BAD FIRE THREATENED.

For a time last night it looked as
though the lower part of the city
was to be damaged by serious fire.
The little house on Spruce street
between Colorado and Ute avenues,
occupied by an old man named Hen
ry Webber, caught fire from some
unknown cause, and, although the
department made quick run. the
contents of the house, embracing
nearly all of the old man's earthly
possessions, were destroyed.
Two streams of water we're soon
playing on the house and 1t was
saved from complete destruction.
Many other and better houses are
standing near and that these did not
catch fire is due solely to the quick
and effective work of the department.
The high wind caused the depart
ment to work under great disad-
vantage.

EASIER TERMS FOR HOMESTEAD PROOFS
The Land Office Will Permit Entry
men to Receive Credit for Pay
mcnts Made Upon Rejected
CommutatiOn Proofs.

A dispatch today from Washing
ton states that under the terms OF
a new circular of the general land
office. approved under the date of
April 80, 1908, Commissioner Fred
Dennet of that Office is preparing in
structions under which, in cases
where Communication proof upon
homestead entries has been rejected
and the certificate and receipt issued
thereon cancelled, leaving the origi-
nal entry intact, subject to future
compliance with law and submission
of new proof, the entryman on MAX
ing new commutation proof, will be
permitted to receive credit for the
payment of purchase money made
when his original certificate was is
sued.
Under the former practice he was
required to make a new payment
when submitting the new proof and
obtain the return of the money orig
inally paid by application for repay
ment, which process necessarily in
volved delay and in many cases
forced homestead entrymen to bor-
row money with which to make pay
ment upon the new proof.
The practice inaugurated by the
new circular will not only relieve
homestead entrymen from annoyance
and expense, but will materially les
sen the work of the land department
in this class of cases.

THE FASHION
The SOCIALISTS WANT ~
m HAYWOOD FOR PRESIDENT
National Convention Opens Tomorrow
In Chicago-Even Eugene v.
Dcbs Wants Federation Man
Nominated.


wood for President!''
This is the battlecry of the
Socialists who are gathering in
Chicago today for the national
convention of the party, which
will begin tomorrow. While
n few of the more conservative
members of the party are OPP
posed to the Haywood boom, the
rank and file is for him.
Eugene V. Debs, the Indiana man
who in past campaigns has led the
Socialists to defeat, is among Hay
woods most devoted adherents and
was the first to suggest his nomina-
ton At that time Haywood was
still languishing in Boise jail, charged
with being the leader of the "inner
circle" of the Western Federation of
Miners and with having hired Harry
Orchard to slay Ex-Governor Steun-
enberg and a score of others. Since
his aeQuittal, Haywood has been tour
ing the country in the furth erance of
his presidential boom. For time
he was paid by the Western Fedora
ton of Miners as its travelling repre-
sentative. but he was recently drop
ped from the rolls and no longer has
any official connection with the
union.
For the first time since the Social
list party became a factor in Amer
iiican politics, every state and terri
tory of the Union will have delegates
in tomorrow's convention. These
delegates will represent only the
holders of the 1ittle red cards of the
party who are paid up and in good
standing. AS the most revolutionary
of American parties and one which
proposes to overturn the existing in
dustrial order, the organization has
no source of income other than from
the workingmen who mainly com
prise its membership and each of
these is required 10 pay small sum
monthly as dues. While the party
received 4O6,230 votes in the last
election, when Eugene V. Debs was
the presidential candidate, the dues
paying membership is only about
40, ,08O. Only these will have any
voice in tomorrow's convention.
Party leaders declare that they ex-
pect the Socialist votes this fall to be
double that in 1904; and that in case
the old parties should nominate con-
servative candidates, Socialist vic
tory is among the possibilities. Not
many of the delegates, however, seri-
ously consider the election of Hay
wood but they assert that he will re-
ceive the support of many thousands
of non-Socialists who will take that
method of expressing their disap-
proval OF President Roosevelt's char
acterization of the labor leader as
an undesirable citizen"

BAND ROW UP TO TAFT.
Spokane Musicians Object to compe.
tition With Army Band.

