Cummins has committed

Senator Cummins has committed
political suicide by his bolt from the
republican party. He cannot hope
to be returned to the senate two
years hence unless the progressiyes
have clear majority over all 9TH
err parties in the legislature and this
is beyond the range of possibilities.
Has he the assurance to believe that
Taft republican members of the legis-
lature will give him their votes to
continue him in office after his as
saults upon the republican can
didate for the presidency? We fancy
the glee with which the Taft repub-
Leans will thrust the knife into his
political hide: But it was impossi-
bic for him to remain under cover.
had to choose between the two
branches OF the republican party.
Two years hence he will be obliged
to go on the primary ballot as
candidate for United States Senator
either as a progressive or as re-
publican. He cannot under the law
be the candidate on both republican
and progressive tickets. He has
chosen the progressive. There will
be another's name on the republi-
can ballot as candidate for senator.
Kenyon does not face similar stu
alton. He was nominated at the
primary election as the republican
candidate AMI could not on the eve
OF the election desert his party and
hope for it's support.

VIII SONS ELECTION PREDICTED.

81 Cedar Rapids Gazette. ;.
The alignment of Senator Cum
Minis with the Roosevelt cause and OF
Senator Kenyon with the Taft cause,
will probably not change the attl-
.ude of thousands Of Iowa progress
sives, who have made : up their
minds, definitely, to support Wood
row Wilson. These progresslves
claim for themselves the right to
support Wilson, the same as the sena.
tors claim the right to support their
PERSONAL choice. The progresslves
OF Iowa will be found voting for
Wilson, in November, by the scores
of thousands. To large number
of us, support of Wilson seems the
logical and proper thing. It appears
to be the best way to rebuke the
Chicago scandal These Wilson re-
publicans find in the democratic can
didate for the presidency a man
whom they believe will make a
great president. Wilson is big
man; he has made good record as
governor of New Jersey; he is pro
sressive; he is not tied to any spec
ial interests; he has proclaimed his
independence of the standpat bosses
in the democratic camp; he is man
who can and will rise far above
partisanship. For these reasons and
others, Wilson will receive very
large progressive republican vote.
And he will be elected.

RESTAGiNG 1904.

New York Evening Post: Presi-
Dental campaigns cannot be again
fought eight years after they were
decided. The water has flowed over
the dam But we certainly can now
the events of the cleo
ton of 1904 much better than we
could at the time. Many of its Sec
rets have since come to light; per-
haps more will follow. What some
guessed at then, today everybody
knows. The whole affair wears a
very different aspect now from what
it had at the time. Suppose we could
restage the presidential drama of
1904 as we now know it to have been
actually performed? New characters
would figure in the scene. The audi
ence of eight years; ago saw them
dimly fitting near the wings; now

THIRD DISTRICT POLITICS.

With the nomination of Mr. R..
E. Leach of Independence, for Con-
gress on the Bul! Moose ticket, there
are three candidates. for the place,
viz, Mr.. Leach, the Roosevelt can
didate, Mr.. Pickett, the Taft candi-
date and Mr.. Maurice Connolly, the
Wilson candidate. 1t is freely pre-
licted, and admitted by Republicans
and Progressives, that the division
of what heretofore has been the Re
publican vote between Messrs: Leach
and Pickett, will result in Mr.. Con-
nolly's election. If this shall. hap
pen, which seems altogether likely,
i. will be he first time in the his
tory Of the district since it was ger
eymanded to keep the late Col.
Henderson in Congress, that Dem
ocrat shall represent it.
AS between repres entation by a
Taft Republican who not only voted
for the infamous Payne-Aldrich law,
but against the Farmers Free
List Bill, the Parcels Post, and
every other measure designed to
relieve the burden upon consum-
ers, and a Roosevelt candidate
who, if he were elected, would
be as lonely as a church mouse
ic in both branches. Voters this
year, not only Democrats, but others,
will turn to the Wilson candidate as
the man not only likely most effec-
lively to represent the district, but to
be relied upon to represent it faithful
" and well.
Mr., Connolly is a high grade mar
and a business man in modes
way, who never until his nomination
Ifor Congress was identified with poll
tics III any manner. Except for tn
years spent in universities in thi
country and abroad he has all his lif'
| lived in this district.

Maj. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, retired,
comes out in strong letter oppos-
ing Roos evelt, charging him as being
.'the most colossal fraud that this
country has ever produced"
Gen. Miles finds in the present
campaign a question whether the old
time institutions shall be preserved
or whether they shall be replaced by
visionary theories, impracticable
ideas, and the concentration OF all
political power with the control OF all
public and private interests, at the
national capital This for the grail
fication of the mad, selfish ambition
Of one man who for years has been
aspiring and intriguing to become
dictator"
