Unless there is a fair sprinkllng of
democrats in the legislature next winter
a state constabulary law will slip
through. The prohibitionists demand
such law. They are said to be making
all kind Of bargains with republican
candidates for the legislature. There is
an element in the republican party
which is radically prohibition. That
element may require concessions to
keep it in line in other matters. Mulct
was cheat and that same republican
element we refer to was the party cheat

so easily. That radical amendments to

Next Tuesday is election day. The
republicans are organized and will
doubtless get out their full strength.
They have many sources to draw upon

OUR COUNTY TICKET.

We desire to again call attention to
the worthy personnel of our county
ticket. There is not single flaw in its
makeup. Every man that was nomi-
mated for position is most worthily
equipped to fill it. In fact, they were
especially selected for their adoption for
the office, and all are recognized as most
worthy and deserving candidates.
For this reason it is essential that
there be general turnout of their
party friends on election day. They
represent good cause. Your represen-
tatives in convention have done the
best that was possible, and they ask the
Endorsement of their action.
Next Tuesday is election day. If it is
desired to hold the party organization
together unanimous vote is necessary
on that day. There must be general
turnout on election day. Bad weather,
press of business, or distance to the
polls is no excuse. Every man must
buckle on his armor and go to his duty
despite these conditions. The cause is
a good one. There is no half way place.
We must turn out to the man and we
must battle tor the cause of good and
efficient government.

A manis not really exercising the
elective franchise when he simply puts
cross in circle on that part of the
blanket ballot he wants to vote. To
vote for the men of his choice he should
put cross IN the square opposite the
name of each candidate for whom he
desires to vote. Leave the circle entire.
ly alone. 1t is there only as snare
and cheat. The circle is not an honest
device. 1t is there to deceive. 1t is
put there by the dominant party. proof
of which is clear when attention is called
to the repeated refusal of the party in
power 10 remove the circle. 1t is better
republican vote-getter than the best
possible organization. If you want to
vote for the man of your choice put a
cross opposite his name. That is the
manly way to cast manly vote. Then
before you are tempted to put cross in
tile circle, fold up your ballot, step out
of the booth, and hand your vote to a
judge of the election. In that way, and
in that way only, do you exercise the
election franchise.

Geo. Baker has been tried as public
official and no criticism could be made
against him. He is brilliant and
capable man and one who would reflect
honor on his constituency in the legisa-
ture of our state. Geo. Bakers advo.
cacyi of measure would mean some
thing more than simply casting his vote
for or against the bill under discussion.
Such a member is needed by Decatur
county during the coming session. Do
not let anybody persuade you to vote
against your own interests, which you
surely will do if you vote for any other
candidate except Geo. Baker for repre-
sentative.

John r. Beavers, the democratic can
didate for county superintendent, is
young man who will fill the position
with much credit. He is thoroughly
capable, industrious and has the proper
conception of the responsibilities Of the
Office. Unassuming in manner he will
not feel thai he is bigger than his job,
and anyone having business at the
county superintendent Office will re.
ceive courteous treatment, whether he
is prominent socially or financially, or
blessed with but few of this worlds
goods. Vote for John Il. Beavers, a
product of the common people, with the
rugged virtues of that class, but who
has by self-education, push and enter
prise fitted himself to fill any position
within the gift Of the people.

y, Tom Wallace, the democratic nominee
for sheriff, was raised from boyhood in
Decatur county, receiving his education
in the Leon public schools, has grown
to manhood in this county, and has by
years of faithful attention to his business
built for himself an honored name
among his acquaintances for his sterling
qualities Of mind and heart. Those who
know him best are his firmest friends
and even those whose acquaintance
with him is limited, recognize at once
his fitness for the position to which he
aspires. Honest Tom Wallace will re.
ceiye one of the heaviest votes cast for
any democrat for years, and if all dem.
ocrats do their duty and go to the polls
next Tuesday he will be elected by big
majority. Therepublicans are straining
every effort to save their ticket from
defeat, and under these circumstances
democrats should not stay at home on
election day.

w. H. Young, candidate for treasurer
on the democratic ticket is certainly one
of the strongest candidates ever nomin-
ated by the democrats Of Decatur
county. All who are acquainted with
him know his sterling worth and integ-
rity. He never betrayed trust, large
or small, and the county funds will be
absolutely safe in his hands. No danger
Of any mistakes being made either, for
Mr.. Young is careful and painstaking in
all Of his business transactions. 1t is
not so much question Of politics as of
men and comparison Of the candidates
will convince any person that Mr..
Young should be the next treasurer of
Decatur county.

