letter from John A. kasson?s he in

lit Was only an instance OF news gath
ering. the delegate continued: Well.
!, that letter was about the best thing we
/ have seen for a long time. 1t met the
views of a great many of our peopie
| 1t made it very plain to us that Iowa
Republicans had merely overstepped
the mark and had strayed away from
lrepublicanism. | want to tell you that
the party cannot afford to ignore the
advice of such men as kasson. Re-
publicans much look to just such
young and Independent leaders as
Cummins, in Iowa, to Van SAINT, in
Minnesota, to La Toilette. in Wiscon-
sin, and to our own Coe l. Crawford,
! in South Dakota, or the party will be

There has been some criticism of the
state capitol commission because of
not going ahead at once with the re-
pairs which have been provided for.
The commission has been in session
this week getting ready to continue
the work But in fact the commission
will not haYe any very large amount
| of money available until next year.
and it was not worth while beginning
the small jobs about the capitol. 1t is
the intention of the commission to
provide that the great bulk of the work
shall be done all at once, so that the
cost of supervision will be minimized.
and the annoyance to state officials
will be as small as possible. Con-
tracts will be let with this understand
ing. The money for the repair of the
hall of the house is a fund separate
from other funds. and all that is need
ed is to have this work done before
the legislature meets again. The gem
eral work cannot be paid for out of
this fund The first of the repair work
will be in the supreme court rooms,
and then there will be work done in the
offices of the north end Of the capitol
the railroad commissioners. the de-
partment of agriculture. the clerk of
the supreme court and the offices in
the basement story.
There is general anticipation that
the purchase by the Minneapolis and
ST. Louis railroad of the old Fort
Dodge line will mean a good deal of
railroad building to connect up the
Iowa Central and Minneapolis lines
thru Des Moines and elsewhere. in the
next few years. The notion that the
Rock Island will in fact build a new
line to connect the Gowrie line with
Des Moines is prevalent, and there are
some indications that the new line will
start from Van Meter and pass thru
Adel, Perry and Jefferson.

Have Been Printed Here.

Secretary Gamble yesterday started
writing the pamphlet which is to be
sent to st. Louis for the advertisement
of Savannah The pamphlet will be
printed as soon as possible and for
warded to st. Louis.
Mr.. R. NJ. Martin, in charge of the

pamphlets. Indeed, Mr.. Martin is due
the credit for the entire plan. as city
officials only took the matter up after
he came to Savannah and urged upon
them the Importance of such a plan.
The pamphlet. which is being pre-
pared, will contain nothing new to Sa-
vannahians. 1t will be a rehash of
articles already printed. But to those
not familiar with conditions here. the

"SHERIFF KENDRICK DID
JUST WHAT I'D HAVE DONE"
stan Omcer of First Regiment Says
Every One Did Duty.

Every One Did Duty.
DR.. A. A. Morrison. surgeon of the
First Regiment of Infantry, who was
an interested auditor at the trial of
Cato and Reed and afterwards a spec
tatOr to the scenes Immediately fol-
lowing the pronunciation of sentence,
gives an interesting account of what
.transpired. Dr. Morrison went to
Statesboro as a citizen, after he had Of
fered his services to Capt. Hitch, who
was unable to take him.
Il told Judge Daley" said Lieut..
Morrison last night, that every one had
done his duty; the states counsel had
presented the case thoroughly, the
court had delivered an impartial
charge, the jury had returned the
proper verdict Capt. Hitch and his
men had acted the parts of soldiers in
every sense of the word, and the citi-
zens had administered the very pun
ishment which the criminals deserved.
capt. Hitch did his part well, and,
with the cool head of a noble soldier,
kept the bowling mob from coming
up the stairway for about two hours.
Finally when he was unexpectedly I'M
armed by a 20O-pounder, and pushed
down the stairway into the crowd,
the mob forced its way up the stairs.
My brother and | were standing at
the head of the stairs. The sheriff
a this moment saw that the mob had
possession of affairs and walked direct
ly across the Court House and opened
the door to the ante-roOm and ordered
the guards to stand aside and let the
mob take the prisoners.
IF Capt. Hitch had allowed one shot
to have been fired, i'm my opinion, we
would not have brought back a single
Savannah boy. Capt. Hitch is simply
a cOOl-headed officer and deserves
credit for the way he acted Sheriff
Kendrick did just what l would have
done under the same condition of af-
fairs -
