CUMMINS FAVORS
NATIONAL PRIMARY
Iowa Senator Has Law Covering Sub
ject Ready to Present to
Next Congress.

Des Moines, Aug. Ex-senator AL
bert B. Cummins has authorized the
publication of statement of a plan
which he has in mind for the enact
ment of national primary law for
the nomination of candidates for
president and vice president.
When congress convenes Senator
Cummins will introduce a bill pro-
viding for such legislation. He de-
clared that if congress did not act
upon the measure within a reason
able time he would attempt to secure
legislation regulating national con-
ventions, and providing that the
party vote be the basis of represen-
tation instead of population.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-08-25

dents campaign letter public probably
on Monday morning, Sept. 5. This
date is not definite, however. He took
a copy of the letter back to New York
with him last night.
Mr.. Loudenslager thinks everything
is in pretty good shape for the cam
paign, and is sure the presidents let
ter will prove a big help. He declined
to discuss the contents of the letter in
any way.
DiscOuraging Maine Reports.
Just now discouraging stories are
coming in from Maine. The election
for congressman and state officials will
be held there on Sept. IL. The republi-
cans have had trained scouts going
through the state. Reports from there
are not encouraging. Confidential
statements to the republican authori-
ties are that Colonel Frederick w.
Plaisted, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, is likely to be elected that
Representative John P. Swasey, in the
Nelson-Dingley district, may be de
feated, while Representative E. c. Bur,
leigh, in the Augusta district, and Ash
er =, H1ndS, IN the Portland district,
are in danger, although likely to win
by narrow margins.
Trouble in Ohio.
There also has been complications in
Ohio during the last few days. Senator
Dick, an ardent standpatter, has got
the upper hand in organization matters,
and it has been arranged out there that
he shall be manager of the campaign.
The president is trying to prevent the
choice of Senator Dick.
Strangely enough, the presidents po-
litical troubles with the insurgent coun-
try are less acute than in some of the
eastern states. There are few worries
about Kansas, for instance. There is
little danger in Nebraska. In Iowa the
situation for the republicans promises
to grow a great deal better soon. Sen
ator Delivers recent utterances indi-
cate Iowa insurgents will soon accede
to campaign plans for harmony.
Advices are that New York and New
Jersey republicans are in wrangles that
threaten the prospect for November
success.
