KENYON TO ATTEND
STATE CONVENTION
says the Tide Has Set In and 10 In
the Republican Direction for
a Complete Fall Victory.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 30
The Iowa republican state convention
at Des Moines July Is will be much
in the national eye with respects to
the kind OF platform it adopts. This
is the view taken by republican mem
bers OF the Iowa delegation in con.
gress.
It is the opinion Of most Of the re-
publicans on the delegation here that
q strong and vigorous platform ought
to be adopted, in keeping with the
most intelligent progressive republic
can sentiment in Iowa and the coun.
try.
Senator Cummins was asked last
evening what he thought OF the plat
form proposed. He said he believed
and hoped strong and progressive
platform would be adopted. Senator
Kenyon, who returned from Iowa yes
terday takes the view likewise that
the platform should be one that will
appeal to the progressive elements OF
the republican party.
Senator Kenyon said last evening
he intended to go to the state conven.
ton at Des Moines. He added that he
had found much enthusiasm among
republicans in Iowa.
"The tide is all in the republican d.
rection in the state" said Senator
Kenyon. THE general feeling is that
the entire state ticket and the entire
congressional ticket will be elected
