disposition of the delegations is a prop
osition based upon fact. now several
months old. AS long ago as last July 1t
was well understood in the states of the
middle west that the main object OF
the progressives was to enroll as many
progressive delegates as possible to
the national convention.
At that time, according to the under
standing. it mattered not in whose
names the delegates should come. as
long as they were progressive. Sen
ator Cummins took a broad attitude on
the question. Naturally. being human.
should be for him. yet he was big
enough and broad enough TO agree that
they should come under another mans
pennant, if it followed the banner.
So. it was known that the thing
to do was to elect progressive del
egates to the convention from Iowa.

to let Borah bring in Idaho and whatever
else he might be able to grab off. which
at that time seemed to be limited to
Idaho. in view of the control of, Smoot
over Utah and Warren over Wyoming.
and so 10 roll up a goodly number of
progressive Qele8aleS.
The later suggestion that at present
there is dispute as to whom these ag-
gregated delegations are TO go is said
to strike some of the old guard repub-
licans as being very interesting, indeed
Disconcerting to the Regulars.
The disconcerting feature of the sit
uation to the regular republicans is
that this little family discord among
the progressives should come at time
when the regulars as a body are try
ing to set together with the pro
gressives as body. There is no
thought of candidate or personality
with the regulars, it is declared. They
are of open mind al the present. They
have a CULVER full of arrows and would
like the progressives to aid in select
ing the one to strike the bulfs-eye.

project is afoot. and moving forward,

liberate among themselves as to who
shall carry the guerdon OF the pro-
gressives while the big banner waves
at the head of the column has. given
