus l Love
Thee l Know Thou Art Mine," express
ing the confidence of faith in which he
had lived and which he had died. ~

A MYSTERIOUS INCIDENT.

One of the most peculiar affairs ever
reported in the criminal history of
Manning, happened Tuesday evening.
The horse and buggy OF Asmus Boy
son had been tied in front of the Park
hotel on that night, by one of the livery
stable boys. When MIR. Boysen pre-
pared to go to his home in the country
the rig was gone. On account :of the
darkness, no search was made that
night. In the morning man who
seemed to be under the influence of
liquor or some drug, walked into town
and asked IL ANYONE had missed a team
He said that he had a faint recollection
of driving off with rig the night be,
fore. The horse, he said, had run away
with him, and that he had been thrown
out upon the ground, where he had
laid all night. Upon Investigation, the
buggy badly demolished, was found
near the home of John Parker. one
mile northeast of town, and the horse
was found few miles farther north

THE NEXT BOND ISSUE.

The latest concerning Il proposed
bond issue is that treasury officials do
not expect to be brought to that neces-
sity until mid winter, If then. 1t is
said in Washington that the treasury
is certain that until February the re-
serve can be kept above 9O,OOO,OOO. 1t
it is found necessary to issue more
bonds it will be done before the reserve
has dropped to $4,000, 900. The treas
ury people think that in that case the
loan could be made under much more
favorable conditions. The govern.
ment. they argue, will no longer be at
the mercy of the bidders for bonds as
was the case last winter when it was
necessary to borrow the gold coin held
In crust against outstanding gold Ger
tificates. If some safeguard can be
provided to prevent drawing gold from
the treasury, All offer of the bonds fol
public bids would attract the gold now
held by interior banks in such large
amounts.
it is even thought that the bids
might allow the treasury to so distrlb
ute the bonds as to bring Il considerable
quantity of gold to it from Europe
The treasury people believe that i
would be a good thing if $35, OOO,OO
could thus come to us from abroad ii
exchange for bonds to be perm anentl.
held abroad. The difficulty with thi
plan, as it has been with the lates
issue. would be to manage this witbou
raising the rate of exchange.-Nonpa

The French government seems to be
taking little interest in Mr.. Walters
case. He has been removed from one
prison to another, where, it is said, the
climate will suit him better, as he is
not very well. He is under twenty
years entence simply because the
French administration in Madagascar
declared .that he conspired with the
natives against French invaders. 1t is
not to be expected that a man aban-
.doned by his own government and
serving sentence of twenty years for
no crime should be in good spirits or
health. Mrs. Waller has been brought
to this country by the United States
government. Will the government 60

F. Lyons, Of Louisville, Kentucky. He
disclaimed any knowledge of how he
came in possession of the rig, but says
he thinks he was drugged and robbed
and then thrown into the buggy, and
the horse turned loose and started
down the street. He claims to have
been robbed of several hundred dollars.

with him then, but when he was
