Iowa Falls. Dec. 10.--The Hardin
County Citizen. In Its last issue, ex-
presses the rather sensational opinion
that the cause for the financial trouble
in the Iowa Lillooet and Hawkeye gold
mining companles is not 81 local matter,
and that any acknowledgement In the
affairs OF the organization Is not at
trlbutable wholly to local members OF
the company. While net condoning the
actions and record Of many who have
been identified with the two Inflated
gold mining companies, 1t liz maintain
ed that the blame does not rest wholly
with local officials and directors, but
that non-residents located at Des
Moines. Cedar Rapids and other points
in the state are equally to blame. and
as deserving of censure as some Of the
men who have been thrown into the
limelight. The editor who expresses
this opinion has been interviewing all
elements involved In tfds affair and ar
rives at the above conclusion after a
careful study OF the situation as It
stands today. 1t Is animated In an
other article that the ultimate report
Of the affairs Of these companies will
bring to light some very disagreeabe
facts that will result In several prom
inent 1owans seeking to explain where
they are at and how 1t all happened.
In essence the EDITORS opinion Is that
no one man Is to blame for the condi-
tion OF the two companies, but that
on the other hand many are equally
culpable and that in the end the re-
sponsbility will be mtde to rest where
1t properly belongs, without regard as
to whom 1t may hit.

EDITOR COURIER.
Dear Si,:-In looking over the
Republican papers of the state I
find that in about every county
they have a favorite candidate to
fill some of the slate Offices.
What seems to be the matter
with Griggs county? Think we
have as good material as there is
in the state.
Now there is R. G. Cooper,
would make a number one Gov
enor, and I do not think he
would be hog enough to ask for
a third term, and there is David
Bartlett that has done a great
deal for the Republicans of the
state and has been poorly paid
for his work. He should be re.
considered at the coming con.
vention, and ! think it would be
the proper thing to nominate
Mr.. Bartlett for Judge as ther
all hands turn in and see that he
was elected. j. H. M.
