Every Republican will, of coul.e, ad-
NIT that each of the Republican candi-
dates for congress should BIO elected by
good round majorities, but it is barely
possible that some may think that this
result will come about anyhow, even if
they DO not take the trouble to go to the
polls and vote. There can be no ques-
ton that this is Republican year and
that victory is in the air for the stand
ard bearers of that party, yet the best
way to make this result certain is for
every Republican to vote, then they
will have the satisfaction of knowing
that all is right and they can go to their
homes without waiting for the votes to
be counted, assured of glorious victory.
Confidence is good thing. 1t is all
right in its place and the place for q
display Of confidence is when you are
doing all i'll your power for the success
of the party and know that all the Re-
publicans in the state are actuated by
the same idea. Then it is right to be
absolutely certain that the victory will
be yours.
There are other times when conf
dence is the death of the party ticket.
There was an election in the First con-
gressional district not so many years
ago when the Republicans said that
there could be no question but that their
nominee, who is now one of our hon
ored United States senators, would be
elected. Election day was one Of those
imperial autum days which we have in
Iowa, and so the farmers went into the
cornfelds instead of going to the polls.
The next morning they were astonished
to learn that the candidate of their
party had gene down in defeat and the
very thing that they thought was inn
possible had happened. When the re-
turns were all in it was found that the
Republican ticket in that district had
been defeated by an average of four
votes TO the precinct. A little more
figuring served to show that an average
of from to 10 Republicans in each pre-
cinct stayed away from the polls that
day and excused themselves to their
political consciences with the plea that
''my vote is only one and Gear will be
elected anyway" This is only one in.

of confidence when you do not do any

Do not let it be said after the battle
is over that any congressional district
in Iowa was lost because the Republic
ans failed to do their duty at the polls.
