John'A. Kirkwood , a nephew of
Samuel Kirkwood , the war gov
ernor of Iowa , came into town last
week from the hay flats and made
a trip to Hot Springs , S. D. . fie
returned the latter part of the
week and started this week with
Sam Hudson and his neice , Miss
Woods , Mrs. A. Lewis and boys
and neice , Miss Grace Burnell , for
a trip down in Gregory county ,
S. D. They expect to be gone
about a month.
We print an article this week j
from the business men of Omaha
stating that they do not wish to
crush the unions. The people
generally we believe would not
complain if they did , if there is no
other effectual way of dealing with
them. We believe the people of
the United States arc getting tired '
of these strikes and want to see no
more of them. The strikers are {
not congregated for lawful pur
poses. They are insurrectionists
and should be handled as such.
They are becoming more and more
dangerous to the peace and safety
of our citizens and their property.
We do not deny any man the right
to quit his job nor the right of any
employer to employ just the man
he wants without consulting the
union as a guardian. 3
Last Tuesday night while Mr.
and Mrs. Breuklander were gone
to a prohibition alliance meeting
some one fired a shot through iris
front window , makinga round hole
as big as a half dollar. The bullet -
struck in the partition opposite the '
window. The little boy told the
folks % Wednesday morning fliat
some one had been shooting there
and that he heard the glass fall.
Some one may have done this by '
accident or it may have been done
in mischief. One thing that all
can agree on is that shooting pro
miscuously on our streets should be
stopped and effective measures
used to stop it. It endangers life
and property and encourages a
would-be tough clement in reckless
handling of fire arms. It is not a
good recommendation to our town.
t8. M. Church
