4 SHOT At RT;PJ-RI.IcANs

Republican voters should remember
that the speech which raised the great
est amount OF applause at the last
democratic county convention was that
in which the speaker said. Vote the
ticket straight; sou don't have to
scratch; the republicans do that for u.s.
The republican who scratches his tick
ct is without honor in his own party
and the Laughing stock Of the opposi-
tion.-Newton Record.
There is an excellent point in the
above that is worth while remembering
every day in the campaign. Democrats
in many localities in Iowa are in the
minority and their only hope Of sue
cess is in inducing republicans to vote
their ticket. Some of their leaders aim
10 create disaffection in the ranks, and
pirate about the independence voters
ought TO exerciseand yet they vii
vote their own ticket.
Republican unity is a conspicuous
feature this year, there is nothing t.
induce a member Of the party to vote
the democratic ticket this fall, and this
forlorn hope has nothing at present t
encourage the opposition.

about how to settle the Philippine ques.
tons, remarks the Clarksville Star.
The Muscatine Journal states that a
democratic merchant in the interior OF
Lee county talked lots of sense, in sub
stance: II don't know anything about
the politics of It, I only know I have
the best business now ever had and
under Cleveland the worst. I am going
to vote for what I've got"
The Tama Free Press declares that
III the republican party has placed
the dollar above the man, as Mr.. Bry-
an alleges, it has also provided sub
stantial step ladder upon which he car
climb and get it and it is worth a hun
dred cents

lonly found fault. His glittering gener-
lalities sound quite eloquent, and may
please some kickers, but they do not
help to lead us out of the Philippine
Wilderness"
Referring to the proposition to dc
away with annual and substitute bien-
NAL elections. the Nevada Representa-
ltive observes that $50 far as expressions
have been heard upon the amendment
they have been generally favorable; and
it is highly probable that the amend
ment Will be submitted and ratified
Nevertheless the Representative goes
on record as utterly opposed to it and
as believing that the proposition
Though not very important, is inimical
to the best interests of the state and
nation" 1t holds that the denial of

pie over politics and public policies

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

The Rockford Register thinks THE
only reason that Bryan has for stickin,.
at all to the silver question is that the
contributions of the mine-owners are
indispensable to the conduct of Bry-
ans campaign.
The Upton Advertiser, commenting
on the statement that Gen. Otis is at
tempting to do toomuch, believes With
a younger and more active man in com
mand in the field that rebellion in the
Philippines ought to be completely
suppressed before another rainy season
sets in
The Newton Record admonishes that
Nothing should be left undone to
make a republican victory this fall, nc
stone left unturned to get out the full
republican vote"

patients in the same way that physi-
Ecians do, making daily visits to them
and remaining as long as she is re-
quired. She then leaves them with
friends or less experienced nurses until
the next visit. Miss Johnson charges
according to the time required and the
means of the patient. She is often sent
for to relieve worn out friends for a
night while they obtain needful rest.
Persons passing through the city have
been taken sick at hotels, and her SER
vices have been required for a few
hours. Miss johnson was born in Ga
lena, Ill. She is member of the corps
of government nurses and passed an
examination before the board of exam
liners, under the direction of DIR. Anita
MCGEE, u. S. A., in Washington in
June, 1897. She entered active service
during the Spanish-American war.

to be found on our subscription lists.
We have always claimed that 1t was
this love for good government that has
gravitated so many good democrats,
populists and prohipitionists to the
Times Republican lists and it gives us
great pleasure to see our opinions so
strongly supported by another paper,
the editors of which are In a position to
know whereof they speak.
But be this as it may, we would call
our readers attention to the argument.
What calamities can be imagined where
supposition is sufficiently strong. For
leXample: Suppose horse We're a mad
dog and the mad dog We're running
loose on the street, biting and swapping
at everybody. What lapse of duty it
would be in the authorities to permit
such beast to run at large. Officials
who would permit it ought to have
their official heads cut off-supposing
the horse were a mad Dig, and the mad
dog bit people and officers didn't pre-
vent it! Enough; we do not sup-
pose that we could follow the Retiec-
tors style of argument With SO true a
Ipen. Our subscribers Will not tolerate
Iit further.

the Mississippi Valley Lumberman is
Iauoted elsewhere in reply to corre-
spondence which appeared in this pa
Iper A correspondent of the T.-R.
lauoted a lumber dealer as making the
statement that an offending member of

The Lumberman does not believe the
lumber dealer made the statement:

sold there at figures way below whole
sale list quotations. This statement
about the local fight is true and this is
what generally leads to a combine to

The man goes around the tree, but the
squirrel Is not a part of the tree, and the
man does not go around the squirrel any
