Des Mones, Iowa, March 9.-President
9th Iowa districts, and consequently four
more votes in the Chicago convention, by
the county Republican conventions held
throughout these districts.
In ten of the Republican county con-
ventions held to-day, President Taft re-
ceived more than a hundred instructed
delegates to the state convention to be
held in Cedar Rapids. in April
The President thus scored his second
victory in the insurgent state of which
Senator Cummins is the favorite son for
the Presidential nomination. The 9TH
District has already given him two dele
gates Seven of ten counties in the Sth
to-day instructed delegates to the dis
the Sth elected a Taft delegation, though
uninstructed, thus assuring him control
of the Creston convention next Thurs
day. Page County had chosen a Roose-
velt delegation and Fremont will instruct
for Taft on Monday.
OF the five counties OF the 9th that
have not previously convened. four in
dorsed Taft and one indorsed Cummins.
Three of the remaining four are con-
trolled by Taft men, though unin-
structed. while the fourth is pledged to
the President, giving him good major
ity for the Council Bluffs convention
next "'ednesday.
Such action indicates Senator Cum
mns's inability to carry his own state,
inasmuch as the first three districts to
elect will go against him. He will con-
troll the 1th his home district conven-
ton, next week, no hard fight having
