Chicago Convention Like Belshazzar's Feast, Says Prohibitionist. Des Moines, June 24.—Drawing a parallel between the republican na tional convention In Chicago last week and the feasit of Belshazzar, Temporary Chairman Leady of the Prohibitionist state convention declared that the re cent gathering of Republicans In Chi cago mark€td the beginning of the downfall of the republican party. "As sure as there Is a God in heaven there is the handwriting on the wall," safd Mr. Leady. "The brewers and the G. O.'F. held a sreat political gath ering In Chicago and they drank' beer. The Taft men and the eastern dele- umuc una ai- gates and 'the allies' drank to Teddy' tiriosp, after Ml*. CWreknd has con- they drank beer and praised the gods of property, of steel and of Standard Oil." The convention proper will be held today, when it is expected that the movement for state-wide prohibition will be launched.

AT* TAFT AND FORAKER MAKE UPf As soon as the convention had nom inated Taft and Sherman the problem Involved about Mr. Foraker's campaign in behalf of the negro foldiers of the Twenty-fifth regiment became a matter of especial interest to the republican leaders and was one of the first things to receive attention. It was reoognized that unless the negro voters of Ohio should turn out and give: their full vot ing strength to the republican ticket that state might be endangered. For that reason it was Insisted upon that Mr. Foraker should go on the Stump and make at leiast one or two speeches, in which he should direct his remarks to the interest of the negro voters. When Secretary Taft's attention was directed yesterday afternoon to the re port from Washington that he would favor Foraker's re-eleotion to the sen ate, he remarked that he would prefer to say nothing at this time concerning it "Just say," he added, carefully meas uring his words, "that I decline to dis cuss that matter at this time. All that has passed between Senator Foraker and me has been published. I cannot say anything more at this time." HELIE ENOOUNTERS NEW 4NAG. English Law Forbids Immediate Wed ding of Prince and Mme. Gould. London, June 24.—Prince Helie de Sagan spent the morning visiting the registry offices in an endeavor to dis cover means by which his marriage with Mme. Anna Gould could be carried "We approve tl)«-j| out without that delay which under the .legislature to secun law of England usually accompanies such ceremonies. At all. the registry offices visited he got the same response, namely, thit the only means recognized by the law to avoid a fortnight's resi dence here before marriage is the spe cial license that can be issued only by the archbishop of Canterbury. As Mme. Gould Is divorced, it is not believed that the license can be obtained. The couple were hopeful that the wedding could take place the end of this week, but the authorities declare that this is impossible without a special license. Prince Helie is reported to have renounced Roman Catholicism in or der to marry Mme. Gould. It is de clared that after the wedding the cou ple will retire to the German estates of the prince.

Waterloo, June 24.—The republican state convention adopted a harmony platform in the convention held here today. The convention, while endors ing Senators Allison and Dolliver, also commends In no uncertain terms the state administration of Governor Cum mins. No backward step is taken and the last legislature are commended, in cluding the primary law. The platform deem lares that while the law may be found inadequate in Its present form, it shall not be amended in a manner to Bohstedt, I impair its efficiency.!! The platform follows: 4 "/:l The Deal for Mutual Aid for Presidency and 8enatorship Reported. Washington, June 24.—That Senator Foraker will go on the stump in Ohio, and make the effort of his life to car ry that state for the republican ticket is confidently believed by republicans high in the councils of their party. There have been recent conferences among inguentlal republicans on na-. tional affairs and they have tended strongly to bring about this result.

The convention passed a resolution lament ing the death of ex-President Cleve- Associated Press Predicted Progress ives Would Control Considerable Politics. (By Associated Press.) Waterloo,, June 24.—The first repub lican state convention held under the new state primary laws met here today and will seleot two candidates for su preme judges, the state central com mittee, and adopt a platform. A bitter contest is predicted between the "stand patters" and the "progressives" over resolutions commending the policies of Governor Cummins and denouncing tho Iowa delegation at Chicago in their at titude towards Cummins as "the vice presidential possibility. Much will de pend upon the make-up of the state cen trtal committee. Previous to the as sembling of the convention the pro gressives claimed control of the con vention by from sixty to eighty ma jority. Plenty of Politics. The convening of the first legalized state convention of the republicans of Iowa disclosed many vacancies among the seats of regularly elected delegates because the new law had done the work of nominating party candidates so effectively that no contests were to be decided and very little Interest was aroused In the re-nomination of judges of the supreme court who had no seri ous opposition. There was plenty of politics about the convention, however.: There was a ticket to be elected in the fall and the ever present query of one faction, how can we hold the other fellows in line for the ticket and still give them noth ing in the way of satisfaction from the results of this convention. Then there was the skirmishing and scurrying here and there on the part of the other fac tion to ascertain who had come up from the counties as delegates and whether the majority of the votes in the con vention would be progressive or other wise. Two Points in Issue. Control of the state committee and of the resolutions were the two con tests directly at issue. The progres sives were deslrlous that a majority of the committee be retained of their number, altho they were willing that the standpatters might have the chair manship since the ticket was largely theirs to elect and consequently the campaign theirs to make. In the matter of resolutions and plat form the standpatters were disposed to make overtures for peace but at the sacrifice of as little in the way of con cession ds possible, altho Major Lacey was quoted in the lobbies as having said in one of their conferences that he would like to get to fighting with Cum mins rather than against him. The progressives were not Inclined to be satisfied short of very positive com mendation of Governor Cummins by name and progressive legislation in de tail. They sought vindication of 95,000 votes and approval for seven years of magnificent republican administration and seemed perfectly willing to have the opposition assume the responsibili ty for voting down such endorsements on the eve of an election if they had the necessary votes with which to do it Liquor Issue Up. Another matter that will be promi nently before the committeee Is the question of the sale of intoxicating liquors In the state. The liquor Inter ests and the prohibitionists are repre sented on the scene. Both will en deavor to prevent anything going into the platform which may be construed as inimical to their Interests. It seems to be the plan to let well enough alone, rather than to fight for a more liberal law on the one hand or a more strin gent law on the other. Each interest would be much pleased to have the convention favor their side of the question, but from all appearances and from Information gleaned from those who are looked upon as leaders, the majority of the delegates are satis fied to remain silent on the liquor situ ation, as they do not deem it a good political move to bring it into the cam paign.^ Birdsall Out of It Congressman Blrdsall's name will not come up as a candidate for Judge of the supreme court. It has been de cided by his friends that nothing can be done toward that end at this late day. "&V PROHIBITION PLATFORM. Favors Stringent Liquor Laws and Election of President by Popular Vote. Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, June 24.—lAt the prohi bition state convention today resolu tions were adopted favoring an amend ment to the federal constitution pro hibiting sales of Liquor, and other stringent laws along prohibition lines for the popular election of president and vice president for woman's suf frage for uniform marriage and di vorce laws for a non-partisan tariff commission for arbitration between capital and labor in disputes for an amendment prohibiting polygamy making gambling on the stock market a felony, and other reforms.

