Tremendous impetus was given tho anti-saloon crusade In this city as a result of the meetings addressed Sun­day afternoon and evening in the tabernacle, by Ex-Governor F. J. Han-ley, of Indiana.

Sunday night's meeting was a fitting finale to the many impressive services held in the big .wooden structure on West Main street, which today is being torn down to make room for the new Central Church of Christ church.

Those who were Instrumental in bringing Governor Hanley to Marshall-town builded better than they knew. He Is a power whose scope Is difficult to measure, and the anti-saloon forces were Imbued with an enthusiasm, zeal and activity not hitherto felt or known, As a direct Tesult the work of securing signatures to the petition is going for­ward today with a renewed energy and organized force that seem irresistible. Governor Hanley's afternoon address, delivered to an audience of 1,800 peo­ple, was what he termed the founda­tion for that to follow at the night meeting. In it the constructive genius of the trained lawyer was demon­strated, with tact, logic, fact, argu­ment, and illustration that made the basic structure solid and impregnable.

If Liberty Lives; License Must Die, The speaker opened by declaring

that liberty, the most priceless boon of the American citizenship, is not per' sonal license, that license at its best is •not true liberty, that license Is the lib­erty of the jungle, of the assassin, of those who contend that might makes right. If liberty lives, license must die, he asserted.

Governor Hanly avowed that we, as a nation, sowed feae wind for 250 years, in permitting slavery to exist; then for four years reaped the whirlwind in the Civil war, the struggle for emancipa­tion. He proceeded to outline the most prominent events and recall the dis­tinguished personage making up the history of that conflict and used them as an illustration In driving home hl3 splendid argument that license of the liquor traffic is inimical to liberty, and a constant menace to law and order. The passion for liberty Is not now for war and to die for one's country, he said, but for peace and to live for our country. Solidarity of the nation is the bulwark of its perpetuation and license perverts it.

New Patriotism of Peace. "You don't need a revival of the

patriotism of war but of peace In Mar-shaHtown," he said* "You lack the moral courage. Men are needed who can see something else tM&n thd al­mighty dollar in the struggle. We need more statesmen and less politicians. The enemies we have to face are not, those of foreign oountrles, but are within. They are more subtle, and more dangerous than armed hosts of nations. Our real defenses are in the hearts and consciences and civil con' cept of our people."

War on parasite of Thrift. Governor Hanley said he didn't come

here to heap anathemas on heads of the liquor dealers but "to look you in the face and say that if they are nere one month from now the responsibility is yours. There is room in this great contest only upon one side for the bus­iness men and law loving people," he declared. "I make no war upon thrift, but I do upon .that which thrives on theft. There are honest men enough here, if they do their duty, to end this traffic tomorrow," he asserted. "You can't build prosperity upon the open saloon."

8unday Night's Meeting, Sunday night's meeting, the last that

will ever be held In the tabernacle, was an inspiring reminder of the mkny stirring services during the evangelis tic revival. Nearly 4,000 people were present. The choir was there in prac tlcally full force. F. Aubrey Smith led a rousing song service. Rev. James Mc Gee presided and introduced the speak­er.

Too Many Tin Soldiers. Governor Hanley's subject was "The

Irrepressible Conflict." He said it had been waged thru all-time between the forccs of good and the troops of evil, some time thru peaceful agencies, at others thru the arbitrament of the swortf. Todavj, another phase of this mighty conflict Is on. It is yet too soon for jubilation. Many battles are yet to be fought. This is a christian conflict We wage it as a christian people. "You may lose this battle in Marshalltown," he said, "but you will not lose the war. But the church lacks something today. It lacks the power of a great conviction on this liquor question. There are too many 'tin soldiers' In its ranks. If the church was enough In earnest the traffic would be wiped from the entire country in half a de cade. The church is too placid, is too well pleased with Itself and the world as it finds It. The Issue Is nation wide Its dominion is the republic. Its foe is the organized liquor trafffo of Amer­ica, whose resources are almost bound less. Its leaders are desperate and ready for anything. They trample upon every law, human and divine.

