atatlstlca of Work Done by the Varl

-LaiT) tr t omea Ont Ahead
of Court,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES. May 10-(Speclal.) Cap
tain J. A. T. Hull, member of congress
from the Seventh district, spent the entire
day In consultation with his friends und
political associates considering the Question
of the selection of forty-one delegates to
the district congressloual convention which
will nominate him for another term for
congress. His nomination Is af-aured as
every county of the district has sent dele
gations favorable to him, and the chief In
terest attaches to the fact that Captain
Hull will also name the delegates who will
decide who shall go to the national con
vention at Chicago to represent the dis
trict. There are three active candidates
each having his own county, Edmund K.
Nichols of Dallas, J. H. Henderson of
Warren and Dr. Hostetter of Story. All
are friends of Captain Hull and all have
been claimed by the "atandpattera" us
tholr men. Henderson seems assured ot
success, and the fight is between the other
two. Nichols holds the most advantageous
position, that of having been urged to run
as a candidate against Hull nnd with
recognition of the fact that ho was almost
the only man In the district who could
have beaten Hull, yet after a conference
with Hull he withdrew from that contest
and became a candidate for delegate, thus
relieving Hull of a possible embarrassment
after his success in hla home county. It
Is claimed by Nichols' friends that there
was virtually an understanding that Hull
would not attempt to dabble In the dele
gate fight, but leave It to the outside
counties and divide the Polk county dele
gation. It is expected that Hull will name
hla delegates tomorrow and this will show
who Is to be the delegate to Chicago.

Where the Court Went Wrong.
flenator Arthaud, formerly of Taylor
county, won out In a personal contest with
the honorable district court of Judge Par
rlsh, and the supreme court sustains the
lawyer rather than the Judge in a little
matter of a $25 fine for contempt. There
was nothing In the record to show why
Judge Farrlsh fined Senator Arthaud save
that the order for the flue stated It was
for "contemptuous and insolent behavior
towards said court," and "language and
conduct in refusing to obey the orders of
the court," and In "his remarks and con
duct towards the court In this as in many
other instances during the term." The su
preme court today annulled the fine and or
der 'because Judge Porrlsh proceeded to
tine the attorney and gave him permission
to explain afterwards instead of before the
fins waa assessed, which the supreme court
says IS the wrong way to do it. The court
is also criticized for failure to make a rec
ord of the specific things complained of, as
required by law.

the frost Una la northern districts, but
there are no reports of damage.
"Very satisfactory advancement has been
made In plowing and preparing ground for
corn, and reports from all districts indi
cate that a considerable aoreage has been
planted under very good conditions ot soli.
The bulk of the corn area la likely to be
planted earlier than In recent aeaaona, and
the acreage will be Inoreaaed. Data and
other spring grain cropa are making a fairly

The only conditions are that you send in for each five differ

inside of each package of the food, and that you mail your list

Be sure and write your name and address plainly. The spelling

The following are some of the ways the word could be spelled!
Egg-O-Sea, Eg-Oh-Cy, Egg-O-Cee, Eg-O-Sie.

and it is permissible to get help from others after you have

We are doing this so that the merits of Egg-O-See,

flaked wheat Is the most
delicious and healthful of

are now universally rec
