No HARMONY
WALT BUTLER AND H. C. EVANS
HAVE WAR OF WORDS AT
VALLEY JUNCTION.

Des Moines ,Oct.30-The two demo
ocraiic candidates for. representative
from Polk county openly clashed at
the democratic rally held at Valley
Junction and the brand of harmony
which the party has been so diligently
casting abroad over the state this year
was smashed to smithereens and the
contents of the jug scattered over the
floor of the speaking hall.
The meeting held at Valley Junction
had been advertised as rally of q
reunited democracy. The speakers
first announced by the committee We're
C. O. Holley and I'll. c. Evans. Both
are from Des Moines and Mr.. Evans
is candidate for member of the legis-
lature. Walt H. Butler is the second
candidate of the democrats for the leg
islature from Polk county. He is traN-
cling auditor for life insurance COM
pany at Minneapolis. but makes his
home still in Des Moines. He returned
to this city a few days ago to remain
until after election. Though not ON
the speaking program he was invited
to attend the Valley junction rally.
and it was the acceptance OF this in
vitation which resulted in the smash

Mr. Evans was the first speaker of
the evening, and Mr.. Butler with the
balance of his auditors enjoyed his
sallies at the republican party and
against republican principles on the
question of tariff and currency, but
there came a fatal moment when the
junior candidate launched out into
abuse of life insurance companies of
Des Moines, and then his associate on
the ticket flared up and when he had
an opportunity to speak to the assem-
blage proceeded to read Mr.. Evans a
telling lecture in which the insurance
companies We're ably defended and in
which he declared emphatically time
and time again that though much had
been made of the fact that former and
present state officers had been iden-
titled with some of the companies il
had not been shown that any deposition
| or investor had ever lost a cent in amy
of them.
Hardly had the audience who seem
ed in sympathy with MIR. Evans, finish
ed applauding his utterances. than Mr.

minutes he poured hot shot into his

knell of the fake stories which the par

ent officials and gain a little partisan

FORMER BURLINGTON DIVISION
SUPERINTENDENT MAY GO
TO RIVAL ROAD.
\ PERSISTENT RUMOR
Word to That Effect Comes From Mus.
catine, and Though Not Officially
Confirmed, is From Good Authority
-Dusgan Has Splendid Record.

Muscatine, Oct. 30.-(SpeciaD That
j. II. Duggan, formerly superintendent
of the Burlington division of the Chi
to be superintendent of the southwest
division of the Rock Island is the effect
OF rumor which, though it cannot be
officially verified, is circulated here on
excellent authority today. Mr.. Duggan
about one month ago, resigned from
the service of the Burlington after a
quarter OF century's almost contin-
ual work in various capacities and his
acquisition by the Rock Island will
bring to that road one of the best ex-
perienced and thoroughly able railroad
men in the western country.
To Get Good Berth.
The southwest division of the Rock
Island, as it is known all along the
line, is the one running from Chicago
to Kansas City and farther south.
Whether Mr.. Duggan is to be general
superintendent with all this territory
in charge or is to succeed Superinten-
dent Vanderslice of Trenton, Mo-, as
superintendent of what is known as the
Missouri division of the Rock Island, is
not known, but the general impression
is that the former Burlington man is
to get a good berth with the rival COM
pany.
A Splendid Record.
John H. Duggan has been with the
Burlington almost all his life and he is
truly a practical railroad man of the
ideal type His father was a railroad
man before him but the son has risen
to much higher planes than his parent
He was for many years superintendent
of the old west Iowa division. extend
ing from Charlton to the Missouri riv
er, but removed to Burlington when
the Iowa lines were made three diyis
ions. He then took charge of the Bur
lington division, extending from Bur
lington to Ottumwa holding that place
until his resignation from the service
of the Burlington on October /.
Mr.. Duggan is well known in Ottum
wa, especially among railroad men
His long connection with the Burling
ton made him acquainted with railroad
men all over the west and among then
he is known as one of the best rail
way superintendent in the business
| His recent resignation was cause fol
much surprise but if the rumor to the
| effect that he is to go to the Rock Is
| land is true his action is explained
! Nothing can be learned at the loca
| offices regarding such change OF
Mr. Duggan's part.