Church Can Not Run Away, The speaker boldly asserted that the

church must meet dauntlessly this great adversary or run away, and de­clared that it could not run away. "It the church fights she will need men," he said, "not in heaven, tiut in Mar­shalltown. There Js more need ot men now in Marshalltown than there is In heaven, men who will do something to' earn thai.crown promised over there."

Answers Liquor Men's Argument. Governor Hanley took- up the prin­

cipal arguments advanced by the liquor; tnen and tti*jr friends, answering th

and refuting evidence ot the trained barrister. 'VU Lincoln, at the crisis in the civil war, could raise enough money and men to wlh that struggle what can you not do here In Marshalltown 1" He said the real remedy for broken law is an aroused public sentiment. He then tootk up and dissected the claims ad­vanced for the licensed saloon on the tax proposition, showing that it doesn't pay what it professes to pay, by any means.

iMust Be On One Side or the Other. "Some of you say you don't have to

choose sides in this contest," said the speaker, "but you do. You must be on one side or the other. There is no al­ternative. And as an economic ques­tion you had better let the saloon go. It doesn't pay a dollar in revenue of its own money. That money is paid by its customers. He then went on to prove that a dry town is not a dead' town, and asked how the saloonkeeper got his idea that a dry town is dead when he doesn't do business in that kind of a place. He demonstrated that the dis­tiller or brewer is not the friend but the enemy of the farmer.

In closing Governor Hanley laid stress upon the statement that it is not only the privilege but the duty of the l>o,000 people of Marshalltown to put the licensed liquor traffic out of the city. "Let It alone and it will let you alone, say you? Not so. It will not let you alone. You can't escape its blight, its influence and your respon­sibility."

The address was frequently inter­rupted by applause, which' \yas pro­longed at the close.

frMwK In-order,; with the cool, oonvlnclng logic

Sunday was observed in Marshall-town as a general memorial day for fraternal organizations and trades unions. The union men, joining In the invitation of the machinists of the city, observed tho forenoon, when 200 or more went to Rlvorside in a body and decorated tho graves of departed mem­bers of different union labor organiza­tions. In the afternoon 350 people participated In the exerciscs of tho joint fraternal organizations. The Marshalltown Union band played for both services.

Rev. C. W. McCord delivered tho ad­dress before the fraternal organiza­tions. P. A. Hawley made a few open­ing remarks, and was followed by a se­lection by a male quartet. Mr. Mc­Cord gave the invocation, and after another number by tho quartet gave the memorial address. Mr. Hawley made a few remarks in closing. In the morning a committee from the dif­fering organizations participating dec­orated the different graves of the lodge members. Out of the ten lodges that took part in the exercises five furnish­ed degree teams. Those were the Mod­ern Woodmen of America, the Royal Neighbors, Knights of the Maccabees, Ladies of the Maccabees, and Royal Highlanders.

Union Meni Make Good Showing. The union men of tho city mado a

good showing in their morning parade to Riverside. While the machinists originated the idea of holding a union­ists' memorial service, several of the allied organizations in tho Iowa Cen­tral shops joined with the machinists, as well as other trades organisations of the city. Edward D. Brigham, of Des Moines,.^x-Iowa commissioner of labor, delivered the address.

BUSINES3 MEN TALK FACTORY.

Who Established First Steam Laundry in Bombay Here.

Frank A Rodgers, who for some time has beon residing in Phoenix, Ariz., Is in tho city for a few days, a guest of F. H. Har, of tho Palace laundry.

Mr. Rodgers is the man who estab­lished the first steam laundry In Bom­bay, India, and after neeossnrlly seeking the protection of the militia, gradually taught the natives to change shirts oc­casionally and wear collars. Mr. Rod­gers became ill ot pulmonary troub'e, returned to the United States, and sought restoration ot health last sum­mer In Arizona. Altho not fully recov­ered his condition Is much Improved.

Mr. Rodgers gives free lectures when his volco and strength will permit, upon his travels and experiences In India, which are very Interesting. He says tho natives ot that far oft country are greatly Interested in irrigation and de­rived what knowledge they possess on tho subject thru a commission sent a few years ago for investigation In tho Salt River valley of Arizona.

Lady Curzon, formerly Miss D-.tl-iy Lelter, of Chicago, was well known to Mr. Rodgers while in India and patron­ized his laundry to the extent of near ly $140 a month. Her family wasn't very large either.

