Chi- ton Railroad A Grab For the Gavel. Drs Moises, Ta., Nov. 25.—[Special to the Bee.]—The lively topie in Towa political cir- cles just now is the speakership of the com- ing general assembly. The democrats are not taking a consuming interest in the sub- ject, which is not so strange in view of the fact that they can’t come within forty-si votes of being allowed any n the mat ter. But the republicans are having a good- natured rivalry among themselves, and can- didates are numerous and frisky. The northern part of the state is likely to have a number of candidates, There is Hon. G. L Dobson of Bucna Vista, who was a member two years ago, and is being urged by friends in his section. W. Wilbur of Floyd county, another re ed member, is another candidate from the north, while Hon. Albert Head of Greene county, who was speaker of the last general asscmbly, is a candidate with an “if."" If he can get the caucus nomination without a protracted struggle he sayshe is a aindidate. But he says he will not make any fight for the place if it is tikely to result in a Dbitter contest, leaving factional dissensions and unpleasantness to follow. Herein he shows good sense, and will make friends by his attitude. Here in Polk county Mr. Berryhill, also & reelected member, is said to be deliberating, mot quite certain whether he would prefer to sit on the rostrum or be leader of the house on the floor. He is quick in decision, alert and active in watching legislation, and a hard worker, so that if chosen he will have strong qualifications for the place. But this doesn’t begin to exhaust the list. Mills county pre- seuts Colonel Chantry as an available and desirable candidate. Cass county .offers Silas Wilson as an anti-monopoly candidate and experienced legislator. Louisa county offers in Hou. L. A, Riley one of the best men who has yet been mentioned. He is a level-headed conservative man, of judicial poise, yet active ~temperament, and s strongly commended for the place. So that without any other candidates—and there may be several yet—the field is full alveady, and a lively contest is assured. A RAILROAD CAR FAMINE, The latest famine that is afllicting portions of Towa is a dearth of cars to move the products to market. This i - east, f the will that eave The Milwaukee & St ional then m; west, y for rang- v 100 pro- nd as Mis- wht ting, For which the owners wanted to ship out, but couldn’t find the cars. The railroad com: panies for some reason scemed to_be unable to meet the demand. This special noed of cars was only at one little place. Thero are wany thousunds of tons of hay ail through that part of the stato which the owncrs would like to turn into cash, if they could only get it to market. Hay there is bringing £ and £7 a ton delivered on the cars. CHECKING INSURANCE PRAUDS, There has been some little comment by those not_familiar with the case, that the state auditor should take summary’ action in revoking the certificates that permitted the form hety pr t N al but he stated to your correspondent that the and | course Lie took was based upon information and | furnished by the insurance commissioner of non- | Connecticut.

The Iowa authori ties are doing all they can to protect the p ple against insurance frauds. EVERY VOTE COUNT The result of the late Towa clections teaches one thing very plainly, and that is the import- ance of every individual vote, In the sena- torial district, composed of Warren and Clarke counties, the successful candidate is elected by two majority. In another district another candidate for senator was beaten by but 8ix votes; one or two_other winning can- didates have majorities of th or four ve The number of close votes in legislative dis tricts this year was surprisingly large. result must make the stay-at-home fric the defeated candidates feel v Such results—better than all the appeals that can be_made—show practically the import- ance of getting out every vote and the value at critical times of even one vote.
