ONLY ONE CONTEST IN STATE CONVENTION
Democrats, on the Other Hand, Are
Badly Divided and Action at
Wright nt St. Loots Aggra
vates the Matter.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
DES MOINES, July 17. (Special.) The
two state conventions to be held In Iowa
this week present strong contrasts In at
least one respect. The republican state
convention In Des Moines will be as free
from factionalism as the democratic con
vention at Iowa City will be full of It The
republican state convention will be held
on Wednesday. There will be nve candi
dates renominated either by acclamation
or on one ballot. Of these only one could
be properly classed as belonging to the
standpatter faction which controlled the
May convention In Dee Moines, but such is
the good feeling produced by the work
of the national convention at Chicago that
there has been general agreement to drop
all factionalism. There may be a second
candidate named for state treasurer, but
the present Incumbent has such a long
lead that this will attract absolutely bo
attention. Two of those who will be re
nominated are residents of the Ninth dis
trict, one of the Tenth, one of the Sixth
and one of the Third. They are thus well
scattered about the state.
The fight for state railroad commis
sioner Is being conducted without any
reference to factionalism. Dr. Porterfleld
of Atlantic Is the only one who could be
suspected of being of the standpat faction.
He will have a strong following in - the
state because of his wide acquaintance.
N. 8. Ketcham of Marshalltown was an
original follower of the late Senator Gear,
but also kept with his county In support of
Governor Cummins. But the entire cam
paign Is being conductsd without reference
to factionalism, nor have the special inter
ests which usually become mixed up In
contests for railroad 1 commissioner been
consulted, and they have not taken any
part This one contest before the conven
tion will be fought out fairly.
State Committee Reorganisation.
So also In the matter of reorganisation of
the republican state committee it is likely
there will be no change. The committee Is
as nearly evenly divided as possible, the
anti-Cummins men having one majority
on the committee. A contest Is on In the
Fourth district, where an effort is being
made to supplant a revisionist by a
standpatter, and a similar contest Is being
urged In the Second district. Aside from
these two little contests there Is nothing
doing. As for the electoral ticket this
year but little haa been heard, and There
are only a few candidates.
Democrats Are Glaring.
On the other hand the democrats meet
at Iowa City on Tuesday and the factions
are glaring at each other. While the St
Louis genet al result gave great encourage
ment to the regulars, or gold men, the
Hearst, or free silver, men are still full
of fight As the convention Is being held
In the home city of Judge Wade, the
lone . democratic , congressman : from Iowa,
his friends are doing all they can f o 'allay
the feeling and to have a harmonious con
vention. But the, action of a portion of
the Iowa delegation at St Louis In ex
posing the fact that Iowa is divided and
the regulars were for Parker, caused
much bitterness. It Is expected that this
will crop out as soon as the making of
nominations commences. The gold men
have virtual control, but will have to
play "politics adroitly or they will make
a bad job.
Committee Divided.
The democratic stabs committee still
has its two heads. It Is the plan of lead
ing democrats, however, to meet at Iowa
City Monday morning and hold confer
ences with a view to effecting a settle
ment of the trouble. A. W. Maxwell,
since the St Louis convention, appears
to be more determined than ever to hold
to the position of state chairman, but as
the committee Itself Is dead against him,
and most of the leading democrats are
saying that one who fought Parker so
hard should not be chairman, his chances
are very small.
No Candidates.
The democrats are not discussing any
candidates, unless It Is the name of Bam
Wright of Tipton for secretary of state.
The Parker men would like to see him at
the head of the state ticket. He would
go out and make a hard campaign for
Parker and they know he would have his
heart in It. Wright's nomination might
offend some of the Hearst men, but
otherwise it would be regarded as the
proper thing. H. J. Stiger of Tama will
probably be temporary chairman of the
convention at Iowa City.
Seventh District Polities.
After the nomination of John T. Mul
vaney by the democrats for congress In
the Seventh district, E. B. Howard of
Ames has announced his intention of sup
porting that ticket and abandoning the
Idea of making the race Independently?
He says that the platform adopted by the
emocrats suits him very well.
Party Leaders to Speak.'.
