| Samuel Strauss. OF this city, was
| welded today In Rock Island to Miss
| Resented, daughter of a we'll known
| capitalist of that city, and the two will
go direct to New York, thence to
/ Esirope on wedding Journey. A num-
| Der OF Des Moines relatives and friends
| of the groom went to Rock Island to
attend the wedding. MIR. Strauss has
! lived In Des Moines all his life and Is
| the eldest son of NJ Strauss, the head
of the great millinery jobbing firm of
Lederer- Strauss & Co. Mr.. Strauss
from the earliest desired to devote him
self to newspaper work, and when he
and Allan Dawson bought the decrepit
old daily Leader he was in his element,
When the Leader was sold a little over
a year ago, or consolidated with the
Register. it had risen from the bottom
to the top and 1t was far ahead of Its
rival in circulation and influence. Now
Mr.. Strauss has acquired an interest
in the New York Commercial Adver-
tiser and has become general manager
of that newspaper property. Allan
Dawson has already been installed as
editor Of the paper and will devote
himself 20 its upbuilding in connection
with the work of Mr.. Strauss The
Des Moines and Iowa friends Of both
men believe they will prove greatly
successful In that field. No two men
have ever worked together In greater
harmony and with a more perfect un-
derstanding of each other than these
two men.
A few days ago Chairman A. e.
Jackson, of the democratic state com
mittee. received a letter from the
chairman OF the democratic state com
1nittee of Massachusetts. in which the
eastern man asked for some informa-
ton on how to get rid of fractional mat
tiers in the party. From all that we
can learn said the Massachusetts
man, you have succeeded in eliminat-
ing all the fractional feeling on account
of the coinage question. We would like
to know how you have accomplished
this feat" And this has been, quite as
much as any other one thing, the fea-
ture Of the campaign. for the democrats
have not had any trouble on the score
of differences about finances. Mr..
Jackson has been working to this end
for three years. and all his work of
last year was with view to prepare
ton for the campaign OF this year. He
now has the democratic party quite as
we'll organized in the state as the re-
publican party and believes he is in
position to put up big fight in the
presidential year.
On the day that the letter of AL
Swain, consul at Southampton, was re-
ceived by the governor, in which the
former editor of the Oskaloosa Herald
went on record as decidedly in favor
OF reciprocity and a liberal policy In
regard to the tariff, his former news
paper published an editorial under the
significant head,"Let the Tariff Alone.
About the same time the Dubuque
Times, which is pretty close to Sem
ator Allison, published an editorial
closing with this paragraph:
COLLECTION to the Iowa idea Is mere
ly pretense. The real object of at
tack is Governor Cummins. Had he
declared for standing pat the other side
would have taken up the cry for re-
vision"
Thus the campaign just closed has

inquiries as to the situation in the
northern district with regard to the
judgeship, but ! confess that have
been wholly unable to find out anything
reliable as to what is likely to happen. l
do not believe that anybody can tell
anything about the way it viii turn
out. Wright, Healey. Reed, Tongue
vile and Dawley are all in the race for
the appointment. l defy anyone to tell
just what will happen before the
congressman get thru with the case"
