Sioux City, Ia, Dec. 6.-The follow
ling is from the Sioux City Journal:
Kansas City for the place of the
next democratic national convention
New Jersey, as the candidate of that
convention would please NJ. NJ White,
of Ida Grove, democratic candidate for
congress last year in the eleventh Iowa
district, who was at the West Hotel
last night. He said:
| Governor Wilson, in my opinion,
will receive the solid delegation from
Iowa. In my travels over the state !
have found the sentiment in his favor
to be almost unanimous, and at that
have not been on any political mis-
sion"
The following is also from the Sioux
City Journal;
The Iowa delegation to the next
democratic national convention will
be for Governor Woodrow Wilson of
New Jersey according to the opinion
of James NJ. Parsons, of Des Moines,
who generally is regarded as one of
the most astute democratic politicians
of the state.
Il have been travelling over the state
a good deal lately" Mr.. Parsons said,
land the sentiment in favor of Wilson
seems to be practically unanimous, l
feel entirely safe in saying that every
county in the seventh district will in
struct for Wilson"
Mr.. Parsons is of the opinion that,
considering the disrupted condition of
the republican party of the state, Iowa
may go democratic on the national
ticket ard also return a democratic
governor.
New York, Dec. ga telegram to
the Evening Sun from Wilmington,
Del, says:
Attorney General Andrew c. Gray,
who is son of Federal Judge George
Gray, today came out with state
ment favoring the nomination of
Woodrow Wilson as the next demo-
cratic presidential candidate.

from The York Gazette:
Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New
Jersey, was unanimously endorsed for
president of the United States at an
enthusiastic meeting of the Young
Mems Democratic Society held last
evening in its headquarters, South
George street. There was an encour-
aging attendance of the members and
the session lasted several hours. There
was not a dissenting voice when it
came time to select choice for the
democratic party's standard bearer in
1912. Many speeches were made dur
ling the evening.
New York, Dec. 1.-THE following
is from the New York Herold
Conferences of democratic president
makers from all parts of the country
were held in New York during the last
week The more important of these
took place at the Metropolitan Club.
No definite result was reached, but
after an exchange of opinions the
friends of Dr. Woodrow Wilson say
they are much encouraged The news
that Mayor Fitzgerald, of Boston, had
declared for the New Jersey governor
was regarded as significant. w. A.
CASTOR, who for several years was
democratic national committeeman for
Massachusetts, was here during the
week and participated in some of the
discussions Mr. CASTOR represents
the conservative democrats of his
state, and as his intimacy with Mayor
Fitzgerald is well understood it is be-
lieved the Boston mayor would not
have got aboard the Wilson band wa
gon without first consulting his friends
The stand taken by Mr.. Fitzgerald
and one time Mayor Josiah Quincy,
who is also very close to Mr.. CASTOR,
is taken as an indication that New
England will be friendly to the erst-
while Princeton president. George
Fred Williams and the Bryan follow
ing in New England are supposed to
be for DIR. Wilson.
Rolla Wells, twice mayor of ST. Louis
was another of the prominent demo-
Gratis here. While Mr.. Wells has not
yet announced his stand, he admitted
that as Princeton alumnus he felt
very friendly to DR.. Wilson.
after talking to number of big
business men. who naturally take an
interest in politics" said Mr.. Wells.
"I think Dr. Wilson does not appear
so radical to them as he did just after
his tour of the far west last spring. In
