In the hard work OF the court room and
not in the mysterious and secret con-
ferences of headquarters He has never

light where all men may see and not
in the dark.
Ii any citizen wishes to secure real
light as to whether to support A. b.
Cummins or John H. Gear let him go
to Des Moines, look in on the contend
ing forces, gee who the supporters OF
each are and then decide. For Gear
will be found Earl Warwick Blythe, the
head of the c., b. & @. regency, as
sisted by Duke Jimmie. his brother
Duke Hubbard and other dukes, earls
and barons Of lesser renown. See bow
