The Review hopes for the election
of the entire republican county tick
ct, but to be candid. it cares less
for their election than it does for maxi
ing Crawford county thoroughly and
stanchly republican. Let US take a
pride in holding Crawford in line for
Roosevelt. No people have benefit
ed more greatly by republican policies.
no people on earth are enjoying
better times soday. Let US show our
appreciation this year. Let not a
township go back on the President.
By Soon ajority the people of this
county expressed their faith in Roose-
velt and Protection. No mani can
give one good reason why there
should be reversal of judgment
this year. If you voted for Roose-
welt two years ago. you ought to vote
for the Roosevelt ticket this year.
Do not leave the President unsupport-
ed in his good works. He has more
than redeemed his pledges. Keep
the faith yourself. Say by your
vote-Well done good and faithful
servant! Stand by your own good
Judgment of two years ago. You
were right then-the history of the
past two years proves it.
Be right again.
Stand by the man who has stood
by you.
Come out in the open. You are
doing we'll to vote the republican
ticket. you would do still better if
you would tell your nelghbors you
are republican and so let your in
huence and example be of help to
others.

years ago.

For the first time the Bulletin in
Inmates that Louis Evers would not
if elected receive interest on TIE
public funds for his own benefit.
Even now it makes no statement that
Mr.. Evers would have the interest
paid to the people. The Review has
said nothing unkind of Mr.. Evers.
He is good natured, inexperienced
boy; but the Review does claim
that his services are not worth from
$1,000 to $500 more to the county
every year than the services of an ex-
perienced business man like U. G.
Johnson. Mr.. Evers has had ample
time to make a direct and simple
statement that if elected he would
see to it that the people got the in
terest on public deposits. HE HAS
NOT DONE so.
1t is not fair for the Review to
believe that he intends to continue
the old methods by which the people
get nothing for their money? Is it
not fair for the voters to think so?
The reform is needed. 1t means
money in the pockets of every tax
payer. To the republicans and Mr..
johnson will belong the credit of
this reform whether it is brought
abe by Mr.. Evers or Mr.. johnson.

The county election this fall will
hinge largely on the vote of Deni-
son. If the republicans of this city
will remain loyal to their ticket ii
will mean very much for republican
harmony in succeeding years, whether
this years ticket be elected or not.
If Denison republicans court the rep
utation of scratching, the outside
townships will reciprocate at some
other time. When you are thinking
of scratching just remember that il
republication is ever to win per.
manent victory in this county it must
be done by loyalty to each other. Dc
not let US start an undying feud thi.
year. Let US advocate our principles
and stand by the man who advocate
them.

A CALL TO REPUBLICANS.

Iowa should give rousing support
to the republican ticket this year.
This is due to President Roosevelt
and the late republican congress. Con-
gresham Conner should have an err
dorsement from the republicans of
this district which will show that
western Iowa is loyal to the repub-
lican cause. Democratic domination
Of affairs at Washington would mean
set back to the country. and ii
would be foolish to try the experien-
ment when the republicans are doing
SO we'll. Let there be full turnout
on election day and a vote of conf.
dence in President Roosevelt be given.

We learn that John McCrack en-
and E. A. Packard struck a bonanza
in their potato crop, which they rails
ed upon their little farm in the south
part of town, the yield being some
thing like l.4OO bushels from eight
acres. The proceeds from this crop
amounted to over $50 per acre. and
probably netted them in the neigh
borhood of $40, enough to pay for a
farm with one crop. even in these
parts, and vet some people declare
that land has gotten too high in Iowa
to be farmed with profit. Manila

THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY.

THE TENTH ANNIVERSARY.
This is the tenth Anniversary of
Republican prosperity.
Let us celebrate.
Let us jubilate.
1S96-1906.
What have the ten years done for
us?
AS American citizens aren't you
proud Of every one of them?
Is there not cause to celebrate and
jubilate and ruminate?
Let us celebrate the tenth anniver-
sary with our votes. Let us forget
all the fuzzy wuzzy about who's who
in Iowa.
Let us rejoice and shout and give
praise. for the country that was deac
is alive again
Let US jubilate. for we are the
greatest people on earth, and we
know it and are proud of it. We die
notlknow it ten years ago. but we know
it now.
Let US jubilate over the ten fat
years of republicanism that succeeded
the lean years of democracy.
Let us ruminate.
Let us think of ten cent corn anc
80 cent wheat. Let US think of the
panic, the idleness. the want. the
misery of ten years ago. Let US get
down on our knees and thank God
that the American people had sense
enough to elect Mckinley.
And when that prayer is done. let
US give thanks for Roosevelt.
God sent Mckinley to this people.
We needed him; God knew we
needed him.
He put it into our hearts to elect
him.
Mckinley the great Pacifcator.
He started the wheels of industry,
lighted the furnace fires, put cour-
age into broken hearts, lifted the
heads that were bowed with woe.
We needed Mckinley.

THE @CoUNTY,s WATCH DOG.

