REPUBLICAN STALwARTS.
Clean-Cut and Progressive states
ment of Principles by the Iowa
Convention.

The work of the Iowa state con-
vention must be viewed with salts
faction by loyal and thinking repub-
licans all over the nation. 1t NOM
mated strong and clean men for the
various state offices. Its platform is
q clear-cut, progressive statement of
republican principles.
The convention justly congratula ted
congress upon its currency legisla-
ton and upon it's dealings with Porto
Rico, Cuba and the Philippines. THE
policy of this government toward the
islands," it said,, "has followed inev-
itably upon our expulsion of the au-
thority of Spain. 1t has been die
tated by the conditions present, has
been consistent with the spirit of the
constitution, and the paramount con-
sideration has been to secure the
lasting welfare of these peoples
whose fortunes and destinies have
become in large degree dependent
upon u.s.
The convention Endorsed the policy
of protection as the foundation of
our industrial and financial independ-
ence, but it also recognized that that
policy is practical one whose APP
plications must change with circum-
stances, and Endorsed "the policy of
reciprocity as the natural compile
ment of protection, and urge it's de-
velopment as necessary to the real
ization of our highest commercial
possibilities"
In its declarations concerning So
called trusts" the convention recog-
nized them as useful instruments for
the nations industrial advancement,
but asserted "the right residing in
the people to enforce such regula-
tions as will protect the individual
and society from abuse of the power
which great combinations of capital
WELD" No thinking observer Of in
dustrial progress could ask for more.
None interested in combinations can
find the Iowa attitude unfair or OPP
pressive.
The Iowa convention has spoken
clearly, fairly and worthily of a
great republican state. While the
contest for the various nominations
was keen, it was without rancor.
The Iowa republicans have preserved
their old commendable habit of do
ing all their fighting before the nom
nations. United and harmonious, ably
led, advocating principles that appeal
to every loyal and fair-mfnded Amer
lean, the republican party in Iowa
enters upon the campaign with the
best prospects.-Chicago Inter Ocean

All wheat, No char.

He who submits is not subdued.
"The poor always with YOU is not
a promise.
Your promotion cannot be measured
by your locomotion.
The family can only be saved by a
family religion.
He who compounds with the devil
Is likely to be impounded by him.
We are all inclined to watch Christ
while He works and sleep while He
watches.

measured till he is seen standing in

Iowa. Republicans.

Iowa follows Ohio in denouncing
the southern attempt to disfranchise
the negro. In the republican state
convention at Des Moines the follow
ing was adopted:
1--WE are earnestly opposed to all legisla-
tion designed to accomplish the disfran-
chisement of citizens upon lines Of race,
color or station OF life and condemn the
measures adopted by the democratic party
In certain states to accomplish that end"
To this genuine Americanism the
Iowa republicans added Endorsement
of the protective tariff and of the
gold standard. On this invulnerable
platform was placed as the candidate
for governor A. b. Cummins, n prom
inent lawyer of Des Moines, who has
been an Iowa legislator and who was
for four years member of the re-
publican national committee. Repub-
licanism is not taking the back
back track" Iowa republicans are
witnesses to the truth of that dec
laration.-Troy Times.
