DESTROYED BY FIRE. MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa, Oct. 22. Practically all that was left of the business portion of Bristwa, as a rt. suit of last week's fire, was destroyed by fire today. The fire is believed to have been of incendiary origin. jllilllk Ml IHfiSSi V ST. LOUIS, Oct. 22. This city is at present in the midst of an excitement beyond anything that it has experienced in recent years. Old and young, rich and poor, all seem to have become beside themselves over an individual who was a stranger to St. Louis until two weeks ago. The man who has created all this turmoil is L. T. Cooper, President of the Cooper Medicine Co., of Dayton. Ohio, who is at present introducing his preparations in this city for the first time. . . Cooper is a man abont thirty years of age, who has acquired a fortune with in the past, two years by the sale of some preparations of which he is the owner. Reports from Eastern cities that pre. ceded the young man here were of the most startling nature, many of the leading dailie going so far as to state that he had nightly cured in public places deafness of years' standing with one of his preparations. The physicians of the East contradicted this statement, claiming the thing to be impossible, but the facts seemed to bear out the state ment that Cooper actually did so. In consequence people flocked to him by thousands, and his preparations sold like wildfire. Many of these Ktorie were regarded as 'fictitious in St. Louis, and until Cooper actually reached this city, little attention was jaid to them. Hardly had the young man arrived, however, had be begun demonstations, as he calls them, in public, and daily met people afflicted with deafness, and with a sin. gle application of one of his prepara tions, actually made deaf people hear again. In addition to this work, Cooper ad. vaneed the theory that stomach trou ble was the foundation of nine out of ten diseases, and claimed to have a preparation that would restore the stomach to working order, and thus get rid of such trouble as rheumatism and affections of the kidneys and liver in about two weeks' time. This statement seems to have been borne out by the remarkable results obtained through the use of this prep, aration, and now all St. Louis is ap parently made over the young man. Ilis headquarters resemble a verit. able stampede. Thousands of people are visiting him each day and the druggist are selling his medicines in enormous quantities. What seems to make Cooper still more popular is the fact that he prac tices extensive charitable work and ha already dispensed a small fortune among the poor of this city. How long the tremendous interest in Cooper will last is hard to estimate. At present there seems to be no sign of a let.up. Physicians claim it to be a fad that will die out as soon as Cooper leaves. In justice to him, however, it must be said that he already seems to have accomplished a great deal for the sick of this city with his preparations. DEMANDS (Continued from page 1) 4W S. A.

The Kind Yen to Always Bought Boars tho K JSP-J-Signaturo cf Lc -fjni&tUM Harry New of Indiana had been se lected to succeed him, For some re son there was a all p. and it U not known now whether Mr. New would step In should Mr, Cortclyou step out during the comlmr winter. There has been a good deal of talk lately that Elmer Dover, secretary of the commit, tee, might 1 Tie va ted to the chair manship. Mr. Oortolyou'a successor, of course, will serve only until the meet, ing of the next Republican national convention. One of the familiar symptom of an "off" year in politics is the expression of alarm by the party in power that over-confidence may bring about party disaster on election day. The alarm arrived on schedule time this year, and has been given the official endorsement of President Roosevelt and "other prom inent party-leaders, "Uncle Joe Cannon was In town this week and voiced the universal appre. hension. Said the Speaker of the House: "I have never seen the people so universally employed, both on the farm and In the factory, and this fur nishes work to all those engaged in transportation. The great mass of the people are thoroughly satisfied with present conditions and from the Rrpnh. Mean standpoint the only object of a campaign is to see that this salisfae tion of the people U registered at the ballot box." To read between the lines, it can be seen that Speaker Cannon fears what every other thinking Republican fears, that the Republicans will be victims of their own negligence or overeonlldenee, No Republican lender will admit that his party could be defeated on a full vote, but from the President down the cry goes up to get out the vote. The Speaker did not diwuss condi tions in hi own district, further than to say he has no fear in submitting his record as a friend of labor to the vot ers of his district. Those who have been with the Speaker claim there will lie no falling off in his majority. Representative James' W. Vaton, the Republican "whip" of the Houe, who has been accompanying Mr. Cannon on his campaign tour this fall, expressed the opinion that the forecast of the result of the Congressional elections made by Gen. Orosvenor was quite ac. curate. Mr. Watson has been keeping in touch with the situation in the va rious states and says that his estimate corresponds with that of "Old Fig. urea," as the Ohio Representative is sometimes called. As a matter of fact, (ien. Orosvenor and Mr, Watson com pared notes before the former prepared his table. against Hearst below Fourteenth street Is going to He something tei title, and It will be cast by men who have heretofore hIwaxs supported the JVmocratle ticket, I am not slinking as a politician, but as business iiihh and oWrer of eimettt events, lu my manufacturing 'plant there are employed at least 4.10 voters, and I haven't heard of any Mention on the part of 'any of them to support Hearst.

Wishard, of Indianapolis, Ind., solicitor of the Bureau of Inter nal Revenue, during Mr. Roosevelt's first term, and United States district attorney for his home district during President Mckinley's administration, was among the week's visitors, ne managed several of the campaigns of Mr. Fairbanks in years gone by, and know politics in Indiana like a book. "Next month Indiana will give a Re publican majority of between 40,000 and 00,000,' said Mr. Wishard. "flov. Han. ley has made the best executive of the state that I have known, nd I have teen watching politics in the state for the past twenty-five years. He is an absolutely honest and fearless man, and is very popular everywhere. If it were not for the constitutional provision that a governor shalj not serve two terms in succession, he would easily be renominated and reelected two years henoe. As it is, we must look elsewhere for our next executive. "Tli is time we elect a secretary of state, treasurer, auditor, school com missioner, and members of the Supreme and Appellate courts. The fact that the last auditor was tried for malfea sance, convicted and is now serving his term in the penitentiary, removed all "blame from the State administration on that score. The campaign is without great issues, and the Republicans get their strength largely from the weak ness of tne Democrats who are in a bad way. They have neither definite principles nor leaders." While Washington, as a matter of course, is interested in the political con tests in all the States, no other strug. gle is of such absorbing moment as the New York gubernatorial contest. Ev ery visitor who can throw any light on the New York situation is given an eager hearing. J. J. McCloskey, a well known New York manufacturer, who was here thi week, added his predic tion to the many already recorded that Mr. Hearst will be defeated, and that his 'defeat will be brought about by IemolcrJatic votes for Hughes. ; Discussing the situation In New York MV.
