fend his advocacy of the big family
In the race suicide debate that will take
place.
AT this convention it is proposed to
nominate a full state ticket on the
strict race suicide platform, contend
ing that the growth of population has
weakened the many in their strussla
against the trusts.
In his letter to the president, Mer-
rick says:
1--WE would be pleased TO have you
debate in favor of the question. Re
solved, that race suicide is caused by
too few births We bachelors and
maids will take the opposite side-viz:
That race suicide is caused by toe
many births and that degeneration is
caused thereby And we will allow the
affirmative o-thirds of the time.
g Dear Teddy our society analyses
THAT chapter of the Bible where ii
reads. Multiply and replenish the
EARTH to mean that we should care in
diligently for the human beings and
their offspring. So the question arises
How many children can the common
laborer afford to support on 81 day !?
which, believe. is about the average
wage for unskilled labor"

dent will attend, I'VE may be obliged

Not Likely That Governor Cum

in Naming Delegation
PRoeREssrvEs MAY CONFER
Governor cummins' Friends May Call
Meeting to Consider the General Sit
uation-RadcaI standpatters Are
Deliberately Planning to Force Bolt
in Convention.
Special to Times-Repul,lican.

Des Moines July IA conference
of the progressives of Polk county,
the men who were instrumental in
giving the big majority to the win
ners in the recent county primary,
will be held this evening In Des Moines.
when the list of republicans who will
represent Polk county republicans in
the state convention will be made UP.
1t is expected that Governor Cummins
will announce them tomorrow. He
will so announce them no matter what
any court or judge does under the spur
of Ed Hunter and his corps of law
yers
A good many think that there will be
no effort to enjoin the governor from
carrying out the will of the convention
by announcing the names of the dele
gates, because they realize that any
court SO foolish as to go into this game
seriously would be forever discredited
with all honest men; but others in
sist that the injunction will be asked
will be found who will serve the Hun
ter committee in this way, and that
the chief purpose Of the suit will be to
make the appearance of a fuss in
Polk county so as to afford excuse for
the state committee to shut the con-
venton doors on the seventy-tw dele
gates.
Thus far the progressives have not
deemed it necessary to hold any con-
ferences or to arrange any program
or to get together for self protection.
but if the policy of their opponents
remains unchanged they will get ready
to take such action as may be DEEM
ed necessary to see to it that the ma
jority rules in the state convention.
A conference will be held within q
week to consider the situation. Con-
ferences are being held in various
counties where the threats of "con-
test" are made. In Scott county the
delegation met last week and organic
ed with w. II. Wilson as chairman,
and a steering committee, consisting
of Mr.. Wilson, Joe Lane, Henry Theu-
men, George French and M. H.. Calder
wood, was named to do business. Sim
liar action will be taken in other coun-
ties which are threatened with trouble
from Hunters headquarters.
The conviction is becoming settled
among all conservative republicans
that the radicals are deliberately plan
ming to not have harmony. They re-
call what Ed Hunter said a short time
ago to the effect that what is wanted
is a program that will force A. b
Cummins out of the republican party.
Hunter and Blythe desire a split in
the convention, of course taking care
that it shall appear that the conven-
ton they plan to hold is regular and
the one held by the majority of the
convention can be branded as boiling
Unless there are developments with
in few days indicating that the rad
ical program is to be abandoned, it is
certain that the state convention will
mean a split convention and broken

A pretty little device of the wicked
which is attracting a good deal of at
tention in restaurants, cabarets. posa-
