A Day of Surprises.
1t was q day of surprises on the
gridiron, east and west, but the great.
est surprises were in the east, where
both Harvard and Yale were sadly
humbled, the blue by the proverbial
kicking of the tigers and the crimson
by the mediocre Dartmouth team.
The Carlisle Indians badly defeated
the Pennsylvanians and Columbia was
too much fer Cornell. Eckersall was
powerless to score with his boot
against the army eleven and Stages
eastern game ended in defeat.
In the west the defeat of Wisconsin
through the superior kicking of goals
and superior football in general as
dshed up by the wolverines at Ann
Arbor, was the most important feat
ure, but the overwhelming of Illinois
by Minnesota and the tie of the
Evanston Methodists by the Catholics
of Notre Dame were not less interest
ing and much less expected results.
Wisconsin is now hopelessly out of the
running. The season can hardly end
other than disastrously and the only
good hoped for now with any conf
dence is that the badgers may defeat
Northwestern next Saturday.

COUSINS in SOUTHERN IOWA.

Congressman r. G. Cousins is
spreading CONSERVATION through the
ranks of democracy in southern Iowa
by the series of stirring republican ad-
dresses he is delivering this week in
the three southernmost congressional
districts. For the last two nights he
has appeared before large and enthus-
iastic audiences in Oskaloosa and
Corning and tonight he will speak
to the people of Fairfield on advocacy
of sound republican doctrines.
At Oskaloosa on Wednesday night
Mr.. Cousins delivered an overwhelm-
ing onslaught on the pretensions of
free traders. He riddled the argu-
ments of the democrats against the
Dingley law and championed that
measure as only the eloquent fifth dis
trlct congressman can. Mr.. Cousins
called attention to the fact that the
impression has gone forth that the
Dlngiey tariff duties on iron and steel
is the most vulnerable point OF that
measure. However, Mr.. Cousins de-
monstrated in a most emphatic manner
that the duties on this line of products
contained in the Dingley law are the
same and in many cases actually low
ler than in the Wilson-Gorman act OF
1894. He presented such an array
OF facts and figures that should the
democratic orators attempt TO answer
they will be kept exceedingly busy
during the remainder of the campaign.
In truth his arguments in this connec-
ton We're unanswerable and his dis
cussion of this subject was one of
the best contributions to the republi-
can campaign material this fall.
AS TO the often mentioned question
OF the iron and steel corporation main
tanning monopoly in the United
States, Mr.. Cousins brought forward
figures to show that the output of this
combination is but SOL per cent of the
total product of this industry. Under
the operation of the present tariff Mr..
Cousins showed that last year SAT-
10000 worth of steel manufactured in
foreign countries was brought into the
United States. He demonstrated the
value OF this large industry in its eff
fects on the domestic market by Civ
ing employment to millions of men to
whom are paid millions OF dollars in
wages every year. And yet the free
traders propose to bring distress and
want to these millions of wage work
ers by compelling them to compete
with the product OF the cheap labor
OF other countries. a political fallacy
that has been repeatedly discredited
by stern reality.

EXPLAINS THAT BRAVERY.

Centerville Congressman
]. +. Lacey of the Sixth district, with
his usual clear way of putting things,
made it clear in his speech at Aller-
ton Tuesday why j. B. Sullivan, demo-
cratic candidate for governor is so out
spoken and seemingly so brave in ms
demand for radical tariff reform and
free trade. Mr.. Lacey said:
Mr.. Sullivan is n candidate for an
Office, where he cannot be- called upon
to vote upon the proposition OF chang
ing our tariff laws, and hence may be
bold upon the subject of remodeling
our industrial system. Having moth
ing to lose. he is very brave in his ex-
preston of willingness to tear The
Dingley Law up by the roots. Those
who are agitating the reversal OF our
industrial policy might We'll take a
short lesson in recent history.
In 1892 when prosperity was at high
tide, they preached the doctrine of tar
Tiff reform to the American people and
were given the power to carry out
their pledge. In 1894, two years later.

