Normal Majority
LAST WORD TO THE VOTERS
Iowa Expected to Stand With Her Sis
tor States in Loyalty to Republican
Principlcs and Loyalty to the Pres
ident - Vast Importance Of the
Result.
Special to Times Republican.

Des Moines, Nov. 3.-Frank P.
Woods, chairman OF the republican
state central committee, today gave
out the following official statement as
that of the republican committee with
regard to the campaign:
I'VE believe that next Tuesday. Iowa
will send out word to her sister states
that she stands loyalty by the re-
publican party, that she again in
dorses republican policies, and that
she sustains to the fullest extent hon.
est. capable and aggressive public Of
f1cials in state and nation. We have
had a short campaign but the issues
for which we stand have been fairly
presented to the voters, and we have
an organization reaching into every
precinct thru which we believe that
a large vote will be got out From
the reports of our organization we feel
justified in assuring Iowa republicans
that there will be substantially the
normal republican majority. 1t is evil
dent that In some places candidates for
state Offices, congress and the legis-
lature will be scratched; but we be-
lieve every nominee of the republican
party for state office will have up
wards of $4,000 plurality. that at least
nine republican nominees for congress
will be elected and that the republi-
cams will have not less than ninety
five members in the state legislature.
Our reports from committeeman show
much larger plurality for the state
ticket II the republicans do their
duty and all Loyalty support the en-
tire ticket in the two doubtful districts
then every republican candidate for
congress will be elected and the ma
jority in the legislature. will be ma
terially increased. We have urged
every county and precinct committee
man and everyone we have been able
to reach to assist in getting out the
cast for the entire republican ticket.
"The result Of the election Is of
vast Importance. The issues are clear.
In this campaign, more than before,
for many years, there Is open boast of
the political corporations that they
are with the democratic party In maxi
ing war on the republican ticket. The
success of the republican party this
year will be a victory for the COM
mon people, a vote Of approval Of
what has been done and is being done
in the state and nation to safeguard
individual rights
There is not particle Of doubt
about the result I'm the state, but we
should all try to make the majority
such that it will add strength and in
spiration to republicans everywhere.
Men from other states and our own
men most conspicuous in national life
have come here and urged all repub-
licans be loyal to their party and have
pointed out that our fight is ma
tional one, and the duty rests on us
now to meet the expectations OF our
friends and to fulfill the demands OF
patriotism
Closing Rallies.
Closing rallies will be held by the
republicans on Monday in a number or
places but the speaking campaign, In
its larger features, closes this even
ing. On Monday evening Governor
Cummins will address meeting In
Dubuque; Secretary Wilson will be In
Traer Secretary Shaw will be in Craw-
ford and Carroll counties, Senator Dol
liver will be in Webster county, Audi
tor Carroll will be in Davis county, At
torney General Byers will be in Shelby
county and Governor Larrabee will be
in Fayette county.
During the past week large number
of splendid meetings have been held,
in leading cities Of the state and in the
smaller places. There has been much
success for meetings in Burlington,
Iowa City, Sioux City, Davenport and
Vinton. by Governor Cummins; in Mt.
Pleasant. What Cheer, Des Moines and
Ames for Secretary Wilson; in Winter
set. Oskaloosa, Bedford and Manches-
ter for Secretary Shaw; and in En-
metsburg, Marshalltown, Muscatine
and elsewhere for Senator DolNver.
The big rally in Des Moines addressed
by Governor Deneen and Secretary
Wilson, showed that the republicans
are alert. They advised all republicans
to stand loyalty by their ticket and
called attention to the fact that the
people of other states are watching
the situation here with deep concern.
It has come to the knowledge Of re-
publicans here that in the past few
days the state has been flooded with
circulars, with cartoons
purporting to come from republican
newspapers, with letters and with ca
nards of all kinds, all designed to lead
voters to abandon the republican party.
1t has also been learned that within
few days large amount Of money has
been distributed from Des Moines to
be used against the republican ticket
in various parts of the state.
Within the week the democratic
committee and the whole management
of the anti-republican campaign has
been put upon the defensive because of
the exposure of the close connection Of
