Federal Office Seekers Must Wait

Unless some member of the Iowa
delegation in congress changes his
mind, the matter of dispensing the
federal patronage in Iowa will go
over until after the next election, as
the entire republican membership
met last Friday in response to call
issued by chairman Cummins and by
a vote of to decided not to make
the appointments at this time. Those
who voted in favor of settling the
matter now and being through with
it were Senator Cummins, repre-
sentatives Hubbard, Haugen, Good,
Woods and Prouty. Those who
voted against it were Senator Ken
yon, representatives Pickett, Town.
er, Green, Kendall and ! Kennedy.
The terms of the present marshal,
collectors and attorneys will expire
this month, but they viii be- peraait-
ted to- hold over until after the cleo
ton next fall, as several of the mem
bers urged that if the appointments
were made now it would jeOpardize
the election of some of the members.
The progressive element of the party
has been urging that the question be
settled now and there will be consid-
cradle dissatisfaction over the action
of the senators and representatives
who are trying to avoid the respon-
sibility of making decision before
the next general election.

Old ne STEAL CATILEl
Corwln Buchanan, Prominent Stock
Shipper of Near Lamont, was
Arrested BY Mt. Ayr Sheriff.

Corwin Buchanan, a we'll known
farmer and stock buyer living in;
Riley township, Ringgold county,
was arrested by Sheriff Terrell of Mt.
Ayr, at the depot in Lamont last
Thursday evening, on the charge OF
stealing cattle. 1t is alleged that
nine head of cattle were stolen from
the herd of w. H. Barnes & Son and
ten head from the herd of Noah
Mosier, and Virgil Barnes and Noah
Mosier on learning of the disappear
ance of their cattle went at once to-
St. Joe and succeeded in locating a
part of the cattle, one of them being
a thoroughbred registered COW own
ed by Mr.. Mosier. The cattle had
been sold to the Hammond Packing
Co., and part of them had been
butchered, but the owners were able
to identify the hides. The arrest Of
Mr.. Buchanan on the charge of steal
ing cattle has created somewhat Of
sensation, as he is a prominent
citizen and with his brothers has
been engaged in breeding and ship
ping live stock on an extensive scale.
Buchanan was at once taken to Mt.
Ayr where he at once gave bonds
in the sum of $4,000 with his father
M. F. Buchanan and his brothers as
sureties, after waving preliminary
examination and being bound over
to the grand jury. Buchanan claims
he will be able to show by his checks
that he bought and paid for all the
cattle he shipped.

Death of John A. Kalbach.

Mrs. J. R. Bashaw received word
Sunday of the death of her brother
in-law, Mr.. John A. Kalbach, of Os-
kaloosa, at Hot Springs, Ark, on
Saturday. Mr.. Kalbach had gone
to the Springs about three weeks
previous for his health and reports
received from him by his family were
very encouraging and his condition
was not regarded as serious. Mrs.
Kalbach and son, Warren, were at
the depot at Oskaloosa ready to start
to join Mr.. Kalbach at Hot Springs
when a message was received telling
of his sudden death. Mr.. Kalbach
was we'll known by many of the old
er residents of Leon, his wife being
a sister of Mrs. Bashaw. He was
one of the wealthiest and most prom
inent citizens of Mahaska county.
His funeral will be held at Oskaloo-
sa today.
