Fort Dodge, Nov. 6.-The campaign
In Webster county was closed Monday
evening by republican meeting held
in the 4Armory building, the meeting
being well attended. An automobile
trip was made thru the county Mon
day by the same speakers as spoke at
managers made this last work Of the
republicans the occasion of dirty and
disreputable effort to cast suspicion
upon the men who were taking part
in the canvass.
The republican party had gotten out
posters describing the route but be-
fore they had been thoroughly distrib-
uted the democrats got out similar bills
which had exactly the same typo
graphical appearance and much the
same wording, On the democratic
dodgers Were the words railroad auto-
mobile trip" whereas on the original
it stated republican" Down further
the imitation dodgers stated that the
railroads would close their campaign in
this county by a speaking trip at which
their representatives would speak.
their representatives being summed up
as follows: ct D. Healy, representing
the Illinois Central, the Chicago Great
Western and the Fort Dodge, Des
Moines &, Southeastern; w. S. Kenyon,
of Chicago. general attorney for the
Illinois Central. and j. P. Dolliver, late
of the Blythe Hunter-Pe faction,
will speak"
The, effort, however, to discredit the
republican campaign fell flat and the
trip was success in every particular.
Senator Dolliver was the prime mover
in the campaign here. and the fact that
he has been so actively engaged in the
work of securing legislation for the
regulation of railroads made the effort
to connect him with the railroad cam
paign ridiculous. A good many demo-
Gratis resented the efforts of their
would-be leaders, and the whole thing
will react against the party in today's
election.

Among the other cities who will be

A league composed OF any six or

Boston, Aug ga few hours before
the heat wave. which has held persist
emily over New England since last Sa :
urday, was broken this evening Ivy ne
advent of a cool blast of air from tie,
north, many portions of New England
were visited by thunder showers of
more or less intensity. and Is usual
there were fatalities and considerable
damage to property.
The shower which passed down the
Merrimac river and then northeastward
over southwestern Maine resulted in
one death at Kenncbunk. Il hail storm
in Portland and the destruction of two
barns in York. while an hour or two
earlier what was probably the same
disturbance, caused the burning by
4Ehtning OF two buildings in Peterbor-
x0,igh, N. II.
y Another disturbance Of a compare
lively small nature passed over Massa-
Chusetts and out to sea over CohaSse1,
but 1t was not as severe as the Merri-
mac river storm.
Thunder showers also prevailed in
Vermont and certain portions of north
ern Maine, but at a late hour tonight
no reports as to extensive damage had
been received.
The cool wave which followed closely
after the thunder showers. brought
great relief to the entire New England
section. The barometer in this city
dropped 10 degrees within a few min
utes this evening. while in Biddefori
overcoats were necessary at 10 O'Clock,
where an hour before the lightest gar
ments seemed a burden.
The heat wave began on Saturday
and since then there have been few
places In New England where the the--
mometer has not reached So and even
90 during some portion of the succeed
ing days.
An area of low pressure seemed 10
hang persistently over the st. Law
renee valley. which drew up from the
south and southwest the hot, moist
conditions which have brought so much
discomfort. Prostrations have been
greater during the past six days than
at any time this summer.
The summer which is drawing to a
close has been noteworthy for contrary
conditions, for the cool moist weather
came first and the intense heat fol-
lowed.
A continuation of the cool wave
which struck New England this even
ing is anticipated for the next few
days.
