tKS MOINES, Sept. 18. (8peclal.)-Poll-.
tlcians are preparing to forget the United
States aonatorelilp and, with the exception
t a4monltlona on the eve of election not
. forget the separate ballot and a vote
i senator. It Is prouhecled that there will
ce nothing heard of the question between
now and election day In Iowa. It remains
to be seen whether or not the prophecies
will be carried out. There are some In the
state who, with the recollection of past
campaigns fresh In their mines, are skep
tical. Both Oovernor Cummins and Major Lacey
have publicly announced that they will not
mention their antagonist in the campaign,
and both will be on the stump till election
day under the direction of the speakers'
bureau of the state committee and will
speak for the election of the entire repub
lican ticket.
Politicians think It especially fortunate
that the standpatters selected Major John
F. Lacey, for there Is no man In the state
who Is considered ss being more represen
tative and typical of the standpatters than
he. The Issue therefore Is Joined as a clear
case between the progressives and the
standpatters, with nothing left to be done
but for the. people to register their vote.
While both candidates are of this mind it
Is recognized that it will be difficult to In
duce Die newspapers on both sides to treat
the matter In that way, but It Is believed
that for the most part the newspapers will
be busy with the other details of the cam
paign and will not be given to making
personal attacks or stirrUig up factional
ism. The state committee will muke every
effort to B-o that this Is done.

BAPTIST CHinCHi: TO I'XITE
Organisation of West Central Ions
Will Join Purees.
DENISON, la., Sept. lS.-Speelal.) In
accordance with the spirit of the times,
the Baptist churches of western-central
Iowa are about to united In one association
body. Rev. LeReau of the church at this
city has recently returned from a meeting
ot Woodward, la., where definite action
was taken to united the I'pper Des Moines
and the Western Iowa associations InlMie,
to bo known as the Des Moines Western
association.
The new association bounds will be ap
proximately from Ames to Missouri Valley
east and west, and Fort Dodge to Harlan
north und south. The first meeting of the
new association will be held nt Harlan
next September and at that time the fiftieth
anniversary of the formation of the. first
association In this part of Iowa will be
celebrated.
The present officers of the new associa
tion are: Rev. Robert Carroll of Fort
Dodge, moderator; Rev. LeHeau of Denlson
vice moderator and Ed W. Burcb of Rock
well City, clerk-treasurer. In the past the
separate associations had been meeting with
saventy-ftve delegates when all were pres
nt, but In tho future this number will of
course be doubled. There will thus be the
added power and enthusiasm of numbers
at the gatherings. There will be a special
program at the coming anniversary meet
ing, which wl make it noteworthy in Bap
tist history. There are twenty-five Baptist
associations in Iowa, four Methodist Lpls
copal conferences and ten presbyteries, and
the action of the Baptists is to have a less
number, but stronger associations.

Illinois Man Says Tariff is Real Issue

Mlnlmam High F.noeah to Protect
Labor stnd Maslmera for-4oaa
tries that Discriminate
Aaalnst I s.
TOPEKA, Kan., Sept. 18.-Speaker Joseph
G. Cannon of the national house of repre
sentatives addressed a targe audience here
last night on Issues of the campaign. The
speaker took tile tariff and American la
bor as his principal topics. "Uefare enter
ing into a discussion of these subjects,
however, Speaker C'unnon paid his compli
ments to William J. Bryan. Mr. Cannon
referred to Mr. Bryan as a cuttlefish. "You
know," he said, "that there Is a fish known
as the cuttlefish. When he is In trouble
he muddles the waters and swims away.
Mr. Bryan la a great muddier of the
waters. Why, I declare, If there had not
been any name for thccuttleflsh It would
be known as the Bryan fish.
"Some years ago," raid Mr. Cannon,
there was a contest between servile labo
and free sovereign labor. Those who had
servile labor knew that all that was needed
was some clothes and enough food to
maintain health. These people produced
cotton and tobacco, and It was their Idea
that there should be free trade so that
they could buy things cheaply and com
pete with the cheap labor In Europe. Ham
ilton and Washington and the old whig
party worked for years to protect Ameri
can labor. Lincoln drafted a platform, and
was elected on It, pledging that American
labor would be protected. The great civil
war was over a question of labor.
"The policy of the republican party has
always been the protection of labor. Since
the days of Lincoln we have had this
protection except for three years in the
last Clevelund administration." Under this
protection we havo grown so that last
year this country produced over one-third
of all the manufactured products and one
third of all the agricultural products of
the entire world."
Mr. Cannon declared that the tariff was
the real vital Issue of the present cam
paign. "What I would like to see," said Mr.
Cannon, "as shown In the platform adopted
by the republicans of my district, is to
revise the tariff so as to maintain pro
tection for American labor, but with a
maximum and minimum rate. We would
have a minimum rate that would protect
American industries and a maximum rate
for the products of these countries that
discriminate against American goods. Ger
many has such a tariff, and we ought to
have one lu this country."

