Des Moines. Aug. 3.-With the stand
patters and progressives apparently
hopelessly at variance on the essential
matter OF tariff plank. the republican
state convention was called to order to-
day for the purpose Of writing plat
form, selecting state committee and
making nominations for superintendent
OF public instruction and two supreme
court judgeships.
Discord Is expected to be more in
evidence in the campaign than effect
i've at the convention. which has safe
progressive majority. The standpa tiers
in conference adopted their planks with
the fuH knowledge that they could not
be forced thru the convention The
platform which is to be adopted will
be unmistakably an insurgent cor,..
nation Of the tariff law and encomtums
for the state insurgent congressional
delegation.
Mild Endorsement Of Taft.

the temporary chairman, was the sig-
nal for a wild burst OF applause. SEN

chairman, came In a few moments later

What the standpat. Wanted.

What the Standpats Wanted.
Des Moines, Aug. 3.-Stripped Of the
verbiage with which custom encumbers
political platforms. the four standpat
resolutions, upon which the Iowa re-
publican convention today will see a
determined fight and a test Of strength,
are as follows:
"First-We tndorse President Will
liam III. Taft and his administration Of
the affairs of the nation. We indorse
him as the leader of the republican
party in the nation.
"Second-We tndorse the economical
and statesmanlike administration Of
Governor q. F. Carroll leader of the
republican party in the state Of Iowa.
"Third-We indorse the action of
President Taft in placing his signature
and his approval upon the Payne
Aldrich tariff bill and to this law we
give our full and unqualified indorse-
ment.
"Fourth-Insofar as they have aided
president Taft in carrying out the pol
ictes and the program Of the admin
istration we indorse the Iowa delega-
tion in Washington"
Throwing aside whatever idea Of
harmony ana compromise that may
have existed, the standpat committee
(which was yesterday named to frame
|resolutions to represent that faction
last night came to a decision on these
four propositions. This was the news
that leaked out among the delegates IN
the hotel lobbies and was whispered
about from mouth to mouth after the
committee had finished it's tedious ses-
sions in the office OF Frank d. jack
son in the Fleming building. IS
Tariff Plank a SURPRISE.
The few delegates who last night
learned the nature Of the standpat pro-
pram were surprised by the fiat foot
ed Endorsement Of the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill which the proposed resolu-
tions and prepare them for presenta-
tions will demand. Before the COM
mittee met to discus and prepare
them for presentation to the
convention committee, promi-
nent standpatter who afterward
helped to direct affairs in the commit
tee room, declared that In his opinion
tho tariff plank on which his faction
would insist would be in the nature of
q harmony plank, with merely the con-
ventional Endorsement of the protective
principle. But it Is evident that his
counsel did not prevail and that after
a thorough discussion Of the PROPOSE
tion the conferees decided to throw
down the gauntlet and in unmistakable
terms demand exactly what they would
incorporate in the resolutions If they
were in control Of the convention.
