Starts Wlthoat a Speech.
When the convention was called to order
a few minute after 11 o'clock by Oeorge 8.
Wright, chairman of the republican county
central committee, every precinct wa rep
resented by a full quota of delegate ex
cept Kane, outside the city, which failed
to hold it primary and select th one, del
egate to which it waa entitled. After read
ing the call Mr. Wright announced Attor
ney Oeorge H. Mayne a temporary chair
man and the convention selected Charles
Atwood a temporary secretary. On as
suming th gavel Chairman Mayne laid h
would refrain from making a apeech, as
there were bo Issues at present to talk
about. The convention then got down to
business and named the following com
mittees: ,

A recess wa taken for twenty mlnutu
In the belief that thla would prov ample
time in which for the commltteea to formu
late their reports. When noon arrived, how
ever, the committee on credential wa not
ready . to report, ao the convention ad
journed until 1:30. '
On the convention reassembling th com
mittee on credential reported that there
wire contesting delegations from Boomer
township and recommended' that both dele
gations be given seat In th convention
and permitted to cast on and a halt votes
ech, th township being entitled to three
vote. Th report and suggestion were con
curred in and the temporary organisation
wa mad permanent on th recommenda
tion of the committee on permanent organi
sation. No urprls wa manifested when ' th
committee on resolution ubmttted it re
port without including an antl-thlrd-term
resolution. It wa generally understood that
the agitation in thl respect had been
killed off during the early hour of the
morning before th convention. A toon
the resolutions reported by the commit
tee hsd been adopted Frank Turner of Knox
township offered the resolution endorsing
the renomlnatlon of Hon. O. D. Wheeler for
Judge of the district court, which wa en
thusiastically adopted. The committee on
delegate having presented It list for the
state, congressional and Judicial conven
tions, which proved agreeable to th con
vention, the work of placing the ticket in
nomination wa begun.
Paul Beerley of Oakland started the ball
rolling by auggeetlng that R, V. Inne be
renominated for county auditor by acclama
tion and thl wa done.
Next In order wss the nomination for
clerk of the district court and here It wa
thought the fun would begin. Freeman
Reed, the present Incumbent and candidate
for a fifth term, however, had things well
In hand and the nomination went to him
on the second formal ballot. It was de
cided to first take an Informal ballot and
thla resulted as follows: F. L. Reed, 78H;
O. O. Baird, S1H; H. V. Batter. 38; H.
M. Brown, 10; E. E. Bayles, 15. ,
The first formal ballot showed that II.
V. Battey, deputy clerk of the court at
Avoca and candidate from the east end
of the county had the solid vote of the
delegation from Orove, Knox, Lay ton,
Lincoln, Macedonia and Pleasant town
ship, but little strength In the city. The
ballot resulted In Reed Just missing the
nomination by one vote, the vote being:
Reed, 85; Baird, JT7H; Battey, 41; Styles,
; Brown, 9.
On the ssoond formal ballot Battey
drew from Baird and Brown, but failed
to beat Reed, th nomination going to
him with 87H vote, as against 61H for
Battey, Baird receiving 10, Brown 6 and
Saylea 8.
Elmer E. Smith had a walkaway for re
nomlnatlon for county recorder, as on th
Informal ballot he received 154 vote,
against fourteen cast for B. H. Bailey of
Loveland and six for TL H. Williams ef
this city. On motion the informal ballot
wa mad a formal on and Smith declared
the nominee.
Then .followed the nomination for county
attorney and It took two formal ballot to
settle It. Th Informal ballot gave W. H.
KUlpack, present Incumbent of the office,
79; C. P. Kimball, present assistant
county attorney, 61, and John M. Oalvtn
88. The Informal ballot developed th fact
that Klllpack'a strength lay in the) coun
try precinct, while Kimball had the best
of it in the city. The first formal ballot
resulted a follow: Klllpack, 85; Kim
ball, 62; Galvln, 84. The second formal
ballot gave the nomination to KUlpack
with nlnety-four vote, a against fifty
five for Kimball and twenty-four for Gal
vln. Allen Bullls and Henry C. Brande were
renominated for member of the County
Board of Supervisor by acclamation, the
former for the abort term to fill the va
cancy caused by the resignation of B. O.

CONDITION OF IOWA CROPS
Dry Weather Imperatively Needed for
Rlpenlna; and Harvesting; 1
Grain.
Th first half of th past week wa cool
and cloudy; th last halt was much
warmer with drying winds, and much mors
favorable for crops and field work on well
drained lands. The rainfall was variable
ranging from less than an Inch to over
etght Inches, about two-thirds ot the state
receiving very much above the normal
amount, and extensive areas on the Cedar
river and other stream have been flooded
causing damage to crcps that cannot at
this time be estimated
In general the crop situation has been
Improved in the larger part of the state
by a few days of dry weather and sun
sh'ne. The condition of corn is unusually
variable as to size and amount of cultl
vatlon, but probably three-fourths of th
planted area Is fairly clean and up to
normal standard.
Dry weather and sunshine are now Im
peratively needed for ripening and bar
vesting small grain and securing the
bountiful hay crop. Spring wheat In sec
tions where the acreage la largest has been
doing well, with moderate damage by rust
Oats badly lodged in the central valleys,
but the atate average is nesrly up te the
normal, and the output depends wholly
upon seasonable weather in the near fu
ture.
The potato crop is very promising,
though there are some reports of damage
from excessive moisture.
Crop correspondents, July 1, reported
the following averages of condition:
Corn. l per cent; spring wheat, 96; oats,
5; barley, 7; flax. 99; potatoes. 101; hay
crop, 89; pastures, 107; apples, 85; plums.

DAVENPORT. Ia., July 8. Th heated
discussion in th North American Turner
bund yesterday on the woman question
and church taxation were cool compared
with the contest precipitated today by an
amendment of Delegate Vahltech ot Chi
cago to a proposed declaration of the Tur
nerbund in favor of the freedom of the
press. A report of the committee on Bund
affair deprecated curtailment In the Phil
ippine and the United State of th free
discussion and publication ot matters of
interest, declared agalnct Interference by
the court and the executive department
with freedom of th press and the execu
tive committee was ordered to submit res
olution in accordance therewith to Pres
ident Roosevelt and to congress.
The Vahltech amendment mad reference
to the case ot Herr Most, declaring hi
Imprisonment to be a threat against every
newspaper. The amendment had the sup
port of th "red" Turner and waa hotly
opposed by th entire, conservative ele
ment. The convention snowed under th radi
cal wing by a vot of 128 to 108 on th
proposition to mention th case ot Herr
Most.
Th resolutions as adopted ar a fol
low:
Whereas. The freedom of the cress haa
been repeatedly handicapped, not only in
the Philippine lalands, but in th United
States, and
Whereas. The Nortn. American Turner-
bund baa alwaya advocated freedom and
rights of the people.
Resolved, That the Tagsataung of the
North American Turnerbund. In session at
Davenport, la., declares against contin
ued restriction or tne ireeaom oi tne press
by executive officers and directs the ex
ecutive, committee to submit these resolu
tions to president iiooseveil ana to con
gress.
Debat on th Vahltech amendment wa
very bitter disruption of th Turnerbund
seeming to threaten at times, the ques
tion of the domination of the socialists be
ing the Issue. i
The vote on the Vahltech amendment
waa decided against the radicals, 108 to
828.
Indianapolis not accepting the turnfest
of 1905, the test was offered to Newark, N,

it is safe to predict that the victim will eventually become helpless

in the joints and muscles causes the most intense pain, the knees and
