Mass Convention
Ticket Nominated

A petition calling mass meeting to
convene in the City hall, was circulated
last week, friday among the business
men and citizens, to nominate a ticket
for the approaching municipal election.
w. F, White was instrumental in circu-
lating the etition and Saturday night
quite . representative number of citizens
gathered, not at the City hall as was
first announced, but in the lodge room
Of the Knights Of Pythias.
1t was rumored Saturday that an at
tempt to dominate the convention would
be made by these who placed in nomina-
tion the ticket published in this paper
Friday and upon hearing that such was
the case those who had the meeting iu
charge decided that in order that every
thing should be harmonious as possible
that some other meeting place would be
selected and instructions were sent out
to the signers Of the petition and others
interested that, the meeting would take
place in the hall of the Knights Of
Pythias.
The meeting was called to order and
Horace L. DeLong made temporary
chairman ana d. T. Stone temporary

ing was called and the convention then
got right down to business in placing

A Democratic View.
louisville Conrrler.Jonrnal.l

Mr.. Mckinley is not an ideal leader,
but he is an ideal follower. He has
not the aggressive force, the gigantic
frmness, which enable man to bend
party to his will and make of it his
instrument rather than make of him
self its agent. But he is intelligent,
honest and patriotic. He tries to do
his duty. He wants to do what is best
for his party and for the country, be-
lieving that is also best for Mckinley.
Theodore Roosevelt brings to
the ticket just the things that McKin-
ley cannot give it. He is in every way
McKinley's compliment-in age, in
temperament, in record, in influence.
He will supply the magnetism and in
spire the ardor necessary to a hurrah
campaign. He will light the torches
and wave the flags. But he will do
much more than that. He will attract
a large element of the indepen.
dent vote, which thinks for itself,
which rebels against boss rule, which
recognizes and admires brains, courage
and integrity. There is no man in the
country who has larger following
among this class than Roosevelt, and
it is class which is daily growing
stronger and more assertive in the
affairs of government. But Roose-
velt's strength will be even greater
among the young men, among the full
blooded Americans of action and prog.
ress, who believe in fighting when
fighting is necessary, and who, how.
ever proudly they may look back on
their country's past, look forward to
its future even more proudly.

over 5000 shares of stock in that com
pany, An employe is offered the priv
lege of subscribing for one share at q
time. This he can pay for by install
ments in sums of So, or SO, or $l5,
and when one share is paid for the
owner has his name registered on the
books of the company, when, if he
wishes, he can begin to buy another
share on the installment plan. While
paying for his stock the employee re
ceives interest at the rate of four per
cent per annum, providing he does not
allow twelve consecutive months to
elapse without making any payments
at all. In case the employe leaves the
service of the company, h. must pay
in full for the shares for which he has
been subscribing or withdraw his
money with the interest that is due
thereon.
This is an excellent system. 1t gives
the men direct, personal interest in
the affairs of the company for which
they are working, and makes an in
vestment Mt fair rate of interest for
their savings. Besides this they be-
come partners in one of the gigantic
corporations or trusts of the company,
and may be classed among those who
are decried by the democrats as being
capitalists, monopolists and extortion-
lists. But the men out our way don't
mind what they are called as long as
they are well employed, with good
wages, have a mutual interest in the
ownership of the property for which
they are working, and can see little
capital accumulating every year for
their families. And these are condi-
lions that exist in Iowa today, both
among the railroad hands, the farmers
and the factory people. Business, of
course, is better for the merchants and
storekeepers, and for these reasons,
which / have been talking about, Iowa
will give President Mckinley bigger
majority in 1900 than the state gave in
1896"

general war in the near future because

cause the United States will not join
England, Germany and japan in resist
ing Russian aggression. We are told
that if the United States will abandon
her traditional policy and form an
alliance with England, Germany and
Japan against Russia she may preserve
the peace of the world. This is an
English view. The American view is
that Russia in China is no more
dangerous to the peace of the world
than England. Just now the Ameri-
cans and Russians seem to be bearing
the brunt of the fighting in the interest
of peace in China, and Europe is not
