THE CONTEST IN IOWA.
How Governor sherman Looks at the
Situation.

How Governor sherman Looks at the
Situation.
CHICAGO, Aug, 7.-Governor Sherman
of Iowa, was in town Wednesday, and in
speaking of political affairs in Iowa said
that the coming contest would be an exceed
ingly interesting one The Democratic
convention will be held the 18th of
this month, and the Republican con-
vention the 29th. The principal
Democratic candidate for gubernatorial
honors is Senator N. A. Merrill, of eli nton
Gov. Sherman spoke highly Of him, saying
that he was an old soldier and first-class
man in all respects The governor emphat-
ically denied that he himself was candi-
date for denomination, and maintained that
the choice of the Republicans lay
between Judge Larrabee, Gen. Given
and Speaker Wolf, with LARA
bee probably a little in the lead
Given was very popular with the soldiers.
He had been drummer boy in the Msxi-
can war; and served all through the civil
war. The old temperance question would
come forward prominently in the coming
campaign, and was apt to cause the Re-
pubhcans some trouble. The governor,
however, thought the Republicans
would remain firm and stand by the pro-
hibition law, and favor keeping it on the
statute books until it could be accorded 8
fair trial The Democrats were in favor OF
license, but could not agree as to whether
it should be high or low. This division ol
| opinion, the governor thought, would resuli
in bitter figh in the Democratic conven
ton and be split in the party.

AN INDIANA EPIDEMIC.
Eighty Persons Stricken with Peculiar
Disease-The Suggested Causes

PORTER, Ind, Aug. This immediate
locality is all torn up regarding very
peculiar disease which a fortnight ago
made its appearance in this little
town. The victims Of the malady
complained of general las ;itude and bilious
ness, and in the course Of day or two
were stricken with fever, accompanied by
diarrhPa. In all about eighty have been
confined to their homes from this illness,
and at present possibly forty are quite ill
Four deaths have occurred in Porter within
the last week. Two of this number
were adults and the others children
Many declared that the disease, which
seemed to be soUewhst in the nature
of an epidemic, was the re'ult OF
eating impure meat, and as q natural con-
sequence, the local butchers have been at
loggerheads with each other and the general
public as well. An investigation into the
condition of the town, however, shows it to
be in q wretched sanitary state. Offal of all
kinds is thrown out to rot in the streets,
bitches, and alleys, while stagnant water
stands in ponds at many places. The dis
ease is called by the doctors tedious flux,
and they expect to save all those now ill.
Opinions differ as TO whether diseased meat
is the cause, but an investigation is under
way, and in the meantime the town is un-
dergoing a sanitary overhauling
Cholera Ravages in Spain and France.

era, have fed the city. and thousands are
preparing to leave. Hundreds have moved
to the surrounding hills, and hundreds have
gone to Paris and Lyons. The death rate is
increasing. 1t is thought the Pharo hospi
