!. The notice prepared by w. F. Par
rott, under the direction of the Per-
kins committee and Ed Hunter, to
which the governors letter is a reply,
was served on Chairman Spence Sat-
urday night The Parrot notice in
part follows:
I'VE further claim that the contest
ing delegates from each county in dis
pute have the right to appear or be
represented locally or otherwise in the
presentation of such contests as prop
erly come before said committee under
the rules and orders of said commit
tee.
1--WE understand that during the pro-
gress of the campaign, the rspubli-
cans of Iowa, thru the press and other
wise, have been notified of probable
contests on behalf of different sets Of
delegates from the following counties:
From the First district. Des Moines.
Jefferson and Lee counties; from the
Second district, Scott county; from the
Third district, Delaware county; from
the Fourth district. Anamakee and
Chickasaw counties; from the Sixth
district, Jasper and Wapello counties:
from the Seventh district, Dallas coun>
ty; from the Ninth district, Audubon
county; from the Tenth district, Car
roll county, and from the Eleventh dis
trict, Lyon county: and we hereby sug-
gest that the contestants and confess
tees from each of said counties be al
lowed to file their contests with the
chairman of said committee, and pre-
g 1T same under the rules and orders
of said committee.
1--WE further understand that the re-
publicans of Iowa have been notified
thru the press and otherwise of pros
tests against the seating of the dele
gates from the counties of Boone and
Polk, and suggest that said protests
be heard and disposed of by said COM
mittee
I'VE further suggest and request
that the Hon. George d. Perkins, can
didate for governor. by and thru his
managers or. otherwise, he permitted
by said committee to present tersely
and clearly the position of said candi-
date in reference to said several cons
tests and protests for the purpose OF
indicating SO far as it is now possible
the position of Mr.. Perkins and his im>
mediate personal representatives on
these questions.
Careful investigation has been
made by us in reference to the fol-
lowing contests upon which we de-
sire to be heard, on the merits of the
respective controversies along the
lines herein indicated, towit:
1--WE claim that the Perkins dele
gates are not only prima facie, but
upon the merits entitled to seats in
the convention, from the following dis
tricts and counties: First district, Des
Moines, Jefferson, and Lee counties;
Second district, Scott county; Third
district. Delaware county; Fourth dis
trict, Allamakee and Chickasaw coun-
ties; Sixth district, Jasper and Wapel-
10 counties: Seventh district, Dallas
county; Ninth district, Audubon coun-
ty; and that the so-called Cummins
delegates from each Of the counties
herein particularly specified are be-
yond question not entitled to seats in
said convention; and that due consid-
Grafton be given to the protests filed
with said committee"
The letter then suggests that a
time be appointed for hearing and
concludes:
BY doing this we have not under
taken to preclude those interested in
any other contests or protests which
have not been specifically called to our
attention from having their rights pre-
served. Respectfully submitted,
w. f. PARROTT,
Manager.