Charare that Democrats Compete with.
Republicans for Trust Favors.
COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 18. Thomas His
gen, candidate of tha Independence party
for president, and William R. Hearst ad
dressed a meeting at Memorial hall tonight
under tho auspices of the local organiza
tion of the party. Mr. Hearst read letters
which he said had been written by John D.
Archbold of the Standard Oil company to
Senator J. B. Foraker of Ohio, referring
to legislation pending In congress and men
tioning two enclosures of checks, one for
$15,000 snti another for S14,5UO.
Mr. Hearst said: "We claim that the
republican party has been for a long time
the beneficiary of trusts' corruption and
that the democratic party has only waited
to share its sister's profitable Infamy. We
claim that the democrats are today eagerly
competing with the republicans for trust
favors.
"We claim that when Theodore Roosevelt
whipped the Standard Oil company out of
the republican party the democratic party
welcomed that convicted criminal with open
arms. We claim that the democratic party
killed for Mr. Rockefeller the fatted calf
and that there is more reJMcing over tills
one sinner who has Joined the democratic
cause than there is over the hundreds of
thousands of honest, faithful citizens who
constitute the democratic masses.
HILL TALKS ON AGRICULTURE
Magnate Says Country Will He I'nnble
to Feed Its Own People Unless
Yield ia Increased.
CROOKSTON. Minn., Sept. 18. "If I had
my way I would build a couple of warships
less, yet one would be enough, and I would
take the $3,000,000 which it would cost and
with In construct 1,000 schools of agriculture
within the United States," declared James
J. Hill, chairman of the board of direction
of the Great Northern railway at the dedi
cation of Stephen Hall, an agricultural In
stitution, here today. v-
Mr. Hill stated that with the present
birth rate the country would not be able to
take care of its own people, let alone the
prospect of exporting grain to Europe, un
less the farmers studied the science of
agriculture and learned how to raise more
bushels to the acre' than they are able to
do at present. "I believe we have seen the
last day In the history of this country," he
said, "when wheat will be cheap. Here
after No. 1 hard wheat will bring the W
cer.ta which It la worth at the present time
and even more, If the soil Is properly culti
vated." Mr. Hill declared further that the crops
of the last few years have been steadily de
creasing in the yield per acre and with the
many thousanrs of people who have come
Into this country to settle, most of the land
has been taken up, so the chance of ac
cumulating greater acreage upon which to
Increase the size of the crops would soon
be an utter Impossibility, even In western
Canada. The only solution of the problem,
according to Mr. Hill, Is to study the ques
tion and find out in what way the output
per acre can be increased.

EUROPEAN HARVEST SMALL
Reports Indicate Russia Alone Will
Reap Larger Amount Than
Last Year.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-The Kuropean
reports to the superintendent of agriculture
says that the wheat harvest over the
greater part of Europe Is already com
pleted. Prospects point to a smaller har
vest than last year In the United Kingdom.
Belgium, France, Italy, the Netherlands
and Tortugal. While Russia probably will
reap a slightly heavier crop of wheat than
last year and a materially larger rye crop,
there is no doubt that the results will be
below the average.

PRESBYTERIANS
SESSION
Political Questions Come 1'p for Some
Discussion.
EMERSON, Neb., Sept. 18. (Special.)
The Niobrara presbytery closed an Inter
esting meeting here yesterday. Out of a
membership of twenty there were' fifteen
ministers In attendance.
Rev. L. C. Porter, formerly of Laurel,
but now a socialist lecturer In Omaha, de
livered an address, which attracted con
siderable attention, on "The Duty of the
Presbyterian Church In tho Present Social
Crisis." A special Inquiry In regard to the
work and views of Rev. Mr. Porter was
taken, but after some discussion It was
decided to take no action at this time.
All of the sessions were Interesting, but
the meeting Wednesdsy evening attracted
the most attention. The subject discussed
was "The Mural Trend of Political Parties."
Rev. Samuel Light spoke eloquently, und
thought the political trend was decidedly
for the better. He eulogized President
Roosevelt as being the gieatest Christian
statesman of the age. Rev. V. A. Weir
of Rondolph discunsed more directly the
two great political parties. He thought
the liquor question the great Issue, over
shadowing the trusts, the tariff or financial
problems, and condemned Rooseveelt, Taft
and Bryan for not taking a firm stand for
prohibition. Rev. Wllllum Hearra made a
strong plea for home missions. The next
meeting will be Id at Stuart, Neb.
