Gov. cummins at Clinton.

ut is genuine pleasure to divest
the contest now in progress in the Sec
ond district Of every trace of person
atty. know the two candidates for
congress well and, as men, both are
entitled to any eulogy that can be pro-
nounced upon high characters and fine
attainments. One, however, is Q re-
publican and the other n democrat,
and it is this fact that should, and ]
doubt not will, determine your action
when you come to exercise the highest
function of citizen of the republic.
This is government of parties. II
always has been so and always will be
so. Political parties necessarily exist
in any country in which the people
rule, for there must be concert Of pur-
pose TO accomplish any end, great or
small. 1t must be assumed that II Mr..
Hoffman is elected he will help 10 carry
forward republican politics within re-
publican lines, and likewise 1t must be
assumed that if Mr.. Wade is elected
his influence, TO be OF any effect, must
be exerted to promote democratic
principles and to execute democratic
designs.
The real question then to be ans
wered is, which party will do the best
for your country and for you. am
wholly willing that you shall answer
this question from selfish point Of
view, because what is good for you
cannot be bad for your townsmen or
your countrymen. 1 am lawyer, and
want you, my democratic friend. for
witness. You need not answer me-
but answer your own conscience and
Judgment and act accordingly. II the
the democratic party were restored to
power, what would it do? am reason
ably certain of but one thing. Itwould
abolish all protective duties and substi-
tute free trade or its equivalent, tariff
for revenue only. Do you want IL?
You tried it not many years ago-how
did you like it? There are great
many men in Clinton who work for
wages. 1t may be that they are mol
getting enough now, for the govern
ment cannot divide profits, il can only
create conditions which make profits
possible; but do you think free trade
would increase either work or wages
; You tried it not many years ago, you
remember we'll; be guided by your ex
perience.
"What else would the democrats

do with the Philippines and with Port'

Republican Campaign Letter.

Des Moines, Iowa, Oct. 29.-In a
few more days the campaign of 1902
will be at an end. The prospects for
republican success in Iowa are bright
and the indications are that every dis
trict will be carried for the republican
ticket by good majority. The cam
paign has not been very enthusiastic
one and the impression has gained
ground that the people are not inter
rested in the outcome. Nothing could
be farther from the truth. The peo-
pie are interested. They have not de-
monstrated it before election as they
have some years, but they will dem
onstrate it at the polls November 4th.
The people are interested in endors
ing the acts of President Roosevelt and
the way to do this is to give the repub-
lican nominees for Office good majorities
this year. The people are interested
in supporting the president in his
plans, and the way to do this is to re-
turn a solid republican delegation to
congress. The people are interested
in the continuance f4prosperty, and
they realize that the conservative policy
of the republican party means its
continuance.
1t is submitted to the people of Iowa
that the democratic party has not
offered a single reason why its nominees
should be elected. 1t has not advanced
solitary argument why any republi-
can nominee for congress should be
defeated by democratic nominee.
Its candidates have made campaign,
it is true. The most sensible thing
that has been said by any of them was
said by Judge Wade when he told his
hearers that eff they were satisfied
with the existing conditions to vote the
republican ticket" A democrat could
not represent any of the Iowa districts
in congress as we'll as q republican
Why any Iowa district should desire tc
be represented in congress by demo
crat is an unanswered question. A
democratic house could accomplish
nothing, but could block every plan o
President Roosevelt and of the repub
lican party. 1t could create distrust
and destroy confidence.
The democrats have not presented {
single issue that merits the supper
of the American people. First the.
attacked the policy of the government
in the Philippines, but the course o
events has already demonstrated tina
the republican policy is right. Sine
that time they have been devotinl
themselves largely to trusts, but thu
position of President Roosevelt an'
Attorney g General Knox on this subjec
commends itself to the people of tn
country. The democrats are now cry
ing for a revision of the tariff and 70
free trade. The people have not fol
gotten what happened when the demo
Gratis did revise the tariff. In one par
of the country the democrats want on
thing and in another part they wan
another. As matter of fact, they ar
at loss to know really what they d

ct is better for the farmers to spend
one day insuring themselves a good
price for their crops than to spend that
day in gathering those crops" is a
pointed and trite saying, containing
much good food for thought. 1t has
been adopted by the state committee
and used to impress the truth on
thousands of stay at-home voters. Our
own popular congressman, Walter I.
Smith, is the author of it.

