ROAST FOR STAND-PATTERS

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DEB MOINES, Oct. 11 (Special.) At
tracted by the report that Governor Cum
mins would make some warm political as
sertions on reciprocity In his address to
night before the Polk County Republican
club, Foster's opera house was packed and
the politicians were not disappointed. The
governor went deeper Into the tariff ques
tion than he has at any time done In a
public address, declaring for revision at
once. He declared that the standpatters
were trying to play the part of the power
drunken king of olden times and command
the tide to stay back, and asserted that the
standpatter "Is In great danger of getting
his feet wet." The governor asserted that
he had been voting for the republican party
since 1873, and said: "It seems to me that
I ought to know what republicanism Is
quite as well as those editors who appar

and specifications so procured to the city
council for approval..

KoeS Crrppen, Maloney. Olson.
A Herman Maloney objected to the adop
tion of the resolution on the grounds that
It mad no provision for a settlement of the
question by negotiation between the water
works company and the city for a reduction
or existing rates. He called attention to
the1 fact1 that, at far aa he waa aware, the
special committee having the matter tn
charge had made n overtures to the com
pany looking for a 'reduction of rates, but
that a If the efforts of the committee ap
peared to be directed toward municipal
ownership, and municipal ownership alone.
' Alderman Crlppen objeoted to the special
committee keeping everything to Itself and
not taking the Other members of the city
council Into its confidence. He thought the
resolution gave the committee too much
authority" and power and contended that
the, resolution should first be referred to
rrte committee of the whole for Its con
sideration. . Statement by Water Comaaay.
Following the adoption of the resolution
offered by the special committee, a com
munication, from the water works oompany
U, the committee was read. This commu
nication In part was as follows; 'm- (
. "Ttfe Vift'r'work oompany' is surprised at
your statement that your action in refus
ing, to negotiate for an extension of the
contract between, the. city and the com
' pan Is ' because ' the present administra
tion was' committed to municipal owner
shin and against negotiations for an ex
tension of the water company's contract
when it was entrusted with the adminis
tration by the vote of the Deoule. in view
of the fact that the platform upon which
the mayor and seven of the eight alder
men were elected contained this specific
statement:
"Resolved that we pledge to the people of
the rentals of the fire hydratns, but also
the dentals of the fire hydrants, but also
a reduction or water rates for private con
sumers to a reasonable figure, and if it be
comes impossible to make a fair contract
with the waterworks company for the
rental of hydrants and a fair rate to pri
vate consumers, we promise the people
of. this city to secure to them such bene
fits, either by. means of a franchise to an
Independent Company or by municipal own
ership of A similar plant without increas
ing the burden of taxation."
This plank waa made tl.e paramount Is
sue la the last city campaign, and we con
fess our Inability to see how this implied
pledge to attempt i first to obtain a fair
and reasonable contract with the company
and this express pledge not to Increase
the burden of taxation committed the ad
ministration to a refusal tu negotiate and
the imposition of the additional 1-mlll tax
ation provided for by the ordinance ra
ceutly passed.
After setting forth the bonded Indebted
ness of the company and stating that If
. the plant la, sold to the city It must be for
cash, the communication reads as follows:
In Justice to its' creditors the company
could not make a' proposition to sell Its
f riant to the ctty for less than Its float
ng and bonded Indebtedness, aggregating
about t9iio.00o. If the city will pay the
amount or Indebtedness of the company,
when ascertained, the eompany will trans
fer lis entire plant to the city la considera
tion therefor. If the city will mske a con
tract to buy the plant upon that basis
or 10 buy It upon such price as may be
nrl iinnn or. unon failure to agree.
upon the price fixed by arbitrators, the
fompany will do everything In Us power
o aid the city In ascertaining the value of
the plant

to the property of the company, capacity
of; the plant, etc.. It was referred without
comment to the special committee, on mo
tion Of Alderman .Weaver.

suDDOsed to have been directed at Lafe
Young of the Daily Capital.
Governor Cummins declared practically
that h would take the stump In opposition
to the candidacy of Shaw for president.
Referring to a recent Interview with Con
gressman Hull In a local paper of this
city. In wlkvh Hull said that It Bhaw la a
candidate- for president Iowa would of
course support him as a compliment to the
man and the state, Governor Cummins said:
"The time has come when the support of a
state should not be given as a compliment.
and I say here and now that I shall do
everything I can to see that nothing but
the will of the majority of the people of
this stats shall prevail In this regard."
Defining standpatters, the governor said
"There are two classes of standpatters.
the class of men who honestly believe that
the tariff schedules do not need changing
and the class that are standpatters because
J. W. Blythe Is a standpatter. Of the last
class I have nothing but contempt. If :
were to declare my faith In the ten com
mandments and the Sermon on the Mount
Blythe would at once strike them from his
Bible."

