He founded his most famous one, The
Liberator Building society" on the
ruins of the National Land and In

investors and then used their deposits
in floating new companies of every

His operations nearly always had
some religious trimmings" For in

moved into its new offices, a resolution
was adopted that ION the occasion of
taking possession this day of our new
premises, the directors desire to record
their sense of thankfulness for the
prosperity with which, as they believe
God has hitherto blessed their efforts

ATTENDANCE MAY BE LIMITED
Unless Convention is Postponed Until

Large Attendance from the Various
States - Governor Cummins Will
Consider the Matter Later.
Special to Times Republican.

Des Moines. May 1o.--Altho Gov
ernor Cummins has not yet taken VI
the matter of calling the convention
OF delegates from the various states OF
the union TO consider the problem OF
getting Il constitutional amendment to
provide for direct election of United
States senators, the matter is likely
to cause some little trouble in the Sc
lection of the date Before August /,
tho date of the state republican con-
ventlon, is II bad time because of tho
political campaign in this state. 1t
might seem that any date after the
state republican convention In Iowa
would be satisfactory, but the state
convention Is August ! and the month
OF August all over the United States
Is the vacation month and 1t might be
difficult to get u good attendance of
state delegates. With the first of
September there opens UP the fall cam
paigns In every congressional district
in United States and about half the
states have state campaigns. The cleo
lions Will be over with November 4
and congress opens the first Of Deem
Der. BY natural courses of reasoning
it Is to be supposed that either the
convention will be called for some
time during the month of November or
else during the present campaign In
Iowa. The month of November seems
the more natural selection. Coming
just before congress assemblies 1t may
have a wholesome effect on congress-
Furthermore IL 1t were the intention
to call the convention before August
the call would be issuing soon.
According to the terms of the reso
luton passed by the legislature, each
governor will name five delegates to the
convention. Since Senator Lewis Of
fered the resolution In the senate he
may be selected by Governor Cum
minis as chairman of the delegation
from this state The convention VIII
not likely be In session to exceed a
week and the intention Is that 1t shall
serve to agitate the question more
than anything else and thus secure
from seven additional states the pass
age OF resolution thru the legisla-
lures asking congress to submit the
matter to a constitutional convention
as 1t will then have to do Twenty
three states have now passed such
resolution and two-thirds of the states
of the union must pass 1t before con-
crossed is compelled to act.
