RUSSIA WON'T PARTICIPATE.
Foreign once Not Favorable To RoOse. velf's Proposal.

Foreign once Not Favorable To RoOse- Velf's Proposal,
 St. Petersburg, Nov. S,-Q:45 p. m)-- The Foreign Minister, Lamsdorff, has received through Charge d'Anaires Ed dy, the American proposal for a second peace conference at The Hague. to pro- ceed with the work begun in 1899. es pecially relating to the rights and du- ties of neutrals and other questions, like the bombardment of undefended coast towns. left undecided by the for mer conference.
 The note, it is understood. takes pains to avoid the appearance of desiring to wound the susceptibilities of Russia, the action of the United States having been prompted by the initiative of the St. Louis Peace Congress. No response has vet been made but there Is strong reason to believe that although Russia cannot show offense at the proposition from the United States at this time, in- asmuch as the United States was actu- ally at war with Spain when Emperor Nicholas proposed the original confer ence Russia will decline to participate so long as the war lasts.
 At the Foreign Office the opinion has been that a conference after the war would be profitable, enabling the pow CTS to agree upon many vexed problems but that it is impossible for Russia to participate during the war in con- ference whose tendencies will be to limit the activity of belligerents. The Emperor left St Petersburg this after noon for Wilma and Poland to bid fare- well to the troops. He will be gone a week.

Pierce and Christian were especially obliging in responding, and with bright. catchy ragtime. dispelled the gloomy mood of the audience.

 Interest of Negroes.
 The negroes took a deep. if imper- sonal interest in the election. oh- doubtedly many of them laid on rom work and stood about at respectaoie distance from the polls discussing the rosy chances of Roosevelt's election. They formed the fringe and outskirts of the crowd that watched The Adver- Users big bulletin in sheet last night. It Is needless to say that each one ol them was an ardent Roosevelt well wisher.

So far we have said nothing for
or against the amendment of the
constitution, to be voted on this
fall, providing for the biennial
election. A great many of the pa
it, and most OF them are, are accus.
motives. We do not believe this to
be true. We believe the editors are
in their beliefs as no
man would care to sell himself for
the paltry sum that might be lost
each year, but in reality is not lost
because, when elections are held the
printing is much more. But no one
can accuse us of this mercernary
motive for that kind of printing
goes to the political papers. The
more we study it the stronger be-
comes our belief that the present
law is right and that the biennial
should be defeated. The present
election system brings our state
elections at time when there are
no other questions to bother. If
things become mixed and bad at
the state house and the people de-
sire a change they have no other
questions but that involving the
state. Whereas, if it was changed
it would throw state and national
together and the national will de-
stroy the effect desired in the state.
True, other states have the biennial
but what state having it, compares
with the good government of Iowa!
1t simply throws politics into the
hands of the politicians and away
from the people. We believe it
should be defeated and the outlook
is that it will be.
