The people of Iowa are progressive
and will not accept past records when
it comes to placing a man in nominal

They have a right to know by whom
candidates are brought out and what
measures they can be relied on to stand
for should be elected. AS to Governor
Cummins' position on all questions in
which the people are interested, there
is no question:, he comes out square

Cummins can always be relied upon
to act in politics as he acts in private
life, on the lines of personal honor.
The Capital has had so much to say n
behalf of Cummins during the past
four years that further eulogy is I'M
necessary. If he shall be chosen to
head the ticket he will be a dauntless
and courageous leader. If chosen
governor he will discharge every duty
with the strictest regard for the pub

lied by intense enthusiasm.

SENATOR elLLILAuD SUCCEEDS.

Senator Gilliland, who appears to
have assumed leadership of the anti
reform forces in the branch of the
Iowa legislature to which he is at
tached, probably passed bad night
succeeding the debate on his resolution
aimed at Governor Cummins. Gilliland,
it will be remembered. butted in much
to the disgust of the shrewder mem
bers of the railroad crowd, with res
olution twisting the governors charge
that railroads were using every effort
to prevent the passage Of the primary
law into charge of bribery against
members of the legislature. Senator
Gilliland was virtuously indignant.
Himself utterly without knowledge OF
any railroad lobby or of railroad lnt1u-

wanted the vile hirelings of grasping
corporations pointed out. He wanted
to know There were those inside and
out of the legislature, however, SUI
ficiently suspicious and hardened to
conclude that Gilliland's purpose was

has not shaken these obdurate and mis-
trustful men. In the course of the de-
bate Senator Smith of Mitchell produc-

tracts from letter publisned
as written by one w. D. Eaton,
representative of the rail-
road interests in Des Moines, to
prominent citizen Of Mills county, in
which the railroad agent outlined

letters be sent Gilliland and Washburn
