rioncos as to how the power of "The
Truth" quiets the roughest cases on
our pniries and in thu largo cities.
After singing by the audience , Uev ,
_ ' . F. Uresco conducted n normal class
; esson "Abraham" which proved intei-
csting and profitable , mid which

sontod , Enforced and Lived. " , Tim
discussion was opened by 0. N.
Caldwell , who was followed by Mrs.

vice as to how the truth shall bo pre
pared so ns to make it palatable to the
scholar.
A stranger eutjecoted that the lo-
son for next Sunday shall bo taken up
for discussion , Thu lesson to him
scorned to represent a Sunday school
with Christ as a teacher.
The forenoon session was closed
with sinning and the benediction by

The afternoon session opened with
a Borvico of praise and prayer.

TRADING AND TRAFFICKING
Such Booms the Chief Duslncao o
Anderson t Co. at Proaent.
If a fraction of the many reports
sfloat are true , Maj. Anderson , in his
eagerness to capture the congrcs
ftional nomination in this district , has
been making some queer trades and
promises. 32loctcd as a railway com
missioner to look after the interests of
the people , ho is reported aa having
promised his position to a man who is
known as strongly affiliating with
railway interests , provided that roan
would withdraw from the contest , and
hence John Y. Stono's declination. I'
is again reported that to keep out of
the contest a Montgomery county
man , ho has promised to work for his
nomination four years hence , if said
county will now support Anderson.
In fact , it seems that prom-
ism are being scattered in
all directions in the desperate
liopo ot gaining some strength for An
derson. Ic is all well enough for The
Nonpareil to cry "boom , " but the
fact is there is tut boom. There's a
grab , but no boom.
Iho call for thu county con-mtion
A deferred , eo that as short n time as
lossiblo will bo givmi those in the
enmity to itifoim themselves
and dccido how to act. This
grab on the county is cf
the s.inio kind as that tried on the
districtThis dispicuhlo way of try-
Uig to force a nomination is reacting ,
and none know it butti r than Andcrw
son & Co. , who seem to bo now trying
to atone for it by making promises to
any and all who may apply. What
uru the promises worth ?
THE NINTH'S NOMINATION.
A Suggestion to Do Away With Both
Anderson ana Sncp.
Cotro'iy/ndcnco ct The Dve.
TADOU , Iowa , May 22. Prohibition
is still the loading topic among our
people , with politics on deck. Presi
dent Brooks is devoting most of his
time to the causu and is speaking at
various points in and out of the coun
ty. Thu prevailing opinion , won by
its opponents , is that the amendment
will carry.
The republican congressional con
vention for this diitricc having been
called for next month is turning the
speculative minda of local politicians
to ( predictions of the probable result.
If no now candidates are sprung on
the convention it is conceded here
that Major Anderson of this county
will tccoivo the nomination. It is
supposed the fight for a position on
our country's altar will be between
Anderson and Sapp. It is generally
looked upon as a ( tcrumblo fur office in
which the masses are but little inter
ested. They should , however , attend
the primaries and let their preferences
bo known before it ia everlastingly too
late. While we would willingly
enough BOO our district represented by
Mr. Anderson , yet our first choice
would be one of our own townsmen
Tabor could present to the convention
as | a candidate a gentleman as worthy
and deserving of concressional honors
is any that the new Ninth district can
bring forward. A gentleman whoso
private character is above reproach ,
ind whoso integrity and ability are
beyond question ; s gentleman who has
done as much for Fremont county as
any citizen it contains , and said aa
many good words for southwestern
Iowa as any who present more pre
tentious claims to public favor. Wo
rtfer to President Win. M. Brooks , of
Tiibor College , who is doing more for
this part ot the otate in the building
up of a model school of learning' for
the improvement of its young men
and women than a score of chronic
ollico-Bookers , who for the real good
they luivo ever done , are but barren
ig trees. This is ono of the best dis
tricts in the state , Its citizeno appre
ciate education and respect religion.
Lot thniu not bo misrepresented. Let
them ccnd an able , educated , refined
Christian and public spirited gentle
man to congress from the now ninth.
Jamea Vincent , Sr. , editor of the
.Nonconformist , of this pluco , is men
tioned by the titato Tribune and oth
er loading papers of that' party as a
very proper candidate for congress iu
the national greenback party. Mr.
Vincent is a man of far moro than the
average ability and would likely make
good race , although too radical for
the more conservative of his own party.
There are not moro than a half
dozen democrats in our town , but BO "
far as congressional honors are con
cerned , wojcan accommodate oven that
party , although as they are all good
citizens , wo should not like to part
with them and would rote to have
them tarry at home.

