Des Moines, April 15.-The an
nouncement Of the candidacy of Cover
nor Carroll and determination to sub
nit his name again to the voters for
approval or disapproval at the June
primary caused no surprise after the
conference Of B. Murphy, eX-state
printer, with Secretary Nye and others
Of the political advisers of the COVER
nor. At the headquarters Of the Cum
Minis olliver- Garst committee there
was no disposition TO criticize.
1T is pretty much like the entire
administration" said one.
Evidently the fact has not yet pen
etrated 10 the state house that we are
in the midst Of one Of the greatest
political conflicts of our time, said an
other.
About the city and even in the CORR
doris Of the capitol there was no sensa-
tional eagerness to read and digest the
governors platform. One OF his most
prominent appointees expressed the
view, after reading il. that it was all
over, and unless a more vigorous de-
Tense could be put up there would be

The statement on the part of the
governor thai he had no knowledge OF
the standpat conference held in con-
junction with the good roads meeting,
and which resulted in formation of the
Jackson committee, came as a surprise
1t has now been five weeks since Mr.
BerryhiIl, on behalf Of the Mckinley
syndicate, wrote the platform which
was adopted, and during all this time
the governor had not once given an
intimation that he was in ignorance Of
the plans of the regular standpatters
or that he did not fully approve their
program for indorsing Taft and not in
dorsing the Iowa senators. In fact there
is evidence that his inlln ediate politi-
cal managers have been active in as
ISOLATION with the Jackson standpat
committee and 1t has been limited that
after the date for filing nominations the
governor would come out strong for the
Jackson -Berryhill Mckinley program
AS 70 whether or not the campaign
for governor will be conducted from
eadquarte-s separate from the Jack
son committee is not now known. From
the manner it was launched it is ex-
pected that the two movements will be
kept separate. The governor has

mand-Secretary Nye, Commissioner
Van Duyn, Secretary Moore, Secre-
tary Sumner. General Byers, Nj. Ellis,

There has been no disposition on the

The state Of Iowa is going to build a
dozen or more silos at the state farms
and feed silage to the dairy herds.
Having set a good example for the 9TH
er farmers of the state in most matters
it is now contemplated that silo con-
struction shall be done. A committee
consisting OF John F. Wade, NJ N Vol
deng and F. j. Sessions, went yesterday
TO AI1les to consult with the college
people in regard TO the way to build
silo and the best kind of material
for a silo. 1t is very likely that hol-
low brick silos will be built Concrete
is also good but brick is little cheap
er. 1t was represented TO the board of
control at the last meeting that wood
alone was suitable for silos and the
committee has been making an investi-
cation which has Convinced them that
some other material is better.
There seems to be very great proba-
bility of the consideration of the name
of Justice Deemer in connection with
the vacancy on the supreme bench It
was feared. for time, that Iowa was
50 completely on the blacklist at Wash
ington that no Iowa man would be con-
sidered for any place. Within the past
week, however, information has been
received which shows that it is real
lied that Iowa is on the map. If Judge
Deener should be appointed to the fed
eral bench it would cause a lively stir
among the lawyers for the filing of his
place.
Some surprise was expressed here On
learning that Speaker Cannon had been
invited by Congressman Hull on the
suggestion Of w. o. Payne, to make the
Fourth of July address, at Nevada Ii ne
accepts this will be the first appear
ance of the speaker in the Seventh dis
