faN the Herald, like the royal republican
It is. can but fall into dine and give Mr..

best support. All others who were anti
Cummins before the nomination. altho
they may feel disappointed in the out

Mr.. Cummins, 1t need not be said, was
not the choice of this paper or of Lee
county or Of the First district for gov
larnor. For reasons heretofore set forth

of Iowa republicans agree with 1t In its
preferences and given those preferences
force and effect. But they did not, and
this paper is neither disgruntled nor

(Boone Republican,
The nomination of Cummins will meet
with the approval of the great majority
of republicans of the state and we be-
lieve that the party will never have
cause to regret the action of yesterday
in placing at the head of the ticket a
man who has attained such high posi-
ton in professional, business and social
life. a man about whom his opposers
have never intimated word to fis det-
riment, man of strong mental ability
and thorough integrity, man whom we
believe will fulfill his pedge made to the
convention, ito do his duty" when
elected. The nomination of Herriott for
lieutenant governor came as rather a
surprise, as 1t was not generally under
stood that he would accept the second
place on the ticket. The support which
he was given was generally the Cum
minis support. He will add strength to
the ticket.
[Belle PLANE Union.l
Having fought good fight, and been
bested by the other fellows, we are here
to do our best to elect the straight re-
publican ticket in state and county.
