There were between sixty and sew

Special to fines Republican.

| Special to Times-Repubiican.
Des Moines, Oct. 15.-The friends of
| Governor Cummins have taken the
initiative in a state wide movement to
how to vote at the senatorial primary
and tina all who are entitled to 50
vote secure ballots and get into the
game. An effort will be made to get
before all republicans their right and
duty to make them familiar with the
law. The exact wording of the law in
the matter of the request for the bal
lot is 20 be made use OF and attention
called to the fact that it is the right
and duty of every republican to vote
at the primary.
1t is stated that the Lacey commit
tee is preparing to have printed a large
number of the requests or blanks and
to have them in the hands of voters
signed when they appear before the
judges, hoping in this way to secure a
larger vote for their candidate for NOM
nation. In order to offset this the OPP
ponents of the factional program Will
in many counties also provide blank
requests.
The secretary Of state will in a few
days certify out to the county officials
the senatorial nominations and 1t is
probable he will request the counties
to have announcement printed in the
papers as in the June primary. tho the
law Is not entirely clear on he point.
AT any rate the request will be made
that every republican paper in the
state explain carefully the primary
law and give the senatorial nomina-
lions so hi there shall be no misun-
Outstanding of the same.
The papers of both Cummins and
Lacey have been filed. There was a ru-
NOR atioat that efforts were being
quietly made to add to the number OF
candidates, but this proves to have
peer without foundation. 1t is now re-
garded as certain the matter will not
be further complicated.
1t is learned that a special effort is
being made to force the labor vote,
and especially that of the coal miners,
away from Governor Cuminins, VINO
has long had the laboring men SOL
idly back of him, by circulation OF
stories that the governor has not been
kind to the interests of the
men in what he has done.

Special to Times Republican.


Davenport. Oct. 15.-An early morn
ing fire in the elevator and lumber dis
trict of the city caused q loss of $175,-
600. The fire destroyed the ID. Roth
schild Grain company's elevator 3D."
known formerly as the George A.
Seaverns elevator. situated south of
the Milwaukee tracks and west of the
old Tri-City Packing plant in west
Davenport, consumed warehouses In
which were stored 1920 barrels of
syrup belonging to the Corn Products
Refining company, and burned 300. 900
feet Of lumber piled near the elevator
in the yards of the Mueller Lumber
company, causing a loss which ap-
by insurance. The origin of the fire
is d mystery.
The ID. Rothschild Grain company's
loss Is estimated al about SIS. 900 on
elevator and warehouses. The Corn
Products Refining company's loss on
syrup is estimated by that company at
$4,000, and the Mueller Lumber
company's loss Is placed by a member
Of the firm at between $4,000 and
$4,000. There ma be a little salvage.
out early indications were that the
loss was practically total.
Cars of Grain Burn.
Several cars of grain. which were
cto ,1tnu an tIn o;Intrnnly u,ora ole,
destroyed by the flames. 1t is not
known how the blaze originated, and
conflicting stories are given by those
in the building at the time as to what
part of the structure the blaze orig
mated in. 1t seems most probable.
however, that the fire first gained
Roadway in the main elevator. which
was located centrally among the
grain sheds. This building was about
10 feet in height and the heat
created a draft thru the shaft which
famed the flames into fury. In a
moment the entire structure vas en-
veloped in a blaze. and a light south
west wind threw sparks on the adj
joining buildings, which were soon
ablaze.
Lumber Piles Destroyed.
The lumber piles of the Mueller
Lumber company. which were north
of the elevator on the property be-
longing to the grain company, We're
ablaze in a few minutes, and it re-
quired some desperate work on the
part of the fire department to saw
some of the adjoining lumber piles or
the west. and fortunately the direction
of the wind aided in this work.
Thousands of people, mainly resi-
dent of the western portion of the
city, were on the scsene to witness the
flames, which burned %furiously and
Illuminated the sky in red colors. The
fury of the flames can be imagined
when it is stated that in spite of the
fact Thai the main elevator building
was over 100 feet in height, after the
flames had died down, it was leveled
almost completely, and the highest
portion of the ruins which remained
at any portion Of the building did not
exceed 10 or Is feet in height.

What might have proven a very dis
astrous fire, was narrowly averted last
evening. In some unknown manner a
gasoline lamp in Miss Young's millin-
cry store set fire to some nearby drap-
cries. and only the quick action of nu-
merous b~ystanders saved the fire from
spreading. The store Is a frame build

Roadway at all. the buildings All
would have been doomed. as the Wind
was blowing quite a gale from the

gone to Nebraska for a few days stay.

chased in Grundy county.

last fall. as an experiment, from which
he got forty-one bushels per acre, by

in this vicinity to try raising winter
wheat, and the same has proven a very
gratifying and somewhat surprising
experiment. Mr.. Kober will put in q

The raising of timber as a cultivated
crop is surely a new proposition n
Tama county. For the last few years.
John Ames, living north Of town, has
been experimenting with this PROPOSE
ton. Last year he purchased a port
able saw mill, not only saving his w
timber. but also saving timber for
other nearby farmers. and he claims
it is a good investment and hat
there is money in lumber raising. One
of the chief advantages In raising lum-
Der, claimed by Mr.. Ames. is that the
trees planted for lumber will nearly all
thrive on low ground, so that the creek
bottoms and sloughs could be utilized
for growing them, and thus save the
higher ground for agricultural pur-
poses. This being the case a great dee
of the land turnout the state which is
at present bringing in little or no rev.
enue. could be utilized in raising lum-
Der to good advantage.

reasons for this change Of sentiment.
Your correspondent voted the straight

But 1t is as true in regard to the

the working man, knowing this TO be

should be without representation on

hardly think that there has been an
effort made to keep workingmen off
the ticket, but am very positive that
there has certainly been none to get
him on Men who must depend for a

are not usually able to make a long
