Farm Journal Mobiles.
A significant note Of disagreement
comes from the office Of the Iowa
Homestead. That weekly farm journal
| has not come out for LaFOllette or
anyone else, but certainly 1t is not
showing any symptoms Of coming out
for the Taft denomination. Mr.. Pierce
has been one of LATE Young's right
hand men. 1t was in the Homestead
office that was printed most OF the
literature for the John Il. Adams COM

other things, the nomination Of Carroll

paper has come out for LaFollette and
his Missouri paper against Taft, The
Homestead, this week takes a hard fall

EX-President Roosevelt that the ad-

received the support OF Commissioner
Thorne, and was urged for the place
by Mr.. Wallace and other friends.
LENDERS OF the senate who had to do
with confirming the appointment
