coventor of Iowa en ti republican t:c. t
the last wwk somen i:.t ruangi s the situ
ation and raises isst,. of a stair rharartrr
which will detract for th. .r.scnt from
the national ap,iMs of ihe yani.a.frn for
eslecrion of delt-saies. The new ent.y
Senator A. V. I'roudfoot, lives at fndian
ola, only Tiftccn miles south of les
Moines, while George W. Clarke, an
other republican candidate, lives at .Wei.
twenty-two miles west, and Prof. Holdm.
the independent candidate, lives at Antes
thirty miles north. All live In the same
congressional district with !cs Moire--,
so that they are bunched n-ar the state
capital.
Senator Proudfoot Is related to Ju.lse
Henderson, commerce counsel for the
railroad commission, who Uvea In the
same town, and who arts JT.OiXt a year
salary, and he has been closely associatr-d
with Senator Berry of the board of pa
role, who also lives In the same little
town and (ten J3.O0 a year. So the town
of Indianola promises to loom large on
the political map of the state.
Senator Proudfoot was one of the sup
porters of Senator I-afe Young In the
legislature. He was also one of the most
insistent opponents ot lite primary and jr.. j s fin
of the Ore plan of electins senators : bflGHcinCiOclIl XllKS
and this raises an Issue between Mm and j - , ,
Governor Clarke, who has been liberal In ! UftdiCiltB TllElF 1 PW
, .icrnv anu Iflli'lt Illl- pinna..
It is expected however, that Senator
Proudfoot will make his campaign larsely
on his record as the chamnlon of the
prohibitory amendment to the constitu
tion. He was defeated In his effort to
Induce the Inst letisntnre to adopt the
prohibitory amendment, and announced
he would carry on the fight. The adop
tion by the lr;slature would mean a "ay ''"'"rv It-
five-year campaign dn the merits nf state I Th'" s,;"'lil irremolile.- of the dedl

lienor rata Alas la the Held
The announcements of Crank O'fonner
of Chickasaw county and E. O. Ininn of
Cerro Gordo county as candidates fi
the democratic nomiantlon for governor
makes It certain these two men will make
a merry race. Both are unusually fine
speakers and It Is supposed they will
make a speaking campaign. Jlr. Dunn Is
a traveling man who has long been con
nected with the co-nneratlve movement
In the state and Is strong with the farm
ers In the north half of the state. Repre
se native (VConner was prominent In the
last legislature, especially for his having
pushed through the legislature the bill
for the Oregon plan for the selection of
United States senators, which was vetoed
by Governor Carroll. No other candidates
are expected, as either one of these men
would make an acceptable candidate -o
the democrats this year.
Wood row Wllaoa Plana.
The plans for the big demonstration In
favor of Woodrow Wilson next Friday
have now beta completed. Hu will speak
in the evening at the Coliseum and de
liver his address on "Bock to the People."
Delegations are expected from all over
the state to attend and here will be
formed a club to advance the Interests
of the New Jersey governor in this state.
The Champ Clark democrats are becoming
alarmed at the turn of affairs and are
making efforts to discredit the meeting,
but It promises to be a big demonstration.
Starting a Roosevelt aove.'
The only development in politics in the
state recently as It relates to the na
tional question were in the First and
Sixth districts, where it Is learned that
a number of the leading republicans are
seeking to make an arrangement by
which the delegates from those districts
may be men who would favor the nomi
nation of Koosevelt for president. Noth
ing Is known here as to the mesnlng of
this new movement, but It Is known that
a number of republicans have not been
satisfied with the trend of affairs and
believe that Roosevelt Is sure to win.
They are districts that under no cir
cumstances would be for Senator Cum
mins. Assssl Mine Wage Qarstloa.
Union misers of Iowa will meet In an
nual convention here on March It. They
will come prepared to demand a raise in
wages of 10 cents a ton and of 30 per
cent for day work. The operators will
refuse to meet that demand, and as a
result the mines of Iowa will all shut
down on April 1 until a new mage scale
Is agreed upon.
Will Back I a Hcnloa Bill.
The Iowa Anti-Saloon league will be
one of the state leagues to send repre
sentatives to Washington. D. C, March
4 to appear before the house committee in
behalf of the Kenyon-Khepherd Interstate
commerce bill.
E. C. Dlnwiddfe, who represents the"
temperance organizations of the United.
States as national legislative lobbyist, ha
secured a public hearing on this bill for
March 4. i and (, and has asked that !
each state league send three men to t;lve
addresses before the house commilti'e.
Thia Is the first time, writes Mr. Din
widdle to the Iowa league, that any def
inite time has been set when hearings
' on temperance measures should cease and
action begin.
