they are scattered throughout the en-
tire territory SO that their vote in
unison would defeat almost any re-
publican candidate. The progressives
muster about one hundred thousand
throughout the state; they are largely
in the majority throughout the north
portion, but their vote, cast in unison
would be sufficient to defeat almost
any republican candidate. That is the
situation. Does the Register and
Leader desire to father a situat ton
which will array the factions in bat
tie front on the eve of an election with
all opponent that can muster perhaps
one hundred and twenty thousand
votes in its own right?
In truth, the progressive strength
has never been rightly measured, for
in every prior test they have had the
help of many thousands of demo.
Gratis. This year they will not have
this help. If prOgreSsiveism is made
the test OF party tealty at this time,
democracy will carry Iowa by fifty
thousand. Every republican congress
man, save Woods, who has no oppo
sition, will be defeated. For our part
we do not like this outlook. We are
ready to give and take. We are not
ready to give and not take, however,
and we believe the regular republi
cans throughout the state are in the
same frame of mind. The questions
propounded to Mr.. Let's can have but
one purpose and but one result and
that tLa wholesale defeat OF repub!i-
can candidates. AS leader of re-
publican thought does the Des Moines
paper wish to father such chaos or to
give it friendly aid and encourage
ment?

ON DANGEROUS GROUND.

In the second congressional district
Grilk. progressive, was nominated
for congress. Let's, standpatter,
was nominated for state senator and
an earnest effort was made to unite
the factions on give and take basis.
The Register and Leader on Monday
prints a series OF questions which have
been submitted to Mr.. Let's, the evi
dent intent of which is to embarass
him by making him declare for whom
he will vote for United States senator
to succeed Mr.. DOlliver. The Register
and Leader evidently hopes to force
some action looking to a special pri-
mary which it hopes the prOgressives
would win. What the Des Moines pa
per fails to see is that the effect Of
this drawing the line will be fully as
disastrous to erik as to Let's. If
the ''entente cordial is destroyed in
the second district, Let's may be de-
feated for state senator, but Grilk
will surely be defeated for congress.
This situation prevails throughout
Iowa. There is safety only in letting
the question Of senatorial succession
rest until after election. The only out
come of agitation at present will be
the success of the democratic ticket
and the election of a democratic
United States senator. 1t also means
the defeat of several republican can
didates for congress. For our part we
believe the imperative duty of the re-
publicans of Iowa is to stay together,
to elect republican Legislature and
to let the question of senatorial sue
ceSSiOn take care of itself when we
are sure that a republican of some
kind or color will be chosen. The at
tempt to defeat Let's because he is a
regular will react on Legislative candi-
dates throughout the state. If nature
is allowed to take its course, if the
fight of faction is not renewed, it is
undoubtedly fact that the progress
ives will have majority of the re
publicans in the next general assemb-
ly. The progressives ought to be
content with this. If they attempt
to deprive the regulars of all repre-
sentation they will precipitate a fight
right at the close of the campaign
which will insure a democratic legis-
lature. We suppose it is inevitable
that personal ambitions shall rule the
republican party of Iowa, but we had
hoped that the universal mourning
at the bier of Dolliver would allay
factionalism rather than augment it,
and that in his name and for his sake
the grand old party might rally for a
victory regardless of isms and am,
billions and spites.
The regular republicans of Iowa
muster upwards of ninety thousand.
They are largely in the majority in
the southern part of the state, but

THE SENATORIAL SITUATION.

