BLYTHE WIN IOWA FIGHT
Withdrawal Of Funk Leaves Him I'm.
opposed for Delegate at Large.

DES MONIES, Iowa, March o.
Former Senator A. B. Funk of Spirit
Lake, who was Endorsed by Governor
Cummins as a candidate for delegate
at large to the republican national
convention, has issued a letter an
nouncing his withdrawal. He says he
entered the race before it was known
that Senator Doliiver. who comes
from the same section OF the state
would be the unanimous choice of re-
publicans.
The withdrawal of Funk means the
selection of Joseph w. Blythe as a
delegate without opposition. Senator
Funk encourages harmony and says
his withdrawal is in the interest of the
ratification of Iowa's 1903 republican
pla torn. He says he may enter
the eleventh district congressional
race.

WHY WRIGHT LEFT HOME
Port Townsend Man Seen In Van
couver With Murray and Mack.

PORT TOWNSEND, March %
With the passing of the days and the
failure of Harry A. Wright to return
home, general credence is given to the
belief that he deliberately deserted his
family here.
According to the story, as first told,
Miss Cecil Lichtman, of New York,
was the woman whom Wright attempt
ed to marry in Seattle. She was a
member of the chorus with Murray &
Mack's burlesque show, and it is
known positively that Wright was in
Vancouver a fortnight ago when the
company was there, and all the time his
relatives here believed him in Seattle
on business.
To we'll known citizen here who
met Wright in Vancouver and inquired
his business, he said that he had had
some troubles at home and had turned
his business over to his wife and left"
This is the last that has been heard
of the man and there is a growing be-
lief that he has left here for good. His
actions are inexplicable to his many
friends, for his domestic life was al
his business was prosperous

FAMOUS BLOODHOUND CASE
New Trial Granted by the Supreme
Court of Iowa.

DES MONIES, iowa, March o.
The supreme court in an opinion by
Judge Weaver today granted a new
trial in the famous bloodhound case
in which Harry McClurg claimed dam
ages from Mayor Brenton and Chief of
Police Bracket in the sum of $4,000.
The case was tried by Judge McHen-
ry and the court directed verdict for
the mayor and chief.
The supreme court holds that the
case should have gone to the jury.
The opinion of Judge Weaver says
a man has a right to the undisturbed
possession of his home, also that the
work of blCCdhOunds in tracking a
man to his home is not presumptive of
guilt.
In the summer of 1902 Des Moines

Smoot Investigation Will Reach Every

SALT LAKE CITY, March 22.-The
tip from Washington that a sub-com-
mittee of the senate would be sent
to Salt Lake City to take testimony
in the Smoot case and that every
bishop, stake president and seventy"
i'll Utah would be summoned to ap-
pear, has panic stricken some Of the

ken plural wives and who are charged
with having performed polygamous
marriage ceremonies since the mani

them are the officials Of the stake at

Monday, March 6, at which time some

When Andrew Jensen, keeper of
the secret records Of the Mormon

for the names of all the stake presi-

the purpose of calling these men be-

FORMALLY ANNOUNCED HIS
CANDIDACY FOR CONGRESS
AT SPOKANE YESTERDAY.
Favors State Railway Commission and
Revision Of Interstate Com.
merce Laws.

