Major Will Be Made to Put Both Feet
on the Platform.
DIES MONIES. The adherents of
1.-The Iowa idea in the sixth district are
not satisfied with Congressman Laceys
attitude toward the Iowa platform and
they are making the majors path toward
reelection rather troubled one. They
do mot propose to rest with the develop
ments at the recent district cont ference at
OttumWa, where the chairmen Of the diff
ferent county committees insisted on
Major Lacey getting squarely on the state
platform, under penalty Of non-support
through the campaign. When he comes
to speak again in Mahaska county, his
own county, he will be asked to declare in
unequivocatng terms to the voters that
he Is In sympathy with the Iowa platform.
This statement is made on the authority
Of one of the leading Cummins politicians
Of the district. He says the republicans
Of the district are in favor Of the Iowa
platform and while they will disregard the
affronts of Lacey towards Cummins in a
recent interview following Henderson S
withdrawal, and will Loyalty support him.
he must get on the platform with both
feet. He says the strength of Reese Is
hard to estimate and that the outcome In
the sixth district as between Reese and
Lacey cannot be predicted.
The long standing postoffice site ques-
ton in Des Moines has been settled The
new postoffice will be built on the river
front, between Walnut street and Court
avenue. The location now Is at Fifth
street and Court avenue, five blocks west
Of where the new one will be erected.
The new location is the one desired by
the residents Of East Des Mo1nes. The
locating of the federal building, on the
river front is understood to be a direct
o11to If ho n n
spring between Congressman Hull and
Judge Prouty. #. NJ Hubben, who has
river front property, assisted Hull ma
terially In the campaign, and 1t is said
was promised that the postoffice would
be put on the river front. In addition to
this, the East Des Moines precincts are
those from which Hull has drawn most
largely for support and in aiding the
| river front movement he has undoubtedly
strengthened himself considerably.

nounced the establishment of new de-

one will be at Cherokee hospital and will
