TROUBLE FOR THE ELDERS.
Objections Made to Their Living in
Sioux Civ


Trouble is brewing for some of the
presiding elders of the Northwest Iowa
conference from present indications.
The laymen of at least two districts
have signified their intention of max
ing formal protest to Bishop Mcdowell
against presiding elders living with
out the bounds of their districts.
There are five presiding elders in the
conference and four of them live ut
Sioux City; Rev. Robert Smylie, who

Fort Dodge district; Rev. Hugh Hay,
of the Sheldon district, and Rev. w.

who has but recently moved here from
Algona.
The people of Algona and Fort Dodge
especially are much incensed that the
presiding elders do not make their
residence in these towns. The feel
that as the head Of the districts they
have a right to the prestige of having
the eldre's family with them. Many
of the preachers have a feeling that the
elders should live in their districts
also, but they are timid about ex-
pressing their opinion. What Bishop

Cochran, Who Will Stump District
For Wade, is an Interesting Phase

Special to Times-Republican.

\ Special TO IlmeS-RepuOllCdus
Iowa City, Sept. 29.-The coming
| week will open in the Second Iowa dis
trict the active campaign which has
been simmering now for some time
| The situation presented in the district
lis the most unique IN Iowa polltlcs
Hon. Martin j. Wade, the present IN
cumbent, and the nominee of the demo
cratic convention, for United States
representative, stands before the peo-
pie, not only as a representative OIL the
democratic party but as the represent
tative of large number of indepen-
dent republicans as we'll. Raised in a
school of politics which knows no enc
mics and makes many friends IN the
ranks of the opposition, renowned alike
as a genial companion and a bralny
man, will he be able to stand against
the slogan, "a vote for Dawson is a
vote for Roosevelt?
Judge Wade enters the campaign
even more popular than at the time OF
his first election. His is a clean rec
ord in congress, and his ability has
expanded with his opportunities, but
he has opposed to him man perhaps
no less brilliant than himself, Albert
F. Dawson. If Senator Allison's for
mer private secretary fails to carry the
district aaginst Wade, then is the dis
trict indeed lost, nor can Wade be
again called "the mistake of the re-
publican convention"
Hoffman, Wade's first antagonist, did
not have the sympathy of the party
that nominated him. That unfortunate
blunder split the Iowa delegation to the
national house. as it has made what are
now called the Wade republicans" On
neither occasion was the republican
vote for representative less than 49,
202. Wade was elected to the office he
now holds by only 1925 votes. Meth
er man is unknown in the district and
the fight should be close one. An
interesting phase of the campaign will
be the appearance of Burk Cochran,
stumping the district for his friend
Wade. The advent of the great New
York orator at Davenport toward the
latter part of the campaign should
draw the largest crowd to the river city
that ever gathered at political rally
in the district.
