greatest good TO him and his neighbors.
Possibly Governor Shaw has acquired
this habit thru living in a democratic |
county 80 long and having to appeal to
a democratic majority year after year.
Certain it is that he is regarded every
where as a great vote getter. Editor
Tomlineon of the Sioux Falls Press
wrote to the national committee after
the governor had Travelled thru South
Dakota with the Roosevelt party and
made several speeches on his own ac-
count, saying that he considered Gov
ernor Shaw the best campaigner he had
ever heard and he wanted him to return
to South Dakota for some meetings La
ter in the campaign. This the governor
Intends to do under the direction of the
national committee. He goes next Sat-
urday from st. Joseph, Mo-, to Detroit,
Mich, and all the next month will speak
under the direction of the national com
mittee. The appearance ins the Dep
Moinea Capital Monday of long story
about the governor 3 success and ma ton
al fame as campaigneer is considered
jby politicians quite significant. The
Capital has not hitherto manifested any
great friendship for the governor and
during the contest for the republican
nomination for congress in the Tenth
district the Capital was the chief instru-
ment in the effort to stir up discord and
enbarrass the governor. 1t appears that
this fight is over.
| All the speakers who come back from
Nebraska, Governor Shaw among them.
4 are very confident that Nebraska is
going republican clean thru, including
lpresdent, governor legislature and
United States senator's.
b. T. Salinger had a great meeting at
IGilmore, on the line between Humboldt
and Pocahontas counties last Monday
might. This is always a good place for
a meeting, but the local committeeman
reports that the meeting was better at

q asm than any they have had before.
Mr.. Salinger is making a first class
i speech. He always manages Ito Stir
things up.
Il Secretary Haley, of the Iowa. State
II Travelling Mems Association, knocked
the trust argument as applied to trav-
feling men squarely in the head and took
4 iall the life out of it. There is certainly
4 no man in Iowa, and hardly a man In
the west who knows as many travelling
men personally as Mr.. Haley. He is
I very popular among the boys and they
trust him, not only officially. but per-
sonally. Therefore he is well informed
as to their affairs. He has never been
known to betray the slightest conf
+ dence, but without doing so he felt a,
;. liberty to say that the claim that trav-
cling men had been knocked out Of theil
jobs by the forma tion of trusts was pure
nonsense and without any foundation
e in fact. He declared that in all his ac-
aslquaintance he knew of but one man who
even 80 much as claimed that he hae
lost his job because of the formation OF
a trust or combination of any kind, ane
this man, he explains, was really mis-
n taken about it. because he had reached
! the age of 6S years and was not up Il
J THE standard required in his business
Mr.. Haley says that he never knew {
more prosperous time for travelling
men; that they are all doing well, much
] better than they ever did before. ant
