Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1906-06-06

In the day OF the free silver craze
Governor Cummins was one of the
strongest advocates Of that doctrine as
will be seen by his famous letter to
DR.. Gorrell, of Newton, in which he
said:
'These considerations render a
single gold standard absolutely i'm
possible, or at least expressly
dangerous, for there is not enough of
that metal to give stability to the large
volume of currency or subsidiary coin
that must rest upon it,"
Therefore am in favor of the free
coinage of silver, being absolutely
sure it will not and cannot be coined
to excess. F"
Everybody knows that Gov. Cum
Minis was elected to the. state legisla-
ture in Polk county ON the democratic
ticket. He was first nominated By a
little coterie of disaffected republi.
cans and the regular democratic county
convention of Polk county instructed
it's committee to place Mr.. Cummins
name upon their ticket as q candidate
for the legislature. This way he defeat
cd one Of the regular republican nom-
inees and was for one session member
from Polk county.

GRAND PRIZES:
$4,000 HAMILTON PIANO.
$4,000 HOWARD PIANO.

We have two important announce
ments to make in connection with our
great double piano contest this week.
The first one is that on next Satur-
day, June 9th, we will give to the
young lady with the most votes in the
ballot box (barring Misses Grace
Christen, Lucille Norton and Marie
Hove, winners of former special
prizes) beautiful $500 Waltham
Ladies' Gold Watch, similar to the
one given to Miss Lucille Norton on
April 2lst. This is a handsome present
and will last lifetime, always keep
ing good time and reminding the win
ner Of the fact that she was the most
popular girl in Winneshiek county at
that time. We hope that lot of the
girls will work hard this week for this
handsome prize. Any one of them
can win it with a little work. Who
would not work hard for week for
$50. 90? It will be an exciting contest
for the race is close one and no one
has any idea who will win this watch.
We are also able to announce this
week the closing date of the great con-
test. the day upon which the two
handsome pianos will be given away.
1t will be on Saturday, June 3Oth.
This will give the girls whole month
| in which to finish the contest, and
you may be sure there will be some
tall hustling. None of the girls are
anywhere near winning piano as yet,
and there is no telling who will get
it. except that it will be the girl with
the most votes. Get to work quickly
now. There is little time to spare.
The second grand prize, the $500. 90
Howard piano, arrived on Friday and
is now on display in our office win
dow. where it is daily inspected by
scores Of admirers. Everyone who
sees it says that it is beauty, and
nearly everyone thinks it is the first
prize until they are told that it is
not. Several of the best musicians in
the city have tried it and they all say
without hesitation that it is q high
grade piano, with an especially fine
tone, and will grace any home in the
county. It is finished in golden oak,
a handsome case, and beautiful
high grade piano in every respect.
The other piano, a $4OO. 90 Hamilton,
will be here in few days, and will
surprise you all.
| From now until the finish there will
be nothing but hustling by the con-
testants. Not day passes but they
are bringing in lots of new subscri-
bers, and Public Opinion every week
becomes a welcome visitor to many
new homes, spreading the news and
the announcements of our merchants
broadcast throughout the county, and
at the same time helping some
young lady to win magnificent
prize.
Who will win the pianos?

While the old gray haired boys in
blue were marching in broken step to
the cemeteries at Cedar Falls last
Wednesday and placing garlands Of
flowers upon the graves of their de.
parted comrades, Senator Garst of
Warren county, one of the main shafts
Of the Cummins machine, got of the
train and proceeded to instruct the
veterans and citizens of that place to
turn down the old soldier candidate
for governor, George D. Perkins.
Failing to cut as wide a swath as
he anticipated. he went to the state
normal school and instructed the
faculty and student voters to forth
with get out and hustle for Cummins,
because he was chairman of the ap-
preparations committee in the senate
and would see that the appropriation
for the normal school was cut down
materially if they did not. The old
soldiers returned from the cemeteries
and when any of them remarked that
they were going to stand by their
old army comrade, Mr.. Garst cried
"cheap politics" at them. Such are
the methods Of the Cummins machine
everywhere. Anything, misrepresent.
alton, coercion, threats, anything to
win.

gentleman who takes the most interest

time he can spare boosting for Cum

WHAT OF cUMMINs' RECORD.
Cummins' Own Words Prove His Hostility
To Roosevelt and 10 the Iowa Farmer,
as Well as His Friendship for
Corporations.

