There has been no consideration
whatever Of the personnel Of delega-
tions outside of the southern districts.
At no time has there been any SLATE"
or effort to form one. for the delegates
at large. save some fugitive sugges-
lions as to slate which would include
one or two of the bitterest and most
unrelenting foes Of Senator Cummins
that could be selected In the state. The
friends of Senator Cummins have not
made single suggestion as to any one
or more for delegates at large.
Within the next two weeks a great
many conventions will be called but as
these will be mainly in the traditional
anti Cummins counties, they will give
results accordingly.
From the view point OF the campaign
for Iowa the situation is becoming
daily more hopeful. There does not
now seem to be any doubt whatever
that the republican national conven-
ton will be one Of the liveliest PROPOSE
tions ever recorded. The attitude Of
Col Roosevelt and President Taft to-
ward each other is bringing out the
sharp dividing line between the two
extremes within the party. The
Roosevelt speech in Ohio was virtually
a challenge to the reactionaries to
show cause why it was best for the
country to have changed policies and
reversed the order within the past few
years. Now it is announced that Taft
has accepted the challenge and will
q I, a n "a 1,,{fh
delivering speech at Toledo in an
swer to the colonel. This is sure TO
bring on a rejoinder. 1t is but an
other step to personalities and the dis
cussion Of specific matters of national
policy. BY the time the convention
meets it will be bitter fight between
the radical elements.
In such a contingency Iowa can well
afford to present candidate; who by
reason OF his progressive views and
thorough conservatism will unite the
party. This is the reasoning Of Iowa
people on the situation as it stands
today.
A fair illustration OF the views of
the common people is given in this
coiloquy in the Slavery hotel lobby:
II shall vote for Taft If he is nomin.
'ated,'' said ex-State Superintendent
Henry Sabin, "but will never vote for
Roosevelt again.
But there are many others saying
the opposite-tiiat tite, viii never
vote for Taft again under any cir
cumstances." said the other.
That's just IT," said Mr.. Sahin.
That shows right where we are in this
controversy. 1t has come to the point
where the party dare not nominate
either one without certainty Of defeat.
1t is unfortunate but that is just the
situation"
And this illustrates Situation that
is coming to be recognized every
where.
Iowa republicans desire to be in a
position to present a candidate who
will be able to win-one who represents
neither faction of the big interests but
would unite all the rank and file of the
party.
