Special to Times-Republican
Boone, Aug. 30.-Judge j. L. Stevens
of this place, last night decided to be-
come candidate for the nomination
for congressman from the Tenth dis
-trict. A rumor has been circulated to
the effect that Stevens had Withdrawn,
but the fact is he had not decided TO be
candidate until last evening. The
Boone Republican last evening an
nounced that it would support him and
that he would make the race for the
nomination. Editor Kneedler was sup
posed to be opposed to Stevens. as he
has not trained with the Stevens crowd
politically. While calling attention to
this fact the Republican says: I'VE be-
lieye that If the friends of Judge Stew
ems Will give him their loyal support
and If the republicans of Boone county
Will consider their own interests the
next representative in congress from
the Tenth district will be Boone
county man, and his name will be
Stevens"
Judge Stevens conferred with Senator
Ericsson before announcing his candi-
dacy. The senator has not intended to
be candidate, as many reports would
indicate. Stevens will be Boone's only
candidate and will have the solid sup
port of the county. He is considered
the ablest man thus far announced.

The SAFE WOULDN'T OPEN.
Peculiar misfortune of Fort Dodge
Bank

Dubuque, Aug. 3O-A safe containing
$50, 600 arrived on a freight train Tues
day night from Fort Dodge. The safe
could not be opened in that city 80 it
was shipped to Dubuque, and here will
be opened by Frank w. Johnson. Ii is
strange and remarkable that 1t should
be necessary to send safe hundred
miles away to be opened when the per-
son who closed the safe is still living in
Fort Dodge.
The steel safe ia one used in the Fort
Dodge Savings Bank, and is an unusu-
ally large one. One afternoon a short
time ago it was closed at the. usual
banking hour. In it was deposited
about 100000 in coin and bank notes.
The safe is modem in make and is
locked by the combination locks usually
used. These locks are made with dial
and knob on the door. And this is the.
reason why it is necessary to have the
eafe opened in Dubuque.
g Between closing time that evening
and the opening of the bank the next
day the dial of the lock had been
knocked off or SO badly bent. thru the
.carelessnes's Of an employe, as to make
It impossible to open the strong box in
the morning. Local locks,men were
called in to open 1t. but they had neither
the skill nor the necessary tools with
which to do the work. Then the officers
OF the bank sent to Dubuque for Mr..
johnson, Whois a safe dealer, to try his
skill
Mr.. Johnson went to Fort Dodge a
day or two ago to do the work, but as
he had not taken the necessary tools
