DICKINSON VICTORY
SPURS IOWA c. O.P.
Defeatist Spirit VaniShes in
denomination in June
Primary.
BY C. C. CLIFTON.

DES MONIES. Iowa, July Ii
Iowa, at the opening Of the presiden-
tial campaign. is regarded as a doubt
full State by both Democrats and Re-
publicans.
The defeatest spirit which domi-
mated Republicans after the smashing
Roosevelt victory in 1882 disappeared
when United States, Senator L. j.
Dickinson won denomination by
handsome plurality in the June
primary.
Herring Opposes Dickinson.
Dickinson, who received 40.5 per
cent of the total vote cast for himself
and five opponents. and two Republi-
can candidates against him who we're
as outspoken as he against the New
Deal, together polled 81 per cent Of
the Republican primary vote.
His opponent for the senatorial seat
involved in the November election is
Gov. Clyde L. Herring second Demo-
cratic Governor Of Iowa since the
Civil War. The Governor won the
Democratic nomination from Repre-
resentative Hubert Utterback, whose
sole campaign issue was that he is
100 per cent for anything Roosevelt
wants.
The Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor is Lieut.. Gov Nelson G.
KraSchel, who was elected with Her
ring in 1884. Kraschel defeated
Justice Richard F. Mitchell Of the
Iowa Supreme Court in a two-man
race for the Democratic nomination.
The Republican candidate is State
Senator George A. Wilson. who won
his nomination from two opponents.
G. O. p. Margin Not Significance.
The fact that the Republican vote.
in spite of drop of 10000 from 1884.
still was nearly twice as large as the
Democratic vote is of no significance
as to November trend.
In 1882 the Republican primary
vote was 100000, while the Demo-
cratic vote was only $4,000. But in
the Fall Roosevelt carried the State
over Hoover by majority of $4,000
votes.

NEBRASKA c. 0. P.
|. SHOWS STRENGTH
Party Hoping to Come Back
With Landon at Head of
November Ticket.
BY GEORGE F. FISHER.

OMAHA, Nebr., July 11.-Nebraska
Republicans hope to come back" with
Iandon at the head OF the ticket in
November. Evidence Of fighting
strength was shown in the April pri-
mary when they polled total of 139,-
388 votes as against l57,903 Demo-
cratic ballots.
Gov Landon is q prime favorite with
the Cornhuskers, though he was not
widely known, even as neighbor, pre-
vious to the primaries. His name was
written in on the Republican ballots
23,1l7 times. Borah, an official can
didate for presidential preference, re-
ceived 70,240 votes.
The Kansan had come to Lincoln
for an address before the voting in
April. Republican State leaders who
controlled the State delegation at
Cleveland had picked him as a winner
long before April Situated in almost
the same latitude as Nebraska. he
seemed to know this States problems.
Republicans count on this greatly to
bring back the old-time Republican
majority that for years controlled State
politics.
GO. r. Work to Start Early.
The Republican State organization.
with Hugh A. Butler of Omaha ma
tional committeeman, Lyle Jackson OF
Neigh reelected State chairman and
an unusually cohesive State committee
in the background. has announced an
early start for its work.
Robert G. Simmons. former Repre-
sentative from the fifth district, can
didate for United States Senator for
the second time, has In fact had
this years election in mind since he
was defeated two years ago by Ed
ward r. Burke, Democrat.
While President Roosevelt in the
1892 election received 359,082 votes.
a plurality of 157,e05 over Hoover's
20l lit in Nebraska. the situation this
Fall will not be quite the same as 1t
was four years ago.
Democrats Not United.
There will not be the same united
Democratic support that beat a fam
fare for the Presidents first triumph.
Some of the old-time leaders who for
years controlled Democratic policies
will be either missing. silent or openly
critical.
Cold, biting criticism will be ad-
vanced in the ranks Of his former fol-
lowers, which may possibly be over
come by the force of administration
achievements in sponsoring relief in
its many forms. The taxation and
especially the personal platform fea-
lures of the President are bound to
make Nebraska hustings later on q
turmoil.

YOUTH RULES VERMONT
BY w, b, GATES.

BURLINGTON, vt, July IL
Youth is in the saddle in Vermont,
particularly in the Republican party,
and for some weeks before the State
convention the younger voters began
to form organizations and warned the
Old Guard they would seek repre-
sentation at Cleveland.
This infusion of new blood is likely
to restore much of the old-time Re-
publican majority in the State, which
has slumped of late.
The campaign this year in Vermont
viii be waged over the Republican
nomination for Governor at the Sep
tember primary. George D. Aiken Of
Putney, now lieutenant-governor; Col
H. Nelson Jackson of Burlington and

Of the House of Representatives, have

KENTUCKY SENATE
RACE IS LIVELY
Entry Of Chandler.Backed Can
didate Complicates Logan
Campaign.
BY HARRY BLOOM.