Laborers Cautjbt Beneath a
Falliug1 Bank Near
Park's Mill ,
Ono Killed , Souio Injured , nna
Other * Bnrely Eacnpo.
The vicinity of Park's mill , a few
miles east of the city , seams prolific of
late in frightful accidents. Another
fatal ono occurred yesterday morning
about 10 o'clock. A largo number of
men were engaged shoveling in a big
cut , being employed by the Cnicago ,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway. The
tank at which they were at work was
Bomo fifty or sixty feet in height ,
and was close by thu track , upon
which stood the dirt train which was
being loaded. Thus hemmed in between -
tweon the high bank aud the track
there was little chance to escape from
aIand-alido. ) The bank had been
dug into two or three feet at its base ,
nnd some shovolors were at work there
when a bit of dirt came tumbling
down , A man named John Lynch
yelled to the men , and they fell back ;
but ono named Peter Johnson , who
was just taking a shovelful of dirt ,
delayed a little too long , and with a
dull and sickening thud a mass of dirt
foil from the height of about liftoon
foot , striking him upon the head
an ho was stoopinc over , knocking
him down nnd burying the upper part
of his body in IPMJ time thim it takes
to write it. Several of his fellow
workmen jump'ed to his rulfcf at once ,
and catching him by the feet was try
ing to pull him out when another fall
of dirt camo. Moat of them succeeded ,
in jumping out of the way , but some'
were caught by it and moro or lets
injured , while poor Johnson was
buried completely. Ono other man
was partially buried , but was got out ,
and his most serious injury proved to
bo a broksn leg. When Johnson's
body was dug out there was no signs
of life , and it was evident that ho had
been fearfully crushed by the slide of
dirt. It was reported that still an
other man was buried , and the digging
was continued in the expectation of
finding him , but no moro bodies were
found. Ono man , John Lynch , was
somewhat injured , but not so but that
ho could get about , the hurts appear
ing to bo only bruises.
Coroner Faul at. once held an inquest
on tno body of Peter Johnson , nnd
the facts gained were in substance as
ubovo narrated. It appears that
Johnson haa only been hero a short
time , having arrived in this city from
Denmark about eight .days ago. Ho
bus a cousin , or distant relative named
Chris Johnson , who lives hero , and
with whom ho was making his homo.
Ho had b.'en a Bailer for several years
and just came to this country in the
hope of bettering his fortune , leaving
in the old country his aged father and
mother , a brother and sister , and a
betrothed , to whom the sad news will
como with sad suddenness , following
so soon upon his arrival in this now
land and among strangers ,
Being without means , the county
has taken steps to give the man a de
cent burial , and his remains have boon
placed in the hands of the under
taker.
There were many rumors that oth
ers were buried beneath the fall of
dirt , and reports placed the number
as high as tour , but no moro bodies
were found. Thoro'was at least ono
ot the laborers who disappeared my
steriously about the time of the acci
dent , and it is thought that he at
least must have been buried , but it is
possible that ho was BO frightened
that ho quit work and left. A largo
number of the laborers were Danes
who understood little English , and
roost of the witnesses who appeared
before tha coroner's jury had to testi
fy through an imerpoter. It was im
possible to got at the real facts as to
whether the accident could have been
woidod by arty ordinary precaution ,
hut it seems that the place is at its
best a dangerous ono in which to
work , as in fact are nearly all the
banks in this vicinity.
