CUMMlNs HOPEFUL
Republican Candidate Predicts His
Plurality Will be 5o,ooo-The Evans
Letter Branded az Utterly False -
speaks at Sioux City Next Week.

Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, Oct 26.-In spite Of his
rigorous campaigning, Governor "A. b.
Cummins, who passed thru here, de-
clared himself to be in fine health.
The governor was on his way to Nit
chell, S. D., to deliver an address In
behalf of the South Dakota republi-
can ticket, last evening. When asked
for statement as to what in his
opinion would be the plurality for
the various nominees on the republi-
can state ticket, he replied:
"The whole ticket will of course be
elected and the Legislature vii, be re
given to predicting figures but the
plurality Of the whole ticket will sure
ly be $4,000 at least"
Governor Cummins expressed pleas
ure that he will have an opportunity
to meet Sioux City people on the occa-
sion of his address here next Tues
day evening.
The governors attention was called
to a letter signed by one H. C. Evans,
a democratic lawyer of Des Moines,
in which Mr.. Evans asserted that the
governor had, in the course of a con-
versation last summer expressed the
hope that the democrats would put up
strong men to defeat Lacey and Hep
burn for congress and a weak man
against him, to insure his own sue
cess.
Il have not seen the letter and know
nothing about it," said the governor.
But, if Mr.. Evans says in that letter
that l sought at any time directly or
Indirectly, to influence the democratic
state convention, or that l proposed to
oppose Congressman Lacey or Con-
gressman Hepburn, he says what is
absolutely and utterly false"
