I
time ba haa roma to Des Moines there has
been a considerable sprinkling of repub
licans In the audience. Democrat are loath
to admit that the republicans sre more
anxious to buy the tickets than are the
democrats, but tha fact Is that It 'a causing
them some alarm.
It waa planned to have tha occasion
great one when the democrats from sll
over the state would gather to show their
enthusiasm in the cause of democracy a
well aa to hear the man who has been the
leader of the party for twelve years with
out holding political office. Incidentally,
It was Intended that the gathering should
err tha purpose of putting new enthusi
asm Into the party followers. But the party
follower have been somewhat slow to buy
tha tickets. Republicans who are ever
ready to listen to Mr. Bryan a a great
orator anxiously buy ticket to the ban
quet The tickets have been put on sale
under the rule of first com first served.
Not till the democratic convention meet
in Cedar Rapid on March M will It be
possible to tell which wing of the party I
In control of the state convention. Resolu
tions passed In the democratic! county con
ventions admittedly mean nothing in most
cases so far as control of the slate con
vention Is concerned. Bryan Volunteers
are active everywhere stirring up enthusi
asm and endeavoring to get tha Bryan en
thusiast Into the field to control the state
convention, but much of the work amount
to a groping In the dark.
Jtet Loyal Bryaa.
When a republican county convention
meet and paasea resolution they are either
for Allison or Cummins, standpat or pro
gTeeslve, and It 1 thus possible to tell
within a frw vote who will control the
tate convention. With the democrat
every democrat professes to be for Bryan.
The Bryan men are conducting the most
difficult political fight they ever had on
their hands. Conventions meet and adopt
Bryan resolutions and then aolect dele
gates who would vote for any nominee for
(resident that the corporation auggeated
In opposition to Bryan.
"The fact Is we dont know and won't
know who will control the democratic state
convention till after It meets," said a Bryan
man here today. "In many cases through
our frlenda In a county we are able to tell
from the delegatea aelected to the atate con
vention who they are. But there are other
counties In which delegatea of unknown
affiliations slip In here and there. We sus
pect that in most cases these delegatea are
In fact anti-Bryan. The real . Bryan men
are very vigilant and endeavor to aee that
only Bryan men go aa delegate, but in
many countlea thl I Impossible. All pro
fess to be for Bryan and tha convention
get together an select delegates and adopt
Bryan resolutions. The contest for posi
tion s delegates to the state convention
Is mostly friendly, and no one knows who
the delegates stand for.
We believe that we will control that
state convention and we intend to make
the fight of our live to see that the dele
gates aelected from the state convention to
attend the national convention at Denver
are dyed-ln-the-wool Bryan men. We
mean to tie them up with Ironclad resolu
tions, but, in addition, we propose to ee
that all the delegates are auch aa will stand
by Bryan till nominated or defeated."
Dlatrlbatlaa Books.
Secretary of State Hay ward yesterday
began the distribution of the . volumes
ordered printed by the legislature giving
the speeches and other proceedings of the
dedication of the monuments erected on
southern battlefields to the memory of Iowa
soldiers who fell there in battle. The edition
of the work consist of 7,000 volume, and
It will be about aa hard as finding a needle
in a hay stack to secure one.
The legislature provided that each mem
ber of tho legislature ahould ba given ten
copies. That will take 1,630 coplea. One
copy goes to every newspaper In the state,
which will take 1,100 more. One copy goes
