ENCOURAGING REPORTS.

State Campaign Chairman J. Camp
bell Cantrill Is greatly encouraged
over the reports brought and sent TO
him by prominent Democrats all over
the state. The headquarters at Louis
vile is constantly crowded by en-
thusiastic visiting Democrats, who
Sy that the outcome is most promis-
ing for a sweeping victory Of Wilson
and Marshall. Among the callers on
the Chairman a few days ago was
former State Treasurer Thos. S. Rhea,
who was defeated last year for the
nomination of State Auditor. He
showed that there were no sore spots
on him by rendering his services to
the Chairman to aid him In any way
in running up a woodworking vote.
Mr.. Rhea says that Notwithstanding

satisfaction and uneasiness over the
result of Mr.. Hughes speaking tour
Of the country, and says that some
thing has got to be done or the ''po-

Hughes is proving a great disappoint-

by abusing Wilson and everything

they were making a great hit by NOM
mating a member of the Supreme
Court for President, whose mouth has
been closed for six years on political
matters, but they are realizing their
mistake when it is too late. Patience
and shuttle the cards. Everything is
working together for good to those
who love the Lord and Democracy.

call a meeting during the month Of
October and notify all the school
board secretaries in Iowa, and at that
time take up the matter Of presenting
to the state legislature the necessity
of repeating the Iowa school laws as
they now stand, in which most of the
original sections have been SO amend
ed that it is impossible to interpret
the meaning of them, and to so col
lect those pertaining to the same
sections and enact them instead Of
the old ones.

the books and system of accounting
used by Mr.. A. l.. Clinite, the secre-
tary OF the Des Moines school
board, and also to talk with the sec
retaries Of the other larger cities in
Iowa, as well as some of those out Of
