trict, and won by vote of AZ to 3S in
the republican caucus, having lined up

tion.
TreWin Not in Race.
1t was the subject of gossip during
the recent republican convention, also,
that James H. Trewin of Cedar Rapids
might be candidate for governor at
the next contest. Mr. Trewin said that
there was nothing to the talk. He con-
sented to go on the ticket this year as
candidate for elector-at-large because
of his intense interest in seeing Iowa
at the forefront of the states in line for
the true faith of republicanism, and
with the intention of devoting several
weeks of his time to the campaign, but
he was not candidate for the nomi-
nation in any sense of the word. His
availability was first suggested in an
interview with some politicians in the
Register and Leader.

Holds Conference With Mayor.


The position which Mr.. Bryan will
assume during the coming campaign
was indicated by him yesterday after
he had held another secret conference
with Mayor Harrison.
After this conference he stated that
he did not contemplate making any po-
litical speeches except in the state of
Missouri, during the campaign and
that he would deliver addresses only
as paid lecturer for the Chautauqua
bureau, with which he Is connected.
He announced positively that he would
not accept the invitation extended to
him by the city hall democrats to ad-
dress their picnic on August 20, stat
ing as his reason for declining it that
he was engaged to lecture on the day
of the picnic.
Will Not Discuss Platform.
Beyond discussing his plans for
making speeches during the campaign
Mr.. Bryan had little to say. He avoid
ed entering into any discussion as to
the merits of the democratic platform
or the qualifications Of the candidates
of the democratic national convention.
Mr. Bryan arrived in the city yes.
terday morning and went to the Sher.
man house, where he spent most of his
time while in the city. He left his no.

of democratic candidates for congress

little, if anything, to aid the national

to be dangerous, and he returned
home on the s. clock train.--Wet-

The republican party recklessly
squanders more money than the
democratic Or peoples party
would. While they are in power
they want to rule or ruin and ev-
entualIy have done both. You've
heard the story Of the two women
who had babes the same age living in
the same house together and Sleep
ing in the same bed. One of the
women having lain on her babe
during the night, she claimed
the other babe. Being unable to
decide between them they appear
ed before King Solomon who took
his sword and, holding the child,
said he would cut it in two and give
each half. This was satisfactory
with the one but the real mother
stayed his hand for love of her
child and offered to relinquish her
claim.

How can a republican conscient-

such record as their party has
made in Nebraska? Yet you will
hear few old stitfs get out and
say that they are proud of being a
republican, of the party for what
party has done and will tell you the
that the republican party is the
one for you to vote for if you want
to be on the winning side.

Gov. Mickey attempts to clear
himself by presenting "a few
facts on the coal oil scandalP'
and practically rdmits everything
charged against him to be true.
Mickey gives lame excuse for
his admitting oil below the test.
For the same excuse Mickey gives,
the Standard Oil company could
claim that they had oil enough on
to supply the state for ten years
and Mickey would think it was
necessary to admit the oil contrary
to law so as to not appear little
and Narrow compelling the
Standard Oil Co. to manufacture
better oil for our use. Mickey
excuses himself in the first part of
his few facts" by saying oil in
spectOr Hayes dldn t notify agent
Ruth, representing the Standard
Oil company, until April IA, four
days after the law went into eff
feet of the required higher test
for oil, and in the latter part of
his few facts he accuses Hayes of
notifying Ruth by telegram on the
day the senate passed the bill. The
plain facts are, Mickey, that YOU
were helping the Standard Oil Co.
to override the law requiring
higher test for oil, and we fear
that you never yequired the oil to
meet the test up to the present
time, your statement to the con-
trary notwithstanding.

In 1900 the republicans said:
"Vote for Mckinley and retain
a high price of cattle.' Mckinley
received the vote, but where is the
price of cattle today: Not worth
one-half as much as they were then,
but selling for more on the block
to the consumer. We don't know
whether they call this protection
or not, but we do know that the
stock grower is not getting paid
TO-: raising cattle, nor does the man
that eats it get the benefit, so the
man that buys and sells must be
reaping a rich harvest. If this is
protection it means that a few men
are protected so that they can rob
the masses of the people.-Har-

from Gov. Mickey's report in try

get that debt: What party is re-
sponsible for it! How can a re-

Carter Harrison, mayor of Chi
cago, did not dismiss his theater or
building inspector for refusing to
report buildings to be fine proof,
nor was the mayor informed of
the inspectors incompetency at
any time, yet he was arrested and
charged with being responsible for
the crime of the burning Of the
Iroquois theater. A much strong
er case could be made out against
Gov. Mickey, he having deliber-
ately dismissed his oil inspector
for refusing to admit poor oil and
appointed one who admitted the
oil. If a part of this oil was that
which exploded in numerous
lamps with several fatalities then is
not Gov. Mickey the cause of these
accidentsl We know that he is
the cause of our having to use the
poor quality Of oil that we have all
experienced the past year.

under all the accusations against
Gov. Mickey, to vote for him for

defense of your voting for him,
that you have no assurance that

worthy of your support. 1t is
