(From a Staff Correspondent)
DES MOINES, la.. Dec. 31. (Special.)
A great deal of political maneuvering haa
been Indulged in the last few weeks In
Iowa with regard to state and national
politics. That which haa been most con
spicuous la the fact that nearly all the
leaders of the republican party who have
taken a hand are saying quietly that the
main thing Is for the party to avoid a
hitter fight If It Is to win In Iowa next
year.
A great many of the republicans desire
that a delegation be sent to the national
convention that will be conservative and
