Navnho, Vigilant nnd Allsn, and two of

Those races arc held principally for tho

It has been given a now mast several fcot

throat and peak hlllyards It Is hoped to
keep the gaff from swinging so far out

(From a Staff Correspondents
DE3 MOINES, Aug. P. (Spcclul.) The
democratic state central committee held a
meeting In this city today, nt which there
were present Chairman Hurt mnn, Secretary
Jackson and nearly all tho members of the
committee. Charles A. Walsh, secretary of
tho nntlonnl committee, wns nlso present.
While tho committee wns vailed to meet nt
this time for tho purpose ot completing de
tails of tho nrrnngements for the demo
cratic state convention In Dcs Moines and
to scoth.u nil tho prellmlnnrlcs nre car
ried out, tho fact Is that It was more sig
nificant than this. One reason for tho
presence of Secretary Walsh In the city to
attend the meeting Is that a general on
slaught has been mado on him nnd Chair
man Huffman by some of tho democrats of
tho stnte. Beforo tho Polk county conven
tion, hold recently, thoro was Introduced
and discussed n resolution calling on Chair
man Huffman to resign his position ns
chairman nnd get oft the committee. This
wns done because ho has recently been en
gaged ns nn Insurance ngent for a Dcs
Moines company In Missouri. The resolu
tion was finally referred to the stato com
mittee and Chairman I luff man asked that
this be taken up nnd disposed of. Secretary
Walsh of the nntlonnl committee Is In part
nership with Huffman In the Missouri en
terprise, and If the state committee should
have condemned Huffman It would havo
been a pnrtlal condemnation of Walsh. But
the stato committee Is entirely friendly to
both Walsh and Huffman nnd nothing will
bo done to humlllnto cither.
ltevluc C'linlrinnti'N Speech.
Another Important matter which came be
fore the commltteo today was that of tho
speech of the temporary chairman of the
convention. Ex-City Attorney 8baron of
Davenport was named somo tlmo ago to
preside over tho convention and to preparo
the speech which should bo considered the
keynote of tho party In this campaign. At
that time tho- policy of tho party In Iowa
waB considered and the committee virtually
decided that the campaign Bhould bo mado
ou stnte Issues so far as possible. It was
to bo a campaign of anti-monopoly, espo
dally us to tho corporation Issue; a demand
for reform In taxation, especially tho tnxa
tlon of railroads, telegraphs and express
companies, nnd perhaps a general attack on
the republican party In Iowa as becoming
too strongly n prohibition party. To this
was to bo added an attack on tho rcpub
llcan party In Iown becauso of a few ex
travagances In stato printing and binding
nnd a scandal or two In state offices. A
little later certain democrats at Davenport
started a crusade ngalnnt the man picked
as temporary chairman becauso It was
shown ho was attorney for the water works
coinpnny and wns making a hard monopoly
fight at home and was picked to mako. an
anti-monopoly speech. So the state com
mltteo called Mr. Sharon before It today to
discuss with him his speech and perhaps
to Insist on exercising somo supervision
over his remarks,
. l)intGra.ti (nr Cmnnilii.
The action of' tho republican state con
vention at Cedar Itaplds also necessitated
some change in tho program. Scores of tho
old-line democrats of Des Moines havo de
clared they will vote for Cummins for gov"
crnor. Tho ticket suits them very well.
They do not regard Mr. Cummins as In any
senso n democrat, but he did run on an In
dependent ticket once in this county and
was elected to tho legislature by democratic
votos, nnd the democrats ot this part of
the stato have always had a kindly feeling
for him. And then ho has made such a do
tcrmlnrd fight against those elements In the
republican party which are most obnoxious
to democrats that tho democrats feel he
ought In fact to he In their party. It Is
fair to say that In their present state ot
mind from 10 to 20 per cent ot the demo
crats of the stato could be got to voto for
Cummins for governor. Colonel Elboeck
tho veteran democratic editor and quite In
fluential among the nermann, declares he ts
In favor of the democrats not making any
campaign against Cummins. Ho wns head
of tho electoral .ticket last year. He says
that he has received personal assurances
from a great many democrats In Des Moines
that they will vote for Cummins no matter
what the democrats do. They say thnt Mr.
Cummins Is himself a better anti-monopoly
platform than anything tho democrats sould
put up.
But even If tho democrats no not decline
to mako a tight far governor, tho nomina
tion ot tho ticket, especially the placing of
Cummins and Herrlott thereon, makos It
Impossible for the democratic party to put
up a good fight against It. Mr. Cummins took
tho lead In tho movement to got tho repub
lican party to recede from prohibition and
be rational on the liquor question. Tho
Antl-Salnon league, through Its president,
has announced that It will mako a bard
fight against Cummins. This will only serve
to arouse tho Germans nnd make thom work
tho harder for hlra. For every prohibition
voto that goes over to tho prohibition party-,
Cummins will gain another direct from the
democratic party. Henco It will be or hard
campaign for tho democrats to mako.
Taxation Unite Klllnl,
Tho democrats had prepared also to make
n vigorous- campaign against tho repub
licans on tho theory that no reform In tax
ation could bo expected from that party.
Thoy wero to declare that tho republican
party w-as so completely under tho control
of the railroads and other corporations

