gave Cummins 27 votes to 173 for Per-
kins Just the grounds of contest are
not understood here. It is evident that
both factions are fighting every step
Of the way, and it is probable that
there may be number OF contests be-
fore the state convention.

quarters yesterday. He expressed as

territory and with the exception of

certain to go standpat.
