Primaries were held by both parties
inthe various wards of the city Monday
night for the purpose of nominating
candidates for Councilmen to be elect
ed at the municipal election on Mon
day May ~.
All Of the meetings were poorly
attended, showing the lack of interest
taken bv the citizens in municipal
matters.
All ten of the meetings passed on
quietly and were void of any exciting
contests.
In the Republican meeting in the
Third Ward the most interesting con-
test took place. In this meeting .the
first man nominated was Mr., A. ;.
Poisal. who arose and declined the
honor. Mr.. w. II. Crawford was
then placed in nomination and, on
motion, the nominations were closed.
The chairmen deemed that was all that
was necessary and those present DIS
banded without motion for ADJOURN
ment After adjournment it was real
lied that the nominations had been
merely closed and no one nominated
according to the customary rules.
The meeting was then called to or.
der again and ballot taken. This
ballot resulted in Messrs. Crawford
and Poisal receiving tie vote. On
the second ballot Mr.. Polsal received
majority of one vote and he was de-
clared the nominee of the Republi can
party in the Third Ward.
The other primaries We're practi-
cally without incident, resulting in
the candidates named above being
nominated.

"The Belle of New York" which
will be seen in this city at he Auditor
ium on Thursday, Sept 5, contains a
number of unusual novel scenes and
original characters. 1t is satirical in
a way and yet it pictures everyday
life as seen by those who have studied
human nature. One of its most inter
esting characters, aside from the Sal
vation Army lassie, is shown in the
Pell street scene. This characteriza-
tion is Betty, a poor tenement yaif,
and the contrast between her and the
sweet young Salvation Army girl, as
they stand side by side, is most start
ling. Betty appears in a ragged cos
tune, red face and bleary eyes. The
character is portrayed by Miss Vir-
ginia Ross, and is considered one of
the most artistic performances in the
play, although she is on the stage but
a short time. In the succeeding act
Miss Ross displays her versatility by
playing a bright handsome young
American girl.

The Editor OF the Tribune is going to
move to Missouri where there are more
Democrats. The result of this election
has demonstrated pretty clearly to us
that Mills county with its abominably
big Republican majority is no place
for Democrat. As long Us our Re-
publican friends we're generous enough
to allow the Democrats to get county
office or two occasionally we were will
ing to stay but now that they have
seen fit to act the hog and take every
thing, we are going to move out. Not
just over in the edge, but down in sure
enough Missouri in Sullivan county,
where they don't have any thing but
democrats and she'll bark hickory nuts.
We could breathe freer down there
than we can in an atmosphere where
they have 500 republican majority ard
no hope of any immediate change
Yes, We want to be in Missouri

The Old Continental" is the name
OF a new publication recently founded
in Des Mosnes. 1t is the organ of the
Iowa society of the Sons of the Ameri-
can Revolution. That is an organiza
ton constituted OF direct descendants
OF soldiers of the American Revolution.
The little paper just founded is edited
by Capt. e. d. Hadley, secretary of the
Iowa society. 1t will be helpful and
beneficial in building up the society in
Nova. The objects of the Sons of the
American Revolution are to perpetuate
the memory of the men who won our
national independence, to unite and
promote fellowship among their de-
scendants, to inspire thepublic with a
more profound reverence for the gov
eminent founded by our fathers and to
encourage historical research in Revo-
lutionary matters. Those eligible
should communicate with secretary
Hadley.

There are entire communities OF pol
son proof people who partakc of doses
OF white arsenic with as much zest as
the average person partakes of meal.
Chief among these singularly gifted
people ate the Syrian and Corinthian
shepherds who lnhabit the districts of
l.amprctht. Salzburg, IIartberg. Leo
ben. Obclzeirung and the Exzgebirge
mountains. The sturdy mountainecrs
consider that arsenic improves their
wind for chamois climbing.
Some years ago DIR. Knapp put two
OF these men through their PAGES be-
fore iae German Society of Physicians
assembled at Gratz. The one ate six
GRATIS OF white arsenic, or enough to
kill three men. without experiencing
the siightcs; Inconvenience The other
partoOk OF four grains OF yellow arse
mic, or orpiment, with equal impunity.
II was explained that. seeing the good
effect Of the drug upon the coats and
condition OF their fiocks. many OF these
shepherds start the practice under the
impression that taken In moderation II
Is good for human beings also.
Usually started with a small weekly
dose spread upon bread and butter. the
embryo arsenic eater has to undergo a
very severe test of his devotion to the
drug. Violent sickness and burning
pains accompany its first use, and the
drug speedily asserts its fatal power
over its devotee.
Any attempt TO leave or the drug Is
generally fatal. The women Of these
arsenic eating districts are famous for
their beautiful compilations and luxuri-
ant tresses,