But ler, a Cincinnati millionaire, Is at the point of death in a hospital at Duran go, Colo., a victim of congestion of the brain, superinduced by cheering for Roosevelt and other excitement inci dent to the recent republican national convention and the efforts to stampede it for Roosevelt.

He is owner of the Com mercial-Tribune Building, the Butler Power Building and many other val uable pieces of realty in Cincinnati. Firing Continues at Teheran.

Details of Recent Wind and Hail Storm in Northeast Iowa Get Thru S-"" 'n CROPS'RUINED OVER WIDE AREA A. 'vJi- tfik. "Vs l.s Storm Cuts Path Fifteen Miles Wide— Floods Follow Rain and Hail—Rail* road Train Swept From Tracks and Deposited in a Field—Crop Damage Estimated at $100,000. iDubuque, June 24.—Waukon, wate»' bound, with prospects of not seeing a train for two weeks, cut off from communication with the outer world, save by the wagon road that leads over the hills to Lansing, has been heard from. Late Tuesday afternoon T. J. Kelle her of that city, who is in Dubuque on business, received a letter from his brother-in-law M. H. Dougherty, who was forced to drive to Lansing to send news of the storm to the anxiously waiting Waukon man. It was the first detailed account of the terrible havoc wrought to reach this city. It is the first word, In fact to reach the outer world of the damage caused by the cyclonic wind, hall and rain storm that visited the Iowa town According to statements in the let ter, a veritable cloudburst visited Waukon, carrying away barns and sheds innumerable, drowning live stock, ruining stocks of merchandise and dry goods, and leaving the town a picture of grim disaster. Storm Broke Early. "The storm broke at 6:30 Saturday evening," writes Mr. Dougherty. "The sky, somewhat cloudy, became as dark as pitch. One couldn't see three feet In front of him. There were Intermit tent zig-zag flashes of lightning and then the thunder followed in rapid I fire succession. The rain began to fall, then hall, the Worst I have ever seen, I ensued. It beat its way thru the win dows facing: he north, It riddled cur tains, and screens proved of little ef feet once the fusllade of icy pellets hit them. \t the Allamakee house every window on the north side was beaten out and the rooms were drenched. The hall stones were phenomenal for size. One of the icy chunks meas ured eleven and one-fourth inches in circumference. Most of the stones were as large If not larger than hick ory nuts. "The storm area was enormous. At the poor farm, three miles northeast of the city, it found its extreme north eastern edge. "Among the townships hardest, hit In this vicinity are Ludlow and Jefferson. These are literally wiped out, and not a hill of corn was left after the Icy fu sillade had ended. The floods, too, abetted the hall In destroying the crops and laying waste the surrounding countryside. "At the Frank McCabe farm not a vestige of the growing corn remains, and Mr. McCabe says there Is nothing left of a promising crop." (Mr. Mc Cabe is a brother of John McCabe, of this city.) Cuts 15 Mile Swath. "The storm cut a swath about fif teen miles wide, tearing thru Rossvllle, ten miles north of this city, and Eton, a few miles to the southeast. In each of these villages it wrought great havoc. "In this city the storm played pranks the most unkindly. As the floods swept down the streets, sidewalks, cement, brick and plank, were picked up like chips and tossed playfully upon the crest of the wave. From the Hart residence to Mrs. Gulrud's millinery store, a distance of six blocks, not a trace of a walk Is left. Carried Away Train. "Probably the most remarkable thing done by the storm, a prank that may appearalmost miraculous, occurred six miles from town. The crashing waters picked up the Milwaukee train, track and all, and carried them a half mile, setting down the entire' outfit un harmed. The train Is still on the track from which the storm did not separate It. Engineer Cooley was still at the throttle when the train lit in Will Kee nan's meadow near the residence." "The railroad track is in such shape that I don't think they will get a train thru for two weeks. The washouts prevail all along the line. "One mile north of town five men had a very narrow escape from death. The men were seated In a wagon in Houseman's barn, one mile north of town, when that building was caught In the vortex of the storm." ^WARNED OF FLOOD! Towns Along the Cedar Notified to Prepare for Danger. Special to Times-Republican. Waterloo, June 24.—The following telegram was received here last night: "Austin, Minn., June 23.—To the Mayor or Sheriff of Waterloo, Iowa: The Cedar has reached the highest point ever known here. Look out for a bad flood. N. Nicholsen, Sheriff." The message is causing no end of worry to people residing along the riv er's edge. For the last twenty-four hours the river has been rising, but up until the news of the high water was received from Austin, no serious trou ble was anticipated. Whether or not the river will overflow its banks when the high water reaches here Is problemati cal. Telephonic communication with The Weather. Sun rises June 25 at 4:42 (7:35.