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 1l.-By all
odds the high spot in Kentucky poll
tics this year is the race for Demo-
cratic nomination for United States
Senator, an old-fashioned Kentucky
political contest that is already brew
ing resentment and harsh words.
Although five have entered. 1t is act
ually only a three-horse race between
the incumbent, Senator M. M. Logan,
Bowling Green: former Representative
John Young Brown, Lexington. and
former Governor and United States
Senator J. c. w. Beckham. The other
entries, sure to be also rams, are Mont
Walker, Ashland attorney. and DR..
K. N. Salyer, former county Judge OF
Perry County.
Almost until the last moment for
closing the lists it looked like a match
race between Logan and Brown, boLh
Of whom claimed to have the blessing
Of both the National and State admin
istrations. The eleventh-hour entrance
of Beckham, undubitably wearing the
Chandler colors, produced cross-cur-
rents.
On the Republican side there are
also five entries for the senatorial
nomination, but the race really went
begging until party leaders induced
Robert H. Lucas, former executive di-
rector Of the Republican National
Committee, to file for the nomination.
He has the State organizations sup
port and the competition from the
others will prove negligible. The un-
likelihood that q Republican can win
in November was the factor that kept
any outstanding member of the G. O.
P. from offering himself until Mr.,
Lucas threw his hat In the ring.

VOICES OPTIMISM
Republican Primary Vote Is
Highest Since Olson
Regime Started.
BY JERRY VESSELS.

ST. PAUL, Mimi. July lit has
been six long years for the Republicans
in Minnesota and they will sing that
ditty for you with just as much gusto
as the G. o. P. optimists did at Cleve-
land.
The Farmer-Laborites have been
riding high for that period but the
Old Guard sees them riding for fall,
and hard one at that, in the Novem-
Der elections.
They emphasize the fact the Re
publican ticket this year polled the
highest vote at the primaries for the
first time since the Olson forces seized
control OF the State government six
years ago.
Regardless Of the significance of
that development. observers accept as
a more important factor in the cam
paign just getting under way the in
disposition of Gov. Olson. He has
lost considerable weight and after
prolonged treatment at the Mayo
clinic has been living virtually a life
of seclusion at his north woods Sum-
mer home.
Benson Also Is Victor.
Olson was nominated without ef-
fort and Elmer Benson, Olsons
choice as his own successor in the
Governors chair, likewise won handy
in the primaries despite sharp bat
tie staged by Mangus johnson, for
mer United States Senator.
johnson, attacking what he termed
Clique control of the party, launched
what started out as stable party
| revolt last Spring. The uprising
gradually petered out as prominent
party men stepped back into the reg
ular ranks. and Benson was nomi-
mated.
Benson, until recently, an obscure
country banker, was appointed to
the United States Senate last Win
ter to succeed Senator Tom Schall
fatally hurt in a Maryland traffic
accident. His term expires in Janu-
ary.
Whether Senator Henrik Shipstead

itinerary is yet to be seen.
Opposing Olson for the senatorshiI
will be Representative Theodore Chris
tianson. three times Governor Of th'
State and q power in State politics fol
many years.
Christianson Easy Winner.
Like Olson, Christianison was nomi
mated with but little opposition in tht
Republican column. The senatorial
race is rounded out by dapper, youth
full Patrick Delaney. the Democratic
entry, q political unknown.
The Democrats, who complete Min
nesotas unique political triangle, have
been embroiled in bizarre dispute
the outcome of which is not yet ap-
parent. The ultimate result viii
strongly affect the November run-oh
although the Democrats themselves
have very little chance Of electing any
of their own candidates.

WASHINGTON SPLIT
INTO THREE CAMPS
Commonwealth Group Swing
to Third Party Hope
of G. 0. p.
BY JAMES DE X. BROWN.

