Des Moines Daily Leader (Newspaper) - March 25, 1902, Des Moines, Iowa THE MOINES DAILY LEADER FIFTY-FOURTH YEAR NO 72 DES MOINES IOWA TUESDAY MORNING MARCH 25 1902 PRICE THREE HENDERSON HAS CONTEST OPPOSITION FOR FIRST TIME IN TWO DECADES MAJ LACEY ALSO HAS TROUBLE George W Seevers Said to Be a Candidate Senator O B in the yield the Solid Support of Black Bawk Dissatisfaction In District With Henderson's Attitude other middle and western counties urged him so strongly that he yielded Having become a candidate he de- clares he is In the fight to stay IN THE SIXTH GOEBEL LAW DENOUNCED With tlie apparently solid backing ot the greatest republican county in the with to the support of middle and counties all of them Hon O B Courtright of jio was yesterday put forward as a for congress in the Third dis- tuct against David B Henderson of the national house For the first time In twenty years the district will present two dates in its republican congressional convention When Colonel Henderson climbing up the lower rounds of ladder of national he always given the right of way by the republicans of hfe district For years he has been nominated end renominated without opposition Xot till he has become speaker of the house and one of the three or four most influential factors in shaping tional legislation has the Dubuque man even encountered opposition in his own rany In bringing Senator Courtright for- the Waterloo Courier sets forth that the speaker has got out of line the sentiment of his party He is longer considered representative of the sentiment of his people at home The middle and western counties of the district have long been known to constitute a hotbed of insurgency the speaker The revolt is no patty uprising of disappointed candidates It does not represent the ambitions of aspiring politicians who to try a turn in congress It resents a protest so its leaders insist against the misrepresentation of Iowa opinion in one of the places in the national government A Situation Among politicians who last evening of the fact that Senator right had been formally announced at Waterloo there was much comment on situation in the Third Nothing like it has ever known in Iowa is doubtful if anything like it has known in the nation If reports from the Third district in recent weeks are at ail reliable there is prospect of a close and hard fight The insurgent element has long been seeking a leader It claims that in Hardin Wright ler and Franklin counties there is the game disposition as in Black Hawk that Bremer though the home of some of the strongest Henderson men in the district is by no means safely for him that the eastern counties Delaware Buchanan and Dubuque while ered likely to go for Henderson are seriously affected toy the same ment that is so strong in the western end of the district The announcement of such a de- termined opposition to Colonel son at home will of course a topic of national interest It will bs pointed 10 as evidence of the real opinion of Iowa on the tariff issue It is en this that the speaker haa got roost at odds Man Will Op- JLacey The Sixth district too is expected to join the ranks of republican gency It is believed that candidates for congress against Lacey will begin to present themselves very soon It was reported yesterday that Hon N E Kendall of Monroe county who has for some time been regarded as a certain candidate for congress against Major Lacey was out of the race This however was explained to mean not that Lacey is to have less opposition but that the opposition is likely to center on George W Seevers of loosa Mr Kendall when asked about his own matters admitted that he had told friends he wag out of the race He said he did not feel that he could ford at this time to make the contest preferring to return to his law practice at Albia Senator Fred L Maytag of Jasper county Captain J W Carr of shiek county H X man of and George W Seevers of Oskaloosa are now regarded ae the men most likely to enter the lists against Lacey Mr Seevers will have the hardest fight of all for he lives in the same county the same city the same ward as Lacey Lacey has always been rated strong at home But this year he is weakened like Colonel Henderson by the disposition to criticise the general policy of the Iowa delegation in national matters Monroe county the home of Kendall will not be trans- ferred to the Lacey column by the withdrawal of Mr Kendall On the other hand it is regarded as one of the most reliably insurgent counties whether it shall have a candidate or not Mr Kendall is very strong but it is declared that his strength is not necessary to carry Monroe county against Lacey Senator Maytag was last fall elected senator in Jasper county He is a young man only 44 years old and is reputed to be one of the wealthiest members of the upper house He is one of the owners of the Band Cutter and Self Feeder company of Newton which conducts a great manufacturing plant BITTER SPf MAN BOf OF OF KENTUCKY WM the Fubl i Machinery of an at tUo U atie Organization March Mr Boreing of Kentucky injected an attack on the Goebel election law into the sion of the contested tion case from the Third district of Kentucky which again occupied the at- tention of the house today but Mr Rhea declined to be drawn into an ex- lines of fairness and was entirely just