J. A. Evans, Who Ran Away When

West Liberty, Feb. 2o.--Much inter-
est was occasioned here by the return
home of jackson A. Evans, well-re-
membered by old residents of the place
as boy OF IA when he ran away from
home fifteen years ago. Since then his
parents had never heard from him,
and he had been mourned as dead.
Long ago they gave up hope that he
would return to occupy the vacant
chair that has reminded them ever
since of the bright lad who so suddenly
disappeared from their home.
Last evening stalwart stranger
alighted from the train at the West
Liberty station, and inquired for Mr..
and Mrs. Jerry Evans. The elder Ev-
ans is an old veteran, one OF the best
known residents Of the city, and every
one could point the way. Some thought
the face of the stranger strangely IA
miliar, and when they learned later
that he was Jackson A. Evans, and
that the surprise OF his parents had
been followed by happy reunion at
the Evans home, they knew why the
strangers face had seemed to call up
memories Of the past. He was the

Bill, However, Will Be About as Out

for Prohibiting Combinations Of

Text Of the Measure.
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Feb. 20.-All members
OF the sub committee engaged In worn
on the primary bill declare that the bill
is not yet ready and that some portions
OF the bill are still In doubt. Appar-
emily some new difficulties have arisen
One member antimated that some con-
stitutional Questnons have been
raised in regard to some of the
provisions which majority OF the
committee desire to have incorporated
In the bill. All the main features OF
the bill were outlined ten days ago
but the committee Is having some
trouble In getting the details worked
out An a manner to satisfy oil the
members. And 1t Is the hope OF every
member. OF the subcommittee tnat Q
bill will be framed that will meet the
approval of all.
The bill by Stillman prohibiting com-
binations for the purpose OF HAlns
prices OF grain passed the house yes
terday with just one vote against IT.
Balluff OF Scott county. There are
grain dealer members of the legislature
but not one Of them voted against the
measure. There were 80 votes for II
which shows that some ducked.
From the standpoint OF the farmer
the friends OF the bill consider that the
bill Is one of the most important az
this session Of the legislature. II ~
passes the senate and becomes law II
can be reasonably supposed to operate
In lowe as effectually as 1t did In Ne
braska where 1t put the grain trust
out of business entirely
Just one change was made IN the
measure in the house committee or
agriculture from the bill as drawn by
the author. The provision that one
half OF the fines assessed should go te
the persons furnishing evidence leading
to a conviction was stricken out by the
committee and the provision made thai
one fourth the amount shall go to the
county attorney who secures a con-
viction and further that 1t shall be one
OF the duties and obligations of every
grand jury at every session to inquire
and investigate whether there be any
violations Of the law.
The bill complete as 1t goes to the
senate is as follows:
Sec. 1. That 1t shall be unlaw-
full for any person, company, partner
ship, association or corporation en-
gagged in the business Of grain dealing
or operating any grain elevator, or In
buying, selling, handling, consigning,
or transporting grain to enter into any
agreement contract or combination
with airy other grain dealer or grain

alton OF association of grain dealers.

which was approved by the state
Teachers Association. A commission
consisting OF two good lawyers and
some school men will be authorized to
make investigation and to report on
thorough revision Of the school laws
so that they may be Ineligible Inc
school men of the state generally are
for this movement.
Senator Elerick reports that the peo-
pie down in his district are enthusiast
tic for the movement to establish ag-
ricultural high schools In the state. and
that at Fairfield strong committee
has been named to come to Des Moines
and assist in having an appropriation
made for the beginning OF this work.
Letters have been sent out to influen-
tial men In all parts of the state urging
them to back up the movement. 1t Is
possible that in case any action Is
taken 1t will be to establish four or
more of these schools in the state, and
one will be at or near Fairfield or
Mount Pleasant.
There may be a fight on the Saun-
ders bill relating to lost executions
The bill provides that II 1t is shown
by the filing of an affidavit that an
execution Is lost, the clerk Of the dis
,trict court shall issue another. The
bill passed the senate with some
amendments and went over to the
house, but the amendments stayed be-
hind and the house amended it further
h,y cfvflty1tr nj oh,
robbed 1t Of some of its strength. Now
it is proposed to have the house re-
consider 1t and send 1t back to the
senate for the amendments to be at
tached. The purpose OF the bill is to
provide a way in which II an execution
of a district court for the sale of prop
erty to pay a Judgment becomes lost
there will be way to have It replaced.
Some lawyers claim, however, that
such thing is Objectionable II the new
affidavit issues merely on the affidavit
of someone that the old one Is lost, for
sometimes an execution is tied up by
injunction or otherwise, and duplicate
might be issued and the property sold,
defeating the ends of the law.
An excursion is to be run to this
city from Oelwein, Waterloo, Cedar
Falls and Marshalltown, for the ben
eft of high school pupils in that sec
ton who wish to see the legislature in
operation. The excursion will be run
over the Great Western February 81.
