The primary on Monday closed one
of the most intense contests that has
been carried on in Iowa since the
law was passed For a few days
before the primary the presidential
contest between Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Roosevelt was somewhat forgotten in
the enthusiasm of the voters of the
state for their favorite candidates.
The chief contest was the preferential
vote for United States senator be-
tween ex-senator Young and Senator
Kenyon. Mr.. Young was classed as a
conservative and Mr. Kenyon as pro-
gressive, and the issue was one of
principle rather than of a personal
character, although toward the close
of the campaign the criticism in some
instances bOrdered on issues of per-
sOnal nature. Senator Kenyon won
the prize by majority Of practically
10000. His strength was more pro-
nounced in the northern part of the
state although in the southern par.
his vote was larger than his most san
guine friends anticipated. In addition
to the progressives large number
of standpatters voted for him and a
few of the progressives voted for Mr..
Young. The younger element of the
party. especially, rallied to the sup

though it is surmised that some dis

life by reason Of slight misunder-
standing with one of the other chill

to his grief-stricken parents, the
mother being overcome to such an ex.
tent as to require the services of a

and soon a large number Of friends,

gram-Many Attend.
ADDRESS BY HON. J. P. CONNER
Opera House Filled to Capacity
Grand Army Congratulated for
Services Rendered.

Decoration day was observed this
year in Denison in the usual manner.
The program commenced with the
memorial sermon at the Presbyterian
church Sunday preceding the S0th day
of May, an account of which appeared
in last weeks paper. The 30th day
of May found the weather ideal and
nothing to interfere with the carry
ing out of the program. About 10
o'clock in the forenoon, friends of the
soldiers appeared with automobiles
and conveyed them to Oakland ceme-
terry, where the program for the fore
noon was carried out. A large num-
ber of citizens in carriages and auto
mobiles attended the ceremonies at
the cemetery, which lasted in the
neighborhood of one hour. The pro-
cession returned to the city in time
for lunch after which the program for
the afternoon was carried out. A
company from the National Guard at
Carroll gave a drill in front of the
opera house, which attracted great
many people.
At 2 o'clock the exercises arranged
for the afternoon commenced at the
opera house. Rev. J. H. Senseney
delivered the opening prayer, after
which a drill was given by number
of school children. The drill was
a beautiful thing and greatly enjoyed
by the large number of people in the
hall. The music for the occasion was
furnished by the Barborka orchestra.
1t was remarked that the opera house
was never packed with people as it
was on this occasion. The male quar-
tet, consisting of Professor Humphrey,
DR.. McConnaughey, Ralph Cassaday
and DR.. Plimpton, rendered a
patriotic song, which was very much

Clarke, of Dallas county; Professor
Holden, of Ames, and Mr.. Proudfoot,
of Indianola, and resulted in victory
for Mr.. Clarke. For secretary of
state there were three candidates and
the prize was won by Ed Chassell, of
Plymouth county. For auditor of state
John L. Bleakley, of Ida county, was
re-nominated by safe majority. For
lieutenant governor Harding, of Sioux
City, won over his competitors. Mr..
Ketchum, of Marshall county, was re-
nominated for railroad commissioner
by $4,000 majority over Chris Otto
sen, of Humboldt county.
1t looks as though Dunn had won
the nomination for governor on the
democratic ticket, although later re-
turns are swelling the vote of John
T. Hamilton. The other state offices
on the democratic ticket were not in
contest.
There was something of a spirited
contest in this congressional district
between Frank P. Woods, the present
incumbent, and Paul E. Stillman, of
Jefferson, Greene county, both of them
progressives. It was a contest in
which the conservative element of the
party exercised the privilege of in
dividual preference. 1t is evident the
Cummins machine was behind Mr..
Woods as he has been a devoted ad.
herent to that faction of the party.
The primary vote indicates he was re-
paid for his allegiance to the machine.
Mr.. Stillman has a degree of inde-
pendence in thought and action. He
has every reason to be proud of car.
rying his home county against Mr..
Woods by about 1900 majority. His
large vote at home has called atten-
ton to his personal popularity with
his neighbors. 1t can only be ac-
counted for by his integrity, ability
and fitness to discharge the duties of
the Office.
There was not much interest taken
in county matters except in few in.
stances by the democrats. Mr.. Bell
of Dow City, easily won out over Mr.
Burch for county attorney, so that
the contest for county attorney in No
vember will be between Mr.. Klinkel
and Mr.. Bell. Hagge and Nehls won
out on the democratic ticket for super
visors The vote in this county was
very small, perhaps not half the votes
in the county being polled.

