 Fellow Republicans: I do not come before you in any spirit of rivalry or self-seeking.

I ask no favor and I make no claim. desire that the par ty shall act for,its best interest.
 Party Harmony Essential.
 We must not underestimate the la bors of the next campaign. It will be a hard fought battle. We cannot expect victory unless we are united, and nothing should be done to imperil success in this State. l appeal to you in the name of the party to which you are all loyal to forget every personal difference and to make the work which precedes the convention a fit ting preparation for the united effort which later will be essential.
 And let us not forget that the Re- publican party does not exist for it. self Our efforts on it's behalf are justified by our conviction that through the party we may render pa triotic service to the nation. Let this thought dominate our activities and love of country be the inspiration and the motive of every partisan effort.

SUFFERED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
With Eczema-Her Limb Peeled and
Foot Was Raw-Thought Amputa-
ton Was Necessary-Believes
Life Saved by Cuticura.

81 have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for bad case Of
eczema on my leg. They did their best,
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. At
this time my leg was peeled from the
knee, my foot was like piece of raw
flesh, and 1 had to walk on crutches.
1 bought a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
prised and said that he would use
Cuticura for his own patients. Ihave
now been cured over seven years, and
but for the Cuticura Remedies
might have lost my life. Mrs. J. B.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and f1neness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great

OLYMPIC TEAM IS GATHERING
Sheridan, Entered for Discus Throw,
VIII BE Unable to Attend.

NEW YORK, June 24-With the de-
parture of the American team for the
Olympic games in London only a few days
away word of the probable withdrawal OF
another top class man from the aggrega-
ton, in addition to the three who earlier
in the week announced their inability e
make the trip, has been received by the
committee.
Manager Matthew Talp'n has been noti-
fled that Martin J. Sheridan, entered for
the discus throw, would probably decline
to start for London with the team on
Saturday. AS in the case of Dray, the Yale
pole vaulter, Wjtham, the Pennsylvania
sprinter, and Rowe of Michigan, the inter-
collegiate two-mile champion, 1t Is I'M
likely that the committee will make any
attempt to fill Sheridan's place on the
team, should 1t finally turn out that he is
unable to go,
A number OF the men on the second list,
however, will be added to the party, owing
to the financial assistance of friends or
clubs or colleges to which the men belong.
Seven already added are d. D.. Lobbins,
Yale; c. b. Beard, Ames university, Iowa;
w. NJ. Band, Harvard; F. NJ. Deselding,
Harvard; B. E. Sherman, Harvard; Lewis
Tewanina, Carlisle Indian school and H. c.
DeGrote, Missouri Athletic association.
Western athletes are beginning TO arrive
and the entire team is expected to be on
hand Friday night at the New York Ath-
letic club house for the final muster.
Among the arrivals were John w. Garrels,

DIES MONIES, Ia, June 24.-.All five
members of the election board in the third
precinct of the third ward testified under
oath before the board of supervisors today
that the ballots from that precinct as they
were found in the ballot sack by the super
visors were not as they were deposited
therein by the election board when they
finished the count the morning following
the primary. This was the sensational
development of the session today of the
Hull-Prouty vote canvass in the seventh
congressional district of Iowa.
The board continued today to take evi.
dence on various precincts. In the first
precinct of the third ward it is disclosed
that some figures were made on some of
the ballots and the board is seeking to
establish whether these were made by the
judges and clerks of the election or by the
voters. II by the voters the ballots must
be thrown out. The judges testified that
they had made the figures there in count
