Democratic State Convention.

Democratic State Convention.
The Democrat State Conven-
ton of Iowa held at Des Moines
Wednesday, instructed for w.
r. Hearst, for President by a
vote of Sis for to 81 against,
and adopted the unite lule by
about the same vote.
The delegates at large are as
follows:
j. M. Pearson, Rock Rapids.
M. o. Carr, Manchester.
Gen. j. 3. Weaver, Colfay.
S. B. Wordsworth, G. Bluffs.
District Delegates.
The 9th Congressional Dist,
selected the following delegates
and alternates::
E. j. Sidey, Adair County.
Harry Hoffman, Guthrie Co.
0. P. Wickham, Council Bluffs
Ed. H. Barrett, Harrison Co.
The 9th Dist. delegates are
Hearst men, while the alternats
are understood to be anti-Hearst
men, but as the alternates have
no vote in the convention only
on the absence of the delegates,
Something not likely to hap
pen,) of cource they are mot in
| it,"
This strong Hearst feeling in
Iowa may not be satisfactory
to all the voters in the party,
yet the action was so decisive
as to leave no doubt of the fact
that Hearst is the choice of a
large majority of the democra-
cy of Iowa for the Presidency.
The action of the convention
settles the question, so far as
Iowa is concerned, and the only
question is: Will enough of the
of the other State follow suit to
insure the nomination of w. r..
Hearst? That's The question.
Have you seen those new
girdle belts at the Leader? The
very latest thing in belts.

does not say who is the possess

wondering where these twins
belong, as no mention has been
made of them in the Times
heretofore Wonder if they
are at Harrison Meech's, or
perchance at H. w. Clover's
place. At any rate, the matter
is being specialized on and it is
somebody's duty to look into
this and find out who are the
proud parents of these twins.
Could not be at Mr.. Clover's or
he would be passing the cigars
among his friends.

CERTAIN RESULTS
Many a Portland Citizen Knows
 How Sure They Are

Nothing uncertain about the work of Doan's Kidney Pills. There is plenty of positive proof of this in the testi- mony. Such evidence should convince the mos, skeptioal doubter. Read the following statement:
 D.. CofTey, whose place of residence is at 4SS East Thirteenth street, Port land, Oregoc, says: "I have been a great sufferer from carbuncles or tumors for years. Every once in a while they appeared, not only one at a time, but broke out in different places, mostly on my arms or about my neck. Three wears ago l suffered from num- Der of them, which broke out almost at tbe same time. l was treated by a physician and he stated that l would never get entirely rid of them unless ] had them lanced and the core taken out, He operated on them and | was not bothered with any more until last fall, when one made it's appearance. l came to the conclusion that my blood was out of order, and that the kidneys were not performing their functions right, and got a box of DOan'S Kidney Pills, taking them as directed, and they did all that was claimed for them. On previous occasions when one appeared it was followed by others, but DOan's Kidney Pills checked them. About two weeks ago one broke out on my arm and I again resOrted to DOan's Kidney Pills. and they prevented others from appearing. l can cheerfully recom- mend DOan's Kidney Pills, for l also know others who have used them with very satisfactory results"
