NO SPECIAL PRIMARY IN IOWA
Benatorship Will Be Threshed Out in
Open Caucus.
LIST OF PROBABLE CANDIDATES
tor T'i Tfmpsrarf Appoint
meat Believe to Bo Ilsndt
pay t Ills F.l
tlon. (from a Staff Correspondent.)
PES MOINES, Nov. 27. (Special.) There
la now but very little doubt that the. mat
ter of the Bfnntorlal succession In' Iowa
wyi be nettled by an open caucus of the
republican member of the legislature and
that there will be no aperlal effort made
to refer the matter to the people at a spe
cial primary or to bring about a deadlock
In the hope of leaving the matter open
for a lot of aspiring candidate two years
hence. There has been a ureal deal of gos
alp about a probable deadlock In the legis
lature, but most of this has been Inspired
by hops and has been given circulation
because of persons who believe that In
this way thwy would have a chance to get
Into the game two years " hence. The
thought, however, of having Iowa only
half represented In the senate will operate
to prevent any failure on the part of the
legislature to exercise Its constitutional
bltgatlon to elect a senator.
Nearly all talk of having the legislature
elect someone merely as a stop-gap has
lso ceased In recent weeks. There was
aome talk of having the legislature elect
one of the older republicans like Governor
Larrabee or General Dodge or Henry Wal
lace, with an understanding he would not
be a candidate a year hence, but this Idea
has been abandoned,
Knrlv Canons Probable.
The present outlook is that early In Jan
uary a caucus of the republican members
of the legislature will bo held; that there
will be a considerable field of candidates
tinder consideration; that the legislators
will exercise a perfectly frte choice In try
ing to secure for the 'senate the very best
and most representative republican In the
state. There will be nobody barred, no un
due Influence exerted anywhere and there
will not be any effort anywhere to have
factional lines considered. In fact, all who
are giving the matter any thought what
ever are Insistent that there shall be no
factional lines In Iowa, but that the spirit
Of President Taft's letter of last summer
hall be observed and that one republlcun
hall be considered as on a pur with every
ether as to republicanism.
The newspaper gossip in Iowa has been
along the line of trying to make of the
election a factional matter, but member of
the legislature deprecate this.
Todbi'i Appointment n Handicap.
There Is very little doubt that - In the
legislative caucus the leading candidates
for the place wiy likely be Governor War
ren Garst, Attorney Gt-neral II. Wr. Hyers,
Senator Lafe Young, Congressman R. II.
Hubbard, Lieutenant Governor George W.
Clarke and possibly Major John F. Lai-ey
or Congressman A. F. Dawson. Borne of
these are of one faction and some of an
other. The fact that Lfe Young was appointed
Is believed by aome to be a handicap to
him, as some of the members of the legis
lature will feel that it was an effort to
forestall the action of the legislative caucus '
and to force a situation that would be em
barrassing. Besides, the majority of the
members of the legislature do not feel any
too friendly to the governor and will not
be disposed to accept his decision as bind
ing. On the other hand, there Is Borne
sentiment now being worked up along the
line of keeping Young in the place for the
short term and the long term on the theory
that he represents the extreme opposite of
Benator Cummins and would offset and
balance him in the senaie..
A strong candidate is likely to be Gov
trnor Clarke, provided he decides upon,
ntering the race, though he is not saying
much about It. It has been thought possi
ble that an effort would be made to com
bine upon htm In opposition to Young and
to secure for him the solid support of the
majority of the caucus and tho state organ
ization in general. Clarke would be en
tirely acceptable to Senator Cummins, ex
oept that he halls from an adjoining county,
which would not be very desirable.
Uartt Popular In .North,
The strength of Governor Garst lies In
the northern part of the state. He is im
mensely popular with the republicans in
those parts of the state where the repub
lican party Is extremely strong. There is
no doubt but that he was the choice of
the majority of the voters two years ago
for governor and was defeated only by
the accident of alphabetical dli-advantage.
And, again, he was urged into tiie race
this year by an overwhelming sentiment
and only failed because of the sentiment
for a second term.
Attorney General Byers is regarded as
the most able of the entire list of candi
dates, for his legal training is of High
quality and he has had a great amount of
public, experience. It is expected he will
be a candidate, but he has not said so
as yet.
Every perton mentioned for the place is,
in fact, a good republican, and It Is un
likely an effort Will be made to cut anyone
out of the race on the ground of not being
regular or firmly grounded In the principles
of the uarty.
