Political Notes.

GUllllCdl MUGS.
Des Moines, June ia consensus of
impression prevailing in political cir
cles is that either Dolliver or Shaw will 4
be the vice presidential nominee. Init
nations have filtered into the, state
from the east which indicate that Shaw
is being talked Of to a considerable ex-
tent
The Iowa delegation at the national
convention is preparing to, leave for
Philadelphia. w. o. Payne was IN the
lefty yesterday and said he would so
| tonight. He will probably be the first
member on the ground. Governor
Shaw will go to Chicago early this
week and after a day at Cornell Col
4 lege commencement, will go on. Other
members of the delegation have ar
4 ranged to go the middle of next week
getting them to Philadelphia for Sun
day.
4 A Chicago dispatch says: While the
Dolliver boom is in full blast the Chs
cago Inter-Ocean in an editorial nomi-
mates Governor Shaw for vice presi-8
dent. 1t says the governor can hold
4 the German vote for the republicans"
/ Ex-Governor Francis NJ. Drake is a
! visitor in the city. He looks better
A than at any time during the last three
A years at the time of his visits here. He
says that he finds himself in an encour-
aging physical condition and by care
4 full and continual dieting is able TO
ward off the attacks which afflicted
him soon after leaving Des Mones. He
will spend the week here, attending
the commencement exercises of Drake
a University and is a guest at the home
of his sister Mrs. Carpenter.
4 "Dolliver believe to be the strong
A lest man In the nation for vice presiden-i
4 tial candidate" said Gen. Drake. II
thought with hosts of other people a
4 short time ago that New York man OF.
4 some eastern state man ought to be
Nominated. 1t occurs to me now, how
4 ever, that the thing for the party to do
is to nominate Dolliver. He is in con
{ dition to give the democratic populists
the fight of their lives. He could sweep
81 the west with his magnificent oratory
He can discount Bryan twoito one as a
4 speaker and in joint debate could tear
carry the western states, in my opin5
Lion.
II recognize the force OF the uoins
made by the friends Of Speaker Hem
! derson, continued Gen. Drake. but /
am certain that Delivers nomination
would not affect the speaker any. II
Iowa has the men who are the natural
: leaders to scontrol the house and senate
and the congress and government OF
!. the United States why should we not
! have them in Washington attending to
their duties? 1 appreciate the fact that
d Dave Henderson with his great heart
4 and magnificent unseltishness wouldn't
say a word to deter any Iowa man from
:. being a candidate for speaker even If it
!, did hurt his chances for reelection.
Dave Henderson would do anything for
la friend.
II Ex-Governor Drake has justreturned
: from a winter in California. He spent
several months on the coast and in
Texas ard other southwestern terri
tory.
Il w. w Morrow, of Alton. candidate
q for state treasurer, was i'll the
city half of Saturday. He ex-
pressed the greatest confidence
A lin the outlook for his candidacy.
He said he wasn't worrying Il bit about
y the secretary of state middle, for he is
I. fighting his own battles and attending
to his own interests. He said that he
! had received encouraging reports from
some portions of the state which led
y him to believe that his strength would
leone from almost every section. He
came in Saturday morning and went
Il .out in the evening. He is making a
! agniticent campaign
Headquarters of the republican state
central committee will be opened this
L week in the Equitable building, third
floor.
$ The Iowa delegation viii leave Des
Moines in two special cars on Thurs
3 day. June II, and will arrive in Phila-
!. ldelpha early saturday morning. ! IS
! probable that the headquarters of the
delegation. to a certain extent. will be-
come Doiliyer headquarters.
Hon. w. III. Red1fian who was in the
: city yesterday, said that everything was
Hooking well for him in his candidacy for
secretary Of state. He said he was re-
81 ceiving every day encouraging news
q from every part of the state and was
Blconfident that he would be successful
. When asked if Senator Carroll, of Davis
, county, was candidate for secretary
Iof state, Mr.. Redman said that he WAS
not. He said: When I first thought OF
coming out for the office, l saw bysons
Iof the Des Moines papers that Senator
4 Carroll was in the list of posslble can
didates. | Immediately took the train
flor Bloomfield to ascertain il this was
Itrue, because with two candidates in
the field from the Sixth district, neither
OF us could reasonably expect to win
and | did not want to antagonze Mr.
! Carroll II he had decided to make tho
race. Senator Carroll and are the hes,
: lof friends, both personal and political
When I met him he was very emphatic
in saying that he had not given out the
information saying that he was a can
didate; that | was the first man he hat
talked with concerning it; that III. was
not a candidate. but that ne would sup.
port me, and he saw no reason why
should not have Davis county. Senator
Carroll Is editor of the Bloomfield Re.
publican and postmaster at that place
and ! do not think he would consent Il
, be candidate under any circumstan.