to all interested personally He said the evidence showed the bulk of the oleomargarine reaches the consumer as pure butter One of the objects of the was to prevent this deception and to insure the detection of any frauds at- tempted on the consumers of butter He concluded with the observation that the pending was a measure to protect an honest product against a fraud A few bills of minor importance were passed before the oleomargarine was taken up HEPBURN REPORTED It If Intended to Prevent Adulteration and Imitation of Washington March house committee on interstate and foreign EARNEST HARMONY PLEA WATTERSON TO VIRGINIA CRATIC ASSOCIATION Republican Party of Arbitrary Power veil a Man oa The Washington March ISO guests were tonight at the bi- banquet the Virginia cratic association held in the banquet room of the Metropolitan hotel They included democrats of national and most of the political leaders and democratic members congress from tha old dominion Col Robert N IF I CATCH THOSE FELLOWS THEY'LL HAVE TO MAKE SOME SPEECHES FOR and has built up one of the largest in- in central He is a ness man with no especial desire for a political career But his election in Jasper county last fall by majority attracted attention to him and he has been in constant demand ever since as a candidate Former Senator Waterman is widely known because of the leading part he took as a of the legislature He is one of the strongest men in the Sixth and has for several years been credited with some ambition to go to congress Mr Seevers is one of the best known lawyers in Iowa He is now general solicitor of the Central of -Iowa railroad He has not been in sympathy with the Lacey regime in the Sixth district for some years Last year he made a fight for Cummins in Mahaska county against the Lacey influence He won the honors of the occasion and since then has been much considered by those who are looking for a candidate for congress It is generally believed that the solution is likely to ba an agreement among the insurgents to take up his candidacy and push it At any rate it is likely the Sixth will be having lively times in the near future IN THE RACE Announced as Candidate with his -is un- doubtedly overwhelmingly in favor of tariff revision the speaker has not yielded to that year the state republican platform contained a declaration for tariff modification ernor Cummins declared strongly tur it brfore and after his election The Iowa delegation in congress has not sented this opinion in its actions and the fights against Henderson Hull and Lacey are in a large way the result of this feeling that the spokesmen of Iowa at Washington do not speak the real opinion of the state Black Hawk Is Solid Senator Courtright is little known as a factor in Iowa politics though he is well and favorably known in his home district and in his first session in the state senate where he is now serving if making a strong record The fight against in Black Hawk has been a popular one The two daily pers there the Reporter and the ier both strongly republican have 1 liken equally a prominent part in it The Parrott influence represented by th Reporter has taken perhaps even a more part and presumably rst it should look like a Parrott fight I was determined to have the other announce the candidacy of tor Courtright It will have the en- both papers and if reports are correct the backing of the undivided community Senator Courtright is a lawyer a strong speaker a republican Ha came to the front in the state ate almost from the beginning He has taken leading part in debates proving himself one of the strongest practical legislators the body has contained in years He is a student a constructive legislator He knows his law and when he rises to speak on a question of la w he always has a careful hearing and generally carries his It is This faculty of knowing his subject and knowing how to state it most forcefully that has made him in a shorter time than most men require to get accustomed to the routine of lation a leader of the senate He is very commonly picked to be the leader of the next senate The effect of the Courtright dacy as it will he felt in national will hardly be overestimated at this juncture It will doubtless mean more opposition at Washington to nel Henderson's re-election as speaker It will call attention as nothing else could do to the determined western sentiment against domination by ern ideas on economic questions of which the tariff is the chief It will be pointed to from all directions as dence of the coming storm of tariff test it the national republican party shall not yield to the feeling in the Henderson Mon Wofc Worried The Third district movement against Speaker Henderson has been a long time organizing To find the right man is candidate was the first serious problem Various conferences have been held at Des Moines and at by Third district men in the effort tn set together Senator Courtright is weak in not having a wide ance as a public man He never held a public office of any sort until he was elected last November to state senate But lie is a good speaker is strong at home and sents the strongest biggest and most insurgent republican county in the dis- It was considered either that there must be a long list of favorite son representing all the counties in the district or else that Black Hawk must bring forward a man Whether there will be more candidates later is not known ft is however that Senator Courtright likely to have the field to himself did not to be out at

