Des Moines. Sept. 2S.-That part OF the
rapport of DR.. Patt srson to the stata
board OF control on his investigation of
the cost of county poor relief In Iowa,
which disclosed the fact that there are
st least seventy persons in the county
almshouses who are reported by over
seers or others to be insane, but have
never been SO declared by the proper
boards or who are not now classed as
insane in the reports, has caused in
quiry to be made as to the counties In
which this deplorable state Of affairs ex-
lists. These are the following counties,
according to DR.. Patterson's figures, in
which insane persons are kept at the
almshouses who are not c!assed as In
sane, with the number in each county:
Adams one, Appanoose one, Blackhawk.
ten, Boone one, Buena Vista one, But
Ter one, Chickasaw two, Clinton two.
Dallas one, Delaware four, Fayette two,
Floyd two, Fremont three. jackson one.s
Jasper one, Lee five, Linn two, Louisa
two, Mills three, Mitchell two, Monona
two, Page one, Scott four. Shelby eight,
Sioux one, Wapello three, Washington
one, Wayne one and Worth two. Under
Iowa laws these persons are illegally de-
tained, unless 1t can be shown that in-
stead of being insane they are other
wise defective and are not properly
classed as insane. The fact, however,
that in so many instances they are be-
lieved to be insane by persons who come
in contact with them indicates loose
ness in affairs that calls for some ac-
ton on the part of the state authorities.

providing her with good food and show
ing her every attention. The leader OF
the brigands told the correspondent that
unless a ransom Of s150.00O was forth
coming within thirty days Miss Stone
would either be put to death or COM
PEELED to marry one OF the brigands.

Iowa department at the national en-
,campment met with general approval,
tho, like all others. 1t went to the coun-
Gil of administration without action.
The encampment met on the day OF the
presidents death to transact business
and the feeling of Indignation over the
action of the anarchist was deep. Iowa
presented resolution providing that
the United States buy two islands and
remove all anarchists thereto. the men
on one and the women on the other, and
that they never have any knowledge of
what is going on in the world. Some
one moved to amend by adding that
the president have the right to blow up
the islands when all the anarchists are
located there. Another matter which
greatly interested the Iowa delegates
was that of selecting a communicative
chief. They favored Torrance, the Min

neighbor but because they did not like
the speech of Gen. Sickles in which he
attacked the administration from the
standpoint of the pension attorneys and
claim agents Sickles was forced to
withdraw by the indignant protests of

THE REPUBLICAN CONFERENCE
Attended by Many Prominent Party
Leaders-Work Mapped Out.

Des Moines, Sept. 2S.-The republican
conference on Friday was attended by
every member of the state central COM
mittee, by about fifty county chairmen.
Senator Dolliver, Congressman Cousins,
Conner Thomas and Rumple and other
republican leaders It was essentially
business meeting. called for the pur-
pose OF discussing practical affairs, such
as the completion of the school district
organization, arrangements for the
speaking campaign. assurance that all
the republican legislative nominations
are properly filed and other details of
campaign work. This meeting takes
the place of the district meetings OF
county chairmen, which have hereto
fore been held. This year 1t was impos-
sible, owing to the death of the presi-
dent, for the chairman to hold these
meetings in time to get the campaign

attendance Of County chairman was not
as large as was expected, and 1t is said
that the county chairmen prefer the
district meeting, because district affairs
can be better discussed in a small meet
ing limited to the district. The very
best spirit prevailed In the conference,
and 1t brought out the fact that the rec
publicans OF Iowa were never more
united.
Congressman Cousins, being called on,
said his time was at the disposal Of the
committee, as it had been for eighteen
years, except such as he must devote to
the Fifth district ."The best of feeling
prevails" said Mr.. Cousins, and our
prospects were never better. There is no
dissension in the party and we have lit

ever may be tolerated. All the people
want to be assured we are not wab-

1t Is safe to utter that word this year
without choking. OF course, we are all
against anarchism. No republican was
ever an anarchist. We are for protec-
tion, but against its abuse. We must
maintain our organization for the fu-
ture."
Col. w. G. Dows, representing Linn
county, declared that the county was
in excellent condition. 1t had made its

and would furnish the biggest majority
in its history, except in presidential
year.
Senator Dolliver said that we owe 1t

country to defend the platform on
which he spent his whole life. The sem
ator thinks there is now better oppor-
tunity to get hearing; that the people
