7, -Dissrunted Supervisors Lobby For
johnston Measure.

Ames, March 2o-Copnty editors Of
Iowa, in session at Iowa State College,
passed a resolution in opposition to the
Johnston bill passed by the lower
house Of the state legislature
which would do away with the state
highway commission system. and went
on record as in favor Of the present
Nav with such amendments as will
strengthen it.
This action came at the close of
thrilling speech by Harvey Ingham in
which the editor Of the Register and
Leader numerically fayed the county
supervisors Of Iowa and the graft
which wastes a large amount Of local
taxation.
Mr.. lngham was still warm from his
recent attack led on the Johnston bill
thru the columns of his paper and
spared no words in telling what ne
thought Of the system would leave
road matters entirely in the hands OF
county supervisors.
Boards incompetent.
Seventy five per cent Of the boards
of supervisors in this state could be
removed today for incompetency," said
Mr.. Ingham But the majority OF
them would resign before they would
stand trial and have their records
barred. In Polk county one Of our SUI
pervisors could be removed for drunk
enness and two more are grating on
their mileage, and conditions are prob
ably just as bad in other counties OF
the state he continued.
"The graft in this state is not in con-
nection with big appropriations for
state institutions. but is in the Incl
dental leaks and large amounts OF local
taxation wasted" said Mr. 1ngham.
and he produced the figures to prove
his assertion.
Every disgruntled supervisor OF
Iowa is either in the Legislature or
down there hanging around in the loft
he said while in the heat of his discus
sion Of road improvement.
Mr.. Migrants discussion of Iowa road
matters was the outgrowth of the cen
trail idea Of his speech which was that
there is simply one problem before this
state and that is the problem Of the rural
home. The solution of this problem
( lies in better schools and better facili-
tiles for reaching the schools, the
! churches and the markets. Iowa must
get out Of the mud to do this.

large and enthusiastic audience pres
ent and the debate was one of unus-
ually uniform excellence.
After lingering illness, which has
for weeks precluded all hopes Of re-
covery, Charles Kingdom gave up the
struggle on Friday, at the family
home, 1918 West street. Funeral SER
vices will be held at the home on Sun
day afternoon at $3.50, conducted by
Rev. J. NJ. Brown, Of the Methodist

Stafford, N. Y, on Dec. 3, 1856. With
his parents he came to Iowa and Grin
nell in 1871 and has made his home
here ever since. He was married to
Miss Carrie Legg. To this union six
children were born, three of whom are
still living: The Misses Achsa and
Beatrice and Mrs. Will Chedister, all
of Grinnell. Mr.. Kingdom is also sur
vived by his wife and his aged mother,
a sister, Mrs. ]. c. Goodrich, Of this

The influence and some Of the results
of the recent evangelistic campaign
were seen at all the churches on prayer
meeting night just passed. The num-
Der of accesions to the various
churches on the coming Sunday will
occasion some surprise and be cause
for much rejoicing. An even hundred
had come before the advisory board Of
the Congregational church and were
voted into membership on Thursday
evening. A similar experience is re-
ported from the Methodist church and
the other churches are sharing proper
tionately. One Of the hopeful signs Of
the times is the care being taken by all
the churches that those new to this
way shall be directed and shielded and
helped in every way to become strong
in faith and works.

ATTEMPTS TO k,DNAe CHILD.
Father se:zes saoe From Mothers
Arms at Traer and Lands in Jail.

special to meS-Republlcan.
Traer, March 20.-There was quite a.
sensation on Traer's streets Thursday
afternoon. A woman's screams located
the trouble in front Of the First Ma
tional Bank. William De Lorraine, a
young man, a son-in-law. of J. Hardin,
seized his child from it's mothers arms
and ran down street with 1t. The
mother screamed. the crowd pursued,
and the man upon being overtaken
gave up the child. It seems the couple
were married several years ago in Can
ada and the husband deserted the wife
when she was i'll and remained away
over year. The child of the couple
in the meantime had been adopted by
its grandparents. A month ago De
Lorraine turned up here but the wife
refused reconciliation, so he at
tempted to secure the child. AS he was
without funds he was taken to the
county jail.

DAMAGE CASE REVERSED.
Nice Points Of Law Involved in Actor
Appealed to Supreme Court.

Appealed to Supreme Court.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, March 20-The supreme
court decided q big damage case yes
terday and lawyers and judges will
read with much interest the long state
ments filed by the court when they are
available.
The case was that Of Weber VS.. c.,
r. !. & p. Railway. appellant, from Pot
tawattamie county. Weber was mail
agent injured when the Rocky Noun
tain Limited went off the tracks at
Homestead. just ten years ago. He re-
covered for damages in the district
court. The supreme court reverses,
opinion by Gaynor, with Laid, Evans
and Salinger concurring. But Deemer
and Preston file dissenting opinions
and Salinger dissents in part.
The big question in the case was
whether or not there should have been
admitted in evidence, on behalf of the
the railroad company, a certain affida-
Wit made by one Eric Won Kutzleben,
in which he confesses to having drawn
the spikes and derailed the train. Eric
was sent to prison, afterwards became
insane, and then, SO it seems, became
sane again. The court decision is to
the effect that as he was insane he was
therefore in the same condition as
dead man and his affidavit should have
been admitted on the trial, as he was
not available as witness. There was
some question, however, as to the
showing Of his recovery from insanity
and this was the occasion at least in
part for the dissenting opinions.
There was another nice question
raised, also, in that it was contended
by the railroad company the mail agent
is not passenger of the railroad. This
was left to the jury to decide.

liquor case. The Kirkwood house pro-

tanning a liquor nuisance tho it
was shown that guests at their tables
frequently ordered liquors and sent the
walters out to get the same or it came
in thru the medium of a taxicab man
who had desk in the corridor.
The theory on which it was, held
there was no guilt is that the walters,

else having to do with it were strictly
forbidden to deal in liquors.
