A Loss TO IOWA.
TT. ID. Healy in ct. Dodge Messenger.
In Mn. Duncombe's death Iowa has
suffered the loss of one of its most
prominent and public spirited citizens.
His life and deeds will ever be recalled
as intimately connected With the
growth of northwestern Iowa. Gifted
with faculties and With physical and in
tellectual strength beyond most men. he
Won and maintained from his youth 4
justly-earned fame as a political leader
and lawyer. AS he was always identified
with the minority party in the state,
the seat in the United States senate
which he would have honored was not
10 be his. In his profession he stood in
the front rank. He secured this place
by no cunning or intellectual sharpness.
II was laborious study and broadness
OF vision that brought his successes. In
the court room he never struck an UNI
fair blow: he never profted by an act OF
doubtful propriety. His conscience new
er permitted evil practices. tho such
practices We're used against him. His
tongue was clean of suggestivs speech.
To younger members of the bar he was
and kind. ] valued his
and counsel in his life. and
shall cherish his memory as the fairest
lawyer l have known.

day was not very favorable. About
twelve O'Clock nice dinner was
served to which all did justice.

basket we'll filled and those that

we'll filed also. The young men
anticipated having a nice ball
game at noon, but as they got fair
ly started, it began to rain, and
they had to find shelter in the
school house, where they had a
good time at noon, after which the
teacher, Mr.. Chas. w. Schaal,
took up school. The scholars spoke
their declamations, and dialogues,
and sang their songs. They in
tended to close the school in the
afternoon, but several of the older

having an entertainment in the
evening. They returned in the
evening, and very enjoyable pro-

Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1902-08-23

There is a rumOr aAOat in political
circles that at their coming county
convention the Republicans will find
it necessary to choose new chairman
of their county committee, it being
understood that Postmaster George j.
Kispert will decline reelection. He
has reached this determination, it is
said, because it is in conflict with civil
service rules and the postal regula-
tions for government officials to be ac-
tive in the management of political
