The Sioux City Journal is now
devoting some of its news and edi-
toral space to showing up the
attitude OF Congressman Hubbard,
OF Sioux City. During the recept
state convention in the defeat of
George Perkins for his nomination
for governor 1t appeared that Con-
eressman Hubbard would also he
defeated when 1t came to the con-
gres6ional convention. However
after the battle was over Mr. Hub.
bard began to bestir himself to save
his hide, and he did most efiectually
by throwing down Mr.. Perkins and
taking up With the Cummins
faction, which insures his nomina-
,tion and practical reelection to
Congress this fall. In his first
campaign Mr.. Perkins and mis- Jour-
nal were both very strong in favor
Of Mr.. Hubbard and we're largely
Instrumental 10 securing his nomin-
alton and election. Such is the
gratitude OF Mr.. Hubbard.

heads of the civilians were
Dared in honor OF these grand old

opened On Thursday, when the bust

campnent from the hottest month in
the year to the fall months, when
there would be less liability for the
old soldiers to be overcome by the
heat.

Congressman and Mrs. Longworth,
who are Just home from a trip
abroad, are enthusiastic over the
feeling that is prevalent across the
water toward this country. Con-
gresham Longworth said that no.
where they went did they find any
thing but the most cordial feeling
for US. With reference to the pack
ina house exposures, he said that
the question vas discussed very little
10 Europe and that 1t aforementioned
only incidentally once or. twice, and
wa not the subject for general con-
yersation among the pepole. This
is somewhat different than was sup
posed to be, the case when the
exposure came out, as it was
frequently stated that the exporting
Of meat would receive a severe blow,
but Mr.. LongWorth looks for but
little cessation in the work OF
exporting u meats to foreign
countries.

there is nothing doing now but to
watch the race for the pennant in
the National aud American leagues
OF baseball, for both the Chicago
teams are at the head of the respec-

The so-called union left the Pres
bytery without funds and so the FIRST
matter to be looked into was how to
place Princeton presbytery upon a
business and working basis. II was
calculated that a pro rata of two dol
lars among the fourteen represented
churches and several others known
to be loyal. This proved the magic
touch. Men good and true pledged
their churches for the union, paying
it into the treasury there and then
themselves, taking their respective
churches for reimbursement. Some
were not prepared to do this. Then
it was that Geo. w. Putnam said
eff any delegate is not prepared to
pay this money now | will pay it and
take his church for il" Needless to
say that the money was raised and
Cumberland Presbyterianism did not
die,
Various committees were appoint
ed TO look after divers affairs.

CHARLES MINNER
KILLED BY WAGON
FALLS IN FRONT OF LOAD OF CORN AND
SUSTAlNS FATAL INJURIES.
Victim Was a Prominent Farmer Of the
Sheridan Vicinity and Leaves
a Family.
REMAINS BURIED SATURDAY

Chas. Minner, one of the best
known and most substantial farmers
in the Sheridan Hurricane vicinity,
was horribly crushed last Thursday
by being run over and dragged by a
wagon loaded with corn. He was
driving down a hill and the front
end gate burst out of his wagon and
he slipped with the corn out under
the heels of his team and as the wa
gon passed over him with locked hind
wheel he was dragged and crushed
beneath the heavy load. He was
frightfully injured, his ribs being
torn loose from the hack bone. He
displayed great nerve and arose and
walked to the house, but the arrival
of the the physician revealed the
fact that there was very slim
chance, if any, for his recovery. He
lived about twenty-four hours.
He leaves, besides his wife, who
was Miss Wooten, daughter of
James Wooten, four children. His
mother, Mrs. Macinda Minner, died
only few weeks ago.
The interment took place Satur-
day at Hurricane graveyard. Rev.
L. d Borgess. preached the funeral.
Mr.. Minner was christian gen
tleman aud had been a member in
good standing Of the Methodist
church at Hurricane for many years.
His widow and orphans have the
sympathy Of The Press in their
affection.
