The city council is composed of
business men-men who know the
value of an advertising medium.
They know that the circulation of
THE GAZETTE is three times larger
than that of our contemporary, and
that on a years work THE GA
ZETTE's bid of $40 higher for the
city printing was by far the cheaper.
If we have something to offer that
is three times better than the other
fellow wouldn't you, as a careful
buyer, pay just a little more to get
the best goods. Every business man
knows this, studies this, and values
this, when he places his advertising.

The Hepburn-Dolliver rate bill
has passed the house. !, 1t is the bill
wanted by the President. The rail-
road lobby is moving heaven and
earth to have it defeated by the
senate, and the only thing that will
prevent its defeat is by a general
uprising on the part of the people
and demand by them to their
senators that they will pass this bill;
without amendment. Senator's Aid
rich, Elkins and Foraker are the
three leaders for the railroads, and
if your senator's vote contrary to
them you can feel that they are
right. Keep an eye on Washington

THE BANKS CONTRIBUTED ALSO.

On the subject of unlawful campaign
contributions, Senator Tlllman called
the attention of the senate on the 9th
to the fact that he has a resolution
pending before the election committee
providing for the investigation of cam
paign contributions by national banks.
He read section 5000 OF the Revised
Statutes relating to embeZZlement and
misrepresentation Of funds by bank Off
Gals and said:
IF 1t can be shown that national
banks in 1896, and probably since then,
have been guilty of disobeying this sec.
tion aud of contributing funds of the
banks 70 campaign committees, it seems
to me there is clear case Of malfea
sance in office, which ought to be inves
tigated and the men guilty of this DISC
bedience of law called to account"
Mr.. Tillman said he had proof he
would present to the senate at the prop.

WHAT CONSTITUTES A REPUBLICAN,

A republican writing to the Chicago
Inter Ocean says: After forty-five
years of active political life l am COM
PEELED to ask What constitutes a re-
publican?' " The Inter Ocean declares
that many republicans are IN the same
state of uncertainty, and says this is
so because so many recognized repub-
lican leaders do not seem positive that
they stand for anything, nor to be I'M
compromisingly for or against any
thing"
In the house recently Champ Clark
consumed considerable time in an effort
to persuade Congressman Larcey of
Iowa to admit that Governor Cummins
is republican. But he failed.
The question submitted by the Inter-
Ocean reader would perhaps be more
readily answered by citing those who
have been read out of the republican
party. Distinguished Iowa republicans
do not regard Governor Cummins as a
republican; Cummins has insisted-upon
the destruction of the shelter which the
trusts find III the tariff. and demands
that the people of Iowa be granted pro.
lection from corporate imposition. La
Follette's fight along anti monopoly
lines is we'll understood, and the repub-
lican national convention of 1904 read
LaFolIette out OF the party and refused
to give his following a seat in that con-
Yention,
The republicanlsm of such men as
LaFollette and Cummins has been re-
Deatedly assailed but no one has had
the temerity to question the reI ubIi-
canism of John d. Rockefeller, Thorn
as Q. Plat, Depew, AldrIch and Elkins.
The men who stand resolutely for
special interests and who never raise
voice against corporate imposition are
true blue republicans"
The men who dare to suggest that
the republican party do something by
Way of calling halt to greedy men, and
protecting the people from the en-
croachments of powerful interests
these men prove themselves faithless to
a political organization which in theory
is 1.-THE party of God and morality" but
IN fact Is the party of peculation and
