Especial Washington letter.
TIME only word by which to ade-
quately describe the Republic
an political situation in Iowa
is "chaos." The only thing
elear about the state convention is that
Mr.. Secretary Shaw is no longer the
favorite son of Hawkeye Republicans
as a presidential candidate-that is, if
that convention fairly represents Re
publican sentiment in that state. Hon.
George d. Perkins, who was the lead
ing gubernatorial candidate, says that
it does not represent Iowa Republican
sentiment and that the Cumminsites
stole the convention. If that be true,
Secretary Shaw may yet loom large on
the presidential horizon. There is
much of soreness among the stand pat
ters, and many persons believe that
enough of them will bolt to elect the
Democratic ticket. Think of such SUI
pereminent stand patters as Colonel
William Peters Hepburn, Major John
f. Lacey and Robert G. Cousins run
ming for congress on tariff revision
platform and whooping it up for Cum
minis as Iowa'S favOrite son!

Why, bless my SOUL that last sentence

John Dalzell would give in his adhesion
to that proposition. Perhaps Uncle Joe
could be induced to subscribe to it.

clarified his brain. During the last
session of congress Democrats ham,

Even Massachusetts Republicans

was Brother Ellis then? Did he sign

WHO MAY JOIN THE GRANGE

State Master Fuller of New York In
terprets the Law.
One of the duties devolying upon the
master of a state grange is the inter-
probation of grange law, and one of the
most frequent questions referred to the
master is, ''Who are eligible to mem
bership in the grange" Hardly mail
comes to the masters desk, says
George A. Fuller, master of New York
state grange, which does not contain
one letter asking this question, and not
infrequentiy four or five in the same
mail The primary qualification for
membership in our Order is plainly set
forth in tie Overwhelmingly, that
the applicant must be engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits and that he must
have no occupation in conflict with our
purposes and that he or she has. reach
ed the age of fourteen years. The
grange is essentially a farmers organ
ization, and as such it should be made
up of farmers and their families. 1t
may be delightful to have our friends
who are not farmers with us on occa-
sion, but to take them into active mem
bership in the grange is clearly uncon-
stitutional and undesirable. Emergen-
cies are constantly arising in which the
interests Of farmers are not identical
with the interests of other classes and
industries, and under such circum-
stances it becomes an embarrassment
to have members of the Order who are
working and acting in opposition to the
interests of the majority. Let US keep
the grange a farmers organization for
farmers.

The Vice Presidency.

Nothing has occurred which so thor
oughly demonstrates the force of the
BRYAN movement and the abiding faith
which men have in both his nominal
ton and election as the statement of
Hon. Charles A. Towne that he will be
glad to accept vice presidential NOM
nation on a ticket with Bryan, but
would not accept it on ticket with
anybody else; Evidently TQwne con
siders Bryan's election among the GER
tainties. Mr.. Towne is himself man
of presidential stature, splendid
specimen of mental, moral and phys
ical manhood, in the very flower OF his
years, loved and trusted and admired
by all who know him. Handsome,
graceful and prepossessing, he would
be an ideal presiding officer for the
senate and would discharge the duties
of that high station with tact, dignity
and signal ability. He is student of
men and things, versed in the history
of his country, as well as in the sci
ence of politics. and is an orator OF
rare power. Bryan and Towne would
make the greatest oratorical team ever
nominated on one ticket for the two
highest offices within the gift OF the
American people. Nobody except some
malignant blatherskite ever said an
unkind word concerning Charles A.
Towne. He has the satisfaction OF
knowing that he enjoys the sincere
friendship of every human being &C.
quainted with him whose friendship
is worth the having.
He wears no mans and no party's
collar He was a Republican repre-
senting in congress an Overwhelmingly
Republican district, which included
the ambitious and growing city of Du-
luth, and was prime favorite in that
district when he left the Republican
party on a question of conscience. Ev-
erybody knew that he spoke the sober
truth when he said during the late ses-
sion of congress that he could have re-
manned in congress till the day of his
death as a Republican had he been
willing to swallow everything labeled
Republicanism, but when he knew
LIldt purity u D0 WTOI1S lie 1SIt II anu
cast his fortunes with the Democrats.
So he voluntarily went out of the
house. Subsequently he served in the
senate for about six weeks by appoint
ment from that great Democrat, Gov
ernor John Lind of Minnesota, as the
successor to Cushman X. Davis, the
brilliant Shakespearean scholar. After
his brief term in the senate Mr.. Towne
removed to New York city to practice
law, with no thought of re-entering
congress, but Tammany gladly gave
him a seat in the house, where he is
now serving with high distinction.
The American people would be honor
ing themselves by making Towne vice
president, which position he would
honor as highly as any man that ever
occupied it. "Mr. Vice President
Towne" would sound well

Seeing a New LIGHT.

