IOWA lfikioNs AND NOTES.

With Iowa banks well filled with
| the dollars of Iowa farmers, with the
fields producing heavy yield of grain
| and fruit, and with the commercial

| to spend very comfortable winter
remarks the Keokuk Gate City.
Judging from the reports that
| come over the district about the only
| question involved in the present cor
sressional election is as to the size ot
| Congressman Dawson.s majority"
concludes the Muscatine Journal
The voters this year are not going
to take any risks. They know when
they have a good thing and they are
going to keep it."
The time for forgetting your polit-
cal troubles is rapidly approaching"
says the Council Bluffs Nonpareil.
The compensation of a clear con-
science on the day following an cleo
ton, resulting from the fact that you
have voted the straight republican
ticket, is far more satisfactory than
the consciousness that you have per-
mitted prejudice to warn your iudg-
ment to the extent of scratching the
ticket"

ator Allison's expected death was con-
siderably exaggerated observes the

The Sioux City Journal says "a
South Dakota young man visited the
south in search of pleasure and made
his first stop at Atlanta just in time
to get in on the open season for me-
groes. He hurriedly jumped to Mo-
bile and just connected with the hur-
ricane. The young man is now en-
route for the north humming content

Keep your eye on Marshalltown"
advices the Hawk Eye. "They are not
saying much, but the people there. that
is the people who do things, have TAX
en- up the denatured alcohol PROPOSE
ton. And ere the rest of the state has
got to the interesting stage of the dis
cussion, Marshalltown may be am
nouncing that she has got her dena-
turized alcohol factory started and she
will be asking the others to come over
and have a look around and bring a
jug along and help themselves. For
they have a way of doing things in
Marshalltown."
Referring to the Sioux City Journals
misstatement that Governor Cumn,ins
is saying II am a standpatter," the
Tribune declares: knowledge that
Cummins never at any time said any,
thing of the sort doesn't deter Mr.. Per-
kins from putting the words in his
mouth. And yet Mr.. Perkins holds up
his hands with hypocritical horror at
the other yellow newspapers"
The Freeman-Trib cannot UNDER
stand chow republican who is pro-
tectionist can vote for a candidate
standing upon a tariff for revenue
that those so voting are controlled
more by desire for revenge than by
principle"
Noticing that proprietors OF pub
lie sales are awakening to the advan-
tages of newspaper advertising, the

newspaper advertising may bring a
hundred more men to your sale;

made money for the owner
"The people of the state Of New
York have most important duty to
perform this fall" affirms tae Dav-
export Times. They must choose be-
tween Hearst and Hughes. They mus,
choose between boasting promises and
the probability of conservative per-
Torrance. They must select for gov
ernor either man whose life has been
devoted to arousing class hatreds and
to seeking self ggrandizement from
the discomfort which he has produced,
or man who has been quietly lay
ing the foundation of merited success
by self development and conscientious
endeavor."
