BY this verdict the jury places the
value of the stock at a little over 3d.
$50, while Mr.. Meloy places his value
at over $4,000, and the insurance COM

Union, Ia, April 13.-Editor Times
Republican: In your paper Of March
10 our local candidate for representa-
tive, Mr. HI. c.. Chaplin, is misrepre-
sented by your Iowa Falls correspond
ent. Mr.. Chaplin is a progressive re-
publican of the first water. He stands
squarely on Governor Cummins' plat
form and is in hearty accord with, and
is an ardent supporter for, the square
deal for the people against corporation
rule. He is I'M sympathy with the
Cummins measures, such as the pri-
mary law, abolishing the railroad pass.
the railroad lobby, and is against the
Blythe Young Perkins aggregation
from start to finish. His progressive
republication need not be questioned
for moment.
The misrepresentation coming from
his opponents home, where his oppon-
ent is deeply interested in the Iowa
Falls & Des Moines railroad. and who
voted against the 2-cent fare BILL is
taken here as the first bit of mud
singing in the gubernatorial contest
in Hardin county. O. E. SMITH.
