IOWA PRESS comMEill.S

The Spirit Lake Beacon notices that
The campaign in this state has not
been particularly enthusiastic. From
the beginning Iowa has been regarded
as safe, with just a little organization
and care. In the close states there has
been such a demand for speakers that
few big guns have been available here
and our own oratorical battery has been
heavily drawn upon for outside work.
The only possible ground for anxiety
is the lurking fear that the state vote
may be light. With anything like a full
vote the republican majority can not be
under a, 600. All the republican candi-..
dates are thought to be sure of election,
tho there is big fight in the SECOND
district
In referring to Bryan. the Traer star
Clipper asks: WHO can have faith in
such man? Either he is too shallow
for statesman. or too much dema-
gogue to be trusted in such high posi-
ton as the presidential chair.
In urging voters 10 keep these tines
good the Audubon Republican declares
that business was never so good as
now. Take ii here AT home. Our banks
have twice as much money on deposit
as they had four Years ago. Mortgages
are being paid off. In 1896 the county
record er'ss office shows 4S5 real estate
mortgages filed. 6Nl chattel mortgages
and 267 releases. In 1899 there were filed
only 21I real estate mortgages. 2sS chat

The concluding portion of Mr.. Story's
article, tho hitherto given in part, is
interesting as disclosing the truculent
character of Davis and others. He
says:

ter Hanna's repetition ofny statement

The PRICE OF PsRElpY.

No character more contemplate in
pubiic life Exists than ore Of tie Bene-i
dict Arnold type. a traitor 70 any
worthy callseis dsspisable. A man who
VII sci! his influence and turn his back
ap0n his countrs,s real interest is no
less To be condemned. Such character
is Webster Davis, VINO Sold out 10 the
si3oer government for $4,000 while as
sistant secretary of tle interior and
who, after a visit to South Africa, came
back and espoused the Boer cause and
Organism. There is little doubt that
self-respecting democrats despise him
as much as any other citizens and that
ne has done their cause more harm
than good
Not the least doubt now exists that
he is a paid advocate, and his denial
has little weight. The Times Republic
an has recently received from England
q column. article in the London Mail Of
Oct. 10 in which Douglas Story reas-
serts the clam made by him that Davis
received s125.ooo from the Beer govern
ment as the price of his influence. In
the course of his article Mr., Story says:
The fact remains that Mr.. Davis did
received s125,ooo from the Beers to buy
the American vote for Mr.. Bryan: he
was only one fortnight within The
Transyaal.s and had absolutely mr.
means of arriving at a conviction as to
the rights OF wrongs of the Boer cause;
and he had to sell his party, his politi-
cal chief and his country before he had
sufficiently earned his dole,

1HE CLOSING CAMPAIGN.

The Times publican contidsntiy be-
lieves that William Mekinlev Will b.
triunphantly re-elscted president to-5
morrow II bases his opinion largely
upon what il believes to be the sound
judgment of the people of the United
States. Ultimately when The people OF
the country on tomorrow come 70 sist
the issues TO The final bass they Will
conclude that the paramount issue is
to leave Well enough alone There is
not the slightest reason for disturbing
the present business and financial con-
ditions of the country. The finances of
the nation were never in better condi
ton and the business Of the whole
country is enjoying unsurpassed pros
perity. 1t only needs the stimulus of
McKinleyis reelection TO increase It..
The two features named come closer o
the voter and are more vital TO mis- ii-4
terests than any of thu so-ealled issues
of Organism. Bryan IS dangerous
man. He threatens 10 oVefturn the ma
tons finances. and With the overthrow
of the money standard the fabric of
business viii cone tunnbltns down
about everybody head. No prudent
man can ignore this fact. His latest

& dered ina gination. They do not exist

all parties must coaeede shat tiisy are
of no weight. The poiicies Of The re-
publican party today as they relate 70

ferent from those Of Jefferson, who
largely founded the democratic party,
There is no just ground FOR tbs con-
