number and It Is highly probable that
there will be close to 800. The; most
votes that the Porterfleld men are WILL
ing to concede to Smith is $50. The
Z Smith men ehrug their shoulders and
smile at this estimate.
Involved in the contest for the grand
schancellorships is that for supreme rep
resenrative Two supreme representa-
4ives are to be elected to succeed G. -.
! Pickett Of Waterloo and 4. b. Hanley
OF Upton, whose terms expire Jan. 4,
1902. Mr.. Pickett. having been elected
exalted ruler OF the Elks, does not de-
sire q reelection. It il the practically
/ unanimous sentiments. SO far as could be
learned yesterday, that =. B. Hanley
be given another term.
But while there is no contest over the
& successor to Mr.. Hanley there Is a lively
+ fight for the Pickett sucessSrship, and
the contest is. more or less involved with
that OF grand chancellor. Hen + Sal
finger was busy yesterday working for
I saiinger and Porterneld. he being one
OF DR.. Porterfeld.s enthusiastic friends.
The friends OF both say that both will
be elected and there areso Tiers who de-
clare that siltnger will be elected
whether Posterfield 10 or not Opposing
{ Mr.. salinger is Col Luther ~. Baker. of
waterloo. and F.. ]. Blake, Of Fort
Dodge. ME-. Bakers friends say that he
is the senior past chancellor who has
not been honored by election as supreme
representative and that he deserves q
reelection at this time. It is generally
understood that he is the candidate on
whom the Smith forces will unite, hut
this 10 not certain. +. y. Blake, of Fort
Dodge, IL another candidate for the Of
fice: he has done comparatively in lie
work az yet and has made no display
of his strength. Unless the Smith forces
combine on either Blake or Baker 1t is
{ practically certain that Salinger will
4 have the easiest kind OF victory, for
&. there 10 little question but that he will
y get the whole OF the Porterfield strength
and he and his supporters are confident
~ expecting more.
Apparently the contest for chancellor
does not affect other candidates beyond
that for supreme representative. So far
there ID no indication Of a complete slate
on either side. Frank Butler, OF Mus
catine. who is candidate for the Office
& of grand master-at-arms, will have a
rival In Otto Ternes, OF Dubuque. The
Corning, Of Cedar Falls, Is actively
working in the interest Of the Smith
forces. and this is the only "cog" which
has slipped from the machine" 1t be-
ing generally understood that DR.. Por-
terfeld Is the "machine' candidate. II
Z IL said that Mr.. Corning believes that he
owes his election to the help of the
Smith men and that he feels in duty

The D. o. K. x. parade was the fea-
\, ture last evening. It is estimated that
1900 people saw the brilliant and spec
tacular affair. The parade was easily
ahead of anything OF a similar charac-
! ter ever seen In Cedar Rapids. Red fire
< helped TO make 1t spectacular. There
were costumes that put the parade OF
Buffalo Bill to an everlasting shame.
There were circus wagons more thrill
4 Ing and amusing than Barnum & Bal
ley's. Dignity was given by a big squad
of Cedar Rapids "Foinest" and on the
