zeal to vote their straight party ticket,

Taft, shown by the withdrawal of the
Taft electors from the American Repub

In the meantime. however, tine real
combination undoubtedly is not the ex-
ploded charge of Smoot through his
" Mouth between the Democrats and
the Americans. but is uuquestionably
the church Republican conspiracy TO
capture Mormon Democrats for the
Republican ticket, under the false
pretense that the non. Mormon Demo.
Gratis have combined with the Ameri.
cans, and that, therefore. it is their
duty TO combine with their brethren in
tho Republican church. and thus beat
tho Americans, The combination Is
clearly straight church combination,
and is exactly OF the nature OF the like
combination made two years. ago. But
this year the effort Is TO make it more
sweaping, and to capture practically
entire. il possible, the Democratic Mo--
mon vote in this county for the church
Republican ticket .

ANOTHER PRESIDENTIAL PANIC

According to dispatch received
from Washington, aud printed this
morning. there is great peril for Taft
throughout the country. Aud that peril
may make the election so close that The
Utah vote will decide il. II so, the
attitude Of the managers of the. Taft
interests in Utah may have given his
case away aud deprived him Of the
Presidency; because their course leaves
the question open for ultimate decision
BY the United States Supreme Court or
some supervising authority, whetAer a
mere election agency for the choosing
OF the President can resign from
ticket without resgning from the whole
ballot.
That there Is very serious alarm

DEPOT THIEVES.
Rock Island Suffers Losses at Rose
Hill and Atwood.

The Rock Island depot at Atwood
was broken into twice last week and
a small amount of freight, groceries,
and the like were stolen. The Rose
Hill depot was also broken open and
ransacked. No clue to the burglars
was left, but the officers believe the
work to have been that of tramps.
Special detectives of the Rock ISL
and have been in this city looking al.
ter number of suspicious characters,
but thus far they have been unsuc-
cessful in locating either suspects or
property.
Word received by the police de-
partment of the city this morning gives
information of further breaking and
entering of Rock Island property

Brother Of Army officer Keeps Back
Crowd Which Witnesses Tragedy
at New York.

New York, Aug 17-Capt. Peter
Conover Hams, ,Jr., of the United
States army Saturday fired six bullets
from his revolver into William e. An
mis- of New York, owner and publisher
of Burr McIntosh's' Monthly and other
magazines. Annis died in the Flush
ing hospital few hours later
Capt. Hams was accompanied by his
brother, Thornton Alexander Jenkins
Hams, magazine writer, who had
accused Annis of paying improper at
tention to the captains wife.
A crowd of gayly dressed women
including Mrs. Annis, who was at the
yacht club Annis was out on the
water in his racing sloop. Mrs, Annis
noted the coming of the Hams broth
ers, and, although they talked of real
estate, discussed the value of prop
erty in the neighborhood, she OWNED
that they sought her husband. AS Annis
approached the dock in his half rater
his wife ran to the waters edge, wav
ing her hands, and shouting to him
not to land. He gave no heed.
AS Annis and fellow club member
were landing Capt. Hams opened fire
from a magazine pistol. The GROVE
at the clubhouse rushed onto the fioa
to attempt a rescue, but Thornton
Hams drew his revolver and threat
ened to shoot the first man who in
terfered.
This is an affair between these
two, he said, calmly.
Capt Hams and his brother, neither
of whom appeared in any way dis
turbed, awaited the arrival of the pc
lice on the club float and then sur
| rendered themselves.

.CORLEIT IS HONORED
County Clerk Elected President Of
State Association.

l.. e. Corlett, of Oskaloosa, has been
elected president of the Association or
the Clerks of the District Court OIL
Iowa. The gentleman came in for
goodly portion of the honors of the re-
cent convention held at Waterloo and
as climax he was elected to the place
of president for the coming year.
The meeting was held in conjunction
with those of the other county ON
GERS. The first meeting was joint
affair, when clerks, auditors, recorders
and the others met as one body and
We're formally received by the repre-
sentatives of the city of Waterloo.
Mr.. Corlett made the response on the
part of the Clerks. This speech is
said to have been in a particularly
happy vein and attracted the atten-
ton of the body toward the young man.
Then when Mr.. Corlett was called to
preside at a session of the convention
during the enforced absence OF tue
president, Mr.. S. NJ. Bentley, who was
summoned from the convention by
death in his family, the assembly was
more than favorably impressed with
his ability. That settled it. and he
was made president of the association
for the coming year at the election of
officers.
Oskaloosa was looking for the loca.
ton of the convention for next year
Sioux City, however, had large dele
CATION present seeking the location OF
the next meeting and to that town 1t
went by general consent.
County Recorder U. G. Deck was on
the program for the Recorders con.
yention. He was unable to be in at
tendance, however. on account of the
pressure of business affairs in this
city. The paper was forwarded to the
convention and read before the as
sembly fraters by the president.
R. W, Moore. of the Mahaska coun-
ty Board of Supervisors, accompanied
Mr.. Corlett to Waterloo and represent
ed this county in the meeting of the
supervisors.
The Oskaloosa people speak well OF
the convention. the people met and
the discussions heard, and they are en-
tnusiastic over the reception accorded
them by the Waterloo people.

cUMMINs is NOT DECIDED.
Governor Not Ready to Talk of the
Senatorship.

Des Moines, Aug. 17.-Governor
Cummins returned home yesterday
from Clarindn where lie reviewed the
Fifty-fifth regiment OF the Iowa Ma
tional guard on Friday.
He was not prepared to make a
statement with respect to the senator
ial succession, regarding decision as
of the legislature to amend the pri-
mary law or to appoint to fill the va
cancy until the legislature of this
winter.
1t is thought that the governor will
reach conclusion on the matter the
coming week. 1t still is said that a
large majority of his closest advisers
favor the amendment to the primary
law to allow the voters of the party 20
select the senatorial candidate.
Lawyers differ as to whether it will
be necessary for an extra session to
remain in session until the second
Tuesday after its organization before
electing senator to fill vacancy.
While it has been thought at the state
house that it would have to wait for
the second Tuesday after organizing,
many fine lawyers think that an extra
session may elect Immediately on con-
vening II it sees fit. At first it was
thought the extra session would not
have to be together more than two or
three days. If the extra session is
called, however. it will be to amend
the primary law, first; II it elects a
senator to fill the short term-til.
March A. 1909-it will be incidental.
If 1t fails, however. to elect the gov
ernor cannot then appoint to fill the va
cancy,