to each of the 260 libraries of the state, 950
copies to the member of the monument
commissions, fifty to the member of the
official party, U0 copies to the state official
and 1,000 copies are to be stored.
This will leave about 2,100 copies for distri
bution. This distribution Is to be made
through the executive council and applica
tion must be made to the secretary of atate.
It is proposed to give the old soldiers of
the state first chance, and if there are any
left the general public will have a chance
to get at them. But the chances are there
will be none left. Juat what purpose the
legislature had In mind in ordering 1,000
copies stored In the document room is diffi
cult to ascertain. The volume la well
printed and bound in half-leather, and In
future years the speeches and other infor
mation that it contalna will be far more
valuable to the historian than at present.
To License Aceonntnn's.
When the next legislature meets it 1 pro
posed to have Introduced a bill to license
accountants. It la proposed to create
another atate board to examine accountanta
and give them certificates. Merchants and
cities and boards of supervisors want the
law. They aay that many people who
claim to be accountanta can't figure the
simple sums in Ray's arithmetic. When they
hire an accountant to make an examina
tion of their books they don't know whethor
be Is a real bona fide accountant or not.
It Is therefore proposed to provide for a
state examination. Such a board would
not have to be In aesslon except when mak
ing the examinations. The expense would
be nothing to the state, as the feea from
the examinations would pay for the work.
Expert accountanta are much more in de
mand lately than In former years. Now
that the state haa come to be settled up
and public business haa become more com
plicated, countlea and cities, in addition to
big business concerns, quite frequently
want experts to go through their books.
Michigan, New Tork and a dosen or more
other ststes already have such a law.
Salt Agalast Habbells.
The fight between the Milwaukee rail
road and the Hubbells of this city has
broken out again by the action of the Mil
waukee In filing ault In the district court
here against the Hubbells, charging that
they sold to themselves $250,000 worth of
stock of the Dea Moines Union railroad
for the sum of S3.00O, and thua gained con
trol of the Des Moines Union. The fight
Is one of old standing. The suit, however,
brings out new allegation. The ault was
started by Judge Cook of Cedar Rapids,
for the Milwaukee. The stock of the Des
Moines Union waa in the possession of the
Des Moines, Northern 4 Western railroad,
which waa controlled by the Hubbell Inter
ests. They were thus able, it is alleged, to
make the transfer without the other ma
jority stockholders knowtng anything about
It. The road asks that the Hubbella be
compelled to transfer the stock back to tha
Des Moines. Northern & Western at the
same price.
Des Molne Gets Batter Makers.
Dea Moinea is to get the 1909 convention
of the National Buttermakerw' association.
which was In session In St. Taul during
the last week. The selection was left to
the executive board, which will also fix
the date. Thla will pnbably be some time
In March. Des Moines Is also endeavoring
to aecur the National Dairy show, which
will be aome time In October.
Miner Will Strike.
It seems def4nltly certain that the coal
miners of Iowa will strike on April t The
miner and the operators will meet In this
city March U, and each will appoint a com
mittee which alii then hold a Joint sieet
Ing. The contract between the miner and
operator expire April 1 and since th
scale of wages I based largely on tha east
ern scsle, and lnce the eastern people
hve failed to agree and a strike is Inev
itable, a shutdown seems Inevitable In
Iowa. Operators have been preparing as
well as they could for the contingency.

