Iowa republicans sent a big delesa-
ton to Minneapolis on one occasion 70
boost for Blaine. a big delegation Was
! sent to St Louis for Allison at a time
when it was certain he could Eot be

fine showing at Chicago, ana make Iowa
count.
! In. case there should be split IN
tine national republican convention. ara
cne faction or the other should Dol.
and nominate a separate ticket. II
would not be an easy matt,r to set on
the official ballots in Iowa. The ociters
could not get a place on the Foaliot as
republicans but would have to go on
with their candidates fer electors as
independents by petition. IL the con
vention should nominate R"osevel- the

Charles A. Rawson, manager OF the
Kenyon campaign. had party OF the
newspaper boys to dinner at the Des
Moines Club last evening as a COM
pHment to them for their good work
and to show his appreciation OF their
kindness. Mr. Rawson is president OF
the Iowa Pipe and Tile Company ana
strictly a business man. but he takes
great delight in the fortunes OF MS
| friend. the Junior senator. Two were
not only classmates at the state uni
versity but roommates and HaWson
has literally devoted days and nlgnts
! to seeing to it that the voters under-
stand what manner OF man senator
Kenyon is. But he modestly gives
credit to others. The unselhshness ana
completeness of the friendship OF
Charlie Rawson for will kenyon IS
one of the finest things in state poll
tics today. and it proved large factor
in making for success.
There will be several strangers IN
the republican state convention In Des
Moines next month. For instance there
will be some new faces from clarke
county. which Joe Long recently aban-
doned to it's fate and from whence
came Colonel Temple, the United
States attorney. The delegates 10 the
county convention are progresslves
and thew have sent word that they
uill send a progressive delegation TO
The state convention. There are said
n he several other counties going 10
ID similar remarkable thing. Incl
dentally It can be said that the south
balf of the state will look different on
the political map as made up for the
next convention.
One q fthe surprises Of the primary
in southern Iowa was the nomination
for member of the Iowa house Of j. 5.
Coffin. of Leon, over Israel A. Smith'
~ Iamoni. smith was the member In
the last session and he was one OF the
the senatorial
epht and a popular and capable man OF
real influence in legislation. Mr.. Coz
an is a. minister Of the Christian
church while Mr.. Smith belonged to
tho church Of Latter Day Saints. But
M Coffin is also business man ana
ha. made g. decided success OF BUSH
mas. and can afford to dabble in poll
tics He also is distinguished by being
a thorough going progressive
c,-s,oner Ketchum has COL
,aoted statistics which show that ne
no. about $4,000 majority over chris
O+tosen for railroad commissioner.
This is a decided compliment to nim'
az q was difficult to make campaign
%, one far down on the ticket. At the
Ia a. urinary where Mr.. Ketchum made
the race he had q bare fraction over
the requisite IS per cent
The demand Of the Iowa bankers at
their state convention that the oank-
