(It is probable that the Indictment of
county offk-als and ethers In Clinton
'county last week will be followed by a
'proceeding to oust from o.TT.ce at least
lone of the officials under tbe state lav
providing for removal for wiluKf neg-
1 lect ot duty. It is decarcd that tbe 8u
'pervtsor -Prank Keeney to remove him
from' office, and that If this is done the
attorney general will be asked to take
charge of the case. In the case of tbe
! county auditor and county recorder, the
! only method provided for removal is that
of prosecution ,to a Jury unoer the old
law,- and this may he done unles they
resign as soon as the criminal cases
against them are disposed ot
The entire batch of indictments bat
created a great sensation in Clinton
though it had been known'a long time
that much rottenness was to be found
tor the probing. Tbe most serious part
of the matter Is the showing M to the
manipulation of bridge funds so that
thousands of dollars were taken' from
the county wrongfully by tbe officials
In connivance with the company baring
all the bridge - contracts. The pecula
tions are declared to have covered a
j period of twenty years and to be sub
! stantlally similar to those done for
'years In many oftbe counties of the
'state,
; The trial ot the . Indictments will be
commenced as soon as it la possible to
! get action In court." Th office of at
i torney general will be represented by
! Henry E. Sampson,, associate counsel
i All of the accused officials and citizens
have given bonds and say they will fight
the cases In court very hard.

Cities 'Own rtllltles. '!
The report of -the state department of
municipal accounts, Just made, shows
that eighty -three cities of Iowa own their
own water plants and engage In the busi
ness of furnishing water to the people,
Only seven of the cities reporting have
water plants privately owned. The av
erage charge per 1,000 gallons for water
by the cities owning their plants Is 27
cents, while the average maximum charge
for water where the plants are privately
owned Is 26 oenta and a traction. Twenty
four ot the dtlee reporting own and oper
ate municipal lighting plants, while sixty
six secure lighting service from plants
owned and operated by private parties or
corporations. j- V , -,
Teamsters Make Demand.
On September IS. 100 . Dee Moines
teamsters employed by coal companies
will demand an Increase In wages of
IS cents per hour, or refuse to haul.
There are three scales In effect at the
present time. The scales range from
cent to 75 cents per hour. The aver
age increase demanded will be 15 cents.
Union officials believe that the coal
companies will comply with their de
mands - .and that , there will , be no
trouble. In this event, the additional ex.
pense will be taxed to the cousumer this
winter.
Commercial chauffeurs will also meet
' tonight to organise a union and discuss

Convention et Cherches.
The low Christian convention of the
Churches of Christ will convene Sunday

Carroll Make Demand, i
The demand Issued by Governor Car-,
roll on behalf of the republican party
that candidates for all offloe In the
state and committeemen must declare
themselves tor President Tsit hat started
a controversy that for some time w: 11
probably be the center of attraction tor
the state 'politicians. It is known that
the state and congressional candidates
and the party leaders decided nat their
meeting here' last Week that they could
best make the fight by standing tquarelf
on the state platform and leaving the
controversy as to president alone. It is
to head oft this attitude and force the
making ot the tight for president rather
than the state ticket that the announce
ment was made.
