PARTY SPOKE AT PRIMARIES
Republicans Of Peoria County Begin
Their Campaign at Once
Comments of Judge LOvett in Accept
ing Se<rctaryship of the County
Ommittee-Sackett Sup
ports the Ticket.

CHARLES :. Deneen has been renOmi-
mated for the office of governor of
Illinois by Il substantial majority. No
Republican who participated in the
primary of last Saturday should do
aught than give Governor Deneen the
most cordial support for reelection.
This is what the friends of Richard
Yates would have expected of the
friends of Governor Deneen. had the
former been successful. 1t is. there
fore, the part Of honor for them to
give Charles s. Deneen the same
measure of support that they would
have given Richard Yates had the lat.
ter been nominated
The party has spoken at the recent
primaries and it has declared it's
choice. The nation is governed by ma.
same rules
The Republicans of this city, this
country and this state who have read
history, know Stevenson, the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor, we'll 1t
is unfortunate for the Democracy that
he should have been nominated lust
because he was best known among the
Democratic candidates for the nom-
nation, having been coupled with
Cleveland in one campaign for the
presidency and with Bryan in an
other. His career has been that OF
the practical politician, who does not
regard principle so closely that he Is
not willing to sacrifice it for personal
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
We know his history in the troub-
lous times of the nation, when the re-
public was threatened and he cast his
lot with those who were undermining
its foundations. No soldier of the
union will assist him in his effort to
come to the rescue of the Democratic
party on this occasion.
During the entire campaign the
Quincy Wing said nothing regarding
Charles S. Deneen that prevents it
from giving him cordial support Time
and again it stated, even in the heat
of the preliminary battle, that It
Woutu De Will Ii. vi SHOULD lie receive
the nomination. 1t now calls on all
it's friends to stand firmly by the NOM
inee. Let us show our loyalty to the
nominees of the Republican party and
its principles in way that cannot be
misunderstood.
Over and above all individual inter-
ests are those of the whole country
and the Republican party. Men come
and go, brt the principles that make
the Republican party and the repub-
lie great go on forever. We can GER
tainly gain nothing at any time by
giving encouragement to our oppo-
nents. 1t is best to let them Know
at the offset that we will not weaken,
not desert our colors.
Let Governor Deneen's supporters
in the recert primary campaign call
meeting for the ratification of the
nominees The Republicans of Adams
county. without regard to previous
preferences, will be glad to join them.

OLSONS PATCH UP
 THEIR DIFFICULTIES

That over-worked bringer of prom ises and hamburger of peace, the dove, is at present earning it's sustenance by Auttering about the home of the A. P. Olsons. A brace of lawyers, assisted by Judge Reid, officiating as second-installment cupids, created the job for the dove, and last night husband and wife found shelter be- meath the same roof-tree.
 For several years the Olsons have dwelt apart, one from the other, and discord has reigned supreme over their destinies. At last the wife hied herself to Valdez and instituted legal proceedings to obtain separate main tenance. She scored first blow when her attorney, Edmund Smith, ob- tained an order of court directing the husband to pay her temporary alimony and attorney fees.
 A night or so ago the husband at tempted to re-estalbish connubial re- lations but his wife declined unless he deeded to her certain of his property. This he refused to do, andit appeared as though the dove would not be called on for a time. Yesterday. however, after Olson had communed with his lawyers, Ostrander and Don oboe all concerned met in the cham bers of Judge Reid, the husband agreed to give the deed, the wife agreed to forgive the misdeeds and the peace protocol was ratified.

WOMAN WRITES CLEVER
 BOOK ABOUT ALASKA

Ella lligginsOn, the well-known au- thor, has turned her graceful pen to Alaska, and written book that among it's many other qualities is timely for Seattle and the A.-Y.-P exposition. In Alaska, the Great Country" the author mas combined the historical, descriptive and nara tive in her own clever manner, and the result is a work that is unconsci- ously instructive, while affOrding en- tertainment for those who read only with this end in view.
 The romance of the vast north has taken deep hold on Miss Higgnson and the camp fire tales of heroic deeds of men and women arc accounted in their primitive contrasts.
 The cook is published by Macmil- Ian company and will doubtless have an extensive sale in the east, where it will stimulate interest in the land of gold, which will redound to the success of the exposition.-Scattle Star.

LAPS PEACE TALK
 TO BE DISCOUNTED
State Department Breathes Harmony;W Department
 Plans For Strife

Washington, Dec. 7-Despite the fact that through the medium of the state departments of the two coun- tries there has between the United States and Japan been established a program of peaceful solution of any problem that may arise, this country Is taking extraordinary measures in precaution of hostilities. In this lat ter phase of protection-craft the United States is working without ostentation, but with much vigorous application.
 All the time that Secretary Root has been exchanging formal communi- cations with the officials of Japan, the war department has been equally busy in fortifying the forts of the Pacific and those of the island pos sessions of the United States. Thous- ands of tons of explosives have with in the six months just past been sub merged to protect against hostile vessels the harbors of San Francisco, Portland, the Puget sound ports, and even the smaller cities along the Pacific coast.
 Toward the protection from un- friendly warships cargo after cargo of submarine explosives has been shipped to the Philippines, Guam and Hawaii; land Notifications are being strengthened, and nothing that will tend toward impregna- bility is being left undone. Also the war department is inaugurating extraordinary educational methods in those branches of the service having to do with coast defense and to this purpose recently there was sent from New York to the Pacific two mine laying boats, one destined for Puget sound and the other for the Philip pines.
 In view of the foregoing facts it is by the skeptically inclined declared that the government is placing no great credence in Japan's present attitude toward peaceful alliance, and while the efforts of the state de- partment are approved, the efforts of the war department are highly commended.

THE HARDEST OFFICE TO FILL
When You Vote For Auditor Vote Fol
Henry Heying

Being a successful German merchant
for twenty-one years in Fort Madison
ought to thoroughly qualify man to
be auditor of Lee county-and it has
made Henry Heying especially compe-
tent TO hold that county office.
That the county auditors office is
the most difficult to fill in Lee county
is demonstrated by the failures that
nave occurred in trying to fill it with
very good men, but men not entirely
trained in the peculiar way required
to be good auditor. Some men have
escaped conviction of INCOMPETENCE
by employing a deputy who is thor
oughly competent-but why not have
an auditor who can fill the office HIM
self?
Henry Heying is that man.
The long time that he has been
engaged in the furniture business has
made him one of the most successful
and substantial business men of Fort
Madison. The way he has conducted
himself has given him the confidence
