Ex-senator Washburn of Mine.
cato

The Republican party upholds trusts,
because they furnish the funds to con-
troll elections. The young man of to-
day who supports the republican party,
except of course those who are bene-
tcially connected with trusts and mo-
nopolies, stands in his own light when
he by his word or vote aids in main
tanning it. In recent interview Ex-
Senator Washburn, of Minnesota, a
life long republican, thogh now it
seems not in accord with his party on
the subject of trusts, truly said:
"The present situation, to the good
citizen, the good republican and the
man who loves his country, is really
alarming, and it is more largely owing
to the rapid formation of what is cal
led the trust than to any other agency.
First, the trust craze has changed the
whole nature of doing things. When
was a young mani am now 6s-I had
the world before me, and there was an
absolutely fair field before me. Take
all of our most successful business
men of today and their experiences
were like mine. They entered the race
without handicap and their grit and
capacity won. Now this building up
of trusts puts stop to fair and equal
opportunities for the young men of
today. The young man just out of
college has no opening as a rule. He
cannot begin business on his own ac-
count against organized capital He
must join the procession. He must
content himself with being mere
clerk and the chances are that he will
never get any further, because there
are SO many in his class. This makes
the situation serious one, and am
sorry for the young man of today.
I've studied the situation and I'm
sure of what | am saying"

INDEPENDENCE ASYLUM.
The Annual Report of superintend-
ent Hill Gives Statistics and Makes
Several Suggestions.

Superintendent Gershom Hill, of the
Independence asylum, has filed his re-
port with the state board of control.
The number of patients at Independ-
ence June 80, 1898, was 1921. The num-
Der admitted last year was 342; number
trtated, 1868; recovered, SO; improved,
lis; unimproved, SO; died, So; not in
sane, 2; number remaining June 80,
1899, 1850. DR.. Hill says in his report
that epileptic patients cannot be prop
erly cared for at an insane hospital.
He urges the board of cont troll to make a
strong attempt to secure from the legis-
lature provision for an epileptic colony.
Concerning county asylums, he says:
rs the state of Iowa in such cramped
pecuniary condition that she is unwill-
ing to make the incurable insane as
comfortable as POSSIBLE? If old people
are bereft of reason so they cannot re-
main at home are they to do without
special diet, nurse and physician when
thew lie down to die ."

IMPORTANT ARRESTS.
The Sheriff of Story County Captures
in Ames Two Men Accused
of Serious Crimes.

Charles Yancy and Charles Smith, the
Gated in the shooting of Conductor
Hicks at Kelly on the 3Oth of August
last, were given their preliminary hear
ing in Ames. They were found guilty
and bound over to the next grand jury.
In company of third one, who got
away, they went through state fair
train at Ames and secured conductors
checks for Des Moines from some of the
passengers in the chair car. They went
in the smoking car with the checks in
their hats, intending in this manner to
avoid paying their fares.
Just before reaching Kelly Conductor
Hicks detected the trick and ordered
them to pay their fare or get off the
train, which they refused to do. They
pulled their guns and jumped on the
conductor who succeeded in getting
them out of the door just as the train
pulled into Kelly. AS they jumped off
one of them shot Hicks, the ball enter
ing the forearm, inflicting a serious
wound. They were captured the next
day at Saylor and taken to Nevada Jail.
The trial was delayed on account of
Conductor Hicks injuries. The North
western railroad is determined to make
an example of these men and are maxi
ing every effort to find the third one,
who escaped.
Sheriff Banks thinks he has in Gus
tody the men who are wanted for the
murder of G. Mathews and j. e. Wilson,
the Chicago Great Western brakemen
who were murdered and thrown from a
freight train near Marshalltown on the
night of the 21st of August. The men
under arrest answer exactly the de-
scription of the men wanted for the
Marshalltown affair. The authorities
there have been notified of the find.