John Cook is now going about the
country telling that he is the watch
dog of the county treasury. He has
been telling this story ever since he
became member of the board.
According to Mr.. Cook. he is the
only honest man, or to say the very
least. the only competent man among
the supervisors.
These stories Of incompetency on the
part of Schroeder and Molter and
Ahart and Maynard he has repeated
all over the county and he is now
doing so in the interests of his own
reelection.
Just how Schroeder and Molter and
Ahart like this sort of thing we do
not know. Perhaps they are not
aware of the fact that Mr.. Cook is
now asking reelection because they
are incompetent and badly need him
as watch dog to guarl the peoples
interests.
One thing is certain, if Cook ought
to be elected because he is the only
competent man in the bunch the
others ought not to be elected. Mr..
Cook accuses Mr.. Schroeder and the
rest of slip-shod methods. of illegal
acts, of all kinds of incompetency.
1t is we'll known fact that the
board did not get along we'll together.
More than once the lie was passed,
and more than once Henry Schroeder
expressed his contempt for Cook in nc
measured terms.
Many people have heard these bit
ter disputes and wrangles. They are
no secret to any who have attended
the sessions of the board.
4 The Review does not attempt to
decide which is right. All we have
to say is that Mr.. Cooks pretentions
have no foundation or else Schroeder.
Molter and Ahart should be rejected
by the people.
| Either Cook is pompous smart
|aleck or Schroeder, Molter and Ahart
are fools or worse.
| This is not the Reviews "say "
1t is the only logical conclusion to
draw from all that Mr.. Cook has
been saying about his fellow members
for the past years, in fact ever since
he got on the board.
The people cannot logically give a
verdict both for the plaintiff and the
defendant. One or the other must
be wrong. Either Mr.. Cook is not
the watch dog which he claims to be-
either he is not the man who has
kept the board from all sorts of foo
blunders. or else Schroeder. Moltel
and Ahart are incompetent chump.
who do not deserve the vote of thu
people for any Office.
Cooks pretentions. and his stories
about the carelessness. extravaganza,
) and high handed incompetence of the
r rest of the board are either true O.
untrue.
1t is up to the voters to decide.

THE POOR FARM PROPOSITION.

THE POOR FARM PROPOSITION.
This year the supervisors will ask
the people to authorize the sale of
the old poor farm and further to vote
bonds for 500, 200 for the erection of
buildings on new location.
The Review is not opposed to the
proposition. The present method of
caring for our county charges is both
expensive and inhumane.
In connection with the proposition
there are few matters. however,
which the Review would like to pre-
sent.
The board would find the Peep. e
much more ready to vote $4,000 if
they had any assurance that the mat
ter would end there.
Their past experience is against
this belief. The board. with the ex-
ception of Maynard, is the same one
that asked SIS, 1000 to build court
house.
Then they askei for $4,000 adj
ditional.
Further when the bills are all au-
dited it will be found that the total
court house expense is at least $50, 600
more. The new court house cost be-
tween Sl35, 900 and $780, 900 or nearly
twice the original estimate.
At this time the people naturally
wish to know whether the $4,000
asked for poor farm purposes, is to
cover the bill. or whether it is just
a starter as it was in the case of the
court house. If the proposition is de-
feated it will be because the people
have lost confidence in the business
ability of the present supervisors.
This poor farm proposition calls at
tention to the incompetence and high
hardness of the board in another way.
The present board cannot of course
be blamed for the first location of
the poor farm. 1t is but few years
ago. however since these same de-
mocratic members bought ADDITION
AL LAND in the location which they
now condemn as unsanitary and unfit.
They did not ask the people about
the purchase either.
THEY VIOLATED THE LAWS OF
, IOWA KNOWINGLY when they
made the purchase.
The law requires that when. pur-
chase Of more than $4,000 is made the
proposition must go before the PEG.
pie.
TO AVOID THIS the board Dough,
the land in parcels. The trick wa.
SO transparent. so plainly fraudulent
that the board was later obliged t,
get the Legislature to legalize theil
act.
1t was not only fraudulent pur
chase. but a foolish one. The pric,
paid was so high that even now. ii
spite of the increase in land values
4 every where.it is very doubtful if tn.
j county will get its money back.
The board is very willing to ask
the people to help them let go of {
bad bargain, but when the bargain
was made che people were not con.
suited. and the board descended tt
trickery to avoid doing so.
Tie Review thinks the poor farm
proposition should be adopted but il
also thinks the expenditure should be
placed in more competent hands thar
there would be should Molter, Ahart
and Cook be reelected.

The fact that U. G. johnson has
been able to conduct his own business
successfully surely should not make
him less fit to conduct county bust
ness successfully. The treasurer S
office is not a public charity. it is a
business Office that requires the at
tention of a business man.

Ten years-the longest period of

Mckinley did it.

Nothing else changed. Our re-

The great Lodges of ore were there.
The coal stood out in black veins all
over the country fairly begging to be
burned.
The men were just as strong. They
were stronger, because they were
desperate.
But the black pail of democracy

With prosperity, with good times

It was for Roosevelt to grapple
with the problems of prosperity.
1t was for Mckinley to start the
new growth.
The pruning knife was given into
Roosevelt's hands.
How has he performed his task?
Let men and angels sing his praise.
1t was Roosevelt whose iron hand
controlled the coal barons of Penn

manded that corporations be the SER
