compliments that the curtain named in
the claim as an element of the combine

as though its detailed description had
been in terms given therein. On the 9TH

Judge Putnam held that there can be
no reasonable doubt of the novelty of the
precise mbination covered by the com

as to the question of invention and antici-

The Nome Gold Fields.

The first map folder or circular re-
specting the Klondike gold strike of
1898 was issued by the Northern Pacific
railway. 1t is more than coincidence
that the first map folder or pamphlet
of the Nome Mining district comes
from the same source. The present
folder not only contains a good map of
the Nome district BUTTS embellished
with several cuts of views at Nome
City and on the beach where the meth
cd of mining is clearly shown. All in
formation obtainable regarding sailing
dates from Seattle and Tacoma,
through rates, ETC., is given in this
book and the public cautioned to go to
the agents of the N. P. Ry., who are
supplied with diagrams of the Alaska
steamers, and arrange i'm advance for
their accommodations rather to put off
this very important business until they
reach Puget Sound. There is no doubt
but what there will be very consider
able passenger business from the mid
die and eastern states and a very heavy
business from the Pacific Coast states
to the Nome district next spring.

The Senatorial Que.tion.

Leon Journal: The Journal
abstained from discussion of
this subject during the cam
paign,S nots because we did not enter
tain strong Convictions on the question
but for the main reason that it was a
matter among republicans which could
wait until our county ticket was safely
elected. Senator. Gear and A. b. Cum
Minis are the only candidates and from
our poinS of view there is no question
as to which candidate we ought to sup
port. HI s7ssa
This paper has never had any use
for boilers. Yet the candidacy of Mr..
Cummins involves the proposition to
elevate to the highest Office in the gift
of the. state gentleman whose only
official experience is made memorable
by the fact that at critical time in
the history of the party he headed a
bolt which made the election of a DEM
ocratic governor1possible. With the aid
of democratic votes he defeated the reg
ular republican nominee for represen-
tative and was himself elected for that
Office from Polk county.
The republicans of Decatur county
have not forgotten that unfortunate
apostasy. Neither have our democratic
brethren, for they are practically unan-
ipious for Cummins. Among the vari-
Gus reasons given in eXtenuation of his
conduct the one most prominent is that
he was an anti-prohibitionist. But
there were plenty Of anti-prohibition-
lists in the party and that issue was
never made a test of party fealty. SEN
.ator Gear himself was not strong
prohibitionist but never deserted his
party on that account.
'ANe believe the republicans of olIr.
county are for Senator Gear because
the record of the two men shows that
he is better republican than Mr..
Cummins. We should judge candidates
by their records chiefy-if they have
any. If they are unfortunate in that
respect we should not start in by maxi
ing them United States senator's. Hi
nois republicans tried an experiment
of that kind which they are not liable
to repeat.
That reminds us that Iowa has a
long list of very able and distinguished
public men-one from our own district
whose Legislative experience emf
nently fits them for United States SEN
ators. If Senator Gear We're out of the
question, there are others. But that
contingency has not arisen.
There are geographical and other va
lid reasons why we should support
Gear which we have not space to men
ton. We are told that Senator Gear is
too old. But those familiar with his
past and present work in the senate
will hardly urge that he is incompe-
tent. The question of age is about as
irrelevant as it proved to be last fall
when our representative-elect was ac-
cused Of being '.too young In both
cases it is a question of competency
and not of age.
