Des Moines, Aug. 6--.It is a great
ticket said John Herriott, treasurer of /
state, to a reporter today. 1t pleases
me very much, and naturally feel Very |
much gratified at the result of tile con-
convention contests, and neither helped
nor embarrassed my friends by mixing
up in It. My articles appeared in pub
I7lic in May and in the early part of June,
but since then have not attemted toll
lrepeat the statement of my. views which
We're then made clear. 1 think that the
result of the convention will prove of
ilprodigious benefit tostfle republican par
lty. 1t shows that the real strength of
1.-the party is not at the beck and the call
of the railroad interests and thisis what
scme of US have always contended for.
I We ought to have 10000 majority in
Iowa this year.
/ Expressions from republicans of other
parts of the state who visit Des Moines
land from republicans here indicate that
aIr. Herriott'a opinion with respect TO
1.-The strength of the ticket is general. \
fine campaign document was made by
the figures on a ssss ssnlent of property
4 returned to the auditor of state S Office,
(which show that the republican aGmin-
i iistsation OF state affairs, Will be apls to
4 reduce the state levy 10 per cent While
i the assessment of property in the state
has increased 10 per cent. The last
Legislature authorized special one
4 l.tsnth mil tax for the benefit of the
4 State Agricultural College. which, With
4 the one-tenth special levy for the state
4 l5rivsrs'i w. makes the state levy only
ls2.S mills. La st year j t was,.s mills which
|sinciuded one of the special leNies. The
lreduction therefore, is practically 10
i per cent. The executive council met to-
Il day to fix this levy.
