Davenport, Sept. 22.-Because of the
irregularity in the arrival of their pay
checks, 400 men employed in the Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad
shops in this city walked out Saturday
| afternoon. The men worked during the
forenoon, but refused to return to work
after the noon hour. The movement
among the men was general and in
Guided everybody from the engine wipers
| to the skilled mechanics. The strike, if
such it may be termed was not insti-
gated by any union, but was mutually
agreed upon by the men working at the
shops as the result Of q common COM
plant.
The men are not asking for higher
wages. but want to know when their
Pay checks are coming. One OF the
!! workmen said to a reporter yesterday
afternoon: I'VE want regular pay
day. AS it is at present, we do not
know when our pay checks will arrive
to the grocer or the butcher we can not
give definite promise as to when we
can pay. We formerly received our
pay checks OH the 18th Of the month or
probably day later, but now they
come at any time from the 10th to the
goth. If the pay We're only one day
late we would not mind it so much.
But as it is now we do not get paid
sometimes until after the men working
in Rock Island. Many of these Rock
Island men live in Davenport and trade
with the same dealers that we trade
with. When they pay their bills and
we have to stand the dealer off 1t means
misunderstanding and trouble. We
have waited four days this month and
Saturday noonswe decided to quit work
in body to show the officials of the
company how we feel in this matter
A representative of the road admitted
to the reporter that the pay checks had
been irregular in coming, but declared
there was no discrimination against the
Davenporters. He believed the matter
would be taken up by the proper par
ties and properly adjusted SO that the
men may return to work without loss
of time. The delay in getting the pay
to the men is attributed to the Chicago
offices and not to Davenport represent
atives of the company The pay car is
a thing of the past and the checks are
row made out in Chicago and sent to
the local offices, from which they are
delivered to the men.
There was time wnen the switch
men in Chicago received their pay in
just such an irregular manner and they
walked out and brought the company
to time The local strikers say they
will stay out until they receive their
pay and assurance that they will have
a regular pay day hereafter.

ELECTION AT EsTHERvlLLE.
Result of the Primaries, Which Were
Held Saturday.


Special to Times Republican,.
Baskerville, Sept. 22.-The returns
from the primary election in this coun-
ty Saturday show the following candi-
dates nominated: Auditor, j. II. Ridley;
recorder. S. Collins; clerk, j. Amund-
son; attorney. n. j. Lee.
The election was a very spirited one
and the forces We're very evenly match
ed in the contest for auditor. Mr.. Rid
ley will bear the distinction Of being
one of the youngest auditors in the
state, being but 26 years old. He is a
very popular young man. thoroughly
competent, and Won out over George
Allen, who has proved a worthy officer
during his eight years service in that
office.
Allen carried this city by forty votes,
Ridley carrying his own ward by one
vote and Armstrong by sixty seven.
This will give him a majority of seven
ty in the county.
The other candidates were reelected,
Mr.. Lee having no opposition for Sec
ond term. Mr.. Collins received large
majority over two other candidates,
which is quite a compliment to wor
thy officer who has served six consecu-
tive terms.
Altho the polls were only open from
2 p. m. to p. m., and a heavy down.
pour of rain continued turnout the day,
a heavy vote was polled. Business was
suspended, practically, and stairways
and doorways We're utilized as pro-
lection from the rain, and as a corall
for the ward heelers.' Altogether it
was a lively battle. Good feeling pre-
walls and the candidates will be elected
in November.

ALLISON MEETS HENDERSON.
Tho Senator Thinks the Speaker Has
Not Been Well Treated.


Dubuque, Sept. 22--Senator Allison
arrived home Friday night and yester-,
day morning was called upon by
Speaker Henderson, when the two men
held a friendly conference In which the
speaker gave his reasons for with
drawing from the congressional race.
They were the same as he had already
given out in his letter and address. The
senator told the speaker that it was a
great mistake as he was assured of
election by his usual majority in IN off
year.
The senator was asked Sunday even
ing as to who would be the nominee at
the approaching convention, to which
he replied that he had no idea, but
whoever the successful candidate might
be he was sure of election without the
least doubt. The senator said that he
thought Colonel Henderson, after all
the faithful work he had done for his
district and for the state deserved
good trha tment and that the fight made
against him by those he believed to be
his friends was extremely unjust and
he felt the injustice deeply.
The speaker left Sunday morning for
Atlantic City. accompanied by his
daughter, Mrs. Pea,slee, of East Du-
buque.

Spence and A. F. Dawson, manager OF

chairlnen and other republican leaders
from each county in the district. Re-
ports from all parts of the district were
of the most encouraging and gratifying
nature, no dissatisfaction, every one
working tremendously for the success
OF the whole ticket, from the highest
office to the lowest. Each of the county
chairmen reported in turn, stating that
the organization in his county was fully
perfected, that effective efforts would
be used to get out the full republican
vote, that the speaking campaign would
not be left to a few rallies here and
there, but that these big meetings
would be supplemented with a large
number of school house meetings, when
neighbor could talk to neighbor and
compare notes as to the prosperity OF
today with the conditions that existed
prior to the passage Of the Dingley tar
in law.
There will be number of rallies in
the district the dates of which will be
lof cfy,c

will be at Manchester on Oct. 4, but

chairman: c. II. Smith.
Tama county-E. G. Penrose, chair

The enthusiasm and the harmony
among the republicans, with their or
ganized plans for the campaign. is a
marked contrast to the apathy among
the democrats in the district Sam
Wright, of Upton, has declined the
nomination which was forced upon him
at the democratic congressional con-
vention and the committee which was
appointed at that time to fill the vacan-
cy has not yet succeeded in inducing
any other man to become the nominee.
1t is possible that there may be a va
cancy on the democratic ticket for this