is BOUND OVER TO GRAND JURY
DiaboIical Act Takes Place Evening
Of Decoration Day-Said to
Have Been Intoxicated.

The most disgraceful and humiliat-
ing thing that has happened in our
community occurred on the evening
of Decoration day One can scarcely
contemplate it without a feeling Of
horror. 1t seems that while Mrs. Alex
Christy, widowed mother, living in
the south part of town, was watching
over the dead body of her daughter
who had died in her home that day,
her son and brother of the deceased
sister, came home from up town where
he had spent the day and, without
any warning, and apparently with no
excuse, assaulted his mother with an
axe, striking her upon the arm and
shoulder and otherwise wOunding and
lacerating her. After this diabolical
act he escaped from the home and
was found later in the neighbOrhood
where he was taken into custody by
the marshal and placed in the city
jail The next day, assuming that he
must have been insane to perpetrate
such a deed, he was charged with in
sanity and taken before the insane
commissioners. After all the evidence
had been submitted and considered
by the commissioners, there did not
appear to be sufficient evidence of
insanity to warrant his being held
and he was discharged and set at lib
erty. Soon after his release he was
arrested, charged with criminal as
Esault upon his mother. At hear
ing before w. c. Rollins, magistrate,
he was held to the grand jury to await
the action of that body. If the action
of the insane commissioners in dis
charging him was proper, then this
degenerate son should be prosecuted

The address of the day was deliv-
cred by j. P. Conner and this was the
concluding feature of the program.
The speaker congratulated the mem
bers of the Grand Army for the serv-
ices they rendered their country in it's
hour of peril and spoke of the hard
ships endured and privations suffered
by them during the civil war, and
spoke feelingly of the departed heroes.
He said it was not the pay the SOL
diers expected to receive for their
services when they enlisted that

of the highest patriotism. When
they realized that an assault was
made upon their country's flag and
the perpetuity of the union threatened

could have been averted if the people
of the nation had but submitted to

the southland. Rather than submit to
such a disgraceful concession the
young and noble sons of the north
with full knowledge of what war
meant, offered their services and lives
to save the union. He pointed out the
cost of establishing the government
and the sacrifice made by our forfath'
ers, not only in their means, but in
their services and lives. He com

By the arrival in Prescott yester-
day OF John Kelly. president Of the
Pacific Copper Mining company. and
c. w Mitchell, first vice president
the question Of introducing reduction
works to handle the large tonnage
on the dumps and exposed in the
drifts, is to be taken up for consider
alton, and it is believed will be fav-
orably acted upon. In fact, IL is the
purpose OF these officials to investi-
gate conditions and plan for the
equipment during their present trip
of inspection. The plans under con
sidcration call for 100 ton plant
for the present. which will be erect
ed at the mine.
In speaking of development Mr.
Kelly was enthusiastic over the re-
suits accomplished in recent months
mentioning especially the fine show
ing that had been made in virgin
ground from the 450-foot level, the
point reached, as well as in cross
cutting and drifting. Ore bodies Of

the undertaking should pass from a

this being made possible by the
practical work done the past three
years Mr.. Kelly will remain at the
camp until Monday. when he will

Mr. Kelly is en- route from the Fl

is the president, and states that on

paid stockholders. which aggregates
nearly $4,000 this year. Notwith-
standing the revolution is under

be operated and no trouble is cx-

Mr.. Kelly is a successful miner
and business man, and his associa-

fortunate one. and assures the sue
