in an alleged heir appeared after the
death 81 Mott Watson OF Maquoketa

claiming to be an illegitimate son. An
other casesof a similar nature promises
to develop In this judicial district, and
some rather sensational claims are la
BILE to be made.
G Al Davenport, on the 18th Of August.
occurred the death OF DR.. p. Walter
Com Naughton, a well-to-do specialist.
At that time 1t wasssupposed that his
wife wasSti,e only survivor and the heir
70 hiD estate. The settlement Of the ee-
tate went thru the legal course Of pro-
cedure and was about to be turned over
to the wife Of the deceased when. few;
days ago, an alleged son visited Daven-
port and laid claim to two-t thirds Of the
entire estate and an OF $4,000 on dee
post in Davenport bank. The alleged
heir says his name is G. A. Con- Naugh-
ton, and that he Is the son OF the doc
tor by q former marriage. He says his
mothers name was Alice Lamar and
that she married his father In Georgia
In 1858. Soon after hfs birth his mother
died and on her death bed gave her only
eon to her sister. the father conserving
.to:3the agreement. In 1879 DR.. Con-
Naughton married Miss Elizabeth Nc
Daniel, Of Virginia. and soon after
moved to Davenport, where he built up
/ large practice az a specialist. If the
father heard from his son he kept the
matter secret, as his most intimate
friends never heard him allude TO a for
mer marriage, altho 1t is thought the
doctor did not forget the son he had left
many yeare ago In Georgia, as he de-
posted few years ago in bank in
Davenport $4,000 payable to G. A. Con-
Naughton, on the order Of p. Walter
Con-Naughton. This amount the alleged
heir claims is his and VA 3 placed in the
bank for him by his father. The bank
has refused to pay the money to either
Mrs. Con- Naughton or the alleged heir.
The latter Gays he can prove his claim
and the matter will undoubtedly go
thru the courts. ~

want License jaw Repe.Ied.

Des Moines, Oct. One OF the objects
OF the Des Moines Dairy Association,
that is now being formed in this city, is
to oppose the state law which requires
milk dealers to pay to the state an an
nual license fee. This law, which has
been In force for numbe r of years, res
Iqufres each dairyman to pay 81 annu-
ally to the state for q permit. 1t has
never been popular requirement with
the dealers. and eventually 1t is hoped
by the association to bring test case
in the courts and knock out the obnox-
ious statute.
The association. which elected officers
at recent meeting, now has mem
5bership OF twenty-six members. about
half the milk dealers in the city. The
officers are Ed Bragd on, president; H.
ID. Shoemaker, vice president; W. II.
Davis, treasurer; and A. Terry, secre-
tary. 1t is hoped to increase the mem
lbership until 1t includes practically all
the dealers in Des Moines. At the next
meeting, to be held next Saturday
might, steps will be taken to bring more
members into the fold Of the associa-
stion.
Mr.. Terry, the secretary, in speaking
of the association, said its objects were
to further harmony between the deal
ers. to provide a credit system that
should be a protection against delin-
quent customers. and to aid in buying
supplies. AS to bringing a test case to
knock out the law requiring an annual
license fee, Mr.. Terry said 1t might not
be possible to get this until next year.
BY that time. however, 1t was hoped to
bring an action. in the district court.
The opposition of the dairymen. to
paying the fee has been Felt at the Office
of the state dairy commissioner. who
has had much trouble in collecting the
fees from part OF the dealers. For a
time this fall the commissioner expected
to be forced to bring suits to enforce the
collections
INVESTIGATION COMPLETED.
The board of control took the testi-
mony of Judge Kline and John Cownie
In the John w. Stone case vest erday.
When it is transcribed it will be kept
on record in the boards office with the
rest OF the testimony. This completes
the investigation Of the Stone case and
in few days the board will make a
statement az to its findings.

rochial schools. In the course of his re-
marks to ST. Mary's German Catholic

he insisted that English must be taught
i'm all the German Catholic parochial
schools in the arc idiocese He insisted
further that the catechism must be
learned in.sthe English tongue Continu-
ing. he said that the objections to re-
|ligion in this country were advanced in
the English language, and must be an
swered and refuted in the same lan-
guage, II the objections are to be an
swered on the proper line. He said that
"a person born in this country should
learn the language Of his country. and
the language Of another country after.

An Expensive smallpox Case.
fNlGt. ilsss Ok
smallpox which this city contributed
last winter has proven a very expensive
guest. The board of health hired DR.. j.
H. McGready to care for the case and.
allowed his bill of $500. The board of
supervisors in acting upon it cut the
amount of charges in two. The case
was carried to the courts and Judge
Plat ordered the jury to find for the
physician on the ground that the board
of health has authority to employ a.
physician and fix his compensation and
the board of supervisors could not re-
duce the amount allowed. This brings
the total cost of the case to s1,50O.

courage to stand by his convictions
of right, under all circumstances.
Webster Davis, Assistant Secretary
of the Interior, seems to be this
kind of statesman. He has resigned
his office, after visiting South Africa
in order to make lecturing tour in
behalf of the struggling Beers,
whom he describes as making the
most heroic fight for liberty during
the century. Hurrah for Webster
Davis, even if he is a republican.
The Associated Press news agency,
which stands in with the goldbugs,
and It's goldbug administration, may
keep up its carIcature of Davis, but
it will not detract one iota from his
bold and courageous move for civil
liberty for the dOwntrodden Beers.

only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the

When this tube gets inAamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its

1T IS MAYOR TOM ESTES.
A Three to One Shot Mayor for Our
West Side City.-All Aldermen
Elected by Good Big
Majority.

Yesterday the West Side held an
election for city officers, that is for
Mayor, City Engineer and for Al
dermen, one from each Ward.
The candidates were all active
and had out carriages and runners
and while the vote was slight one,
was interesting from the fact that
those elected, we're chosen by good
large majorities, which leaves no
room for contest on the part of
any single candidate. I|
1t was known and talked of for
several days before the election
that Thos. Estes was the favorite
with the masses and bets were Of
fered freely two to one on Estes
against the field without takers.
Mr.. Estes started here as a boy,
as a blacksmith's apprentis and
grew up to be striker, and from
striker to proprietor of his own
shop, and he now owns the largest
shop in the city and hires several
hands to help him at the forges
and benches. He is not above
work himself and when. he gets in a
rush he puts on his apron and
makes a full hand. We venture to
say that Texarkana will be pleased
with his administration of affairs
and that he will make an honest
and conscientious Mayor, We say
long live the new elect and may he
not disappoint those who voted for
him. @ r
A word for the alderman elected.
We recognize in the six, men of
sense and good judgment and we
can hope for successful admins
tration during their term.
