AND STILL THEY COME.

Last week we commented upon the
fact that Trustee l.. S. McElwain, of
Eagle township, brought a certain tax
eYader to the chalk line and thus cor
rallied" S500.00 of taxes which the cOun-
ty would have lost had that township
less diligent trustee. Since that time,
we notice from the Review, Trustee l..
G. Golf, of Kiowa township, has also
driven blow III that direction with
equally good results. The Standard
Oil Company, during the past few
years, has made Kiowa a central point,
and supplies intermediate cities III
considerable scope of surrounding ter
ritory. Under former republican trus-
tees this gigantic concern was not as
sessed but was allowed to fitch money
from the public without contributing a
copper to the treasury in return. But
when Lemuel G. Golf was elected TO
the responsible office OF trustee there
was change and now the Standard
Oil Co. is on the tax rolls. The repre-
sentatives of the company kicked like
bay steer in a heel fly charge, and it
required a contempt proceeding to
bring them to taw, but Golf fetched"
them nevertheless.
We understand there are others of
the same class who were heretofore in
the habit of evading their just share of
taxes. who have been headed off, and
those who were thus served are swear
ing vengeance on Mr.. Golf; but the
best element of people of Kiowa town
ship, as we'll as those of Barber coun-
ty, are with him and his work needs
no defender. Next

FOR THE IOWA spEAKERsHIP.

FOn s0G tOWA SFeANeHSHIP.
It is taken for granted that the legis-
lature will be republican, and as the
campaign is on early this year the
question Of who is to speaker cannot be
postponed or kept in the background.
Eastern Iowa having carried off, to all
intents and purposes, the speakership
of the national house, it is not surpris-
ing that the thought Of western Iowa
should be directed to capture of the
speakership of the Iowa house Of repre-
sentatives. Over in the Seventy-sixth
representative district they have taken
mp the matter promptly and the name
Of their candidate is Hon. M. E. De-
Wolf, Of Laurens, Pocahontas county.
Mr.. DeWolf was a member of the last
general assembly, and he proved SO ac-
ceptable to his constituents that Hum
boldt county this year will join with
POcahOntas and give him as fiattering
q denomination as any man could ask.
The Journal has assurance to this eff
feet upon which it relies confidently.
At any rate, there is abundant warrant
for saying that the admiring friends of
Mr.. DeWolf in his home neighborbood
are SO sure of their ground that they
have entered upon campaign in Mr..
DeWolf's behalf for the speakership;
and Mr.. DeWolf is at least to be con-
graduated upon the good quality of his
friends and upon the earnestness of
their efforts in his behalf. The press
opinions from Mr.. DeWolf's district,
which might be thought. with it's two
counties and no end of towns, to be
formed for local division, if circum-
stances would permit, are united in
Mr.. DeWolf's support, and generous
throughout in expression toward him,
as man of ability and of character
and of high qualification for the dis
tinction sought in his behalf. The
journal at this writing does not know
of an Eleventh district man who is sug-
gested for the speakersh;p, and as the
honor the last time fell to the Ninth
district, the Tenth would be {. suitable
location for it now. If the Tenth disy
trict appears to be good deal lin it,"
who can deny, having the men, and the
becoming union among them, that that

Was Hot at La Iona He Fell By Hills Side

The story Of the fate that befell John
A. Gibbons, one of the hospital corps,
while helping Captain Hill from the
field, is told thus by one Of Major Ad-
ANS assistants: 1.-The members of the
hospital corps, including the poor fell
low now dead, had got little rest, be-
ing under orders not even to take off
our shoes when we lay down. About
a. m. we were called out and sent
after some wounded men. Then we
were sent to blockhouse II, up long,
narrow road. through rice fields, where
they were fighting like bears. They
lost a lot of men, but they kept on like
heroes and carried the point. A couple
of days after that the Montana boys,
with the Kansas companies, made
their charge and captured Caloocan.
Poor Gibbon and I were sent out to
bring Captain Hill, who had been Sc
verely wounded, across the field. A
rain of bullets was falling around us,
and one of them struck John in the
breast and went clean through his
heart. The poor fellow never knew
what struck him. He was one of the
best boys in the hospital corps. He was
faithful in the discharge of duty, he
placed himself in peril in trying to help
a wounded officer from the field and all
of his comrades deplored his death.
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-10-24

OF all the hot fighting the Montana
regiment did in the Philippines the men
think the advance from La Iona
brought them the sharpest work. At
least it was here that the greatest
number of casualties was suffered for
the time the companies were actually
engaged, La Iona church had been
taken and the rebels driven from the
town. At 6 o'clock on the morning
of March rs the order to advance on
the Filipinos, who, after being forced
to retreat, had entrenched themselves
about two miles outside, was given.
If ever the Montanans saw hard serv-
ice it was during those next two hours
Eevery inch of ground was disputed.
But there could be but one ending-the
Montana boys carried the Filipino po-
sition by storm. In those two hours of
carnage % brave fellows had felt the
sting of rebel bullet. Out of a squad
of eight from Company G seven men
were hit while crawling on a block
house. Many of the wounds were slight,
but it was in this gallant charge that
Joe Beckman, Steve Stevens, Percy
Lockhart, Robert Brown and William
Mitschke were counted among the
dead.

force from their entertainments, rout
ing the enemy completely. The first
thing the men said when they came
back was: When can we have some
grub?"
Much has been said," said Chaplain
Stull, through the military bureaus,
of the brave feat of Brigadier General
Funston in swimming the Bagbag riv-
er and discovering the position of the
enemy. Before General Funston had
thought to do this thing, Cavanaugh
OMalley of Company NJ had gone out
from our extreme position on the right
and had crossed the river and recon-
noitered, finding that the trenches
were empty. So much for fame"
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-10-24
Told BY the Chaplain.

Telling of this or that incident in the
campaign, Chaplain Stull mentioned
the fact that, on the advance from the
Chinese cemetery toward Caloocan,
Fred Hall of Company I was shot and
mortally wounded. His brother, of the
same company, fell out of the ranks
and remained by Fred, overcome with
grief, While the doctor was examin-
ing the wounded man and the hospital
corps was coming for him, a sharp
shooter in a tree was making a target
of the two Hall boys and the doctor.
The bullets were coming pretty close,
but it was sometime before Halls
brother noticed that the little group
was under fire. Finally he was told
that there was a sharpshooter in a tree
trying to kill him too. Without a word
he picked up his gun, located the d.
rection and, firing, a dead Filipino
dropped to the ground. Halls only
remark was, THAT may have been the
man that killed Fred"
ION the advance from Malinta to
Bigaa," added the chaplain, latter
hot, tedious day, at 5 o'clock the regi-
ment, with the Third artillery and the
Goth Kansas, was seeking place for
encampment when we were suddenly
attacked by the enemy in front from
the bamboo jungle that fringed the
