Amendment turmoil and party clashes ripple through Iowa
The column surveys Iowa and neighboring states reacting to an amendment test case appealed to the supreme court. It notes potential saloon closures if the ruling sustains the nuisance clause. It covers Governor Sherman's stance, county politics over supervisor seat validity, Ft Dodge and Webster City political maneuvering, and Democratic opposition to the amendment backed by court challenges. It also touches national political shifts, party reforms, and local court action in Algona over journalist Pettibone. The piece criticizes Democratic defections and hints at health concerns for the president, finishing with upcoming district convention plans in Livermore for the new 14th district alignment.
