New York, April 13. General Frea
erick Dent Grant 'will be given a full
military funeral in this city and will
be buried at West Point, where mili
tary services also will be held. .This

general's military aide, had held a
. consultation at the Hotel Buckingham

8. Grant, III., who arrived from Wash
ington. The funeral will be delayed, how
ever, for ten or twelve days, it was

Telegrams to Widow.
Tho general's widow was the recip
ient of hundreds of telegrams and
other messages of sympathy from all
parts of tho country. One of the first
telegrams to be delivered to Mrs.
Grant was from President Taft, dated
from the White House. This message
read:
"Mrs. Taft and I extend to you our
heartfelt sympathy in your great sor
row. We mourn with you and cherish
the memory of him that has gone and
of our long friendship for him. He
rendered great and loyal service to
the country. WILLIAM H. TAFT."
From Oyster Bay, L. I., came this
message:
"We are Inexpressibly shocked and
grieved. Tou know what an affection
we have for you both.
-THEODORE AND EDITH ROOSE
VELT." Lieutenant Howze said: "The ap
parent mystery connected with the Ill
ness of General Grant was due only
to the fact that It was hoped that by
' withholding the address of the general
from the public he would be protected
from the worry incident to the receipt
of mail, the transaction of business
and similar intrusions."
General Carter May Succeed Grant.
Washington, April 13. The death of
tleneral Frederick Dent Grant vacates
the post which, next to that of chief
of staff, Is regarded as the most Im
portant In the army commander In
chief of the great eastern division.
This position is of such importance
that it cannot long be permitted to
remain vacant, hence it is probable
that very soon after the funeral It will
be necessary to detail an officer of
high rank for the position, probably
Major General William H. Carter, now
assistant chief of staff.

CLARK LEADING THE RACE.
H Has Eighty-four Dlegatea to Baltimore-,
Whila Profsssor Wilson
Has Ten Harmon Nona.
Washington, March 30. The action
of Kansas Inst week in Instructing her
twenty delegates to vote first, last and
all the time for Champ Clark for pres
ident has placed him far In the lead In
the presidential contest, and the politi
cians about the capltol are predicting
that Professor Wilson will never be
able to overtake him. In their opinion
the Wilson boom exists more in tho
printed matter his headquarters sends
out than in the hearts of the Demo
crats. At present Clark has eighty
four delegates to the Baltimore con
vention instructed for him, while Pro
fessor Wilson has ten and the other
candidates none at ail. Missouri, Kan
sas and Arkansas have declared for
Clark. Oklahoma gave Cinrk ten and
Wilson ten. It is believed that the ef
fect of Clark's growing boom will be to
start a general scramble to get into bts
band wagon. A mouth ago he was
looked upon as merely a promising
(ark horse, while now he seems to be
getting Into a position where be may
have the race to himself.
President Taft said months ago thnt
1 he and Mr. Clark would be the oppos-
ing candidates in the coming election.
CLARK LEADS IN IOWA.
The Big Spsakar Gsts Nearly All Dele
gates Elected to the State Con
vention Up to This Time.
Des Moines, la., March 30. Up to
this time 22G delegates have been elect
ed to the Democratic state convention
of Iowa. Of this number Clark has
180 and Professor Wilson 37. This
proportion will probably keep up. It
Is the general opinion In Des Moines
that Clark will carry this state, till-
i nols. which takes action April 19,
seems certain for Cinrk, as all factions
of the party in that state are agreed
on him.
KILLED fN HIS FIELD
Knox County Man Dragged to Death
Under Harrow.
Bloomfleld, Neb., April 15. Jake
Rose, a farmor living two miles north
east of this city, was killed while har
rowing on his farm. He went out to
work after dinner and In the evening
his wife went ont to the barn and
found the team standing near a fence
and the body of her dead husband lfi
Ing on the harrow with his head bent
down under two bars of the harrow
He had evidently been dead for sev
eral hours, as the body was cold and
stiff. It Is not known how the accl
Sent occurred, but the supposition Is
that he must have stumbled and fell
1 over the harrow, stunning him. and
' while In this unconscious condition
his team walked off towards the barn
' dragging his head under the harrow
Cruelties In the Congo Stopped.
London, April 15 The Rev. J. II.

which roused the conscience of Eu
rope, but states that much still re
mains to be done.

