Special to Times Republican.
Webster City, Ia, Lee. 6.-sThe per-
sistency with the press dispatches
are being sent out OF Des MONIES to
various state papers grooming Judge
j. II. Richard of this city as a candi-
date against the Hon. j. p. Conner for
congress in the I nth district, is an
noying to the judges many friends and
admirers In this city. The particular
reason for annoyance is the suspicion
that the dispatches are being sent out
and his friends and political advisors
from the district judgeship with the
hope that in the shuttle and shake up
the judge will suddenly ind himself
outside the breastworks at the next
judicial convention. The most recent
of the dispatches referred to appeared
in the Sioux City Tribune under q cap
ital city date line. 1t contained the
most astounding information that Con-
ner's managers in order TO sidet track
Richard as an opponent had held out
inducements to the effect that when
Shaw retired from the cabinet Richard
could become member OF the presi-
dents official family by a mere nod
of the head. This dispatch went on
to say that now that it was announced
that Shaw would remain In the cabine.
indefinitely, Richards had again camp
ed on Corners trail.
The Freeman Tribune Of this city, a
paper most friendly to Judge Richard
and his interests, commenting on this
last dispatch says editorially: ut Is in
teresting as showing the phenomenal
Imagination Of some day dreamer in
Des Moines.
"Only this and nothing more.
"He (Judge Richard) has made
satisfactory record on the bench and
Is a candidate for reelection. His
chances for securing reelection are
good, and his real friends here at home
are not advising him to sacrifice these
chances to enter the contest for con-
gress against Mr.. Conner, whose re-
nomination is foregone conclusion"
Judge Richard, himself, has stated
that he is not a candidate for con-
gress. He expects to remain on the
bench. although he is greatly interested
in national politics and at different
times has aided in the framing Of ma
tional legislation.
AS to the report that Judge Richard
had been offered place in the cabinet
by the Conner interests absolutely no
credence is placed upon 1t. To Judge
Richards close friends it is merely a
large piece of bait thrown out to dis
tract their attention from judicial pol
tiles, the congressional bait having
failed to do this. But the Des Moines
correspondent who is insisting on
electing Judge Richard to something
larger than a judges1ip is certainly in
genious and resourceful and has built
what looks like most plausible story
upon a really trivial foundation.

must be passed upon and lots of time
will be required. The most important
one probably, is the primary election

sideratIon again. The act has failed
to pass at previous sessions of the leg
islature and unless there has been a
great change in the sentiment OF the

"The Anti-Pass bill on the contrary
will probably become a law despite the

TT Madison, Dec. 6--The case Of
the trustees of the White estate vs..
Penn college, Oskaloosa. has taken a
new turn in the Lee county district
court. The college has demurred on
the ground that the plaintiffs have no
interest In the White estate, as main
tanned in the action brought some
time ago, when they sought to COM
pei Penn college to maintain separ-
ate and distinct school near FIT. Madi-
son. Tho demurrer will be heard be-
fore Judge Banks, OF Keokuk, In this
city, some time during the January
term
The case has its origin from the
gift, made many years ago In the sos,
when a man named George White, of
Philadelphia, wlled upon his death two
sections of land in this county, for
the purpose OF maintaining school
for poor children, whites, blacks and
Indians. The proceeds from the lana
were to DE used for the school. ana
one was formed in the shape OF an IN
dustrial school, which later became
the Iowa Industrial School for Boys,
now located at Eldora. When this in
stitution was removed to Eldora an ef-
fort was made to continue school on
the grounds and in the buildings va
Gated, but at that time proceeds from
the farm We're Insufficient to keep up
the school in a satisfactory manner.
Mr.. Whites will provided that the
trustees of this school should be elect
ed by the Iowa Yearly Meeting of
Friends, and at one session years ago
the yearly meeting decided that more
good could be derived from the sup
port If the proceeds were given to the
support of Penn College.
This, however, did not prove salts
factory to the old trustees, all Of whom
live i'm the neighborhood of the land,
and about year ago they brought an
action to enjoin the trustees of Penn
College from using any of the funds
derived from the proceeds of the land
for Penn college, and to compel them
to maintain a school on the farm. In
their demurrer the trustees OF the col
lege claim that the old trustees have
no such interest din the property that
entities them to maintain an action
against the college.
The outcome of the case is watched
with interest in this part of the state
as the annuity from the land is no
small sum. The action is also Of much
interest to every member of the Iowa
yearly meeting The land in question
is as fine as any in the state. and is
worth $500 an acre on the market to-
day. The 1880 acres yield am income
of 81 an acre per year.

ton, and McCoid and Finley. of Mt.

Cirundy Center, Dec 6.-At the small
est tax sale ever held in Grundy coun-
ty. occurring at this place Monday, only
eight pieces of property were sold and
the total amount of delinquent tax
was $54.
The extremely small sale is due to
two causes. One is the prosperity OF
the taxpayers this year: the other,
and the cause chiefly responsible for
this condition, is the fact that Treas
urer j. w. Pepperman sent a notice to
every taxpayer whose tax was not
paid by the first Of November Most
pieces Of property are sold merely be-
cause Of neglect on the part Of the
owner, and most property owners APP

The muscles of the body can be de-

man can lift, and there is also limit