Special to'Times-Republican. Des Moines, June 24.—Prior to the close of the next school year the state hoard of, educational examiners hope to institute a system of inspection of the colleges of Iowa in connection with the classification and the granting of state certificates to the graduates. The last legislature provided that the board should give, state certificates to the graduates of all the Iowa colleges, the grade of the certificate to depend on the efficiency of the college. The state board has graded the various colleges according to equipment and the facili ties and the work done as nearly as is possible without a personal inspec tiorf. The bd&T'd' ^eels that such mat ters as buildings,' equipment, salaries of professors and the like are not a good basis oi*£#Hlch to Judge colleges exclusively and hence the determina tion to establish a system of inspec tion. The board last week and classi fied the institutions for the second time, the flrstS'efassiflcation having been made' last suq&ier. At the last meeting of the board ^Jt was determined that the original standards 5n which eight points as to tquipment was fixed upon will remain without alteration, but that each of thesf^polnt? must be consid ered as marking the minimum. The board hopes that no college will be. content "wlth«£ bare minimum. The colleges have in the past been classi fied according to whether they have met all or only part of these eight re quirements. The board tdday mailed to the pres ident of' ea«h of the colleges of the state a letter in which among other things 'It says: "It is the purpose of the board to institute,-the policy of thorough^Jiispectlon of colleges just as aoon as available funds will permit. It is dbnflddntly expected that this inspec tion for at ljeast a part of the colleges can- be made prior to the close of the scholastic year 1908-09. "The purpose of this inspection, pri marily, will be tp determine the qual ity of the instruction .given by the pro fessors andj the -degree of thorough ness of work done by students. It is also thought that by thorough inspec tion' the board' vHll be "the better able to know the spirit of the institutions and that in subsequently determining the classification, possible ^rrors under a. purely objective standard will be cor rected." The board is pleased with the ad vance made by the colleges of the state and believes that the work of classi fying them wiil do much for the col leges in spurring them to meet the highest requirements and get the high est classification. The state board of control is pre paring to let the contracts for the canned goods that will be eaten at the state institutions by 10,000 or more people during the next twelve months. The contract one of the largest that the state boagd has to deal with. The state board further takes nothing for granted. The\4wo pound cans of canned goods such. Jl^tomatoes and corn do not weigh two pounds at all but about one and a half pounds. The gallon cans of fruit and vegetables put up by the canning companies contain but five sixths of a gallon. When thefgubllc goes to the corner grocery store ^ind buys a two pound can of tomatofe if gets one and a half pounds andittgif tin can makes up part of that weight then. When the state board" asks fir bids on canned goods it compels, the, firms to submit sam ples of the cunned goods, two cans of each. One thL board opens and tastes and the Other is preserved. When the contract is letJthe cans purchased have to be the same as the sample, and the board pays for onl^r what it gets. Furthermore the board is not dazzled at all by the bright colored labels on the outsides of the cans. There are no bright colored labels on the cans the board buy. The contracting firms are instructed to leave off the costly labels and take that much oft the price of the canned goods, and to put on merely a llttlg: white paper label just large enough to carry the name of the goods that are in the can. Just why canning companies should make their goods short in weight and .measure is not known. A three pound can of tomatoes weighs a trifle less than two and a half pounds. Ten pound cans which are supposed to con tain a gallon weigh but seven and a half pounds. The colored people are endeavoring to arrange totflx a new date for the unveiling of the oil portrait of Fred Douglas in the historical building but there is a'probability that it may be postponed for some time till a portrait of Booker T. .Washington is secured and placed in the gallery ajso. Efforts are now being made aloirtj- that line. Col. Coalson, messenger ijrrthe gover nor's office, took charge Jbf the Fred Douglas portrait and raised the sub scriptions with which to pay for the portrait. John Thompson, editor of the Bystander, a newspaper for col ored people, may take charge of the Booker T. Washington portrait. Leonard W. HaJey, 2656 of the refor matory at Anamosa, is to be taken to Fort Madison to the penitentiary. Ha ley Is serving a term of life imprison ment for the murder of a policeman In Dubuque some ten years ago. For many years he has been In practical charge of the publication of the Prison Press, now known as the Reformjfcpry Freins at Anamosa, a weekly papenglled with news of the reformatory and with lit erary articles written by inmates. Hfley has contributed some of the best articles In the paper and In the-last is­ sue he has his farewell to Anamosa. He tries to be jocular about'leaving his friends at Apamosa but still has some regrets but speaks with some show of delight at the fact that after ten years' of confinement he will get a little fleet ing glimpse of the outside world from the car window. REDUCED IN POLK COUNTY. Captain Hull's Lead Cut Down by Ten Votes. Special to Times-Republican. Des Moines, June 24.—Judge Prouty gained ten votes by a recount of the ballots in the third precinct of the seventh and the third precinct of the Third wards yesterday afternoon. In the Third of the Seventh Captain Hull's lead was cut down by three votes and in the third of the Third it was re duced seven more. Only -three precincts in Polk county still remain in dispute. They are the second of the Fourth, where the re turns of the judges disagree, the flfth of the Third, where marks and figures were found on thirty ballots, and Bloomfield township. The board of su pervisors expects to finish the canvass as to congressman today. The recount of the third of the Third was made over strenuous pro tests of Hull representatives and Su pervisor Bachman. It was charged by the Hull people that the ballots when opened by the board of supervisors were not in the same oondition as when delivered to the auditor by the election board. All five members of the election board were placed on the stand yesterday morning, but their ac counts of how the ballots were sealed disagreed in many particulars. They all agreed, however, that the rope which was found tied around the bal lots was not placed there by them. BIOGRAPHY OF HARLAN. Will Be Published by State Historical Society in Few Months. Special to Times-Republican. Mt. Pleasant, June 24.—The state historical society at Iowa iCJty is plan ning to publish a biographical sketch of the late Senator James Harlan, within a few months. For some time, the society has been publishing at reg ular intervals, biographies of the mak ers of the state. Reviews have already appeared of the lives of such prominent flgures in the early history of Iowa as Robert Lucas, the first territorial governor of the state, Governor John Chamberlain, and Augustus C. Dodge, one of the first United States sena tors. The data for these reviews has been gathered largely under the sup ervision of Prof. B. F. Shambaugh, of the state university. During the com ing year, the work will be continued, and an assistant in the state historical society will probably corne to Mt. Pleasant and gather Information from the neighbors of Senator Harlan for one of the most comprehensive biog raphies ever1 written of Iowa's pionteer statesman and counselor of President Lincoln. wr ODD FELLOW8' CONVENTION.

Many people at first thought it was some practical joke being played upon someone, but later developments in the case bring to light a most dastardly trick, and Jefferson people are filled with wonderment as to whom the per son might be. On June 17th was cele brated the wedding of Mr. Earl Smith to Miss Flora Dennon, of Omaha, Neb, at the home of Mrs. Smith's parents.

Altho no names are given, it has been stated that the people Interested in the case are will ing to wait the time set, and unless the person brings the money back and restores it to the rightful owner, pros ecution will be brought against him, and he will be given the full extent of the law. \V/ DROWNS IN SILVER LAKE.

If one can surely turn food into good red blood it will combat any and every disease known and conquer completely more times than the disease will win. Any physician will tell you that good, rich blood and plenty of it is the best germicide known and surely and safely cures disease when medicines fail the effort of the doctor is to give food that digests and quickly "makes blood. No food ever discovered will do this as| certainly as Grape-Nuts, which is predigested at the pure food factories where it is made. One of the many illustrations is that of tuberculosis, which refuses to yield to medicine but must give way to good blood. A man from Philadelphia writes: "I have been fighting tuberculosis for,-.. some years and, with a weak stomach,^- was losing ground slowly every year.^-.^ "I had tried all kinds of food and finally got so far along with the disease that my stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels'. a re a a got to a point where it would retain no 'ij food but peptonized milk and I was down to 90 lbs. in weight. 'T "The doctors said about two years ago that I had but aJ month or two. more to live. About that time I was. put on Grape-Nuts and cream. Itps?M never showed the first sign of coming* up, but agreed from the start and in ,I',", a few days I began to feel Increased-. strength, so I kept on, with the resultv?, that the healthy blood has driven the&jggv disease from every organ of my bodys,%, except the lungs and is slowly driving It from them. "I have gained greatly in vitality and strength and added 29 lbs. to my weight. If I can keep on as I have been, It seems clear that I will get en tirely well, thanks to old Dame Nature, whose work was made possible by Grape-Nuts food which I could digest." "There's a Reason."

