Hard to Find.

WAvERLY, Iowa, Aug. 10.--The district
convention OF the Democratic party in
convention here to-day is having some
difficulty in finding man willing to run
for congress against the present Repu b.
lican incumbent, David B. Henderson
Senator Shields was wanted, but he would
not accept, knowing the labor vote would
knife him on account of the part he took
in the fusion against the Knights OF Labor
years ago. Fred O'Donnel, of Dubuque,
would be a strong man n bur he is going
on the bench to succeed Judge Kenehan,
and will not permit his name to be used.
There is possibility that the convention
will adjourn without making nomination,
but it is more likely that some one will be
put up if only to record the Democratic
strength in the district

Moving Cattle.

Ell RENO, 0. T., August 10.-The three
troops of cavalry camped at Enid are pro-
ceeding very slowly toward ejecting the
great herds of cattle that have been graz.
ing in that vicinity. The action on the
part OF the soldiers has been delayed be-
cause the cattlemen are making all en-.
deavors to move their cattle herd. Since
Friday morning the Rock Island road has
shipped nearly 1000 loads from Enid,
Point creek and Crown creek. Some OF
the herds that started west from Enid for
the Panhandle were driven back on ac-
count of the intense heat and will be
shipped, although at considerable loss,
the owners claim.

KANSAS CRY, Aug. 10.-Hot winds con
tinue IN Kansas to-day to the great in

adyices from the state that lead them to
