MANY MOURN WEAVER
Numerous Expressions of Regret Be-
cause of Demise Of Soldier and
Statesman = Active in Democratic
Party During Recent Years.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Feb. 1.-THE sudden
death of Gen. James 3. Weaver in this
city caused more expressions of re-
greet than anything that has happened
for a long time. In recent years Gen
eral Weaver had become familiar
figure in Des Moines. His son, James
B. Weaver, Jr., and his daughter, Mrs.
Harry Evans, live here, and the old
general has visited here many times
each year. An index Of the affection
in which ne was held by the people of
the state was shown three years ago
when the oil portrait OF General
Weaver was presented by his friends
to the state and was accepted at a
special session of the joint legislative
assembly. The addresses on that oc-
casion were filled with earnest lauda-
ton OF the man. General Weaver had
in recent years spoken at almost every
big banquet of the democrats and al
ways his addresses were interesting
and filed with the spirit OF optimism
which always pervaded his life.
The aged widow Who had been with
the general constantly during his BRIEF
illness is bearing up bravely under the
burden of grief which came upon her
with such startling suddenness.
Besides mis- widow, General Weaver is
survived by two sons and FIVE daugh-
tiers. They are j. B. Weaver. Jr., of
this city; Abram c. Weaver, of Bas-
soma. Alb. Canada; Mrs. Charles Sui
isn5erger. OF CoIfaS; Mrs. II. C. Evans.
of Des Moines: Mrs Ruth Denny of
Des Moines: Mrs. Albert r. Ketcham m,
of Seattle. and Mrs. Edward Cohrt, Of
Traer, Iowa.

Davenport, Feb. "A movement has
been started among the employees OF
the Rock Island arsenal to favor the
acceptance of the Taylor job cards un-
der protest until the committee Of COL.
gress appointed to investigate the sys-
tenn shall have reported. 1t is said tina,
this announcement will follow a cou-
ference between a committee and Col

evening.
If the report Of the congressional
committee condemns the Taylor sys-
ten the employees feel then they will be
justified in refusing to use the cards
If the committee fails to oppose Their
contentious and they have been dis
charged for cause they would have
considerable difficulty in getting
around the civil service rule which
prevents any one so dis charged from
being re-employed at the arsenal.
Many Old Employees.
1t is probable that this stand will be
taken by large number of the en-
ployes, altho some may adhere to the
original determination to strike if the
cards are issued. A large percentage
of the arsenal workmen are men who
have been in the employ of the govern
ment for twenty-five or thirty years or
even longer, and are property owners
in the 1ri-cities. Employment at the
arsenal has been considered the most
desirable in the community and many
of the men are anxious not to inju-e
their standing.
Labor trouble at the arsenal has
been infrequent, the last having oc-
CURED about fifteen years ago when
the machinists had some difficulty with