advancement to places on important committees then to the acknowledged leadership in the house and then to the speakership of the greatest legislative body in the world The republicans who by an- nouncing Senator Courtright today de- clare their opposition to Speaker derson say they have followed the con- gressman with pride through all the successive advancements that they have for him year after year have worked for him and have given of their means to forward his ambitions They say they have done this without hope of reward and that they have ways dwelt with satisfaction on success until recently Now they hold he is no longer in accord with his constituents They declare he has written which plainly indicate he does not agree with the sentiment of the great majority of the republican party of the district One of these letters they assert was ten to Waterloo in response to a tion from the business men of this city and Cedar Falls asking Speaker derson to use his influence for the modification of tariff schedule on steel The speaker's reply to this letter they declare placed him in a position directly opposed to the great west Then they note his letter to Mr Funk of Iowa Falls in which it is held the speaker put himself on record as op- posed to Cuban reciprocity a thing all the republicans of this district favored But these republicans acknowledge that Mr Henderson is now in line on Cuba and that he was really the leader of the fight which has made the proposed 20 per cent reduction on the Cuban sugar tariff possible They say however in explanation of this that the speaker was driven into line by the ing sentiment of the country contrary to his first position Again these re- publicans put forth the claim that the west end of the congressional district composed throughout of republican counties is entitled to recognition that Dubuque the only democratic county in the district having had that honor for twenty years should be satisfied These are the reasons given today by leading republicans of Waterloo who have been instrumental in securing Senator consent to become a candidate before the republican con- gressional convention They will urge them in the different counties of the district and declare they have hope that the people will sustain them in their cUims Senator who it a member of the Plate senate now serving his first term the district composed of Grundy and Hawk counties has been at hie home here in on Page 2 tended debate on an issue not directly involved In the case He contented himself paying his respects to Mr Boreing charging the latter with ignorance of the law of his own state Mr Rhea made a strong presentation of his side of the case but had not concluded when the house adjourned The vote will be taken about 2 o'clock tomorrow The other speakers today were Mr Bowie of Alabama Mr Power of and Mr Fox of Mississippi In the course of his remarks in favor of the claims of Mr Moss Mr ing declared that the Goebel election law was enacted to crush the public and was used to turn out duly elected state officers and place In power defeated candidates He said it made the election machinery of the state an adjunct of the democratic tion Under it the republicans had been able to elect only thirty members of the legislature out of one hundred although Beckham had carried the state by only plurality The Goebel law was so obnoxious and outrageous he said that within six months after it was stated that it stand forever as a monument tb the memory of its author the tucky legislature was convened to re- peal its most offensive features Mr Rhea the sitting member closed for his side of the case with an In his own behalf He drew a round of from Ms party colleagues when he declared that if he believed he had been returned to congress by fraud injustice or partisanship he would scorn a seat in the house to Mr attack on the elections in Kentucky he said he regretted that his colleague had played the part he had I shall not say thing unkind about said he nor against his political associates in tucky and I will not be taken away from the issue before the house further than to eay that his speech disclosed the fact that he is both partisan and ignorant of the election laws ol Mr Rhea declared that the law which lodged the final canvass of the tion returns in the general assembly in Kentucky had existed ever since the state had been a state and that if liam Goebel had never lived the law was invoked and which settled the contest of 1899 would have been the same Mr Rhea declared that the

pound in its uncolored form Mr Proctor of Vermont chairman of the committee on agriculture made the opening statement in support of the measure He said there was no disposition on the part of the of the ure to tax a legitimate industry out of existence He was satisfied that the measure was constructed along the of food experts chosen from the army and navy medical service the marine hospital service and from scientists in chemistry hygiene commerce manufactures The also gives definitions adulterations as plicable to certain foods and drugs It also fixes severe penalties for offenses
