Sioux City. May 20. The Tri-
bune publishes the following political
gossip concerning Wednesdays con-
vention:
THE cheerful spectacle of n con-
vention absolutely. frankly, ayowedly
bosSed by the man (Blythe) who
three months ago was seemingly
seeking candidate strong enough to
defeat Roosevelt, was presented, and
the convention liked it. So far had
fractional hatreds gone in Iowa. So
far have the Hill Morgan Wall street
crowd eutrenched themselves in Iowa
through control of the sinews of war,
the railroads favors, and the great
majority of the states daily press.
Mr.. Blythe is extremely anxious to
get back into full control of the ex-
ecutiYe council. The present situa-
ton is peculiar. for, if Cummins
should retaliate against him by hav-
ing the railroad assessment increased
about so per cent there would be no
such a thing as ever getting it ma
terially reduced. There are hints
Blythe crowd talks constantly Of
coming to the second convention
later in the summer, and turning
down Treasurer Gilbertson and Sec
rotary Martin and nominating new
machine made men in their places.
Gilbertson and Martin are both ask
ing third terms which have long
been granted in these offices, but the
disposition to sweep everything away
while they are in power has taken
such an intoxicating hold on the re-
stored Old Crowd that they are will
ing to sacrifice the third term prec-
endent or anything else in order to
fill the measure of their revenge. But
all that awaits the second convention.
There is talk that Blythe is still
seeking n desirable candidate for
railroad commissioner to succeed Ed
Brown. He wants man of good CAL
iber, who will make the commission
command some respect. 1t has fall
len so sadly into disrepute of late years
that there is danger of abolition. and,
weak as it is, the commission is
still useful to the rallroauS ana they
do not want it to lose any more
caste.
"There is no evidence that their
candidate has yet been announced.
Senator Hogue of Monona could have
the place if he would take it. but
thus far he has insisted that he
doesn't want it. AS to the attitude
of the Cummins men in this crisis of
sudden, sweeping restoration OF rail-
road and high tariff domination, it is
decidedly philosophical They would
have been pleased if the opposition
had kept Cummins off the delegation
at large 1t may be added that
Cummins would have been Immensely
pleased. That would have been the

browning act. and would have turned
q strong tide oil sympathy toward
him. There are many of the haters
who would have liked to do 1t, but
milder counsel prevailed.
There is more and more talk in
Des Moines that Cumm.ns will be a
hence against Hull That he would
win in such fight. few doubt. 1t
would give him a new lease of
political life. it would opea field i'll
which his abil ties would best dis
play themselves. 1t would tut HIM
in shape to get the full benefit of the
great reaction against present high
tariff policies which he and his
friends are sure is coming.
The Cummns people exratced y
good deal of quiet satisfaction from
the result in the caucus of the Sec
ond district THE Second includes
Scott, Muscatine, Jackson, Iowa. and
johnson counties, and is by far the
chief manufacturing section of the
state. While the farming districts and
farmer delegates were saving the
manufacturing industries of the ma

Ida Grove, May ao.-That in north
western Iowa as elsewhere the grain
business has fallen into the hands OF
a small group of big companies who
operate under a harmonious UNDER
standing and that in many instances
where an independent grain dealer. does
remain he is brought to terms and
forced to work in harmony with the
line company by the threat real or i'm
piled of ruinous competition, is OBJ
Nious to every observer in this section.
Nor have the big companies much
to fear in the way of competition, as
with the assistance of the railroads,
they can throw many obstacles IN the
way of new business concerns ana
can also block any attempt of a new
competitor to obtain relief thru legis-
lative or official sources. The rail-
roads get the haul. the line elevators
control the grain. and the coterfe OF
big operators control the line elevators
and are in touch with the railroads
enabling them to hold back grain and
push up prices, or If they choose rush
1t to market and break them down.
There is no competition in the max
ing Of prices at either end of the line.
The producers naturally don't feel
cheerful about 1t and If the consumer
understood the situation they would
find no cause for citation.
recent instance in Ida county is
typical OF northwestern Iowa condi-
lions and is unique only in that the at
tempt to establish competition sue

have failed.
