Claud r. Porter Meeting.
Claud R. Porter, candidate
for the position of United States
Senator of Iowa, who had an
appointment to address the cit
liens Of Logan last night, stop
ped off in this city, by request,
and at 5 o'clock p. M, addressed
a large assembly of our people,
from a stand erected at the cor
ner of End and Erie street.
Mr.. Porter is a favorite with
our people, having addressed
them on a former occasion, and
by his frank, fair and manly
manner of presenting his SUBJ
ject he won the esteem of his
heares and made for him MANY
peronal friends who are always
pleased to hear him, and when
the election comes, will be glad
to write the name of Clande R.
Porter on their ticket for Sena-
tor. The only way to solve the
present question of "standpat-
ter and progressive" is to drop
both candidates of these factions
and unite on Claude r. Porter,
who if elected, would be fair to
all, and would reflect honor on
the State of Iowa, and heal the
split new existing in the ranks
of the G. O. P. in Iowa.
We cannot give even a synop.
sis of Mr.. Porter's remarks, but
leave hearers to give them such
weight as they think them en-
titled to, and render their final
judgment at the polls in next
November.
After the address, C. "A. Boil
ter, who came down for that
purpose with his auto, convey
ed Mr.. Porter to Logan, where
he addressed a large audience
in the court house in the eve
ming.
The cooler weather promised
arrived this morning. Morn
ing forecasts state that there
was heavy frosts in Northern
Montana, Idaho and various
parts of Canada. Frost here
could not do much damage as
the dry weather has matured
everything earlier than usual

The Woman Lodge.

At the Woman lodge Satur--
day night after the business

Gale responded in a very appro-
pirate manner, showing their
appreciation for the token of
friendship.
An elaborate banquet was
served, followed by music and
dancing.

A great deal of this trouble is due
to money other than that involved in
the monthly allowance. Just prior to
the death of the author OF treasure
Island mis- father died I'm Scotland

to Mrs. Stevenson on her husbands
death, and on her death it will go to
her son. Lloyd Osbourne. Naturally
should he die first his wife and chill
dren would come in for the money
This, Mrs Osbourne's friends insist, is
just what Mrs Stevenson wants to
prevent. To that end they assert she
has gone so far as to bar Mrs Osbourne
from the house, and has kept her chill
dren away from her at different pc

Mrs. Osbourne herself is a woman of
culture and refinement and is possessed
of some literary ability. She per-
sistently has refused to discuss the
rumors which from time to time dur.
ing the past few months have circulat-
ed among her friends and acquaint-
ances. When asked yesterday as to
the truth of the stories told, she did
not deny them contenting herself with
this statement:

NEW YORK, December 21.-The Rt-
Rev. Henry Coddington Potter, bishop
of New York, the other night told
Chose Koike. consul general of Japan
to San Francisco, and distinguished
company of Americans and Japanese
how, when he was visiting Japan some
years ago, he became so fatigued ny
climbing the steps leading up to the
Buddhist temple that he had to order
Manhattan cocktail when he returned
to his hotel.
There is just one fault l have to
find with the temples of your country,
my dear consul general" said Bishop
Potter in the course of his remarks
and that is that, in many cases, the
steps approaching them are so long
and wearisome that they leave the
traveller exhausted at the portal.
''One day the Rev. Perry Grant, who
sits at my right here, and who was
my travelling companion on my trip to
Japan, and I climbed ever so many
steps to see the temple at Yokohama
When we returned to our hotel l was
worn out.

Manhattan cocktail. Now, you know,
I had no idea he knew what I meant
by Manhattan cocktail, but l was

KAISER TAKES HAND
IN HARDEN TRIAL
GERMAN EMPEROR SENDS LIEU
TENANT TO MAKE NOTES OF
EVIDENCE.

BERLIN. December 2O.-Spurred to
action by the revelations in the Har-
den-Von Moltke libel suit, Emperor
William today took part in it. secur-
in" for the Imperial perusal a full
and impartial report of the proceed
ings, through Lieutenant Preertner
Won Der Hoelle of the Fusileers.
The lieutenant was permitted to re-
main in court after the public had been
excluded in order to convey to the
Emperor the full details of the try
Ing ordeal to which Prince Philip III
Gutenberg was subjected during the
secret session this afternoon, when he
remained for three hours under cross
examination.
Among the other witnesses heard
today was Frau Won Elbe, whose tes-
timony was also suppressed.
Following her Count Won Moltke was
examined. though not at very great
length.
Colonel Otto Won Moltke, cousin Of
Count Cuno. was the only witness to-
day to the hearing of whose testimony
the public was admitted
He knew Count Cuno perhaps bet
ter than any person living he said, and
had found him h be a man who exer-
cised an elevating influence upon those
with whom he mingled, that his iniu-
epce was never a lowering one, and
especially if his companions were of
lower level of thought and morality.
He had been present at the house of
the Count a number of times when
Prince Zu Gutenberg was "A guest, bu;
had never heard any conversation
other than that of educated gentlemen
Colonel Moltke read a letter from
Colonel Won Haescler denying a state
ment made by Harden that he would
only repeat in secret remarks which
had been made to him by the General
about Count Cuno Won Moltk.e
The colonel holds sinecure in the
State Lutheran Church, being head of
the cathedral chapter and superinten-
dent of church properties.
Herr Bernstein counsel for Harden,
examined the wit ess closely as TO
whether he or his cousin had taken
the least notice of the articles of
die Kunkunft,' until Emperor Will
liam took the action which resulted in
Count Cuno Won Moltke resigning the
position of military commandant of
Berlin. The colonel admitted that Count
Cuno had handed in his resignation on
May 18th.
He declared he had taken his cousin
word of honor to Harden denying the
insinuations published; Harden had not
accepted this communication and the
Count then formally challenged him to
fight duel on foreign soil. Harden de-
clined this proposal by letter.
At this stage of the proceedings the
Public Prosecutor announced that
Prince Zu Gutenberg, accompanied by
his two sons. was in the adjoining
room. He was so i'll, the Prosecutor
declared, that he begged to be heard
Immediately and the suggestion was
made that the defense might wish to
put questions to the Prince which the
father would not desire his sons to
hear

then moved, in the interest of morality
that the public. including the news

retired. In five minutes they returned
and directed the bailiffs to invite all
persons unattached TO the court TO
leave the chamber.
