"Reports from the precinct committee
men . throughout the county which nre
reaching me dally Indicate a much largT
republican majority In Pottawattamie
county this year than nt the Inst election."
was the statement of bounty Chairman
George S. Wright yesterday. The reports
of the committeemen. Mr. Wright stated
further, were being substantiated by the.
poll now being taken throughout the
county. While the result of the November
election- was rlever In doubt, everything now
points to an Increased republican majority
and the election o fthe republican county
ticket from top to bottom.
Tho speech of Governor Cummins at the
big republican rally at Avoca last Friday
has stirred up considerable enthusiasm in
the east end of the county and politics in
that section Is beginning to hum. I G.
Conslgney, the republican candldste for
treasurer, whose home Is In Avoca, was n
conspicuous figure at the rally there and
was given n rousing reception. The demo
crats are centering their efforts to try to
elect Brooks Reed treasurer and are willing
to sacrifice everything else, except mayhe
their candidate for sheriff. Mr. Constgney's
election, however, was assured from the
day he was nominated and reports from all
over the county show that It Is but a matter
of how big a majority. Mr. Conslgney has
long been one of the leading business men
of the east end of the county and Is not
only well known as such In Council Bluffs,
but throughout the entire state.
County Chairman Wright will arrange
shortly for a rally at Treynor, at which
Congressman Smith has consented to speak.
Several other meetings will be field later
throughout the county at Which State
Senator Saunders will be the principal
speaker. Mr. Wright ta In receipt of an
other letter from Secretary Dawson of the
state speakers' bureau giving assurance
that arrangements can be made for either
Senator Dolllver or Secretary Shaw to
speak In Council Bluffs. Mr. Dawson
writes, however, that the date, owing to
previous arrangements for both these
speakers, must necessarily be toward the
end of the campaign. Thle la perfectly
satisfactory to Chairman Wright, who was
anxious" that If a big meeting be held In
thla city and a prominent speaker secured
that it be towards the close of the cam
paign. So far the campaign has been to a great
extent conducted by the candidates them
selves. Ed Canning, tho republican, candi
date for sheriff, has everywhere throughout
the county met with a flattering reception
and indications are that he will poll a con
siderable number of democratic votes on
election day. The democratic county ticket
this fall la made up of men who with but
few exceptions are old office seekera and
there are a great number of democrats who
feel that new blood ehould have been In
fused Into the ticket Instead of nominating
the old perennial war horses who have
year after year gone down In defeat.

WILL LIVE INA WOODSHED
Wsrerly Millionaire .lres Flae Rest,
rirnre for Hospital and Moves
Into Shed.
DL IU QVE. ta.. Oct. 1l.-IIow many men
who have aoiuired a fortune by practicing
I the most rigid economy In their, younger
: days would abandon their palatial reel-
dence In "Id age to live in a woodshed?
That Is what Abraham Slimmer, known
throughout Iowa av the "Waverly philan
throplnt," Intends to do. The woodshed
which Mr. Slimmer will move Into will be
made Into two rooms, a bedroom and dln
tngroom. Ha will live alone and cook his
own meals. He declares that he will have
reached the true state of happiness In this
world contentment In simplicity.
During the past few years Mr. Slimmer
has given more money to charitable insti
tutions than any other man in Iowa. lie
Is said to be worth more than 11,000,000 and
It is his purpose to give this fortune In
various sums to the needy Institutions of
the state before ho dies. IJke Mr. Car
negie, he considers it a disgrace to die
rich.
Two years ago Mr. Slimmer offered to
give up his mansion at Waverly to the
Sisters of Charity to be used as a hospital.
The sisters were not in a position to ac
cept the offer at that time, but recently
they notified Mr. Slimmer that If the offer
still held good they would accept It. The
philanthropist renewed his offer and then
began the remodeling of his woodshed Into
a domicile. The palatial residence la also
undergoing transformation and when tha
improvements are completed Waverly will
have the first hospital In Its history.

Old Friendship Is Vnlnable.
The story of how a friendship of the long
ago came to the old of a worthy southern
woman In an hour of deep distress and
made It possible for her to rescue her
wayward son from the penitentiary has
been but partially told In brief dispatches
from Fort Madison. About two months ago
Warden Jones of the state penitentiary nt
Fort Madison received a call from a pale
faced, sorrowing woman, who said she
lived In New Orleans' and she a.ked for an
interview with ono J. W. Sanders, a young
convict of 18, confined In the prison. Tha
Interview was granted and for the flrst
time In six years mother and son stood
face to face and recognised each omtr.
it was a sad day for the woman. She told
er story -pathetically. She waa of a flr.o
.otithern family. In which there had been
a number of professional men of high
standing. In New Orleans. The family was
In comfortable circumstances and lived nt
ease with the world., Thulr son was
promising youth In the high school, when
at the age of 12 he suddenly disappeared.
He left no clue to his plana or purposes.
Tho parent sought for him long and vainly
and finally commenced to advertise In the
newspapers. They Inserted advertisements
all over the country and spent much mjney
In this way. Then they formed connection
with detective agencies, t'hey sept cut
thousands of circulars containing a de
scription of the boy and his portrait aiid
offering a reward for Information concern
ing him. Many times they thought they
had a clue to the boy, but each time they
were disappointed. They apent nearly all
their small fortune In this search, nit
had resolved to prosecute It for all time.
One day a detective In the Plnkerton oinco
In Chicago scanned the portraits of the
men In the Fort Madison penitentiary and
thought he detected the face of the lost
boy. Investigation was made, which showed
this to bo true, and the mother was In
formed of the fact.
- Efforts to Seen re Release.
The New Orleans mother, while over
joyed at finding her son even though he
waa a convict, set about to secure his re
lease. Here is where she waa fortunate. In
that she had enjoyed tha acquaintance of
Governor Stephen B. Packard when he
was in New Orleans as the governor of
Louisiana in the reconstruction period. She
recalled that Oovemor Packard is now a
resident of Iowa und hu urcn for many
years and she immediately sought him out
and found him ready to assist her In every
legitimate way. She appealed to him for
direction an1 the appeal was not In vain,
for he showed her tho way to secure tha
release of the young man. She obtained
Interviews with the Judge and the county
attorney and the injured parties.
Tho history of the crime was brief.
Young Sanders was caught, with two other
men, in possession of certain stolen silks
taken from tho Glllett store in Atlantic,
Ia. They were arrested and Indicted for
conspiracy to commit larceny. Sanders
Immediately pleaded guilty to escape tho
disclosure of his Identity and the others
stood trial, but were afterwards convicted.
The evidence tended to show that Sanders
wss guilty of llttla more than being lit
bad company. He had received a three
year sentence. This was in December last.
Warden Jonea reported that he was a
model prisoner and worthy of clemency.
Tho judge signed a pet'tlun fo- hla releaae.
The county attorney it '.st refused to
sanction it, but later endoraed the petition.
Mr. Glllett was ratufled to have Sanders
released. Governor Cummins signed tho
suspension of sentence and tho boy was
rcleaatd September 1!.
Mrs. Sandera, though that Is not her
name, which Is concealed because of her
prominence In her home, stated whl'e In
Pes Molnea that she had completely
changed her view of the character of Iowa
people. She had had a southern woman's
notions of the people ot the north, but she
had discovered that Iowa people, and es
pecially Iowa officials, are sympathetic and
that they have hearts that may be touched
by a mother's love. She waa high In her
praise of all who were concerned In the
affair and went home with the young mau
very happy. Indeed. She atated, however,
that but for the friendship of Governor
Packard ahe felt that she would hardly
have been able to accomplish her mlablon
to Iowa.
