MARSH NOT A CANDIDATE.
Will Not Seek Democratic Nomination
For Governor.


Burlington. jan. 2s.---W. w. Marsh,
democratic national committeeman for
Iowa, while in the city to attend the
conference of First district democratic
leaders, declared he was not a candi-
date for governors The gentleman
talked very frankly and in reply to the
query as to whether Ior not she was

cratic nomination for governor. an
honor which the democratic press has
unanimously sought to bestow upon
him, replied:
Il am not candidate nor will be-
come one in any circumstance. I have
large business interests :. in Waterloo
which demand my attention If I were
the nominee and if should happen to
be elected, it would mean that 1 would
have to- give up my residence at
Waterloo for the time being. At the
conclusion of my service as governor,
would return to my home town with
no greater prestige than enjoy there
today. have no desire for office what
soever. 1t is true that 1 am in poll
t.cs but that is solely due to the fact
that I believe that it is the duty of
every loyal citizen to devote part of
mis- time and talent to what SO con-
Germs us all. There is but one condi-
ton in which I could be drafted as q
candidate and that condition does not
exist now nor will it come about. If I
were the only man upon whom the
democrats could unite and were con-
ditions such that my services were i'm
peratively demanded might be
drafted. But there are a thousand
Iowa democrats who would make a
better governor than I. You can state
most emphatically that I am not a
candidate and will not become one.
When the time comes you will find
that the democrats will have nomi-
mated candidate for governor who
will measure up to the full standard.
Take Emmett FINLEY, of Council Bluffs,
or Ed Meredith, of Des Moines, for in
stance. Either would be anzideal can

and no internal injuries were sustained
SO far as could be1earned. The bull.
young animal about 2 years old, at
tackled Lund without warning when he
went into the barnyard yesterday
morning. Lund fought the- animal to
standstill with pitchfork, but was
unable to get to the house after the
bull had been vanquished and left
Lund lying on the ground. He was dis
covered by members Of the family soon
afterward and assisted to the house
and medical aid quickly summoned.
The ice-covered ground added to the
intensity of the battle between man
and bull. The bull had fairly long
horns, and Lund's escape from beirg
fatally gored was very fortunate.

CONVENTION OF LAYMEN,
Churchmen to Meet in Missionary
Work at Davenport.

work at Davenport.
Davenport, Jan. 2S.-ArrangemeHts
are well under way for a big conven-
ton Of laymen to be held in Daven-
port, Feb. 16 to 10 and 20, under the
auspices of the laymen's missionary
movement. 1t is expected that 1900
men, representing churches in north
western Illinois and eastern Iowa. will
be present at the convention. The
meeting is one of about seventy five
that are being held over the country
in which every important missionary
agency in America, home as we'll as
foreign is cooperating.
The main detectives of the campaign
and considerations of the convention
will be the discussion of new world
conditions resulting from the war and
other changes; the study of mission
airy progress of recent years; the pro-
lection of plans for the larger accom-
plishment of our missionary duty; the
empha sizing Of the adequacy of the
gospel to meet social conditions
It is expected that the convent ton
will result in great increase of spirit
ual power and efficiency in the local
churches: the more general use of
better methods in missionary educa-
ton, church efficiency and finance:
the inspiration Of large numbers OF
laymen to take their part in the ex-
tension of the kingdom of Christ; the
inspiration Of vision and spirit, for the
accomplishm Of great things by the
men of the churches.
Altho the laymen's missionary move
ment originated but six years ago. it
has already held hundreds of great
conventions in different parts of the
United States and Canada. These con-
ventions have been attended by thous-
ands of registered delegates: and this
seems the most remarkable when it is
understood that they are especially for
men and primarily in the interest of
missions TWenty-onc conventions in
the series have already been held with
an attendance of over $4,000 registered
men. This is an average of about L.
700 for each convention.

Of the Iowa National Guard to act as

son on the occasion Of their visit to

companies from Fort Dodge, one from

are the companies General Logan has
: in mind and the participation of the
two Fort Dodge companies and the
Ames ceIlpany will depend on whether
or. not the railroads will grant them
transportation.
The providing Of free transportation
to- companies Of the Iowa National
Guard is one Of the things the rail-
roads have generously done in recent
years. When, the anti-pass legislation
was placed on the statute books Cen
eral Logan and others interested in the
state militia saw to 1t that the statutes.
exempted the militia from the restric-
lions of the anti-pass law. And on
many occasions since then the state
has had to reply on the generosity of
the railroads to carry it's troops. When
General Dodge was buried out at
Council Bluffs recently the Burlington
railroad transported the national guard
troops which took part in the funeral
free transportation. Now that the
president is coming to Des Moines an
other request for free transportation
will be made Of the railroads.
