A storm of applause greeted this re-
mark and the chief sat down.
Il think that the chief deserves a
great deal of credit for that remark,
said Mr.. Hickey. 1T is very seldom
that a chief of police refuses to talk"
Laughter.
D. W. Anderson followed with a
short talk thanking the gentlemen for
their attendance and remarks.
Rev. Brewer of the A. NJ. e. church
responded TO request for a talk on
The Clergyman in politics" After
a few Introductory sentences he op-
ened his big guns and demanded posi-
lions and offices for the members OF
the club in return for their support
of the diffeent candidate. Concluding
he said: Il have met all the candf
dates and like them all personally, but
i must say that the big fellow looks

Loud and vociferous applause follow

President George Mott, of the Lin,

be private meeting called for the
colored voters of the city some time
in the next few weeks.
d. W. Anderson moved that the
speakers of the evening be rendered q
vote of thanks for their attendance
and it was objected to on the grounds
that it was no more than right that
they should show some attention to
the colored voters of the city. After
a warm discussion the motion was car.
ried. however. and it was so ordered
by the president.
AT the conclusion OF the program,
refreshments were served.

That Champ Clark club will be
formed In Keokuk if the present plans
of ]. 0. Boyd are successful, is as
sured. After conference with num-
Der of leading democrats he has come
to the conclusion that there are
enough Clark supporters in this city
to further the interests of Clark's
candidacy, If properly organized.
Associated with Mr.. Boyd in the
work of organization are Senator E.
?. McManus, County Attorney Theo-
core 4. Craig, and G. n. Vermillion. A
meeting viii be held within the next
few weeks to complete the work. and
get down to a basis of campaigning.
Mr.. Boyd has been life time
friend of Speaker Clark and is very
enthusiastic in regard to Clark as a
presidential prospect. Mr.. Boyd is
from Missouri and naturally has a
pride in the candidacy of the presen.
speaker of the national house.
Iowa is not agreed upon any demo-
cratic candidate for president, some
of the prominent leaders in Des
Moines favoring Woodrow Wilson. 1t
is believed, however, that this section
of the state favors Speaker Clark.
Anyway Mr.. Boyd does and he is very
efficient in the ranks of his party and
is gathering some very able assistants.

Gates delightful musical play in
which John Hyams and Leila Mcintyre
are co-stars, relates the adventures of
Harry Swifton, bachelor motor en-
thusiast who has a mania for break
ing village speed ordinances. Some
time before the play opens he is injur-
ed in an automobile accident on a
country road and carried into the
home of a Quaker where he is nursed
back to health by the daughter of the
4 household, Lucy Medders. All his
bachelor ideals are shattered by Lucy,
for she has captured his heart. She
and her father make Harry a visit
Just before their arrival at his coun-
Itry home, "Doye Crest" he has had
another accident with his motor. On
the way to the station to meet his
sister, "Cuddle' Swifton, and her
friends, home from boarding school
for their vacation, he has bumped in
to another machine containing a lady
and gentleman. The ladys hat is
blown off and lights in the steering
gear of Harry's machine and is de-
stroyed. He returns home to find
"Cuddle" and her friends there.
"Cuddle' is angry at him and her
sweetheart, Pigeon Williams, for
their apparent neglect. While they
are giving their excuses the lady, Mrs.
Bombastino, whose hat it was that had
been destroyed by tho accident, and
the gentleman-he titled admirer,
Count Schnigglefitz, arrive. They de-
mand the restoration of the hat, just
as her husband, General Bombastino,
who happens to be Harry's lawyer,
comes to the same place. Mrs. Bonn
bastino and the count are hidden in
rooms. There Is also milliner,
Daphne, who has been telephoned for
| the purpose of making hat. and she
turns out to be an old flame of
Harry's. She also is hidden. At this
arrive. There is much obvious
comedy evoked with the aid of many
doors. The generals wife is finally
rescued from her embarrassing i'm
prisonment. Three duplicate hats
have been secured by as many differ
ent persons. One by Harry, and by
Mrs. Bombastino, and the last one by
Lucy. Incidentally all is explained
Mrs Bombastino gets her hat and
Harry wins his little Quaker sweet
heart.
"The Girl of My Dreams" will be
seen here at the Grand opera house
tomorrow evening. Don't fail to get

Mayor ]. F. Elder and Commission
Candidate T, J. Hickey, disagree on
the fund with which the city CON-
missioners paid off the debts of the
city last year They aired their differ
ences 1T the meeting of the Lincoln
club ;, ST night at the colored Mason's
hall on North Fifth street.
After being introduced by y. W. An.
derson. Mayor Elder arose with a
haadi osmaps and blue prints and
in resi- ense to requests for informa-
tor atous the railroad franchise said:
AT tn election held in this city two
years ago you all know that the city
was given over to the commission
form of government Before that time
you knew only the democratic form
Of government, that is, you thought
YOU had a choice of representatives
while the fact of the manner is that
you had no choice at all in the matter.
The aldermen were chosen among the
favored few of dictators of the differ
ent wards"
Explains Railroad Ordinance.
Mr.. Elder then went on to explain
the railroad situation in Keokuk, say
ing that the present administration
has been criticised in regard to thei,
evident dislike of publicity. The
fact is that this administration has
been given more publicity than any
other in the history of keokuk. In
the matter OF the railroad franchise
everything has been given out that we
have had ourselves and can be had
by anybody who wants it by dropping
a postal card to the city offices at any
time. The proposed ordinance when
boiled down simply means that the.
city gets a great deal that 1t wants
for something for which it has no earth
lyuse. The railroads are to discontinue
switching along the water front and
along the approach to the bridge and
lose two tracks of their present yards
in exchange for two stubs and are to
make new yards and do all OF their
switching there. A penalty is to be
imposed for all downtown violations
Of this act. There is no good argument!

road ordinance and therefore will not
attempt to explain anything in rela-
tion to that. Neither will attempt to
criticize the present administration.
Ill leave that to you. Pm candidate
for commissioner, but not soliciting
votes. I'll also leave that to you. That
! believe in your intelligence and abil-
ity to cast your votes in an intelligent
manner I can only cite you to the
fact that men of your race are respon-
sible for the hero of San Juan Hill,
being able to scare all other presiden-
tial possibilities. If am elected Z

that your race gets more representa-
ton than it has had in the past. My

Paying Too Much Taxes.
You are paying too much tax as
you are we'll aware and want to en-
phatically deny that the present adj
ministration paid off the city indebted
ness. referred to by Mayor Elder. for
the simple reason that in the sinking
fund that he speaks of there was only
$4,000. I'll also leave that to you. 1