Th Kind of Coffee When I'oMtnm I
Well Marie.
"Threo great coffee drinkers wore my old
school friend and her two daughters.
"They nre always complaining nnd taking
medicine. I determined to give them Pos
turn Food Coffee Instead of coffee when
they visited me, so without saying any
thing to them about It I made a big pot ot
Postum the first morning, using four heap
ing teaspoons to tho pint of water and lot
It boll twenty minutes, stirring down oc
casionally. Before the meal was half over each one
passed up the cup to be refilled, remark
ing how fine the coffee was. Tho mother
asked for a third cup and Inquired as to
tho brand of coffee I used, I didn't an
swer her question Just then, for I had heard
her say a while beforo that she didn't like
Postum Food Coffee unless It was more
than half old-fashioned coffee,
"After breakfast I told her that the coffeo
sho liked so well was puro Postum Food
Coffca and tho reason Bho liked It was be
causo It was properly made, that Is, It
was boiled long enough to bring out the
flavor. I have been brought up from a
nervous, wretched Invalid to a flno condi
tion of physlvnl health by leaving off cof
feo and using Postum Food Coffee.
"I am doing nil I can to help the world
out of coffee slavery to Postum freedom,
and have earned the gratitude of many,
many friends," Myra J, Tullcr, 1023 Troost
Ave., Kansas City, Mo.
that It would be Impossible to expect nnv
relief from the burdens of unequal taxation
but by turning to the democrntB. The nom
ination of Cummins, Herrlott, Weaver and
Brown put n big hole In thai theory. Both
Cummins and Herrlott are pledged to the
principle of equality In taxation and fair
ness to all Interests. It was Herrlott who
Qrst stirred up the subject by his famous
protest agnlnst n manifestly unfair assess
ment of the railroad properties In the slatp
n few years ngo. Mr. Cummins' nomlnntlou
Is duo d'rectly to' the belief that Herrlott
wns right.
In view of this the democratic state com
mittee desired to revise the program some
what nnd this was done today.
Looking for a Candidate.
The matter of the proper catidldats for
governor on the democratic ticket Is receiv
ing some attention, but the democrnts have
waited to sea what tho republicans would
do, Now thnt the republicans hnve mado
tt Impossible to fight the campaign on some
of the state Issues the democrats had picked
the available candidates for governor are
fewer. There has been much talk of trying
to secure the consent ot Judge I O. Klnue
of the Slate. ,Bonrd of Control to make the
race. He will not do this. He wns twice
the nominee of, tho party and made splendid
runs, but to bo the candidate now he would
have to give up his work of managing the
state Institutions, and he Is well satisfied
to. continue In this. Ex-Oovcrnor Bq'lcs Is
regarded ns n possibility. There was somo
tnlk of Colonel M. B. Davis of Sioux City
for the leadership of tho party, hut ho has
Just been nominated for sheriff In his
county and might not ear a to run for two
offices nt once. He was Inst year deport
ment commander ot the Qranl Army ot tho
Republic. Ex 'Mayor Phillips of Ottumwa is
still a candidate. Ho Is nctlvely seeking tho
place and may got It.
If tho republicans who were defeated In
tho recent contest show a disposition to
bolt the ticket outright It Is probable the
democrats will try- to pick a man who will
be acceptable to them, and especially ono
who will receive encouragement from tho
lending railroad politicians of the state.
But whatever Is done at the democratic con
vention it is ccrtntn that tho ticket named
at Cedar IlapldB will bo elected. What was
done this week, however, made Ih more dlfll
cult for the democrats to brenk nwny from
their free silver hoodoo, becauso the op
portunity to mako a campaign on stato
Issues is largely gono.

