POLITICS AT THE DAn
Why the Republicans of CiIa County Are Going to Win.

Livingstone, Ariz., Oct. 29.-CSpecial Correspondence of The Republican.)- )- On Thursday evening last a republican mass meeting was held at Roosevelt The attendance was very large and the enthusiasm displayed at the mention ing of MT. B. A. Fowler's name would indicate that this part of Gila county would roll up a big republican major ity. The speakers were the various candidates on the county ticket and all were well received and made a good impression After the meeting it was the consensus of opinion that the full republican ticket would be elected.
 After the candidates had addressed the large audience, a, dance took place which was the most successful ever held at Roosevelt. A large number of ladies from Globe and up Tonto were in attendance and the combined politi- cal meeting and dance was the biggest social success ever pulled off in this part of the county.
 On Friday evening, rousing meet ing was held in the Catalpa school house at> Livingstone, and as the att tendance was over two hundred, the building was inadequate to accommo- date the crawd but the enthusiasm was so great for B. A. Fowler and the rest of the ticket that those who were un- able to get inside were addressed, in

INSPIRATION.
For the Writing Of "sen.Hur."

For the Writing Of "sen-Hur."
Few people know that it was the
famous agnostic, Robert g. Ingersoll
who caused the writing of the novel
ben Hur," the stage version Of
which has created an absolute sensa
ton, not only in this country, but IL
England and Australia. 1t came about
through a chance meeting of the two
famous men in railroad journey
when Christianity became 1 subject
of their talk. General Wallace had
always been a man of strict religious
inclination; indeed his splendid de
scription of the appearance Of the
Star of Bethlehem to the wise men
of the desert had been written before
this chance acquaintance.
The arguments and claims Of the
great infidel were too much for the
doughty general. His senses were
charmed with the eloquence and poet
zeal presentation of the causes Of
agnosticism, but he was by no means
convinced of its truth. The discus.
sion made him deeply reflective and
led him to make careful and ex.
haustive study of the life of the MAJ.
arene. The result of this research and
General Wallace's answer to lnger-
soil was ben Hur," work which has

THE LAW OF WEALTH.
Americas Richest Men Made Thei,
Wealth by Wise Investment.

The similarity of ways by which
Americas richest men have gained
their wealth is surprising. In almost
every case the investment of small
sums in promising companies proved
to be the foundation of these fortunes,
the development of the companies Civ.
ing them wealth. Wealth is not made
by hard work but by wise investment.
You yourself can readily think OF
striking examples of this law. Bell
telephone stock which sold at Sl.O0
is now worth $1,000 per share, Calumet
and Hecla stock which sells at $400
per share. went begging at S1.00 ir
the '70's. Like examples are com
mon.
The Cape Breton Coal and Iron com
pany of Les MONIES, Iowa, at the pres
emit time offers an opportunity for wise
and safe investment that can hardly
be surpassed. The company owns
some forty square miles of valuable
coal and iron lands in Cape Breton,
Nova Scotia, that are of immense
worth. Stock is selling at Is cents
per share, par value $1.00; much below
its true worth, and Is certain to have
safe and steady rise. Every op.
portunity for investigation is offered.

BANK ROBBERS IN TOLLS.
Three Men Under Arrest for Quimby
Robbery.

Cherokee, Dec 30.-Elmer Dunning
tured at Sheldon a few days ago and
confined in the county Jail to answer
to the charge of robbing the Citizens
Savings bank of Quimby, are consid-
cred hard characters by the authori-
ties and they are being carefully
guarded to prevent possible escape.
Sheriff Hogan states that he is GER
tain the men are guilty, although they
refuse to confess, but, on the other
hand, attempt to maintain their in
nocence.
John Wicks, Chas. White and John
Wilson, the three arrested at Kansas
City for completely in the robbery,
were brought here yesterday by
Sheriff Hogan. All but $500 of the
$3.50 stolen was recovered on the
men. All are said to be well known
by the police in northwestern Iowa,
southern Minnesota and southeastern
Dakota, where they have operated for
a number of months 1t Is claimed
that they have been implicated in the
numerous postoffice and bank rob-
berries in this section of the country
that have puzzled the authorities for
months past.
Dunning and Hicks were captured
at Sheldon by means Of the rural tele-
phones. The farmers throughout this
section were notified of the robbery
and given a description of the men.
Several farmers near Sheldon saw the
two bound in that direction and tele-
phoned the sheriff and marshal who
rounded them up Immediately upon
their arrival.
John Wicks, known as Slim" Is
thought to be identical with a profess
sional gambler who made his home
| here for a number of months. 1t is
thought he perfected plans for the
| robbery.
Since the robbery many citizens OF
Quimby claim to have seen the men
and 1t is not thought there will be any
difficulty in establishing their iden-
| tity.

WAR CANNOT BE AVOIDED.
That Is tho Opinion Held by Dipio-
mats in Pekinu.


Picking, Jan. Am the various for,
e!gn legations the opinion is that was
between Japan and Russia is newt
able. This opinion is based on the
latest dispatches from Toxic and on
the conviction that it is not a ques-
tion of detail which separates Russia
and Japan, but the vital principles
as to whether Japan possesses the
right to a voice in the settlement OF
questions connected with the Russian
occupation of Manchuria. Russia all
along has denied this right, and I'M
less her reply shows that she has re.
ceded from this position, which is nos
expected to be the case, it possibly
will provoke an ultimatum from ia
pan, whose determination to resort to
arms in support Of her claim is un-
questioned.
Toxic, Jan. 4.-War with Russia is
regarded here as unavoidable and the
press Is urging the immediate open
ing Of hostilities.
All of the banks are Withholding

suit Of official Instructors.

