Hon. Warren Garst, of Coon Rapids is candi-
date for a third term for the Carroll
Greene-Sac district If renominated he will be
one of the few of the to receive such an
honor. Senator A. B. Funk, Of Spirit Lake, was
thus honored, but the cases are rare where this \
occurs.
We understand that Hon. J. H. Trewin is now
formally announced as a candidate for governor
Mr. Trewn has many friends in the eastern part Of
the state and will doubtless have strong following !
in the convention. With so many candidates in
the field, it is going to be hard work for the repub-
, lidans to make choice Of one thing however,
they sure, their choice will be good one, for
out of such field it is impossible go far wrong. .
1t is announced that Hon. S. A. Foster is about
to make personal canvass of Polk county in the
interests of his candidacy for governor. This is
the most commendable thing we have heard Of
during the gubernatoria campaign AS a usual
thing, politicians too prone to go to few lead
ers and to leave the people whole entirely out
of their calculations. Mr.. Foster is one of the
best speakers in Iowa, and he is bound to be eHec.
tive wherever he may go. This method of ante
primary campaigning is apt to add little spice to
life at Iowas capitol city.
Aguinaldo has been captured and has taken the
i oath of allegiance. 1t is now announced that he
will be punished in any way but will be treated
with due respect and that he is already reconcled
to the inevitable and advises his countrymen to ac

they can rely upon the honor and justice of this
country to deal fairly with the people and to give
them the widest possible measure of freedom com
patble with an orderly government Thus within
six months after election is another democratic is
y sue laid to rest. The great industrial develop
ment of the country is now the only thing Of which
the democrats have to complain. Aguinaldo, the
sssecond George Washington as our democrateA,
friends told US is now convinced that the control
by the United States is the best thing possible for
the Philippines. This must be the case for we
presume that of the eulogists Of the Filipino
chief would nsinuate that the mere matter Of being
captured could have tanned the liberty loving spiri
of he who was swifter than the eagle in his flights.
Those who carping on the burden of taxation
which is heaped upon the poor man will doubtless
be reoiced that is estimated that the great steel
trust paid nearly million dollars into the United
States treasury for stamp taxes their papers of
incorporation etc. The democrats now exc.
cute another buck and wing dance about the evils
of our tax system and the way in which the poor
are being robbed.
Having had its little fling at the Review the Bull
letin can now rest its aurels and stop abusing
good citizens for while, The Bulletin dropped
its discussion of the action of the democratic lead
during the last city campaign if it had hold
OF the hot end of poker. And yet, the Bulletin
could not have charged with ''perncious activity
that day.
While in Des Moines or Tuesday evening the ed
itor had the opportunity of meeting Mr. E. L.
Hogue, of Bencoe. Mr. Hogue is Monona coun-
TVS candidate for the republican senatorial nomi-
nation in this district. He is Of fine pres
ence and impresses one with his honesty and sin
cerity While occasion may arise which will pre-
vent our giving him support for the nomination it
is pleasure to know that he is such able gentle
man as he is, and that he is who would in all
respects represent the district capably and hon.
orably.
The Democratic papers rejoice over the victory
of Carter Harrison whose administration of the
ruption They also rejoice over a few other city
elections, but it will be noticed that the issues of
free Silver antmperiasm and free trade were not
