Lincoln ran and has voted the repub-
lican ticket ever since 1t is believed
that he is the most regular republican
in the state OF Iowa SO far as his votes
go with the exception of a few who

ing his vote he travelled from Illinois to
Iowa and arrived at the polls two mill
utes late He informed the Judges OF
his predicament and told them he
could not afford to fail to vote for Cen
eral Grant for president and argued
that they should open the poll books
again and allow him % vote. They did
so and he voted for Grant. He has
voted for every republican presidential
candidate sir.ce Lincoln.
Rev. Mr.. Fink believes that Secre-
tary Taft Is one of the greatest can
didates the party has ever nominated.
He heard his address at the Auditor

the American people will elect him

PARSONS FOR CONGRESS.

In its proper place in this paper ap-
pears the formal announcement OF
George Parsons, mayor of Cairo, as a
candidate for congress from this dis
trict. subject to the decision of the
voters at the primary election on
Aug 8. 1t Is not open to question that
Mr.. Parsons will make splendid
race and will give his opponents a
contest for the honor such as they
have no dreamed OF. This con
clusion is based not only upon the
fact that he is one of the most ener-
getic men in the district but also upon
his demonstrated capacity for doing
things and gaining what he goes after
and the favor he has therefore found
in the eyes of the people. These
quantities have been strikingly EVIL
dent in his career as mayor of Cairo.
in which office he is now serving hi3
second term His administration sur
passes that of any predecessor in the
matter of accomplishments for the
material upbuilding of the city and II
good service in a minor office gives
one a claim to promotion in the public
service the people Of Cairo will do
only their duty to give their mayor
a hearty boost toward that wider field
Of usefulness in which he seeks 20
serve them.
The Republicans of this congress
sional district can safely accept the
Judgment of the people of Cairo. twice
expressed, as a guarantee that Mr.
Parsons is entirely worthy of their
support as candidate for congress
and that he will fully meet any eX-
pectations they may entertain regard
ing him in this direction.
