Doesn't that article Just bristle with
harmony p" Isn't 1t an enthusiastic
endorsement? No doubt Mr.. Fullen will
cut 1t out and paste it In scrap book
along with other supplementary things
that have been or may be said about
him.
But what can be the reason for the
outburst? Mr.. Fullen hasn't done
anything, has he? He didn't have a
chance to do much in the county con.

chairman but In which he had no scat

rather hard on the Ottumwa man when

democratic candidate for congress In
the sixth Iowa district.
And the most remarkable feature of
the affair is the complete ''harmony''
in the democratic ranks. The whole
party is agreed that someone should
run for congress. 1t would be terrible
to nominate no one. And apparently
every man who has ever had any symp.

not to take the nomination. There is
harmony, If no place else.

worthy ut a better cause and more

Word comes from Des Moines to the
effect that the democrats are not
evincing any interest in matters polit-
ical as FIR as Iowa is concerned
Meanwhile the republican headquar-
tiers have been opened and the work of
organization is going right ahead.
Surely the democrats will, at least es-
tablish headquarters. There's no fun
in winning the election unless there
is little competition.

early in the season, decided to give

lican paper published in Williams
port, Pa. 1t is evident that the Re-
yublicans are sure of carrying every
measure in congress: but the idea
suggested in this editorial of the
Democrats in their weakness to
make no opposition, but on the con-
trary to give the Republicans plenty
rope so that in their sway they will
hang themselves, is in itself like
"forowarned torearmed." 1t is pcs
sible for the Republicans to over
reach the bounds, which in the next
election might rebound upon the
party with disastrous effect. We

A Bold Cotton Seed Thief.

Last Friday morning at o'clock
Mr.. Haskell Thomas and Mr.. Perry
Sartor in buggy together were re-
turning to Union from Carlisle where
they had been attending a thanks
giving dance given by the young
people Of Carlisle. AS these young
gentlemen came into the road lead
ing to Union just below the gin house
Of Mr.. Davis Gregory, which house
stands near the main road leading to
Mr.. ID. B. Fant's home, Mr.. Thomas
saw a man 60 into the gin house
door and saw wagon with two mules
hitched to it standing in the road i'm
mediately in front and below the gin
house door. AS they passed the
wagon they saw cotton seed Ia the
wagon body. They did not stop and
as they drove along Mr.. Thomas re-
marked that that wagon being loaded
with cotton seed at that time of the
morning looked little suspicious.
When they reached Mr.. Gregory's
dwelling house which stands close to
the road about three or four hundred
yards from the gin house In plain
view, Mr.. Thomas got out and told
Mr.. Sartor to drive on above the

The State is concerned were fully

many articles and editorials, COM

from the day of the establishment of

tune and inopportune in which to
oppose or advocate any measure or
policy looking to the general good
of the entire people. The State is
always discreet and never overdoes
anything and is therefore generally
successful in whatever it undertakes
to carry out.

COMING SESSION OF CONGRESS

lation, and, if it had, would not be
allowed by the Republican leaders
to undertake it. This season is sup
posed TO complete the business not
only of the Fifty-eighth congress,
but of the second Mckinley ad-
ministration whose policies President
Roosevelt promised TO execute.
This is not saying that there are
not other matters which could en-
gage the attention Of Congress at
this session. AS u matter of fact
there are a great many questions
which ought to settled and settled as
soon as possible. 1t is probable
that mcuch Of the opposition to Re
publican solutions Of these questions
will be withdrawn because tf over
wheIming Republican victory at the
polls on Nov. 8. Still, it is certain
that in the F,fty>ninth congress
there will be hardly enough Demo
Gratis to offer any opposition at all,
and the prospect Of being able to 90
it as they please, is much more al
Turing than the possibility of fighting
what opposition there may be at this
session of Congress. 1t is good pol>
icy for the Republicans to get all the
credit they can in the disposition of
questions confronting the country,
and the opportunity to do so is offer
ed by the Fifty-ninth congress.
On the other hand it might prove
good policy for the Democrats both
in the short session soon to be held,
and in the Fifty-ninth congress to
allow the Republicans full swing.
While the Republicans might gain
some credit it is very probable that
they will reap some discredit too; for,
when political party in control of
legislation has been allowed to legis,
late without critical opposition, mis-
takes have invariably resulted, and
have been made the basis Of political
argum ent by opponents in succeed
ing campaigns. Consequently, it
would not be surprising if the Demo
Gratis would be inclined to give the
Republicans all the rope they want
ed in the hope that they might hans
themselves.
Whatever the course pursued by
the Republicans or Democrats at
this short session it is very likely to
be punctuated by some very spicy
illusions to the recent campaign, and
terminated in many affected adieus
at its close because Of the large
number of Democrats who are to re
tire.
