In the matter of selecting delegates
to the Methodist convention, the
method is worthy Of the study of
practical men. Nobody was avail
able to be. a delegate who had not
been in the organization for five
years in good standing.-Des Moines
Register.
Thus speaketh the Des Moines
paper in the coarse of a long editorial
commencing the Methodist way and
criticising the republican methods.
Does the Register seriously want the
republican party to adopt plan Of
selecting delegates that would for
ever bar it's editor from being a dele
gate to republican convention.

that the detectives chief object in

Speech Nearing Completion.

pS ASSVSldtSu TTeSS.
Dayton, July BIN addition to
the league of nations. the American
industrial problem and other domes-
tic questions are to have prominent
place in the address of Governor Cox
accepting the presidential nomina-
tion. according to information here
today from those in close touch with
the Cox campaign.
It is said that a large portion of
the address might be expected to deal
with industrial affairs with view to
bringing capital and labor closer to-
gether. Those who have talked with
the governor said this is one OF his
most serious concerns, and they be-
lieved he would give his views at
length.
The governor today bent all efforts
towards completing the acceptance
address. which he expects to have
printed this afternoon for mailing to-
night to the nations press.
So engrossed was the governor in
completing his address that he
offered no comment last night on the
statement Of Senator Harding. his
republican opponent, charging that
powerful international interests fav-
oring the league Of nations were be-
hind the democratic financing and
that the democrats would seek to
minimize the league issues. There
was doubt whether the governor
would reply before delivery OF his
acceptance address as he has said
he then would answer anything. he
deemed essential.

Ames. July 31.-Ways and means
of relieving the freight car shortage
and reports on rates and conditions
were considered today at q confer
ence of the executive committee of
the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation
and Governor Harding.
Suggestions were made that grain
and other products OF the farmers in
Iowa be consigned to Chicago, then
shipped by water to Buffalo and
from there distributed to the eastern
markets. Governor Harding and q
H. Cunningham. secretary of the
farm bureau, both have expressed
themselves ;Ls believing water ship
ments will tend to cause more cars
to be returned from the eastern
terminals tc' midwestern shipping
points and also relieve the rail sit

Another suggestion, made at the
conference, was, that Iowa farmers

mission to euualize the water freight

fs.lo. The present rate favors the
