Nevada, Oct. 3o.--The city council OF
Nevada met Monday evening to consider
the petitions for calling a special cleo
tion for the purpose of voting 21s per
cent tax in aid of the Dies Moines, Iowa
Falls & Northern Railway Company.
The council found that The petitions con-
tsined the required number of legal Sig
natures and the election was called for
Nov. II, 1901. The petition provides that
the company shall build and maintain
standard guage steam road from Iowa
Falls to Des Moines thru Nevada, that
a depot shall be established within
three-uuarters of mile Of the court
house and that all regular passenger
trains shall stop here. One-half OF the
tax is to be paid when the road Is COM
pleted and in operation between IOWA
Falls and Nevada and the other half
when the road is finished on to lOes
Moines, the tax to be void II the same is
not done by Dec 81, 1902. Some time
ago a 21s per cent tax was voted to the
Des Moines, Nevada & Eldora Electric

tons, and to avoid any complications
the petition provides that, in the event
CO the d. NJ, I. +. & N. road acquiring
by assignment the interest of the cleo
trio company i'll the tax the present tax
becomes imperative. This prevents the
Iowa Falls company from securing the
tax more than once. The money for the
right-of-way thru Nevada township be-
ing now ready and the tax almost voted,
Nevada is in position to fulfill her
agreement to the letter. The company
telephoned from Iowa Falls that their
representative would be here this week
to close up the details of the agreemnt
between the company and our city.
w. o. johnson. who has the contract
for grading the road thru this part of
the country, has moved his family to
Nevada. He has located site for his
camp near the East Indian bridge. where
the line crosses the Northwestern. and
expects to put a force at work there
this week, as the company wishes to
complete the grading to Nevada before
cold weather arrives.

ATTEMPT TO WRECK BUILDING.
Unknown culprits Attempt to Blow
up Sioux City Block.

Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City. Oct. so:-A dastardly at
tempt to wreck the Purslow block. Pearl
and Sixth streets. WIS barely avested
yesterday by the vigilance of Engineer
Lester Rusk. Soap had been poured into
the boiler thru the safety valve.
A full boiler and a high pressure would
have caused terrific explosion, and
had 1t been left unnoticed a little longer
the big brick building. occupied by
eighty people, would have been
shattered.
No motive has been discovered for the
attempted crime. Neither Mr.. Purslow
nor Mrs. Tappan, who has charge of the
building. know of any reason why any
person or persons should have adopted
this terrible form Of revenge.
The culprits evidently understood the
mechanism of the steam boiler. Soap or
grease in a boiler flied with water and
subjected to high pressure will cause
the severest kind of an explosion. The
bubbling of the soap forms a gas which
is Irresistible. The l?urslow block had
recently been fitted up with new steam
heating plant. and the boiler, while not
large, is solid and substantial. When
Engineer Rusk started the fire in the
morning he noticed that something was
wrong. A careful examination revealed
the soap and the fire was shut of in a
hurry and none too soon.

The petition was sent to Archbishop

COUSINS At WEBSTER CITY.
Fifth District Congressman Enthuscs
Hamilton County Voters.

Special to Times-Republican
Webster City, Oct. S0.-Hon. Robert
G. Cousins, congressman from the Fifth
Iowa district delivered political adj
dress last evening in the opera house in
this city. This address was the opening
of the republican campaign here. Mr..
Cousins national reputation as an ora
tor drew voters of all parties to the OPP
era house. A large crowd was present,
especially from the farming vicinity.
The speech was without a doubt one
of the finest ever heard in Webster City,
both from the viewpoint of arguement-
alton and of oratory. Mr.. Cousins rose
above the plane of the partisan pollti-
clan reaching that of the seemingly Inn
partial historian. Especially this ap-
ply to that part of his address in which
he spoke of the achievements of the re-
publican party as advocate, defender
and enactor of tariff reforms ana man
cfal legislation Impartiality was also
apparent in his reference to the direct
ing power in the late war which treeu
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines
from the tyranny and oppression OF the
Spaniard Mr.. Cousins was particular
ly forcible in his denunciation " the
anarchists. Heeadvocated stricter laws
to regulate them and keep them from
the country. Also stricter laws to pun
ish the carrying out by force OF their
belief. He reached the acme of his ora
tory in his eulogies on Lincoln, Car
field and McKinley-of all our presl-
dents the ones having most at heart the
wants, needs and happiness of Amer
ica's common people. yet We're struck
down by men worse than murderers.
Mr.. Cousins also touched upon state
politics. He replied, in brief way, to
the most prosperous condition of the
masses of the people within the state,
The farmers, tho not harvest
ing the immense crops of last
year, is getting for them higher
prices. He spoke of the enviable condi-
ton of the state, which is out of debt
and has beside about million dollars
in its treasury The credit for this must
surely be given to the republicans,
whose administration of affairs has
been wise and honest.
/ Immense waves of applause swept
over the audience at various times as
| the speaker reached a climax.

The sensible cure to follow is to make

Ida Grove, Oct. 30.-Hon. Robert g.
Cousins spoke to well-tiiled house on
Monday evening. The male quartet and
mandolin club furnished the music. Mr..
Cousins remarks were enthusiastically
received and loudly applauded. His pam
egyric upon the life of Lincoln is spoken
of by all as the most beautiful word pic
ture of character and events ever heard
in Ida Grove. With the chaste elo-
ouence of Samuel Johnson he combines
the pathos and feeling OF Vending in
his Man of Galilee." Such political
speeches as this inspire a true patriot-
ism. higher citizenship, a broader con-
ception of politics and more extended
sphere of true republicanism.