The Youth AVon Not so Mnch of a
"Tenderfoot" a He Seemed.
A stripling of effeminate roslness and
neat attire sat In tho corner of a frontier
saloon, modest, silent, and as far out of
the way ns he could get, writes Owen Wis
tor In Everybody's Magazine. He hnd
stepped from the train, and ho was wait
ing for tho stnge. It was starched linen
that ho wore; thn city showed quite plainly
In his hat, nnd It In stllMn dlsputo whether
nny down was visible upon his Up. But ho
wns old enough to bo smoking a cigar with
all tho appearance ot habit. The cigar,
also, was not a native of 'the town. In
fact,, the young man mado no purchase upon
entering tho saloon, nevertheless tho pro
prietor could scarcely complain ot him.
Tho stranger hod asked If he might watt
thcro fpr the, stage, and hnd thanked the
proprietor tor' his permission.
then he. had sought' his quiet corner and
lighted his cigar. '
A citizen walked, .put of' tho back room
and Up to tiie bar. He had left a faro game
and tho proprietor was' friendly with htm,
but re'lrpectful; that sort of respect' wtylch
Is flavored , 'delicately vflth Just enough
famlllarlty-to brlh'g-lt out. " It Is-probable,
that tho cltiten 'had had moro' drinks than
tho one ho now totfk. It Is Also-likely that
faro lmd 'not gone ns well with htm this
morning ns ho considered his due. His dis
satisfied eyo felt upon the rosy youth nnd
his cigar, and he, took tho glass from his lips
and held It, considering the stranger.
At length, wlthouremovlng his eyes, ho
inquired: "What' Christmas treo did that
drop off?"
The proprietor- hastened to tako this,
vlowi "It's express tag has fluttered away,
I guess," ho whispered, Jocosely.-
The citizen remembered his whisky,
swallowed It, set the glass gently down,
gently drew his six-shooter nnd Bhot tho
cigar to smash out of tho young man's
mouth.
Now, I do not at nil know what I should
have done In the young man's place. Some
thing "sensible, I hope. What tho youth did
I know I should not havo done. You will
sco that his behavior was out ot tho com
mon. Ho stooped down, picked up his
cigar, found It ruined, put It In tho spit
toon, got a ttrcsh one out of his pocket,
found a match In his waistcoat, slid It
along the seat ot'hls nice breeches, lighted
tho new cigar, and sottled himself, onco
more In his chair, without a word of pro
test or an attempt at resentment. The pro
prietor saw him do It all, nnd told about It
afterward.
Tho citizen took tho second, cigar, smash!
like tho first Perhaps he went a trifle
nearer tho youth'fl Up.
What wero tho cftrd players In tho back
room doing nt all this noise? They nil Iny
flat on tho floor, like the well trnlned, In
digenous peoplo that they were, minding
their own business. For there was no rear
exit.
The youth felt In his walstcont pocket,
but brought no mntch from It. So ho rose
with still another fresh cigar In his hnnd,
.nnd wnlked to tho bnr.
"I'll hnvo to nsK you - tor a maicn, no
said to tho pj-pprlejor'who at once accom
modated him.
Onco again ho slid tho maton nenenth his
cnattalls, and, bringing up his own six
shooter, shot the cltlzon as Instantly dead
ns that pan be done.
