HEWITT SUCCESSOR
FIGHT WARNING UP

Frank Woods, a Democrat of Ko-
hala, is leading the race as successor
of the late Senator George S. Hewitt,
according to news received from
Hilo. 1t is believed he will take the
solid Democratic vote in the district,
while Rev. Stephen Desha and Jim
Lewis are expected to divide the Re-
publican vote, with probably the for
mer in the lead. Desha was the first
man to file his official candidacy pa
pers and since that time has been
working hard. Charles K. Motley, the
Home Ruler, is also in the fight. Hem
Iy Beckley and Supervisor Kanhane
have both caught the election-lust. but
so far have refused to openly admit
that they are candidates.

Buffalo Nickels Getting Scarce.

The newly coined Buffalo nickels,
(which were in circulation few
months ago in great number, have
dropped out of sight and it is said
they are rarely received over bank
counters here at the present time.
Even large handlers of the smaller
coins are not turning in many of the
Buffalo nickels. The sudden short
age is explained by some bankers in
that many persons are boarding the
new coins as souvenirs and with the
thought that they will soon go out of
circulation entirely and will demand
a premium in a few years. Compar-
atively small coinage was expect
ed this year, and those who came into
possession of the new coins held
them. Color is given to this theory
in the case of man who deposited
recently 81 in the new nickels say
ing that he was tired of boarding
them.
The coinage of all silver and baser
metal coins has been unusually
small this year. Money OF 1913
coinage is very scarce, and the work
of the government minis has been
slow. 1t has been the custom OF the
government to strike a medal every
four years in commemoration of the
president and these medals usually
appear few months after the inaug-
uration. The Wilson medal, now long
past due, has not yet appeared.

Tuberculosis Day, Sunday, Dec. 9TH.

Des Moines, Oct 17.-Sunday, Dec.
7th is Tuberculosis Day. This day,
or some day near to this date, will be
observed Throughout Iowa. The pull
pits of the various churches will be
generally occupied by clergy or lay
men who will deliver sermons or ad-
dresses on the various phases of the
combat against tuberculosis.
The state department has prepar-
ed complete outline which will be
supplied throughout the state to all
persons who desire to speak on this
subject. In addition, it is proposed
to distribute literature dealing with
this disease 1t is believed that prac-
tically all of the pulpits of the state
will be utilized on that day as in the
past where there has been the most
intimate cooperation existing be-
tween the churches and the state de-
partment. 1t would be difficult to
measure the vast influence of tuber-
culosis Day on the prevention of
disease. The day will come at the
gateway of winter and thousands OF
speakers will warn the people against
sleeping in unventilated rooms and
lack of ventilation in the public and
parochial schools of the state. A
great deal of attention will be paid
to the county tuberculosis hospital
law and the immediate necessity for
the isolation of advanced consump-
tives and their adequate care. 1t is
known now that one consumptive in
the advanced stages of the disease
may infect an entire family and that
a neglected consumptive may endan-
ger an entire community. However,
there is no tendency toward undue
alarm but an intelligent cooperation
toward making the consumptive
comfortable while safeguarding the
community interests.
Another big feature of Tuberculosis
is Day will be the impulse it will give
the sale Of the Red Cross Christmas
Seal. The state department on tu-
berculosis is using the seal as an edu-
cational factor, as the experience
from previous years shows that this
little teacher is very valuable in the
dissemination Of knowledge. The
Red Cross Christmas Seal will ap-
pear prominently throughout the en-
tire state on this national day. Let
everybody cooperate. Let clergy ev-
erywhere feel the necessity for the
development of a sanitary con-
science" among our people.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, Oct. 13--Special Cor
respondence.-TWo events of the last
few days held to be deeply signifi
cant by the members of loWas dele
cation in congress show that the OPP
position to Senator Cummins from
prOgressiVes with whom he was
formerly associated is growing, and
that hot three cOrnered fight is I'M
der way in the seventh district which
brightenS the chances for the cleo
ton of another democratic congress-
man.
An extended article from the pen
of Casper Schenck, formerly one Of
Senator Cummins' staunchest sup
porters, appeared in the Des Moines
Register and Leader few days ago,
in which it was declared that Cum
Minis cannot hope to retain the sup
port Of his progressive friends if he
runs on the republican ticket. Mr..
Schenck said it was with regret that
the progressives saw that Having
led his division so gallantly at Don
nelson, Senator Cummins is no.
with them at Shiloh" The progress
sives werc not organizing to defeat
Senator Cummins, Mr.. Schenck in
sisted, but he said the! were work
ing to carry out their program and
"they were willing to sacrifice them
selves. they expected to sacrifice
many good men who honestly oppos-
ed them. and they were willing tc
sacrifice even Mr.. Cummins" He
added that the best men are as
nothing compared with the cause
Touching on Senator Cummins' re-
cent course as indicated by his
speeches, Mr.. Schenck, voicing the
opinion of the progressives who will
have their candidate for senator in
the field, declares that ION all these
matters, the progressives mean to go
forward. The senator (Mr. Cum
mins) elects to standpat."
The situation in the seventh dis
trict which makes democratic
chances appear bright is brought
about by the announcement that
Congressman Prouty will not be a
candidate for reelection, and in this
connection it is charged that an
agreement was made before the last
fight for the nomination of which
Mr. Prouty promised to step aside
this year and allow Cash Dowell of
Polk county to have the nomination.
The progressive resent this bargain
ing for the nomination and claim to
have proof of it in spite of denials
entertained. They are getting be-
hind John MacVicar, former mayor
of Des Moines and Senator Cummins'
manager when a candidate for the
presidency at the Chicago conven-
ton last year. The seventh has al
ways polled big progressive vote
and the present indications make it
appear rosy for the democratic nOmi-
nee with such strong man as Mac
