Judge A. Van Wagneen has been
nominated by the Democratic party
for mayor of Sioux City. Judge Van
Wagenen is man of imminent ability
and sterling integrity. He would be a
credit to Sioux City as its mayor, both
as businessman and as public
speaker to represent that fourishing
city. AS district judge he has made
an enyiable reputation on the bench
and as practical business man lawyer
he has been successful. Our only
regret is that the judge is running on
the wrong ticket and for that reason he
will in all probability not be elected.

This afternoon at 2:30 O'Clock the

caught on fire and in three quarters of
an hour it was practically a total

and the flames almost instantly filled
the whole room. The alarm was
quickly sounded but almost from the
first it was apparent that all that could
be done would be to save the adjacent
buildings. The volunteer fire company
as usual worked heroically, and to
their efforts is due the fact that the
fire did not spread and the fine gaso.

We are informed by member of the
