Webster City April 21.-M. f.
Springer, of Des Moines. representing

few days. Mr.. Springer is the gentle-
man who made the citizens a PROPOSE
ton last year by which he agreed to
establish gas works here and expend
certain amount of money in return
for a frs .nchise. The matter nearly
came to 4 vote. but before election day
arrived a number of local business men
organized company and asked the
citizens TOR franchise for a gas plant
and voluntarily offered to pay the sum
of $4,000 for the same. Mr.. Springer
thereupon gracefully withdrew from
the field and the local company was
voted the franchise.
After The election was held and the
$4,000 franchise voted the promoters
claimed to have discovered some flaw
gave them the franchise and declined
to put up any of the cash. and since then
no part of the $4,000 has been paid
Mr.. Springer has kept himself fully in
formed of events in this city and has
returned for the purpose of renewing
his former proposition to the citizens il
be receives anywhere near the encour>
looks as tho there might be an oppor-
tunity to fight over again the strenu-
GUS gas battles of last summer.

BY Miss BEATRI cE DARLINGTON.

Last spring 1 was very much run
down. and so weak that the slightest
exertion exhausted me so that would
have to sit down and wait until /
could catch my breath and for my
heart to stop f1uttering.
Il was particularly hearty active
girl, but my health left me suddenly
and began to grow weaker l used to
think that If grew so weak in such a
short time it would only be a little
time longer before would be on my
bed. perhaps dying.
Il remember the day I took my first
dose of Paines Celery Compound.
While visiting a friends house had a
weak spell. The medicine did me so
much good that on my way home I
bought bottle. The relief was great.
II decided I would keep on taking
little doses regularly until my system
was built up, and l did so for three or
four months Occasionally take
dose of Paine's Celery Compound now
when the strain has been a little too
much for me.

WOULD FIGHT HEDGE.
First District Democrats Would Put Up
Judge Smyth, of Burlington.

Special TO Tdmes-Republican
keokuk. April 21.-Judge Smyth Of
Burlington seems to be favored with
much earnestness and enthusiasm by
many democrats in Keolluk as the
democratic candidate for congress. Not
much thought was given until the re-
publican convention held here nomiii.
ated Hon. Thomas Hedge to succeed
himself. Since then the matter is be-
ing considerably discussed. most demo-
Gratis taking the view that as this is
presidential year the democracy
should select one of the best men in
the district for the place, and not, as
is usually the case when there appears
no chance for success, just put up a
log, to be shamefully knocked down.
From the present outlook Judge Smyth
would easily have the lead here, against
all opposition If he would say the
word, against all corners. That is the
way it appears.

| Fort Dodge, April 21.-The demo-
cratic county convention which meets
| in this city on next Saturday prom
| ises to be a Reorganization of the old
| time democratic faith in a general
| getting together of the democrats of
Webster county. The party realizes
| that many sad mistakes have been
made, and there is now feeling of
determination on their part that if
| they must profit by their past mis-
ganization and a strong pull together.
| Up to the present time no candidate
| has appeared upon the scene of po-
litical circles who is willing to an
nounce himself open and above board,
as entertaining the idea that he can
be candidate against Judge Con-
nor and succeed; that there will be
a candidate is foregone conclusion,
but who it will be, Will be developed
in the convention. Honorable j. 3.
Butler of this city, who made a strong
showing in his race for state senator
against Senator Young, Of Manson, last
fall, is out az a candidate for the po-
sition of delegate at-large. Express
sions from the leading democratic poll
iticians of the county leads to but one
conclusion, that the delegates from the
county convention to the state conven-
ton at Des Moines May 4th, will go
luninstructed. There can be little doubt
but that this policy will be followed out.
Mr.. Butler. when interviewed. rela-
tive to the reports sent out, that he
would be a candidate for congress on
the democratic ticket against Judge
Connors, of Denison, laughed at the
idea. He gave 1t as positive state
ment, that he was entertaining no
such thought, but acknowledged that
he would be candidate for delegate
at-large.

MUST COME TO TERMS
General Indignation Over Reported
Breaking of the Law by Railway
Companies - Effort to Secure New
Legislation.
Special to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 21.-Just as soon
as the railways crossing Iowa put INTO
effect the order restricting the use of
the return pass to livestock shipments
within Iowa, the officials of the county
branches of the Corn Belt Meat Pro-
ducers Association of Iowa will begin
the circulation Of petitions asking Gov
ernor Cummins to call a special session
of the legislature to enact new ieslsia-
ton. The officials of the association
are now consulting attorneys regarding
legislation that can be passed that VIII
compel the railroads to come to terms.
The report published few days ago
was the first intimation the stockmen
and the legislators had of the stand
the railroads intended to take. Since
the publication. several railroad men
nave confirmed it. Mr.. H. c. Wallace,
who was recently in conference with
railroad officials. hopes that the ORDER
will be changed, The Great Western
was not represented at the conference
in Chicago and the stockmen hope that
President Stickney will deliver BODY
blow to the anti-pass agreement.
J. ]. Ryan of Fort Dodge, secretary
of the association, In discussing the
matter yesterday. said: Il certainly
can not believe that the railroad mans
ayers are so foolish as to try to evade
the stock shippers pass law. me
question is not one of constitutfonaiity.
but one of honor.
'T can scarcely believe that the ran
roads intend to break faith botn with
the stock shippers and the state legis-
lature Every senator and representa-
tive as we'll as every Iowa shipper
knows that the law was an agreed
measure between the stocllmen and the
railroad representatives. For that reas
on the best lawyers in the legislature
did not even take the pains to consider
it's constitutionality, as they knew 1T to
be a measure satisfactory to both par
ties. The chairmen of the railroad
committees of the legislature so stated
in presenting the bill, and 1T passed
both the house and the senate without
dissenting vote.
81 am surprised at the railroads at
tempting to play horse with the stock
shippers, but when they break faith
with the Iowa legislature. they need
not be surprised If laws are passed the
of which cannot be
questioned, inasmuch as they have
made it possible for us to carry on
interstate commerce in livestock with
out unbearable losses.
Every senator and representative
with whom / have talked are indignant
at the reported action of the railways
and will unite with the stockmen In
petition TO Governor Cummins TO call
a special session of the legislature for
the purpose of assisting us in having
such legislation passed as is required
to take the place of the law which the
railway companies are reported to have
broken.
I'VE have associations in every
county in the state and will be able
to present one of the strongest petit
tons ever circulated in the state"
