Is There Movement To Elect Til den Delegation
Dear Sir Your letter asks if a movement exists to elect a Til den delegation from this State to the National Convention I know of no such movement organized or unorganized Our vote is small and our choice should defer to pivotal states prudence and discretion The convention should send twenty two intelligent democrats who will act calmly after gathering information and avoiding premature demands on any candidate Our editors and democrats have shown prudence and unity until nominations are made We should not discuss other suggestions now personal choice is doubtful and Iowa must not block a candidate who can carry pivotal states
