FEARLESS AND INDEPENDENT.


The Chicago Record Herald is con-
spicuous example Of the success with
which the public rewards fearless nom
partisanship in the columns OF a great
metropolitan daily paper. 1t is an
independent newspaper, in which men
and measures are invariable viewed
wholly from the standpoint of the pub
lie good and not from that of the inter-
ests of any particular political party.
1t is the very reverse of nuetral-tear-
less and outspoken on all the great
questions Of the day, but presenting its
editorial opinion upon independent
judgment and entirely regardless OF
political offiations. Partisanship is
barred as strictly from the news col
ums as from the editorial page All
political news enabling the reader to
form correct conclusions for himself.
In the ordinary partisan newspaper
political news is usually colored to
such an extent as to make it difficult
if not impossible Tor the reader to Sc.
cure sound basis for Intelligent judg-
ment.

I think it will be a good and profitable
Investment. The company will have

It is indeed a pleasure that we
are permitted to present to our
readers the true likeness of Judge
S. F. Prouty, who is candidate
for the republican nomination of
the seventh congressional dis
trict.
Judge Prouty is an 1owan,
born on his fathers farm in
Marion county SO years ago where
he was raised; having a hard
struggle for an education. After
finishing the common school he
entered the Central College at
Pella, Iowa where he continued
to struggle for higher education,
waiting table for his board, al
though graduating at the head
Of his class with honors. While
in college, when he was only 22
years of age, was nominated on
the republican ticket for the legis-
lature and elected over his demo-
cratic opponent in a democratic
county. He was admitted to the
bar and practiced law in Knox
vile several years. Later he
moved to Des Moines and entered
the practice in with Earl, and by
his ability, honesty and fair deal

Governor Bailey has withdrawn
from the gubernatorial canvass
in Kansas, and a newspaper man
will probably get the nomination.
One of the main causes of the
present governors withdrawal
was the opposition of the Negro
voters and Negro newspapers.
He insulted them and they re-
sented it and were carrying the
war into the caucuses and the
primaries. The fight will have
a wholesome effect on the politics
Of Kansas and will bring to the
Negro voters consideration and
fair treatment. The Negro vote
in that state is large and united.

Notwithstanding these reports
of the captain it is learned that
Mr.. Heury McCraveu is support
ing him for denomination. There
has been no change in the con-
ditions from two years ago, and
at that time Mr.. McCraven was
for Judge Prouty. Why this
sudden change? There seems to
be a hidden and unexplained
reason for him to indorse a man
holding such views in regard to
Negro suffrage and mob violence
and the state of anarchy existing.
If Captain Hull stands squarely on
! republican principles and platforms he
must be opposed to the violation of the
| 18th, 14th and 18th amendments to
the constitution. Besides this, he takes
| An obligation before he can become d
| member of congress. We have been
unable to find any record to show that
| the genial captain has supported any
of the measures which have been be-
fore congress and which are designed
to check these growing evils and bring
greater respect for law and order. 1t
is not special legislation that the ne
gro wants, but the enforcement OF OK
listing laws and the protection guaran-
teed by them.
1t comes with i'll grace for the cap
tain to advise negroes to do something
for themselves. In the light of his
tory it can be shown that the negroes
Of America have achieved more than
any other race under the conditions
and obstacles which they nave had to
overcome and surmount. The door
of equal opportunity has been closed
in their faces and black skin over
brains and character fails of recogni-
tion. The negro is willing to WORK
up. He does not expect to advance
by leaps and bounds. He does not
expect to go from Camp Mckinley in
Des Moines to the position of Judge
advocate in the regular army when
he has neither experience nor ability.
General Grant and General Lee were
graduates from West Point, and their
rise was slow and laborious, but they
earned every promotion they received
and when they reached the top round
they were able to look back and see
what their ability had won for them
There was no political manipulation
in their promotion. Nepotism is the
bane of affairs in this congressional
district.
Negro Boy Won, But Lost.
Several years ago there was ;leld
an examination for a cadet to Annap-
oils Naval academy. A negro boy
named Jackson was one OF the con-
testants. Captain Hull was the con
gressman and young DR.. Hull Gather
and sony was the examining physi-
clan. This was before his father got
him anchored in a soldiers home as
a physician.
In the mental examinations Jackson
defeated his opponents. It was then
up to DR.. Hull and the young JACKSON
lost the place on physical examina-
ton. 1t has been alleged by one OF
the oldest politicians and ex-state Off
cial that there was something rotten
in Denmark" Since that time, l have
been informed that young Jackson
has been able to pass the examina-
tion and secure insurance in an ole
line company. Mr.. Jackson has been
in the employ ofthe Armour Packing
Company, Chicago. and has a respon-
sible and lucrative position.

! trict would like to have Captain Hull

PURIfICATION OF
THE BALLOT

Editor of the Iowa STATE BY
sTANDER: In last weeks paper
gave few remarks of the purifi-
cation of the ballot, and it is
hoped that every reader will give
the subject serious consideration.
On the 29th day of February
this county will be called upon to
make a choice as to who shall be
the republican candidate for con-
gressman. The two candidates
are c pt. J. A. II. Hull, the pres
ent incumbent, and Judge S. F.
Prouty.
Captain Hull has held his pres
ent office for seven terms. The
memory of the oldest inhabitant
does not recall the time when the
genial captain did not hold an
Office. TO leave his name off
republican tickets would be like
leaving Lydia Pinkham's picture
or Hostetter's Bitters and St.
Jacobs Oil advertisements out of
daily newspaper.
The congressional contest now
on is of great Importance to the
common people of this district and
means much for the future. At
ter service of fourteen years in
congress the captain should run
on his record. In the discussion
which may follow nothing will
be done that is unfair or smacks
of pettifogging or special plead
ing.
Political Flopper.
Two years ago there was con-
test between these same gentle
mentor the nomination. At that
time Mr.. Henry McCraven report
ed, as one of a committee, certain
alleged facts in regard to the re-
ply of Captain Hull in answer to
queries put to him by the COM
mittee. We have yet to learn
that his replies were not sub
stantially as reported. .~
In answer to question as to
whether or not congress could do
something in regard to the dis
franchisement and mob violence
and state of anarchy existing
in the South, the captain is re-
ported to have said substantially
"that there were more important
matters before congress and the
American people than these
questions" and "that it was time
the Negroes were doing some
thing for themselves.'''
