Men make presidents, support parties

individual voter who thinks is the bar

extraordinary occasion to stir the
calmness of his self-control. But he

cummINs SPOKE FOR HIMSELF.

Governor Cumnins spoke in Mar
shalltown Saturday. He had spoken
at Britt in the extreme northern part
of the state Thursday, had then trav-
eled to the extreme southern part OF
the state by way of several branch lines
of road, spoken in Bedford Friday and
driven eighteen miles to Blockton for
another speech that same day, then
another long drive and night ride
to get home for sleep in the forenoon.
He was tired and lacked his well known
vigor in the opening of his address
but before he had finished he had made
good speech.
The notable utterance of the whole
address and the one upon which the
greatest interest among Marshalltown
listeners hung, was his statement Of his
own position as to the tariff and reci-
procity. The governor has been the
object of bitter personal attack on the
part Of INSCRIPTIONS men who have
sought to use him for their own selfish
purposes and failed. The T.-R. had
tried to give him honest representation
and state his position fairly, but Ger
tain political critics, Influenced from
the outside, have repeatedly told Mar
shall county people that the T.-R. lied
Hence it was that when the governor
spoke for himself more than a thou
sand listeners bent forward in breath
less expectancy.
And what did they hear? Why, the
T.-R was vindicated. The governor
explained that everybody knew he
stood for some reduction of the pres
emit tariff schedules, that he wanted
them reduced because he believed a
law passed seven years ago now need
ed some readjustment, but that he
stood for republican readjustment
and would rather wait forever than ac-
cept revision by a democratic congress-
The reciprocity of Blaine and Nc
Kinley was his reciprocity. The one
notable portion Of the governors ad-
dress in Marshalltown, was this state
ment, in which he spoke for himself
and his fellow republicans went away

4 CHANGE IN THE POLITICAL TIMES.

Notwithstanding much railing at the
new times and tendencies of modern
politics we do some things vastly bet
ter than our forefathers. An article
descriptive of the famous presidential
campaign which resulted in the cleo
ton Of "Tippecanoe" Harrison and Ty-
Ter, recently published in widely cir
culated eastern magazine, serves
to recall to the oldest voters the scenes
of earlier presidential contests marked
more with intense excitement and par
wisan vigor of act and expression than
nv calm judgment and logical selec-
ton. In those old days men stabbed
one another in disputes over the seri-
Gus question which Mrs. Andrew jack
son did or did not smoke a pipe. Per-
sonal defects were exaggerated for
political effect. Catchwords and cam
paign songs, ridicule and prejudice en-
tered vitality into the result of cleo
lions. A glib and witty stump speak
er turned the votes Of communities ana
counties. Men voted from impulse,
prejudice and propinquity. The voters
went in herds and appear to have been
easily stampeded. 1t requires no great
shouting PROFESSIONS Of men in oily
cloth tabards, an army with banners
and flaming torches, We're features and
vote getters in every great campaign.
The trouble began early and lasted
thru the summer into November. There
were vigorous discussions at all the
blacksmith shops and on the street
where each spokesman had his knot OF
,sympathizers and supporters. What
these impromptu debates lacked In
logic they counterbalanced with zeal
The store box orator might be brought
to the admission that every member
of the opposition was not horse thief
but he stood pat on the proposition
that every horse thief belonged to the
opposite party. Physical demonstra-
tions were not uncommon between In
tense and choleric partisans. Eheu
fugaces! The good old times when
"politics was politics and everything
was suspended for the nonce while we
nuarreled delightfully."- for a whole
summer. They We're good for the cir
culation but bad for business.
we do the thing better nowadays
with less fuss and fun and more COM
mon sense and benefit. The campaign
orator is at a discount. Education has
made him luxury instead OF a neces-
sity and the newspaper has taken his
place as purveyor of political news

BUSINESS AT LEADING POINTS.

Chicago-Jobbing trade was re-en-
forced by the arrival of visiting buy
ers from many interior points. The
new business negotiated in the sta
pie departments made an excellent
comparison with that a year ago.
There was good buying of general dry
goods woolens, house furnishing and
cotton goods. Some Improvement ap>
pears in the demand for boots ana
shoes, clothing and ladies' suits, and
increased bookings were made in mil
Warehouse shipments are now reach-
ing large proportions and some sec,
tons made calls for urgent delivery,
stocks on hand being very low. Mer-
camille collections have been found
satisfactorily prompt.
Boston-At first hands cotton goods
are doing better in many branches
and considerable idle machinery has
been put to work since the first of the
month. Reports from the wooden mills
show that industry to be fairly well
occupied, with manufacturers report
ing the prospects for the next heavy~
weight season bright for large moves
ment and higher prices. Liberal COW
erings in the raw material show that
wooden and worsted manufacturers
look for a busy winter. The improves
ment in worsted departments is espec>
tally marked, owing to their recently
depression.
Philadelphia-Co Conditions in the Phil
adelphia textile goods market remain
unchanged. Manufacturers with few
exceptions are working only to par
tial capacity and the season thus far
has been unsatisfactory.
Minneapolis-The continued rise in
wheat prices and corresponding in
crease in flour have effectually stop
ped all sales, except for actual re-
quirements, and as stocks all over the
country are getting low, orders are
commencing to appear from sheer me-
cessity. The situation is very unsat-
isfactory to both buyer and seller.
Only about one half of the local mills
are in operation, and these are rum
ming on short time only. Prices arc
high and will necessarily go higher
unless a substantial reaction in the
wheat market takes place.
st. Joseph-Wholesale milliners are
doing brisk business, sales comparing
favorably with last year. Trade In
dry goods, hats and footwear is quite
active. In hardware, harness, groc-
cries and drugs business is steady and
satisfactory. Shoe and mems fur
nishing goods factories are fully em-
ployed. Collections are good.
Kansas City - Wholesale dry goods
business is fairly large In volume, and
houses consider the outlook favorable.
There is a good demand for drugs, gro
ceries and footwear. Millinery hous-
eS are DONG quite wen, Dut Tile Voluiie
of business is not what was an
ticipated. Hardware and Implement
business is fairly active. Collections
are fair. Cooler weather has stimu-
lated retail trade.
Liabilities of commercial firms thus
far reported for September aggregated
s3,23o,s4s, of which s1,169,677 were In
manufacturing, $1,691,122 in Grading,
and s369,549 in other commercial lines.
Failures this week amounted to 224 in
the United States against 219 last year
and 21 in Canada compared with 10 a

Suppose that our eyes were attuned
to the vibrations revealed to us by the
bolometer. Instead of seeing the stars
that we now see we should perceive
those whose light has long been extin-
guished, whose existence the methods
of modern physics have enabled us to
prove The sun would appear surround
ed by its corona, changing in form and
position every instant, and we should
no longer be obliged to wait for total
eclipses to study this phenomenon. Cur
rents of hot air would become visible
like snow squalls, and the science Of
heat would hsve no more secrets.

DISRESPECTFULLY DECLINED.
rRoone independently

The independent has been favored
with an invitation to a convention
of all editors who favor the election
of Parker and Davis, to meet in New
York The gentlemanly zap who sent
the bid has another guess coming. If
Parker and Davis were the last two
men on Gods green earth, we wouldn't
vote for them, much less take trip to
New York to give them a send off.
The Independents interests are with
the laboring people, and whenever we
cast a vote for a judge for president
who declared the eight hour law un-
constitutional, and a mine owner for
vice president who got out an injunc-
ton to prevent anybody feeding the
starving families of miners, we want
some able-bodied cuss to come around
and give us enough swift kicks to
make our nose bleed.
