BUCHANAN PROGRESSIVE.
Indications Are That Cummins Will
Carry the County.

independence, Iowa, June 26.-Judg-
ing by the results of the first caucuses
in Buchanan county last night, the
progressives will have absolute con-
troll Of the county convention here
Last night Perry township at Jesup Sc
lected Cummins delegates to the con-
yention by vote of II to %, and Haz-
elton township caucus at Hazelton by
vote of 80 to 63 selected more
Cummins delegates. The Fairbanks
caucus will be held today. but yhe
remaining caucuses thruout the county
will be held Thursday. The convention
will be held in independence next Sat-
urday and will be composed of lib del
egates.
The county has been considered
safely progressive for some time, but
the standpatters have had numerous
workers at various points trying to in
fluence sentiment. George Gallarno of
Des Moines was here for several days
last week. Sunday he was at Waterloo
in conference with Howard Tedford
and w. F. Parrott, assistants to Ed
Hunter in the management Of the Per-
kins campaign. They told him, it is
said, that q contest must be arranged
for Buchanan county, regardless Of the
vote Of the people.
In addition to the Buchanan county
matters, it is understood that the con-
ference was to arrange a contest for
Black Hawk county. Parrot does not
want to take the responsibility as he
recognizes the selection of a contest
ing delegation from there to the senate
convention will probably mean a split
in the party locally and the defeat of
the county ticket by the democrats this
fall. Ed Hunter and Howard Tedford,
who are nonplussed because the stand
patters laid down in the convention,
are, with the cooperation of Julian
Richards whose candidacy for secre-
tary of state was indorsed by the pro-
gressives, doing their best to compel
George Lichty Jarnagin and other To-
cal leaders to go to Des tMoines as
contesting delegation So far, it is we'll
understood, Lichty refuses to hearken
to their threats and Jarnagin declares
he cannot on account Of his candidacy
for representative.
The rank ana file of the Buchanan
county republicans are with the pro-
gressves and many prominent men last
night stated that they expected that
practically every precinct in the coun-
ty will send Cunnins delegations to
the convention Saturday.
Governor cummins and E1-Gever-
nor Larrabee will speak here Wednes-
Gay and arrangements are being made
tu entertain one of the largest political
gatherings ever Witnessed in Indepen-
deuce. .,.trl.

one to which their eyes might other
wise often turn.
She is always to be found by the
lowliest ready to listen to an appeal
for help, ready to give each and every
one her strength and support and as
ready to see and help a stranger as
the oldest habitue of the settlement.
Jane Adams occupies a peculiar po-
sition in the public eye. She has no
religious creed or, if she has, she does
not thrust it on her people. All sorts
Of doctrines are preached in Hull
House but Miss Adams permits this
through the fact that her generosity
of spirit is big enough to allow every
one his own opinion. She is regarded
with the highest esteem by officials OF
the city and is frequently asked to ad-
dress large meetings. When she does
this she is listened to with strict at
tention.
Miss Adams Is a brilliant example
Of a woman who, having all in life
has not permitted herself to be salts
fed with her lot while others have suf-
fered. She has devoted time, money
and all the energy in her big self to
the uplifting of the lowly, to the spirit
ual welfare of the poor when that
could be done through kindness alone
and to the bodily comfort and enjoy
ment of these people by giving them
every means within her power to for