FIGHT IN IOWA

. tion Contest Very ... Close Eight
'Counties Hold Democratic Conventio
Des Moines, April 15 With the
Holding of county conventions in Mus
catine, Marshall, Cherokee, Floyd and
soma other counties in Iowa the last
of the conventions for the Republican
state convention are disposed of.
These conventions were carried by
the. progressives and they sent dele
gates for Cummins. This caused no
surprise since their action was fore
shadowed In caucuses, save as to Mus
catlne, where an effort had been made
to secure a divided delegation.
John Briar, secretary to Senatot
Cummins, stated that this settles it
positively that the progressives will
control the state convention and
choose four delegates at large whe
will be for Cummins for president
The Taft people claim they have a
majority of eighty. The convention U
unquestionably very close.
Every one of the ninety-nine coun
ties in the state has held its conven
tion. Statistics that have been com
piled by disinterested persons give
Taft 741 delegates Instructed and
pledged; Cummins, 716 delegates in
structed and pledged, and Roosevelt
24 delegates. With the Roosevelt
delegates, Cummins' total on this estl
mate Is 740. There are 1,481 accred
Ited delegates to the convention; 741
en ballot will elect.
Taft leaders In Des Moines who
have kept account of the county con
ventlons, figure the president will have
a lead of 45 votes in the convention
The Taft statisticians Include In theii
column the entire Pottawattamie and
Franklin delegations and divide Dallas
9 for Taft nnd 8 for Cummins.
The Cummins followers claim thai
the delegation to the state convention
Is to vote as a unit for Cummins. They
claim a big division in Pottawattamie
and say the Dallas delegation haa
agreed to vote as a unit for Cummins
on a question of resolutions, although
there may be a division on preference
for delegates.
Democratic Conventions.
Eight counties held Democratic con
ventlons to select delegates to th
state convention.
Two counties Webster and Appa
noose Instructed their delegations foi
Clark; Marion elected a solid Wllsoi
delegation, unlnstructed, and the otb
er counties divided and did not in

Fruits Give Fine Promise.
Apples, grapes, cherries, plums, cur
rants, gooseberries and rtrawberrli
will be grown In large quantities Id
Iowa this year, according to Wesley
Greene, state horticulturist.
For the last month Mr. Greene hst
been collecting data from the hortlcul
turlsts of the state regarding the man
ner In which the fruit trees, planti
and vines pulled through the severe
winter.
The fruit buds on the peach treei
were all killed and there will be no
peacheg In Iowa this year, he says.
European nnd Japanese plums will be
poor in yield, but the more hardy
American species will bear a normal
crop, according to Mr. Greene. Black
berries and red and black raspberries
also will fall far below normal In
yield, according to the observer.
Mr. Greene says that all ground
plants that were not covered by the
snow, or protected by coverings from
the severe cold, suffered greatly.
Notable Trial to Commence.
The trial In court of Emmet Flood for
conspiracy In connection with the
strike of button workers at MuBcatlne
la scheduled to be commenced very

