not mean the end of the fight. The
advocates of an adjustment OF the
schedules to a more rationel basis
will carry their cause to the floor of
the convention, and they should be
encouraged to stand up for their prin-
ciples to the end.
Some of the national leaders, spurred
on by representatives of highly pro-
tected industries, are content to meet
the demand for revision with the par
rotlike cry, "standpat. 'Tis a very
pretty catch phrase, but it does not
meet the situation, which really de-
mands serious consideration. The poll
ticians and trust folk who take such
pride in being "standpatters' would be
wise to take into account the people.
who are not standing pat on this ques-
ton, but are moving toward an ire
sistible demand for modified schedules.
1t should be noted, too, that the
most insistent for revision are firm
supporters of protection. That prin-
ciple has built up American indus
tries and made this country one of
the worlds leaders in manufacture,
and it is an immovable plank in
the republican platform. Wherever
there is a foreign advantage in cost
of manufacture. there must be cor
responding protecting duty. Carried
beyond that point. the tariff becomes
a burden upon the people and the
basis of grinding monopoly. This
lesson has been learned by the people
In way that they will not forget.
The "standpatters" are trifling with
a dangerous situation.

ners jury. held at the time Gus Ele-
geert, a mere lad, shot and killed a
command Of hold up your hands"
made its verdict public Thursday night
at Castleville, nine miles north OF here,
the scene of the tragedy. Elegeert was
held to the grand jury. He has been in
Jail ever since the commission of the
crime, which in many instances Is with
out a parallel in it's nature.
Declares He Is Innocent
The Bulletin Journal has this to say
about the appearance of Elegeert, the
boy murderer, and what he says about
his crime:
"A reporter for this paper visited Gus
Elegeert at the county jail yesterday.
He Is one OF the last boys one would
pick from crowd as criminal, either
In looks or actions. He is almost Is
years of age, fair complexioned and
well grown, with a round. childish face
not consider him specially bright, and
yet there is no appearance of the de-
generate, and his answers to queries
were promptly given, and with appar-
ent candor.
THE young man was born in Brus-
sells, Belgium, and was brought TO this
country when child by his parents.
He talks somewhat broken English. but
not sufficient to mar his conversation,
and his words are well chosen. proving
that he has had school advanta ges. In
answer to questions he gave much the
same story of the sad affair as was de-
tailed in these columns last week, up to
the time of the shooting. He strenu-
ously denied that he ordered Charley
Schram to throw up his hands. He
says he did not know the rifle was
loaded, and was swinging 1T up on a
bird when it was discharged. He claims
he had no reason or desire to shoot
rSchram--they had been boyhood
friends almost as long as he could re-
member at Kewanee. where they fished,
hunted and played together. They
never had any trouble. and he feels
very sorry about the accident.
He admits that he was once in Jail
before. He says that was when he was
a little boy and an older companion had
Induced him to steal some money from
his mother with which to buy candy.
His father, who is boilertnaker in the
iron works at Kewanee. had an officer
incarcerate him for short time just
10 scare him.

AGREE ON TERMS

Of the D. M. G. Fl. D.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. June 25.--After con-
ference lasting nearly two hours yes
terday Vice President Day, of the NJ.
vice president Of the Rock Island,
practically completed an agreement
whereby the Rock Island is to have
wheelage privileges over the Des Moi
mes and Fl. Dodge line to Gowrie. No
agreement was entered into beyond a
verbal understanding. The entire sit
uation was reviewed, plats showing
what belonged to the Rock Island and
what belonged to the Des Moines & TT
Dodge being overhauled. In addition
to the Messrs. Day and Stevens, Sup
Solicitor Clark of the M. 6 S. L.. and
other officials of the latter road were
present.
The securing of the Des Moines &:
FIT. Dodge by the NJ. & s. l.. is an
important matter to Des Moines job
bers. A new territory extending prac-
tically to the Minnesota line and in
Guiding about 100 lively little towns IS
added to their territory.
While some of the wholesalers have
attempted to cover this territory from
here, they have been hampered by pay
ing two local freight rates, instead OF
one. The Rock Island had n tariff fof
handling the goods to Angus. and

The elimination of the Rock Island rate
undersell the Minneapolis and st. Paul
wholesalers. the distance being in their
favor in addition to the natural par
TALLY of retailers to Iowa firms.
The conference of the officials was a
pleasant one. Mr.. Stevens said the
Minneapolis & st. Louis owned the
property and that the Rock island
would be as congenial in turning the
property over as possible.
Vice President Day stated the Rock
Island had number of things that
would be extremely useful to the Min
neapolis & st. Louis. He pointed u. t 4
number of them. Super nteHdent Given
and Mr.. Stevens suggested that as the
Minneapolis 81 st. Louis was in a like
position it might be we'll to reciprocate.
1t was given out en- good authority
yesterday that the agreement that
would probably be entered into be-
tween the two lines would be some
thing like this: The Rock Island 10

the Des Moines & F't. Dodge IN Des
Moines and the double track to saiiey

the line to Gowrie affordns connec-
ton with the Rock Island line north
from that point.
In return the Minneapolis & st.
.ouis is to Rave the use nf the Rock
Island passenger and freight depots IN
pes Moines and ais, the use OF the
Rock Island terminals. It $ probable
also, that certain concessions at the
Rock Island shops IN Valley Junction
will be granted FOR repairs.
