u
Des MONIES, June 2e.-(Special to
the Burlington Hawk-Eye.) = June
rs reports to eastern papers
have been sent out from Des
Moines, claiming that Governor AL
bert B. Cummins has votes enough al
ready to give him the nomination at
the hands Of the coming republican
state convention. A careful analysis
of their own figures indicates the falls
ity of their claims. AS part Of the
majority which they claim they count
Jefferson, Jasper, Wapello and in some
cases Des Moines counties. In these
counties they have contests If which
they themselves have no faith. With
drawing Jasper, Jefferson and Wapello
counties and their majority disappears.
Withdrawing counties contested by the
Perkins men and it dwindles still fur
Their. AS the gubernatorial situation
now is, it is an open contest and re-
suits must depend upon the seating
and unseating of delegates. The sup
porters of George D. Perkins are alert
and intend to see that the rights Of
the standpatters are preserved
Not Authorized BY MIR. Perkins.
Des Moines, June 26.-The story
which has attained some circulation in
regard to the submission of the ques-
ton of the contested delegations to the
state convention to non-factional tri-
bunal is without the endorsement Of
Mr.. Perkins managers.
They say that Mr.. Perkins himself
in his interview printed today, states
the question thoroughly when he says,
Il should say that when Governor
Cummins indicates his wishes in the
matter it is time for me to talk. If
Governor Cummins' friends have any
proposition to make that is tangible it
would be for my managers to consisi-
err"
No Proposition Made.
The Perkins managers say that no
one is authorized to speak for Mr.. Per-
kins on this question except Mr.. Per
llins himself or his managers. No such
proposition has been made by them
and none will be made. They do not
feel that this is the time for any propo.
sitions of the sort and they certainly
will not make any but if Mr.. Cummins
or his friends have any proposition to
make 1t will, of course, receive cour-
teous consideration at their hands.
Mr.. Perkins managers feel that they
have the right on their side and so
long as this is true they are not look.
ing for compromise proposition.
In the line of the disposal of contest
ed delegations a little addition to pres.
ent day political history was made by

in vain. In haitian hour the labored

On Reneh.

Justice Harlem Of q. s. Supreme
Court, Has Served 80 Years
On Bench.
Associated Press to The Evenlng T1nes.
Washington, D. c., Nov. 30.-For
Justice Harlan Thanksgiving day.
this year, Is an anniversary of more
than ordinary interest. 1t marks the
beginning of his thirtieth year on the
supreme bench, he having became a
member of the court, Nov. 20. 1877.
Justice Harlan is the only member Of
the supreme court now eligible to re-
tire. with the exception of Chief JUS
tice Fuller. For good health and
youthful activity Justice Harlan takes
first rank. He is only three months
the.junior Of the chief justice, but he
is a physical giant, and seemingly as
full of health as the best of men. He
is Republican. and a pretty strict
party man. and should the Demo-
Gratis win in 1905. he would probably
give President Roosevelt the privilege
of appointing his successor. He was
born in Kentucky, and his ancestors
were Virginians. During his long
career on the supreme bench he has
handed down some noted decisions, in
Guiding that in the Nebraska maxi
mum freight rate case and the North
ern Securities case.
