Four Ground Under Wheels.

Philadelphia, March 11.-Three
men were killed and one other was
injured by train on the Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington railroad in
the southwestern section of the city.
The victims were worllingmen out Of
employment. There were no witnesses
to the accident and the bodies of the
dead men were SO badly mangled as to
render them unacceptable A labor
union card in one mans pocket bore
the name George Slinkman, Balti-
more At midnight the mutilated
trunk of a man was discovered on the
tracks. 1t had evidently been ground
under the engine wheels and carried
several miles. 1t was impossible for
the police to determine whether it was
portion of a fourth victim or whether
the mutilated section was part of a
body previously discovered.

Publicity in City Affairs

At the council meeting on Monday
evening committee was appointed to
investigate the cost and advisability of
publishing the council proceedings. The
committee is composed OF Johnson and
McGrin. They will take steps to as
certain what other cities are doing and
to find out the probable cost.
A large proportion of the taxes paid
by residents of Denison is expended by
our city government. The people have
a right to know when and how and
where that money is expended. The
people cannot attend the council meet
ings, and the presence of large num-
Der of them would be nuisance if they
did. AS it is council meetings are at
tended only by those who have some ak
to grind. The council acts, spends
large sums of money and no one is the
wiser. We have no criticism to offer
as to the city expenses, but we believe
the people as whole would be much
better Satisfied if they knew what was
going on in the council chamber. The
Denison papers have made q standing
offer to the council to publish the pro-
ceedings at a cost barely sufficient to
pay for the type-setting and the other
labor evolved. The papers do not
feel willing to perform this labor at
their own expense nor should they be
expected to. The people are entitled
to know in as public manner as posi-
BILE, all the facts concerning the gov
eminent of the city. Denison is one of
the few towns where the proceedings
are not published.
We believe in the long run it would
be matter of public economy and 1t
certainly is q matter of public infor-
nation to which the people are entitled.

majorities. The vote was Nicholson
lis, Romans 103, Mrs. Ley 81, Mrs.
Wescott Is with few scattering votes
Although the vote was light it
was above the average at school cleo
ton. The women's ticket, sprung on
Monday afternoon did not receive as
large following as might have been
expected. Had the matter of placing
a woman on the board been canvassed
by the people in advance it is very pos
sible that the men would have grace
fully yielded to them. AS it was, few
took the second ticket seriously as the
vote plainly shows. 1t is felt that an
injustice was done the ladies in bring
ing forward their names at the eleventh
hour. Either one or both of them
would make worthy members of the
school board and under other circum-
SUduCcS, anu 1du uOU UuC pCOPlC OCCa
so we'll satisfied with the present school
management they would have received
much larger vote.
The election was a magnificent en-
dorsement of Supt. Fl. 81. Savage and
the present corps of instructors. The
schools are in splendid condition, the
people know it and they took no chan
ces of there being change of policy.
Messrs. Nicholson and Romans are al
S to be congratulated upon the fitting
recognition of their faithful service
The Review does not agree with Mr..
Romans in politics any more than it
ever did since he became democrat
We have felt however, that the public
school government was the poorest
possible place for partisan strife and
we're glad of the opportunity to show
that the Review does not regard "poi
tics" as the constant paramount issue.
we are now assured of another sue
cessful school year and all of our people
are to be congratulated.

ceived from the Mckinley National
Memorial Association limited supply
of the Certificates which have been
prepared for distribution to contri.
butors to the monument fund as
souvenirs of their participation in that
great enterprise. The certificate is q
beautiful work of art on which is given
an excellent reproduction of Mrs. Nc
Kinley's favorite likeness of her hus-
band, together with picture of the
Mckinley home in Canton and the
White House. The wording below the
the illustration is as follows: "This
certifies that--has contributed to

memorial at Canton, Ohio, in honor of
William Mckinley" The workman

highest order, the great house OF
Tiffany & Co., New York, being the
designers and manufacturers. The
supply in the hands of the postmaster
is portion of the first edition OF the
certificates and is sent here to enable
those who have not as yet contributed
to do so. Parties who have already
identified themselves with the move
ment will receive souvenirs direct from
the office of the Association or through
local committees.

an Arion party asking for correspon-

the work but said that it would be i'm

at liberty to get correspondence from
other towns, there is no persecuti, IN
in this regard, as we have yet to hear
an objection offered by any other news
paper man. Mr.. McVey has no right
to try to prevent the people of Arion
and.h cir friends from having the news
of that vicinity published in an outside
paper, and we miss our guess badly If
this state of things is allowed to con-
tinue long We would be pleased to
hear from some Arionite who is not

for the Review ut our regular liberal

Detroit, March 11.-Without the

who madN an address at the morning
session, the Democratic state ju-
dicial convention at the Light Guard
armory in this city would have been
featureless. Judge George L. Yapie

supreme judge for a term of ten years
to succeed Judge Frank A. Hooker,
was nominated without any other
name being presented to the conven-

satisfactory results Will come from tne
creation of this new department.
There were many other bills of i'm
portance considered some of which
were defeated and others enacted into
laws. But what 1 have already said
will give an idea of the Importance of
the work of the last Congress. 1t was
pleasant session and but little fric-
tion manifested between the two par
ties until towards the close of the
session on account OF the decision
on the part of the Republican mana
gers to take up the contest of the seat OF
Representative Butler, of Missouri,
when the democrats started the filibust-
or which lasted until the closing mo-
ment of the session. While there was
seemingly some bitterness manifested
it was more of legislative character
than anything else. A great many Of
the democrats were but little interested
in Butler and some of them did not hes
itate to disclose their animosity towards
him.
The extra session of the Senate will
in all probability be of short duration
as the majority of the Senate without
question is in favor of the ratification
of both the Panama and Cuban treaties.
The Public Building Committee, of
which l have the honor to be member,
had pending before it propositions
amounting in the aggregate to about
fifty to seventy millions of dollars
These various propositions were sifted
and out of the total amount bill was
framed carrying about six millions of
dollars which included those places
where the necessity for relief seems
most pressing. Both Webster City and
Mason City were allowed SIS, 900 for the
purchase of site for public buildings
to be erected in the future. These au-
thorizations for sites practically ensure
| buildings within reasonable time
The Public Buildings Committee is
one upon which falls great deal of
responsibility in deciding just where
and when relief should be granted Each
proposition must be treated separately
and investigated with the view of de.
termining just what should be done In
many cases the committee is called up
on to visit the city seeking an appropri-
alton in order to determine the necessi-
ties of the case. Our committee at this
session visited Elizabeth City, N. c..
Atlanta, Ca, and New Orleans, La,
and were enabled to gather informa.
ton which materially aided in solving
the question as to what should be done
at each of these places.

The day has been one of the most ex-
citing in the city's history, nor is the

part of the country. The trouble be-
gan at noon, when mob of 400 strik-
ers and sympathizers followed a truck
through the principal business streets
endeavoring to knock and pull from
his place a nonunion driver. The
mob also attempted to do violence to
Manager Turner of the Moreton
Truck company. Both men were
saved from serious injury, however, by
the police. Later the police gave no.
tice that any further provocation given
the strikers would be the fault of the
employers and that they would not in
terfere hereafter. Later an attempt
was made to throw a nounion driver
into the river, but the man was saved
by the police. Not half an hour later
another nonunion driver was torn
from truck and, at the point of re.
volver, was compelled to run for his
life. A similar fate befell nonunion
