Ex-State Senator Thomas Cheshire is
Of That Opinion.
Washington, July 26.-If Senator
Allison remains in the race against
Governor Cummins, Senator Allison
will be defeated. This is the opinion
of ex-State Senator Thomas A. Ches-
hire of Iowa, who, with Mrs Cheshire
is in Washington, returning from the
jamestown exposition.
Senator Cheshire also believes that.
in his first term, Governor Cunlmins
will become one of the foremost lead
ers in national affairs in the senate.
Mr. Cheshire believes that Governor
Cummins Is certain to be Iowa's next
senator.
Discussing the gubernatorial situa-
ton in Iowa, Mr. Cheshire expressed
his view that Lieutenant Governor
Garst would be nominated for the gov
ernorship, and that there would be no
difficulty in centering on him as
nominee. Mr.. Cheshire is friendly to
Senator A. B. Funk, but he regards
talk of Funk as inspired largely by
standpatters who are trying to divide
the progressives in the hopes of thus
bringing about the nomination of Col,
D. j. Palmer.

Now. If may not be playing exactly
fair for a man to be alive after his

that he was dead, still some allowance
must be made for q man Ike Ted

is. When he was in Honolulu he al
