SHOCK TO ALL IOWA.
psatI, Of poIiiver Personal Grief t,
People Of State.

Special to Times-Republtcan.
Des Moines, Oct. 1.-THE sudden
death of Senator Dolliver came as a
great shock to every one in Iowa. He
had been regarded as Of such strength
Of person that nobody had ever con-
sidered the possibility OF his dropping
out of the senate. He had three years
yet to go on his present term and he
was sure of reelection. His sudden
taking of therefore brings chaos.
Senator Cumnnins, upon hearing of
the death, Immediately Cancelled his In
diana speaking dates, and he and Mrs.
Cummins went to Fort Dodge at the
request Of the president Of the senate
and to assist in making the arrange
ments for the funeral. The disposition
Of everyone is to disparage discussion
Of the political phases Of the situation
thus creatAd, but because it Is in the
very heart OF campaign this can not
be overlooked.
II the death Of. the senator had oc-
Cured week earlier there would have
been necessarily a submission to the
voters son election day the matter Of
the choosing OF his successor. But it Is
now left with the governor to fill the
vacancy with an appointment that will
hold only until the legislature meets.
It will then be the duty OF the legis-
lature to elect. Nobody has paid the
slightest attention to the legislative
ticket nor to the preferences of the
candidates. Very likely there will be
acauiesence in some sort of an agree
ment or understanding that all con-
sideration Of the senatorial matter be
deferred until after the election, so far
as the legislature is concerned.
Republicans all agree that the death
Of the senior senator is a great blow
to the party in state and in nation.
Great things were expected Of him in
the next few years in the senate, where
he was just coming into his own by
reason OF recognition Of his wonderful
ability and by reason OF his dong SER
vice.
Undoubtedly a committee Of the
senate will attend the funeral and
there will be more general mourning
over his demise than In the case Of al
most any other member Of the senate.
He was known all over the country be-
cause Of his speaking campaigns and
his lecture engagements, and more re-
Gently because OF his conspicuous work
In the senate.
Governor May Not Fill Vacancy.
Il Is probable that the SUCCESSOR Of
Senator Jonathan p. Dolliver will not
be known until next January. At that
time the man to fill tho two years un-
expired term will be elected by the
state legislature.