cago Socialist who went to Muscatine

salesman, attempted to talk over a
long distance telephone from Marshall
town with his wife at their home In
Des Moines. He failed to get an an
awer. and an Investigation disclosed
tiie dead body of the wife In the bath
room of the house. Heart failure was
given as the cause.
ALDR.CH ASKS FOR WATER
Governor Makes Plea to Secretary of
Interior Fisher.
Lincoln, April 13. -Governor Aldrich
called on Secretary of the Interior
Fisher and urged the claims of sot
tiers in the ijri(;ated section of west
ern" Nebraska to" the surplus water
from the Pathfinder dam. The govern
ment has alnrady a-onssbtuVto let' the
Interstate Ditrh company have water
enough to supijlv lands already under
Irrigation culrvafton,' 'hd after con
siderahle pressure had agreed to fur
nish water for all kinds along that
it.-h which nre already occupied by
settlors. As there Is still a surplus of
water t?ie ditch rompany wants water
to.lrrlgnte lands which are not occu
pied, that they may be sold and give
prortunity to settlers.
Kono of the Irrigation companies on
the north side of the river has enough I
wt'T durirs dry seasons, especially
triii); Hie months of July, August and
September, when beets, potatoes nnd
he most proritable crops need it the
wort. There is plenty or water in
the reservoir, hut government engi
neers are inclined to hold it for the
benefit of b.nds not yet Improved and
which belong to the government In
Wyoming.
Secretary Fisher assured the gov
ernor he would see to it that actual
settler who hr-d land under the ditch,
but with Insufficient water, and those
who wanted water to turn onto the
and to make It fruitful, could have it
as long ns there was any to give from
the Pathfinder reservoir. He said that
f such settlers would make out the
proper statements under oath and for
ward them to the Interior department
they would get results.

ENTRIES BEGIN
Holders ol Humbers in Pine Ridge
Lottery Make Filings,
OFFICE OPEN AT WHITE RIVER
Towns Bordering on Ceded Lands
Taxed for Several Weeks to Care
for Prospective Homesteaders Gam
bling Prohibited in Most of Towns.
Sioux Falls, S. D.. April 15 The
work of making entries on several
hundred thousand acres of the Pino
Ridge and Rosebud Indian reserva
tlons In Mellette and Bennett covin
ties, which last year was ceded by the
Sioux Indians and ordered thrown
open to white settlement, commenced
this morning.
Iast fall the land was disposed of
hy a government land lottery, but
those who drew farms of 160 acres
each there were not permitted to make
formal homestead entry of their lands
until today. Commencing today a cer
tain number of numbers will be called
each day, and those who hold the num
hers, which were given out as the re
sult of the land lottery will be per
mitted to make homestead entry of
the farms drawn and selected by them
All Towns Crowded.
For several weeks the holders of
numbers have been gathering In tiie
town adjneent to the tracts which are
to be occupied in the two counties, and
since last week the rush has been un
usually heavy. The towns bordering
on the ceded lands are being taxed to
their utmost In caring for tho number
holders. In order to reduce lawless
ness to the minimum all games of
chance have been prohibited In most
of the towns during the entry period,
and those detected gambling will be
prosecuted under the state statutes
and punished to the full extent of the
law.
For the convenience of those who
were fortunate enough to draw farms
automobile lines have been established
from the nearest railroad towns, and
by this means the holders of numbers
can easily reach the ceded lands In
the two counties, inspect the opened
territory and make their selections of
farms. After they have done this they
can officially have their selected tracts
set aside for them by appearing at a
temporary United States land office,
which was opened for business this
morning In the new town of White
River, Mellette county. Although the
new town l situated at a point some
what remote from the nearest-railroad
lines, the automobile transports
tion lines furnish an easy means of
reaching White River.
When the holders of numbers have
their numbers called at the temporary
land office at White River they will be
permitted to make their selections,
and the government officials In charge
of the temporary land office will give
them a certificate, which will enable
them to make formal entry on their
farms at the United States land office
at Chamberlain.
Every provision has been made by
Ihe government to expedite the work
of having farms assigned to those
who drew numbers and the vast work
Is expected to progress without a hitch
and without the slightest delay, so all
the holders of numbers can secure
their farms In the shortest possible
time.

Hon. W. D Jsmlcson. D- Moines.
Ml Dear 81r 1 have taken the
time to think over the political sit

''tha definite conclusion, that (tUa,
dtate should support the lion.
Champ Clark for president. Our
riqli-gntlon to the Baltimore conven
Ytlon should, every one of them, ag
gressively support his candidacy.
This Is emphatically Clark terri
tory. His versatility and wide ex

acquaintance with the public men
ot the country and his thorough,
understanding of the motives of
those who represtYit the almost ofn- .
nlpotent "interests" motlvca which

mitted pre-eminently , qualify him
for the high position. 1 say thla
not with nny resentment toward

not be Introduced or considered.
The path of duty Is plain. Let us