SEATTLE, July ll.-As this State
enters upon the 1885 campaign it finds
itself divided into three distinct camps
Democratic, Republican and Com
monwealth Federation. This latter
group, while nominally affiliated with
the Democratic party, is at the same
time politically independent, and may
before the campaign warns up switch
to any third party movement which
will agree to support a production
for use" program.
1t is because Of this uncertainty that
the Democratic leaders are not as con-
fldent today as they were few weeks
ago over the possibilities Of Washing
ton being held in the Roosevelt column
There is q strong possibility that
the Commonwealth Federation. with
such Townsendite support as it may
draw, will work its way into the third
party movement with q State as well
as a national ticket. However, many
of the Commonwealth leaders are
strong Roosevelt supporters. This Ii
especially true Of the labor people
members of organized labor. who are
afiliated with the Federation.
Washington is pension conscious.
The State will be called on to vote
for State old-age pension of not les.
than 500 a month next November
This initiative measure was filed with
approximately 100000 signatures o.
registered voters out Of the $4,000 ir
the State. The old-age pension spon.
sors, and this is true Of virtually all
of them, will follow DR.. Townsend
irrespective of where he goes. These
votes represent the controlling factor
in Washington politics, and If they
should split away to . third party
movement, it means the Landon-Knox
ticket will be given a rather substan-
tial plurality next November.
The so-called left wing Democrats
composed largely Of the same groups
responsible for the election Of the
present congressional and senatorial
delegations, have taken over complete
control of the Democratic party ma
chinery in the State. The leaders
however, are frankly asserting they
are not bound to follow the national
Democratic program or candidates
but will use the party machinery a
they desire to assure the election oi
their own candidates on any ticket.
There Is growing dissatisfaction
with w. P. A. and other Federal activ-
tiles in the agricultural sections, but
this goes only to the administrative
forces and for some reason does not
touch President Roosevelt.
This year. even with only two tickets
in the field. the State IS . whole
at this writing would give Roosevelt
the majority vote. would unseat two
or more Democratic Congressman and
would undoubtedly select q Repub-
lican for Governor, splitting the rest

c. OF. OF STATE
SEEN REV|TALRED
Foes Hope to Avert Break
Between Governor and
Senator.
BY L. r. CONNOR.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 11.-These
are Republican days in Ohio. The
echoes of the Cleveland convention
still are reverberating from the Ohio
River hills. The cheers from the
noisiest and most enthusiastic State
convention in 40 years (say the old
timers) still are ringing In the ears OF
State Chairman Ed Schorr and every
county committeeman. And all the
while the Democratic chiefs in every
State which gave President Roosevelt
a plurality of only $4,000 over Mr..
Hoover in 1882 are wondering when
Is the best time to gather their sup
porters together for the State con-
vention.
Their day is coming, of course. In
q State like Ohio, where the inde-
pendent vote, which swings first one
way then another, and which deter
mines in every presidential year where
Ohio's 26 electoral votes will go, they
have every reason to look forward to
an opportunity of capturing them for
President Roosevelt next November.
Democrats In Harmony.
All is harmony on the surface with
the Democrats, an unusual situation
for them. That Is. practically all Il
harmony Gov. Davey is just home
from Philadelphia, where he gave one
OF the 81 varieties of seconds to Presi-
dent Roosevelt's denomination. He
and Postmaster General Farley, who
rumor has 1t, first tried to prevail on
three others to make that seconding
address, apparently have patched up
their differences which have existed
ever since the Governor dared Relief
Administrator Harry Hopkins to come
to Ohio and submit to arrest for
slander.
There is one rift in the lutte, how.
ever. AS the Republicans met tt
adopt platform and prepare for the
coming battle. Ohio's attorney general
John w. Bricker, the Republican can
didate for Governor, threw a little
bombshell which might cause some
trouble in Democratic circles. He reae
q letter written some time previously
by Davey, in which the latter charac
terized Senator Donahey as an 'igno'
ramus," "a selfish individuaist," ane
as being so totally lacking in genera
knowledge that he hadn't any idee
where Europe might be. He included
in the letter also some side remarks
rather sighting in character, abou
the abilities of Alfred E. Smith o.
New York.
Republicans Harmonious.
The Republicans, on the other hand
are as harmonious as usual. Brickeri
spirited address at the State conven
ton has been acclaimed as the bes
of his long and successful career IL
public life.
The contagious enthusiasm Of Obi
Republicans for their cause this yea
is demonstrated by the unusual pro
cedure followed at the State conven
ton, when a resolution was adopte'
inviting all Democrats who are, frs
of all, loyal Americans" to join witt
them in 1896 in the fight to preserv
the Nation. I'VE do not ask them,
the resolution continued, ito abandon
their party permanently. They can
in fact, serve their party best by join
ing with us this one time for th'
preservation of American ideals ant
constitutional government in Stat
and Nation"
