Third District Most Sensitive.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct 1.-Of
all the eleven congressional districts
of Iowa, it seems the Third will be
most sensitive to the free trade pro.
visions OF the new democratic tariff
act This is the information which re.
publican members Of the Iowa delega
tion are receiving from the state.
That the democratic tariff law al
ready is in such disfavor from one end
of the third district to the other as
to make certain the sending of re.
publican representative to congress
next year, is the word which comes
from Dubuque, Waterloo, Waverly,
independence and other places in the
district.
The opinion prevails among leading

|DoWELL TO MAKE RACE
Believed Retirement is to Make Room
for Polk County Senator Who
Got Out Of Prouty's
Way.
Especial to The Gate City.l

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 11The
announcement by Judge Solomon F.
Prouty that he would not be candi-
date for third term as representative
in congress from the Seventh district,
caused no surprise among members
OF the Iowa delegation in Washington.
The fact that the judge was serving
his last term as representative has
been pretty well understood for sever
al months by his colleagues and other
friends In Washington, for he has
talked freely about the matter, yet al
ways saying he was not ready to make
statement for publication. The rea-
son given by the Judge for not wishing
to make statement before the regu-
lar session Of congress was that he
was working hard for the passage nf
certain bills and that If 1t should be
generally known among the member.
ship of the house that he was about to
retire, his influence would be weaken
ed
There is telling among some OF
Judge Prouty's friends that he is be-
ing forced to retire because of an
agreement which is thought to have
been entered into between him and
former State Senator Cassius G. Dow
ell Of Polk county, during the primary
campaign last year. 1t will be remem.
bered that Mr.. Dowell, who was a
candidate for the nomination, sudden
ly pulled out in favor Of Judge Prouty,
leaving the judge an easy victory.

A BIG FIRE At JACKSON
ALMOST DESTROYS TOWN
Sweeps Business Section Up in
FIameS-LOss Is About

Jackson. Ky, Nov. Practically
the whole business section of Jack
son was destroyed by fire early to-
day. Two blocks of buildings were
burned, Including the post-office
Thompson Hotel, two churches and
a score of residences. The loss is
estimated at 100000.
AS a result of the fire the inhabi-
tants are demoralized and a tele-
gram has been sent TO Gov. McCrea-
~ asking him TO call out the Jack
son company of militia to protect
property, as il is feared the local
authorities are unable to do so.
The hotel was first destroyed and
the flames then swept to the west
side of Broadway for two blocks,
despite the efforts of the firemen.
The east side of the street was also
fre-swept, and Main street was in
cluded in the fire area as far as the
First National Bank, which was not
greatly ududSeu.
The buildings burned. which will
be a total loss. are: The Thompson
Hotel, Dr. A. II. Patterns Office build

Stidman's jewelry store, the jack
son Real Estate Agency building, T.

vacant; Mrs. Bakers millinery shop
and the residence of DR.. Thompson
The greatest number of the build
ings were frame and offered little
resistance TO the fire, and in most
cases the contents of the buildings
as we'll as the structures themselves
are a total loss. The damage was
estimated early this morning al
$4,000. but It may be in excess OF
this amount when the extent of the
loss to stocks of goods is ascertain.
