JUDGE CONNER ABROAD.

The big tent was packed to the
uttermost Saturday night to hear
the opening speech of the republi-
can campaign in Pocahontas coun.
ty. County Attorney Hazlett, as
chairman, introduced the speaker
of the evening, Judge ]. P. Con
ner, who as he stepped forward
was warmly greeted by his audi
ence. The Judge gave an honest,
straightforward talk without any
furbelows and every time he struck
it was right from the shoulder with
telling effect. He argued the is
sue from a business mans stand
point comparing the condition of
the masses in 1896 with their CON
dition in 1900, showing the prices
of farm produce to be double in
price in some lines now to what
they were four years ago, and in
all lines at least so per cent higher.
He spoke of the number of farmers
now riding in their own carriages.
-Four years ago farmers were Dor
rowing money at the banks and
paying eight per cent interest, now
they are actually cheating the
banks by loaning money to each
other at five per cent. Four years
ago the bank deposits 1.-THE Tenth
Congressional district amounted to
$3.50, 900 while now there are over
81, 900, 900 in the banks of the dis
trlct representing the savings OF
wage earners. If these facts do
not indicate prosperity then what
do they indicate? Where are the
calamity howlers of 90? Gone out
OF business, as their stock in trade
is a minus quantity. p ocahontas

BE MEN NOT MICE.

Be men not mice. Go to the
polls on election day and vote.
Vote just the way you think best,
not as someone else tells you, but
at any rate vote. There are men
who pirate about the glories Of A
merican citizenship 364 days in
the year and who fail to go to the
polls on the one day when there is
opportunity to exercise the right
o. citizenship. We would like to
have all of our readers go to the
polls and vote the republican tick
e., but if you cannot see your way
clear to do that, vote any way. 1t
is duty and privilege and every
man should drop his other work
cheerfully and go to the polls.
He should not wait until someone
comes after him unless he is sick
and unable to go alone. Every
man is equally interested in the
election and he should allow nc
other man to show more zeal in
standing up for what he thinks is
right than he does himself. Be
men not mice. Do not be afraic
to express you convictions and a

vote.

JUST AS WE PRopHEs1ED.

AS we foretold last week the Bulletin
tells what failure was made at the
joint debate at Kenwood. We reprint
the Bulletins kindly comment:
s. Y. O'Hare and F. W. Meyers held
the llrst OF their series of joint debates
at henwood Tuesday evening, when a
large crowd heard the speakers.
owing to misunderstanding of the
Time Keeper the debate was not accord
ing 10 the rules agreed upon as to time.
ana IN this Mr.. O'Hare was cut out of
twenty minutes talk. However. the
audience made up for this when Movers
went to close. Some of those well
posted silver republicans in Paradise
were present and called the republican
speaker down hard on some of his flo.
nfes and turned the meeting into rout
lof MIN. The concensus of opinion
over there is that Mr.. O'Hare's Side of
the case had much the bestof the bout
-Denison Bulletin.
1t is true that Mr.. Meyers was inter-
rapted several times by those who
should have been willing to see fair
play. This was also the case at Rick.
etts where the largest meeting ever
held in Soldier township greeted the
debaters.
Mr. oHare makes strong presenta-
ton OF his side snd were he backed bv
the right he would be most convinc-
ing speaker In justice to Mr.. O,Hare
we wish to say that he has expressed
himself as sincerely regretting the in.
terruptions which have occurred. Ina
Joint debate it is not only unfair to the
speaker but unkind to his opponent to
nave these continued Interruptions as
1T would Indicate that those who trv to
raise a disturbance feel that they have
been worsted in argument. This week
Messrs. O'Hare and Meyers will debate
at the following places: Aspinwall

have this buggy and that Stude-
baker wagon over there, which
costs sos, and that pillow that sells
for SIS. I'll give you $40 in cash
besides, and still Id be 81 ahead
of YOU The farmersaw the point
and cheerfully paid the price asked
for the buggy. He saw that he was
getting sIIo more for his produce
than he did four years ago and gave
back only $40 of it to the working
man and the manufacturer who
made the buggy. Corn in western
Iowa and Nebraska four years ago
was generally worth only 10 to 12
cents a bushel. The average for
the entire state of Iowa was only
IA cents, and over nearly all of Ne
braska it was 10 cents. Now corn
is worth 80 cents and old corn is
worth 3oto SO cents. The farmers
take stock in the republican theory
that they owe these good prices
very largely to the protective tariff
and the sound financial system Of
the United States. They see that
when the manufacturing industries
are all busy there is a good demand
for their produce, and they also
welcome an expanding market
abroad and in the new possessions.
They are unalterably opposed to
taking any chances on changing
these conditions.-F. w. Bicknell
