cummins Wants to Be Fair to All
interests, and Believes He Will Be
Elected by Large Majority.

Special to Times Republican.

the Grand last night on their way
home to Clermont, after a visit with
their daughter, who resides in Lincoln.

present gubernatorial campaign, Gov
ernor Larrabee at first was loth TO
talk. pleading that advancing years
and business had necessitated with
drawal from active personal partici-
patton in politics. He did, however,
express himself rather forcibly in favor
of Governor Cummins' candidacy.
ut is only question" he said, "of
whether the people of the state will
choose to run it's government, or
whether they will submit to railroad
domination, and in my opinion Cover
nor Cummins stands for square and
fair deal in this line In fact, / some.
times believe he is inclined to be a
trife too fair to those fellows, where
a more hotheaded man might in the
stress of the moment overdo the rem
edying"
AS to what the outcome Of the elec-
ton this fall will be, Governor Larra-
bee declined to venture an opinion,
urging that he had not familiarized
himself enough. He stated that in his
home county and the surrounding ones
of northeastern Iowa it looked like a
landslide for Cummins.
When told of the new system of
downtown lighting that is to be in
stalled in this city, he expressed ap-
proval, and took occasion to mention
the cleanly and orderly aspect of the
city in general.
1t was during Governor Larrabee's
terms of service, lasting from 1885 to
1890. that the board lof railway COM
missioners was first inaugurated, and
Attorney Spencer Smith, of this city,
served as one of three men on the first
board His competent services were
made a subject of favorable comment
by Governor Larrabee last evening.

CLASH WITH UTE BAND
Troops Meet the Indians and Latter
Resist Attempt to Take 100 Ponies
Other Indians Becoming Restive Un-
der the Present Situation.

Sheridan, Wyo., Nov. IA skirmish
occurred Wednesday between a band
of the renegade Ute Indians and q
troop of the Tenth cavalry on Bitter
creek, according to word brought by a
special courier. The troops had cap
tured fifty Ute ponies and severelS
frightened five herders.
AS the troopers We're driving away the
ponies, 100 Utes, fully armed, sur
rounded the cavalrymen and the pom
les, stampeding the ponies with revo.-
yer shots and native war whoops. The
Indians recovered all their ponies but
five that were killed by the troops in
an effort to stop the stampede.
The Indians did not fire at the SOL
diers The soldiers desisted from at
tacking the Utes as the reds greatly
outnumbered the troopers.
Toropers say as far as can be ascer-
tanned from rumors and observation,
the Indians will fight with little provo
cation.
Another detachment of the Tenth
cavalry that left Sheridan Monday
night ran across a wandering band Of
Crow Indians under command of Chief
Sweet Mouth. The troopers drove the
Crows back to the Grow agency. The
Crows said that they were hunting an
denied any intention of joining the
Utes.
Still another squad of the Tenth cav
afN fell in with band of Cheyenne
Indians, who, on representation that
they were hunting We're allowed to go
in peace.
Settlers charge that Indian guides
employed by the federal troops are
acting treacherously and leading the
troops on false trails to keep the SOL
diers from overtaking the Utes. These
settlers mentioned among the willy
guides Woman's Dress, American
Horse and White Cow Bull.

Brakeman Ralph Wood said that he

number in the second car He said he
thought there were between sixty anu

kessler, whose yacht, Sinbad, requir"
ed the draw to open just prior to the
accident, said he had just tied up at
his wharf when he heard a crash. He
hurried, back in a boat to do what he
could. He had no quarrel with Bridge
tender Stewart about refusing to open
the draw. George Mccullough, who
was passing on the turnpike bridge OPP
posite the electric bridge, when the ac-
cident happened, said he saw the cleo
tfic cars go overheard. The right
hand wheels and front truck of the
leading car. he said. left the rails first.
John Williams, switchman, at the
ssomers lumber camp, corroborated
McCullough's statement, with reference
to the forward car being the first to
leave the track. The jury took re-
cess until two o'clock this afternoon,
when bridgetender Stewart will be re-

James Curtis, conductor of the
wrecked train, testified that there was
no delay and that the train reached
Pleasantville one minute ahead of

dent was sudden bump and the train
dashed into the thoroughfare. Curtis
said he escaped by kicking a hole thru
the window. He denied he had been
warned before leaving Camden that
anything was wrong with the rear car.
IIe admitted there was decided bump
as the accident occurred as tho the
train met some obstruction.

