Hot scrap over Ernest A Moore at Muscatine GOP caucus
In Muscatine county voters failed to instruct delegates to back Ernest A Moore of Cedar Rapids for governor at a Republican state convention held at the Muscatine courthouse. John M Kemble led the attack charging Moore with financial improprieties and class legislation. Senators Titus and Buser defended Moore as the ideal candidate for an era needing solid business leadership. The measure to instruct delegates narrowly failed 124 to 68 after Moore supporters urged a township vote.
