"Immediately on my return from tha last sestlon of Congress I ran out through the press my opinion with re spect to tha Presidency. That tpinlsa remains unaltered. "Tha situation, however, has mate rially changed, and It now aenta prob able that mora than two candidates for the Domination will be seriously con sidered by the National Convention. "Under these conditions. If the Re publicans of Iowa bcllere I am a flt man to be presented to the National Convention aa a candidate for tha Pres idential nomination, and desire to so present me. I will appreciate and accept their confidence aa a most gratifying evidence ot their continued faith In my purpose to serve, at best I can. tha gen eral welfare of the people."

In charge, that the fight for La Foiletta would continue as If there were no other "Progressive" Republican candl datea on the horizon; that It was "Mr. La Follette first, last and all the time." In regard to the report from Denver that a concerted movement was on foot to bold a pre-conventlon meeting and decide on one "Progresatve" candidate, liouser aald he knew nothing of any auch move. He could not see that any conference of the sort was likely. Senator La Follette'a only comment when shown tha Cummlna statement was: "1 have nothing to ay." Senator Cummlna called together all tha Republican members of the Iowa delegation In Congress who were In tha city and read to them the statement an nouncing his candidacy, which they ap proved. Senator Kenyon, Cummlna' col league In tha Senate, has not returned from Chicago. Tha Iowa delegation re-elected Rep resentative Woods as member of the Republican Congressional campaign committee.

Free and unrestricted use of Theodore Roosevelt's name In connection with the Republican nomination for the Presidency 1 reported to threaten a break In the rank of the "progre sivea" tn Illinois. Since the opening of the 1 Toilette Western headquarter In Chicago there have been persistent rumor that all - . hateMn tha man- was II u k ii . i n.u.nvo - . agers of the Presidential and state campaigns. Senator Walter Clyde Jones and his adviser did not declare themselves on the Presidency until about the time Senator La Follette vis ited Illinois recently. Then they came out for the Wisconsin man. Even that, it Is said, did not bring the two campaigns any closer together. Some of Senator Jones' friend charge he did not receive the consideration to which he la entitled from the La Fol lette committee. It is alleged the state committee 1 In debt and that Its finances are at a low ebb. while the National committee has plenty of money, which It Is using only for the benefit of Senator La Fol lette. It Is from resentment at the attitude of the Western branch of the La Fol lette committee, are rumors which are afloat, that Senator Jonea and his friends are said to be turning toward Roosevelt as the National leader. This sentiment has been growing. It Is re ported, among those progressives who are interested In the success of the state candidates. - and it Is likely to reach a climax at the convention of the next week.

ALVEOLAR DENTISTRY 501YeonBld Telephone Main 11 3 1 A.JvertisinService DOES AWAY ENTIRELY WITH PAR TIAL PLATES AND ORDINARY BlllDGEWORK. "Out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaketh," and well might it have been said, "Out of the emptiness of the mouth the eyes weepeth. How many times Is the sunshine In the heart eclipsed by an ugly mouth and obnoxious teeth? There la nothing that exerts so strong and extensive an In fluence for good aa a broad, generous and wholesome smile. "Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone," but it is not such an easy matter to laugh when It brings to light a row of crooked and snaggy teeth. And ofttlmes the human face, which should be the outlet of noble, happy thoughts and impulses to the world round about us, becomes the dumping station of frowns and wrinkles. Buv yourself some pretty teeth and do not be afraid to smile and give forth to those who live with you and about you your own good thoughts and cheer fulness. And when you buy teeth, buy the best. There is as much difference between Alveolar Teeth and the ordi nary brldgework done by the ordinary dentist as there is between right and wrong. "Teeth is teeth" whan they are. but In most cases they are not. That is. you ouy teein wun an guu ah.h, ik and trustfulness of your nature and you pav a fair price, but that does not cover the defects nor stem the tide of your indignation when you discover some few months hence the indisput able sign of unearned wear and quick demise. Teeth of unknown or undesir able quality are generally unworthy your attention, which same you most frequently discover after the bill has been paid. It Is better to buy good teeth once than to buy cheap teeth 10 times over. You take no chance wltn ALVEOLAR TEETH. They are guar anteed to stand you and withstand you as long as you live. They are beauti ful, lifelike, serviceable and everlast ing. We will gladly refer you to hun dreds in this city alone, who will com mend them to you. There can be no better proof of the desirability of a thing than the com mendation of those who have tried it. We have treated something like five thousand people in our Portland and Seattle offices, and we are confident that nearly If not every single one will say, if asked, that the work is entirely satisfactory in every way and far ex ceeded their expectations. We can re fer to at least four hnndred people whom we have actually and unquestion ably cured of Pyorrhea tlooae teeth). Alveolar Teeth Whrre Brldgework Is lmponaible. If only your front teeth are left, say three or four or more, we can replace all those that have been lost on both sides clear back, with perfect Alveolar teeth, whilst brldgework would be impossioie, even u yuu iictu eigni ur ten front teeth to tie to. If you have only two back teeth on each side, say molars, we can supply all the front teeth that are missing with beautiful, serviceable, lifelike Alveolar teeth. This could not possibly be done by the bridge route. And where bridgework is possible there is no comparison be tween the two. A very large percent age of our work is taking out bridge work put in by supposedly high-class dentists and replacing it with the beautiful and artistic Alveolar teeth. And, unlike bridgework in another re spect, it Is practically painless. No boring or cutting into the gums, noth ing to be dreaded. Now, then, prices being equal, which would you choose? Curing Pyorrhea (loose teeth), a dis ease given up by other dentists as in curable, is another of our specialties. We cure it absolutely. It is a boastful statement to make, but we can do any thing that is possible in dentistry and what we do is always of the very high est class. "Our booklets, Alveolar Den tistry, are free. Write for one if you cannot call. We have samples of our work to show at all times, and the very beet of references, an army of them in this city and state.
