lection you are a republican.

THE TICKET.

Vinton Eagle: The republican party
has in the field this year as fine a ticket,
from top to bottom, as it ever put in the
field. The old nominees are tried and
true in the interests of the state. Gov
! ernor Cummins has served the state as
governor for four and a half years, and
1t can be said the state never had better
service. He has been true to the state
never had better service. He has been
true to the state and every piece Of busi-
ness passing his office receives the clos
est scrutiny. The same can be truthfully
said of each and every man who has
been renominated. OF the new nominees
Warren Garst has been a membep of the
state senate for the past twelve years,
major portion of the time being chair
man of the senate committee on appro-
priations. In that position he has made
an enVtable reputation, the conduct OF the
important affairs coming before that
committee being such that 1t brought him
into prominent notice in the state. w,
c. Hayward was also a member of the
senate and was chairman of the ways
and means committee, a committee as
prominent as the one in charge of Sem
ator Garst. What can be said Of Garst

VICE PRESIDENT FAIRBANKS SPEAKS
IN INTEREST OF TICKET IN IOWA
PATRIOTIC WORDS OF THE VICE PRESIDENT IN GREAT
HELD AT WATERLOO.
RepubIicans-Issues Are All Important

Vice President Fairbanks spoke to a
large audience in Waterloo, Oct. 13, for
mally opening the republican campaign
in the Third district. He spoke along
general lines and in behalf of the repub-
hcan party. He declared a democratic
majority in the house this fall would
mean disaster tot he country. He en-
dorsed Governor Cummins and recon-
mended his reelection. Fairbanks said:
The state of Iowa Is to be congratu-
lated for many things which distinguish
her as progressive commonwealth.
She is especially entitled to cOngratula-
ton for her high-mnded citizenship and
for the number and worth of her states
men. Her distinguished governor, Albert
B. Cummins, is clean, high-minded, pa
triotic American, who believes that a
public office Is public trust which
should be administered with fidelity. Her
splendid senators, William B. Allison and
Jonathan P. Dolliver are among the
United States senate. Iowa has the rare
distinction of having two members of

THE REPUBLICAN RECORD
A Party That Has Done Things and
Which Has a Definite Programme
for Success.

Gems from recent speech by Congress
man Albert F. Dawson:
Republicanism stands for honesty in
public life.
The ffty-ninth congress will go down
In history as the Congress of Achieve
ment."
The republican party has established
the standard Of the square deal
The past ten years will be known in
history as the era Of prosperity and hap
pinesS.
The republican party Is not living in
the past; It has Its face set toward the
future.
The present administration has handled
the business OF the government wisely
and well.
William Mckinley was elected in 1896 as
the Advance Agent Of Prosperity" and
he delivered the goods.
The republican party in this campaign
will appeal to the judgment Of men, and
not to their passions.
The national credit was never so high;
our prestige was never 50 great among
the nations Of the earth.
The results of the past ten years have
stamped the republican party as the pro-
gresstve party Of the nation.

ment of his party into the fold by declar-

said
Among the things accomplished recently
by the republican party Is the railroad

its record Of honest, efficient and busi-
