sAMMIs FOR STATE SENATOR.
Well Known Plymouth County Man
Announces His Candidacy.


LeMars, April 13.-J. U. Sammis, of
this place, yesterday announced his
candidacy for the republican nomina-
ton for state senator from the Firty-
sixth senatorial district comprising
plymouth. Cherokee and Ida counties.
His candidacy is based upon the belief
that plymouth county is entitled to the
senatorship this year, it having been
thirteen years since a man from this
county represented the district in the
senate. Mr.. Sammis is an attorney
widely known in northwestern Iowa
and the state at large. His candi-
dacy will inaugurate a lively contest
for the nomination, as G. f. Coburn,
of Cherokee county, had already an
nounced his candidacy for this NOM
ination some weeks ago. The district
was represented in the last general
assembly by John L. Bleakly, of Ida
county.

to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, April Ex-senator ALI
son will probably not come to Iowa at
any time during the campaign. This
information is secured from A. U.
Quint of this city who is in charge of
the Allison headquarters here. Mr..
Quint says that it is possible that Sen
ator Allison may come to the state to
meet some Of his friends, but that he
will not make any speeches.
Incidentally it is learned that there
are demands from over the state by the
Allison following for speakers but the
bureau at Dubuque which handles all
those matters is unable to supply the
men. Every effort has been made to
get Dolliver to come and speak but
without success. Standpat newspa-
pers are complaining OF the situation.
The Davenport Times has suggested
editorially that Allison himself should
come to the state and make some adj
dresses. The Des Moines Daily Capital
has complained.
It is understood here that the Alli-
son people propose to make a still
hunt" campaign and they believe that
this sort of a campaign will be much
more effective than any other kind. To
this end they have opened up head
quarters in some of the county seats
and are mailing out letters. At these
headquarters which it is proposed to
open up in practically every county in
the state a corps of typewriters and
stenographers are installed and the
voters are beseiged with letters urg-
ing them to vote for Allison.
The "still hunt" plan has its advan-
tages because the opposition does not
know what claims are being made and
thus cannot meet them with open ar
gument. 1t is understood, however,
that one Of the chief claims in the "still
hunt" campaign is to be that Governor
Cummins has drained the state treas
ury, threadbare fabrication out of
whole cloth which Treasurer Morrow
standpatter~has denied and which the
standpat managers of Allison's cam
paign know to be fabrication. Two
years ago when the same story was be-
Ing circulated State Auditor B. f. Car
roll. now candidate for governor, de-
MED the story and produced figures to
disprove 1t.
Considerable interest has been
aroused in political circles by the pub
lication in the Bloomfield Democrat
published in Auditor Carrots home
city that it is known there that Audi
tor Carroll is pledged to appoint John
f. Lacey as United States senator in
case Carroll is elected governor and
vacancy should occur during his term
Of office. Recently it was published
in the Des Moines Daily Capital in an
editorial that Carroll would not in any
event appoint Cummins. The Capital
made strong point of the statement
that regardless of what the wishes of
the people might be in no event would
Cummins be appointed.

Duma Credential Committee Cut Out

St. Petersburg, Nov. 25.-The Gre
Dental committee of the council Of
the empire has recommended the ex-
clusion from the duma of M. Marin,
constitutional Democratic representa-
tive of the Zemstvo of Kostroma. This
action was taken because the local
authorities of Kostroma have begun
proceedings against NJ. Marin on ac-
count Of speech delivered by him
there. The possibility of similar ex-
clusion hangs over M. Shingareff, one
of the most prominent constitional
Democrats in the lower house, who
has been indicted in Kostroma prov.
ince on the ground of being a mem-
ber of the constitutional Democratic
party, which has been declared illegal.
A majority of the members Of the
duma are unwilling to create q pre-
cedent by surrendering NJ. Shingareff
to trial, but the judicial authorities
may succeed in finding way around
the difficulty as was Gone in the case

Nearly two hundred persons, passen-
gers and crew of the Ellerman line

perished today when the steamer was
destroyed by fire. just after she had
sailed for Alexandria, Egypt. The
Sardinia was scarcely mile off Grand
Harbor when the first sign of fire ap-
peared. but with strong wind to fan
the flames, the whole ship was soon
ablaze AMI the passengers and crew
had scarcely chance for their lives.
There was a wild scene of panic on
board IS the rapidly spreading flames
drove the passengers to the rails and
many Of the excited ones, not even
waiting fol the boats to be lowered.
plunged into the sea.
Scores are believed to have been
drowned. Others, trapped by the fire,
were literally roasted to death or
smothered without chance for life.
There were many crafts in the har-
Dor at the time of the disaster and
several tugs and other swift small
vessels rushed to the assistance of
the imperiled liner. A high sea and
a half gale which prevailed at the
time. however, maze it impossible for
them even to approach the Sardinia
and they could do little in the way of
aid. Up to 3 o'clock this afternoon
fifty bodies had been brought ashore.
