MAKES AN ADMISSION
Mrs. Richards Gives Evidence Dam
aging to Husband.

Indianola, Ia, Sept. 26.-The state
rested in the Richards case at 1920
yesterday afternoon. Immediately
after a short recess the raking Of de-
Tense testimony was begun, and made
things look little brighter for the
defendant until the last question ask
ed by Mr.. Hayes of Mrs. Richards
brought the reply that when she
awakened her husband on the night
Of New Years at Z o'clock it was not
dark yet. Defense was trying TO
show that Richards was at home be-
tween the hours of 6 and z on that
night, thus proving an alibi as to rls
having had conference with Baird
at the latter's house at that time in
the evening. This was the most SEN
sational testimony Of the day, ana
coming just at the hour Of evening
adjournment, as the shadows were
creeping through the court room,
seemed to cast corresponding
gloom over the face of w. A. Rich
ards. The states attorneys are jubi-
liant, for as it was dark at o'clock,
they say Richards was called in time
for the conferece of which Baird told.
Before the fateful admission OF
Mrs. Richards, the defense had in
troduced good testimony as to Rich
ards character, and as to the bad
character of some of the states wit
nesses. It had also introduced testi-
mony to show that there had been
other suspicion characters in the
town of Hamilton on the night Of the
robbery. The state claims that It
will disproye all this, and make a
clear case against Richards. M

CAMPAIGN IS OPENED
Governor Cummins Delivered q
Powerful Speech.

Des Moines, Sept. 2s.--Governor A.
B. Cummins opened the Iowa republic
can campaign here Saturday night be-
fore 1000 people in the Auditorium.
The meeting was under the auspices
Of the Polk County Republican Club,
the president of which, Col. A. S.
Shaw, presided.
Governor Cummins said that he
hoped the outcome of the election
this fall would demonstrate to the ma
ton that there are 100000 more men
in Iowa who believe in the principle
of protection than believe IN free
trade, who believe the republican way
of dealing with trust evils is better
than the democratic way, and who be-
heve that Theodore Roosevelt repre-
sents the highest type of American
citizenship, than believes he does not.
The governor said that since the
democratic platform did not mention
state affairs he would pass the state
issues until later speech and devote
his entire time to the defense Of the
principle of protection as opposed to
the doctrine Of tariff for revenue only
which he defined as free trade.
The fact that the platform adopted
by the two parties in this state this
year are dramatically opposed in re.
gard to the tariff question made it
pretty easy for the governor to SUBJ
ordinate the iowa idea" to the pro-
tective idea and at the same time to
protest that the republican platform
this year means the same as it did
last year, although the shelter
plank" has been omitted.
In brief, the governor took the po-
sition that the republican platform
represents the republican idea OF
protection, while the democratic
platform is essentially for free trade,
and with this plain diversion between
the two utterances he said that no
republican could afford to vote the
democratic ticket without doing vio-
lence to all the basic principles of re-
publicanism.
He predicted that reciprocity, in
trade arrangement and agreement,
will become the most considered of
all public questions within the next
quarter of century. [Governor Cum
Minis address will be found in full in
another part of the Herald to-day.l

from his. own earnings, he entered
into business in a general store at
Springyille, Lynn county, Iowa. He
remained at that place some years,
during which an extensive trade in
live stock, coal, grain and merchan-
disc was carried on He served
there as city clerk and secretary or
the independent school district for
three terms each. He was married
there in 1879 to Miss S. Josepha Rob-
erts. Disposing of his business in
terests he came back to Oskaloosa In
1885 and took charge of theA abstract
books of Cowan C Hambleton and
has been associated since that time
with them, except for three years
when he was in Des Moines where he
still has business interests. He is
now successor to his fathers inter
ests in the firm. He owns a 240-acre
farm in this county and has one in
Monroe county. He has been for ten
years one of the trustees of Penn col
lege, also trustee Of the endowment
fund of that institution, as we'll as
trustee of the Wells fund and Iowa Y.
M. of Friends. He has always been
a staunch republican, being connect
ed on his fathers side with the SEN
ator Hanna family and on his moth
er's side a direct descendant Of Col.
onel Heston Of the Revolutionary
war, afterwards Judge of the Superior
Court of Philadelphia. He has been
an efficient committeeman of the
ward for the party for several years.
Has represented the county as a del
egate to state conventions several
times, and served very acceptably
for one term as member Of the Board
of Supervisors. He appears now be-
fore the voters Of Mahaska county as
a candidate for the important Office
of Representative, for which place it
is conceded on all sides he is espe-
cially qualified.

PUSHING WORK ALON
Iowa Central Improvements DO ND
Stop For Sunday.

The concrete gang at work build
ing the cement curbing for the new
platform at the Iowa Central station
worked all day Sunday In the effort
to hurry the task through.
The Improvement will be very
great and much appreciated by the
public in general and by the en-
ployes Of the station in particular.
The main passenger track will be the
one that is just west of the line for
merly used. This will necessitate
numerous changes being made in the
several parts of the yard and a large
force of men is to be placed at work
Immediately under the direct super
vision of Roadmaster w. M. Terry,
who is to hurry the work along. All
of the north yard tracks are to be
altered and changed and many
changes will be made in the south
yards. Several weeks work will be
required to complete the job as it has
now been planned and more work
may be added as the occasion re-
quires. If it is found that the yard
track scale cannot be placed in the
south yard, this improvement will be
given another place, and this will
mean the changing Of some of the
work as now planned. The revision
of the Oskaloosa yards has beeu
necessary and has been planned for
some time, but this is the first oppor-
tunity that has been given for doing
the work that has been laid out.
The new platform will be good
one. All of the paving that is now
in use is to be taken out and all new
brick will be used in the building of
the one that is to go in. ....
The passengers and the employees
attending the station have to put up
with more or less inconvenience for
a few days, or until the new platform
can be completed. ..
There may be an extension of the
train shed covering and sheltering
the platform but this improvement
has not yet been determined upon.

When the future OF Penn college
hung in the balance and the Iowa
Friends at their recent meeting in
this city were uncertain as to which
course to pursue in order to lift the
school out of the $4,000 debt, Albert
f. N. Hambleton arose and agreed to
pay $4,000, or one-tenth of the whole
amount. That is the kind Of a
whole-souled, public-spirited and lib
eral town builder that the republi-
cans of Mahaska county have chosen
as candidate to represent them in
the legislature this winter,--and just
the kind Of fellow that the people OF
the community should honor by elect
ing to the Office to which he aspires.
Albert f. N. Hambleton was born
at Forest Home, Poweshiek county,
Iowa, Sept. 4,1S57, his father, the late
Levi Hambleton, having located and
plated that village in the then forest.
His early life was spent in the vii
lage and on the farm, during the win
ter attending school, where slab
benches were the best school furni-
ture afforded. His summer occupa-
ton was driving six yoke of oxen to
the breaking plow and later hauling
coal with a mule team from Evans
mine to Grinnell. He removed with
his parents in 1871 to Oskaloosa, his
father engaging in the mercantile
business. Attending the public
schools, he entered the high school
during the administration Of ]. F..
Everett and entered Penn colleges
first Freshman class. During his
sophomore year, on account Of the
loss by fire of his fathers store at
the old "Faxon" corner and other re-
verses, he abandoned his college
course and at the age Of Is took
charge as a book-keeper Of his faith
er's books in the store. In 1S78,with
