TWO PICTURES.
A StrmiRO ContriiBt in the Life of Om
of Council Blull's' Citizens.
One of the old residents of this city
now enthusiastic in church work , am
of respected standing , narrated th
other evening at the Broadway Motho
dint church a change in his own mun
nor of living. Ho pictured two scone
quite glowingly. One of them wa
years ago , when he , a young man
was allured into the "Ocean Wave ,
which tlion stood on the present sit
of the Methodist church. In thi
"Ocean Wave" ho became channel
with the flash of a fast life , and wai
led into n life of gambling , which In
kept up for years. Ho finally sav
that there wore two sides to a gam
blor'H life , and that while one wa
brilliant and seemingly jolly , tin
other was shadowy and sad. Whil
in one of his dejected moods h
strolled into a religious meeting am
there became convinced that the ben
thing to do was to quit and lead a dil
fcront life. Now after the passage t
years ho wan standing on the old sit
of the "Ocean Wave , " and was prnj
ing and pleading nnd taking ran
among the godly. Ho said ho soldo !
entered this church without being n
minded of the two strange contrnsl
in his life , as suggested by the bit (
ground on which two such strange !
different buildings had boon erectc
on the same place ,

"FUN ON TUB BRISTOL. "
The Fun was There But no Brlstol-
I The Awarding of the Trumpet.
The promised entertainment by the
Jarrett and Hico company of the
above title drew one of the largest
nudieiKcs over gathered in Dohanoy's ,
and at times the utmost enthusiasm
was shown. The sta-0 , room was so
limited , however , thai no chance was
Hivan for thu ship named "Tho Uris-
tot , " i the cabin of which was laid
the Bcono of the play. This crippled
the entertainment greatly and led to
much disappointment on the part of
the nudioncc. There is little plot to
tno play , barely enough to string the
incidents upon , nnd to servo as an ex
cuse for dragging in sundry jokes and
ludicrous situations. Suveral of the
parts , cHpecially that ot Sheridan , as
Widow U'Bricn , excited much merri
ment.
As one of the advertising schemes
of the companyit was decided to give
a silver trumpet to whichever fire
company received the largest number
of votoH from those buying tickets to
the entertainment. An a result of
thii voting thu lilulf City company re
ceived 180 and the Rescue company
! M'f ) . The majority of lie gave the
trumpet to F. II. tiuanulln , the fore
man of the former company , who re
ceived it in person nnd responded ap
propriately to the presentation speech
made by one of .larrutt t Rico's com
THE DAUB WIRE MONOPOLY.
Details of the Recent Sale of the
Coon Patents The Farmers
Unlto for thor
The following is trom the pen of
lion. L. S. Collin , the agricultural
editor of the Ft. Uodgo Messenger :
\Ve have given in the agricultural
columns ijuito extcnsivo extracts
from different pens in regard to
the barbed wire nuiddlu , but as many
of our readura want to hear our own
version , wo herein in aa few words as
possible sot forth the facts :
The monopoly succeeded in buying
Mr. Coon , whom Messrs. Carpenter
it ( Siren has proteged for years. Do
wan an inventor , and like mont ouch ,
was poor. Carpenter it Given fur-
dialled him muana to experiment ; af
ter aoveral yeara' trial ho at laat
brought out ono of the best machines
for barbing wire , and had it patented
Ho also invented and patented ono
or two others. His bargain with
Carpenter it ( liven was to give them
each a one-third interest in thcso in
ventions , but there was no assign
ment of the patent in writing , as
there should have boon , and put on
record. Carpenter it Oiron pur
chased all material for making the
machines , building nnd power for
running thorn , and , in fact , were the
nionpy part of the firm , which firm
was in the name of J. H. Coon , with
which the Farmers' Protective asso
ciation contracted for making wire for
its members. As said above , this one
individual man , Coon , was approached
stealthily , and stubborn , without the
consent or knowledge of his partners ,
or any members of the association ,
ho sold himself and patents to the
monopoly for , as is reported , $12,000 ,
and agreed to deliver up to Woshburn
it Co all the machines. The plan
was , as wo now understand ,
to got posfumion of these machines in
the night time by stealth , and
deliver them to certain parties in Due
Moines , on the delivery of which he
( Coon ) was to receive § 6,000. An.
r other § 0,000 was to bo paid down on
the signing ot the contract and as.
sijjnnicnt of the patent , which inline
diatoly wont on record at Washington
Carpenter it Given , getting wind o
what was going on , iruardod tin
huildingnmking itinipossibloforCoon
to carry out his contract to deliver tin
machines. The assignment of tin
sale was then made to parties in 111 !
nois , making it possible to HUO out i
writ of replevin in the United State
courts and lake the machines , whereupon
upon a compromise was made witl
Carpenter it Given by giving thei :
K § 1,000 , and they allow the machine t
go and a decree to bo entered in th
court against .1. II. Coon , individ
unity and alone , tearing Carpunto
it Given and the farmer's protective
association perfectly free nnd at HI
erty to go on manufacturing wire th
same as though none had been mad
by thorn. The association now stand
of better than uror , both in the court
and in the mind of the general pul
lie. It has now mndo a string cor
> y tract with Carpenter it Given t
manufacture wire , and by the first c
March they expect to turn oiit a en
load a day nt least. Of course wo oj
poet to bo sued by thu monopoly
Arory well--wo are willing. The fai
murs of Iowa are nut going to sto
until the mat ter is fully invoatipa-'ed i
an honest court. In auuh a com
they have nothing to fear. In tli
meantime we are asked how are tli
fanners to get win ) . Not a poun
of wire made by order of tl
association can bo sold except only t
members of the nssomtion. lit
who are members ? Every farmer wl :
n sends his name nnd his dollar to tli
la secretary of the association nt DC
10 Monies , G , H , Crosby , becomes
y , member , nnd can buy wire at 7i con
10 per pound , delivered on the cars ,
s. Now , will every farmer in the coui
10 try who understands this , take hoi
ida and help with his name , his dolli
a- and his influence ? The real questic
is , will the fnrmorH of Iowa and tl
great west submit to the impositic
ya attempted by the monopoly ? Tl
yb. a principle at the bottom of all this
b. the thing to bo coiisidorod. Has
farmer the right to live and breatl
of thu fruo air that blows over Americii
itn soil ? If we tamely submit to this ii
( inh poaition wo seriously doubt if wo n
h worthy to breathe it ,
orn As the matter now stands , Was
n burn it Co , must contend with almu
ro. universal acntimont of Iowa. If \
ISO mistake not , ninety-nine out of-uvo
led ono hundred men in the west who u
ut- demtand the matter nro in sympatl
' ' ' with the farmers in this fight. Tli
of moat contemptible of nil method
recently used by the monopoly , givii
§ : ! 0,000 to buy a iloTco m court , just
Much a judgment as they might wish
to dictate by buying up by stealth ono
parly to the defense , has so enraged
the common sense of | Usticc aa hold
by all men , that n universal indigna
tion has been begotten that must
sooner or later fall heavily upon
the head of the monopolists. So low
down and abjectly did this reat ,
wealthy monopoly ( loop and crawl
along in its filthy slime to secure its
end , that to-day it is hard to find an
nttornoy in Iowa who is willing to
own ho had any hand nt all in the
transaction. The old saying , "give
thu devil rope enough and ho will
hand himself , " wo think in this case
would prove true. Farmers of Iowa1
lot us all bo ready to give that rope a
tight pull , for we expect to got it
around the right fellow's neck soon ,
Justice holds the ccales in the United
States courts yet in Iowa , and God bo
praised.
