Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1896-06-16


THE DEBORAH REPUBLICAN struck
the key note of the congressional situ-
alton when it said this district has been
a cypher in congress for the last twen-
ty years.-MasOn city Globe-DemOcrat.
Mark you! We said the district
not the member. In view of this win
ter's great achievement, MI. Updegraff
has lifted it out of cipherhoOd. To re-
tire him now will be to regulate the
district back to cipherdom. And if
Mr.. Blythe supplants him, he will do
amazingly well If in four years he again
lifts the district to where it now stands
in utility and prominence. That he
could expect to do more is presump-
ton not warranted by anything in his
past career. Therefore it is quite true
this paper struck "the key note" The
real question is whether the district
shall go on and hold an attained posi-
ton, or go back to the kindergarten
rank.-DecOrah Republican.
We would like to ask Bro. Bailey
who has made the standard of the
district what it is? He admits that it
is the member in congress, and then
says that it is the district, and not the
member that is a cipher.
The foregoing does not agree with
his article of April 9th, i'm which he
leads the people to believe that the
Fourth district is still a "poii-
teal cipher" but if Mr.. Updegraff
could have just one more term he
would lift the district out of the "slOugh
of despond" and place it on solid
foundation with all the political bosses
holding their much coveted postoffices
and other political plums. Then, alas,
poor old "Honest Tom" would be sunk
into Oblivion. And they would will
ingly place the district in cipherdom
or any other place just so their
greedy appetities were satisfied. If
Mr.. Updegraff is the only man that
can represent the Fourth district in
congress, what, oh what, win become
of this district when Honest Tom" is
no more? IfMr. Bailey's theory is
correct, would it not be good policy for
us to commence to educate some bright
young man at once? Mr.. Updegrati
has served eight long years in congress-
and if it is going to take that long to
educate new member, we should
have commenced long ago.
Taking things on their own theory,
we cannot see any good reason why
the Hon. James E. Blythe should not
be the nominee this fall.

ONE glance at the columns of the
Decorah Journal, "a democratic paper)
of June 9th, should be enough to con-
vince any good honest republican that
the Hon. James f. Blythe is the pro-
per person to receive the nomination
this fall by the republican party to
represent the people of the Fourth
District in congress.

SUCH assistant democratic papers as
the New York Herald having failed to
keep the silver democrats from con-
trolling the Chicago convention are
now trying to make the platform for
the republican convention. Easy
gentlemen, the republicans will attend
to that little matter themselves.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1896-06-16

THE republican party is greater than
the ambition of any one man. A place
upon the national ticket has never
been declined, and it will not be. The
ticket that is nominated at st. Louis
will be the ticket that will be elected
in November, unless death shall pre-
vent it.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1896-06-16

OF course if Mr.. Cleveland desires
to vote the republican ticket this year
he has right to do so, but it is certain
that no special inducement will be
offered him.
