THE republicans of Iowa congrat-
ulate the country upon the general
prosperity which prevails; upon the
triumph of the home and foreign poll
cies of the republican party; the wise
policies which have been provided, and
the fulfillment Of the pledges of the
party.
1--WE congratulate the country also
upon the adjustment of the Alaskan
boundary dispute and work done In
preventing the partition of China, anu
for the assertiye American rights in
the far east.
I'VE are proud of the influence OF
Iowa's two members of the cabinet
Secretaries Shaw and Wilson-and OF
the constant, able and wise influence
that at all times is exercised by Iowa
members of the senate and house.
1--WE commend the record OF Gov.
Cummins and the various state oHlcers
In the successful management of the
official affairs Of the state.
1--WE indorse the administration of
President Theodore Roosevelt ,and in

circumstances took up the presidency
with a full appreciation of the respon-
sibilities of the position. Ills course
has been able, courageous. patriotic;
he has had no ambition but to serve his
country. We commend him for mis-
general acts of administration. we

wisdom have attracted the admlfa-

the world at large. He is the worthy
successor of William Mckinley whose

mourn.
I'VE believe in the reciprocity tarif
which builds American factories, makes
possible great and small American
Industries, and gives employment to
american labor. We believe in the
american home market for the pro-
lucts Of American farms, factories and
hops. We believe ii unwise to seek

the consumer and working man"
Support is pledged to the Interstate
