Cummins and Judge B. P. Birdsall adj
dressed a large and enthusiastic repub-
lican rally here last night. Hundreds
were turned away from the opera
house. unable to find even standing
room. Governor Cummins was COM
PEELED to cut his address short on &C
count Of not having fully recovered
/ from the threat trouble that caused
him SO much trouble short time ago.
His address was largely confined to the
tariff and explaining the Iowa plat
form. He paid high tribute to Judge
Birdsall and urged republicans to stand
/ firmly by him. He stated that ex-
Governor Boies undoubtedly had
strong following among the republicans
i OF the Third district, but that this
should not in any manner be allowed to
/ influence the vote. as the ballot was for
the discrimination Of the democratic
and republican principles, not the
1 personal standing of the candidates.
Judge Birdsalrs speech was fully In
accord with Governor Curnmins.' He
stated that he stood squarely upon the
Iowa platform and If elected to con-
gress would do all in his power to carry
out the principles contained therein.
He referred to Ex-Governor Boies' past
record, pertinently inquiring how the
democratic candidate proposed to stand
on the money questions.
In the afternoon they were rendered
q reception by the Waterloo republic
ans. Governor Cummins expressed
himself as well satisfied with the re-
publican prospects in the coming elec-
ton and stated that he felt certain all
republican congressional candidates
would be elected by the usual MAORI
ties.
It is generally admitted by the more
conservative democrats of the district
that Judge Rirdsall will have major
| ity In the Third district OF about 1000.
The democrats state that the usual re-
publican majority will be cut to this
because the democratic vote will be
gotten out almost in full this fall. For
some years past there has been an open
rupture in the party in this district, but
81! have united under Governor Boies'
Banner.
