which 1t is hoped will be of practical
benefit to the farmers, will be added
and known as the corn exhibit. A de-
partment will be devoted exclusively to
the exhibit of corn tnd an expert will
be secured to judge 1ne same. Other
features are under consideration, and
all in all the fair promises to be bigger

entirely out of debt and under the
management of practical business men,,

make the fair what the people desire 1t

Want LA|E PRIMARY
Petition Circulated in Hardin

MANY FAVOR THE MOVEMENT

Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, Dec. 20.-During the past
two days petition has been circulated
among the leading republicans of this
city asking that the republican county
central committee call the next prim-
airy election not earlier than the first
Saturday in September. The petition
was signed by over hundred mem
bers of the party. but one person de-
clining to endorse the movement.
This is regarded as the sentiment of
the party in this township, which is
the largest in the county. But with the
fling of the petition some decidedly
interesting political gossip developed
and this petition may add zest to the
campaign that precedes the nominal
ton OF a county ticket by the republi-
can party of Hardin. On the one hand
it is maintained that the petition re-
ferred to is q slap at the party organ
ization and that the action is taken to
further the interests of latent candi-
dates who have not intimated their
Intentions of entering the contest for
nomination and desire the time that
late primary will bring in order to or
ganize for the campaign. On the other
hand those in favor of late primary
maintain that this petition is a move
against snap primaries that it is claim
ed are often called in the interests of
early candidates and thus forestall
the ambitions of later aspirants seeking
a feed at the public crib. Another in
teresting rumor is to the effect that a
combination has been entered into that
affects the offices of representative and
sheriff and that the petition referred
to was aimed at the combination in
the hopes of breaking it by deferring
the primary and thus permit of an or
ganization to defeat the alliance re-
garded by some in the shape of a slate.
Whether the petition or the machine
element of the party will win out re-
mains to be seen and may result in a
compromise by which the primary will
be held in midsummer, probably July
or August. 1t was reported here last
evening that a new candidate for sher-
if had entered the field in the person of
WESTMINSTER r. A. Carleton, of this
city. H. +. Granner, of Hubbard, will
seek another term as supervisor and
thus far Is the only candidate ANNOUNCE
ed for the office. The big fight will |
be on sheriff.

IMPORTANT SUIT
Statute Giving Cities Right to Fix
Rates for Water, Gas, Etc, to Be
Attacked on Constitutional Grounds.
;pecial to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Muscatine, Dec. 20.-A suit which
threatens the right Of Iowa cities to
fix rates on gas, electric light and wa
ter has been brought in the United
States circuit court for the southern
district of Iowa by the Citizens Rail-
way and Light Company of this city.
The question is raised directly as to the
validity of the Iowa statute, it being
fourteenth amendment to the constitu-
ton of the United States, inasmuch as
the company would In reality be de-
prived of its property by destroying its
value. The city will fight the case and
carry 1t to the supreme court If neces-
sary. The contract with the company
expired on Oct. s and the city has
passed ordinances reducing the rate on
gas from 50 to SLIPS per 1000 feet and
making similar reduction on gas for
the private consumer. besides reducing
street lighting from s132 per light to s64
for o'clock and STA For all night serv-
ice. This the company attempts to
show practically makes the plant nom
productive of returns on the investment
and thus makes 1t yalueless, thus de-
priving the owners of property valued
at 100000. The case promises to be
one of great interest to the entire state.
1t differs from the Cedar Rapids case
recently decided inasnuch as that was
a decision of the state supreme court
on the validity of the statute under the
Iowa constitution. 1t also differs from
the Ottumwa case, as that was to pre-
vent the mourning of debt beyond the
statutory limitation of per cent of the
taxable value of the property.

TRAER MAN LOST $500.
Expressed Money in Box and Box
Arrived Empty.

Expressed Money in Box and Box
Arrived Empty.
Special to the Times Republican.
Traer, Dec. 20.-Because he failed to
tell the express company what was
contained in box he sent home, f.
Churdimsky viii lose $500. When the
box arrived at Tama, the money was
gone and white paper substituted. The
express company can not be made to
pay.
Churdimsky is monument dealer,
and his story Is that he recently went
to Brooklyn, N. Y, after marble. He
was unable TO get the stock he wanted,
and did not invest the money. The
banks being closed, he says he pur-
chased tin box and placed the cur
rency therein and expressed it to Traer.
He returned on the same train, and on
his arrival here opened the box and
found 1t filled with waste paper instead
of greenbacks. The express company
would probably not be liable, as he did
not ship the box as money. In fact
they maintain there was no money in
the box when 1t started-that some
one must have deceived Mr.. Churdim-
sky by substituting box like his own
but filled with paper instead of green
backs. AT best 1t. is a peculiar affair
turnout.
