THE TICKET is COMPLETED.

The republican ticket is now com.
pieted and ready for election. The
township convention held Friday even
Ing resulted in the nomination of an
able corps of men for the offices at
It's disposal. 1t was one of the most
largely attended township conyen-
lions held in years and demonstrated
beyond any question that the republi.
cans of Ottumwa and vicinity will not
pc found lacking in enthusiasm at any
time during the campaign. The riv-
airy for the nominations was marked
but was notably good natured. New
men were nominated for the offices of
Justice and constable, men who are
thorough republicans and able to per.
form the duties of the office to which
they aspire with credit to thems elves
and their supporters. William j. Berry
ana M. l.. Kirk, the nominees for
justice. are both old and highly re-
spected residents Of the city No
better qualified men could have been
secured to head the township ticket
than these two and they will undoubt-
edly poll heavy vote George Blount
and |. M. Davis, the candidates for
constable, are also well known in the
township. Mr.. Blount has served one
term as Justice and has acquitted him
self creditably. Mr. Davis is in every
way good man for the office. George
w. Hatch, M. G. Gilmore and Adolph
Roemer were nominated for trustee,
clerk and assessor respectively.
Messrs. Gilmore and Roemer have
served in their respective offices pre-.
yiously and the satisfactory service
they have given is evidenced by their
denomination. Mr.. Hatch is a we'll
known substantial farmer and his Sc.
lection for trustee meets with general
approval.
p. G. Sharp, chairman of the repub.
llcan township committee. was last
evening, reelected to that position by
reclamation, having served through
one term in very able manner.

her displeasure and it Is very doubt.
full IL the cars government does not
have more sympathizers than does
England.
Japan's action at this time does not
tend to lessen the pro-Russian feeling
in America. While Russia has seized
a British steamer and has held Its
crew under arrest the representatives
of the car have assured the British
officials that they did not intend an
infringement of neutral nations
rights On the other hand, yester-
days dispatches asserted that Japan
had sunk four Chinese junks which
were said to have on board contra
band of war and all the crews had been
sent to the bottom with their vessels
In spite of all that is said of Russla's
cruelty to her subjects, her treatment
of the rights of other nations Is uni
formly courteous and the contrast af-
forded by her action and that of Japan
Just at this time is not one that can
add to the sympathy Americans may
have had for the little oriental nation.
Another fact on Russia's side is that
she never rushes into conflict with
any other nation. Japan began the
war which is now in progress and fore
ed the other nation to fight. It
is also noticeable that Russia has Of
fered to go before the tribunal at The
Hague, if necessary, in order to settle
the present controversy with England
in bloodless manner.

TIONS.

While 1t is hardly probable that the
present stage of negotiations between
England and Russia, with regard to
the seizure of the British steamer Ma
lacca by the Russian volunteer fleet,
will grow into anything serious, it has
attracted more attention among the
reading public than has any news since
the rumor of the alleged Japanese de.
feat outside Port Arthur last week.
Russia's action in the Malacca affair.
too, has made friends for that nation
and has probably changed the senti.
ment in America to the side of the car
more than any other event since the
war began.
Great Britain, by her hasty action in
the Malacca case, has only given one
more demonstration of the fact that
she enjoys embarrassing nation al
ready busy with foreign matters of i'm
portance. No one likes the bully who
catches an opponent at disadvantage
and then attacks. England has on sew
eral occasions chosen to force an inter.
national crisis just at time when
the other nation concerned was engag-
ed with other pressing affairs. Just
at this time Russia is the object of
