am forced to the conclusion that tho
defendant was practically driven away
from home. and that he was fully justi-
fled In leaving 1t, as life there for him
had become not merely extremely diff
ficult, but impossible. After the plain
tiff had threatened to shoot him he
was justified in notifying the mer-

ANNIVERSARY OF BIG FIRE.
Iowa Falls Destroyed Thirty. Seven
Years Ago Today.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls. July 14.-Thirty-seven
years ago today, the business part Of
Iowa Falls was swept by flames and
totally destroyed. It was the afternoon
Of July IA, 1874, that fire broke out
in the Harrison meat market located
on the south side Of Washington
avenue and the flames spread rapidly
from building to building and block to
block until the whole business district
and some Of the residence portion Of
the town had been swept away. The
weather was hot and sultry with a
strong wind Of almost gale velocity,
blowing from the southwest. With no
fire protection aside from bucket bril-
gades. the town was at the mercy Of
the flames. Only two blocks OF the
business district escaped and many
were left homeless and penniless by the
conflagration, for such 1t was to those
who then resided in Iowa Falls. But
few Of the men and women in active
life then are on the field Of action now
but those few who recall the terror Of
that day tell many stories OF heroic
bravery on the part Of many men and
women who battled bravely all the af-
ternoon to save something from the
flames. But with commendable spirit
the town was soon rebuilt and from the
ashes of that menora BILE day has arisen
a city without peer for its size in the
state.

A couple Of days ago Agent Sankey
of the Rock Island was called out by
railroad men who wanted to know
what was the matter with the water
pressure. There was only four inches
of water in the tank and a couple Of
engines were standing dry. An exami-

break in tho crane beneath the
surface and the water was all running
out under the tracks. Several thous-
and gallons were wasted before the
break could be fixed. One train was
delayed half hour waiting for water

DEFEATED THE MEASURE

After a year or more OF drumming,
campaigning, hurrahing and plenty OF
free advertising, woman suffrage has
gone down to defeat in California
The women and . lot of men lent
untiring interest and effort to this
campaign. Many men, as was shown
were opposed to the movement.
They simply did not get out and
shout their beliefs from the house
tops, they merely voted as they be
lieved and the women will be shut
out for the time being in California
1t is a tremendously wide-oper
question. Many a mar does a lot o
quiet figuring. The woman tells hin
her story, he listens with respect
takes kind heed, lets the matter res
without argument and drops his vot,
the way he believes it to be the bes
| interest to woman and mankind.
The question will come up in Ne
vada and the ground will be gone
over in the same manner. 1t IS like
~ that the quiet vote will also be II
| evidence as it was shown in Callfor
MIA. 1t is evident that the sister stat'
is not yet ready to take the chance
and will allow the experimental stag
TO be worked out elsewhere.

NEVADA'S DUTY

Yesterday Nevada did her duty
and without hesitation when Judge
harrington ordered a couple OF s;ti-
zens cxtradited to Utah to stand trial
on an infamous charge. This is the
first case brought up III this court
and the result was most certainly
satisfactory to the citizens. The
Government had a most plain case
Judges part in ordering the defend
ant I % the other state for trial. I'm
der the law he had to fix the bail,
which was done. 1t was a case oil
unusual interest from the fact that
the Government is taking a hand III
the traffic of women for immoral
purposes from one state to the 9th
er. With a precedent set, as III this
case, there will be some lively side
stepping on tn part OF the dive keep
ers and dance hall men to keep out
o fthe clutches Of the government
State Courts move slow, too many
loop holes have been found, trials are
indefinite problems. but with the
Government it is different.
1t is hoped the good work perform
cd yesterday by Judge Harrington
will put the fear of law so deep II
the hearts OF the creatures who fol
low this traffic that they will move
bag and baggage from this state.
The prostitute will ever be OF
earth. but the man who acts as a pro
curer, lives from the tainted money
and walks among men, will take no
ticc. The word has gone down til,
line that it is sure, and greater care
will be exercised and it is hoped tina
men will abandon the unlawful call
ing. The sentence that Reeves re
Gives will be worth watching for
when he hits the Utah court.
