Western Electric Company Gets Right

of Way Thru Spencer.
Special to Times Re publican.
Spencer, Nov. 21.-The telephone
question has been the subject of most
general discussion in Spencer for ten
days. The Western Electric Telephone
Company of Mason City has for several
years owned and maintained the long
distance phone thru this city, using the
poles of the local company. 1t is now
rebuilding the line, setting new poles
and stringing copper wire. 1t wishes to
construct the line thru the city entirely
independent of the local company, and
was directed to build along Fourth
street. Some residents on that street
seriously objected to having the line in
front of their places, and it has looked
as tho trouble was imminent. Last
night, however, the residents agreed to
deed the company the right to build
the line along the rear Of their lots, and
the company will accept this PROPOSE
ton. The long distance business of the
Western Electric Company has been
handled by the local company, but the
latter is becoming competitor, and the
Western Electric people do not care to
have it handle their business any long
er. hence the preparations for estab-
fishing an Independent office in this
place. Spencer will be made the prin-
cipal station between Sioux Falls and
Mason City.

A GOOD SAMARITAN.
Being Helped Himself Wishes to Help

The papers were never so filled with
advertisements of remedies that will
cure every known disease, as they are
today; these are invariably accompa-
MED by letters from people, testifying
In the strongest terms to the virtue and
merit of the particular preparation ad-
vertised; but because so much is claim
ed for the medicine, it has come to the
point where most readers regard such
testimonials as pure fakes ana MADE
UP out of whole cloth.
We are glad, however, to vouch for
The reliability of the following from Mr..
William Lichtenwalter, proprietor of
the largest printing house in Canton,
o., regarding the Pyramid Pile Cure
for which nothing Is claimed except
that 1t will cure any and every form OF
piles.
For several months past I have re-
ceived SO many inquiries from sufferers
asking If my testimonial is authentic,
that am inclined to send in bill to
you for postage and stationery.
'It is now two years since was last
troubled, and my rectum is as clear and
clean as any man who never had piles.
altho I suffered with protruding, bleed
years. will not attempt to detail the
agony suffered, being too happy to
say l believe am cured, after two
years of evidence.
What will cure one man will some-
times not cure another; whether it was
the Pyramid Pile Cure that cured me.
can not say; but l have been free from
piles for two years after using your
treatment leave sufferers to draw
their own conclusions.
81 will answer any communication
that sufferer may ask, and will refer
to any business house, bank or manu-
1acturer Of Canton, o., concerning my
identity, among whom have lived for

Cedar Falls. Nov. 21.-Altho Judge

found out that there is something dong
lin this direction in Cedar Falls. 1t has
NOT been announced that there will be
| a change here. 1t is not known that
there will be, but there will be warm
times if there is not, judging from the
r,n,ors in the atmosphere here at pres
ent.
The postoffice positions at Cedar
Falls and Waterloo have entered INTO
more than local circles as it is a well
grounded belief in many quarters Oh Tue
state that the postoffice hight at water
loo was one of the main causes iead-
ing up to the retirement OF Coionei
Henderson from the political arena.
Il. A. Snyder, editor OF the Ceoar
Falls Gazette, is the present servant
Of Uncle Sam at the local postoHlce
The fight waged when he was ap-
nointed was one of the bitterest III
the history of the Office and the road
he has been called upon to travel sinc':
he was appointed has not been strewn
with roses.
Some eight persons are now men
toned as possible candidates for the
position in case there is change me
number includes Mrs. w. A. Dinwiddle,
Miss Nellie Pierce, f. G. Wright, Mar
ion Huffman, S. B. Humbert, w. IL.
Hurd, E. a. Snyder, Charles Boehmier.
All are we'll known and have many
friends who are anxious that they en-
ter the race which none of them have
done openly as yet. Mrs. Dinwiddle
is the widow Of the late Major Din
widdle, military instructor at the State
Normal school She is a popular wom-
an ane identified with the charity and
club work Of the city. Miss Nellie
Pierce is the daughter of DR.. Pierce
deceased, who was q soldier with d
good record. She is prominently fden-
titled with w. r. c. work and VIII
draw support from many old soldiers.
Charles Boehmler. E. A. Snyder and
S. B. Humbert are all old soldiers.
Mr.. Humbert is now a member of the
Iowa Monument Commission Dy reason
of appointment by Governor Cummins.
Mr. Huffman and Mr.. Wright are bust
ness men and w. H. Hurd is the part
ner of the present postmaster in the
newspaper business as publishers of the
Gazette. 1t will be seen that the fight
will be bitter one when it is once
on unless some move is made to check
it from higher authority.
Colonel Henderson used to award the
postoffice to those who had worked
hardest for his political success, fol-
lowing this plan for several years
Shortly before his retirement he issued
what is known here as "his statement
in bankruptcy" in which he gave it
out that the Office would go to the
man receiving the popular vote of tho
people and without regard to the work

support of superannuated ministers.
DR.. Bennett Mitchell, of Sioux City, will
be field agent for the conference during
the year. and under his direction an
effort will be made to incite interest in
this charitable work. Those present at
the meeting were DR.. Bennett Mitchell,
of Sioux City; Rev. ]. j. Gardner, Of
Goldfeld: Rev. H. J. Hastings, Of
Rolfe; Rev. w. f. Gleason, of Farm
hamville; Rev. G. w Pratt, of Fort
Dodge; o. P. Miller, of Rock Rapids;
Edward Fair, of Ireton, and E. A. Nor
let, of Emmetsburg. AT the meeting
the following officers were elected for
the year:
DR.. Mitchell, of Sioux City, presi
dent; Rev. J. J. Gardner, of Goldfield,
secretary; and Rev. G. w. Pratt, of
Fort Dodge, treasurer.

of his political friends. This was tax
en- by many as an ungrateful act on MS
part and failure to meet his persona
obligations for favors shown by MS
friends. 1t lost the Colonel friends
and was one of the chief causes FOR
the dissatisfaction among republicans
here.
Judge Birdsall has issued no state
ment as to what course he would pur-
sue in the matter but it is confidential
ly announced that the office will not be
awarded on petition and that no pc
titions will be considered. This can
neither be confirmed or denied. good
many citizens have said that they will
sign the petition of no candidate until
they learn from Judge Birdsall himself
whether or not petition will be con-
sidered.
The change will be brought about
as quietly as possible If such thing
is possible but if not the patrons de-
a change will see that they
are heard and change seems inc
The candidacy of the two
women for the place will add interest
to the contest at least.
