Special to Times-Republican.

Des Moines, Jan. 5.-The tubercu-
losis hospital at Iowa City is com
pleted and ready for occupancy, hut
for the setting Of generator and
engine the contract for which was let
to the Westinghouse company. Their
failure has. caused the delay. This is
expected, however, not to continue
long. AS soon as the institution is
completed it is expected that there
will be patients ready to go into it.
The winter time is considered the very
best time for the outdoor treatment of
tuberculosis and for that reason the
board of control is making every eff
fort to get the institution ready.
State Architect Liebbe today began
the work OF preparing the plans for
the new girls cottage for the indus
trial school at Mitchellville This new
cottage will not be started till spring.
The building is to be on the cottage
plan and considerable improvemen mt
over the buildings now at the insti-
tuition and used for cottages since they
are much on the box shape order.
1t is expected that this week the
water for the new we'll at Glenwoed
will be made available for the water
supply there and the institution will
then have for the first time In its ris-
tory an inexhaustible supply of pure
water. It was heralded once before
that the water was to be turned on out
this plan was interfered with and the
mains have only now been completed.
A reservoir costing many thousands OF
dollars completed just before the board
of control took charge has been found
to be absolutely useless and the dig
artesian we'll sunk at great expense
cannot be used because it does not
furnish sufficient supply of water. A
number of new buildings are to be
erected at the Glenwood institution
next year.
Judge Fee, of Appanoose county,,
and ex-senator Harsh. are being talk
ed of in the Eighth district for dele
gates from that district. 1t Is UNDER
stood that Senator Joe Allen. OF Po-
cahontas county, will be one OF the
candidates in the Tenth. Editor viii
Payne. Of Nevada. wishes to be one
of the delegates from the Seventh.
1t is recognized here that the cantii-
dacy OF Carl Kuehnle for governor is
for the purpose of embarrassing Garst.,
Both come from the same congress
ional district and from the same part
Of the district. Kuehnle would attrsct
a considerable number of standpat vot-
ers but it is not considered by the
friends of Garst that he would in any
way weaken Garsts candidacy 1t is
recognized that it is the hope of the
standpatters to get as many candidates
in the field as possible and everyone
is being encouraged to that end. 1t
can be said definitely that Haugen will
not be a candidate for governor.
Friends of Col D. H. Palmer say he,
will not be candidate.
The suggestion from standpat
sources that there will be a comproln-
Use between Garst and Bernard Muir
ply has, not yet met with confirma-
ition on the part Of the progressives. 1t
is known that there was started few
days ago in this city a movement in
that direction. BY those who believe
in political trades and deals rather
than in letting the people make the Sc
lections the matter progressed by easy
stages till it reached Garst. Mr.. Garst
let it be known that he would go into
no combine. That he would look after
his own candidacy and allow other
people to look after theirs. 1t Is un-
derstood that James Wilson, trustee, OF
the state agricultural college at Ames.
does not take kindly to the suggestion
that the entire, standpat Strength is go
ing to Murphy. Mr.. Wilson is in every
sense a candidate for the position OF
lieutenant governor. He has served on
the agricultural college board for
years, was Herriott's private secretary
while he was lieutenant governor and
has for years been recognized politi-
cal, factor in Iowa. He. proposes to
make vigorous campaign for the po-
sition of lieutenant governor. OF
course the friends Of Senator Hopkins
who Is a candidate for state auditor
and who resides in an adjoining coun-
ty to Mr.. Wilson call attention to the
fact that Mr.. Wilson's announcement
was made just after chat of Mr.. Hop
lSins and they intimate that they think
Mr.. Wilson'S candidacy is announced
for the purpose of embarrassing Sem
ator Hopkins.
