A Needed Improvement.

winter. Persons in "A surry to catch "A

LOCAL COMMENT.

The result of the recent case in a jus
tice court in which violation of the fish
laws was charged does not mean that
deputy game warden.s commission nee
sessarily affords protection to the holder
thereof.
The east court room ought to be
packed with farmers and business men
on Wednesday evening. when the meet
ing in the interests of the Nicholson's
ford road improvements is to be held.
The matters of securing good roads.
leading from the country to the city is
of foremost Importance, and the present
movement Is the first that has been at
tended with a practical suggestion.
Those who inspired IT are practical and
earnest men and if they secure the co.
operation of their neighbors in both city
and country the worst piece of road in
Marshall county will become the best.
Those good citizens who think the
moral tone of Marshalltown is not up to
standard ought to take jaunt to some
of the other cities of Iowa-Duouque,
the occasion of some big gathering.
can see more deviltry and law breaking
In one square block than they can find
on the whole town plat at home.
The T.-R. usually is enabled to pre-
sent the news of the day to Its thous
ands of readers each evening, and when
something unusually important trans
pires after the regular edition has been
circulated a special edition Is issued.
The extra issued after the close of the
Cedar Rapids convention was greatly
appreciated by T.R. patrons There
was as much interest manifested in
the outcome of that convention as there
Is In national election. and many peo-
pie sat up late in order to receive the
news.
From the expressions heard 1t Is very
evident that the ticket named at Cedar
Rapids gives the greatest of satisfaction
to Marshalltown county republicans
From Cummins to Herriott, Weaver,
Brown and Barrett republicans will be
proud to support the ticket as not only
are these men the right ones but the
men themselves are the cleanest, ablest
and most high minded men ever gath
cred together on single ticket. Many
democrats admit that their party has
been robbed Of an issuesin state politics
by the naming of such anti-machine
men as Brown and Weaver and He.
riott and Cummins and IL srorii6 not be
at all surprising If the ticket this fall
polled the largest percentage of Mar
shall countys total vote that any ticket
has ever polled
Those men who We're on the other side
from sincere motives and homes; con-
vicAons can cheerfully say, I'm for
Cummins now and not feel a single
pain of humiliation but to those VINO OPP
posed Mr.. Cummins for hire or because
Cummins had friends they didn't IKE, a
sense OF stteir degradation must be
craving at their conscience. 1t Is easy

William Baker, "a Old Resident
Of the County. Expires
Very Suddenly.
Called by His Daughter This
Morning and Is Minutes
Later Is Dead.
Heart Disease Assigned as the
Cause--Co Comrades Search for
a Friends Mother.

Death came suddenly and apparently
without pain or a struggle this morning
to William Baker. one of the older resi-
dents of the city, and we'll known thru
out the county as pioneer. Mr.. Baker
died at about O'clock at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. C. S. Miller, 606 East
Church street, where he has been living
for the past few years.
Mrs. Miller called her father, as is her
usual morning custom, at about 6:45
o'clock, and he answered the summons
as usual. Breakfast was awaited until
Mr.. Baker could get dressed and down
stairs, but as he was trifle slower than
usual Mrs. Miller called him again. This
time she received no response and, go
ing to his room, found him dead. "A ply
stefan was summoned, but after a hasty
examination pronounced life absolutely
extinct, with heart failure as the cause.
William Baker was born on Aug. %,
1928, in Hamilton county, Ohio near
Cincinnati. He came west as it was
then termed. in 1862, stopping in In
diana for three years, and coming to
Marshalltown in the spring of 1865. Five
y
and one half miles south of town, where
he resided until 1895, when he moved
back to the city. His wife died In this
city on May 16. 1897.
Mr.. Baker leaves as members Of his
immediate family two sons and three
daughters. Messrs. Charles A, and Ed
ward D. Baker and Mrs. G. 8. Miller
reside in this city, while the other two
daughters. Mrs. Theodore H. Watson
and Miss Emma Baker, live in Des
Moines. A younger brother, Enos Baker,
the last of family of eight children,
also survives him, and is resident of
| Irving Park, Chicago. A rather pecul-
lar circumstance in connection with Mr..
Bakers death is the fact that all OF the
| eight children of his fathers family
have died one or two years apart, in ex-
act order as regarded their age, Mr..
Baker being the next youngest of the
family.
The funeral will be conducted Sunday
afternoon at 4:30 O'Clock from the home

~ Charles Bacon, of Des Moines, was
struck by the Great Western passenger
Mo- = thu morning at 1890 and will be
likely to die from his injuries. The ac-i
ci9ent occurred on the curve between
Third and Sixth streets. Conductor
! Ftckas who was in charge Of the train,
and the other train men say the man
was asleep on the track with llis head
resting oh the rail. Owing to the curve
the engineer did not see him until too

I'd up inR an unconscious state and
Drought to the depot, where his injuries
were at once seen to be of serious ma
ture. A wide cash extended across the
top OF the frontal bone to the skull,
leaving the larger part OF the bone bare.
BLOOD was issuing from his ears and
more and his breathing denoted frac-
tufe. or al any rate depression of the
1kull and the accompanying brain pres
Illre. The companys surgeon was called
and applied an emergency dressing, af-
ter which the injured man was removed
to the county Jail.
Bacon, which seems to be the mans
name. had been connected with the
show. but told Third avenue barber
this morning that he quit the aggrega-
ton Last night. He said that he was a
broncho buster and had been doing a
riding act, but could make more money
atsAmes, where he broke horses, last
summer Mervin, who identified the
man, says he was a horse trader and
breaker when at Des Moines, and that
he is married. Farther than this no one
knew anything of him.
Bacon was evidently under the influ-
ence Of liquor. His pocket contained
nothing but few cigaret papers and
some soap wrapped in handkerchiefs.
He will probably not survive his i.,jur-
les, tho the physicians say there is a
poasihflfty in his favor 49, #
