Dies Moines, July 11.-Any observer
OF the doings at the progressive party
state convention held this week must
have been impressed with the fact that
In the absence Of directing agents sent
from Wall street, and left to the rather
haphazard initiative of the 200 dele
gates from the various counties, the
party took a position distinctly diner
emf from any before taken. The con-
yention was different in many ways
from its predecessor OF two years ago
or from the secre, conferences held
last winter. 1t is worth while as
matter of history, to point out some OF
these differences.
The convention will go into history
as frs, of all large gatherings to scent
the inevitable issue of the 1915 cam
paisn. as it will develop should the
plans Of the progressive party men
carry. and the conflict OF that year be
between Wilson and Roosevelt. This
was suggested in the speech of the
temporary chairman and later in the
speech of the ST. Louis Judge: and It
turned up IN the platform in thai
clause which save credit TO Roosevelt
Ior the Panama cana! diiO USHo~iiNso
the Wilson treaty as un-American and
an unworthy attempt of the present
administration to discreoit a previous
administration. The plank in the plat
form is cautiously worded. II may not
attract much attention, But speakers
referred to the subject frequently. and
always in tone of bitterness and in
tense feeling.
II was evident that those who had
thought about it. or considered the
far-rea ching effect OF this new national
controversy involving national honor

see how readily the issue thus made
may be the making or unmaking OF
party plans and candidates.. Tnere
were references in the speeches to the
S25, 100000 "blackmail' and
the counter-charge Of "pilfering' from
a defenseless nation. Where seemed
to be, in what was said and done,
recognition of the fact that with Wood
row and Teddy facing each other in
a national campaign, here would be
the field of discussion. At any rate 1t
was the only new thing of national
character which came out Of the con-
vention.
The next conspicuous feature of the
convention. in contrast with the pre-
liminaries as sought to be arranged
last winter at the various conferences
called by the eastern managers, was
different attitude toward the senatorial
situation in Iowa There was much
less of disposition to make Cummins
the sole issue. fewer words used in
denunciation. For instance, there was
no speech like that of Mr.. Basher. on
previous occasion when he passed
In review before the Wall street CEN
sors as to his availability as a candi-
date, in which he devoted practically
all of it to denouncing Cummins and
trying to show he is not and never
was a progressive. Nothing of the sort
this time. Judge Nortoni, of st. Louis,
did not follow the lead of Davis and
other national organizers" who

others he named. He said frankly that
"Iowa has been d reasonably progress
sive state and referring to the Massa-
chusetts campaign he said the repupii-
cans sent into that state the respect
able element Of the party. such men
as Cummins. La Toilette and Borah.
That was quite different from any pre-
vious talk heard from any outsider.
1t is true, however, that there was
left some trace of the educational
work done by the national organizers
in their effort to organize the state
against Cummins' as their Official
organ repeatedly stated 1t last winter.
For instance, Mr.. Patton. candidate for
congress in the Sixth district declared
that "Cummins is the greatest stumo-
ling block to our political progress In
Iowa" And Mr.. Crane, who has
started new progressive organ for
Iowa at Odebolt, said he believed
Patton was right when he pointed out
the great stumbling block to our party
in Iowa-Cummins." But both OF these
men at least partially explained their
savage attitude toward Cummins by
declaring themselves to be radical pro-
hibitionists.
The simple recital of those outcrop :
ping facts of the convention makes IL
easier to understand why and how u
came to appropriate the platform OF
the prohibition political party and la!
the foundation for amalgamation along
that line. Much of the opposition t.
Cummins in the republican party was
born of the old fight over the liquor
question. Perhaps Schenk can get some
votes OF republicans looking for an ex-
cuse to get away from the party nomi-
nee. But the plank denouncing .'the
Wilson administration for Its Colon
bian treaty of rebuke to Roosevelt, in
dicated final break with tins
democratic party. There is to be nc
more smuggling up to the democratic
