We have it on unquestioned author
ity that the chairman of the republic
can county committee is reporting IN
jamestown that Scott Jewett will be
sold out for another candidate on our

without foundation and is made to
prevent republican friends of Jewett
in tie west part of the county from
giving him their votes.

The rowdies who threw rotten eggs
at Carlisle at his home in Covington
where he was making a speech are
perhaps from Yale, whose class of
rowdy students howled down Mr..
Bryan and prevented his speaking to
the thousands assembled to hear him.
In our government absolute freedom
Of speech is guaranteed, with due re-
sponsibillty for its abuse, and they
who interfere with its exercise are
enemies to our form of government.

We are informed that the Winne-
shiek County bank is notifying promi-
nent free silver men in the northwest
part of the county that they must shut
up that talk or pay their obligations
before election. Men who are lis good
for what they owe as that bank is for
what is due from it to its depositors
are among those notified. OF course
there is no coercion or intimidation in
this, but the fact that the threat is
made is an argument in favor of talk
ing the banks out of the government
business,
