SENATOR SMITH FOR GOVERNOR.
MASON City Times Herbal
While the newspapers of the state
are casting about for suitable material
for governor, the Times Herald would
direct their attention tn Senator Smith
OF Usage. He has for I; number of
gears represented his district as sena-
tor, and more careful, painstaldng
able gentleman was nevel. in the SEN
ate of Iowa. What Senator Smith tells
you you can bank en- every time 1t
is about time the governor was chosen
from the north part of the state. While
there is excellent maternal in either
parts it is good thing TO pass these
good things around. Senator Smith is
q most successful financinr, is true
blue republican. and the party would
honor itself as well as honor a deserv-
ing man by selecting Senator Smith as
ernor.
PLAIN COMMON SENSE

The republican PARTY Of Iowa lis get
ting into a big fight thru what seems
to US more the ebstnacy and jealousy
of some of its leaders who are bound
to rule or ruin than any issue invol-
we'd. We never knew until this winter
that man could not be a good repub-
llcan and favor reciprocity Much of
the stuff one reads in the, Cedar. Rap
ids Republican and Dies Moines Capital
these days about the danger of the
United States being ruined by recipro-
City with Cardada is bosh. We spent
considerable time las. year and
the year before in Canada The above
papers would have one be.leve the
American market would be de-
stroyed by cheap horses and lumber
and barley and such products from
Canada. The fact is. horses are higher
in Canada than here. Lumber is about
the same. There is not much differ
ence in the price OF grain. Labor is in
great demand up there and commands
as liberal wages as here. Under siuch
conditions we fail to see how recipro-
city could do any great harm to the
United States. The lack Of 1t is fore
ing scores of manufacturing concerns
in the United States to go over into
Canada and erect great plants to sup
ply the rapidly increasing demand for
our products. This Canadian help Will
be employed to do what might be done
here at less expense with our own
labor.
SNAP SHOT OF j. w BLYTHE.
rWestey News-WorldJ
II you do not know who ana what
j. w. Blythe Is. go down to Des Moines
when there is a bill put forward In the
interest of the farmers and stock ship
peers and you will find out who he is.
We happened in Des Moines when the
bill was up compelling the railroads to
give transportation to stock shippers.
Arrayed on one side was J. w. Blythe
furnishing the brains, with the motor
ious Ed Hunter in ci1argts of the c'ern-
missary department acting as Blytliels
able second. While the railroad attor-
neys showed why 1t takes forty hours
to reach Chicago with stock, why coal
is more profitable to haul than cattle
and other things necessary do fool the
dear people, Hunter the obnoxious,
checks up the list and finds how many
they are short of the necessary number
to kill the bill. Also inctdemtly finds
out what is necessary to get the number
that are lacking. What is the other
side of the picture? A large de.ega-
ton of farmers and stock shippers
from over the state are there pleading
for their rights, paying their fare to.
Des Moines, paying their own expen-
SEES. Ask any of your friends who We're
in Des Moines, acting for the farmer
and the shipper, il he lis sor Blythe for
delegates large. Where was our
member of the legislature, Geo. w.
Hanna? He was right there in the
thickest of the fight, standing up for
the interests of the farmers and ship
pers. In fact. George has bill OF his
own If this one doesn't pass. Geo.
Hanna Is one of lhe heaviest Shippers
In Kossuth county. Ask Geo. Hanna If
j. w. Blythe or Ed Hunter can proper
ly represent this agricultural state IN
a national convention.