We suppose it may be generally re-
garded that in the close counties a
more strenuous campaign is waged be-
cause of the local tickets. Thus we
find that Montgomery and Cass had
the biggest per cent Of loss in the dist
rict.
Shelby came nearer getting ont its
full vote than any other county in the
district, and the republicans were able
to little more than hold their own in
that hard fought comfy.
Audubon county shows the best per
cent of gain in the district. 1t didn't
gain as many votes as Pottawattamie
or Harrison, but it hadn't so many vot-
ers to draw from. Its good gain was
not over a poor majority last year, for
last year it had the largest republican
majority it had ever had up to that
date. Its republican majority has
been steadily increasing for four years.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

President Roosevelt has issued his
proclamation fixing Thursday, Novem
Der %, as day Of national thanksgiv-
ing. 1t follows:
A Proclamation The season is nigh
when, according to the time-hallowed
custom of our people, the president ap-
points day as the especial occasion
for praise and thanksgiving to God.
This Thanksgiving finds the people
still bowed with sorrow for the death OF
great and good president. We mourn
President Mckinley because we so
loved and honored him; and the manner
of his death should awaken in the
breasts of our people keen anxiety
for the country, and at the same time a
resolute purpose not to be driven by
any calamity from the path of strong,
orderly, popular liberty which as a ma.
ton We have thus far safely trodden.
Yet in spite Of this great disaster, il
is nevertheless true that no people on
earth have such abundant cause fol
thanksgiving as We have. The past
year in particular has been one of peace
and plenty. We have prospered il
things material and have beer able I,
work for our own uplifting in things in
tellectual and spiritual. Let us re
member that as much as has been givei
us, much will be expected from us; ant
that true homage comes from the hear
as we'll as from the lips and shows II
self in deeds. We can best prove on
thankfulness to the Almighty by tn
way in which on this earth and at thi
time each of us does his duty to hi
fellow men.
| Now, therefore, /, Theodore Roose
welt, president of the United States, d,
hereby designate as day of genera
thanksgiving, Thursday, the 2sth q
this present November, and do recon
mend that throughout the land the pee
pie cease from their wonted occups
tions, and at their several homes an
places Of worship thank the Giver of a
good for the countless blessings of on
national life.

L is now claimed that Thomas Jeffer-

tanned the negro, Benz Banneker, the
noted astronomer and mathematician
both at the white house and at Month
cello. 1t is also we'll known that Lin
coin entertained Fred Douglas, the
negro orator, at the white house. It
seems many of the southern people
have over reached the truth when they
claim President Roosevelt's entertain
ment of BROKER It. Washington was
an innovation. The terrible storm of
protests it aroused in the south leads
one to wonder If there is worse con-
dition for the south hidden away in the
future. Is an irrepressible conflict be-

sarah Bernhardt was once playing at
Marseilles In a spectacular play In
which she made her entree accompa-
MED by six Turkish slaves. A line on
the programme announced that these
six Turks would accompany Nine.
Bernhardt. but when the time came for
them to go on one of the youngsters
had disappeared. Sarah mustered the
five In order and made her entrance
with grand flourish. The house was
crowded. but not hand clap greeted
her as she appeared. Then still, small
voice In the gallery murmured some
thing In an indignant tone. Fifty
voices Immediately took up the strain.
and In ten seconds more the whole
house was shouting the same phrase.
Bernhardt strained every nerve to
catch what they were complaining
about. She knew the phrase began
with "Manque." but the rest of 1t was
lost I'm the general hubbub. For full
minute the tumuit continued. Then
Sarah. muttering things below her
breath, rushed like a fury down to the
footiights. In the front row the ac-
tress had spotted one man who was not
taking part In the hullabaloo. Pointing
at him. the actress exclaimed sternly:
You seem to be the only sensible per-
son In the house. Tell me what on
earth they are kicking up this row
forY'
The man rose, bowed to the actress
and remarked in very bad American
French, Madame. you are shy one

Upton, the county seat of Cedar
county, is an example of a town that.
by its continual contentious within IT.
self, continually damages itself. The
local scrapping of Atlantic is not a be-
ginning beside the continual fights at
Upton. The combats the Des Moines
papers occasionally have and the big
fight over locating the court house
and the score of other questions that
have stirred the city at the forks OF
the Raccoon from center to suburb
have made of Des Moines a TRANQUIL
place as compared with the continual
tempest in tes pot at Upton. The
latest result of local fights at Upton is
the loss to their town of the head
offices Of the Modern Brotherhood OF
America, fraternal insurance order
that has had remarkable growth and
had good prospects for permanency.
1t was founded at Upton five years age
and was differed principally by Upton
men but as it spread into other states
the authority was scattered. Then an
old local fight eliminated between the
president and secretary. both Upton
men, and nearly disrupted the order.
To get away from the muss the order
takes its head offices to Mason City and
Upton looses an institution that was
becoming a subject of pride to the
citizens and source of profit to the
town and community. Now some Of
the citizens are bestirring themselve,
