BRYAN TALKS To
WARD WORKERS
EXPLAINS PLAN OF DEMOCRATIC
CLUB IN EVERY PRE-
CINCT

Chicago, Sept. 9.-Twelve hundred
precinct committeeman, recently cleo
ted in the primaries, were addressed
by William J. Bryan last night The
meeting represented an innovation
in politics in Chicago, and was for the
purpose of putting into effect the call
Of the democratic national committee
for a campaign club in every voting
precinct in the United States.
Mr.. Bryan spoke of the primary sys-
TEN as having revoIutionized politics,
in that the voters now have authority,
instead of some central body. He
urged upon the committeeman the
Importance of their position and abso-
lutte necessity of thorough organiza-
ton.
1T will be your business" he said,
''to see, first. that every democratic
vote is registered; second, that every
democratic vote is cast; third that
every democratic vote is counted,
fourth, that false registration and re-
peating are prevented.
He also urged the necessity Of rails
ing money with which to conduct
the campaign, and declared that re
ports from various parts of the coun-
try are so encouraging that, by work
ing all together, victory will be as
sured.

NO IMPROVEMENTS
ON RAIL WAYS NOW.

San Francisco, Cal, Sept. 9.-In an
interview z. H Hartman, who is on
his way east from his summer home
in southern Oregon, said that there
would be no extensive improvement
work begun on any railway lines un.
der his control until the financial stu
alton had relaxed considerably. Mr..
Hartman commented upon what he
termed the apathy shown over the
presidential election and said, that
this state OF affairs might readily
prove dangerous, as conservative vot-
ers possibly would not have sufficient
interest to come to the polls.
Mr.. Hartman declared that he was
in favor Of tariff revision and that he
believed the tariff should have been
revised six or seven years ago, when
other financial changes were made.

CANADA'S FOREST FIRES.
Devastation by Its Timber Confiagra
tions Becoming Serious.

A strict fire watch, open breaks in
the timber, kept free to prevent fire
from spreading, care in regard to
waste and refuse, the enforcement, I'M
der penalty, of laws against careless
mes, all now in progress in our great
reservations, enable the federal for
estry bureau to diminish or prevent
! fire, as has been done in the state for
| est reservations of New York and
Pennsylvania. Canada, it was esti-
mated in 1899, had 100000 square
miles under timber, about five times
as large as our national reservations
and from three to four times rs large
as our total standing timber. Taking
the dominion as a whole, about 81
per cent. of its area is under timber.
In British Columbia, where these
fires are in progress, IS per cent. of
the area is forest, in Manitoba 40 per
cent and the Northwest Territory
80 per cent, timber disappearing in
the north.

subject of scandal. In 1890 Sir Rich

year has seen its exposure and every
few years it's fires. They swept over

BLOCK ELECTION
OF GOV. CUMM|NS
IOWA LEGISLATURE is DEAD,
LOCKED OVER SHORT TERM
PROPOSITION.
REPUBLICANS HOPELESSLY d.
VIDED AND DEMOCRATS
IN GLEE.

Des Moines, Ia, Sept. 9.-True to
the pledge to each other, ~ stand
pat republicans in the legislature yes
terday prevented the election of
/ Governor Cummins to the senate TO
fill out the unexpired term of the late
wv B. Allison. These standpatters
refused to cast their votes for Gov
ernor Cummins and, with the 45 dem
ocrats who voted for Porter, outnum-
/ bered the 65> republicans who voted
Tor Cummf1s.
Not only did these AZ prevent an
election yesterday, but they de-
clared that it is their intention to
keep Governor Cummins out of the
senate. Although prominent party
leaders came from all parts of the
state yesterday for the legislative
session, and also for the republican
judicial convention which meets to-
day, they failed to bring about an
adjustment of the differences. Both
sides say they will not yield.
There is a disposition among many
men of both factions to hurry up
the primary law legislation, for
which the extra session was con-
vened, and then adjourn.
A proposition to adjourn would win
all the standpat republican votes,
probably some democratic votes and
it is claimed some Of Governor Cum
Minis strength.
How the Vote Stood.
In the house the vote stood:
Governor Cummins A, CIaud r.
Porter (dem) 81, Funk 4, Perkins l,
Larrabee 1, and with standpat
strength of % votes cast for various
candidates including Walter /. Smith,
Nv. P. Hepburn, G. n. Haugon and A.
| f. Lawson of the Iowa delegation in
congress.
In the senate Governor Cummins
received q votes, Porter IA, while
the IA votes of standpatters were
scattered.
Want People to Decide.
The standpatters put their Oppo-
sition to Governor Cummins on the
ground that they do not believe in
proceeding with an election until
the people have a chance to express
preference in a primary election.
Governor Cummins, after the vote,
said he regretted that so many repub-
Iicans had found it necessary to bolt
the decision Of their party caucus.
Much bitterness is expressed among
the progressives and there is open
talk Of boiling the state and legisIa-
tive tickets at the polls if the stand
patters refuse to give the majority
recognition.
The standpatters believe the de
| feat of the governor this time effec-
lively DISCREPANCIES the progressive
forces and makes his success impOs-
IibIe There are those who think the
effect on the movement which he
has been leading will be very detri-
mental and that it will begin to disin-
Itegrate.
Democrats were jubilant and are
hopeful that the joint session will
disclose the fact that the standpat-
tiers have forced a deadlock. This
will hasten the enactment Of any
kind of a primary law in order to
compel adjournment as quickly as
possible.

Threatened to Kill Her
Got Another Assistant.

On Tuesday she went to Rustin's
office, she said, and it was then that
he told her he had found some one
else to kill him. While there Davis
came in and she was introduced to
him.
She told of seeing Rustin put the
other man on a Farnam street car to
go to some appointed place where
the doctor was to meet him and of
her parting with him for the last
time.
Mrs. Rice said she was 10 years
old, and was married two years ago
to Irving Rice, a private in the Unit
ed States army at Des Moines. Her
parents live in that city. She went
to Cuba with her husband, but re
turned last November to Des Moines,
because she said her husband had
abused her. In December she came
to Omaha. She was taken sick and
DR.. Rustin attended her, and since
then she saw him almost daily.