tion went cunning for the congress-

WHAT DO you WANTp

Bloomfield News-Republican- la
boring man said to us the other day
DO you understand that any political

then, and could not get STEADY work.
nowdI get from 81 to 81 per day, and
am busy all the time. What do they
want to do? All the boys in town are
at work al good wages. is not this good
enough?" The answer is the one that
every laboring man in Bloomfield can
make. When times are prosperous
the laborlng men get more TO do, and
receive higher wages. Here is the
whole problem, il we repeal the high
protective tariff laws, and the same
results follow that came under the
Wilson and German law, it will only
be a short time until the people will
demand change, just as they did at.
the close OF Clevelands administra-
ton, but should we be forced to
tariff for revenue basis again. it would
destroy our present prosperity and
cause much suffering. No man would
claim that change would erect more
factories in the country, employ more
laboring men, or broaden the demand
for the products of the farm. or that
money would get more plenty. and in
terests would be lower. No. tariff for
revenue would not increase the value
of your farms, or pay your debts. or
build more homes or pay higher
wages. A few years ago, the cry

PARALLELS in POLITICS.

Davenport Times-The story goes
that d reorganized Scott county demo-
crat the other day approached way
ward member of the party, and, be-
ing of religious turn of mind, began
to point out to him the lessons of the
parallels of the vineyard and the prod
igal son.
You know" said the recognized
one, those who came in at the elev-
enth hour received as much pay as
those who had been working all the
day" To which the maynard one re-
Piled:
Yes, but While you fellows We're
not working in the vineyard, you We're
on the hillside throwing stones at us
who worked, and you were not only
trying to hit those of us who were
working. but you tried also de de-
stroy the whole crop we We're trying
to raise"
This seemed puZZling statement
for it was true that While the silver
democrats of Scott county We're try
ing to uphold a party organization the
gold democrats did everything in their
power to cause their efforts to come
to naught. Then came an inspirations:
But you remember said the re-
organizer, ''how the eIring son came
back pei,itent to his fathers house and
they killed the fatted calf for him.
Surely you ought to receive us again
into good fellowship into your house
hold"
The parable does not say, my
friend, that the prodigal insisted that
none of the other members of the fam
lily should be allowed to have even a
small steak from that calf. He fain
would have been filled with the husks
the swine did eat. He said he was
not good enough to be his fathers
hired servant. He was truly penitent,"
said The so-called hayward democrat.
The fact is YOU reorganizers have
come back home and insist on being
the whole works, and we see no reason
why it should be So"
Thus ended the lesson.

RePusLIcAN COUNTY TICKET.
WILL HAVE CLEAN SWEEP.

clean sweep for the republican
party in Wapello county is what the
republican voters have determined on
for the election this fall. In all parts
OF the county republicans are display
ing unusual interest in the campaign
for an off year and are already active
ly engaged in the work of the cam
paign. Prospects for republican sue
that the democrats are discouraged as
they realize that the voters of Wapello
county are decidedly with the republic
can party on the issues which the
democrats have seen fit to present in
this campaign.
Another consideration that has en-
Unused the republicans OF Wapello
county for the battle this fall is that
they see in the outcome of the present
campaign how next falls election will
so. They are aware that with the
proper foundation work this fall it will
be easier to carry the county for Presi-
dent Roosevelt next year. In no cam
paign of recent years mas there been
greater harmony in the republican
ranks than is at present witnessed.
Every republican is working with ev-
cry other republican for the success of
the county and state tickets and this
is sure to result in success for the re-
publican nominees.
In contrast with the harmony and
enthusiasm of the republicans is the
passive discord in the democratic ranks
of the county that in some places
breaks into open friction. There is, too,
a lack of enthusiasm for the whole
democratic ticket and peculiar salts
faction with the present republican Off
GERS.
That there will be a continuation of
the good work among the republicans
of Wapello county cannot be doubted
and with this the success of the entire
state and county tickets at the polls
on Noyember3 3, will be assured.
