day. 1t was said at the opening that
most of the contests 10 be fought out
in the district caucuses had been set
tied amicably and that arrangements
were made to rush thru harmony
slate, especially with regard to the new
state central committee.
There was little delay in calling the
convention to order, as district caucuses
held delegates during the early morn
ing hours When the convention was
called to order it was predicted that
the convention would be devoid of fac
tional troubles, that Havner and Guiher
would be named candidates for attor-
ney general and railroad commission
er, respectively, and that the platform
would contain strong prohibition
plank and a declaration for good

were ready for submission to the res.
olutions committee as soon as it is
formed. 1t was said to be virtually GER
tain that this committee will ratify

form will include plans providing for
prohibition and good roads, with en-
phass placed on a proposition to leave

as candidate for attorney general owe:
George H. Wilson, of Des Moines. +,
was said that Mr.. Harding had thrown
his support to Havner for political rea-
sons and the other leaders, many OF
whom favored Wilson personally, were
subordinating their interests to what
they considered the good of the party
and would vote for Havner. The resul,
of the balloting for the nomination

this afternoon. WILL in the opinion OF
leaders be very close. Proponents OF

London, July 19.-The Germans re-
captured a portion Of Delville and OBJ
tanned a footing in the north outskirts
OF Longueval. the war office an,
nounced today.
The announcement says:
The enemy's attack last night, the
beginning of which already has been
reported, was directed against our new
positions east OF Bazentin village.
Very large German 1einforcements
have been started for the attack.
After an intense artillery fire the as
sault was delivered in dense masses
about $3.50 in the afternoon. The
fighting kept up all night and was
violent in Deville wood.
After suffering heavy losses the
enemy succeeded in recapturing Del
vile wood and also attained q footing
In the northern outskirts Of Longueval
The struggle in these aseas" is still
violent.
ELSEWHERE, the attack. including
three assaults on the Waterloo farm,
completely broke down under our fire.
"On the remainder Of our front
there were no events Of Importance"
Weather Handieaps Operations.
Adverse weather is compelling lull
in the fighting on the western front
Military critics taking stock of the
situation are surprised by the large
captures Of heavy armament which
General Sir Douglas Haig. the British
commander-in-c chief announced. They
point out how British attacks have
been pressed with greatest rapidity in
order to give the Germans no time to
organize for the defenses.
Also, as was evidenced by the with
drawa1 of the British from the Four
eaux wood, where they had reached
the German third line, General Haig
wisely resisted the temptation to hold
onto that point. 1t would have meant
severe fighting, with probably heavy
losses.
Evidence received from the front
seems to prove that obstacles are like
ly to be less difficult as the entente
allies advance.
With regard to the eastern front,
General Won Linsingen's retirement
across the Lipa is considered by critics
as removing the last serious obstacle
to the advance Of the Russians toward
Lemberg.
Russians Enter Hungary.
