err. Young of the Dies Moines capital, the
editor of the Chronicle and many others
we might name have been struck at by
reptilian fangs charged with venom
from the Blythe Hubbard barrdluauoin
son. No Individual who has been prom
inent in support of Cummlns has es-
capped these thrusts. Judge Helsell and
his brother, who refused to do dirty
work for Hubbard, have been marked
for distinctions; SO has Craig Wright.
another lawyer of high standing who
declined to be a railroad tool Their
name are in the anonymous circulars.
But all of this venom has been poured
out in vain. A. II. Cummins Will be
nominated and elected, the thieves and
iboodlers will be sent to the rear, the
railroads will be compelled to pay their
just share of taxation, and the subsi-
died editor viii be out of job Mat
tiers have gone so far that no man
known to be in sympathy with Blythe
Hubbard methods can succeed Gov.
Shawy. The people of Iowa Will not
have a railroad tool in the governors
chair. They Az aroused. and they mean
business. Let the campaign of mud
Singing continue: it only increases the
determination of honest men to turn
down the bosses who have stained the
record of Iowa republicanlsm.
"UP TO THE DELEGATES"
Waterloo Reporter.l
An editorial recently appearing in the
Sioux City Journal under the caption
UP to the Delegates is quoted APPROX
ingly and commented on with unctious
liking by the papers that have beer
foremost in opposition to Mr. Cummins
candidacy for governor. The journal
discusses the question as calmly as
Tell-defined and deep seated opposition
will permit the matter to be handled
At the eleventh hour the admission is
made of the charge freely brought dur
ing the campaign that the essence OF
the struggle was "Cummins or anti
Cummins" with the forces commonly
denomnated as the machine and tht
Journal epitomiZes the antipathy of tho
opposition to Mr.. Cummins in this para
graph:
Mr.. Cumnins ought not to be nomin-
ated. The campaign that has been mad.
in his behalf ought not to be given sane
ton by the republican convention. Il
is such a campaign as ought to have No
successor. and the way to avoid repeti
ton is to bring to naught the despera
ton represented by the Cummins move
ment of 1901.
What absolute truth there may be Il

Cummins' campaign management tn