Mr. Rodgers says tho religious pas­time of burning newly-made widows with the bodies of their husbands Is still observed among the lowest classes of India, In secret, and ho declares he has witnessed at least eight of these cremations of the living with tho dead. He says India Is a good place in which to make money, but not a desirable country to live In, as tho temperature averages around 125 degrees in the shade.

According to Mr. Itodgers farming In India has undergone remarkable changes In recent years, primitive methods being supplanted by modern machinery, American made, and that country is now producing a large pro­portion of the world's wheat. Nearly all the harvesting and threshing outfits are bought in the United States. He says tho natives almost worship the Americans, who have awakened them from their lassitude of centuries and imbued t'hem with tho spirit of pro-gresslveness and modern civilization.

Mr. Rodgers was particularly Im­pressed by the fact that the larger por­tion of the corn sent from this country in such abundance to India during the famine a few years ago, still 1le» in a great weed-grown mound, or hill, un­touched and going to waste, as natives refused to oat It. For mechanical products of the Ui States there Is an active and g ro demand, however.

Butler. Michael Butler, aged 73, died at 205

Sunday afternoon in the soldiers' home hospital of sinile dellbity. He was admitted to the home from Corn­ing, Sept. 9, 1901. Mr. Butler was a native of Ireland. He enlisted in Com­pany B, Thirty-third Iowa Infantry, in 1862, at Sigourney, and was discharged at Memphis, Tenn. Surviving him are three daughters and one son, Mrs. Maud Morris, Mrs. Clara Meyers, Mrs. Nellie Ellis and George Butler, all liv­ing In Omaha. They have been notified by telegraph of their father's death and funeral arrangements are not com­pleted, pending word from them. I

" • Shimek. ' Mrs. Lena Shimek, wife of John

Shimek, of Quarry, died at 11:40 Sun­day morning after an illness that be­gan Friday evening. Obstruction of the bowels, complicated with pneumon­ia, was the cause of death. Aside from her husband, Mrs. Shimek is survived by three daughters, all living in this city. They are Mrs. Frank Weaver, 911 Iowa street; Mrs. Joseph Yanko, 507 May street, and Mrs. John Cordts, East Boone street. The funeral will be held from St. Mary's church Tuesday morning at 10:30, Rev. J. J. Fltzpat-Tick, D. D., officiating. ••.,.•••..

Special Committee on Richmond Con­cern Suggests Plan.

A meeting of business men and "boosters" ofr- Marshalltown Is In pro­gress this afternoon at-the parlors of •the First National Bank, called by the ^special committee of ,tho Retail Mer­chants' Association, consisting of O. L. Ingledue, P. W. Norris, Jr., and C. H. Van Law, who were appointed recently to perfect a plan .whereby the people of Marshalltown could assist C. R. Speers and C. L. Colby in financing the proposed Richmond Safety Gate Com­pany to the extent of $46,000, in order that the factory and business of this company might be removed to Mar­shalltown.

The company is now In operation ab Richmond, Ind.. where it has been suc­cessfully manufacturing automatic ele­vator gates, fire doors, and other hard­ware specialties for many years. Mr. C. L. Colby has been manager of the company, and has secured an option for the purchase of the plaint and ma­chinery from the present owners. He offers to put In $10,000 cash if Mr. Speers and the people of Marshalltown will Invest $3G,000 with him. Mr. Speers, under certain conditions, offers to invest half of this latter amount.

The plan proposed by the special committee Is that $36,000 worth of stock, in denominations of $100 per share, be sold to the citizens of Mar­shalltown, upon partial payment of $1 per week on each share, and that half of the total amount bo sold as common stock in the proposed Richmond Safety Gate Company, the other half being | sold In tho form of 7 per cent preferred stock In the A. R. Shorthlll Company, with an agreement from the Shorthlll Company to reinvest In the common stock of the Richny^id Safety Gate Company, dollar per|Jbllar, the amount which It receives from this sale of pre­ferred stock. Local Investors will thus receive for their money equal amounts of stock in the new company, and pre­ferred stock in the A. E. Shorthlll Company, while the entire amount will •be subscribed in tho new company, which expects to move Its machinery and .plant to Marshalltown Aug. 1, and
