THE congressional situation in the
4th District is a very complex one,
and especially is this the case in Cerro
Gordo county. Mr.. j. E. Blythe and
Mr.. Duncan Rule are both candidates
from that county. Mr.. Blythe has
been in the field for some time and his
friends claim that Mr.. Rule had given
him the right of way and had consent
ed to his candidacy. There can be no
question as to Mr.. Blythe's ability, his
honesty and his fitness for the place.
If what his friends claim is true and we
have Mr. Rules own brother as aathori-
ty that it is, there can be now question
but that the vote of Cerro Gordo should
be given to Mr.. Blythe. Nevertheless
it is hard to understand as we know
Mr.. Rule to be one of the most honest
and true hearted of men, one of nature
noblemen in fact, and we cannot think
that he has Intentionally been guilty
of breaking his promise to friend
Some one has been 'fiim-h TANNED" uI
in Cerro Gordo, and the result is one Of
the most unpleasant political fights in
the history of the state.

The Democrates told US again and
again that the republican antitrust
platform meant nothing. Now that
the administration is getting after the
railroad merger, the beef trust, and
discriminative freight rates, it is ap
parent to all that republican promises
can be relied on. 1t is we'll to remem.
Der that the present efforts to bring
the trusts to reason, are being made by
a republican attorney general, at the
instance of republican president
making use of the law as passed by a
republican congress. This is another
democratic stalking horse shown to
bear the long ears and abbreviated
tail of the regular democratic stamp.
