PTOutu's Announcement for


Des Moines, Iowa, March FL, 1908.
To the Republicans of the Sew.
enth Congressional District:
l will not disguise the fact that
from early manhood l have cher
ished an ambition to some day
represent the people at my dis
trlct in congress. I will be equally
frank in saying that at the close
of my last campaign, l laid aside
that ambition Since that time,
l nave been laboring in an hum
BILE way as private citizen to
help change conditions, never
dreaming that l should ever again
stand for any public Office, But
the Primary Law, the Peterson
Act and the Des Moines Plan,
prohibiting the use of money by
candidates and prohibiting cor
porations from engaging in poll.
tics, or contributing of their
funds to political purposes, enact
ed through the efforts of the Pro-
gressive Republicans of the last
General Assembly having so
changed conditions that it maks
it possible, as believe, to con-
duct clean and honorable con-
test for public Office by direct
appeal to the people, l am con-
strained to change my mind and
again stand as a candidate for
Congress in this district. In do
ing SO, l wish to distinctly state
that l shall comply strictly with
the provisions of the law and
shall not use any money in this
campaign, except the small
amount clearly provided for by
its provisions I realize with my
friends that this District, being
overwhelmingly Pro oppressive,
shou d have a representative in
congress rejecting its views
and working for the things for
which the majority stand. [ have
felt that so keenly myself, that
have sought by every means at
my command to induce some one,
clearly representing this force, to
become a candidate, feeling that
another might be able better to
command ITS full strength than
, myself But it having become
apparent that there was no other
person in the district willing to
undertake the task at this time,
have felt it to be my duty to take
up the arduous duties of another
campaign, against which l am
frank to admit, l somewhat
shrink.
My position upon public ques.
tons is so we'll known that it re-
quires no elaboration at this time.

 end his life by cutting his throat with his
 razor. He took the instrument and went to the barn with the statement to his wife that the weather was too bad to work out doors, and that he would do some tinkering at the barn. After he was gone 1t was noticed that he had car
 ried his razor with him, and the family
 at once became suspicious. His sons hur-
 rie dto the barn and arrived just in time
 to prevent his ending his life. He had all
 ready cut his throat several times, and it is feared that he cannot survive the
 wounds and loss of blood MT. Brothers

On that date, from :15 to 2:15 DR..
James Withycombe, director of the
Oregon experimental station of Cor
Wallis. Prof. @. /. Lewis. Prof. 9. E.
Bradley and Prof. 81. D. Scudder. will
address Athena farmers at the o. R.
g. N. depot.
All farmers are cordially invited
and urged to be present, in order that
they may hear the discussions of ex-
perts on live stock. fruit growing, soil
chemistry, crop rotation, conservation
of moisture, aud general cultural
methods.
The 0. r. g. N. Co. is operating a
special train in conjunction with the
Oregon Agricultural college.
The object is to further the improve
ment of agricultural conditions in the
state, through series of lectures given
by the college faculty on subjects of
special interest to farmers.
The following letter has been re-
ceived by the Press from General
Freight Agent r B. Miller which
further explains the enterprise:
The o. r. 6 N. special farming
train will cover our lines in Sherman,
Gillian, Morrow and Umatilla ooun-
ties on May IL, IL, 13 and IA on a
schedule permitting stops at per at
tached. Lectures will be given on the

by the following members of the Ore
gen Agricultural college faculty:
DR.. James Withycombe, director ex-
pertinent station.

/ The principal subjects to be discussed

ods.
The talks to be given by the college
people will be very instructive and
am sure that much good will result t.
the farmers, and consequently to th
country in general.
The lectures are free for all but 1t
the farmers whom we desire paIticu
larly to reach and if they are able t
derive any benefit therefrom we wi
feel repaid for onr outlay.
The train is the first of its kind tina

lecture trains, recently inaugurate
