In northern Iowa five counties were
carried by standpatters with 81 votes,

Crawford and Monona.
There are still thirty-four counties
that last time went progressive, In
whole or mainly, and If carried this
year by the progressives, will yield 45S
delegates to the state convention.
Upon this computation. which Is fafr
and can not be attacked In any way
the state convention will stand: Stand

Thus far not a single one Of the pro-

Membsr Of the Grant Club enjoyed
hugely joke which Professor Holden
unconsciously perpetrated upon him
self at the dinner that was given him
the other evening. The professor of
course launched into his favorite
themes. with which he is familiar. and
he took a shot at those who assist in
sending Iowa farmers to Canada and
elsewhere out Of the state. He COM
puted how many people are leaving the
state because Of the allurements Of
fered by those who boost for lands in
other states. and he intended to refer
to their leaving Iowa. but
He forget himself and used the word
Idaho" in place of Iowa.
A smile passed around the banquet
table. Harry Wallace fidgeted nervous
ly, Ed Meredith looked solemn. and
Harvey Ingham kept still in several
languages. Nobody cheered. Each one
hoped that the other didn't notice the
break. But presently the professor.
warming up to his favorite theme
again, spoke Of the great things that
will be done for corn in this state
Again he forgot the strange COM
pany he was in and referred to Iowa as
Idaho

lessor didn't notice the error and didn't
try to correct it. The words slipped

side in evident dismay.
OF course every one present realized
it was a mere slip of the tongue that
Professor Holden should have so read
lily spoken of Idaho instead of Iowa,
but it was accepted as good joke.
Incidentally, SO one who was present
stated. the candidate did not once men

gest that he believes the republican
