Murphy then for his action Now they
are wondering whether or not Mr..
Murphy is not q pretty astute politician
and quite long-headed.
At the same time the friends Of
Cady Chase are very active. They
are here at the opening of the legisla-
ture in full force. They claim that
Mr.. Chase is far from defeated and
they are really smiling and acting as
tho they were real confident. They
claim to have some surprises up their
sleeves that they may spring most
any day Politics is active among the
Tenth district legislators just at this
time.
The republican members of the leg
islature representing northern Iowa
districts are greatly interested in the
federal positions. They say that they
represent, as they believe, fairly the
prevailing republican sentiment in the
entire judicial district They are going
to express their sentiments in regard
to the matter and do 1t right away.
A great many of them are DESTROYS
that there shall be harmony between
state and federal officials in their part
of the state ard that 1t would not be
right to have all federal Offices Civ
en- to persons not in full harmony
with the party In Iowa.
Before the senatorial caucus Is held
the sentiment of the republican men,
bers of the northern Iowa districts will
be made known in a way that cannot
be mistaken. A caucus has already
been held and 1t has been determined
by these members that they will not
permit the matter to go by default.
Did Judge NJ. ]. Wade, OF Iowa
City, sign statement to do all In
his power to deliver the Iowa delega-
ton for Bryan for president in 1908
before Cato Sells consented to with
draw from the race for national COM
mitteeman from Iowa? There is
well defined rumor about the hotel
Hobbies in this city to the effect that
he did and that the statement Is now
under lock and key in the possession
OF George F.. Rhinehart of this city.
Confirmation Of the rumor is hard
to secure for obvious reasons. for as
might be supposed everybody connect
ed with the matter Is unwilling to
talk Tor puDltCiltlOu. mere was CoH-
siderable surprise at the time when
Sells withdrew considering his stead
fast friendship for Bryan and we'll
defined belief that he would be named.
Judge Wade had the endorsement OF
the Iowa democratic state central
committee, but it was the national
committee that is to make the selec-
ton. The Iowa committee was even
divided In It's support and G. w. Mil
Ter OF waverly, who would support
anybody but Cato Sells admitted that
Sells had the personal endorsement
of w. j. Bryan.
There was belief at the time that
Sells was on the inside track and
likely winner and hence the surprise
when he withdrew. Now comes the
report that he only consented to with
draw on the written promise OF Judge
Wade to do all in his power to de-
liver Iowa to the Bryan column In
1908, and politicians are therefore not
having hard work to believe that the
report has a foundation In truth.

case Of Mrs. Whitaker VS.. the city
Of Grinnell, occurred yesterday at the
city hall commencing at 8 O'clock,
before Judge Byron w. Preston. Mrs.
Whittaker's attorneys are Boyd &
Bray. This case is an injunction pro-
ceeding, in which Mrs. Whitaker Is
attempting to escape the payment of
the cost of the new cement sidewalk
placed to grade in front Of her prop
erty, on the ground that the same was
illegally placed there. Mrs. Whitaker
also has damage suit pending which
will be tried by jury next week, in
which she claims to have been DAM
aged to the extent Of several hundred
dollars by reason Of the embank-
ment being placed in front Of her
property to bring the sidewalk to
grade, thus throwing her property
several feet below the level Of the side
walk grade. 1t is an important case
to the city, not alone on account of
this suit, but because OF numerous
other like instances where heavy
filling was done to bring the sidewalk
to. grade, where the property owners
were very much dissatisfied, and upon
Judge Preston's decision in this case
may hinge several other suits.
There are no new developments in

$4,000, but 1t is earnestly hoped that
this may be applied on. the Rockefel-
