IT would be good idea for the
voters to politically kill off some OF
the so.called leaders in the Repub-
lican party in this State. IN other
words, repudiate them at the polls.
There will be repetition OF Ken
lucky affairs in Delaware, as far
as the right OF men to vote has been
made operative by a Democratic
Legislature. The same thing is
being done to disfranchise colored
men in Maryland, to punish them
for voting the Republican ticket.
This plan isto be put into effect all
over the South, by which means it
is hoped Mckinley will he defeated
and Bryan elected President.

suit to recover Frolant Dues.

Fort Dodge, Nov. 27.-Attorney Il. NJ.
Wright left this morning for Boone,
where he will represent the NJ. 6 st. l..
railroad in suit against the Marshall
town & Dakota railroad. The case Is
peculiar one and is pronounced by rail-
road men to be unexampled in previous
railroad history.
The NJ. & st. Il. brings suit to recover
sums of money which they allege to
have been fraudulently held back by the
other road from The collections for
freight charges. 1t is the custom with
railroads when in shipping freight it
becomes necessary for one road TO use
the line of another road, that the road
whose line is used shall collect all the
freight charges and shall refund TO the
road which shipped the goods in the first
place the sum which fightfully accrues
to IT..
This the NJ. g. St. l.. claim the Mar
shalitown & Dakota have failed to do
and bring suit to recover the amount,
which they al,ege to he due them from
Withheld freight charges. The exact
sum for which the suit Is brought can
no: be learned, but II is said to be for a
large amount and is awaited with much

Eldora, Nov. PA Des Moines paper

the Eagle Grove foot ball team Is dis
satisfied with the result OF the game
played at Eldora on November 49, that
the Eldora umpire was manifestly un-
fair in every decision that required
any knowledge of the game; that the
players on the Eldora team were all
lowed liberties unknown to foot ball
players and same We're denied to their
i(Eagle Groves) players; that the game
should have been a tie; that the Eagle

tlemanly treatment and fair decisions,

OF course Eagle Grove is dissatisfied

Each side furnished an umpire. The
same umpire was not questioned by the
college teams who played here, but
perhaps those teams did not Understand
the game very we'll. The only liberty
taken by the Eldora players which was
not allowed to the Eagle Grove players
so far Is known here was when an Ell
dora player crawled under Eagle
Groves line and demanded and re-
ceived from their startled quarter back
the ball and ran the whole length Of
the field for a touchdown. Such liber-
ties. however, will not hereafter be un-

game should have been tie, but the

Wheat Market Dull and Buying

Chicago, Nov. 27-The November corn
corner. engineered and controlled by
George H. Phillips, while playing the
star role on the board Of trade today,
furnished nothing spectacular in nature.
November corn opened at 49@49al cents,
compared with yesterdays close at ~.
The shorts bid the price to so cents in a
few minutes, Phillips taking in 5,100
bushels at that figure. A minute later
he sold it back to those from whom he
ii at 81 cents Rebuying was
for shorts on stop-loss orders. many of
which Were in the pit, between 40 and oil.
During the forenoon Phillips sold about
10000 bushels. Stocks of contract corn
today We're reported at 1.l5l. 900 bushels
here, an increase of 4sl, 900 bushels for
the week. OF todas's receipts but fifty
seven cars We're of the grade which may
be delivered on November contracts.
Young traders who Were on the wrong
side of the market, but who were friends
and companions of Phillips in his less
influential days. have, it is said, been al
lowed to settle their deals with him
without loss to themselves.
1t was stated on the best of authority
today that large quantities of standard
No. 2 corn. which for the most part was
shipped east by James n. Patten during
his September and October operations.
are being loaded into the cars at Buf-
falo and Montreal and will be shipped
back to Chicago as fast as the corn can
be hauled. This corn, it is stated, has
4been rebought by Chicago shorts, who
figure on getting it here by Friday in
time for delivery to Phillips on this

Chicago. Nov. 27.-The receipts last
week We're l.5s2 head, against 1.176 the
preceding week and l,749 the same week
last year. Thus far this month only 204
horses have been exported, against L.
$50 for the same period last year and L.
lao the like period TWO years ago. Re-
ceipts are increasing. but the export
trade is unimproved. and therefore
prices are no better. The domestic de-
mand is about fair, and there are no
new features noticed. The principal in
quiry is for heavy drafters at S16Oa200
for prime animals With medium grades
slow at saoM135. The export buying is
light, and restricted principally to coach
horses and fancy drivers. a number of
sales being closed at S325@9e5. The in
quiry for southern chunks at s35ISO is
of large volume, with orders in excess
of the supply. Farm chunks sell at

Iowan Talks on the Phillipss Corner

Dea MoiRes, Nov. 27.-Corn sold on
the streets here Monday for SO cents. on
account of the Phillips corner. Farmers
are hauling corn TO the city instead of \
gathering what is in the fields. Capt. NJ. \
T. Russell, the Des Moines authority on
grain as money product for farmers,
said:
The truth ia that Phillips has bought
all the good corn. He bought low and is
ready TO sell, only buyers must give
him his price. He offered the sellers 43
cents several days ago, a raise of sev-l
eraI cents above what they sold for. but |
they refused TO give him the benefit nf
the advance, and now he is in a position
to dictate The wet weather and other
conditions have made the corn trade
rather peculiar. In the first place there
IS no No. . or 8 corn in the West. The
crop Of this state, for instance. will not