L
OF course everybody in Iowa knows
that Gov. Cummins believes in i'm
mediate tariff revision. He had pro-
mulgated his views on this subject in
season and out of season and though
he claims that he stands with the pre-
sident, yet anyone can see that he
doesn't by glancing at the two extracts
which fellow:
Gov. Cummins said in his address
to the Polk County Republican club,
October 18th, 1905:
"The amount of graft of all the in
surance companies for all time will
not equal one-fifth of the amount of
which our people are robbed every
year by excessive tariff
President Roosevelt, in accepting
the republican nomination for presi-
dent, July 27th, 1904, said:
Eve have enacted a tariff law under
which during the past few years the
country has attained height of
material well being never before
reached"
Nothing further need be said on this
subject. These extracts plainly show
the immense distance between these
two men on the subject of the tariff.
Gov. Cummins' friends in Iowa are
also opposed to the President on this
question. The resolutions recently
adopted by the Cummins' convention
in Webster county declared
"We are convinced that an i'm
mediate revision of certain tariff
schedules is necessary and that no
alleged party expediency should cause
delay in the work incident thereto. !"
This resolution certainly sounds like
q plank from some democratic plat
form. It would certainly pass muster
in the room of the committee ON reso-
lutions of any democratic convention,
and it would find hosts of friends in
such company.
On the other hand the county con-
vention in Ringgold county which
instructed for Hon. Geo. d. Perkins
for governor. expressed it's, loyalty to
republican principles in the following
terms: Y. 49,
1--WE express our admiration for the
wisdom and craftsmanship of the leg
islative public servants who in 1897
gave us the Dingley protection law as
the advance agent of prosperity and
which has SO grandly fulfilled its
mission in bringing to us our admitted
and abounding prosperity. With be.
coming gratitude we rejoice in it and
express our appreciation of it. We ask
and insist that the business and indus
trial prosperity Of the country be not
disturbed, and go ON record as being
opposed to the free admission of Cana
dian products in open composition
with the products Of the western far
mer. -
What the tariff has done for the far
mer may be understood better perhaps
by practical example than by anything
in the line of argument. Just run
over the price list Of the farmers in 1895
and compare them with the prices
today and you will need no further
argument. The following market re-
ports are taken from record kept in
Story county, and show the prices paid
for the different commodities in 1896
as cOmp8red with the present time.

political address in the City of Des
Moines in support of the democratic
candidate for the legislature at the time
Gov. Boies was a candidate for second
term, and in that speech he eulogized
Gov. Boies, and said he had conferred
as great honor upon the state as any
of his predecessors and he hoped for
his reelection.
In 1888 he supported the democratic
candidate for county attorney in Polk
and published an open letter to the
people in which after saying that the
so-called Independents had asked
the democrats to nominate Phillips for
county attorney after he had been
turned down by the republican conven-
tion, that the democrats had nomina-
ted him, land we shall, as once here
tofore, fght with our friends the de-
mocrats to accomplish our object"
Returns from many counties in this
state where the Cummins machine has
made hard fight to secure the dele
gates to the state convention, indicate
that the governor, now, as in 1883, is
fighting with the assistance of "our
friends, the democrats to accomplish
our Object
Governor Cummnis has all along
protested that he was the friend of the
common people, that he believed in
the common people. in the farmers,
and that he would do all in his power
to further their interests. It will be
remembered that in his address to the
Polk county republican club, March
ID, 1908, the governor said.
1.-THE consumer is better entitled to
competition than the producer is to
protection.
Along the same line he said in his
Minneapolis speech April 80, 1909:
II believe that the consumer has a
better right to competition than the
producer to protection. Competition
we will have, that Of our own country
preferred, but that of the world if
necessary
In Governor Cummins' inaugural
address January IA. 1904, he said, in
arguing in behalf of what he claimed
would be the advantage of Canadian
reciprocity,
1T has been said that in order to
obtain these changes it will be neces-
sary for us to let into our markets
Canada's agricultural products of
some of them. / believe this to be
partially true; but let me ask the
farmers Of Iowa whether they think
they would lose in the exchange?'
The farmers of Iowa evidently be-
lieve that they would "lose in the
exchange -
When Governor Cumr,ins was a
witness before the Interstate Com
merce Committee of the senate, Gov
ernor Cummins said in answer to a
question of the chairman:
II think our people go into the east
ern market with butter and eggs upon
rate to which they are not entitled
with any fair adjustment -
Astonished at this statements, the
chairman asked:
Your people are not entitled to it?"
Governor Cummins reiterated as
follows: "They are not entitled to it
upon any fair adjustment of rates
throughout the United States
In this connection it is we'll to re-
member that one of the prominent
planks in the platform on which Hon.
George D. Perkins asks your support
reads rs follows:
"For the cheap long haul.'
Which Of these sentiments indicate
friendship for the farmer?

mocratic fusion the past six months is
being found out Where the people are

trickery and chicanery on the part Of
Cummins and his managers will not

The attempt to place Roosevelt and
Cuminins in the same class has fallen
flat. There is about as much simi.
iarity in their beliefs and practices AZ
in those Of Cleveland and Hearst in
the democratic party. Search as you
may, you cannot find . saying Of
Roosevelt's or one Of his official &C.
tions that can be construed as COM
|mending the course Of Cummins.
Practically all the federal appoint
ments In Iowa and Of Iowans are anti
Cummins mon; practically all Of
Iowa's distinguished representation
in Warrington are opposed to Cum
mins' fallacies; and we believe very
large proportion Of Iowa republicans,
not democrats, are opposed to his free
trade. Canadian reciprocity conun-
