or Characterization Will Be Pro-
vided For-Joint Committee Unani-
nous on Provisions.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Feb. 6.-The joint sub
committee engaged in preparing the
primary bill is holding sessions daily
and will continue In session every day
until the bill is perfected. The COM
mittee has been found to be unanimous
on every important point discussed. L.
was decided the date for the primary
will be in June that a plurality shall
nominate and that the law will not APP
ply to municipal elections except in
large cities. Conventions will be pro-
vided for
The house and senate today
passed a number of minor bills. In
the house White introduced recipro
cal demurrage bill providing railroads
shall pay 81 u day for overtime in
failing to deliver cars or to transport
them at rate OF eighty miles a day.
Clarke introduced bill to compel the
Iowa railroad commission to make a
rate as low In Iowa as In any adjoining
state.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Feb. Git is learned
that good deal of quiet work is being
done here by persons who appear to
Ia of vxy{fh Ia oo
political forces elsewhere, in the prep
aration of a bill which would have i'm
portant political consequences affecting
the congressional delegation. The bill
proposes a redistricting Of the state
as to congressman. Here are the
changes that will be made:
First District-Add Davis county.
Second District-Add Cedar county.
Third District-Add Grundy county
Fifth District-Add Jackson county.
Sixth District-Add Appanoose and
Marion counties.
Eighth District-Add Mills and
Montgomery counties.
Ninth District-Add Monona and
Crawford counties.
Tenth District-Add Wright county,
The effect Of this changing could
easily be figured out. 1t would give
the democrats a stronger hold on the
First district, and 1t would certainly
strengthen Colonel Hepburn in his dis
trict 1t would have little or no effect
in the Seventh but would in the Sixth
and other districts. 1t would bring
Judge Conner into the district with
Judge Smith, would compel Dawson
and Cousins to change districts, and
would get Birdsall over into a district
away from Dubuque and Waterloo.
1t is not clear where this bill comes
from, but it is intimated it comes from
the southern part of the state, where
there is, among some politicians at
least, some little resentment lingering
over what happened last summer at the
time of the state convention.
1t is also suggested that the bill is
being prepared for the purpose of caus-
ing some fastening Of the federal pie
caucus at Washington, as those who
are back of it desire early action.

saloons on account of their treatment
and the citizens of Brownsville wanted
white soldiers who would spend
money"
