REPUBLICAN, STATE coNveN.
TON.

To the Republican Electors of the
State of Iowa:-There will be dele
gate convention of the republicans of
Iowa held in the city of Dubuque, Ia,
on Thursday. September l, 1898, at II
O'Clock a. NJ. for the purpose of placing
in nomination candidate fer secretary
of state, treasurer of state, auditor of
state, Judge of the supreme court, re-
porter OF the supreme court, attorney
general, railroad commissioner to fill
vacancy. and for the transaction OF such
other business as may properly come
before a republican State convention.
All voters OF the state believing in
republican principles and who indorse
the policy OF the republican party are
invited to unite under this call for the
election OF delegates to SAID convention
The ratio of representation will be as
follows:
One delegate at large from each
county. and one additional delegate
for each two hundred (20O) votes or
fraction OF one hundred (lOO) or over,
cast for L. M. Shaw, republican candi-
date for governor at the election of
1897. 1t is especially recommended
that the several counties of the state
reorganize their county committees at
the convention held for the purpose of
electing delegates to the state conven-
lion. The representation to which the
several counties will be entitled under
| this ca is as fnllnWS.

been done his next care was to see that
every republican was gotten to the
polls. His work was so we'll done that
while other states slumped for Cleye-
land, who was then the sainted head of
the friends (?) of the common people,
Iowa remained firm in the faith.
In succeeding campaigns Mr.. Blythe
was extraordinarily successful although
confronted by still greater obstacles.
But in all the years of his service as
party leader no one could truthfully
accuse Mr.. Blythe of prostituting his
position for'personal gain or the furth-
erance of private ambition. He left
the office poorer financially than when
he went in. He never attempted to in
terfere in legislation unless in some
question where party principle was at
stake and then as the head of the party
he threw himself into the contest to
see that all party pledges were redeem
ell. Mr.. Blythe's strongest element of
success is his honesty and his faithful
ness. The fact that Jim Blythe always
carries himself on the gold standard
plan and that his word is always on a
par with his performance, has gained
for him host of devoted friends in
every nook and corner of Iowa. Mr.
Blythe could easily have obtained any
federal appointment that Iowa could
command, but he preferred and wisely
to take promotion from the hands of
people and from no one else. MIR.
Blythe, with his already wide acquain-
tance and national influence, will make
one of the best and most effective con-
gressmen Iowa has ever had.

Mr.. JAS. Il. Blythe appears to he win.
ming IN his contest for the congress on
al nomination in the 4th District. MIR.
Blythe is in our opinion the highest
type of q politician. His record shows
that a man can be political manager
without dishonesty, without trickery
and without sham. In 1892 Mr.. Blythe
first acted as chairman of the 1epubll-
can state central committee. He was
almost the first of our state chairmen,
to recognize that the chief duties of the
position do not consist in looking wise,
holding mysterious conferences and
fixing up fences for a federal appoint
ment.

energy and thoroughness that must
characterize the successful head of any
large undertaking. The various pro-
blems of TIE campaign we're met and
