DEBORAH. Nov. THE city is all ex-
citement over the murder or II. T..
Bigelow late Saturday by Professor L.
T. clifford. Mr.. Bigelow did not regain
consciousness after he was struck, but
steadily failed until 8 o'clock at night,
when he died. Professor Clifford was
re-arrested on the charge Of murder In
the first degree and now languishes In
the county Jail. He pleaded not guilty
yesterday, and the hearing was set tor
next Thursday. Bail was fixed at $780,
900, when he will probably secure to-
day.
Both Of the parties connected with
the crime. were prominent residents of
the city. The murdered man, Mr..
Bigelow. was one of the pioneers Of
the county, and had been prominent
In local and state democratic circles
for great many years. He had just
retired from his farm, "a mile south Oh
the city week before and moved into

days.

over q shed which stood upon land be-
longing to both Clifford and Bigelow,
whose lots backed against each other.
Bigelow claimed both the shed and the
land upon which it stood. Clifford
claimed the land and ordered Bigelow
to remove the shed from 1t. Bad blood
developed between them and while
Clifford was digging potatoes on his
lot Bigelow came out to argue the
matter, but before he could say any
thing Clifford struck him q severe blow
on the head with a potato hoe, crush
Ing in his skull. He then dragged his
victim over on his lot, where he was
picked up by neighbors and carried into
the house.
Clifford Is one Of the principal pro-
fessors in the Valdez Business College
and prominent church member and
Is generally believed to have been tenn
porarily insane when he committed the
deed. He will likely be indicted by the
grand jury the last of this month.

Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge, Nov. I'm Webster
county, up until the past five days, the
campaign has been very quiet, the re-
publican party apparently having ev-
erything its own way. Some cam
paign!ng has been done by the county
officials. but no active interest was
aroused. The first excitement was
caused by challenge issued by G. #.
Duncombe, chairman of the democratic
county committee, to G.. Il. Rankin,
chairman of the democratic commits
tee.
This challenge was for Il debate be-
tween four or the best speakers, two
from each party The democratic par
ty had arranged for a rally on the
evening of Monday, November z. Not
Knowing the plans of the democrats.
the republicans had also made ar
rangements for a rally on the same
date. Hon. NJ +. Healy and Maurice
O'Connor were to address the demo-
cratic followers and Hon. Il. u. Healy
and Judge w. 8. Kenyon the republi-
cans.
1t was thought the only way to set
tie the question would be to have the
orators debate at the Midland theater
or the armory each party being given
one hour for debating purposes.
The challenge was accepted by the
republicans and Mr. Rankin went to Mr..
Duncornbe one better, offering to de-
bate with him on the issues. This
challenge was not accepted.
Later 1t was decided by the demo-
cratic party that in order to carry out
such debate 1t would be necessary to
have larger auditorium than any In
the city ard accordingly everything
was called off. and now each party will
hold, a meeting this evening, the DEM
ocrats at the opera house and the re-
publicans at the armory. The speak
ers chosen for the debate will preside
at the meetings.
Conservatives in Webster county
give Roosevelt majority of at least
1900, and with this estimate 1t is
thought the whole county will go solid
for the republican ticket with the ex-
ception of supervisor from the Third
district. Here it is thought that the
present incumbent, Frank w. Collins.
democratic, will have majority of
from 800 to 500. This is his second
term, and while his opponent, 3. c.
Roper is considered an excellent man
for the position, he has had but little
experience in politics.
The hardest fight made in the coun-
ty is on G. FL. Colby, republican. and
present clerk of the courts. This Is
Colby's second term and in Webster
county as we'll as other Iowa counties,
the third term is always met with con-
siderable opposition. He has been In
the court house for about ten years,
for six as deputy and two terms as

not kill The reason Is that germs are
vegetables: and Liquozone-like an ex-
cess Of oxygen-is deadly to vegetal
matter.
There lies the great value OF Liquo-
zone. 1t is the only way known to kill
germs in the body without killing the
tissues, too. Any drug that kills germs
is poison. and 1t cannot DO taken In

that gives Liquozone It's worth to hui

We paid 100000 for the American
rights to Liquozone; the highest price
ever paid for similar rights on any
scientific discovery. We did this after
testing the product for two years,
through physicians and hospitals, In
this country and others. We cured all
kinds of germ diseases with it-thou-
sands OF the most difficult cases OBJ
tainable. We proved that in germ
troubles 1t always accomplishes what
medicine cannot do. Now we ask you
to try it--try it at our expense. Test