AS to the senate, the constitution OF
the United States says: IF vacancies
happen by resignation, or otherwise,
during the recess of the legislature OF
any state, the executive thereof may
make temporary appointments until
the next meeting of the Legislature,
which shall then fill such vacancies
Gov Carroll may make an appoint
ment to temporarily fill the place
made vacant by the death of Senator
Dolliver 1t is optional with him
whether he shall do so or not. 1t is
made mandatory upon the Legislature
at it's next meeting to fill the vacancy.
If the legislature, to assemble in
January, shall refuse to comply with
it's constitutional obligation the va
cancy will continue. If the governor
should make an appointment, and If
the legislature should fail to make an
election. the appointment Of the gov
ernor would lapse with the adjourn
ment of the legislature. This is the
situation in nutshell
The proposal of the democratic
state committee for voluntary prl-
mary for the selection of candidates
to recommend to the legislature is in
the nature of buncombe. There is no
provision under the existing primary
law to meet the emergency that has
arisen. Two years ago, following the
death of Senator Allison, the legisla-
ture was convened in special session
and an amendment to the primary law
was adopted to meet the case then
presented 'If the candidate of any
party for the Office of senator in the
congress OF the United States who has
received the highest number of votes
in his party at any primary election
as candidate for such office, die,
resign or remove from the state Of
his residence, or of any other cause
a vacancy in such candidacy shall oc-
cur after such primary election is held
and before thirty days prior to the
day OF the general election in Novem-
Der next following the law provides,
"a new primary shall be held by ,ne
members of such party on the day
of such general election for the pur-
pose of again nominating or express
ing their choice for candidate for
such Office" The present situation is
to be met as if there were no primary
Law bearing On the choice Of senators
in congress. The democratic proposal
is in The nature of a bluff. 1t is a
mere tWo-spot in the game OF partisan
politics.
To be sure, it has been suggested in
othas quarters that the legislature, in
stead OF proceeding to the election OF
senator, might disregard its con-
stitut;onal obligation and proceed in
stead to another amendment to the
primary law under which nominations
could ~. made on a day specified.
After action had been taken under
the amended law, it is suggested the
legi6tait!,e should be reaSSembled in
speciat session to take action upon the
nominations thus presented to it. 1t
is wholly improbable that popular as
sent can be secured for plan of such
devious and dilatory character, ac-
companied by the heavy expense of
special election and a special session
of the legislature. 1t is not worth
while to project debate over this and

corning him. Having visited the COL
lege several years before, and having
heard only concentrations of the man,
the minister the president, we called
the senator out of his seat and asked
him to state his views of DR.. Lewis

his piety and in his judgment. His
preaching varies; occasionally he has
a hard time as the fathers used to
say, but at other times he brings
heaven and earth together, and GER
tainly is full of the Holy Ghost In
this conversation he expressed his
idea that whatever mans other
qualities for bishop, he must be Of un-
doubted piety. The bishops appointed
him as one of the delegates to the
general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church, south, at it's session
in 1898. DR.. E. E. Hoss, now bishop
Of that church, was employed by US
to report the occasion for The Chris
tan Advocate, and this is the picture
he drew:
"Mr. Dolliver is very handsome
young man, not more than thirty-five
years of age, with coal-black hair, a
prominent nose and speaking mouth.
1t is keeping within the limits of sober
truth to say that he delivered real
Grafton. 1t was worthy to have been
heard in any deliberative assembly in
the world. With perfect frankness
and without reserve I do not hesitate
to say that Mr.. Dolliver is the most
accomplished orator that it has been
my privilege'to hear for many years.
The picture which he drew of the
pioneer circuit rider, and the salute
which he gave to the superannuated
preacher, carried everything by storm.
He was interrupted again and again,
as ne proceeded, with rapturous ap-
plause.
Even the speaker touched upon the
delicate question of organic union he
did it with so much skill as not merely
to arouse no antagonism, but also to
evoke the heartiest sort of hand clap
ping. In body and substance, as we'll
as in form and finish, the whole effort
deserves to be ranked very high. There
was certain comprehensiveness and
breadth of view, certain freedom
from a narrow and partisan spirit, a
pervading atmosphere of the most cos
mopoIitan Christian charity, all of
which left profound and lasting i'm
preston.
IF this young man, so brilliant in
genius and SO saturated with the very
spirit of Methodism, does not leave
his mark upon the history of the coun-
try, then l shall be greatly surprised"

that prophecy was written. Prophecy
