TWO REPLIES.

To the Pigeon:-The difference be-
tween that which the REVIEW said
aboAt the southern lynchers and that
which the Bulletin said about Iowa's
state officials is this; what the REVIEW
said is true-what the Bulletin said is
untrue.
To the Hermaphrodite:-A man who
has changed his politics four times in
eighteen months should be careful what
he says about the connection between
principles and business interes $.

FOURTEEN ARRESTS MADE.
Mayor and alarshalls Kept Busy with Buns

Mayor and Marshalls Kept Busy with Buns |
and Drunks The Funny Man.
Denison police court was kept busy
yesterday and before the mayor went
home at 10 O'Clock the docket showed |
fourteen commitments. The days
work ended up with three buns, one
OF whom-Ellsworth. was typical pro-
duct of the Chicago slums. While
waiting for the mayor he undertook to
entertain the crowd. He made quite
'sspiel' inviting the boys to come again
saying there would be change of bill
every night and that little Ida would
recite different poem. He said he
been training the ''colts" and hoped
they would win the pennant, but they
were week on short as the player failed
to catch the hot liners, some of those
liners that only stop at county seats
you know" .I'll be sorry for this in
few minutes, he said, ''I'll get about
fifty years for talking 80 much. The
marshall is good fellow. l was
standing on the track and he came
along you're pinched' said he. 'How's
that, says L, your shoes are tight"
Later in the game he cooled down, but
when one of the other buns asked what
he was charged with he could not re-
frain from breaking in with 'sYou're
charged with electricity, you fool.'' The
mayor was generous with him. He got
thirty days while the other boys got off
with ten. One Of the experiences of
the afternoon was with a tough
customer who sauntered into the Treas
urer Lorenzen's office just at closing
time. He showed passed Andy just as
he was at the door and said he was
looking for some one. The treasurer
told him there was no one there and to
get out of the Office. He did so, but be-
gan following Mr.. Lorenzen home.
Andy did not like this and turned ON
Il e fellow and with some assistance
succeeded in capturing him and turn
ing him over to the authorities. He
had razor and an ugly looking knife
and Lorenzen feels that he meant mis-.
chief.

During the rain storm on Tuesday
night lightning struck the large barn
of Peter Swanson's one and one half
mile west of Kiron. The entire barn
with its contents of hay and harness
together with nine head of horses and
eight head of COWS were consumed in a
short while. Adjoining sheds also
caught fire and nearly all of Mr.. Swan
sons new farm machinery were de-
volred by the flames. Efforts were
made to save the horses, but the at
tempt proved unsuccessful owing to
the flames which spread very rapidly.
Several days before Mr.. Swanson sold
one of his ponies to V. E. Michaelson,
and it was in the barn and burned with
the others. Some thousands of BUSH
els of corn, wheat and oats were con-
sumed. MIR. Swanson carried small
insurance i'll the Kiron Mutual Insur-
ance company. His loss is estimated
at some fifteen hundred dollars over
the insurance. This is indeed heavy
loss to our enterprising farmer, Swan
son.

1T WILL BURN.
, Boys Experiment with Gasoline
and Find That 1t win Burn.

This forenoon a blaze occurred be-
tween Randall's meat market and Hill
& Sons marble works which came near
to destl Dying both buildings and which
might have consumed everything on
the block on the south side of Broad
way. Little damage was done however
on account of the prompt action of
those who brought buckets of water to
the scene. When the fire companies
arrived the fire was entirely under con-
troll. Randall's chicken coop was
scorched aud the north side of Hills
bui' ding badly charred. The young
lady who has SO long languished in the
pictorial hammock inviting all to take
laxative displays her charms no more,
however, and this is perhaps the great
est loss to the community. The fire
started from match in the hands of
jennie Cochran. w. e. Johnson. Ran
dall's clerk, poured some gasoline onto
the ground as he was about to refill the
tank. Johnnie wanted to see if it
would burn and applied lighted
match. He gives it as his opinion now
that gasoline is a highly inflammable
liquid, and we are willing to regard
him as an authority. We do not think
Johnnie had any malicious intent but
it was careless trick, which he should
have known better than to have done.
The editor began his incendiary career
at the age of three when he fired a
house in honor of the Fourth of july so
we will be lenient in judgingrothers.

The status Of the sugar bounty
bills in the Legislature is this: The
senate has passed bill repeating
the present Law, and thus doing
away with the bounty altogether.
The house has passed . bill amend.
ing the present law. Il provides
that not more than 40, 900 per year
shall Be paid II bounties for the
next two years, and that no bounty
be paid after that time. Il further
provides that not more than 42O,.
600 be paid to any one congress.
sional district IN any one year.
The effect Of this would be that
the factory now established 1t st.
Losis park cannot receive more
than az, 900 IN bounty for each Of
theitwo years. The bill specifies
that farmers shall be paid no less
than four dollars per ton for their
beet, and that sugar man factured
shall BE of.s certain quality.
It is likely that the house bill
will be passed By the senate, since
IL is not probable that the house
will consent TO I'll ABSOLUTE repesl
Of the bounty law y this time.