1t is with great pleasure that I an
nounce the sudden conversion of
United States Senator William Warner
of Missouri and Congressman Ellis of
the Kansas City (Mo) district to
the doctrine of tariff revision Change
of scene from the banks of the Potomac
to the banks of the raging Kaw seems
to have done those statesmen a world
of good. Perhaps they have had their
ears to the ground and have heard the
voice of the people. Now, the question
is, "Will they preach tariff revision
when they get back to Washington for
the short session." / limit it to the
short session for the good and sufficient
reason that some reliable Democrat
will sit in the seat now occupied by
Brother Ellis in the Sixtieth congress.
His opinion after March 4, 1907, will
not be of much Importance whether on
the tariff or another subject. The Re
publicans can revise the tariff during
the coming short session If they will.
and it is probably the only chance they
will have in a decade to do so. Will Mr..
Ellis help? Judging by his conduct in the
statehood matter, he will not, for in
that case Mr.. Speaker Cannon's word
was law with him, and Uncle Joe has
evoluted into an intense stand patter.
So it may be set down once for all
that during the brief remnant of his
brief congressional career Mr. Ellis,
while tariff revisionist in Kansas City,
will be stand patter in Washington un-
less Speaker Cannon changes his mind.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

The representatives of the Democra-
tic party of Hawaii, in convention as
sembled, do hereby reaf1irm their at
legiance to the National Democratic
organization and the principles to
which the Democratic party has ad-
hered from it's formation, and particu-
larly do we declare our allegiance to
the intelligent and statesmanlike appli-
cation of those principles in modern
times in dealing with trusts, combines
and other manifold evils resulting from
the rapid encroachments of organized
capital upon the rights, freedom of
action and safeguards of the individual.
We congratulate President yRoose-
welt for rising above his party and the
leaders Of his party in applying to the
public service and to corporations and
trusts the checks and regulations de-
manded by the Democratic party since
1896, then publicly denounced and now
secretly opposed by the leaders of the
Republican party, but still more do we
congratulate ourselves upon the far
reaching faith and steadfast courage
of William j. Bryan, the recognized
leader of the Democratic party who,
through good and i'll repute, in spite
of repeated defeats that seemed over
whelming and conclusive, in the face
of countless personal and political at
tacks, and deluged with derision in the
open paved the way for far reach
ing reforms of inestimable value to his
fellow citizens and posterity, and in
this connection we express our high ap-
proval of the patriotic record made by
Democrats in both houses Of Congress
in upholding the hands of President
Roosevelt without their help, defeat
awaited him at the hands of a Repub-
lican Congress upon matters vital to
the public welfare.

Republican party in this Territory,
whereby large areas of land and
valuable water rights are still being

STEAMER To
START FROM
AZORES
BOARD OF IMMIGRATION is NOTI-
A VESSEL.

The Board of immigration has re-
ceived definite advlces regarding the
chartering of a steamship by Collector
Stackable in the Azores, as reported in
The Star sometime ago, and the de-
parture of the vessel for Hawaii. The
vessel in question is the S. S. Suveric,
and she has been engaged by Stackable
to leave the Azores about October Is.
The cable received from Stackable
says; IS. s. Suveric chartered. Octo-
Der 1915 loading" This is taken by
r. d. Tenney of the Board to mean
that the vessel has been chartered
long as possible that he may come
to be in the Azores on October 10 and
to spend the following five days loading
immigrants.
The Suveric Is a new steamship of
1920 tons register and owned by An
drew Weir & Company of Glasgow.
From her description it is anticipated
that she will bring from 1000 to 1,2OO
immigrants.
For sometime after he arrived stack
able's mission looked like failure.
Then he was successful i'm getting i'm
migrants and cabled an offer here Of a
charter of a London steamer, Before
an answer reached him the steamer had
been chartered by other parties, Sub
sequently he secured a charter of the
Suveric, which is now expected to leave
the Azores about October 10

ENTOMOLOGIST CRAW CABLED TO

SUPPLY, .s.p.

There is a shortage of carbon bi-sul-

that the extensive fumigation of Jap
anese rice recently, has exhausted the
stock on hand. In fact there is prac-
tically none of the stuff on hand among
the I5cal drug stores He cabled to
San Francisco last week for a rush or
der of the drug so that the fumigation
can be kept up.
1t is expected that considerable rice
will be landed here from the S. S. Mon

most certain to require fumAgation
efforts are now being made to secure
the drugs necessary to do this work.

The band money has been expended
on the roads of the county.
Supervisor Moore stated that the
agreement that Cohen had with the
county was to the effect that the band
was to be brought back about the first
of October
1t is the opinion of many that Joe
Cohen is just beginning to realize on
the venture as it is getting cooler in
the east and the crowds will go to the
theater at this time of the year. So
Joe wishes to keep the band east as
long as possible that he may come
out even on the deal.
A special meeting of the supervisors
may be called but it is not thought that
the matter will come up until the
Thursday night session.

The band wants to come home and
Joe won't let them. At least that is
what is gathered from the cablegram

of the Board of Supervisors. The boys
are in Omaha and this morning the fol-
lowing was received by Chairman G.