Waterloo, June 24.—Harmony among Iowa republicans and support of the national republican platform, was the keynote of the republican state con vention, as sounded here today in the speech of the temporary chairman, Capain William S. Hart. Mr. Hart, in assuming the chair, said: "Whatever differences, either upon the personality of our leadership or the policy of our party, may at times in flame our animosities or irritate the placidity of our councils here at home, Iowa has never failed in her enthu siastic and loyal ratification to the na tional platform and it has been our good fortune that in all matters of policy wherein there has been taught, either of uncertainty or dispute, that platform has never failed to voice the dominant sentiment of the republic ans of the state. "And I venture no uncertain state ment when I say that thruout Iowa there is a satisfaction and rejoicing, that from the first reading of the na tional platform to those who so de sired It, and the second reading, or the third at the utmost to those who wished It otherwise, it is clear that the maintenance of the protective idea is still the corner stone of republican ism. That from the platform of our party rings out the grand old battle cry of protection with all Its old-fash ioned simplicity, strength and signifi cance without one word of qualifica tion to limit or mystify its meaning, or one accent of apology for its utter ance.

".Let factionalism in republican Iowa be a thing of the past. Permit it to no longer exist except as the chapter of a history that is never opened, as a story no longer told. "If the habits of the past seven years have afflicted us with a craving for its aroma, take a whiff, at a safe distance, from the concoction prescribed for our democratic friends as a harmonizing elixir, and the appetite will no longer afflict us.

Special to Times-Republican. Jefferson, June 24.—The breaking of the dam at iStorm (Lake a few years ago, in order that the country there might not be overflowed, has proven a serious mistake in Greene county as hundreds of acres of corn are now an expanse of water, and from latest reports, the Coon river is rising until it now threatens severaJ farm houses which happen to be in the river bot tom. It is understood that the dam at Storm Lake was blown out with explosives, in order, so reports state, to let the water have a free leeway, as the dam was not sufficiently wide enough to let the water down the nat ural water course, and consequently danger was apparent, as the lakes which feed the Coon river and also •the springs, were full 'to overflowing. The Coon river here at Jefferson began to rise Saturday night and early Sunday morning it was out of its banks. Last night reports came from all parts of the county where the river flows, stating that it is now a whirl pool. madly tearing away anything which happens to come in its way, and that east of town near the Sercomb farm, it has left its regular water course, and great danger threatens the farmers near the river.

Iowa City, June 24.—With a view to making the school laws of Iowa con form with the new laws of as many other states of the union as possible, the school commission of Iowa which is composed of Professor Bolton of the university. W. H. Bailey of Des Moines, and Professor Springer of Wapello, will go to Cleveland on July 1 to confer with like commissions from Pennsylvania, Illlinols, Kansas and North Dakota. In speaking of the con ference today, Professor Bolton stated that all these states had appointed commissions to revise the school laws, and that it had been considered ad visable by the different commissions to meet together and not only profit by the exchange of ideas, but that the teaching profession would be greatly benefited by making the laws of the states as uniform as possible. "The members of the Iowa commis sion are accomplishing a great deal In the revision of the state laws," said Professor Bolton. "Each member has as soon as the summer session of the university is completed we will meet in Des Moines, in order to make a complete draft of the revision. It is possible that certain parts may con flict, and in order to prevent anything of this kind. It is possible that the commission will be busy In Des Moines for several weeks."

EASTERN OFFICE R. J. Shannon, Manager, Brunswick building. New York. N. Y.' EX-PRESIDENT CLEVELAND. With the passing away of Hon. Grover, Cleveland, the United .States loses not only one of the most con spicuous of Its recent historical figures and the only living ex-president of the United States, but a man of rare weight, courage and strength. His dissolution at this time seems almost significant in view of tihe fact that there is imminent a battle polit two parties, of one of which he was the honored leader for many years—possibly the ablest leader it ever had. Whether we may dispute ahout the comparative greatness of partisans, It has 'been agreed by men of all parties, especially since Mr. Cleveland stepped down from the of fice of president .the last time and his administrations could be reviewed with more calmness than was possible In their time, that he was a solid, sin cere, thinking executive, with strong convictions and the courage thereof. Ica] between No man of any party, in or out of of fice, was ev?r more bitterly abused thaa Stephqn^Grover Cleveland, who from his eiwiy manhood, saw fit to keep his first name In the background. What man lives today that remembers the aggravating assaults on the then, president's dajiy habits, his failure to go into the^pj^ll war. and his veto of numerous pi^jgtate pension bills, but will say thef^Hticism was as hard as could be utrajred by disgruntled peo ple? jljf.' Yet with a|#this Mr. Cleveland, who In his first campaign, against James G. Blaine in. 1884, won the election, got' a plurality of 98,017 votes against Benjamin Harrison In 1888, al£ho In the electoral college he was defeated by I a score of 2&3 to 168. This evidence of his strength In 1888 was renewed with emphasis in 1892, when he ran again against President Harrison and won by a plurality of 380,810 in the popular vote and the electors' fran chises stood.-277 to 145 in.his favor. He furnishes the only Instance In American history of a one time presi 'dent being defeated for a second term and securing apparent vindication by the result of a third contest. On his retirement from the cares of state he accepted a chair at Princeton university, which he held up to the time of .his death. Mr. Elmer Cline, of this city, a Princeton alumnus, recalls a lecture which the ex-presldent gave to the students in which Mr. Cleveland analyzed a number of the situations which enmeshed him while in office, giving his reasons for his course in the different problems. In this the students got facts which may never be known to history, ari# there will be great re gret if Mr. Cleveland did not bequeath this interesting data to posterity in his writings. Mr. Cleveland married Miss Frances Folsom, of Nftjy York, a young woman whose beauty-jand sweet dignity gave her an envied,.place in the hearts of a nation whip she graced the White House as the" .first woman of the re public. In dcinifestlc life the Clevelands seem to have found rare felicity, and at Princeton, uvhere they made their residence of late years, they were re garded with that true respect which is the sincerest tribute to the hearth. The United States has to acknowl edge its great loss In the passing of Mr. Cleveland, and national sorrow will join that of the widow and children.