( nniiulns Will Talk on Rates.
Benator Cummins goes to Washington
next week. He has no very definite pro
gram of legislation or letjlslatlve work.
There are some matters left over from last
year which he hopes to have taken up,
but realizes that in the short session much
will have to give way for the important
matters of the session. He is prepared to
make an address before the Interstate
. Commerce commission outlining what he
believes to be the true principle in the
natter of fixing rail rates. He is regarded
everywhere as an expert in this matter.
He has given much time and study to tiie
subject and is prep: I d to give an excellent
legal discussion of the question of low
to arrive at a basis for fixing railroad
rates.
Btlllnian in Lead for Speaker.
It Is practically settled that 1'aul Btill
man of Greene county, editor of the Jef
ferson Bee, will be the next speaker of
the house of representatives In Iowa. There
were others considered, but the only one
seemingly In the race is Ernest Moore of
Cedar Rapids, u'no will hardly be able to
secure enough support to make It worth
while. Moore at the last session organized
the house.
There will be an interesting contest over
state printer and binder. For state primer
Sam Greene of Chariton and Lars Bladine
of Webster City are candidates, and for
binder John Jamieson of Guthrie county
has the lead.
Suspended for Gimd Keaaon.

lease. Judge Mel'herson has suspended the
ten months' sentence he Imposed on Albert
Vanderberg, convicted of bootlegging The

sisted that th's be paid.
legislative Members llusy.
A great many of the members of the
legislature have been in the city the lust
few days securing rooms and getting ready
the legislative session in January. The
outlook Is good that the orgsnliatlon of
the legislature will be effected without de
lay and the speaker will be named :'. one
ballot. The members are saying very It
tie as to the senatorial matter, but all re
publicans are Indicating Intent to choose a
good republican In caucus and not put tiie
matter off until a later time.
farmer In the l.ralslatnre.
There will be a larger number of farmers
in the next Iowa legislature than of any
other class, fifty-five of the elected mem
bers having classified themselves as farm
ers. There are forty-four lawyers and
twenty bankers In the legtslat ure. For
once there Is not a doctor In the house, but
three In the senate. There are seventy
eight of the members of the two branches
who are natives of Iowa. Next week the
state executive council will complete the
list of members and publish the same.
I.ooltlna for 'Poasnma.
The annual Jeff ligan possum supper
will take place again next month provided
the possums can be secured. Mr, Logan
has the promise of ten possums from some
western Iowa point and insists upon hav
ing the home-grown possums if possible for
his feast to the politicians, l.ogan Is Jani
tor of the senate cloak room and his an
nual suppers given to the leading poli
ticians of the state are great features.
Believe Amendment W III Pass.
Rev, H. II. Sawyer of the State Anti
Saloon league, who has been working for
the adoption of the prohibitory amendment
by the legislature, has secured an expres
sion of opinion from most of the mem
bers of the legislature and he is confident
that the amendment will be adopted by the
legislature. He has not secured plednes
from a majority of the members, but a
sufficient number that would Indicate It
will go through. The opponents of the
amendment do not admit that there s
any danger of the matter being brought
to a head at the next session.

BALTIMOHE, Nov. 17,-The movement
in bring to Baltimore the representative
democrats of the country. In and out of
congress. In n gathering that will nrcsent
an opportunity to rejoice over the rscent
deinociatlc victory, and to Interchange
views ns to the future, was placed on n
definite, foundation ludiiy.
The committee In charge headed by flov
ernor Crothers, after a conference with
Norman L. Mack, chairman of the demo
ctatlo tintloniLl Committee, and Chump
Clark of Missouri, adopted a form ot In
vltatlon to be sent to the leading demo
crats In all the states.
Acting on the advice of Mr. Mack ttnd
Mr. Clark, the conference Idea originally
considered was dropped, and It was deter
mined to make the occasion a national
Jackson day eelebrstlon of democratic,
achievements.
The plans, Indorsed by Chalrmiin Mack
and Mr. Clark, contemplate a mass meet
ing at the Lyrlo in the afternoon at which
speeches will be made to be followed by
a batuiuet.
Knt Conference.
