the ownership by the Bell of preferred

BRYAN LOSES HIS
. FIGHT ON GrUFfEY
(Continued from First Page.)
No other member of the committee was
given a demonstration.
Although there are "boomers" In town
for all of the avowed presidential candi
dates, the members of the committee
seemed reticent in discussing the situa
tion. There seemed to be an opinion that
democrats might well afford to wait until
after the republicans have made their
nomination In Chicago. It was argued
that It Mr. Taft were renominated It
might bo expedient for the democrats to
choiae an out-and-out progressive, if
Colonel Theodora Roosevelt were nomi
nated. It was said that it might be good
democratic policy to name a man "more
conservative" thsn the former president.
There appeared to be a unanimity of
opinion among the members that the city
to be awarded the convention must make
a definite offer of $100,000. llaltimore. It
waa said, was the only city that had al
ready done so.
Opposition to St. Louis.
Many members were hoping that St.
Louis would meet Baltimore's offer. In
which event It wss predicted St. Louis
would win the convention. There was
some opposition to St. Ixntls, however,
on the ground that both former Governor
Polk and Speaker Champ Clark were
presidential aspirants.
New York's chances suffered from a
feeling that that city was "too near Wall
street and too ilose to Tammany hall."
Champ Clark visited the hotel where
the committee Is meeting and paid his
respects to many old friends.

ORGANIZE IOWA FOR TAFT
Majority of Delegates From Hawk
eye State Will Be tot Him.
DUBUQUE MAN AT THE HEAD
John T. Adams Will Organise Com
mittee to Take Over 'the Work
Throna-hoat the State Chap
pell la Reappointed.
(Prom a Staff Correspondent.)
rEW MOTNKS, Jan. R.(8peclal.)-Ac-tlve
organization has slready commenced
with a view to securing the Iowa delega
tion to the republican national conven
tion for President Taft's renomlnatlon.
It N probable that the lead In the work
will be taken by John T. Adams o'f. Du
buque, who will organize, a committee to
take over the work. The last week sev
eral parsons have been here looking over
the ground and It Is understood con
ferences will be held at places In the
stats other then Des Moines to plan for
the work to be done.
It Is certsin that a majority of tho
delegates from Iowa will be In favor of
the renomlnatlon of the president; and
this will be trde even If the delegation
should be so made up that In case it Is
desired to present the name of Henator
Cummins for president that can be done.
A great niany of those who advocate giv
ing the delegation to the Iowa senator
! Insist that It shall be such delegation
i WH1 he for Taft In case Cummins Is
not formally entered In the race.
Nothing has been dons here to Indi
cate that Senator Cummins will, In fact,
ask for a delegation In his own Interest,
lis did not Indicate at any time that such
would be sgreeable to htm, though urged
to become a candidate. It would be
possible to secure a delegation that would
be primarily for Taft but ready to
present the name of Cummins If that
should be deemed advisable. As to
whether or not any organized effort will
be made In that direction nothing Is as
yct known.
Kslsrse tho Nhort Coarse.
The summer school short course at
Ames Is to be enlarged next year by
the State Board of Kducatlon and It
will be rnado Into a six weeks' course
Instead of two ' weeks. The principal
work will he done In the teaching of ag
riculture and domestlo science, as It is
found that a great many of the teachers
of the state desire to take special les
sons In these subjects. At the same time
the summer schools at both the State uni
versity and the State Teachers' college
will be improved. . The State Board .of
Education Is giving a great deal of at
tention to thees Incidental features of
the college life of the state.
Weather Bias Reappolated.
Dr. George M. Chappell, director of the
Iowa weather and crop service, also

bureau, was today recomiv.lsKioaed by

Health tonaitions
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
sn interview on the subject, made the
aMonlshlng statement that the reason
why so many applicant for insurance
are rejected is because kidney trouble is
so common to the American people, and
the large majority of applicants do not
even suspect that they have the disease.
He states that Judging from his own
experience and reports from druggists
who are constantly In direct touch with
the public, there Is one preparation that
has probably been more successful in
relieving and curing these diseases than
any remedy known. The mild and heal
ing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is soon realised. It stands the
highest for its remarkable record of
cures.
We find tl at Swamp-Root Is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad
vise our readers who feel in need of such I
a remedy to give it a trial. It is on oale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes
fifty cents and one dollar..
However, if you wish first to test Its
wonderful merits, send to Dr. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. T., for a san.ple
bottle, absolutely free. When writing
bs sure to mention the "Omaha Dailv
Bee."
