Represent Sentiment at Burlington.

Burlington, Jan. 11.-Standing be-
fore an audience of thirty people at
the Swedish Methodist Episcopal
church last evening, showing
every evidence of intense feeling, ex-
Senator r. G. Harper Of this city de-
nounced the local newspapers as sub
sidized sheets, and scored the local
city government for failing to keep
their oath of office. He praised Cover
nor Cun1mins and denounced those who
were opposing him in certain political
measures. He rejoiced that Yerkes,
the millionaire, had died alone and de-
nounced everybody who would accept
a railroad pass.
He was ably seconded by the Rev.
Carl Ehlund, who took occasion to
score the evening paper.
Mr.. Harper's discourse was an
nounced as the first of series of lee
lures arranged by Rev. Mr.. Eklund-
The subject was "Perils of the Repub-
lic."
The local newspapers were all hit by
Senator Harper when he said, In
speaking of the fact that the proposed
primary election law ds not receiving
the hearty support IL shouio ieeeiso
here:
l wish that a mammoth petition
could be gotten up here and sent to
Governor CumInins at Des Moines,
telling him that the newspapers here
do not represent the sentiment OF our
people. If we got up that petition we
would be acting the same as when on
our knees in prayer"
This sentiment was loudly applauded
by the audience of thirty people who
apparently appreciated the discourse