It wss thoroughly understood that the
Baltimore celebration will not be In the
nature of a conference, the result of which
will bind or commit either the democratic
party or the Individuals participating
therein. v
It was further understood that there
sre to be no resolutions adopted, no per
son boomed for the presidency, or for
other office, and no resolutions passed In
dicating or outlining a platform. Like
wise It was made plain that no section
of the country and no element of the
partyls to be overlooked or left unrepre
sented, but that the gathering will be
open, free and devoted solely to tne pro
motion of party unity and harmony.
It Is proposed to send Invitations to every
democratic member of the present con
gress and of the next congress of both
the house and senste; to Invite every
consplclous leader of the ratty In the
country, regardless of their differences In
the past, and to extend a welcome gen
erally to democrats who desire to keep
alive the present triumphant spirit of tho
national democracy.
Governor Crothers said tonight they had
been nsked over here to consult with the
committee, who desired their co-operation
In a movement which It was believed would
be of benefit to the democratic party
throughout the country, In that It would In
spire democrsts everywhere to stand
shoulder to shoulder for the great fight
that Is coming two years hence, when the
opportunity will be presented the party
to regain control of the government by
the election of a democratic president. He
assured Mr. Mack and Mr. Clark that
there was In the minds of the Marylanders
no motive save that of party harmony,
that Maryland had no candidate for presi
dent nor vice president, and that it has no
desire to foment factional strife and discord
by pushing any on forward st this time
nor even Indicating a preference.
Smith Favors Proposal.
Benator Smith declared the proposition
was one which every democrat should sup
port. "No harm can come of inch a meeting as
we propose," he said, "and it may easily
be productive of the greatest good. The
democratic party ha just achieved a great
victory. This victory Is but preliminary to
a bigger fight two years hence."
Senator Rayner, Congressman Talbott and
Chairman Vandlver spoke along similar
lines.
Chairman Mack expressed his desire to
co-operate with ths Maryland democrats
and declared himself ready to do anything
that would promote party harmony and
success. He pointed out the dangers in the
holding of a "conference" and declared
that to attempt to Indicate policies or
formulate a platform at this time would
be both unwise and unnecessary. Friction
and discord would Inevitably follow.
The suggestion that a celebration be held
of the democratic victory In the nature
of a Jackson day banquet and mass meet
ing, however, met with his hearty approval.
As chairman of ths national oommlttee
he felt that to lend himself to any plan
that would look like an attempt to com
mit the democratic) party to any particular
policy or man would be ridiculous. To the
plan of a general celebration and ratifica
tion of the party victory he felt he could
lend himself without Impropriety or criti
cism and would gladly do It.
Clark Expresses Views.
Representative Clark declared that he
felt that a conference of self-appolnied
aeiegates wno met at ths edge of one
part of the country would not be a wise
move from ths standpoint of democratic
harmony. He favored a Jackson day cele
bration In Baltimore, to which should be
Invited the leading democrats of the coun
try. H declared his desire to co-operate
with the Maryland democrats in what ha
considered a thoroughly commendable
move and asserted his unqualified belief
in the entire unselfishness of th mo
uvea mat nave inspired th movement.
Th members of the local committee pro
pose to start to work at one with th
determination of making th mass meeting
and banquet th biggest of th kind ever
held In th country.

A Hunt peach, it came from one of the finest orchards of
California. It was ripened in the golden sunshine of that Golden
State. It was allowed to mellow while it hung on the tree. It
was carefully picked, then knife-peeled; then put into a can con
taining the richest of cane-sugar syrup, which was then hermet
ically sealed. You can only Buy this kind of peach in cans that
are labeled
Hunt's Quality Fruits
"Thm Kind Thmt Im NOT Lyw PMfed"
"Now, why is it," you say, "that I cannot get this same sun-ripened,
mellow, full-flavored fruit under any label?"
The anwer is simple: Many packers think it cheaper to peel their
peaches by dipping them into a concentrated solution of lye; but a mellow,
tree-ripened peach won't 6tand this process, so they pick their peaches green.
Did you ever eat a" green peach ? It has about as much flavor as sawdust.
Ask your grocer for lust one can of Hunt's Quality Fruits. Pears, peaches,
apricots, cherries are all packed by us under the Hunt's Quality label. Once
you havfi tasted the difference between rich, 6un-mellowed, tree-ripened fruits
and the other kind, you will never want the other kind again.
They all cost you the same but, Chi what a difference in the quality.
Nearly every grocer in this city now carries Hunt's Quality Fruits. Ask
for them insist upon getting them and you will enjoy a pleasure of the,
palate you have never known before. For sale everywhere.
