1'KH MOINBS. Ta., June 11. -(Special )
An effort Is being made now to ascertain
the personal sentiments of the various
editor of newspaper In Iowa In recard
to next year's political corltest and they
are being asked to send In a statement aa
to Whether they are for or against the
national admlnltitratlon In the matter of
the rrelrrcclty bill pending In oongres.
Kx-flenaior l.afn Young ha" denied the ac
curacy of the poll of the Chicago Tribune.
In which If wan found that there were a
mal'Tlty of the newspaper editors In sym
pathy with the reciprocity meanure. There
fore, a new poll la being made. The fact
Is that a r - at majority of the newspapers
of the st." especially the weekly papers,
have not en any very .decided stand on
the fiieeth n hut have been c ntent to wait
until a later time before acting. The gen
eral disposition among- the. editora of re
publican papers has been to leave the
matter to congTess and not to undertake
tn Ktlr up the people, on a matter concern
ing which they are not as yet fully ad
vised. As to whether a new p .11 will ahow
that the editors of tht tate are oppoul
to the administration program l a de
batable question and there li great In
terest belig taken In the Inquiry.
, Preparing tor Seat Itir.
Ex-8enator Jafo. Young and Senator W.
8. Kenyon have both accepted engage
ments for all Chautauqua and other ad
dresses possible in Iowa f r the next year,
and Indications are that both are prepar
ing for an active campaign that will com
mence early. Senator Kenyon has a num
ber of date for fall speaking at fairs and
similar place. It Is now accepted as con
clusive that the contest next year for
United State senator will be bttween these
two men and that they will both appeal
direct to the voters to support them. Sen
ator Kenyon having taken a position In
tipport of President Taft on aubstantlally
everything and Senator Toung taking an
opposite view, the campaign will have
some novel features. Both are very able
speakers.
Distribution of "federal Places.
There Is but little Interest manifested In
the coming redistribution of federal posi
tions, save among the present officehold
ers and their friends. Following the cus
tom, there will be practically a new deal
all round. The most embarrassing situa
tion la In regard to the positions for United
Btates attorneys. In both of the districts
there ar eseveral candidates. In the
southern district there nre: A. I. Smith.
Mount Ayr; J. M. Wll-n. Centervllle; J.
A. Djer. H. H. BtlrP " "harles A. Lyon,
Des Moines. In the northern district there
Is E. E. Favllle, Storm Lake, and S. D.
ninlker. Rock Rapids. It Is conceded that
E. H. Knott, marshal In the northern dis
trict, will not be appointed again, and
Truman H. Potter of Mason City la likely
to be the man. For collector In the south
ern dlBtrlet Arthur Springer of Wapello
Is a candidate. It la probable that Marshal
Clark and Collectoi! Tobln will be ap
pointed again. The plan la to hava the
Iowa delegation settle the matter very
aeon. , T
Thorne Would Go to Wasfclngstan.
Some active work Is being done here to
secure for Clifford Thorne a position as
secretary to the Interstate Commerce oom
mtMlon. He la being urged for the place
by his political friends and the Iowa dele
gation has Indorsed him. If he should
succeed It would mean the appointment by
the governor of a jaew member of the State
Railroad commWlon. In view of the fact
that very Impoftaht rate matters are soon
to be handled tx-fore the Interstate Com
merce commission by the State Railroad
commission and that Mr. Thorne was
elected . especially ' to handle these case
for the commission, there Is some opposi
tion to the .'resignation of Mr. Thorne to
accept a mlpor. place In Washington. But
the salary of.Jtbe positton at Washington
Is more than, twice that of the office held
In Iowa.
Encampment of O. A. R.
The department officers of the Grand
Army of the ftepubllo for Iowa wilt start
tomorrow for 'Muscatine to attend the an
nual encampment to be held there this
week. All trouble over the strike or lock
out of the workers in the button factories1
Is at an end and the city Is prepared to
entertain the veterans well. It Is expected,
however, that tha attendance will be light.
Commander H, A- Vyr of Mason City will
not be present aa he Is too 111 to attend.
A fine program has been arranged with
a numbe df addresses by notable members
of the order.
Making l it of skunk River.
Electricity for both light and power In
three or four counties of southeastern Iowa
from power stations erected along Skunk

Nrn Department at Ian.
An agricultural normal training depart
ment to prepare teachers of agriculture for
the high school of th state has been added
to th Iowa State college by the state
educational board. Th course properly
belongs Jo the State Teachers' college at
Cedar Falls, but was given to Ames be
cause of the exceptional facilities there for
' preparing teachers In agriculture. The
reason given for Its creation is th great
demand rom th high schools of th stat
for teaotiers'of agriculture. Ther Is aa
unprecedented movement sweeping over
Iowa for the teaching of agriculture in th
common, schools. Ther Is a woeful lack
of teacher for the schools and the board
believes that the creation of the new de
partment, will relieve the condttlun. The
department will be opened in September.

