Des Moines, Aug. 27.-While the
next legislature will not see as great
a change in personnel as the Thirty
second saw over the Thirty-first, 1T is
already learned that a large number
Of changes are to be made, especially
/, in the house. Representative Berges j.
Bergeson, of Palo Alto county, who at
ltracted considerable attention in the
last campaign as the cowboy candidate
and made a good legislator by always
/ voting intelligently, has moved to Sioux
City and is thus out of his district.
4 Clifford B. Paul, of Jones county.
! who has been spending the year in Des
! Mones studying law. expects to return
again next year. He will spend all
/ the coming school year in law school
and will thus be too busy to set into
a campaign and since he will graduate
from the law next spring, expects 1t IS
said, to enter the practice of law and
! Will not, seek recollection.
Stanley Conn, of Butler, VIII not
seek re-election, having served two
terms which is the accustomed length
1 of time in his county. lie was CHAIR
man Of the insurance committee last
session which did SO much work.

ty, will be back next time and accord
ling to all indications stands a first rate
chance of being elected speaker. He was
one of the ablest of the legislators last
session. 1t is understood that Repre-.
sentative Teter of Marion county, who
| had hopes of being elected speaker next
time, is thinking seriously OF runnlngN
| for senator from the Marion Monroe
district. Senator Warren of that diss
ltrict is candidate for congress from
| the seventh and Speaker Kendall, une
| representative from Monroe, is "a can
didate for congress from the Sixth,
leaving the field wide open for Teter.
Inforn1at ton from Strawberry Point
lis that Senator Newberry has quite en-
tirely recovered from the rattlesnake
bite of some weeks ago. To some OF
his friends Senator Newberry has told
his experience with the snake. He says
the bite was about four inches above
the ankle on the outside of the left leg.
The first thing he did after being bit
| was to kill the rattlesnake. The next
thing he did was to get that part OF MS
leg where the snake had bit UP to MS
mouth and sucked for dear life" Sen
ator Newberry was very agile last SEES
sion in getting some good bills thru the
legislature but few suspected he was
as agile as that
