GRAND JURY CLEARS DUBUQUE.
Proprietors Of Bawdy Houses Flee for
Fear Of Impending indictments.

Dubuque, Oct 20.-For the first time
in three years the city o Dubuque is
virtually free from houses of i'll repute.
Sixth street. which has become famous
as the red light district, the Mecca
for the disreputable element of the city.
has been the quietest tharoughfare in
the city the past three nigats.
All this change has been brought
about by reason of the grand jury's
investigation of moral conditions in
Dubuque. The tip was given out Friday
that the grand jury would return in
dictments against the keepers of the
Sixth street resorts, and several of
them have left the city. A majority of
the women left town early Friday
morning. while others are leaving on
almost every train.
More than fifty frequenters of these
resorts We're summoned 10 appear be-
fore the grand jury during the week
that II is the general opin on that every
keeper of disreputable house in the
city will be indicted
There is even talk that Mayor Bogg
may be indicted, although this is i'm
probable. as he testified before the
grand jury that he was not aware of
the existence of disreputable houses In
the city. As many keepers OF these re-
sorts are out of the city, should in
dictments be returned against them
they would probably remain away for
some time. A bar is conducted in con-
nection with all Of the Sixth street re-
sorts, and drinks are still served, but
there is no evidence of life in the rear
of the establishments.

IOWA FOOTBALL
The GrinneJl View of the Situation
Preparations for the Game With S.
U. /. saturday-sisnifisance of the
Outcome.

Special to Times Republican,
1;rinnell. Oct. 21.--The football stu
alton in Iowa has taken on new turn
since last Saturdays games, and every
school in the big four. and here Simp-
son must not be left out of the reck-
oning. seems to have q fighting chance
for football supremacy this fall. Had
Drake not succumbed to Iowa it would
seem that the Christians with their
heavy team would have attained their
ranking of last fall, but Drake is never
weaker teams in the state could win
from her, but IL in proper condition
that institution with her abundant ma
terial should outclass any Iowa
eleven.
With Saturdays game Iowa has ev-
erything to win, or lose. II Grinnell
will triumph over the Old Gold, claims
for the championship of the state Will
be in a snarl. unless the Scarlet and
Black defeats a legitimate number of
the other schools. which is hardly likely
considering a new team and one which
is badly out weighed by Drake and
Ames and even Iowa.
While comparative scores in football
furnish no criterion as TO raiative merit.
still they are interesting. The scores
of Grinnell, the State University and
Ames with the Coe team. and consid-
ering time played, would place Grin
nell in the lead And certainly the
scores and time played of Grinneil,
Ames and the University with Min
nesota make an interesting puzzle, diff
ficult to unravel. The Drake and Grin
nell scores with Missouri seem to be
slightly in brakes favor, altho Grin
nell was seriously handicapped in play
ing four scrubs turnout the last half.
Again, Missouri came within an ace OF
registering a score on the Drake eleven.
Simpsons game with the Columbia men
will be watched turnout the state as
that team has had practically no real
test as to it's defense.
Grinnell students are preparing for
the game Saturday. Monday evening
mass meeting of the men was held
and the young women are equally en-
thusiastic. A royal mass meeting will
be held either Thursday or Friday. Th=
visitors will be treated with all the
courtesy for which Grinnell students
are noted.
Monday evenings work on the grid
iron was perhaps the best OF the sea-
son. The scrimmages We're fierce, the
good and the defense was
fair The rushes of the backs seemed
to daze the scrubs and a touchdown
was scored in four minutes. If the
team will do such work Saturday the
University team will be given good
game.

THE CAMPAIGN WORK,

Des Moines, Oct. 31.--Republican
speakers are now actively at work in
every part of the state, and the re-
uorts that have been received from
meetings so far this week indicate that
greater interest is being aroused than
heretofore. 1t Is useless TO disguise the
fact that considerable apathy prevails
this year, but nevertheless the cam
paign speakers are having much better
meetings than might be expected under
the circumstances. Governor Gummins
has had excellent meetings SO far and
every one appears to be better than Its
predecessor.
Secretary Shaw Will open the cam
paign in Muscatine on Friday evening.
The state committee was greatly dis
appointed by the news that Mr.. Shaw
would only be able to make five
speeches In Iowa. Instead Of being
here all next week, he will only be able
to be In the state one day. This is due
to the fact that his presence is urgent
ly requested In Boston to address an
immense meeting in fremont Temple
on Thursday night, Oct. 20. However,
he will make three speeches on Friday
and Saturday of this week and two
speeches next Monday, one in the
afternoon and one In the evening.
The principal work to be done from
this time on is to get out the vote.
Campaign orators are deyoting much

Special to Times Republican.

largely to the soda fountain habit was
stated at the convention of the Iowa
State w. c. L. u. by Mrs Ida B. Wise,
corresponding secretary of the state
union. The mixed drinks served at the
drug store bars, she said, paved the
way for liking alcohol to get a hold
upon women. The wave Of reform has
thoroughly permeated the convention.
Among the co-called evils against
which the women have raised their
voices are Sunday ball games, sun
day postoffice, fermented wine at COM
munion and child labor. They have de-
manded the unseating of Senator Reed
Smoot and the establishment of equal
