No Action on Local Nominations.
The eleven district caucuses were
we'll attended by from fifty to seventy
five enthusiastic progressives. Each
served to start the work of the day
for the new progressive party in Iowa
These caucuses selected delegates, cleo
tors and committeeman and a confer
ence committee on the general work OF
the convention. In number of them
the issue Of making nominat tions for
local offices came up and in every case
IT, was decided no action ought to ,,e
taken either for or against local nom
nations. There was much rivalry for
places on the delega ton and commit
tees.
Congressional Candidate. Not Chosen
The Second district caucus attracted
much attention because Of the fact
that several matters were to be taken
up by its delegates which others did
not touch upon. An effort to name a
candidate for congress from this dis
trict did not materialize, acton being
deferred until later. A committee for
the new party was named, however, to
take charge of the matter and at a
later meeting to arrange for putting q
progressive candidate In the field. The
Second is the only district In the state
in which the regular republican organ
ization did not nominate candidate
for congress.
On motion Of ]. NJ. Dover, OF Scott
county, the following congressional
committee for the Second district was
chosen: Jackson, Noble Wilcox, Clin-
ton; w. e. Henning. Iowa: F. H.
Marston; Johnson, Theodore E. Love-
land: Muscatine, F. r. Halstead;
Scott. NJ. H. Calderwood.
The members Of the delegation de-
ferred the matter Of the state central
committeeman until this afternoon
