He'turns from all counties In the state give the standpatter 77H delegate In the state convention to'MUtt for the progressives. Standpatter loet the Fourth district, which wae believed would lard In their camp last night. Cherokee county was divided, five stand patters to alx progressives. Humboldt. Kmmct and Ida counties were carried by progressives with but little opposition. Audubon waa carried by the standpatter. The Blackhawk county convention fol lowed the agreement made between stand patters and progressives and aelected dol e gates consisting of twelve progressive and alx tnapatr. Adair county ad jected a axlia standpet delegation. The convention heartily Indorsed the Rooae velt administration and Instructed dele gates for Taft. In Winneshiek county, where it was ex pelled the standpatters might win, Ih convention waa controlled by the Cum mins people. The lnatructions were for Cummins for senator ind for the progres sive district delegates. The Howard county republican conven tion waa In complete control of the progressives and elected Cummins dele gates, as they did In Clinton county. The Blackhawk eounty convention waa ;itlrcly harmonious, acceding to the n&reement between the two factions. The j-rogresilves captured twelve delegates and the standpatters six. The resolutions favored Taft for prealdent and Pickett for congress, but were silent on the sen atorshlp. , , Worth county aelected a progressiva delegation, but adopted no Instructions for United States senator. The county con vention at Tipton, In Jonea county, practically unanimous for Allison. In Muscatine county sixteen delegate, all of them atandpattera, were ohoaen. Scott county, with Its quota of twenty nine delegates, is llnod up In the stand pat column. Cummins carii'd It two years ago. - Cedar county named fourteen standpat delegatea to the convention. Calhoun county also selected nine delegatea, who will support Taft and Allison In the state convention. The Buchanan county con vention was controlled by the standpat ters, and the twelve delegates from that county will be added to the standpat column. In Delaware county the' atandpattera had practically unanimous control of tha county convention, there being only seven Cummins delegates in 110. v Standpatters have carried all the coun ties they claimed today with tha excep tion of 8helby, which was divided equally. ' The Seventh district congressional cau cus wu held in Dea Moinea Saturday and aelected two progressive delegatea to the national convention. Progressives will contra the Fourth, Seventh, Tenth and Eleventh districts, giving them eight out or twenty-six delegatea to the national convention. Supportera of Senator Alli son are all much elated today. They say that tha result is a standpat victory in very respect and that if Senator Allison carries tha primaries In June It must ba by tha practically solid lupport of the tandpatters and that the progressives will be lined up for Cummins. Interest la Bryan's Visit. Republicans are responding much more readfly to the purchase of tickets to the big Bryan-Jefferson day banquet to be held Ih this city April 2 than are the democrats. The woods seem to be full of republicans who wish to hear the Nebraskan. Every ' -"'-- H PrTi Most of our ambltiout young American girls work too hard at school. Many teacher have little or no judgment about pushing a child beyond her endurance. They ought to know that girls especially hav a danger period. Often, too often, utter physical collapse is the, result, and it takes years and years to recover lost vitality. Many a young girl has been helped over this critical pe riod,and been pre pared for a healthy womanhood by LYDIAE.PlNKHAr.VS VEGETABLE COMPOUND Miss Elsie I IIook,of Chelsea, Vt, writes to Mrs. Pinkham: MIan only sixteen year old, but I want to tell you that Lydia E.

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. press1 Seea Cera Waralaa. Prof. P. O.

TBCUM6EH, Neb., March 18. (Special.) 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.

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. (Established iS;a.) - Cum WhtU rest Ssea. Whoopln9Cough Croup, Bronchitis, Cough, Diphtheria, Catarrh.
