(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. June 2S.-(Speclal.) The
friends of Governor Cummins set but today
to plan for a big reception to him on the
occasion of his return from the national
convention at Chicago. They declare that
the fact that the convention followed, to
some extent, the linee which he laid down
In hi resolutions presented to the Iowa
delegation, on Monday as desirable for the
national platform was a decided victory
for him over his opponents in Iowa, who
planned to suppress all reference to tariff
changes and to restrict reciprocity to non
competitive products only." They therefore
propose a demonstration when the gov
ernor returne home. He Is expected back
In a few days.
governor Cummins Is out in an author
ized interview on the platform, which lndl
catea that he will at once enter Into the
campaign aa a most enthusiastic supporter
of the platform and will: be prepared to
speak often in the campaign la this and
other states.
AS a whole, said Governor Cummins, the
platform Is admirable. It is as strong and
persuasive a statement of the title of the
republican party to the confidence of the
people as I have ever heard. With respect
to the planke on the tariff and reciprocity,
the subject of discussion In national af
fairs in recent .years, It IS left absolutely
open; that Is to say. It leaves those who
believe In a modification of the tarlnr
schedules at perfect liberty to urge their
views, and with respect to reciprocity, It
leaves those who favor reciprocal arrange
ments for the extension of ourforelgn trade
In either .competitive or non-competitive
products free to advocate their opinions.
I assume that no republican nor any
other sane and loyat Amertean has ever
favored a reciprocal arrangement that
would Injure agriculture, labor or any in
dustry. , .
It Is, therefore, fair to say that as re
gards the general struggle between the
stand-patters" and the followers of the so
called "Iowa Idea," the platform is not
a defeat for either.
When, however,. , the platform Just
adopted la compared with the one an
nounced a few weeks ago In my own state,
it Is obvious that we have won a distinct
victory. The fight in Iowa covered two
points. The 'stand-patter" refused to
recognise the desirability of revision at
any time or under any circumstances. The
national platform does reeognUe it. The
Iowa platform expressly confines reciproc
ity to non-competitive things: she national
platform contains no such restriction.
I would have been glad to have seen
these disputed questions settled at this
time, but as that was Impossible. I am glad
that the way Is still, open' for their proper
settlement In the future.
- The republicans of the countrv can all
stand comfortably upon the platform and
can work enthusiastically for the suocese
of the republican ticket, Iowa will give
Roosevelt 100,000 majority and will elect a
solid republican delegation to 'congress.
Drainage a 'KeoeeeAty., ,
Reports to the grain - men and dealers
from those portion of the.. State where
drainage is essentia., indicate- that while
there -hear been no general), overflow of
farm-land like iastjryear and the year
before, the lowlvrias.iavrso-ret that there
are thousands of acree lying waete which
have-In the past, prabuoed -enormous crops.
This ' is true' in thV tbrthern, ewampy
counties and in the Western counties along
the wide Missouri (1rlver . bottoms. Lest
yeaV there were about 40,000 acres over
flowed in Monona, , and Harrison-counties,
and some of it wa overfloWed three sepa-
rate time, so that crops were a total
failure. This - year .there has been no
overflow, but the land is 0 wet that cul
tivation la impossible save on the highest
portions. " ' '' ' '
"We have plena niade for a great deal
of canal work in these "two counties of
the etate," said Senator El.' L. Hogue of
Blencoe while here. "There are five drain
age districts being surveyed in Harrison
and two In Monona. These districts will
take in a large share of the lowland along
the Little Sioux river. The surveying Is
being done now. I have the greatest faith,
however, in the big canal which will be
virtually the straightening of the Sioux,
river. The plan Is for a canal or series
of them covering a distance of thirty-six
mile of , the river: .course. - Portions ;of
the river bed will be used, and then at
places ths canal will he cut through terri
tory from a half mile to three miles away
from the present chdnnel. The thirty-six
miles will be reduced . to seventeen, or
nearly one-half aa long. This will greatly
inerease the speed In the river and make
good drainage. . Then there will be many
lateral ditches to connect up all the coun
try. It is a great project"
A samps o lb experience in. northern
Iowa is In Winnebago county, where drain
age districts are contemplated 'which, k if
oompleted, will cover more than half of
the entire county. Only one drainage dis
trict haa been perfected, but petitions sre
being circulated fdr four "others,' In which
there would be ditches aggregating sev-eaty-flve
mile in length. ': Two of these
are revivals of old project dropped be
cause of th discovery that the old law
was lhegal. This is a fair sample of what
I necessary In .the northern, .ewampy
counties and the operation of the new
drainage law. u

all efforts of the distracted groom and the

planation of Mrs. Johnson's mysterious
disappearance. One is that she Is suffering

husband for . a former lover, i who is said
