in all the conventions and all but two
Of the men named have been renom-
mated. The elevation of John III. Gear
to the United States senate left an open
field in the First district and Hon. ). Nj.
Clark was selected to retain the district
in the Republican column and he will
do it, In the Second district G. M.
Curtis, of Clinton, was nominated to
redeem the district now misrepresented
by Walter l. Hayes. He is veteran
Republican and has fought its battles
for many years, but this year is the
first time his name hasappeared on the
National ticket as a candidate for of
fee
The issues in this campaign are OF a
national character, involving the ques-
tions of tariff, sound financial system
and sound money and the proper en-
forcement of all laws in all states to all
the people alike where a state will
not protect its citizens in all jnst right
the general government must.
The opinions of the men on the Re-
publican ticket this year are well
known. They have assisted in prov
ing to the country that the Democratic
party was unequal to the demands
made upon it by the country. The
Democratic party is a party divided
against itself We give this week the
entire congressional ticket and hope
the numerous readers of THE Iowa
STATE BYsTANDER in the vorious dis
tricts will do their duty by each candi-
date. 1t is a duty each one owes to his
state, his country, his home and his
fellow citizens. This is not the year
for scratching tickets.

Fashion Notes.

New parasols are made of insertion
and silk, with full ruffies.
Double skirts are seen on some OF
the new costumes. An extremely
ugly one is made in points that ex-
tend almost to the hem of the skirt.
One model is of thin material, the
overski.'t portion being of lawn.
Every br~ .th of wind tosses the long,
stringy po.uts about and suggests
many dangers in the way of getting
caught as one goes about
Bathing costumes occupy the atten-
tion of many of the fashionables. A
novelty is made of bright red serge,
with sleeves and waist trimmed with
white A white sash with embroid-
cred and fringed ends is knotted about
the waist
The Figaro jacket of embroidery or
lace is worn with dresses of all sorts.
A modification of this style, which
really amounts to trimming. shows
the Jacket fronts with sections of the
material merely meeting over the
shoulders.
Pointed waists are growing in favor,
and many of them have soft folds of
the material or of some contrasting
fabric around the lower edge of the
bodice, with bow, buckle or rosette
to finish the point in fropt

Mr.. f. j.. Matthews, of the Bon
durant Times was welcome caller at
this Office. He has had charge of the
Times less than a year and he has made
a splendid newspaper out of it, show
ing what hard work and intelligent eff
fort will do in giving the people of that
city good paper. He takes care of the
interests of the Republican party in
that part of the county. He has an ex-
cellent printing Office and a very liberal
advertising patronage. We were glad
to meet him. He is being visited by
his brother: Last week Mr.. Matthews
announced his intention of removing
his paper to Des Moines, where he will
establish new weekly publication.
His departure will be a great loss to
Bondurant and an equal gain to this
city. He is hard working and con-
scientious newspaper man. and we hope
success will follow him.

According to a Democrats definition

According to Democrats definition
colored man is a slave to party just SO
long as he is Republican, but when
he ceases to be Republican and joins
the Democratic party he becomes polit-
ically free man. 1t does not matter
whether he can give good and substan-
tial reasons for the change or not We
have met a few, very few, colored Dem
ocrats. and we have not known one Of
them to give reason for his change of
heart. He relies on excuses for such
changes, and will not attempt to back
his belief by the written or unwritten
records of the two great political
parties.

A Beautiful shade Hat.

Her last years gingham gown was
made over this season with embroid1
cred frills ana insertion. 1t was very
much up to date, and quite satisfac-
tory when finished. And there was a
piece of gingham left over for which
she had no use.
On first thought it seemed destined
for the rag bag, but in the end it was
converted into fashionable shade
hat for her small daughter. The
gingham was finely shirred to form
the brim of the hat and sewed to a

The colored citizens of Weso Virginia
lynched white man recently. This
fact does not change our position. We
do not believe in lynch law no matter
who are the perpetrators or who are
the victims of mob violence. We stand
for the proper enforcement of the law.
Lynch law is dangerous thing and no
man can tell what the outcome will be
if it allowed to continue.

Senator Blair introduced resolution
in the senate to investigate the lynch

States. The resolution was quickly re-

has no desire to investigate this ques.

tit OF those who need them
A Miss Dunlap who seems to be a
wise person, offers the following ad-
vice:
Don't adopt the latest mode,
Don't trail your dress upon the road,
Don't ever lace your waist too tightly,
Don't wear a boot or glove unsightly,
Don't wear thing that needs repair,
Don't, please, forget to brush your hair,
Don't ever wear too large check,
Don't show too much OF snowy neck.
Another student says:
Don't be slave to fashion, but
rather make fashion your handmade.
Don't follow fashion blindly to
any of her extremes; she has way
of laughing in her sleeve at fools OF
her own creating.
Don't think because your neighbors
bonnet is becoming to her, it will nee
cssarily be becoming to yourself.
Don't 60 in for quantity SO much as
quality in dress. One well made gown
is worth half dozen ill-fitting ones
Don't forget that the dress OF sweet
seventeen is no longer becoming to
the woman of forty.
Don't neglect the accessories OF
dress; untidy gloves, unshapely shoes,
will destroy the effect of the most
charming toilet
Don't unless you are possessed OF
great powers Of self-restraint) expose
yourself to the temptation OF cheap
sales.
Don't, above all things, forget that
you are woman; she is far more at
tractive when seen in the flowing dra-
peries that centuries of use have made
her own than when masquerading as a
man.

the Democratic party has done even
that much is indeed consoling.
THAI these distinguished representatives
of our peerless state have fulfilled every
trust, stirred the blood of manhood and
inspired the forces Of patriotism while
at their post of duty in Washington.
Miss Winnie Davis, daughter of the
notorious rebel president, jeff Davis,
and the Daughter of the Southern
Confederacy, /" now living in Colorado
Springs, Colo, where women are voters,

feel elated. Think of the influence for
good her action will bring about among