w. n. Ludden, VINO is at preSen
register Of the United State land of.
flee at Spokane, has announced hi.
candidacy for congress subject to the
action of the republican state conven.
ton. In making the announcement
Ludden outlined the platform or
which he intends to make his fight as
follows:
Just freight rates for Spokane anG
all communities in a similar situation
as we'll as for the whole state OF
Washington"
Il am in favor" stated Mr.. Ludden
of a state railway commission, and
believe that such a commission should
be empowered by law to regulate the
freights and fares of all transconti-
mental companies operated In this
state or through this state.
While this may bring some relief
TO localities in this state, it Will not
reach the vital question of interstate
transportation rates. Consequently |
so much further upon this question
than the establishment Of the state
railway commission.
THE United States supreme court,
in the case of the Interstate commerce
commission vs.. the Louisville & Nash
Vile Railroad company ct al, decided
May Is, 1903, that under the provisions
of the interstate commerce law the
railroads above mentioned were en-
titled TO make less charges for a long
haul, under certain circumstances,
than for a short haul.
Il am. therefore, in favor of amend
ments of and to tie Interstate COM
merce law so as to insure relief from
unjust and exorbitant freight rates,
and the establishment and continuance
of lower and relative freight rates to
Spokane. | do not believe that the
rates here should be SO high as to pro-
duce more than a fair proportion of
the profits of the railway companies,
or that the charges to this point should
make up the losses, if any. occasioned
by shipments to other points farther
west than Spokane, whether such loss
is by reason of competition or other
wise.
Il believe the interstate commerce
should have more extend
ed powers, and l am in favor of
the interstate commerce
commission law so that the commits
sion will have more extended powers.
There is still another question that
comes under the head of transporta-
ton rates that l believe can be regu
lated by the congress Of the United
States. That is that laws should be
passed to SO regulate the commerce of
this country with the orient that the
great state of Washington will be
with the orient that it is naturally en-
titled to, and l believe that the trans
portation charges should be so regu-
lated that the flour and products of
the east when shipped to the orient

ONLY ONE CONVENTION
King County Republicans to Meet on
May 8.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 22.-King
county republicans will hold one coun-
ty convention for all purposes and
that convention will be held on May
3. Caucuses will be held April 25 and
primaries April %. The one conven-
ton program was adopted by the
committee Saturday afternoon after
bitter partisan contest in the course
of which S. H. Piles, candidate for the
United States senate, Erastus Brain
erd, editor of the Post -Intelligencer
and a number of other candidates and
prominent republicans had appeared
before the committee to protest
against the program in the most en-
phatic terms, both Piles and Brainerd
declaring that the one convention pro-
gram originated with persons outside
Of King county and not having the
interests of the county at heart.
State Senator j. J. Smith, in whose
interest the convention program was
framed up some three weeks ago. APP
peared before the committee to urge
that il be carried through. The full
vote of the committee was to be taken
on the convention controversy, but
when seven names had been called and
Six Of
ton, a motion to make the vote unan-
lmous was put and prevailed.
Fixed by Stevenson.
The one convention program was
planned by George Stevenson and his
toWorkers in what is kindly referred
to as the "Tacoma Influences" os-
tensibly in interests of Senator
Smiths candidacy for governor. 1t
has been openly opposed by Piles and
his supporters from the beginning.
but the Smith workers secured the
written pledges of IA of the IS men,
bers Of the committee and delivered
them as pledged despite all pro-
tests.
Local Mcbride leaders are jubi-
liant over the result, declaring that it
will compel Piles to take a positive
attitude of either approval or opposi-
ton with reference to Smiths candi-
dacy. Either development they de-
clare, will strengthen the chances Of
carrying the county for Mcbride. If it
is combination Piles would be bad
ly handicapped with Smith, and if on
position Piles only salvation would
be working arrangement with Nc
Bride for this county.

Dry in Arizona.

This is the dry est season that Arizona has ever known and it will mean the loss of thousands if not millions of dollars to the territory. It is especially hard on the sheep men. The sheep have come through in remarka- bly good condition, but that will not keep the lambs alive. Many sheep raisers are killing the lambs as, if this is not done, it will mean the death of both lambs and ewes.
 The profits of the sheep busi- ness will be completely annulled. But of course the sheep man has to look for this sort of thing once in a while. If 1t didn't happen this way they would get to be millionaires too rapidly. You know that the profits on sheep in what is considered a good year are 65 per cent That is, the lambs increase the value of the flock b5 per cent each year, and the wool will pay all expenses with usually a considerable mar gin.
