PRIMARY TALK IN. JASPER.
lNeMtnn Iournal.l

1--WE must have good, strong and
effective state primary law passed by
the next Iowa legislature" said one
citizen to another in our hearing last
week. Good enough said another,
''but another law is needed, and that is
one that will make it a penal offense
for q candidate for any office in the
gift of the people to give money, gift,
promise of pecuniary, or other assist
ance, or any other kind of inducement
to influence or obtain the vote OF an
other; and the recipient of such COM
pensation or favor should also be pun
ished by fine or imprisonment. Two
such laws would go far towards MAX
ing cleaner and better politics. ana
would give a poor man fighting
chance to become candidate for Of
flee, something he does not have at this
tirne.'' This conversation is not unlike
others we have heard of like import
and shows that the average voter is in
favor Of radical changes in the polit1-
cal modes now in vogue.

WASTED SYMPATHY FOR H1sEY

WASTED SYMPATHY FOR HISEY.
INT Vernon Record.]
Mr.. Hisey has received a good deal
of sympathy from the press Of Iowa
that is misplaced. Mr.. Hisey is not in
need of sympathy or not nearly as
much as some former office holding re-
publicans. He was not elected, but he
had the time of his life. Here in Mt.
Vernon he made about five dollars a
day with his talks, besides being given
the best of everything by the students.
He was sent to the Altoona for bed
and board, and was invited to adj
dress the literary societies. In fact he
was treated like lord. And while it
is a fact that his condition is pitiable,
he does not know it, but on the other
hand enjoys himself to the utmost, GER
tainly more than he would had he been
required to remain in Tama and work
around by the day.

Freight CONGESTION.

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-"I have not had an
offer of the presidency Of the Illinois Central
Railroad and a man cannot decline some
thing that has not been offered to him."
smilingly remarked q. j. Grammer, vice
president of the New York Central Lines,
on his return to-day from New York.
Did Mr.. Hartman or anybody else in
New York discuss with you the question OF
your succeeding Mr.. Fish as president Of
the Illinois Central?"
NO, that question has not beer brought
TO my attention either officially or otherwise.
/ never have seen Mr.. Hartman and nobody
representing him has talked to me about the
Illinois Central presidency. My trip to
Pittsburg and New York was solely on ac-
count OF traffic matters OF the New York
Central Lines. i cannot understand how
the report originated that / was being con-
sidered for the presidency Of the road. So
far as l know there is no foundation in fact
for the report that will go into the Illinois
Central"
, Speaking Of traffic matters, Capt. Gram
mer said:
4 find the congestion Of traffic at Pitts
burg is ten times as bad as at Chicago and
New York: it is three times as bad as it
is here. j see little prospect for relief until
after November 20 or the close OF lake
navigation. On account Of the lower lake
and rail rates all the big jobbers are order
ing their shipments by that route when
possible. Cars from New York and Eastern
points reach Buffalo, Erie n other lake
ports loaded with merchandise, where re-
turn shipments Of grain are awaiting them.
The result is that the cars are kept in active
service between the lake ports and the East
and We cannot get any Of them out here"

Pittsburg Hears McCrea VIII Succeed Him
when New York Terminal IL Opened.
PIrrsBURG, Oct. 27.-It is said here that
Henry c. Frick, who has been mentioned
ne the successor Of President A. J. Cassatt
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. has passed
the word that he will not have the position
under any circumstances. 1t IL reported
that James McCrea, now first vice-president
OF the Pennsylvania lines, will become
president Of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The retirement Of Mr.. Cassatt as nominal
head Of the Pennsylvania will not be an
nounoed for one year at least, according
to stories told in Pittsburg, although Mr..
Cassatt is TO have an indefinite leave OF
absence soon and will go South for his
health.
Samuel Rae OF Philadelphia, now third
vice-president Of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, and the nan in charge Of the work on
the North River tunnel and the new Penn
s~ylvania terminal in New York, will assume
the duties OF president while Mr.. Cassatt
remains the nominal head.
1t is said to be the desire OF President
Cassatt to remain at the head Of the railroad
until the tunnels and the New York station
are opened. He has said tha with these
two feats accomplished he would consider
his life work al a railroad man we'll rounded
out, and he wished personally to conduct
the celebration which will be held on the
completion OF these works.
That his successor will be McCrea is as
serted positively here. Mr.. McCrea, besides
being an efficient railroad mar, il a ~favorite
Of Mr.. Frick, who is the heaviest individual
stockholder in IN Pennsylvania Railroad.
He is also very close to Mr.. Cassatt.
Less than a yea g Mr.. McCrea had a.
opportunity u take the presidency OF one
OF the big Western trunk lines, but refused