Spokane, May 7.-William II. Taft,
secretary of war, will be called upon
by representatives of the Musicians
union of Spokane, to decide the ques-
ton whether the regimental band, now
at Fort Wright. three miles west of
here. is to be permitted to compete for
business in this city. 1t is given out
that negotiations are under way with
the management of Natatorium park.
owned by the Washington Water Pow
err company, to engage the band of
twenty-five pieces for a series of sum-
mer concerts. thus shutting out the
local players. The union contends that
the army band should confine itself to
playing at the post. where the Third
regiment is stationed. This controv-
ersy raised the old question Of the
competition of army bands against
civilian organizations which has never
been settled to the satisfaction of
either party. Representatives of the
National Federation of Musicians have
appeared before the war department in
the interest of bands in various parts
of the country. In some instances
orders have been issued recalling the
army bands while in others the con-
troversy continued until the 'bandsmen
were removed to another post

Special to mes-Republfcan.
Grinnell May I'm accordance with
the call issued by Hon. c. w. Carter,
of this city, a meeting of Cummins
forces was held last evening in the city
hall, for the purpose of perfecting the
organization of a CumminS club. The
meeting was opened by remarks upon
the political outlook in general in the
state, and the object of this particular
gathering, by Chairman Carter. He
was followed by T. j. Bray, who re-
viewed at some length and with great
clearness and force, the political sit
uation in the 9th district and in Pow
eshiek county especially. He then
took up some portions of Senator Alli-
sons record, and alleged some things
deemed very derogatory to his repu-
tation as statesman and as good rea-
sons for his being relieved from the
duties of the office he has so long
held, and asserted that all his state
ments We're fully verified by the con-
gressional record, which can bd con-
suited readily in the college library.
He closed by moving to organize the
"Grinnell Cummins club" The Off
GERS of the club are: President, c. w.
Carter; secretary. Frank P. Marvin;
treasurer George H. Hamlin Gin place

executive committee, 7. j. Bray, First
ward, Mayo Harris, Second ward, Will
liam Gardner. Third ward, and r. G..
Coutts, Fourth ward. Meetings are to
BID held at the call Of the president.
The meeting was characterized by
earnestness of purpose, with modera-
ton Of statement and discussion, per-
sonalities being avoided and only al
legged facts given that are the COM
mon property of the public, if not con-
troverted or satisfactorily explained,
and by such a tempered optimism as,
in general, accomplishes results.
Hon. Ellsworth Rominger, of Bloom
field, candidate for the nomination as
u. S. representative from the Sixth
district, was in the city yesterday re-
newing old acquaintance, making new
ones and looking after his political
prospects. He is very sanguine Of the

beg to assure YOU i'm hearty sympathy
i with the purpose of the conference, and
] have no doubt that the discussion of
/ the subject will be very helpful to us
ALL"
| Governor Johnson's letter reads: ITO
assure you that l heartily agree with
| your conclusion that the conservation
of the natural resources of our coun-
| try presents a problem demanding the
best thought of our times is super
! nuous. We have been exploiting our
resources with no thought Of the NOR
row. and the claims Of posterity upon
us should certainly be taken into ac-
| count"
| Fifty Organizations Represented.
| All of the fifty national organiza-
lions which will be represented by
delegates have expressed approval of
the purpose of the conference, and
nothing but approval is voiced in the
letters from the governors. And now
| chambers Of commerce and boards of
trade turnout the country, are adopt
ing resolutions commencing the pres
ident's course and advocating a policy
of prudent conservation. The lead in
this movement has been taken by the
Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce. The
Pittsburg resolutions call upon the
governor of Pennsylvania and the
members of the Pennsylvania con-
gressional delegation to attend the con-
ference. Many other commercial or
CARNATIONS, following this example,
are urging the governors and con-
gressional delegations of their state to
attend the conference and to lose no
chance of boosting the conservative
movement.
The Pittsburg resolutions are notable
for their vigorous exposition of the
problem of natural resources. They
refer to Pittsburg's own troubles with
floods, and to it's dependence upon the
mineral resources of the country. The
resolutions thus outline the ISSUE in
part:
Scientists and practical experts, af-
ter long investigation and study of the
natural resources of the United States
are urgently calling public attention to
the fact that our supplies of coal, oil,
natural gas. iron ore and lumber are
being rapidly depleted; that there is
an enormous but unnecessary loss of
fertility from the soil because of ignor-
ant farming and because of the pre-
ventable wash of soil from denuded
forest land into navigable streams;
that the grazing value of public lands
has been reduced so per cent because
of reckless overgrazing; that our sup
ply of standing timber, under the pres
ent rapidly increasing rate of con-
sumption. can not last over thirty
three years longer, involving also the
early destruction of the numbering in
dustry and the other allied industries
which depend on the maintenance of
the forests, and upon which, in turn,
the whole complicated structure of
business, transportation and the liv-
ing of each individual is dependent to
a very large degree"
