WABASH IN TIE DITCH.
Three Cars are Piled Up on the Track
Near Belknap.

tFrom Saturdays Daily.l
Yesterday evening about 6:15
O'Clock, three cars of an extra heavy
freight train on the Wabash under
Conductor Bloom, left the track while
running at full speed about two and
one-half miles north of Belknap and as
a result a carload of apples. an oil
tank and the way car are piled in a
heap on the right of way and the track
is torn up for distance of $50 feet.
Was Making Fast Time.
The train which met with the acct
dent was special freight and was run
ming on fast time. ten minutes ahead
of passenger No. 8 which arrives here
in the evening. Suddenly and without
any known cause the three rear cars
left the track and were piled in heap.
The car OF apples is lying squarely
across the track and it will probably
be late this afternoon before the
wreckage can be removed. None OF
the trainmen received any injuries.
The Wabash trains are delayed today
on this account.

IOWA FOR CANNON.
The Rawkeye Delegation VIII Support
Illinois Man, II is Said.

Washington, Nov. 14.-(Special.)-
A Des Mcines dispatch printed here
says a majority of the Iowa delega-
ton will support Cannon, of Illinois,
for speaker and that Congressman La
Icey, Hedge and Cousins have declared
for Cannon. Only Hull and Hepburn
have declared for Babcock openly. II is
rumored that the Cummins men want
Babccck and are trying to influence
the delegation that way because Of
his sentiments, which are well known
to be in favor of tariff revision
The belief in Washington is that
Cannon will win, since he will get the
eastern votes not pledged to eastern
candidates on account of his conserva,
| tive stand on the tariff revision.
The rumor that Director of the Mint
Roberts, who is booming Babcock
through the Des Moines Register.
Leader, is inspired by Roosevelt, is
1 discredited.
The President is taking no part in
the speakership fight
Hepburn is here and will not dis
cuss the situation except to say he is
for Babcock Harold ]. Mahin.

ERROR LOWERED VOTE.
Two District Judges Are Victims of
Misunderstanding.

Owing to misunderstanding of the
judges and clerks of election in four
precincts in Van Buren, county, Judges
+. w. Eichelbarger, of Bloomfield, and
Judge Vermilion, of Centerville, did
not receive the tdll number of votes to
which they were entitled. This ac-
counts for the seeming fact that both
ran behind the ticket in that county.
The Keosauqua Republican explains it
in this way:
Tt will be noticed that the MAORI
ties for the district judges, Sloan, Rob
erts, Vermilion and Eichelberger vary
considerably. This is not actual, how
ever, the total votes On the four judges
not varying to any considerable ex-
tent. In four precincts, Cantril, Che
quest. Home Prairie and Washington
the election boards failed to make cor,
rect entries as to the vote for Vermil.
ion and Eichelberger on the republi,
can ticket and part of the candidates
| for judges on the democratic ticket
| Vermilion was on the ticket for full
| term, also to fill vacancy. On the poll
books there was a set of blank spaces
| for full term judges and a set OF
! spaces for terms Ito fill vacancy" and
in the precincts named Vermilion and
Eichelberger We're not entered on the
full term space, but instead were en-
tered only on g to fill vacancy" space
Of course all the board of supervisors
could do was to canvas the vote as re
turned on the poll books. Had these
errors affected the election of either
! Vermilion OF Eichelberger they would
have been counted on contest, but
as it does not affect their election the
tabulation of votes will be given as
reported on poll books. This shows
how necessary it is for judges and
clerks of election to use the utmost
care in recording the election returns
Following are the majorities for the
candidates as officially canvassed:
Sloan. 615; Roberts. 609; Vermilion
! 513; Eichelberger, 499."

THE PRIMARY QUALITIES OF
GOOD CITIZENSHIP.
Henry Cabot Lodge. in Success

|
Assuming, then, that good citizen
ship necessarily implies service of
some sort to the state, the country, or
public,it must be understood, of course,
that such service may vary widely in
amount or in degree. The man and
woman who have family OF children,
educate them, bring them up honora-
bly, and well, teaching them to love their
country, are good citizens, and deserve
well of the republic. The man who,
in order to care for his family and
give his children a fair start in life,
labors honestly and diligently at his
trade, profession or business, and who
casts his vote at all elections, adds to
the strength as well as to the material
prosperity of the country and thus
fuifils some of the primary and most
important duties OF good citizenship.
Indeed it may be said, in passing, that
he who labors III any way, who has
any intellectual interest, who employs
his leisure for any public end,--even
the man who works purely for selfish
objects,-has one great element of
good citizenship to his credit; for
there is nobody else so detrimental in
country like ours as the mere idler,
the mere seeker for reimbursement,
who passes his time in constant I'M
certainty as to how he shall get rid
of the next day or the next hour OF
that brief life which, however short, in
some cases is,from every point OF view,
too long for him.
4 Rearing a family, casting vote,
leading a decent life and working
honestly for livelihood are however
primary and simple qualities in meri
torious citizenship They are the
foundation stones. no doubt, but good
citizenship, in its true sense, rises
much higher, and demands much more
than these. Here, again, it becomes
necessary to define ones meaning and
get rid of generalities. All men who dc
good work have ideals at which they
: aim, dreams of what they hope to &C
complish, and all. especially those who
succeed most fully, fall far short OF
their ideals, for dissatisfaction usu
ally halts the advance and puts an enc
to achievement But to come short o
ones ideal is not defeat. Not failure
but low aim. is crime The ideal can
not be set too high, and then any prog
ress towards it is VICTORIAN the lift
work is not barren of results. This j!
as true of citizenship as of any othe
great field OF human effort. TIL,
ideal cannot be set too high, provided
; it is comprised by common sense ant
clear reason and does not topple owe
into eccentricity But in order to pos
ess an ideal, which must be at one
!, sane and lofty, it is essential to hav
standard, and that standard must b.
clear and sharply defined not misty o
confused. For example, ii we wish t,
teach our children that loyalty to tn
nation and to the union OF states is
, fundamental quality Of any American
. citizenship worthy to be called good
we must not set up monument to
man. no matter how eminent, who wo
; all his fame in an unsuccessful effor
. to wreck liberty.