Democrats, go to the polls election,
day ana see that your neighbor does
likewise. The democratic party of
Decatur county never had better
ticket and it appeals to you for your
support and also the support of
those who affiliate with other political
parties if they place the man above
party. The REPORTER has said time and
again thatif the candidates nominated
by the democrats are not the best men
for the offices. then you are nota duty
bound ID support them. Have you eysr
heard our political opponents make
such q remark? Vote for the man.

A democratic minority has many a
time saved the country and state from
perils and dangers. The minority in
the legislative halls is M ore essential to
good government than the majority.
The minority holds the majority in
check. 1t is not good politics to con-
tend that there. should be no democrats
in the next general assembly of this
state. And if you want to elect level
headed young man to sit with the
minority in the Iowa legislature cast
your vote for George w. Baker.

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.

In an article in the March number
Of the North american ReUie1U on the
Business Situation in the United
States and the Prospects for the
Future" Mr.. Charles r. Flint, treas
urer of the United States Rubber
Company, sets forth some extraordi-
nary facts and figures illustrative of
the present Astounding prosperity of
the country. The balance of trade in
our favor for 1900 was $649, 200, 1000
which means that every minute 81 300
is posted to our credit on the books of
the world. Europe is alarmed, and
no wonder! But the suggested eXpe-
dent of a European Economical
Alliance' to check our growth would
be futile, inasmuch as Europe is de-
pendent upon US for necessities, while
she sends to us only the luxuries; and
even these in constantly diminishing
volume. The growth of our manufac-
lures during the past two or three
years has been phenomenal, our man
ufactured exports during the last two
years having been 40 per cent. more
than during the previous two years;
and these exports have gone, in the
main, to countries where wages aver
age 40 per cent. less than here. We
are now lenders, instead of borrowers,
of money, our currency having been
established on stable basis; and the
only circumstance which prevents
our taking from England the position
of the financial centre of the world is
that England has prodigious invest
ments in the United States. The
future has even greater developments
in store for US, and the time is coming
when our commerce across the Pacific
will be as heavy as it is to day across
the Atlantic

Wise Words to college Students.

When you go out from school you
will find 'the other fellow" He has
not been to college, but he is occupy
ing the place which you want, and he
is four years ahead of you. He will
stay there, too, unless the work you
get in college better prepares you for
his place. If a person can do one
thing, and do it well, he will be worth
something. It makes no difference
what you do, as long as you do it bet
ter than it has ever been done before.
There is no visible opening in any
line you might select. On the other
hand, there is a splendid opening if
you can try a case better than any
other attorney. There are many at
torneys, but not SO many lawyers;
many pedagogues, but few teachers;
many medical men, but few doctors.
One-fourth of the lawyers in Chicago
can try case no better now than
when they began, and all through
Wisconsin there are women who can
cook no better than they could the
day they were married-and they are
told so three times day.
The world is ready to pay any price
for excellence. The difficulty with
the average man, and the rest of them,
is that they do not pay enough atten-
ton to detail. No matter what pro-
fession you master, you must also
master detail.

ALOOK AHEAD.

Edward VII, personally, will not
disappoint his best friends but will
surprise his enemies. There are some
Americans who have a more or less
intimate personal knowledge of the
new king, among them Chauncey M.
Depew. The Prince of Wales, of late
wears has lived a fairly moral life,
Imagination, and sentiment. The
character of his reign, of course re-
mains to be seen. He may do his best
to walk in his ''mother's footsteps"
but no two monarchs ever reigned
alike. Commercially, England will
have to resort to the heroic to hold
her present prestige. The next ten
years Of her history are problematlcal
as much so, indeed, as the life of the
average man after passing his sixtieth
mile post. Britannia has not yet
conquered the military stage in South
Africa. The civil problem there may
be even more difficult. Her Austria
liam and Canadian colonies have only
a sentimental attachment for her.
Her commercial decline is sure to
send these countries to other markets;
and, when that arrives, she will find
them slipping from her. This may all
go in peace or in the smoke of gun
powder. But the new king may, by
his tact, his perseverance, his judg-
ment of other men, and his connection
with other monarchs, give more days
to the greatest Of empires. At any
rate he Will not be figurehead even
though she was a constitutional ruler.

(4enSonS Plaster is Pains Mastsr.)

These are days of records and of the beat
ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster, for
quickness of action and thoroughness of
cure, has no records to beat except its own.
BensOn'S Plaster, always the best, always
the leader, is to-day better than e0er. It
sticks to the skin but never sticks in its
tracks. 1t marches on.
The people not only want to be cured
but cured quickly and Benson's Plaster
does it. Coughs, colds, lumbago, asthma,
bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints,
and other ills apprOachable by an external
remedy, yield to BensOn's as ice does to heat.
Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or
Capsicum plasters are to be compared with
BensOn's. People who have once tested
the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use
for any other external remedy.
