DEMOCRATS PREPARING
Aggressive Congressional Campaign
to Be Waged In Iowa.

to Be Waged In Iowa.
Des Moines, Iowa, June No sign of
discord appeared at the meeting of the
democratic state central committee yes
terday afternoon, and 1t begins to look
as If there was some warrant for the pre-
diction of Chairman S. F. Mcconnell
that harmony would reign, in the demo-
cratic party in the state this year. The
selection Of Henry c. Taylor of Bloom
field as temporary chairman Is generally
regarded as conservative step and cal
culated to prevent strife among the Two
factions Taylor is expected to make a
speech that will resound with declarations
for all that Is supposed to be fundamental
with the party and to steer clear of sill
yer and questions likely to breed dissent.
The sentiment everywhere. expressed at
the committee meeting was that active
congressional campaigns should be
pressed in every district, and especially
in those parts of the state where there
are fighting chances Of democratic SUI
cess. The congressional conventions will
be held prior to the state convention, and
it Is thought the effect of this will be
calculated to keep the leaders in the diff
ferent districts more in harmony. IN
addition to Senator Claude Porter OF
Centerville, who has been, prominently
mentioned for the nomination against
Hepburn, several other candidates are
Porter can have the nomination If he
will take it, but he has been assured or
the nomination for county attorney in his
own county and he will probably prefer
to take that, since he is poor man ana
needs the Office, and cannot we'll afford
to undergo the outlay Of a congressional
campaign. j. H. Sullivan Of Creston and
". R., McGinnis of Leon are also men
toned. = " -. -. =.
. In the first district, in addition to John
J. Seerley of Burlington, congressman,
there is still. another prominent candl-
date for the campaign against Congress
man Hedge. This is John E. Craig, a
leading attorney Of Keokuk. Many ex-
pressions were heard at the committee
meeting in favor of Judge Wade OF Iowa
City as the nominee in the second dis
trict against RUMBLE, and for John r
Reese Of Abba. as the nominee against
Lacey. Eighth district democrats VIII