It usually brings the reflection 'that such an ob server knows not of what he speaks. The average city man, whether he be •in store or office, factory or mill, or if he is a day laborer used to the most irksome kind of work with the hands anjl body, quails before the work that greets the farmer every morning. T.he farmer's day begins long before the city man's, his toil Is due before the city man's rising hour, ajid his task does not near its end until the urban ite has had his dinner (Ifs supper in the country) and Is out with his wife for a ride, is calling on a :rmighbor, or has started some other pleasant social diversion to rest his mind and carry his thoughts away from all that savors of business. It has a beautiful sound, this sen timent of "getting back to nature and tilling the soil," but It's the strenuous life with a vengeance. The people are fond of accrediting President Roose velt with rare powers of endurance in matters stremious, but w}^t of the farmer whose every day IS", full of strain? As for the farmer himself he forgets it. He's busy from sunup until sun down and after, especially in the sum mer time, and his ten minuteg to read the paper before turning in about 9 o'clock is not enough of an Indulgence to spoil him for 'the morrow. As has been pointed out in these col umns before, "the labor of ithe farm is too arduous lor the city man. Possibly that's an excellent reason why the city fellow usually lasts a mighty short time at farm work, while the boy from the fields Is a rattling success In town. Here's a bit of evidence that the farmers. In their busy times, can not get the help they want from the city ranks, even tho there are plenty of idle men who might well be em ployed at agricultural effort: Marshall. Mich., June 24.—Farmers in this part of the state are In need of farm help to assist in the harvest, haying and fruit season. But the help Is hard to get. There are prospects of a bumper crop of produce of var ious kinds this year, and a large num ber of men will be needed to help harv est it. Owing to the light forces emi ployed in the various factories the sup ply of help -ought .to be good, tout for some reason the men do not like to do farm work. There is also a dearth of women for domestic work, espec ially on farms in ihis vicinity! C^ne reason the city chap rarely gets the grasp of things In the country Is .that his chance to start Is at the most trying time. The summer Is the farm er's harvest season In every sense. It is when he gets In his heaviest licks and It is the time when he most wants to hire a man. The man from town goes out and tackles the labor, butj twelve hours wrestling with 'the plow in the hot sun. or making hay, or any other of the brawn-needing tasks, soon gives him a longing for the streets of home. As the cobbler should stick to his last the average city breds might as well make up their mind that the farm is too much for them. To their ears the call of the street is louder than the call of the pike. SOME KICKERS BRING BENEFITS "It takes all kinds of people to make a world," and a little reflection Is gen erally sufficient to convince one that the most unpromising subject of con sideration often represents a type that the world could really ill afford to spare. Everybody Is acquainted with the man who seldom has a word of ap probation for any person, Institution or idea existent In the community in which he lives. Everything ought to be different in some respect. Not a word In praise of merit, hut plenty of condemnation of defects. Such an In dividual is the neighborhood crank unpopular with all who form his ac quaintance, and often unconsciously subjected to the query: "What possi ble satisfaction can such a man de rive from existence?" Many of these chronic faultfinders, however, leave with their hearers the impression that their criticisms are well founded. That altho uttered in a tactless and disagreeable manner a desire is created in the mind of the hearer to effect an improvement where Improvement is needed, and when the change has been •acbomplished If we are fair to the "crank" we perceive the truthfulness of the old adage. On his farm several miles away from any trading point lives one of these old "kickers." A good roads movement swept over his county and some flne stretches of highway were fcuilt. No words of commendation from this man, only the complaint that the taxpayer living remote from town was not get ting his share of road improvement. Agitation of the subject followed and that neighborhood has good roads tho to those most benefited the old man is still a "crank." Examples of this kind •are everywhere apparent. Many needed reforms result from a criticism of one whose perception seems' to act only on defects to the detriment of his standing among his fellows. The acquisition of additional ideas Is not an unprofitable occupation for most of us. Give the intelligent "crank" a chance and he will furnish his Share of them.

'IIS Iowa Newspapers THE BREWERS.^, (Fremont Tribune.) The brewers in national convention have decided to enforce the laws gov erning the liquor traffic. They complain that there is great prejudice against them on the part of many persons who never see the inside of a saloon and Who consequently do not know how or derly and decently and splendidly they are run. There is some truth in this, for about the strongest opponents of the saloons are those who do not visit them. Those who do frequent the grog gerles are not the ones who could be depended upon to elevate the moral status of society. Those who do not visit' the boozeries sge enough of their product to convince them. The thousands of young men who are an nually sent direct to hell thru the sa loons are proof enough for most sane persons that the saloon Is serving no good purpose in the world. The physical wrecks, the despoiled homes, the brok en-hearted wives and mothers, the hungry and ragged children, the ruined business, the crimes caused by the sa loons are the evidence upon which modern judgment against the saloon is being pronounced. The brewers and the distillers and the liquor Interests generally have been sowing the wind. Others have been reaping the whirl wind, and now, in accord with the in scrutable laws of compensation, those who have been sowing have begun also to reap.vpi.Vf X.LcJJ STUDENTS' RIOT COSTLY.

Room for Improvement. Of an annual output of manufactures valtfed at $15,000,000,000, we export only about five per cent, and if from this amount we deduct such nearly crude manufactures as copper, petroleum and Its products, iron and steel in bars, pigs and rails, we have an Aport of the more highly finished products of only about three per cent of our total man ufactures. As has been said, America is little more than a huge stevedore bearing down to the ships of the sea crude and semi-crude materials for th3 use of foreign manufacturers. Not only this, but from the wilfulness of ignor ance or selfishness American manu facturers have been forced to build fac tories in Canadaff Our miscalled pro tection has taken employment away from American laborers and given it to Canadians, not only to supply Canadian markets but that goods formerly man ufactured in this country may now be made in Canadian factories to supply France and other foreign territories, under the reciprocal treaties of Cana da.

