(From 'a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, July 20. (Bpeclal.)-The re
publican state convention today was far
from being as proline in .interesting fea
tures aa some of - the conventions of the
party at other times. It was a good deal of
a party love feast, a gathering to jolly up
the members and to applaud the national
convention, a day for reviewing the achieve-,
menta of the party, for congratulation on
the ticket and for harmonising difference
which have appeared in the party In the
state.
The ticket selection was one of the easiest
on record. Never before In tho history of
the party had Ave unanlmoua renomlna
tlons been accorded state officers. It was a
tribute to the confidence which the party
has In its selected officials that no opposi
tion appeared to them at thla time. Th
only contest was on one office, where the
present Incumbent had positively refused
to be a candidate for a second term. Three
of the state officials got third terms Secre
tary of State W.B.Martin of Adair county.
State Treasurer Gilbert B. Qilbertson of
Winnebago and Charles W. Mullan of
Blackhawk. Chief Justice Horace E Dee
iner of Montgomery county, who has had
a full term and nearly all of another, was
given unanimous renOmlnatlon. In like
manner Beryl F. Carroll of Davis, who Is
serving hla first term as auditor of state,
got a second term with hearty enthusiasm.
For railroad commissioner a fine field of
candidates had appeared They were N.
S. Ketchum of Marshalltown, Dr. Frank
Porterfleld of Cass,' Chris Ottosen of Hum
boldt, Owen Lovejoy' of Greene, : Edward
Sits of Clay and Welcome Mowry of Tama.
The .fight between these had Waxed warm
for some time. Dut all In good nature. It
had been evident for some time that Mr.
Ketchum was In the lead', ;buitj there,. wag
much work done here! , k' ".
.The selection of presidential electors was
made with very , little effort. . .There were
no contests In the caucuses and all district
electors were chosen by 'acclamation. The,
caucuses were held In the morning.
Standpatter Gala One.
In making up the state central committee
the standpatters made a gain In one dis
trict, securing the Fourth, where they
elected R. O. Woodward of Fayette county.
with on majority over J. O. Hempel of
Clayton and J. H. Howland of Cerro Gordo.
In the Second district the revisionists
elected J. W. McCoy of Clinton over George
Swords of Johnson and Arthur Huffman
of Muscatine. In the Third district J. 8.
Stevens was elected' o succeed Burton
Sweet. Committeemen - R. H. . Spence,
George Scott and Asmls Boysen were re
elected. The state committee reorganised
by e'ectlng Mr. Spenc chairman for tho
fourth time, with Mr. Scott . as vice chair
man and George Estabrook as secretary.,
In the Sixth district-a contest was pre
cipitated between the factions In, selecting
a committeeman on resolutions. George

Calls for Cummins.
It waa near the conclusion of the con
vention that the climax came when tho
convention demanded that Governor Cum
mins be heard. The resolutions had been
read and at mention' of the governor the
crowd rose and shouted. The ovation was
continued wildly until th' governor re
sponded.' ye did so In a few words. He
said he hud atated when the convention
met here a few weeks, ago that he waa
under the weather physically and polit
ically, but hoped he would soon be hot
ter. The better day has come and he
thanked the convention for showing It.
Ho Wanted to say that he stood upon the
platform and that he endorsed every word
of the able speech of the temporary chair
man. , . . .

sis and enthusiasm waa fully up to the
past experiences of the party. There was
the usuul muslo and decorations. Chair,

der. Before this event Senator Allison
and othera appeared at the bos and they

plause waa redoubted. Jno convention waa
In an entirely happy mood and everybody
was r!ven his share of attention.
Colonel W. P. Hepburn of Clarlnda was
made temporary chairman, He spoke at
length reviewing the history and achieve
ments of th party. He ook hold of th
tariff question and . indicated that he was
heartily glad that ever, republican in
the stat waa In perfect harmony with
the platform, lie rend from the plat
forms of the party and declared that th
party had not changed, but la fight where
It has been all along. He declared for
protection and for reciprocity, but so
carefully worded his spoken speech that
he won applause from the great majority
of the convention, which waa composed
of revisionists.

BONESTEEL, S. D July . As tho tlm
for closing tho registration for tho Rooo
bud land opening draws near th excite
ment Increases. Two and three sections of
each passonger train are bringing thou
sands of belated but hopeful aspirants. Th
outgoing trains are also dally taking away
hundreds of those who have already been
placed upon the lists.
Considering the excitement attendant
upon tho last days of registration there
ha been more or less trouble. An attempt
waa made last night to rob a farmer. Four
thugs attacked him, but he made such
excellent use of hla lists that they fled.
Later they returned, armed with empty
beer bottles, and renewed the attack.
Again the farmer, who was a strapping,
strenuous, elderly man, proved too much
for them. He seised a couple of the bottles
and felled two of his assailants, where
upon the four ran and were not captured.
Ordinary street brawls are of frequent oc
currence, but nothing serious has occurred
during tho past few days.
