have done in years. And it was not
done then in order to be fair, but the
standlatters in the legislature wanted
to defeat the primary law and con.
coded t:@at much to the Democrats if
they would help them let go of the
primary law
The primary law may come yet, but
the Democrats who took advantage of
the situation and got their concession
are entitled to a high monument in
token of the gratitude we feel towards
them. 1t was master stroke. And
1t was square deal. The Republic.
ans talk great sight about what
they call a square deal, but there was
nothing fair or right about the ballot
with the circle. 1t tended to confuse
the voter and served no good purpose
whatsoever. All it did was to intimi-
date the voter and make it almost i'm.
possible for him to vote anything but
the straight ticket.
We say it was unfair for that very
purpose because there is no argument
except partisan expediency in the So.
called straight ticket" Any chump
can vote the straight ticket, but when
it comes to discriminating and select.
ing the wheat from the chaff and
| throwing out the bad and holding fast
| to the good, it takes some thought and
some brain and some sense. With the
circle removed from the ballot there
is no chance for confusion and every
chance for using ones judgment.
So now, when you do not wish to
vote the entire ticket, you can place a
cross before every name. Indeed, you
have to do that. 1t is the only way.
There is no danger of losing your vote
and instead of confusing the voter it
helps to arrive at the conclusion he
wishes.
So if Major Lacey, whom we respect
as an able man, will excuse us, we
will disagree with him on this propo-
sition and we will say that the re-
moval of the circle was step in the
direction of good government, although
that was not the object the stand
patters had in view. And we owe a
debt of gratitude to the Democrats
who were wise enough to bring il
about.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1906-10-04

Jack Dalton is editor of the Manson
Democrat, one of the brightest papers
in Iowa. Not because it is Democratic
do we say this, but because Jack is
one of the bright fellows running a
newspaper. He says in a recent issue
of his paper: "The Central City News
Letter, a strong Republican paper
published at Central City, in Linn
county, publishes the ticket with the
names Of Porter and Denison substi-
tuted for Cummins and Garst. The
Newsletter is edited by AL Brown. a
man whose Republieanism is attested
by the fact that he left an arm upon a
southern battlefield where he fought in
defense of the flag"
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1906-10-04

Senator Joe Foraker and Senator
Dick have placed detectives on the
trail Of Alice Longworth for the pur.
pose of ascertaining whether her pop.
ularity is due to her father or to her
self. They are fighting the president
in Ohio and are anxious to know how
strong he really is. OF course, the
story may be lie, but we got it out
of a Republican paper and therefore
no sin can be laid at a Democrat s
door. What beautiful Republican har
mCny?

of Governor Cummins and hold the
office of governor.

Caroline Osborn of Baskerville, N. Y,
was not allowed by her father to wed
the man Of her choice, SO she took a
vow never to look at man again
She must have been a Cummins Re
publican, for they say if Cummins is
not elected governor there will be nc
other man to elect. Isn't it funny that
Iowa has only one man fit to be gov.
ernor?

Governor Cummins spoke at EN-
metsburg last week to crowd of
about 500 people. The fair was in
progress and the management expect
ed him to draw big crowd, but he
didn't draw as we'll as the prize

days.

Removing the Circle.

Major Lacey, candidate for con-
gress in the Sixth district, says the
removal Of the circle from the ballot
is a mistake. Much as we dislike to
disagree with our distinguished friend,

at this stage of the game. 1t was the
fairest thing the Republicans of Iowa
