SENATOR Tillman claims that the
dispensaryites have a majority Of the
legislature; but the Columbia State
insists that the anti-dispensaryites
have a majority of at least ten in the
house. How this viii be will develop
later on. We have an idea that a
number of senator's will hearken to the
voice of the people as expressed In

THE Columbia Record has the hardi-
hood to claim that the election of An
sci and Lyon is not to be taken as
condemnation of the state dispensary
system. There seems to be no limit to
the gan of some people especially
when that gall is being furnished on
q purely commercial basis.

THERE is no question Of the fact
that the state dispensary was square
ly before the people of the state in the
recent primary, and assertions and de-
ciarations to the contrary notwith-
standing, it is a fact that this is the
first time that 1t was ever squarely
before the people of the state.

The SITUATION In CUBA.-The crit
ical situation in Cuba is absorbing
the attention Of the administration
to the exclusion of all other foreign
matters, says a Washington dispatch.
The president at Oyster Bay is
keeping In close touch with every
development of the revolutionary
movement in Cuba and is in con-
stant communication by wire with
officials here.
The prime object of the admins
tration is to get at the facts. par
ticularly the strength Of the revo-
lutionary sentiment in Cuba and
the relative power Of the govern
menc and the insurgents.
1t is stated officially today that
the purpose of the administration is
to proceed with great deliberation In
dealing with the Cuban question and
that there will be no Intervention
by the United States unless the re-
bellion assumes the proportions OF
a general conflagration.
The development of the day was
the admission that the cruiser Des
Moines had gone southwark to Key
West with the ultimate purpose Of
proceeding to Havana II the devel-
opments seem to warrant such ac-
ton.
The army is prepared to answer
any call, though absolutely no or
ders are yet issued from the presi-
dent or secretary Of war.

THE MASS MEETING TONIGHT
Special 20 T,mes-Republlcan.


Des Moines, Nov. 2.-Just what the
outcome of the indignation mass meet
ing. to be held tonight by the Civic
League, will be no one knows. 1t is
more than possible that the voters OF
Polk county may be stampeded by the
events of the past few days relative to
the bribery charges against the street
railway people, followed and finished
off by this mass meeting, so that 1t
will work the defeat of some of the
republican candidates for county Of
ticers.
The situation Is complicated, and
while the county officers now under
the limelight have their defenders, the
situation has been unanswered so that
the people can see only certain facts,
and. that is that the general manager
of the Des Moines street railway and
one of his employee underlings are al
legged to have, according to affidavits
of reputable citizens, been caught red
handed bribing a city alderman, first
to lower their assessment and second
to vote in favor Of franchise for them,
and that a session of the grand jury
has been held and no indictments re-
turned, tho four Of the seven members
of the grand jury express 1t as their
belief that the evidence was amply
sufficient for an indictment, and the
county attorney corroborates their be-
lief.
With these facts before the people,
everyone who has had the slightest
hand in the matter is being put under
suspicion. There, are four district
judges to be elected at this election.
Two Of them, Judges Brennan and Nc
Henry, have been in no way connected
with the affair, and can in no way be
criticised. Judge Howe is judge Of
the criminal division Of the district
court for this term, and is being accus-
ed of having displayed a weak back
bone in the matter, and, it is claimed,
had he stiffened the grand jury would
not have dared pass by the indict-
ments. Jesse A. Miller. the present
county attorney, lis the fourth candi-
date for district judge on the republic
can ticket, and tho the county attor-
ney is charged with great deal that
belongs to the grand jury, Mr.. Miller
has made a public statement that the
evidence was sufficient to indict and
declared his intention to investigate
charges that the grand jury was inn
properly Influenced He may make the
Statement at tonight's mass meeting,
and the situation may assist to elect
him judge.
There are three other candidates for
Judge. John T. Nfulvaney is the sole
democratic candidate. A. D. Pugh Is
the sole socialist candidate, and ]. K.
Macomber is an independent republic
can candidate. The results of tonight's
meeting are so much in doubt that it
is possible the people may be stam~
peded and elect both Macomber and
MuIvaney. The fact is the Civic
League people are. afraid the meeting
may get away with them and go too
far.
