CONTESTS 200 SEATS.
Perkins Is Fighting Hard to Down
Cunnlins in Iowa.

Des Moines, Ia, July 30.=The Re
publican state central committee met
this morning to arrange the prelimin-
aries for the state convention which
will be held here Wednesday. The
counties in the state are entitled to l.
$40 delegates. About 200 seats are
contested. It was expected that the
committee would take up the contests
this morning. but they decided to defer
consideration until this afternoon. The
control of the temporary organization
of the convention will depend upon the
action of the state committee regard
ing these contests.
Governor Cummins, who is a candi-
date for reneminaton, CLANS to have a
majority of the delegates The adj
herents of George D. Perkins, who is
also a candidate for governor, main
tain that there We're Irregularities in
quite a number of the. county conVen-
lions and have contested and protested
the delegations selected by the ma
jority in such conventions. If the state
central committee decides to take up
the matter of contested seats and to
prepare a preliminary roll of delegates
for the convention to take part in the
temporary organization it is asserted
by friends of Perkins that they will
control the preliminary organization.
The friends of Governor Cummins, in
sisting that they have the majority, in
tend. it is said, to assert their rights
and to take charge of the convention.
The feeling on both sides is apparent
~ very bitter and if the state central
committee makes up preliminary roll
which gives the Perkins men control
at the start, ii is not unlikely that the
proceed ings of the convention from the
beginning Will be characterized by the
liveliest kind of a verbal warfare and
a bolt is among the possibilities.
The committee is understood to
stand seven stand pat and four pro
gressive. the former being the war
cry Of the Perkins men, and the latter
the slogan of the Cummins followers
The outcome is uncertain, since.
with the contested delegates eliminated
the two factions will be about equally
divided. the majority either way not
exceeding perhaps twenty-five.
