WEST SHOULD. !
GET TOGETHER
BEHIND CUMNINS

St Paul, Oct. 4.-Congressman Gil.
bert NJ. Haugen. o. Northwood, Iowa,
and G. L. Clark, OF Des Moines, a close
personal friend of Senator A. B. Cum
Minis, were in st. Paul Friday, apply
ing the accelerator to the Cummtns
presidential boom.
They found ST, Paul republicans
willing to listen to the claims of Iowa,
whether they give the Cunamins tick
ct any votes or not N%.-'-'@ -
They called on former Congressman
f., c: Stevens and other republicans
aho"t the city and they will go to
Alexandria to interview Senator Mel
son. From Alexandria they will go to
Crookston and confer with Congress-
man Halvor Steenerson. Then they
will make a tour OF North and South
Dakota
The Iowans argue that Cummins
should be given tho support of the
middle west because it is time that
the country had a president from this
section
Congressman Haugen argues. and
he is ably seconded by Mr.. Clark, that
the power of the populous and wealthy
middle west has never been recogniZ-
ed in the east as it should be- and
that 1t is time for the people Of this
section to wake up and demand the
recognition that Is their due. The way
to secure that recognition Is, of course,
for the middle western states to unite
in support of Senator Cummins.

FOOT and MOUTH
CONFERENCE:

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct 4.--Livestock
commissioners and representatives OF
the cattle industry from thirteen mid
die states met here today to consider
the situation created by the foot and
mouth disease. Each Of the states rep
resented Is now said to be free from
the disease and an attempt will be
made at the conference to agree on a
plan by which the district will be safe
guarded against another outbreak.
Joseph H. Mercer. livestock commits
sioner Of Kansas, issued the call for
the meeting, following a conference
with J. H. Avery, president Of the live
stock sanitary board OF Texas. and DR..
D. F. Luckey, state veterinarian of
Missouri. The states officially repre-
sented are: Kansas, Missouri, Texas,
Iowa, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana,
Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico
In addition any livestock man who
wishes may attend the conference,
although all of these states are
now free from the disease. one carload
of cattle from an infected district
might spread the epidemic over all of
this territory" Mr.. Mercer said in call
ing the conference. I'm several states
the disease has not been stamped out
and recently there was another out
break in Illinois, a district through
which many cattle are shipped. Many
livestock men do not believe it wise to
risk the loss here in the middle west
of millions of dollars by allowing ship
ments through or from infected terri
tory"

London, Oct. 4.-The Russian minis
ter at Sofia has been ordered by his
government to leave the Bulgarian
capitol If within twenty-four hours
Bulgaria. does not openly break with
the Central Powers and dismiss the
Austro German officers who recently
arrived in that country to direct the
operations of King Ferdinand's army.
The other powers of the Quadruple
entente are backing up Russia in this
demand and so Bulgaria must within
a few hours decide on continued
neutrality or be considered definitely
committed to the Central Powers.
From the news received during the
past few days from the Balkans it is
considered certain that King Ferdin-
and and Premier Radoslavoff have
made their choice and are only await
ing the completion of mobilization to
strike at Serbia and assist the Austro~
German army to open the road to Con-
stantinople, which, has been sanxiously

Greece, it is believed, will live UP
to her treaty with Serbia and come to
her assistance if she is attacked by
her neighbor, but the attitude of
Roumania, which remains an only
partly modified spectator, is a matter
OF uncertainty. .zy'sl
While fully, confident of their ability
to handle the new situation, the allies
do not belittle, it, which accounts In
some respects for their activities.
Rain and the consequent mud have
prevented the Anglo French armies
from continuing their full offensive in
Artois. Fighting Of a stubborn nature,
however, is still going on in that
region, both sides endeavoring to
secure vantage points. Success here,
as in Champagne, is apparently vary
ing, although the allies are holding
virtually all the ground they gained in
last weeks thrust.
That other similar thrusts will take
place before long is the settled con-
viction of military writers, who see in
the repeated ,bombardments OF the
German positions on the Belgian coast
by British ships and big French guns,
and air raids over the German lines,
evidence of another storm brewing.
Naturally it will take some days to
prepare as the guns which now play
such a large part in the campaign
have to be brought up and this is no
easy matter after the heavy rains,
particularly in the low countries OF
Flanders and Artois.

Although lighting continues, there is
little or no change in the situation

points, are themselves pressing the
Germans at other points, practically
