The Advocate on Ring Rule

The Advocate seems anxious to
make it appear that there is ring in
republican county politics in this
county and that the editor of the RE
PUBLICAN is its leader, that this ring
dictates nominations, handles delega-
tions in conventions, throwing the
votes of delegates wherever it wishes.
The editor of the Advocate doesn't
believe any such thing, but he tries to
create the impression that it Is so,
hoping that his party will gain votes
thereby.
The editor of the Advocate over
looks the fact that the rank and file of
the republican party of Audubon
county are men of intelligence. They
are well read, well informed and have
opinions of their own. Hundreds OF
them are qualified for any public Office
within the gift of the county. They
think for themselves. They not only
need no boss, but would not tolerate
one. They are capable of self gov
eminent, and the twaddle about them
being bossed or controlled by ring
and manipulated by few is so weak
as to excite contempt.
1t is admitted that men In the re-
publican party in Audubon county
have their friends, and that they pre-
fer to support their friends to sup
porting others. That is natural, but
that is not ring rule.
The hue and cry about all the sue
cessful candidates receiving the same
number of votes in the convention, "a,
is false alarm, because the charge Is
untrue. Mott only received II while
Hoegh received 70. But If true IL
would not prove the existence of a
ring, for not single township voted
the same for the successful candidates.
These candidates got many of their
votes from different sources. An en-
animation of the table of votes pub
lished last week shows this.
The fact seemed to be simply that o
majority Of the delegates were for GER
tain men and proceeded to nominate
them. The REPUBLICAN believes
these men to be honest and capable
men. These men, having been nomi-
mated by the convention, are now the
party's nominees and are entitled to
the support of all republicans. They
will no doubt receive the support OF
practically all the republicans as well
as their full share of independent
voters.

The selection Of Hon. Geo. ID. Per.
kins, ex-congressman and editor Of
the Sioux City Journal, for temporary
chairman of the republican state con
vention, is very well received the state
over. Mr.. Perkins has done perhaps
more than any other one man to clear
up misunderstanding in the big dis.
cussion in the party over the so-called
"Iowa idea" He is brilliant, con-
sentative, philosophic, experienced,
kind, courteous and gentleman. He
is now talked of considerably as Gov.
Cummins' successor. That is antici-
pating events yet long way off, but
all admit that Perkins is good timber
for the place.

Crop Bulletin.
For week ending May 4.

rOF week euulnS MAY 4.
The week was excessively wet and
cloudy and unseasonably cold The
deficiency in daily temperature ranged
from 3 degrees at Keokuk, 6 degrees
at Des Moines and l3 degrees at Sioux
City, where the minimum was - de-
grees on the Both. The lowest temper
ature reported was II degrees al
hardwood, Lyon county. From all
reports received it appears that the
northwest district and the counties on
the Missouri slope suffered the brunt
of the cold wave on April % to May 3.
The snow fall was general, ranging
from half an inch to ; inches. This
measurably protected grass, grain
and small fruit during the period OF
lowest temperature, though ii greatly
retarded field work. The soil is satu-
rated and several warm and drying
days will be required to put 1t in con-
dition for blowing and planting. The
reports indicate much uncertainty as
to the extent of damage to the different
kinds of fruit. The estimates range
from 20 to rs per cent, though few re-
porters make any definite figures on
the loss. Unquestionably the aggre-
gate of injury will be heaviest in the
west and southwest, where the fruit
had reached the tenderest stage.
There has been II great profusion of
bloom and 1t may be hoped that the
final output will exceed present ex-
pectations.

Atlantic now has a red hot and
rather ably edited democratic daily,

sons want to run a democratic daily
out in this part of Iowa they must be
allowed to do so, providing they be-
have themselves. What we wonder is
however, whether it will pay. Ideal
ize as one may about rights and priv
ileges of the press, the question the
publisher has to meet first is whether
there is enough money in the business
to make it 60.

Experience In Breeding Horses

In line with the different opinions
expressed in your columns by farmers
and horse breeders | offer my exper.
fence. II / remember right it was
from about 1876 to 1879 that we passed
through horse panic similar to the
one we all remember yet SO we'll.
Horses were far below paying prices.
lClydesdales and Normans, as they
were called then, were not known In
this locality at that time. In 1878 /
bought a mare on a years time for
$1,000. l do not know any thing about
her breeding but she looked as though
there might be some Morgan blood in
her veins. bred this mare to some
cross bred horses at different times
and she would raise me colt about
every time l would breed her, and a
good one, too, considering the sires.
In 1880, l think it was, Percheron
was brought into the country and they
charged S12 service fee. He was not
crowded the first season. Farmers
were in the habit Of paying from s. to
81 for colt and they could hardly
stand the jump to $12. About 1883 a
Clydesdale was brought into our town
ship Which stood at $40. got no.
ton into my head / was going to raise
better horses. / had never studied
horse breeding any more than Latin.
| just bred the old mare speak OF to
that Clydesdale stallion and fortunate
ly she dropped me a FLY foal the next
spring. They said that stallion
weighed 300 pounds or over, but he
was as fat as show bull. Perhaps
in ordinary flesh he would have
weighed 1850 pounds. He was an i'm
ported horse and / thought a very
good one.
Now while some men say it does not
pay to breed small mares to big horses
and this mare weighed, when she car
ried her last colt and within about
three months of foaling, $50 pounds
with the harness on, yet she did well.
You see she was not big mare, but
her FLY by the Clydesdale horse made
a FLY of about 1900 pounds. l have
bred her only to pure bred Clydes-
dales and ner daughters and grand
daughters are in appearance almost
equal to pure breds. Later, about
1891, / bought two pure bred Clydes-
dale FLIES, but in appearance my high
grades show as we'll as the pure breds.
| see no reason why man cannot do
the same as I did IL he will only stay
with it.
In regard to the kind Of sire TO
use there are good ones in all the
draft breeds, but this has been demon
strated here that mares with some Per-
cheron blood in them make good cross
with a Clyde stallion. 1t gives the colt
stronger bone, as SO many OF the Per.
cherons that are here are too light
| from the knee down, and consequently
breed too many light boned colts.
Therefore / would say to the farmers,
do not go past a good ,Clydesdale to
breed to Percheron, just because he
is Percheron, but breed your mare
to stallion which, when horse, will
sell for the most money. My exper'
fence Is the stronger and heavier bone
a draft colt has, the better he will sell

Senator Beverage has an ambition
to be vice president. Some one re-
Gently mentioned the fact that it very
rarely happens that one making a
campaign for that place gets it. The
nomination for that position is nearly
always placed to meet matters of
party expendecy. 1t is given to a GER
tain section of the country or to a
certain state to strengthen the party
there, or it is given to a certain ele-
ment in the party to unity the party.
Sometimes, of course, this cannot be
done. For example, in 1900, the
popular fancy caught up Roosevelt
and made a hero of him and nomi-
natsd him rather against the advice
of the party leaders. But even this
confirms the pretty well established
rule that campaign for a vice presi-
Dental nomination dosen't accomplish
much. We believe that more consid-
Grafton should be given to the ability,
experience and political skill and
craftsmanship of a vice presidential
candidate than is usually done. Our
party made no mistake in 1900, but
many mistakes have been made in this
respect. The position has around it
such great possibilities that none but
those of presidential calibre should be
nominated for vice president.