President to Ask
Congress to Decide
Upon Panama Tolls
Colonel Goethals' Present Trip North
Believed Largely to Emphasize
Early Action by Nation.
WASHINGTON, June It (Special Tele
gramsBefore the present extra session of
congress ends, unless plans are changed,
President Taft will ask fur definite action
In the matter of fixing the rate of tolls
to be charged for passage through the
Panama canal.
This Information comes from a good
source. Thep resident took up the subject,
following the arrival In Washington two
days sgo of Colonel Goethals. chairman of
the Isthmian Canal commission. One reason
alone, Colonel Goethals has pointed out to
the president, calls for the fixing and an
nouncement of the rate before the end of
June. In Liverpool this month Is held an
annual convention of the shipping Interests
of the world. This International association
of shippers appealed to the United State
last year for Information as to tollB and
other details of the government of the
canal.
According to statements made by Colonel
Goethals to the president, this Inability on
our part to announce the rates will eventu
ally cost "hajn loss of business through th
water way not less than $10,000,000. It Is
to avoid an even greater loss, says Colonel
Goethals, of congress' failing again to give
Liverpool this Information, that he has
come up from the Isthmus and spent every
moment of th time tha president eould
glv htm In the White House-and It Is
known he has completely won the presi
dent to his way of thinking.'

JUDGE GREEN HAS RESIGNED
Resignation Has Been in Hands of
Governor Since Friday.
EXPECTS TO QUIT EARLY IN JULY
Many Seek the arant Place on the
tench. Latest Applicants Itelnar

Jndae f'nlllsnn.
.ludce Orron's reslgnstion ' has been In
tha hands' of flovernor Csrroll lnre Fri
day, and although lie la still performing
the duties of district court judge, it I
with tha added distinction of receiving
the highest pay for the work of any Judge
in the Vnited States with th exception
of the supreme Justices. Hi salary of
$7,1100 a year bh congressman hensn with
the date of his resignation from the
district court bench. Th pay of the
Judges of the federal district court li
$5,00n and the salary paid to Judges of
the federal court of appeal Is $7,009 a
year.
Judge Green will not be able to reach
Washington as soon as he expected on
account of his determination to clean up
all of the work on the district court bench
that cannot well be performed by hi
successor, or by his confreres. This re
lates to cases and matters that have been
presented to him and not yet disposed of.
It would seriously discommode at
torneys and litigants if Judge Green did
not finish up his work. He cleared away
a lot of this work during the two days
h was here laat week, but It will be
necexsary for him to return again for
the purpose. He will also have to go to I
Audubon, Cass, Montgomery, Hiirrlson and
Shelby counties, and will be an extremely
busy man If he succeeds In finishing his
work before July 4. He will thu not
be able to take his seat in congreas until
sotn time In July. .
The question of who will be Judgn
Green's successor I Just now Interesting
a good many people, many of whom would
like to be chosen by Governor Carroll for
the place. The number of applicants has
Increased In tha last two days. Immedi
ately after the election, Thomas Arthur
of Harrison county was the most favor
ably mentioned for the place. Now J. B.
Rockafellow of Atlantic, A. L. Preston of
Avoca and Judge Culllson of Harlan have
appeared and are being urged for the ap
pointment. It Is possible that Governor
Carroll will withhold the appointment un
til late In July, as the spring terms of
the court have all been concluded and with
the exception of Tottawattami county,
where court la continuously In session.
only four terms are held a year and the
autumn term will be next.
REWARD MONEY TO OFFICERS
Fire and Police Commission Follows
Saarajestlon of Chief Froom aftd
Chaoses Its Plan.
Council Bluffs police officers will here
after Ret 'all of the. rewards enrneit tn
the capture of criminals and the other
things for which rewards are offered. The
Boara or Fire and Police Commissioners
held a meeting vesterdav TT1 0 1'T1 1 n fir SinfY
decided to use the discretion given by the
decision of Judge Green and order the
distribution of the rewards among the
men. Instead of following tha practice
of turning all such money Into the police
pension fund. .
The matter has been before the courts
since last spring when Captain Shafer In
stituted a friendly suit seeking a court
Interpretstlon of th law creating th pen
sion funds for the fir and pollc depart
ment. The law was somewhat ambiguous
and apparently directed th pension bureau
to take charge of all police rewards and
hold them fur distribution as pension.
Chief of Police Froom, as custodian of the
fund, held this view and ordered all re
wards to be so disposed. When the matter
was considered by the commissioners they
sought to follow a jniddl course and di
rected the chief to hold up half of the
rewards for th benefit of the fund and
return the other half to th men of the
department earning It. It was this phase
of the case that waa presented to Judge
Green. The contention of Captain Shafer
and the men was that all or non should
go to the pension fund. Judge Green's de
cision left the matter whrlly In the hands
of the commissioners as th plainest In
terpretation of the law. lh decision waa
rendered early last spring and the com
missioners have taken no action until
now.
There perhaps woold have been no fur
ther consideration had It not been for a
vigorous opinion from the Judge advocate
of th military post at Fort Crook. Sev
eral rewards for the capture of deserter
l.-om the army were sent to th depart
ment to be paid to the men. These went
into the general fund and the Judge advo
cate's attention was called to It He at
once realized that It was noLJn accordance
with th purpose of the rewards, which
waa to spur the officers to a sealous dis
charge of their duties, and declared that
such a disposition of the money would
not b approved by the Ynlted State
courts and offered to procure an opinion
from a federal Judge,
It waa when this view of the mattei
was presented to the commissioner that
th decision wa reached to let each man
have the benefits of his own work. There
were strong arguments on the other side.
It was pointed out that only th members
of the detective fore and a small favored
few could have the opportunity to make
arrests where rewards were promised and
that the majority of the pturolmen could
receive no benefit from money thus
earned unless it came through th pension
fund. ,