8T. LOUIS, Oct. 12.-The kidnaped
year-old boy, George Howard Reagan, who
with his nurse. Miss Goldie Tell of Clo
quet, Minn., disappeared from the child'
home in Alton, 111., Monday night, has not
been found. Miss Yell and the child have
been traced to St. Louis', and it has been
discovered here that she purchased a ticket
to Chicago and departed. According to the
published statements of Miss Yell's mother,
who is In Minnesota, the child belongs to
Miss Yell and waa taken Into the Reagan
home and Miss Yell employed as nurse.
Mr. Res gun, who Is now In Coshocton, O.,
In a signed statement published here today,
says: "Last summer I told my wife bluntly
that I believed the child waa Goldie Yell'a
ind not hers, and that she had worked a
game on me."
DULUTH, Minn., Oct. It-Mrs. Yell,
mother of Goldie Yell, said to a News
Tribune representative In Cloquet today:
A child was born to Ooldta tn Ht
two years ago. At this time Mrs. Rcagen
met Goldie In St. Louis and fell In love
with the child and wished to adopt it. She
waa living apart from her husband at that
time. Mrs. Keagen took the child and told
her husband that It was her own and hired
Goldie as a nurae. Mrs. Resren never
legally adopted the child, and, of course,
Goldie has a right to take the child away.
Goldie was here about a month ago work
ing for a book concern or aomethlng like
that, hut I have no Idea where she Is now
or where she might be. unless at the home
of her brother-in-law In St. Louis.

XZiCQM WORDS TO
t
From the view point of the avfraps
man housework is very easy. The wlf(
is right at home. She is her own tuis
tress. She can sit down and rest sny
time. Shscan even to to bod for a nap
if she feels like it. She can order her
household affairs jnrt to suit her own
convenience. If she doesn't feel equttl
to doing work to-dnv, she can do it
to-morrow. That's the beautiful iWry
of the average man.
Just supnoM the Egyptian task-masters,
when they made the reqnired
daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost
of human strength, had said to the
toiling slave, " Don't hurry, take a
rest every now and then only uon t
forget that rour tale of bricks must
be all right at night or else there'll be
trouble.'' -
There's the fact. There are the
day's duties to be got through, and the
women who can reft may not. The
woman, who, when she married, said,
"Now, I'll be my own mistress," finds
hr-r;ftif a slave to household cares and
duties.
And oht how much that woman
needs rest sometimes. She brushes and
scrubs, and rolls pastry, her temples
throbbing, her back aching, her nerves
quivering under the strew ot pain,
what she would give if she could just
creep upstairs and throw herself on the
bed in a darkened room and tit.
Rest would temporarily relieve the
strain, doubtleri, bnt it would be the
same story over again to-morrow.. The
real need of weak, nervous women is
strength, and that need is fully met
and satisfied by Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. It makes weak women
strong and slok women well. It re
moves the causes of women's weak
ness, tranquilizes and invigorates the
nervel, encourages the appetite and
.induces restful sleep. "Favorite Pre
scsiptiontt is a positive cure for the
most complicated and obstinate cases
of leucorrhes, excessive flowing, pain-

"I am pleased to add my testimony
in behalf of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription," writes Miss Earline Agard,
Chaplin, Patriotic Daughters of Amer
ica, of 413 H Michigan Avenue, Lansing,
Mich. "1 cannot find language to ex
press my gratitude and joy over the
fact that I am well once more. Wear
ing my corsets too tight seemed to have
brought on an eatra abdominal pres
sure, weakening the ligaments and
pushing the internal organs down.
What to do I knew not, as no medi
cines 1 took seemed to help me. .
"I had heard of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription and determined to try
it, as a last resort. Before the first
bottle was used I began to feel better,
but could hardly believe that this
was permanent, but my improvement
went steadily on, ana within four
months I was like a new woman.
Now I have no more pains, am well
and strong, and am extremely grate
ful to you."

make-up of "Favorite Prescription."
