Prohibition Convention Defeats Hamilton Platform Push
Des Moines reports that friends of John J. Hamilton failed to force his platform at the prohibition state convention. The plank calls for 93 constitutional prohibitions, direct election, labor arbitration, tariff reform, and a recall. Delegates O. D. Ellett and K. W. Brown were named national committeemen from Iowa. Democratic primary results show Claude R. Porter leading for senator and Fred E. White leading for governor, with Allison narrowly ahead of Cummins in Republican tallies. Other notes cover state rifle team selections, union label repeal, and ongoing efforts by churches to unite Disciples of Christ with Baptist groups.