A general meeting to ratify the Chi
cago ticket has been arranged by the re
publicans of this city under the auspices
of the Polk County Republican club on
Tuesday evening, before the state conven
tion. The principal speakers will be
Governor A. B. Cummins, Ex-Speaker IL
W. Byers and Ex-Speaker W. F. Eaton.

steamship rate war and the unusually
crowded conditions of the steerage result
ing therefrom, additional Information on
the subject of ventilation will be welcomed
by the United States medical authorities.
When the experiments are concluded re
ports will probably be made to the United
States Marine hospital service, which fills
the place of a National Board of Health,
receiving weekly reports from the local
boards of all the large cities and compiling
the Information contained therein.
Light and Air a Necessity.
The widespread movement against con
sumption has forcibly drawn public atten
tion to the fact that the exclusion of light
and air, or their admission in Insufficient
quantities. Is primarily responsible for the
growth of tho disease, and the success at
tending the open air treatment Is undoubt
edly responsible for the Investigations now
being made by the city Boards of Health
for the purpose of securing the proper
ventilation of public places not only with
a view of protecting healthy persons from
breathing a germ-laden atmosphere, but
to obviate the necessity of their inhaling
vitiated air from which the life-giving
qualities have been exhausted with the at
tendant evil results.
. Much good has already been accomplished
In this direction by the municipal authori
ties In the tenement districts and In the
public schools, but little has been attempted
until now with other places of a public
character. Consequently, the result of
these experiments, especially In Brooklyn,
New York and Boston, will be awaited
with much Interest by the publlo In the
hope of an amelioration of the physical
discomforts resultant from Improper ven
tilation of cars, places of amusement,
churches, schools, etc, and by scientists
because of the additional light which may
be thrown on the general subject and on
Its relation to the public health.
Surgeon General Wymun .of the United
States Marine hospital service is presiding
officer of the organization of State and
Territorial Health Officers, which meets
annually under act of congress, and in
view of the general Interest In this subject
and Its Importance It is possible he may
appoint a special committee fn ventilation
from these officials. ,

second Sunday since his nomination waa
spent quietly. He had conferences with
John W. Kern of Indianapolis, who Is his
guest and William F. Sheehan and with
Maurice Minton of New York, who at
tended the St Louis convention and Is said
to have come to Rosemount on a political
mission. Mr. Sheehan visited Rosemount
this afternoon for half an hour, and later
Judge Parker visited Mr. Sheehan's home.
The question of who Is to be chairman
of the national committee waa not consid
ered today. That question will be dis
cussed at the conference of leaders,
which is to take place In New York tomor
row. Mr. Sheehan will go to New York
tomorrow and Mr. Kern will go by boat
leaving Rosemount landing at 6:90 o'olock.
Judge Parker will not attend the con
ference. Mr. Kern this afternoon said that he
came from ' Indianapolis on business In
Albany, and It was at Senator David B.
Hill's suggestion that he visited Judge
Parker, whom he had known for nine
years. He and the Judge, ho said, had
talked a good deal of politics, but had not
talked of the national committee chair
manship. He had not come here, he added.
In the Interests of National Committeeman
Tnggart of Indiana, nor to suggest to
Judge Parker who should be national
chairman.
It was pointed out to Mr. Kern that the
newspapers had, intimated that August
Belmont was out of the race for chairman
and It might be possible that Mr. Taggart
would have charge of active work In the
west and Mr. Sheehan In the east. Mr.
Kern said nothing, but nodded his head
In a contemplative way.
Parker Attends Church.
Judge Parker attended churoh services
at Kingston this morning, going to the
Mission Church of the Holy Cross, of
which hl3 son-in-law. Rev. Mr. Hall, Is
the rector. He was accompanied by Mra
Parker. - Mr. Kern accompanied them as
far- as the church, where he waa met by
former State Senator John J. Llnson of
Kingston, who drove him through the city,
pointing out Interesting places.
The trip to Kingston was mads by the
party in Judge Parker's launch Nlobe.
Many strangers were In the church, at
tracted by the hope of seeing the presiden
tial candidate, and all except a few who
did not know of his presence stopped to
shake hands with him after the service.
The Parker party reached Rosemount at
2 o'clock, when lunch was served.
During the services a small colored boy
dropped a coin In the collection plate
passed by the judge and left the ohurch as
soon as the vestrymen had taken tho col
lection to the altar, grinning broadly as he
went. It is said here on what appears to
be good authority that Judge Parker has
not Invited Tammany Leader Charles F.
Murphy to come to Rosemount.
