Thoro Is an evident desire on the part of
prominent politicians to avoid any discord
In tho party this year In Pottawattamie
county, and for that reason It Is under
stood that Mr. Cummins will bo conceded
half of tho delegation to the stato conven
tion. Several conferences have beon held In
this city betwoen Mr. Cummins' supporters
and tho politicians who formed what wa
known as tho Oear faction when the sen
atorial fight was on two years ago and who
are now known as antl-Cummlns men. Both
sides have desclalmed any desire to make a
light and exposed themselves anxious to
avoid all discord.
Ardent supporters of Mr. Cumralns claim
he will havo at least 1,000 votes In tho stato
convention, but tho nntls say they nre too
sanguine and thnt they have overestimated
Mr. Cummins' strength In several of tho
counties. It Is conceded that Mr. Cummins
