The business men of Ottumwa are
deeply interested to see that the fac
tory buildings of the Janney company
are not left unoccupied when that In
stitution moves it's business to Column
bus, IND. 1t Is matter of immense
Importance to the retail interests of
Ottumwa that the Janney plant should
be occupied by some first class estab-
lishment For some time the CONNER
cial association of this city has been
considering the proposition of the
Royal Stove & Range company of
Greenville, Ohio, to establish plant
in Ottumwa for the manufacture of
steel ranges, steel cook stoves, air
tight oak heaters and hot blast heat
ing stoves.
The first proposition made was one
which the committee Of the CONNER
cial association felt could not be sue
cessfully met. j. w. Baker, secretary
of the company, is again in
the city and a new PROPOSE
ton has been made which
brings it within range of possible &C
complishment and committee has
been appointed to give the matter care
full consideration and report to the
Comm ercial association their findings
and recommendations. This commit
tee is comprised of the following per-
sons: T. d. Foster A. w. Lee. ]. w.
Neasham, J. B. Sax, George B. Sim
mons.
Committee Reports Tomorrow.
The committee is at work today,
having interviewed MIR. Baker and
carefully inspected the product of the
Royal Stove & Range company. a car
load of which is on exhibition at the
Janney ,company's factory. The mem
bers of the committee will hold an
other meeting tomorrow when it is eX-
pected they will formulate their re-
port and bring the matter at once be-
fore the Commercial association for
action.
Immediate Action Necessary.
Immediate action is an essential
feature of the situation Tie Janney
business at an early date will be re-
moved to Indiana and the Jsnney plaLt
should thereupon be Immediately occu-
pied by a manufacturing establish
ment There is no question but that
| Ottumwa is one Of the best points in
the United States for the establish
ment of a stove factory. 1t is a stand
ard product and the demand is steady
and continuous, while Ottumwa is one
ofthe best distributing points in the
west for this class Of goods. The prop
osition now under consideration is of
SO favorable a character that it has
interested number of prominent men
who have already declared their will

announcement If the investigation
of the committee find it to be feasible.
Ottumwa Wants Factories.
1t goes without saying that Ottumwa
wants more factories and Is ready to
do the right thing to secure first
class institution. 1t is to be greatly
hoped that the proposition now under
consideration is one that will prove to
be feasible and worthy of the fullest
confidence and support of the people

whose name may some day be written
in history as the savior of a nation,
as the strong man into whose hands
the hunted emperor has confided the
destinies of the state as prime minis
ter J, aGg So.
The car has CEASED to be a czar:sNo
longer is he absolute. A man who but
short time ago was merely Rus
sian citizen is now at the helm, and
the order which gave him place checks
in its incipiency what promised to be
one of the bloodiest chapters in the
history Of the world.
A simple perusal of the emperor's
manifesto shows how complete is the
abdication of his autocratic power. The
very style of the document is clear
and direct, and devoid OF the verbose.
vague, and bombastic phraseology
which heretofore has characterized his
majesty's manifestoes.
Nicholas Yields Everything.
It not only betrays real friendship.
but shows that the emperor at last has
irrevocably bowed to the inevitable. He
does not even conceal the fact that
the discomfort and agitation of his sub.
jects have driven him to take the step
and practically yields verything-civ-
il liberty, the inviolability of person,
and liberty Of conscience, speech and
assembly.
He not only converts the farcical
imperial douma, with only consultative
power, into an absolute legislative as
sembly, without the assent of which
no measure shall become law, and be
fore which all government authorities
must answer, but promises eventually
universal suffrage.
The title "Autocrat of all the Rus
sias," with which the manifesto be-
gins, now takes it's place with the title
Of king of Jerusalem borne by the
King Of Spain and the Emperor OF
Austria, and with other obsolete titles
of European sovereigns.

The minister was called to the tele.

Gentlemen, the old order of things
has changed. Rus STA has a constitu.

The news spread like wildfire
throughout the city. The revolutionists
and active agitators generally declar'
ed loudly that the governments prom
ises would no longer suffice and that
the strike must be continued.
In fact an hour after the news be
came known the revolutionists took
occasion to throw tho first bomb in st
