NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. FROM BAG

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES FROM BAG
Last night at Polls new theater
Brindamour, who has exhibited all
kinds of tricks in the escaping act per-
formed the almost incredible act of es-
Gaming from a bag which ]. Johnson &
Sons challenged him to do. When the
bag from which he escaped was shown
to the audience there was a hole just
about large enough for him to put his
hand through in the side of the bag.
1t is the belief of many that he put his
hand through this and by this means
united the string and opened the bag.

The address of Hon. Geo. d. Perkins,
of Sioux City, at the Grand opera
house last evening, was that of a life.
long republican, sincere and honest
man, seeking the nomination for the
governorship of Iowa, upon square
and fair presentation of republican
principles. He had magnificent au-
dience which was largely with him in
his presentation of the issues of the
pre-convention campaign. Indeed Mr..
Perkins was preaching sound doctrine
to the rank and file of the republicans
who have fought the battles of the par
ty in this city, county and district year
in and year out for the past decade.
The candidates clear, candid, conser-
vative and telling utterances upon
state and national topics went straight
home.
Mr.. Perkins put the personal feature
OF the present pre-convention cam
paign among Iowa republicans in a
nut shell when he said:
Governor Cummins has raised the
personal issue now before Iowa repub.
licans. 1t is that he (Cummins) will
save the state from corporation domi.

GOOD NEWS.

Council Bluffs Nonpareil: About as
good piece Of news as the public
could ask Is this from Pennsylvania
to the effect that there Ii to be no
strike In the anthracite coal fields.
Scarcely anything could bring joy to
greater number Of people unless it
would be the announcement that the
thing to mar the delight OF the &C.
casion is lingering suspicion that an
echo Of the slight disturbance that
has occurred will be heard next fall
when the winters coal is put in.
With the amount of coal they have
stored, the operators were entirely un-
justified in an advance Of prices be-
cause OF the five or six weeks Of idle
ness, but he were simpleton who
would predict the event Of such rea-
soning. The disturbance has been
sufficient to afford pretext for an
advance over former prices and In all
likelihood that pretext will be util-
lied somewhere along the line from
the mine to your coal bin. But 1t is
good news that there Is to be no strike.
A strike would have meant still high
er prices and possibly the untold mis-
cry and suffering that attends a coal
shortage
To the workers Is due credit that
strike is averted. Whatever we may
think Of their demands on the oper-
ators, made on the first of April, we
cannot fail to appreciate the self-con-
troll they now show in going back to
work without prolonging the contest
and with no immediate substantial
gain. There is victory in that sort
Of defeat John Mitchell Is tactician
Of no mean ability. BY getting his
men back to work now without a
strike he wins over to his side and to
their side a. great portion Of the pub
lie. Even that part Of the public that
has been disposed to sympathize with
the miners against the operators on
general principles, has not been able
to bring itself to regard the issue as
pressing one. The feeling has been
that the miners well might forego a
battle at this time. and now that this
is the course to be pursued by them,
they may feel assured Of a goodly por-
ton of public approval and of the sup
port of the people at future time
should a really pressing issue arise be-
tween them and the operators.

gency of his own political career, and

Iowa.
Mr.. Perkins spoke with feeling, as
he had right to, and after looking at
the man and listening to his presenta-
ton Of republican party history in
Iowa for the past twenty years. there
was not person in the audience but
believed that Geo. D. Perkins has been
shamefully misrepresented in this
campaign, in the attitude in which the
opposition has attempted to place
him with reference to the corporation
influence.
Geo. D. Perkins is man among men
and he stands before the people of
Iowa as candidate for governor with
personal and political record that is
consistent in it's sincerity, in It's up.
rightness and in it's sound republican.
ISM To say that Geo. D. Perkins has
not in the past, does not now and will
not in the future, stand and labor for
what he consistently believes to be for
the best interests of all the people, is

ish. The address was an appeal to save
Iowa republicanism from the wild and
wierd paths into which Mr.. Cummins
Is endeavoring to lead 1t. 1t was a
calm exhortation against turning re
publicanism into populism by melting
class hatred or calling for indiscrimi

as such or Of the rich as against the
poor 1t was an impassionate call to
republicans not to follow off after
