a society for the preservation of it's
data of such character. Mr.. Harlem
attended a meeting Of librarians while
at Lincoln, and there saw much valu-
able historical matter gathered by the
Nebraska State Historical society re-
lating to Pottawattamie county, Sc
cured in connection with studies of the
early history of western Nebraska, and
it was this that impressed the matter
so strongly upon his mind
Upon his return to Iowa, Mr.. Har-
len took the matter up with Council
Bluffs people, and preliminary efforts
were made to act upon the sugges-
ton. The matter took definite shape
last night, when an organization was
perfected by the election of the fol-
lowing officers: President, John M.
Calvin; vice president. Charles M.

Several valuable suggestions We're re-
ceived also from Warren S. DUNCAN,

PLAN DAVENPORT DAY..
Reported That Pastors Devote Day to
Law Enforcement.

Des Moines, Nov 2S.-Iowa is to
have a Davenport day in every pulpit
of the state.
1t is proposed that each pastor in
the state take up one day and devote
the tenor of his sermons on that day
to the cause and results Of the recent
Davenport trouble. These people be-
lieve that this is an opportune time for
the ministry of the state to press a
temperance lesson upon their congre-
CATION They ask. that the Davenport
affair be thoroughly studied by the
ministers, and the entire affair be
gone into that the people of the state
may be made coznizant of the present
conditions.
They will also ask the ministers to
command Governor A. B. Cummins
and other state officials for their po-
sition in demanding law enforcement.
1t is more than probable that this
state day for Davenport will meet with
favor by the clergy because of the fact
that many are making study OF the
affair and have been furnished with
much literature and press clippings.
The temperance people claim that
the state is more torn up over this
affair than any ever before in state
history, and that in the event of these
happenings Iowa is ready for state
wide temperance day with Davenport
as a model of the unlawful city.

results for Matilda Observation-Disclosures

lover abandoned a happy home at La
Crosse, Wis, to become the wife of
F. Christensen, a painter of some
promise. The parents of the girl dis
approved of the match. They died
shortly afterward, and in the probate
court it was found that the girl had
been cut off without a penny.
There was an immediate change in
the conduct of the young husband.
He lost his artistic aspirations and be-
came a painter of barns. He lost his
love for his fond wife, If he ever had
any, with the loss of the prospective
fortune. After taking her to Fort
Dodge, he abused her. she says, and
left her to subsist and care. for their
child thru her own labor. She left Ft.

Captain Kulp to Attack Per-
sonnet of Court Martial as
Prejudiced
AS WHOLE AND INDIVIDUALS
Colonel Lincoln May Be One Excep-
tion-kuIp May Carry Matter to the
Civil Courts Before Case is Ended
Has Money and Many Influential
Friends at Davenport.
Special to Times Republican.

Davenport, Nov. 2S.-Captain kulp is
prepared to make a hot fight for his
honor as soldier before the court
martial appointed by Governor Cum
minis to try him for disobedience of
orders, neglect Of duty and conduct un-
becoming an officer and a gentleman,
because he did not stop the Davenport
prize fight.
The court will be challenged as q
whole and each member will be chal-
lenged as an Individual, because Cap
tain Kulp fears he can not secure
military justice. A friend of Captain
Kulp in speaking of the matter said:
Governor Cummins is the prosecuting
witness, he also appoints the court
and he will review the proceedings
when the verdict is reached. kulp
has no chance for an impartial verdict.
Again Captain Berkebile, Of Cedar
Rapids, named as judge advocate to
try this case will sign the charges
against Kulp, altho he is according to
military law. attorney for the accused
as well as the state. This is a very
odd and peculiar proceedings and never
done in the army when it can possibly
be avoided. Again it is reported that
Captain Berkebile stopped off at Aines
on his way to Des Moines Tuesday to
confer with Col. James r. Lincoln.
president of the court, altho the court
has not yet met. Colonel Lincoln is
reported to have refused to talk of the
matter with Berkebile on the ground
that it would be improper Colonel
Lincoln may not be challenged by Cap
tain kulp, altho it is probable as kulp
wants to bring out the fact that Gov
ernor Cummins is both prosecuting the
case and naming the judges"
1t is likely that Captain kulp will
take his case into the civil courts In
some form before it is ended. as he
has money and the backing of many
people of Davenport.