NATIONAL BANK
GOES TO WALL
Institution at Storm Lake Is
Closed By Comptroller of
the Currency.
THE FAILURE Is NOT SERIOUS
Closing Of Private Bank at Linn
Grove Led to Withdrawal Of De-
posts - Believed Depositors Will
Lose Nothing. ...

Storm Lake, Jan. 4.-Shortly before
the end Of banking hours Saturday
afternoon the First National bank Of
Storm Lake was forced to slose its
doors and suspend operations on an
order from the comptroller Of the cur
rency at Washington. The national
bank examiner who recently made an
inspection OF the business OF the insti'
tuition found such evidence Of insolv-
ency, that it was deemed best to sus-
pend and give time for a readjustment
Of the banks affairs.
w. K. Brown Is the chief stockhold'
er in the bank and it's president; he
came here six or seven years ago
from Sioux Rapids and later bought a
controlling interest from the First
National bank Of Fort Dodge, which
had been a heavy stakeholder. l.. j.
MetcaH is vice president Of the insti-
tuition, and J. B. Alexander cashier.
The report of the bank at the close OF
business on November II, 1903, the
date of the last call, showed its re-
sources and liabilities to be as fol-
lows:
Loans and discounts, $1SS,974; Uni.
ted States bonds, $4,000; stocks, Sc
curties, claims, etc. $5,714; real
estate, $15,192; due from banks and
bankers, S2S,723; cash and cash items,
$7,926; total, $296,532.
Liabilities: Capital stock, $4,000;
surplus and undivided profits, $9,157;
circulation, S49,997; deposits, S1S4,.
OFT; other liabilities, $4,000; total.
$296,32.
The management of the First Ma
tlonal bank has always been conserva-
tive enough in itself and it held the
confidence Of the people until the SEN
sational suicide Of II. w. Mayne at
Linn Grove and the failure of the
Farmers and Merchants private bank
at that place, in which President
Brown of the Storm Lake bank was a
heavy stakeholder.
With that failure the confidence in
the solvency of the Storm Lake bank
was somewhat shaken, and little by
little deposits were withdrawn from
the latter. 1t Is estimated that in all
very nearly $4,000 were taken out in
the past two weeks. This made mat
ters stringent, for the First National
bank, under ordinary circumstances,
would in all probability have avoided
suspension, but with such a heavy
strain on it's deposits 1t was unable to
continue in business safely.
1t is not believed, however, that the
depositors in the bank will lose any
thing. The general opinion OF those
who are informed is that the bank will
ultimately be able to pay out, and
that before very long it will resume
business.
The condition off the bank at Linn
Grove Is not yet known, but it is be-
lieyed that when Receiver F. F. Fa-
vile makes his report it will show
quite q deficit. 1t transpired yester-
day that President Brown OF the
Storm Lake bank and chief owner OF
the Linn Grove bank decided to the re-
ceiver 24U acres of Clay county land
and three business lots in Storm
Lake to help cover the deficit in de-
posts.

The list Of dead continues as it was
given Thursday, in the neighborhood
| Of $50. 1t Is generally accepted at this
time that the most accurate estimate
Is 564. This number will be increased

length of time. 1t is believed, however,
that the total number of dead will not
In any event exceed $40. Including the
missing, it Is estimated that the total
number of casualties is at the present
time approximately 1000.
The best evidence obtainable Is to
the, effect that the fire was caused by
the sparks from an arc light striking
the edge of the drop curtain, but the
actual fact, however, will not be
known until after the conclusion or
the coroner's inquest. There are so
many statements at present, and they
differ so widely, that it is impossible
to ascertain the exact truth OF the
matter.
Although the Iroquois theater was
undoubtedly the safest theater in CHI
cago, it Is evident that the city build
ing department had not strictly en-
forced one or two sections Of the
building ordinance.
William Curran, building inspec-
tor, was in the theater only a few mo-
ments before the catastrophe, and
went away saying that everything
was in good condition. He reported
this fact this morning to Deputy
Building Commissioner StanhOpe.
The deputy commissioner, early this
morning, in company with Building
Inspectors Laughlin, Lense and Dial.
ton, went to the theater to make an
inspection. Upon his return to the
city hall, he said: "The theater and
its management were strictly within
the law | will not go into details
until l have completed my report
Section 1856 of the local building or
dinance provides that in all buildings
of the class to which the Iroquois thea
ter belonged there shall be a system
of automatic sprinklers. There were
no sprinklers in the theater, and Mr..
Stanhope, when this was called to his
attention, replied: There was no
sprinkler system in the theater, but
the provision about the iron doors
made it unnecessary for the theater
to have them"
Section 189 of the ordinance pro-
vides that theaters be equipped with
fire alarms connected with the city
fire alarm system. Mr.. Stanhope
said: 1.-THE Iroquois had fire alarm
connections. did not see the box,
but that Is my information"
City Electrician Hyland said: Tho
Iroquois had no fire alarm connection
with the city fire alarm system. No
application Is on file for any such con-
nection."
The alarm of fire, In fact was
turned in from box over half block
distance from the theater.
The law provides, also, that there
shall be a ventilating shaft at the
rear of the stage which will conduct
flames and smoke away from the audi
forum in just such emergencies. The
Irouuois contained no such ventilating
