he has been pro- ally In his conduct
OF the affairs OF the government. With
respect to the republican convention,
1t is proposed, from all accounts, to
influence largely the selection Of the
president and vice president and also
to write a platform which will be IN
the interest Of Germany,
Cover Individual Candidate.
Y From all the information available
it appears that the work being done
is nation wide. 1t is the particular
delegate the pro-Germans are con-
cerned about. They are said to be
placing microscope over the can
didate for the office of district dele
gate or delegate at large and are pass
ing the word down the line to the
voters they. control to support the men
they designate.
That this subterranean work Will
have a powerful effect, particularly
upon the action of the republican con-
vention is expected. The cost is tre-
mendous.. Where the money is COM
ing from has not been traced as yet.
Stand Against Roosevelt.
Some of the standpat leaders who
are bitterly opposed to the nomination
Of Colonel Roosevelt are satisfied that
the pro-German element in the repub-
lican convention will exhaust every
resource to defeat his selection as the
presidential candidate Of the party.

GEORGE C0ss0N WINS
Leads in Straw Ballot in. Hamilton
County-Polls More Than Necessary
IS Per Cent Of Total Vote Cast
Suffrage Also Wins.

Special to Times -Republican.
Webster City, April eff the state
wide republican primary to be held in
Iowa June 3 were to be held today, At
torney General George Cosson, of Des
Moines, would carry Hamilton county.
This statement is made on the author
ity of straw ballot taken by the Web
ster City Journal, and announces IN
its columns today The attorney gem
eral would have just seventeen more
votes than the necessary 35 per cent.
The same ballot also indicates that
woma n suffrage would carry this coun-
ty by an overwhelming vote. And the
most peculiar thing about the woman
suffrage proposition is that the straw
ballots turned in for each candidate
showed a majority for equal suffrage,
indicating that the supporters of each
candidate are favorable to the women
voting.
or course the journals ballot was
open to both men and women, and yet
the indications are that the sentiment
shown correctly indicates the attitude
of Hamilton coutny at this time. There
were a total Of 432 ballots cast for gov
ernor and 456 were cast on the sut-
frage proposition. For governor. the
vote stood: Cosson. 1853: Senator Allen
of Pocahontas, 800; Lieutenant Cover
nor Harding. of Sioux City, 9S: Hon
Carl F. Kuehnle, Of Denison, As.
AS Hamilton county is in Senator
Aliens district. however. it is quite
likely that there may be some changes
to him before primary day. Of the total
number of ballots cast in the Journals
vote ISL would be 35 per cent, so thar
Attorney General Cosson, if the vote
were taken today. would carry the
county by the legal majority. HIS
supporters here predict that he Wild
do this on primary day. The> other
candidates, however. will do much
work here and their friends are conf
dent a better showing will be made
hy them as time goes by.

viii Move Quietly. N
It is the intention of the pro-Ger-

1t is realized this would be hurtful
rather than helpful. The vote at their
command will be cast quietly, and it Is
not likely that any one outside OF the
inner circle will be Informed Of it's dis
position until the day Of the election.
Besides watching the presidential
nomination, the pro-Germans intend
to examine closely the men consid-
cred for the vice presidency.

GUARDS WATCH LEGISLATION.

Senator Chamberlain Complains OF Ae-
tivity Of Military Organization.
Special to Times -Republican
Des Moines, April S.-Iowa National
Guard officers have been deeply in
terested in the army reorganization
bill in congress and Adjutant General
Logan and Col. Smith w. Brookhart
are In Washington now watching this
legislation. Many of the national guard
officials feel that the regular army
men have for many months been
working to have legislation passed
peculiarly Of interest to the standing
army and cutting out the national
guard.
Senator Chamberlain. head of the
committee Of the senate on military
affairs, criticised both the regular
army and the guard for their activity
in these matters a few days ago. He
opposed the Cunlmins plan which car
ried in the senate Monday by a vote of
35 to 30. This amends the army re-
organization bill by creating national
guard section Of the general staff.
Senator Chamberlain threatened that
unless the army officers ceased to at
tempt to inf uence legislation he would
seek to have them disciplined by the
war department. AS to the national
guard, he said, among other things:
Il want to express great regret that
the national guard has seen fit to in
ject itself into the halls Of congress
until it now looks as tho it were a
fight between the regular forces and
the national guard as to which is to
be considered in legislation which af-
fects the whole country"
The national guard men declare
however. that they have been forced &c
defend their own organization as the
program outlined by the regular army
in the way Of Legislation would have
been detrimental to the guard. The
guard men especially objected to hav'
ing all of the general staff Officers

guard would have to serve in case al

cunmins amendment as passed by TIKI