Ever since the ex preatdent retired to the classic shades of Princeton his distinction has widened as a man. as a personage, one might say as a "character" in the best sense of that term when It needs quotation marks to qualify its mean -.vy* Affectioaately Known as Grover. Early in life Mr. Cleveland discarded bis first'name, Stephen. Therefore he nd of Rotable Career of Forceful American Citizen Who Won Success Alter Serving Twice as President He Became the Most Dis tinguished Private Citizen in the By ROBERTUS I-OVE. HE most distinguished private citizen in the world," said a celebrated Republican ex-sena tor. introducing Grover Cleve­ land at the dedication ceremonies of the St. Louis world's fair in 1903. Nobody disputed the characteriza tion. Mr. Cleveland had spent two full terms In the White House, divided by an Interim of private citizenship, and he had survived his retirement for years. He was not like an ordinary ex-president, who retires from one term or from two terms served con secatlvely. This man had suffered de feat after victory aod had won vic tory after defeat That record Is tmfeque In our history. It added to that high distinction which Inheres in any man who has held the greatest elec tive ofllce In the gift of the world's nations. It made him indisputably the most distinguished private citizen in the world.1 mm World Dignified, He Was Not Devoid ol Humor* GROVER CLEVELAND. could not be called Steve by the people of the United States. But as the one great national character of his day he became respectfully and affectionately known as Grover. Everybody was In terested In knowing what Grover. was doing at his Princeton home. When Grover went fishing, everybody wanted to know how many he caught and if they were cats, suckers or flounders. When Grover went duck hunting, everybody waited eagerly to learn how many he bagged. Even the simple story of the self preservation frog was highly diverting to the great public. This frog Mr. Cleveland was using for bait He had not had a bite for an hour. Finally he happened to glance down at his feet, and there on a rock sat little Mr. Frog, with the book in bis skin, enjoying life In the open air. Counting, at any rate, from the time when he first became president, Mr. Cleveland never evinced any of the personal magnetism qualities which are calculated to make people tbink of him by bis first name, much less to "Ted dyize" it Mr. Cleveland was always a dignified person. More than that, he was essentially austere and ponderous. Of course be may have been quite oth erwise when he went fishing. The statement refers to bis public appear ances. He gave the impression of be ing a mountainous mass of mind, mov ing slowly, but surely, toward Its ulti mate goal, and when he reached the goal be stayed there and went into camp. He did not get there by jumps or jerks, by impulsive catching, at con clusions. but by the laborious method of feeling his way and treadtag care fully, though perhaps not softly. Presi dent Cleveland was a big thinking ma chine in constant operation, but so well oiled that he made no unnecessary Bttlse. He took his work so seriously and found it so exacting that no time was left him for the lighter side of tlUagB, even if be had had the inclina- 7,000 TRAVELING MEN MEET National Protective Association in Ses sion at Milwaukee. Milwaukee,•Wis., June 23.—Fully 7, 000 members of the Travelers' Protec tive Association of America are in the city to attend the nineteenth national —Always tion. Yet he was not always devoid of humor. -At a White House reception some how a seedy looking tramp got In line. He was immediately behind ?ne Dr. Lucky, who was introduced to the pres ident Nobody was acquainted with the tramp. Both life and Mr. Cleveland seemed embarrassed for the moment, but the president rose to the occasion. Releasing tlie hand of Dr. Lucky, he grasped thai: of the tramp and said cor dially: "And you, I suppose, are Dr. Un lucky." Menaces to Congress Penned by Himself. It is said that all the presidents to gether up to Mr. Cleveland's time did not leave so many state papers in their own handwriting as did' this hard worker* Mr. Cleveland insisted qpon attending personally to many affairs which other presidents turned over to their secretaries. His mind worked best through his arm and big finger tips. His messages to congress he wrote with his own hand, as, in fact, all his important state papers. Thus nobody could charge him with being a dictator. President Cleveland's severe concep tion of dignity was Indicated by his quarrel with Colonel Henry Watterson, the famous Kentucky editor. Once the president was too busy to go to the theater when young Mrs. Cleveland expressed a desire to hear Clara Mor- 1 rls. Colonel Wattersion happened to be at the White Housp, The president requested him to escort Mrs. Cleve land, which the galflant Kentuckian was happy to do. Between the acts Mrs. Cleveland sudaenly announced that she desired very much to have a chat with the noted ^ctress. The colo nel arranged for her jto visit Miss Mor ris In the lattlr's dressing room. De lighted' with her experience, Mrs. Cleve land enthusiastically, told her husband about it as soon as' the colonel took her home. The president turned to Colonel Wat terson and somewhat angrily,/reproach ed him for permitting the first lady of the land to visit an actress iq her dress ing room instead of having the actress call at the box. He bad trusted to the colonel's age and discretion, be said, to protect Mrs. Cleveland from yielding to a "schoolgirl /fancy" so un dignified. Grover Cleveland wasi the first Dem ocratic mayor of Buffalo and the first Democratic governor of New York since the civil war. Then he became the first and only Democrat elected to the presidency ejnee James Buch anan, who defeated. John C. Fremont, the first Republican/candidate, in 1856. These facts enhancB his distinction. Helped! Fanny Crosby With Her Hymns. From his boyhood Mr. Cleveland manifested those tfraits of iron courage which may be termed self confidence, so characteristic of his official career. Young Grover's first job away from, home was a clerkship in a school for the blind. Fanny Crosby, the noted hymn writer, herself blind, was teacher there. Young Cleveland us/ to assist her by taking down fcer poems in hand/writing. The principal of the school upbraided Miss Cirosby for utilizing Grover in that way. Gro ver heard of it. "Look here," he said to the blind singer, "yon have a perfect right to convention, which was opened with an address of welcome by Mnyor Rose. The president's report shfq'ws a total membership of 40,000 to^'60,000 com mercial traveling men And business men.

