There is place for each kind Of a

ATTACK ON POPE
Semi official Article Claims French
Cabinet is Preparing to AssaiI vati-
can by Accusing II cf Engaging in
Conspiracy With Monarchists, to
Overthrow the Republic.

Rome, Oct. 16.-The Observatore
Romano today published a semi Off
cial article saying the French cabi
net is preparing to attack the vatican
at the reopening of the chambers, by
accusing it of engaging in conspir-
acy with monarchists to overthrow
the republic and giving; the following
statements as proof of its charges:
That the royalist press, which op-
posed the late Pope Leo XIII, approves
of Pope Plus x. That the royalist Lead
ers urge the pope to support the re-
ligious movement in France. That the
pope granted an interview to the roy
alist organ, Gaulois.
The Observatore Romano answers
these allegations by stating that Pope
Plus, like Pope Leo, loyalty accepts
the republic, as the former has re-
peatedly affirmed, confirming his state
ment in his recent encyclical on the
church and state separation law, and
challenged anybody to quote word
uttered by the pope or to .adduce a
fact showing the pontift as an enemy
of the republic. The proofs to be re-
ferred to by the French republic gov
ernment, the Observatore Romano
adds, are not serious. The royalists
support the pope either as a good
Catholic or for political aims.

OF the fact that the work has been

Des Moines, Oct 16.-Did the dem
ocratic candidate for governor vote
for Governor Cummins once or twice
and is he therefore one Of the large
army of so-called "Cummins demo-
Gratis" of Iowa?
The question is causing some worry
to some of the leaders in the anti
Cunlmins campaign.
And is it not true that the demo-
cratic candidate for governor intimat-
ed after the Des Moines convention,
and before the Waterloo convention,
that he was going to support the re-
publican candidate for governor?
Some persons say that this is true.
There is some foundation for it.
Down around Centervile it is COM
monty believed among the knowing
ones that Mr.. Porter was a supporter
of Governor Cummins in his previous
campaigns in Iowa. They do not say
that they know how he voted, for they
did not follow him into the voting
BOOTH but the impression prevails
that Porter was Cummins man. He
had been while in the legislature one
of the senators who admired the gov
ernor. Some persons say that Por-
ter has said he voted for Cummins.
Those who know are reluctant to talk.
but if a man could be convicted Of
political good sense on general reputa-
ton, Porter could be convicted.
Then it is also well known, espec-
tally down in the Eighth district, that
when Porter and his Eighth district
friends went to the Waterloo conven-
tion their program was for Porter to
Frun for congress, and then to gain the
friendship of the progressive repub-
lieans by passing the word around
quietly that Porter was himself a
strong friend of the governor. Por-
ter is accredited with having said, at
his home, a few days before the Wat
erloo convention, that he would be
pleased if Cummins should again be
elected governor. He will not deny it
now.
The situation in the democratic party
has got to that point where nobody
cares, unless 1t be few of the old
line democrats who believe that one
must always vote their ticket. no mat
ter what may be the consequences.
