about 10 o'clock when he began to talk,
but he held his great audience closely
until the very close of the meeting,
which adjourned at about 11:20 o'clock.
Governor Cummins' address was a
review of the work OF the legislature
and of the progressive movement In
Iowa. He declared that the whole rec
ord was now up to the people for APP

declared his allegiance in the present

Senator Dolliver devoted his address
largely to an attack upon Governor
Cummins for the campaign that is be-

from Iowa. He read Cummins speech

tribute at the feet Of the Iowa delega-

Roosevelt and his policies and said
that now Governor Cuinmins was de-
claring in the townships that he had to