Miss Crosby boldly stood up for her rights after that, and the principal meekly submitted, while the young amanuensis continued the penmanship practice which enabled him later along In life to write presidential messages legibly. Mr. Cleveland made bis own way in the world. His father, a Presbyterian minister, died when Grover was six teen. The boy after his brief experi ence in the school for the blind started for Cleveland, O. It is said that the name of that city was its chief attrac tion for him. But be visited an uncle in Buffalo on his way west and was induced to remain in that city. Gro vel's mother when he left home gave him a little Bible. Daniel Lamont, who was private secretary to Governor Cleveland and later a member of Pres ident Cleveland's cabinet, told a high ly interesting story of this Bible. "I first saw It," said Mr. Lamont, "on a table In Cleveland's law office in Buffalo. When Mr. Cleveland became governor the little Bible was generally to be seen on the bureau in his bed room in Albany. Just before his inau guration as president I found the book in his rooms at the Arlington hotel, Washington, and I carried It to Chief Justice Walte, requesting him to use it when he swore the new chief mag istrate Into office." About 40,000 witnesses saw Grover Cleveland press his mother's gift to his lips on that memorable occasion. Later the little Bible lay on Mr. Cleveland's writing table la his library at Princeton. On the outside cover is inscribed in gilt letters the name "S. G. Cleveland," and on the fly leaf in Ids mother's handwriting are the words, "My son, Stepheu Grover Cleveland, from his loving mother." $Zi'& Display of Self Confidence. The late Senator lngalls, himself a brilliant orator, once confessed that he was stricken dumb with wonderment by Mr. Cleveland's display of self con fidence at bis first Inauguration. With 40,000 people in hearing and 70,000,000 waiting to read the words he was about to utter, this man, altogether new to Washington and to the national arena, stood forth to deliver bis •in augural address offhand. He held in the palm of bis left band a scrap of visiting card on which be had noted fhe merest catchwords of his address. The sight of this scrap of card caused Senator lngalls to say: "Suppose his memory had failed him. Such things happen to speakers skilled by a lifetime of experience, and why aot to Cleveland, a novice in the art? Yet he stood there, with all the confi dence of a prophet of old, and without manuscript spoke for an hour to 70, 000,000 people!" This courage, this self confidence, characterized his entire career as pres ident He seemed always prepared. He had loaded bis gun beforehand, and when he got ready to fire be fired. During his first term he vetoed 413 bills. This unprecedented exercise of the veto power astounded' congress and caused the people to sit up and take notice. No adverse criticism swerved him. Among the bills vetoed were 297 private pensions. Cleveland, who help ed to support his mother during the war on a meager salary as assistant prosecutor In Buffalo, had hired a sub stitute when be was drafted into the army. This was brought up against him by Indignant Grand Army men. but he believed that the pension bills he was vetoing were improper under the laws, and be ignored the Insinua tions. Mr. Cleveland devoted his entire con gressional message In 1887 to the tar iff. He characterized the then existing tariff laws as "vicious, inequitable and illogical." His bold stand for a reduc tion of duties contributed largely to his defeat for re-election the next year, though he received a majority of the popular vote. It was in his second term that Mr. Cleveland's policy or principle of standing pat with his own convictions 3piit his party wide open and made him millions of political enemies. He was unalterably in favor of the gold standard. In the summer of 1893 he ^called a special session of congress to repeal the Sherman act requiring the government to make large purchases of silver bullion. Succeeding chapters in the monetary struggle are of such recent history that it is unnecessary to mention them. Perhaps the one act of President Cleveland which aroused the deepest Indignation in some quarters and evoked the highest commendation from other quarters was the sending of fed eral troops to Chicago during the great railroad strike of 1894 "to prevent ob struction of United States mails" against the protest of Governor Alt geld of Illinois, who held that his state forces were adequate to cope with the situation: Made Him a National Hero. His vigorous assertion of the Monroe doctrine in the Venezuelan boundary case, even to the extent of inviting war \?ith Great Britain, swept away partisan prejudices for the time and made President Cleveland a national hero. "A public office Is a public trust," in «even words, is Mr. Cleveland's noblest literary creation. Time softena even political asperi ties. It is yet too early for unbiased 'history to be written around the Cleve land administrations, but one may venture the prediction that, when the scroll of history is made up, on the list of the greater American presidents will be the name of Grover Cleveland, "the most distinguished private cit izen In the world" for many years to ward the end of the nineteenth and at thq beginning of the twentieth cen tury While the association is avowedly friendly with the railroads, President Johnson in his address contended for a mileage booK for the traveling men which would be universally inter changeable, at a rate which Is a con cession. be'.ow the rate accorded the general public, £-35^" f*' *3. Run Red Streets of Teheran With Blood and Women and Babes Are Slain KILL, MUTILATE AND PILLAGE Troops and Populace Clash and Streets Are 'Full of Dead—Parliament Meets Shah's Demand With Bombs and Bombardment Follows Bomb Thrown at Soldiers. Teheran, June 24.—With hundreds dead and as many injured, and the square in front of Parliament house heaped with the bodies of the slain, Teheran last night presented a ghastly spectacle, as the result of the bloodiest massacre known to local history. iMen, women and children were vic tims of the carnage, which resulted from orders from the shah to parlia ment to turn over persons he wanted arrested. Troops and citizens, losing all rea son, fought like wild beasts. Children were shown no mercy, and aged women are included in the list ojt the butch •i 1" wed. 4 Limbs were chopped from the dying, eyes of the wounded were punched out, and tongues and noses cut off, a? the riot of blood-mad hate gained in fury. Cossacks and soldiers early in the morning surrounded the house of par liament and demanded a number of persons, whose arrest the shah had or­ -m :"S .-A: V-/' 'tSur. wmM is 3-- t,fi -J A r,L ,-S. r.P kjf"• ttlf lyf S S J* 5and dered, be forthwith handed over to them. Bomb Thrown at 8oldlera. Parliament refused to comply with this demand, and shots were fired at the troops, several soldiers being killed. Orders were at once issued from mili tary headquarters that the parliament building be bombarded, and the bom bardment commenced soon after 10 o'clock. While this was in progress bombs were thrown from the parliament building and the mosque adjoining, dis abling one of the guns and wounding the grunners. Eventually the halls of parliament were cleared, but not before a great many persons had been killed and wounded. The bombardment contin ued until 3 o'clock In the afternoon, when it suddenly ceased. In the meantime the troops pillaged the political clubs in that neighborhood and numerous residences of influential members of parliament, In which work they were aided by the populace. The parliament buildings are in ruins. The firing was confined to Par liament square. Large numbers of leading nationalists, including priests and members of parliament, have been arrested. Leaders of the reactionary party gave aid to the troops and spurred them on to further killing. Waving the clothing of the dead, they shouted vengeance and cheered each round of fatal firing. The troops did not discriminate be tween armed revolutionists and un armed onlookers, but shot anybody without check. They also acted with savage cruelty In torturing Xhelr vic tims. Eighteen Condemned Cut to Pieces. Eighteen reform leaders were arrest ed and taken in ohalns before the shah, who ordered their summary ex ecution. Before they could be shot the mob seized them and .they were liter ally cut to pieces with sabers and dag gers.

Yet, with all this advance, we've not raised the price to you. Vu 1 1 There is a reason when a dish like this springs into such demand. And* that reason applies to yon.

For two years, ever since a ^constl tutional government was proclaimed by the shah, Persia* has been, in the throes of a revolution, general in character, and including within its scope the in habitants of, cities. The shah reluctantly proclaimed the constitution, and has cast his lot with the reactionaries, who are opposed to it becaiise they hold it is contrary to their Interests. The other party, the constitution alists, has been fighting to maintain its rights as guaranteed by the constitu tion. During a few years of warfare between thirty and forty thousand lives have been sacrificed. frc. Killed Number Only Forty.

We are baking such beans that you eat them more often—eat them in place of meat. And beans are Nature's choicest food. They are 84% nutriment. They give you more food value than meat, pound for pound, and they cost but a fraction as much. And there is nothing that people like better than beans, when baked in the Van Camp way.