Boston, Nov. LIN political speeches
at republican rallies at Beverly and
Salem, Attorney General Moody said he
was investigating the Great and pow
erful coal and oil combinations" That
if he found evidence of an illegal COM
bination he would proceed without re-
gard to personal or political conse-
quences.
Moody said: "a few weeks ago
Bryan said the trusts were the para
mount issue. am not quiet sure he
is not right. He expressly congratu-
lated Roosevelt on the step he had 1sk-
en- on the enforcement of the anti
trust laws.
"Great industries are no longer con-
Quoted by individual, but by organi- :
led capital. Organized capital in mod
ern industries is necessary. Organiza-
ton of labor and organization of capt.
tai are here to stay. We have right
to ask of both that they shall obey the
laws of the land.
t'When a combination Of wealth OBJ
tains great power, as it will, IT destroys
individual initiative, disturbs normal
growth of commerce and sometimes
the government. I myself have seen
written on a sheet of paper the price OF
killing off competition. Have seen the
cost of driving out OF business the
bold Independent and division among
all confederates. It Is not wise that
the people let amy combination like
this exist"
The attorney general continued:
"Havemeyer. the sugar, man, says the
tariff is the mother of trusts It ID
not the tariff that is the mother OF
trusts it is the railroad rebate that
is the mother of trusts and Of Its col
lateral relatives" !.
Moody explained that he was staere
at the expressed and earnest request
of Roosevelt. He added:
"The president has made 1t mani-
fest that it is his earnest desire
that the republican nominees
should be elected to the next house
of representatives and should be in
harmony with him.
After pointing out the results that
would follow the election of demo-
cratic house, the attorney general said:i,
"Can any sane man doubt under
such circumstances, that the whole

tives would be exerted to thwart y

attention to the fact that the saloons
of Lee county, mot Fort Madison, are
operating under the mulct law and
hence there is a huge 60 mark put af-
ter the source of the revenue.
Two other minor infringements are
pointed out by the inspector. The city
ordinances provide that the city clerk
shall be paid $3.50 year and the city
attorney $500 year. but both officers
have been paid on special orders much
more each year. The inspector does
not question but that they have earned
their pay, but says the ordinance
should be changed or else obeyed. A
matter of an expenditure of So0 FOR
the San Francisco sufferers and an
other of $3.50 to get pictures OF Fort

being without authority of law.
Charles Aldrich, curator of the his
torical department. has unearthed
small pamphlet of but few pages

Capt. J. A. T. Hull was secretary of
state, which gives the list of all the
officers of the state and some other
information. The pages are about 8
by 80 inches Mr.. Aldrich believes
that it was the forerunner of the OF
fetal Register. The first official reg
lister was published in 1885 Whlle
Mr.. Aldrich was clerk of the house
many years ago when the state was
young, he offered 10 gather the ma
terial without compensation If the leg
islature would appropriate a sum suf-
ficient to print the official register.
The legislature refused and the ap-
propriation was never secured till
1886. Now the Official Register is
recognized as one of the most Vaiu-
able of state publications and IL 1t
had been issued in that early day Mr.
Aldrich believes would have preserved
information now unobtainable almost.
-Four early volumes of the Official
Register, those for 1886, 1887. 1888 and
1890. are now very rare and hard to
obtain and Mr. Aldrich is considering
making reprints of them if the lesisla-
ture does not make an appropriation
for that purpose.
