reunion of the Republicans and Pro-
gressives throughout the country. His
denomination by substantial ma
jority will be taken as an indication
that his plan has the Endorsement OF
the rank and file of the Republican
party.
The Democrats have contests on for
nearly all the places on the state tick
ct, but the interest within that party
is centered almost wholly in the fight
for the senatorship. Maurice Connol-
" of Dubuque, who represents the
third district in Congress, is the lead
ing candidate for the Democratic nomi-
nation for United States senator. OPP
posed to him is Edwin T. Meredith, a
publisher of agricultural papers in
Des Moines. Meredith has conducted
an active and vigorous campaign, but
the opinion seems to prevail that his
chances of defeating Connolly for the
nomination are rather slight. Connol
ly is an able campaigner is well known
| throughout the state and stands prac
tically strong with the working classes
He is generally looked upon as about
the strongest candidate that the Demo
cratic party could select to make the
race against Senator Cummins.
