ENDS in FIZZLE
Men. Cowed by Martial Law. Re-
turn to Work - Arrested
Men Not Released.
lRr Cahle 10 The Trlbune.

London. Jan. 11.-Ar kilograms from
South Africa Yesterday were virtually
unanimous in declaring the railway
strike almost at an end. Most of the
men who went out have now returned
TO work, and those who did not go on
strike were at their jobs as usual.
The precise position as to the general
situation is not so clear, however. and
as there is a press censorship under
martial law the statements current may
not tally with the actual facts.
At the mines the position is said to
be improved. but at several OF them The
white stats seem TO he still on strike.
Generally speaking, however, the stu
alton has undergone a remarkable
change for the better, and II can now
be predicted with tolerable certainty
that the complete collapse Of the syn
dicalist revolutionary movement II

ment is not relaxing It's precautions,
and martial law is being strictly en-
forced. Hundreds of arrests have been
effected in all parts Of the Union ana

strikers everywhere are returning 20

eral Louis Botha, was still in evidence

sixty-two members Of the Typographical
Union were arrested while meeting. The
charge against them was contravention
of the provisions Of martial law. The
men had just passed resolution to re-
sumo work.

More Rocks Ahead.

Boone News-Republican The deci-
sion of John w Rowley OF the Keo-
sauqua Republican to shy his castor
into the ring and contest the second
term of Governor Clarke may rock the
Republican craft sufficiently to cause
a capsizal in 1914 Mr.. Rowley bases
his candidacy on the unfortunate dis.
agreement OF public policy in the
matter of capitol extension. He made
a name by bringing suit to test the
constitutionality of the action of the
legislature, but lost in every respect.
A candidacy based upon digsatisfac.
ton is never a very healthy one. Gov.
ernor Clarke has made good official
and the Republicans are disposed TO
give him the customary second term
no matter whether they agree with
him on the capitol question or not or
course Mr.. Rowley has a perfect right
10 become candidate, but the fact
that he has done so is bound to cast
"a doubt upon the unselfshness OF his
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1914-01-01

fight against the capitol extension.
We cannot feel that Governor Clarke
is deserving of being sidetracked
because he carried out the mandates
of the legislature, and are sorry to see
any candidacy based on discomfort,
which is likely to still further in
crease the schism in the ranks of the
Republican party of Iowa.
If there ever was need for unity
among Republicans, it will be in the
year 1914, when every ounce Of Re
publican strength will be necessary to
keep the state in the Republican ranks.
If there must be struggle at the pri-
mary. let it end there, not only as to
the governorship but as to every 9TH
er office. The sovereign people have
the right to choose whom they wish
for candidates, but every voter who
takes part in the primary is morally
bound to vote for the successful candi-
date.

kEokuK AND 1914.

The destiny of any city is in the
hands of the people who go to make
up the community.
Progression or retrogression de-
ponds upon the action or inaction OF
the people.
Inertia brings civic paralysis; ami
nation civic advancement.
Cities are not prospered beyond the
worth of their constituents.
Communities point with pride
only to those achievements that have
cost time and money and patience.
Advancement is made only after
obstacles have been removed
Keokuk's future is in the hands of
Keokuk's citizenship and the best and
only amalgamated organization to for
ward this city is through the Keokuk
| Industrial Association
| Larger results were hoped for; err
rors no doubt we're committed but
they are incidental to every business
whether private or public. And al
ter admitting all Of its failures there is
no other agency to look to in the pro-
motion of the city's welfare.
| On the other hand the achievements
and benefits Of the Keokuk Industrial
Association far overbalance it's de-
fects and with past experiences and
stronger support there is no reason to
doubt its efficiency and usefulness.
Accomplishments are the product of
| hope-not despair
Cooperation will yield a Greater
Keokuk and 1914 holds the bright star
of promise. To that end the loyal,
liberal and steadfast support of the
Keokuk Industrial Association is es-
sential 1t is imperative if success
follows.
| The achievements of all cities in an
industrial and commercial way are
practically all secured through or
ganized effort Keokuk's vehicle of
organization is the association above
referred to and 1t is not the organiza-
ton of any one man or set of men. It
| is your weapon to fight with when
keokuk's good name or chance of adj
vancement presents itself Give it
your happy, cheerful, hopeful help.
Keokuk has passed from the old Keo-
kuk into the new Keokuk.
Even the most pessimistic refuse to
admit that 1t will ever return to the
old decadent days New blood is in the
veins of commerce and strong hands
hold the throttle that will guide new
industries to this city and before the
year ends the wheels of new factories
will be humming a merry song of
prosperity from the Keokuk Industrial
tract.
And don't you forget it.
