RIGHTS OF OTHERS.

The insolsnce and grapsing greed
of tho Washington Water Power com
pany in taking absolute control of
Coeurd Alene lake and backing the
water over the meadow lands of farm
ers around the shores, and covering the
lands Of others In the river valleys,
Is equaIed only by its offers to settle
with some of the people injured. 1t
is said that the company has made
offers of 80 an acre for land that Ia
worth 400, and tells the farmers
that 1t is anxious to settle because 1t
intends to raise the water several feet
higher in the lake. This seems to
be a clear case Of big corporation
riding over the rights Of the people
without regord to any but it's own
interests There are those in Idaho
who have rights which even this mon
opolistiC company will be forced to
respect.

nenression In lion.


For the first time in more than two
years really serious doubts are enter
tanned as to the future of the iron and
steel trade Beginning with sudden
revival late in 1904 from the depression
which began in the latter part OF 1903,
says the Iron Trade Review, the iron
and steel trade has had a period Of
prosperity which 1t is not straining the
point to say has never been equaled.
Early in this period there were some
doubts as to the genuineness Of the
movement, but soon all doubts were
dispelled. At no time in 1905 was
there serious question as to the future,
and in 1906 there was hesitancy only
for a brief spell during the second
quarter, when some southern iron pro.
ducers saw 1T to sell iron into the fu-
ture at as low as $13.
The situation now is radically differ
emit. For two months all iron and steel
markets have been very quiet The
contrast with the corresponding period
Of last year is most marked.

VAN buren, COUNTY
SUPERVISOR IS
ACCU SED
SENSATIONAL SUIT is BROUGHT
AGAINST ONE OF THE OF
FICIALS BY POLITICAL
ENEMIES

Keosauqua, Sept enlarged with
wilful misconduct or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
of Office, T. L. Workman, for nearly six
years a member of Van Buren, county's
board Of supervisors, will be tried next
Tuesday in an effort to remove him
from office.
The sensational suit is brought
AGAINST Mr.. Workman, a republican.
by Messrs Isaac McCracken L. A.
MoCracken, Of near Bentonsport; s.
M. Brown of Keosauqua, and T. w.
Boyer Of Bonaparte, all said to be
democrats.
James H. Mcsurley Of near Keosau-
the four men. who are prosecuting
the case. Mr.. McSurley it was who
brought suit against ex-County Treas
urer McGrew on account Of county
deposit in the Skinner bank at Bir-
minsham when it failed. This suit is
still fresh in the memory of all Van
Buren, county people. 1t seems that
the Mcqrew oase the Pennington
bridge case and this case are in q
measure interviewer tozether.
Some of the allegations against Su-
pervisor Workman are that he bought
things from the county, farm and sold
things to the county farm that he
overcharged on his per diem. mileage
and postage: that he allowed himself
and other members OF the Doafd the
amount Of their expense while attend
ing state conventions Of various coun-
ty officers that he voted for and all
lowed livery rig bill for McGrew and
his associates for Sunday trips made
by them to the county farm to hold
religious services; these and other al
legations are contained in the petition
to remove Mr.. Workman from his Of
flee as supervisor.
The all important question In such
cases is, did he do these things inten-
tionally, willfully. rnaliciously, corrupt
ly?"
Mr. Workman. who has always borne
very good reputation, denies soma
of the allegations, as to some of the
others, he explains his motives. claim
ing there was no intent to violate any
law: that he did what he thought he
had legal right to do; that what he
bought from the county. for instance,
was fully paid for. and for that which
he sold to the county. he got only what
it was worth
Every ALLEGATION in the petition to
remove him from Office is answered by
Mr.. Workman,
The case will be watched with In
terest by every resident Of Van Buren,
county. The attorneys for the prose-
cution are Mitchell & Hunter of OF
tumwa The attorneys for Mr.. Work
man are Walker & McBeth and E. L
McCoid of Keosauqua.