(Special Washington Correspondence.) Washington, June 24.—Secretary Taft, having been made the republican nominee for president, many of his friends have now begun to make his cabinet. The work of cabinet-making will be kept up indefinitely and it will possess almost an Infinite variety. It will.go on in rather vague fashion un til the November elections, and, if Mr. Taft is elected, it will become more specific from that time forward until the inauguration. close friends, but when Mr. Wilson has served to the end of the Roosev administration he will have a longer cabinet career than any other official has had since the republic was found ed, and it is possible he may want to retire. Whether James R. Garfield will b3 retained as head of the interior de partment is a matter about which there is much difference of opinion. It Is generally expected that postmaster General Meyer wlll be retained in the Taft cabinet and that he will be -sec retary of the treasury. New Order Is Reported It seems probable it will rest largely with Mr. Burton himself whether he becomes head of the state department if Mr. Taft becomes president. No one quesVlons"the~eminent* Burton for the place. He measures up to it fully in bnains and character, and in the ability to command that re spect that it is essential the head of the state department should com mand. It may be that .Mr. Burton's friends in Ohio wifll send him to the senate to succeed Senator Foraker, al tho this is hardly expected. If he Is not sent to the senate, it is the ex pectation here he will be as)ced to take the state portfolio. Consideration of the treasury de partment brings up- the interesting question of the future of Secretary George B. Cortelyoiu. Mr. Cortelyou was generally credited with an ambi tion to be vice president, but this did not materialize. The chief reason why the movement for Mr. Cortelyou gained no impetus was thai'. Secretary Taft did not want Mr. Cortelyou to have second place. It was the feeling of Mr. Taft that both m\embers of the ticket should not be picked from the cabinet. Under such circumstances, the probabilities are against the re tention of Mr. Cortelyou in the cabinet, and no one in Washington would be ssj! 160 It Is generally taken for granted that if Mr. Taft becomds president he will'with every phase of Philippine, Cuban choose practically a new cabinet to and Panama matters and is competent surround him and advise with him. for the task. One objection that will Secretary of State Root no doubt tJO raised to General Edwards is that would gladly be retained by Mr. Taft he is an army officer but his friends as head of the state department, but it is not believed Mr. Root wants to stui Other cabinet members who are looked on as likely to give up their po sitions are Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou, Attorney General Bonaparte, Secretary of the Navy Metcalf, Secre tary Straus of the departmment of commerce and labor, aaid Secretary of War Luke E. Wright. So far as Sec retary James Wilson, of the depart ment of agriculture, is concerned, it will probably rest with himself wheth er he remains. He and Mr. Taft are The following is a slate for the Taft cabinet that many of the wisest of the seers and prophets believe will go thru: Secretary of sitate, Repre sentative Theodore E. Burton, of Ohio Secretary of the treasury, Postmaster General George von L. Meyer attorney general, Frank B. Kellogg, of Minne sota secretary of war, Charges E, Ma goon, of Nebraska, or -General Clar cnce R. Edwards, now chief of the bu reau 0? insular affairs postmaster general, Frapk H. Hitchcock, who has been manager of the Washington headquarters 'in the Taft campaign secretary of the navy, Truman H. Newberry, of' Michigan, now assistant secretary of the navy, or Robert Bacon, of New York, now assistant secretary of state secretary of the interior, At torney General Wade Ellis, of Ohio., or Secretary Garfield secretary of agri culture, James Wilson, of Iowa, or Clif ford Pinchot, now chief of the buroau of forestry secretary of commerce aJid labor, William Loeb, of New York, now private secretary to President Roose velt. Real Estate For Sale or Exchange ISSSi8 fL surprised to hear any day that Mr. Cortelyou had stepped from the treas ury to a high place In the world of business. Postmaster General Meyer, of Massachusetts, is looked on as the man most likely to follow 'Mr. Cortel you in the treasury, whether the se lection be by Taft or Roosevelt. Mr. Meyer has the confidence both of the president and of Mr. Taft. He has shown high business capacity in the conduct of the postoffice department and a disposition to be progressive in the management of that department. He Is freely consulted by the White House on matt&rs of the utmost im portance, both business and political. Mr. Meyer was an ardent Taft man in the pre-convention campaign, and he is credited with an ambition to be the head some day of the treasury depart ment. Will Wright Remain? Much gossip Is afloat that General Luke E. Wright of Tennessee, the new secretary of war, will remain in this post if Taft is elected. This is to be taken with a grain of salt. General Wright is a man of ability but there are substantial reasons why his in definite retention by Mr. Taft does not appear probable. Charles E. Magoon, provisional governor of Cuba, is the man whose selection is probable. He is familiar with all insular matters, with the Philippines, with Porto Rico, with Cuba and he has a close ac quaintance with the war department. Another man who would undoubtedly fill the position admirably is Brigadier General Clarence R. Edwards, chief of the bureau of Insular affairs. Gen eral Edwards is Intimately acquainted answer this by saying that there is precedent for putting an army man at the head of the war department. Under any circumstances. General Edwards will be given a high place in Secretary Taft's councils. It is doubtful if there is any man in Washington more inti mate with Secretary Taft than he. Frank B. Kellogg, it is conceded, has earned a place at the Taft cabinet board, both by his work as "trust buster" for the government and by his activity for Mr. Taft's nomination. It is expected that Mr. Hitchcock will be {,le next postmaster department. general regardless of whether he is national chairman and manager of the Taft pre-election cam paign. Assistants Have Ambitions. Two men now assistant secretaries are said to aspire to head th6 navy de partment. Mr. Metcalf will not be re tained. One of the aspirants is Assist ant Secretary of the Navy Newberry, and the other Is Assistant Secretary of State Robert Bacon. Both men' are competent for the place. Mr. New berry, however, is the more familiar with navy matters. Much of the time now, he Is the real head of the navy He is a man of energy and ability, with wide business exper ience. Newberry is one of the great workers of the cabinet. He compares favorably with Taft himself in his ca pacity to dispatch important and bur densome business. Moreover, he has the nerve to run the navy department and this cannot be said of some of the men who have headed it In recent years. Mr. Bacon is also a trained business man and is a lawyer. He has had invaluable experience under Sec retary Root He is mentioned as pos sible head of the state department un der the Taft administration if Burton Is not selected, as, it may be added, are a number of others. Senator Henry Ca bot Lodge of Massachusetts is always mentioned when there is a state de partmcnt change in sight. Dr. David Jayne Hill, ambassador to Germany, is also mentioneii. The activity of Attorney General Wade Ellis of Ohio in the pre-conven tion campaign has led many to believe he will get a cabinet place. The posi tion of secretary of the Interior has been suggested, altho It Is quite possi ble Mr. Taft". will see fit to retain Sec- fitnpss of Mr. retary Garfield.
