i the same platform With Mr.. Rominger
who is an announced candidate from
4 the Sixth district for congress, that

statements:
TT VIII be Dave Palmer when the

Palmer is TO. be a candidate further
tends to confirm the report OF some
weeks ago that the friends OF the
colonel. especially among the old SOL
diers, do not propose to allow him 70
be sidetracked again by the Blythe
people, According to all appearances,
therefore. it looks at this time as tho
there will be two standpat candidates
out for governor next year.

In the case of Burrier of Clinton,
charged with violation of his parole,
Governor Cummins may decide to turn
him over to the authorities of Indi-
ana.
An agent Of the executive office will
visit Clinton the coming week to de-
termne the facts with respect to Bur
rier's lapse from self control. If it
turns out that there were no extenuat-
Ing circumstances connected with his
downfall, it is probable that he will be
turned over to Indiana.
That state has been anxious to Sc
cure possession Of him for some time.
He is under a sentence in that stats
that will keep him for some time. I'm
der the comfy which exists between
states, as long as he is at liberty on a
parole in Iowa he Is not subject to ar
rest and return to Indiana by the au-
thorities of that state. But were the |
governor to. turn him over to Indiana, |
that state would be glad to get him
serve the sentence said to hang over
him there.
II his parole Is revoked and he Is |
to prison in this state, he |
will secure his liberty within short |
time, in any event, and then Indiana
could extradite him and he would have
longer to serve than he would IL he re-
turned to that state now.
