Our Acknowledgements

During the past few weeks, the edi-
tor of this paper has been the recip-
lent of a large number OF very COM
plimentary notices written by brother
editors in different parts of the state
concerning his nomination for repre-
sentative. We hereby make kind ac-
acknowledgements to the bretheren with
the wish that we could meet their ex-
pectations. While some of our read
ers might be interested in reading
these notices, we feel that they are OF
more personal interest to the editor
than to the public, and only give the
following:
The newspaper friends of Editor ID.
G.. Mott, of the Audubon REPUBLI-
CAN, will extend him warm congratu-
lations on his recent nomination for
representative after hard fight Mr..
Mott has fully earned the honor
through his service for the republican
party in his newspaper and as county
chairman for number of years. He
is also fully qualified TO perform its
AubiNo WIN w SJdlc
county.-C. B. Nonpariel.
d. G. Mott, editor of the Audubon
REPUBLICAN, has been nominated by
the republicans as candidate for
representative from that county. Mr..
Mott is man of intelligence and as a
member of the house will be working
and influential representative of the
people. With men of his caliber and
character in the legislature, the inter-
ests of the people will be well looked
after and carefully guarded. Carroll
Herald.
Our old friend ID. c. Mott. of Audi
bon, was nominated for E q a. tafil ]
from that county at the recent repub-
lican county convention. Mr.. Mott
used to be editor of the What Cheer
Patriot and chairman of the republic
can county central committee back in
the SOS. II is largely due to his clean
and efficient work then that the way
from the democratic to the republican
column was paved for old Keokuk
county. The Herald congratulates
Audubon county on their good udg-
ment. -Hedrick Herald.

Think twice before you speak and
then talk to YOURSELF" is one of FL
bert Hubbard's new sayings. 1t may
not be new to Hubbard, but il is
news" to us. While it may not be
wisdom to always literally follow this
precept, as it might have tendency
to discourage the cultivation of So
cial qualities, yet it serves to draw
attention to the fact that we would all
be lots better of If we did not talk so
much about other peoples business.
Gossip, fault findings, criticisms on
Our neighbors and friends, chickering's,
prying into scandals and all such
stuff and much more ought to be cut
out OF our conversations.

Primary Election In Iowa.


From the Register and Leader
A number of the newspapers of the
state are discussing thorough-going
primary election law for Iowa. The
Iowa City Citizen says:
"Illinois has a primary election
law, but it is on the "local option
plan" and is not stringent enough.
The election of more Missouri and
Illinois legislators will bring about
one that will do some good. Iowa
should take warning and adopt a pri-
mary election law before it makes a
spectacle of itself. This is not saying
there is danger of Doodle in this state. -
And the Sac Sun in the same tenor
says:
1.-THE Sun does not hesitate to ex-
press the opinion that Iowa ought to
have law requiring the election OF
delegates to the county conventions by
primary system instead of the eau
Gus system, which really allows oppor-
tunity for fair expression of the
wishes of the people"
These papers and many others that
might be quoted, recognize the pre-
vailing sentiments not only in Iowa,
but in every state, for fairer method
of arriving at the wishes of the people
than are offered by the open caucus
system. Minnesota has taken the lead
in the west, and has enacted a pri-
mary election law that is accepted as
model. That it Is regarded as a
success is evident, because the legisla-
ture that has recently adjourned has
refused to amend it in any particular.
New Jersey has copied after the Min
nesota law, and Wisconsin also, al
though factional opposition to Gov
ernor La Toilette is creating a dead
lock in the legislature over minor de-
tails.
Senator Crossley, of Winterset, pre-
sented a meritorious bill to the last
Iowa Legislature, but it was not SER
iously considered. He has been max
ing thorough study of the subject
since, and will undoubtedly present a
new bill in the coming session, to
which he will without question be re-
turned. II he does, it will no doubt
meet with a different reception.
The primary election regulated by
the law and conducted by public Off
Gals has come to stay. 1t insures a
fairer and more orderly method of
testing public sentiment than the old
fashioned caucus, and will supercede
it. Iowa cannot afford to be behind.

Hon. II. w. Byers got home Mon
day morning. He did not stop al
Keokuk, as was announced last week,
but accompanied Governor Cummins'
party to st. Louis, where the party
assisted in the dedication of the
worlds fair buildings. Governor
Cummins also laid the corner stone OF
the Iowa building. Mr.. Byers stop
ped to see his farm at Rush Hill, Mo.
on his way home, and visited Perry

TOO GREAT RISK,

In almost every neighborhood some
one has died from an attack of collie
or cholera morbus, often before a
physician could be procured. A reli-
able remedy for these diseases should
be kept at hand. The risk is too great
for any one to take. Chamberlain
Collie Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
has undoubtedly saved the lives of
more people and relieved more pain
and suffering than any other medicine
in use. 1t can always be depended on.

GREATLY ALARMED


Mr.. II. ?. Burbage, a student at
law in Greenville, S. c., had been
troubled for four or five years with a
continuous cough which he says great
lly alarmed him, causing him to think
he was in the first stages of consump-
ton. Mr.. Burbage, having seen
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy adver-
tised, concluded to try it. Now read
what he says of it: 81 soon felt a re-
markable change and after using two
bottles of the twenty-five cent size,
was permanently cured" Sold by A..

lively. Any imitation of his style

think it may be worth while to bring
to notice 4 few of the many others
