COUNTY CHAIRMAN RESIGNS.

ing for Place IN FATty.
Special to Times-Republan.
Harlan, July Civ. j. Davis, who
was recently reelected as chairman
of the Shelby county republican CEN
trail committee and has held that posi-
ton for eight years, called a special
meeting OF the committee yesterday
and resigned as chairman for this year.
His motive for handing in his resig-
nation was that certain Of the repub-
lican candidates for county offices
were not favorable to Davis as chair
man and demanded the central COM
mittee to ask Mr.. Davis to resign or
they would make no campaigns for
their office. The matter was laid before
Mr.. Davis and he called one meeting
a week ago but only the members Of
the committee living in this city at
tended and SO there was not enough to
accept the resignation. Yesterday
enough for quorum were present and
Mr.. Davis resigned County Attorney
Edward S. White, who was an active
young progressive leader in the last
primary, was unanimously chosen
chairman to succeed Mr.. Davis. Mr..
Davis will remove to California in the
near future. There Is considerable OPP
position to T. B. Koolbeck as secretary
of the central committee and it Is
thought that he may be asked to re-
sign also.

ONE OF SELF DEFENSE
Did Not Procure Indictment Of Gov.
ernor For Political Effect-Action Of
Grand Jury Came as Surprise, as II
Was Supposed Investigation Had
Been Dropped.
specia, to rimes-Republican.


Des Moines, July 21.-"There is just
one way in which the Carroll indict-
ment may become embarrassing to the
republican party and that is by de-
liberate effort on the part of the gov
ernor's managers to make it appear
that the friends of progressive candi-
dates on the ticket are responsible for
the actions of the Polk county courts
and grand jury
The above was the statement Of a
state official last evening. That an eff
fort will be made to show that the ac-
lions of Mr.. CoWnie, at least, We're con-
trolled by progressives is probable. AS
a matter of fact all that Mr.. Cownie
has done has been in self-defense, and
at no time has he acted upon the adj
vice Of persons interested primarily in
the recent primary campaign. OF
course it was asserted that Mr.. Cownie
was induced to defend himself for po-
litical effect. Such was not the case.
Mr. Cownie took no advice from any
political committee and acted entirely
without regard to political matters. His
attitude was that Of self defense.
What will the republican state con-
vention do? 1t can rebuke the grand
jury and courts or it can be silent.
Immediately there was talk as to
whether or not Governor Carroll would
retire from the ticket and not further
embarass the party. 1t is not probable
anything of the sort will be seriously
considered
The Indictment came as surprise.
Nearly everyone had supposed that the
whole matter would be dropped. 1t
was known that both the county at
torney and the judge in charge were
favorable to dropping the whole mat
ter. But some Of the Jurymen insisted
this would be just the same as con-
demning Cownie, and they had no ev-
idence Of any wrong doing on the part
Of Mr.. Cownie The only other thing
was to indict the governor.
1t was rumored last night that con-
certed effort would be made all over
the state to secure political advantage
out of the indictment Tor the standpat
element as against the majority or reg
ular branch of the party in the state
convention, that an attack would be
made in behalf OF the governor on the
regulars, that they would be held up
as having caused all the trouble, etc.
It was also asserted that the incident
would be made the excuse for the
standpats boMing the ticket In large
numbers, and especially boiling the
progressive candidates for office.

Mrs. Jordan's Story.


When interviewed Mrs. Jordan said:
II was very skeptical concerning the
report OF my husbands death when l
read 1t in the paper, for we thought
that 1t was he speaking when We were
first informed of the accident over the
telephones. l left my husband Tuesday
morning and returned to my mother's
home because he refused to support
me. He Is lazy and after working FOR a
few days quits HIS Job and then his
money goes fast. II l remained with
him would starve and / have returned
to my mothers home many times ana
told him l would not return TO hlin'
but on his promise to do better nave
done so. on Tuesday ! was eNasperateu
and made up my mind that | would live
with him no longer but would stay
with my mother. | could support my
self. but he refuses TO allow me TO 90
so. AT one time l was engaged as
teacher in a country school and he FOL
lowed me until finally lost the place
When ! left him the other day he evil
IDENTIFY concocted the story that he was
dead with a view OF getting me worked
up over his death and making an
appointment with him at some place
down town under the supposition that
he was a relative. He resorted TO q
similar measure once before in Moline
altho at that time he did not go so far
rs to give 1t to the papers"
BY many it is thought Jordan's real
motive In giving such tragic account
of his pretended death was TO so affect
his wife with sorrow and rcMorse at
leaving him that when she found he
was still alive she would be so over
joyed as to receive him back with open
arms
But the dastardly scheme failed to
work and II the authorities locate Jor-
dan they threaten TO lock him up

Waterloo, July 21-The most in
could possibly be resorted to by Il man
in vain effort to win back an
estranged wife. was that pursued by
Frank Jordan. Impers onating his
brother, A. +. Jordan, the man called
up his wife over the telephone and in
formed her that Frank had been killed
in the Silvis yards in attempting to
beat his way to Chicago on a freight
train.
Jordan also gave his own obituary
notice to the newspapers. He infinitely
had been killed, giving the details as
to how he was struck by the train, his
body run over and terribly mutilated-
Word of the reported death of Jordan
was not only sent to the wife, but also
to his aged parents in Lyons. and the
mother is now III a serious condition
as result Of the shock she sustained
upon receipts of the false news.
In giving the news to the papers, the
supposed brother gave full biography
he was born, when he was married, the
maiden name of his wife, and the
survivors, etc. He stated his brother
had been married thirteen months to
Anna Metheny and that she had left
him. He gave his former place of en-
ployment as the LaImore ice cream
factory and his parents names as Mr..
and Mrs. NJ. E. Jordan. of Lyons, Iowa.
After notifying the papers of his pre-
tended death, as also his wife and
neighbors over the telephone, at the
time impersonating himself as broth
er, Jordan even went so far as to I'M
personate his father, and again calling
up his wife, requested her to come
down town at once to meet him. Mrs.
Jordan recognized the voice at the
phone as that of her husband and af-
ter making him admit his identity, the
