Latter Has Raised An
Issue.


DIES MONIES, Ia, oct. 9.-(SpeciaL)-
At last there is a good prospect that the
state campaign in this state will take on
some semblance of real contest between
parties. This week there will be at least
dozen different speakers out at work.
The republicans will have Governor Car
roll on the stump. also Senators Dolliver
and Cummins and most Of the congress
men and candidates for congress. It is
announced that both Of the senators viii
do a great deal OF speaking in the state
and will contribute largely to the result.
The democrats will have Mr. Bryan. also
Claude Porter, Senator Z. G. Moon, Judge
NJ. J. Wade, John Dennison, Jerry 3. Sui
Ivan and a great many others. The Bryan
meetings in the Seventh and Eighth dis
tricts are likely to prove of great import
ance in fixing the issues Of the campaign.
Among the republicans there is great
rejoicing because Of the announcement
from Washington yesterday that the pres
ident has appointed Mr.. Clark as post
master at Newton. This was one Of the
most conspicuous Of the cases from Iowa
that had caused friction and which
threatened the success Of the entire ticket.
Clark had been recommended for post
master and was appointed, but afterwards
his name was withdrawn. There has been
practical agreement among all republicans
at Newton that Clark was an excellent
man. Congressman Kendall determined
he would stand by him. 1t was never made
just clear why his name was withdrawn
until the recent Norton letter in regard
! TO the dispensation OF patronage. But until
| the matter was settled there was little
hope of the election of republican to con-
gress in that district; in fact the situation
was causing so much trouble that it had
thrown dar tl,s .l,,1
Now 1t is stated that with the atmos-
phere cleared there will be a great
strengthening of the republican ticket all
over the state.
Bryan on American Politics.
Il am deeply interested in your demo-
| cratic candidates for congress in this state
and will speak especially for them" said
Hon. William j. Bryan, as he tarried at
democratic state headquarters between
trains Saturday.
Il suppose you want to know about the
next congress. Well it will be democratic.
l can't give you exact figures on the ma
jority It is more important that it be in
fact controlled by the democrats
When it was suggested to him that a
local standpat editor had expressed a
/ hope of about seventy-five democratic ma
jority, he added: Il expect that's about
right, but anyway it will be enough"
what do you think Of Colonel Roose-
velt?' was asked.
IT'S an interesting study. I am watch
ing him. You will notice that the quality
of his insurgency varies according to To-
cality. He appears to be a great deal
more of an insurgent in Kansas than in
New York. AS for his new nationalism
l am not quite certain. If he will submit
a diagram showing what is new in his
nationalism and national in his newism,
will try to pass judgment upon it. But
in what he has been saying and doing
there is not very much that is either new
or national.
The proposal for the national incorpora-
ton Of railroads is likely to come nearest
to raising a question to the concenua-
ton of power in the nation But he is
going to find great many republicans I'M
willing to follow him in this proposal All
the democrats will be against It, Hence
there is not much prospect Of an issue
there. The democratic attitude toward the
railroad question is clear. We democrats
as expressed in our national platform,
favor the solving of all intrastate ques-
lions under state authority and the ma
tional solution of interstate problems. In
other words, the federal authority is to be
invoked only to supplement the state au-
luuIllg anu 10 De USED only WQen ana
where the state authority will not suffice.
There is no occasion for a federal au-
thority supplantlng state authority.
Now as to conservation" continued Mr..
Bryan, you will notice that the New York
platform seeks to avoid raising the issue
OF national or state supremacy by refer
ing to both as necessary. That would in
dicste that the new advocates Of conserva-
ton are not quite sure of their position |
In fact 1t would be hard to say that it was
change of front or a backdown from the
attitude at st. Paul, because that was
never made very clear
ION the whole" said Mr. Bryan, demo- !
cratic prospects are very bright. 1 have
made on speech in Kansas and several in |
Missouri. Everywhere the democrats are
making a gallant fight for the principles |
they have long supported. anticipate that
Iowa will make good report of itself"
Mr.. Bryan stopped off between trains on |
the way from Pella to Osceola and spent
an hour at headquarters.
This week he speaks at Corning and
Creston on Tuesday, Leon and Osceola on |
Wednesday and Abel and Des Moines on
Thursday.
