"Iowans, regardless of party, owe
it to our president : to demonstrate
their sympathy and approval of his
work by selecting candidates this fall
who are thoroughly in sympathy with
his views, and will support him in the
work he has yet to do" says Doctor
Reynolds.
iowa can do the president and the
nation q great service by keeping at
home such congressman as Hull, Hau-
gen and Remseyer, whose records on
war legislation cannot be evaded.
I'm the election of Claude r. Porter
for governor the state will do itself
proud. Porter is a man Of action, not
of words. He will issue few procla-
nations, but he will be terror to the
disloyal. He is not man to be domi-

to subject himself to the dictations
of any particular body Of men. There
will be no Kitchen cabinet with Por-

.PORTER'S SUCCESS.

Iowa City PreSs-Claude Porter, the
Democratic nominee for governor of
Iowa, has won a notable success and
generous recognition in the verdict
against the I. w. w. at Chicago, in
Guiding the notorious w. D. Haywood,
who for years has been a disturber Of
the peace in the labor world.
1t was an honor for Porter to have
been selected for this important duty.
called as he was from his post as
United States attorney for the south
ern district Of Iowa. He was chosen
because Of his recognized ability, and
because Of his familiarity with many
phases of the labor situation through
cases he had tried here.
The convictions secured against the
l. w. w. at Chicago are regarded as
Of the utmost Importance, as many
similar cases are pending, and it Is
well known that Mr.. Porter was
largely responsible for the assembling
and presentation Of the mass of evil
dence which made this verdict pos
sible. ...r
Mr.. POrter's duties as district attor-
ney will considerably restrict his cam
paign for the governorship, since his
public duties have first call on hit
time and talent. He will in the near
future begin the trial of the case
against the four prominent Davenport
men, headed by Fred Vollmer, who
were charged with conspiring to bring
to Davenport the notorious Wallace.
now under sentence at Leavenworth
for urging resistance to the draft.
However, Mr.. Porter's eloquent
tongue will be heard in many of the
counties of the state before the cleo
ton, and it is possible he may be
heard in Johnson county, where he is
strong favOrite.

CONGESTION IS ACUTE.
Rail Embargo Placed on Grain
to Western Markets.
Order Affects Minneapolis, st. Paul,
Duluth, Chicago, Milwaukee
Hill and Other Points.

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-The regional d.
rectors of the railway administration,
owing to the fact that grain is piling
up so rapidly at Western terminal
markets, have issued an embargo no.
tice against further shipments of
grain to several points effective
Sept. 10. .@
Because of rapid approach to limit
of grain storage" the order says. 1T
becomes necessary to place embargo
against all shipments of all grain con-
signed or reconsigned to Minneapolis,
Duluth, st. Paul, Kansas City, st.
Louis, St. Joseph, Omaha, Council
Bluffs, Milwaukee and Chicago, and to
regulate future shipments Of gra n to
these markets on rermit basis, such
permits to be issued in cooperation
with the Food administration. Appli-
cation may be made by shipper or
agent at point of origin.
"Such requests transmitted to desig.
mated grain control committee of each
market, which shall. approve such re-.
quests as can be given storage, notify
ing the agent at point Of origin that
shipment may be made accordingly"
Joint Regulation Of Grain Traffic.
Washington, Sept. IL Railroad
grain shipments hereafter will be reg.
ulated jointly by the Railroad and
Food administrations through a sys.
tenn in solving issuing of permits by
committees In different grain zones.
The step was taken'to prevent over.
loading of storage facilities at pri.
mary markets and seaboard terminals
cOngested by the tremendous flow Of
grain this year, stimulated by an
abundant crop and stable prices.