ton and uncertainty which have
marked democratic utterances upon
these increasingly important subjects.
eff I understand the characteristics
of this campaign, the opposition comes
perilously near admitting that it has
not done we'll in times past with the
questions which from time TO time have
demanded answers; but it insists that
there are other problems arising for
which il will have better solution
than the republicans. One of them
involves the relation between the en-
ployer and the employed, which has
much disturbed the industrial peace in
recent days. I recognize the problem
as an exceedingly grave and difficult
one. II demands the purest patriotism
and the highest Intelligence for its in
vestigation, and Q courageous states
manship for its solution. Through the
labyrinth Of conflicting interests and
inconsistent theories the path of JUS
tice, fairness and practicability is not
yet clear. We are making progress
every day and our views are being
widened as the contest goes on. 1t
would not be fair to say that either
political party has definitely deter
mined the scope of legislation that may
be required; but as a guide to the
tendencies Of the two parties, it is
WHOLLY fair to call your attention to
the plan proposed, under the New
York democratic platform, by that
eminent democrat, David b. Hill, for
the adj ustment OF the coal strike. He
thought that the only way out of the
tangle was for the government to sieze
and confscste the coal property and
to operate the mines. 1t must be as
sume6 that il trouble should occur in
any other Industrial field the demo-
cratic solution would be the same.
Contrast this violent, socialistic and
intolerable revolution in our affairs
with the wise, moderate, impartial but
effective policy proposed by the
president Of the United States, who fol
the time being exemplifies republican
thought and leads the republican hosts
Compare these two men with theii
widely different views and then tell me
whether you dare entrust the demo
cratic party with the greatest govern
mental problem which our civilization
has developed.
81 hazard the prophecy that in day
TO come the bold and brilliant work o
Theodore Roosevelt will be accepted
as marker for the most enduring vic
tory labor ever won in its long ant
arduous struggle"

The democrats only nominated one
candidate for Judge in this district and
now the managers are worried for fear
democrats will exercise their privilege
and vote for two republican candidates.
What is there wrong in doing this,
even from a democratic standpoint !?
If their party hasn't furnished them
with candidates for all the places to be
filed they should be allowed to choose
between the three republican candi-
dates for the other two who must be
chosen.

An order was issued by the president
last week to reduce the regular army
to Sc, 9S9 men, the smallest number
possible under the law. The anti-im-
perialists have thus one less reason for
their beliefs. We believe we never
before saw SO big howl as they were
raising year or two ago die out so
quickly. 1t didn't receive support from
reasonable people.

Chairman Spence has labored faith
fully and earnestly for the victory Of
the republican ticket in Iowa this year.
He expects every republican to vote on
election day, and give the republican
ticket good majority in every district.
As chairman Of the state committee he
has given his time and energy to the
cause of the party. He will feel amply
repaid II the state sends solid repub-
lican delegation to congress by good
maiorities. The state chairman always
had difficult and onerous task to per-
form, and Chairman Spence has per-
formed his duties in manner that de-
serves the highest praise from the
republicans of the state.

The report comes from Washington
that the democratic committee is rely
ing on the apathy of republicans for
success this year. This should spur
the republicans to increased exertiols
in all of the close districts. II they
figure on fair majority they should
exert themselves to make it q little
larger than they have been expecting.
Not single district is in doubt il the
republicans do their duty: II is not
safe for them to assume that the demo
Gratis are doing nothing. The demo-
Gratis are cultivating apathy among the
republicans. Since they depend on
apathy for their chance Of success, it is
but natural that they should do their
work quietly and arouse the repupli.
cans as little as possible.
