Des MOines. Iowa. MAY 2a-The political
| calm which has existed in Iowa since last
year when the Cummins- Perkins guberna-
torial fight ended in victory for the for
mer was suddenly ended to-day by the
formal announcement of Gov. A. B. Cum
Minis that he will make a fight for the
seat which has been occupied by United

early conference to perfect an organiza-

Senator Allison has never fntImated that
he would not be a candidate for reelection
TO the position which he has held as long
as most people In the State can remem-
Der. and II is expected that he will now
say the necessary word which will again
rally the loyal followers which he has had
for so many years. Even should Senator
Allison, who will be eighty years old

tire from the race, K would utterly

coinage of silver, is constantly bobhing I'D
to cause him embarrassment among the

RIDGELY TALKS TO BANKERS

/ Mr.. Ridgely dec.arel gt IhH eu-set rhat
/ the workingman is more dependent on

1T would be highly advisable in my

business affairs generally. To keep the
funds Of the government as far as pos
sible on deposit in the banks and only
withdraw them 10 the Treasury to re-

zone of the main causes Uf the annual
fall stringency is that at the time the
money goes to the West and South. the
customs receipts are large, and the Treas

the money centers just as the other de-
mand is made. If it were understood
that this cause Of disturbance was to be
removed. it would do as much to relieve
the strain Of crOp-moving as any special
steps the Treasury could take to relieve
the stringency after ii had began to ap-
pear,

kinds for the present method Of taking
more or less money out of circulation
without reference to conditions, to be re-
turned only by special action. after more
or less harm has been done by these
Withdrawals.
1t may not be wise to adopt this pol
