WHO Is THE AUTHOR,
Curiosity Excited by the Anonymous
Novel, "Despotism and Democracy"
q Story of WashinKton Life.

Publishing book anonymously is a
perennial method of arousing curiosity and
increasing its sale. But there is probably
more than this behind the anonymity of the
novel of Washington life and politics, "Des-
potism and Democracy" which Mcclure,
Phillips & Co. have just brought out. The
book gives such a frank and daring picture
of the methods used by the great national
bosses" In making and breaking the lives

POSTMASTER TO RESIGN.
w. L. Roach, of Muscatine, Gives Up
His Position.

Muscatine. Jan. 13.--W. l.. Roach, q
prominent Second district republican,
has made known his intention OF re-
signing the Muscatine postmastershlp
on account of pressing business lntes-
ests, and within an hour after his M.
tentions were known, petitions We're
being circulated for rival candidates
for the place. Before night almost
every man in the business district mad
been approached by both sides, usu-
ally one of the petitions was signed.
Not an intimation had reached the
public until this forenoon that Mr.
Roach contemplated this move. Hard
Is was the word out till friends or w.
d. Burk, prominent attorney. were
pushing his claims. A few minutes
after friends of Col. John III. Monroe
were actively canvassing for signers.
During the afternoon Col. Monroe is
sued a statement to the public thru
the press saying that he Withdrew SIX
years ago when Roach was appointed
with the understanding he was to be
supported If Roach resigned. Colonel
Monroe was candidate for congress-
in 1892. Burk is a close political friend
of Mr.. Roach. Petitions were started
to Washington tonight supplemented
with numerous kilograms to Congress
man Rumple, now in Chicago, being
treated for cancer, and to the Iowa
delegation. Burk being first in the
field and securing numerous signatures
has apparently put him in the lead.

1t is quite probable that this arrange
ment will be permanent. 1t Is what mas
long been aimed at. and the. fact tllat
the improvements at the roundiouse
that the idea was never given up, nave
gone on without interruption. Allho
the work is not yet finished. the mouse
is in very good shape for handling the
engines, and hardly looks like lis
former self. The heightened STAINS
makes the place seem twice as large as
formerly. The heating plant is IN place
and the workmen are leveling UP the
floor with cinders preparatory TO laying
the board floor. The new clndef PIT
which is built to accommodate two en-
gines at time, is nearly finished. Al
tho the round house has taken on an
appearance of completion and order al
ter the tearing up that has been In pro-
eress for six months. Even the store
room has just taken in larger amount
of material than has ever been IN the
house before. The coal chutes nave
been extended and every thing mas peen
placed on a larger scale than peiofe.

THE LEoNlpAs CASE.
JUDGE House Decides It Is Triable in
District Court.

JUDGE House Decides 1t Is TriabIe in
District Court.
Special to Times-Republican.
Davenport, Jan. 13.--Judge A. j.
House, who, several weeks ago, took
under advisement the motions in the
cases of Ellsworth and Christopher Lee
onidas. whose estates are suing the Di-
arnond 10 line thru P. w. McManus. adj
ministrator, has filed his decision in the
matter.
He has overruled the motion TO sep
arate the actions between the Diamond
10 Company and Mate Dan Breen, and
therefore both cases will be tried here
before the district court, and not at Du-
budue or before the federal court, as
was desired by the defendants.
The Diamond 10 Company and Mate
Dan Breen will therefore be compelled
to come here to defend the actions in
damages, brought against them by the
administrator of the estates of the two
men killed last July on the lower deck
of the steamer Dubuque by Dan Breen
as mate. Cooper, Let's & MCGEE are
attorneys for the administrator.
The plaintiffs in the suit against
the Diamond 10 line of steamers and
Dan Breen, the mate of the Dubuque
have filed substituted petition, In
which they ask for $4,000 compensa-
tory damages and $4,000 exemplary
damages.
The petition states that Dan Breen
while acting in the capacity of mate
of the steamer Dubuque on which the
two Leonidas took passage, on July 10,
1902, insulted, abused and otherwise i'll
treated them eand Immediately after
wards shot them with a gun, both dying
from the effects of the same. The:peti-
ton further states that these acts were

BRITT AND GARNER ARE RIVALS

Special to Times Republican.
test in this county, which had been
dropped for five years, has again been
renewed, and now Garner has filed a
petition with the board Of supervisors
asking for a relocation of the court
house at Garner. instead of at Concord,
the present county seat.
Five years ago Britt asked that the
matter be submitted TO the people for
vote, but this would not be allowed by
Garner, fearing that the west side of
the county would outnumber them in
votes and cause RELOCATION at Britt.
1t will be remembered that in order to
strengthen their hold In the western
and northern part of the county, Gar
ner people went to work and built
railroad, or what might be properly
called an excuse for one, from Garner
thru Crystal Lake. and terminating at
Wooden, which was later extended to
Titonka in kossuth county. This was
Ia successful project, inasmuch as 1t
had a favorable influence on the people
in that particular vicinity. The railroad
won votes for Garner, or would have II
the court house relocation would have
been submitted to the people. which 1t
of course was not In the meantime
Garner went to work and built a court
house building, and little later incor-
porated Concord into Garner, feeling
sure that this would bring the desired
end. Britt served an injunction pre-
venting Garner from occupying this
new building as court house, and it
was carried to the supreme court OF
Iowa, in which 1t was decided that the
moving of the court house could only
be done by vote Of the people.
A matter Of this kind can be brought
up but once in every five years, and
the time having expired it is again up
to the people of Hancock county. Britt
has raised $4,000 with which to build
a court house and will give it to the
county free of charge II the people will
designate Britt as the future county
seat.
1t is conceded that the only way to
re-locate the county seat Ia by vote
OF the people, and also that petition
before the people by Garner can be
beaten by remonstrarce by Britt, and
the matter put off for another five
years. Developments within the next
two months will determine the matter
of a vote. q
