BOLT AT BURLINGTON.
Two Conventions Name Two Sets Of
Republican Delegates to State Con-

vention.
Burlington. May 21.-Blythc's high
handed method Of running the Dcs
Moines county republican convention
Saturday forced a split. Two conVen-
tons were held, each selecting dele
gates to the state convention. There
VIII be two delegations from DeS
Moines county, one instructed to vote
for Cummins and Buttles. railroad
commissioners, and the other for Per-
kins and Palmer.
Major Holstcen was made chairman
of the convention, and it was plain
from the start that the Cummins men
were not TO be permitted to look in. a
committee on credentials was named
and approved all credentials except
those of the Second, Third and Fifth
wards where there were conteStinS
delegations. Three representatives,
from each delegation We're appointed
to present the cases to the committee.
The committee reported favoring the
seating OF the Perkins delegation in the
Second. splitting the vote in the Third
ward and seating the Cummins men in
the Fifth.
j. w. Blythe was chairman or the
committee on resolutions. which had
been prepared days ahead of the con-
vention The resolutions rcaffirmed
the principles OF the republican party,
Endorsed the work of the Iowa sena-
tors and congressman, applauded the
Roosevelt administration, and endorsed
the candidacy of Palmer. The Cum
MINIS men refused to stand for the en-
dorsement of Palmer and when their
demand to remove this section from
the resolutions was ignored they left
the convention and proceeded to hold
another convention. The Perkins men
then named twenty-three delegates to
the state convention.
W. w Copeland presided at the pro-
gressive meeting and twenty-three
delegates were named. The resolutions
were adopted favoring a square deal,
freedom from bossism. a primary cleo
ton law, and the election of United
States senators by the people. The
Cummins administration was endorsed
and the delegation was pledged to sup
port the candidacy Of Eugene Buttles
for railroad commissioners There was
no disorder in the convention. The
Cummins men were firm and insistent
In their demands for a square deal. In
several cases they were not recognized
by Chairman Holsteen. They left the
only as a last resort when
ii was plain that they could not gain
recognition.

age is that with a contested delegation
the delegates from that county will have
no voice in the temporary organization
OF the state conventionand If there is a
close vote this may be important
However, Des Moines county will have
no voice in the preliminary organiza-
ton OF the convention either.
This week the point of interest Is
Pottawattaue county. The Blythe
followers. some masqucrading under
Herriott and some under Perkins BAN
nerS, have made a desperate effort TO
carry Pottawattamie county, with its
thirty-tive votes. The spectacle was
seen today at Walnut of Perkins and
Herriott. two opposing candidates for
governor, speaking from the same plat
form, on the same general proposition
pound Cummns into the earth"
Aside from Pottawattamie there is
warm fight on in Page county where
Senator Lewis has been putting up one
of the prettiest fights in Iowa politics.
With the organization of the party all
against him he has been keeping them
buSN The chances are large that
Cummins will come out of this weeks
with enough delegates TO put
him close to the 700 mark. He now has

The 579 delegates given TO Cummns
includes the % from Webster
county. If he secures all the rest of
the 1856 here listed he will end the week
with just 692 delegates and within l29
of having a majority of the state con-
vention. If Perkins gets those listed
for him he will have in the state con-
vention 267 delegates not counting Des
Moines county. which is contested. and
by combining his forces with Rathbun
who has ninety, Perkins will have 35l
delegates. Counting Des Moines county
for Perkins and conceding that the
Rathbun delegates can be delivered by
the Blythe men and counting Wapello
for Cummins as the justice of the sit
uation would warrant, Cummins would
have us by the end of the week and
Perkins 357.

The wave of progressive sentiment
that is sweeping over the state, and
which has not been checked by
the carrying of a few pasted
redemption" Blythe counties for
Perkins, is having some eff
feet in Montgomery county. So much
so that Judge Smith Mcpherson who is
supposed to hate Cummins like poison,
has consented to divide the delegation
with Cummins. Montgomery has six
teen delegates. In 1901 ten of those
voted for Cummina This year the
Blythe forces claimed that Montgomery
county, along with southern counties,
would go solidly for Perkins. Now they
have consented to compromise and di-
vide the delegation from that county.
Judge Mcpherson is Blythe's man in
Montgomery county. He is supposed
to get out and do the political work in
that County. This campaign he got out
and tried to do business and failed.
Persons Who formerly listened to him
this campaign turned deaf ear and the
overtures of compromise with the
progressives quickly followed
The action of the republicans in
Wapello and Des Moines counties Sat
urlay is victory FOR the Cummins
forces in many ways, tho the Cumnlins
people had hoped that the Blythe fol-
lowers in Wapello would do the fair
thing and recognize a superior number
of votes. 1t was to be expected in Des
iMoines county. In Wapello, however,
it was expected that with 122 delegates
by the progressives to 9S for the Blythe
people, the progressives would be al
lowed to organize the convention as
soor as there was a fair showing of
votes, and that there would be no con-
tested delegation. The only disadvant-