John Dlffenbaugh, a well known eltlsn of
this place, ha lost faith In clairvoyants in
genera, and one. Prof. Faye. In particular,
atnee the loss cf (ISO. which, he alleges,
wae fraudulently taken from him Saturday
by "Medium" Faye. In giving his life
reading the medium persuaded Mr. Dlffen
baugh to place the above amount In what
he termed a hott panyanobi (luck bng), the
same to be held for safe keeping by Mr.
Dlffenbaugh himself. But It seems it was
necessary that the aafe disposition of the
money be made In the bag by th medium,
who was then to return the bag to Mr.
Dlffenbaugh, who was not to open It until
Sunday afternoon at I o'clock. When th
bag waa returned to Mr. Dlffenbaugh he
decided to Investigate right then and there
and found Instead of tho good coin he had
seen placed In the bag a lot of worthless
paper. He Immediately notified the police,
who vlstted the medium's apartment, but
he wa "not, in." nor haa he been alnce.
It waa thought last night he had been
located at Vlllaca, but th party under
suspicion waa not Prof. Faye.

Dope Stories Exaggerated.

Dr. P. C. Johnson of Tecumseh, who I
chaplain of the Nebraska penitentiary, says
the current stories concerning the whole
sale use . of morphine and other drug by
Inmate of the prison Is a terrible exag
geration of the facts. Dr. Johnson says
there are not to exceed ten habitual drug
users In the penitentiary, and he doubts
If there are that many. Perhaps some few
others use the "dopes" occasionally, as
they can get ' hold of them. For the ac
commodation of the habitual users, that
there Is an established method for the ob
taining of the drug from tho outside, the
chaplain does not doubt. The prison au
thorities would be greatly gratified at being
able to ferret out the plan.

J. O. Casey, Thirtieth and R atreeta, wa
seriously stabbed early Sunday morning a
the result of a quarrel with some Austrlans.
He was on hi way home, according to hi
story, when he met the Austiiana, five or
more in number. , Not more than a word
or two passed between them before the
fight began, the Austrian using knives.
Casey received a long cut In the back, but
this was a deep flesh wound only. One of
his arm wa stabbed through. . After the
affray hi assailant ran away and have
not yet been apprehended. He managed to
rouse some of the neighborhood and waa
taken to th South Omaha hospital, where
his wounds were dressed. He was able to
give little account of hi encounter, except
that it waa fierce and sudden, and so far
a he knew, uncalled for. .
Th police, however, have another version
of the affair. They say that Casey and
hi companions, . several young men of
pugnacious mind, had determined to "clean
out" the Roumanian of that vicinity. They
attacked a house where several - of that
nationality lived and threw brick through
the window. The Roumanian, or Aus

In which Casey received hi wounds.

People who have a profound respect for
life or property sometime are very care
less about destroying reputations, which
may be much more valuable than life
or property. Within the last fortnight
there haa been an unusual activity

may not, be some foundation to aome of
the stories, but It is . safe to- guess that
the most of them are untrue. This is

it become such. But on general princi

THE SAFEST OF HOTELS
The SI. Regis, New York, the Highest
Type ol Fireproof ConstrneUon.
COMFORT COMBINED WITH SAFETY
In no class of buildings are provisions
for preventing or extinguishing fire more
necessary than in the lofty modern hotels.
Realising this blulders have made spe
cials efforts to render such structures
fireproof. In New York City many of
the great hotels built in recent years
claim to be so perfectly constructed that
fire Is out of the question, but none
offers such absolute safety in this direc
tion as the St. Regis, at Fifth Avenue
and Fifty-fifth Street.
The builders of this magnificent hotel
were not satisfied with simply comply
ing with the stringent municipal building
laws, but went far beyond In providing
against fire. Steel, marble, concrete,
bronze and wire glass were the principal
materials used, and all wood was treated
by the moat approved fire-prooflng process.
To add t6 the safety of this great hotel
the beat-known fire fighting apparatus Is
supplied, and employes are put through
regular fire drills at frequent Intervals.
Th St. . Regis Is therefore one of the
safeat hotels in the world, and, as safety
la a great contributor to one's comfort.
a moat comfortable place In which to
live. In addition to absolute safety, the
St. Regis offers an exceptional cuisine.
perfect ventilation, quiet, refined service
and surroundings.
In view of these features and the fact
that moderate restaurant prices prevail
and that a good room with outside view
may be had for U a day, cr the same
with private bath, for IS a day ($6 for two
people), or a parlor, bedroom and bath for
$13. It Is little wonder that the St. Regis
has become the most popular of New York
hotels.

This is the day of the gentle in x
medicine. Cascarcts have
supplanted physics. They act in a
natural way, not with harshness.
Most of our dull days are due to inactive bowels.
Nearly all of our minor ills could be avoided by a little
candy Cascaret. v
Also, half of our greater ills.
Isn't it foolish to suffer, when there is such a pleasant
way to avoid it ?
Cascarets save the hours.
They save the time that we waste if we are not at our
best They bring: good cheer. For the blues and ill
temper rarely occur when the bowels are properlj
helped.
They make the breath sweet, the complexion dear,
the eyes bright
All this for ten cents per week.
In the old days, people let matter run until they needed a larva
dose of physic.
Then they took something- severe like castor oil, salts or cathartic.
That meant abuse to the bowels.
These are the days of the gentle and naturalthe days of Cascaret.
Carry a box always with you. For th right way to take them U
