GREAT SHORT HORN
CUMBERLAND'S LAST
C. A. SAUNDERS OF MANILA PURCHASES
NOTED BULL AND FIFTY OTHER ANIMALS
BEST SHORT HORNS ON EARTH
Entire Herd Of Burwell Stock Company ef
Milwaukee Transferred to Greedy Stock
Farm Near Manila Of This County.

Charles A. Saunders of Manila has
with his prize winning short horn
herd. by buying the entire fancy
herd of this breed owned by the
Burwell Stock Co., of Milwaukee.
Wis. Two years ago there was q
sensation among stock men when
Mr.. Saunders sold the bull Cumber-
lands Last for $4,000. The price
seemed so long that Mr.. Saunders
sold, but in the time since then, he
has seen what the get of this sire
stood, for in the short horn world.
and he was determined to regain
Cumberland's Last at any price. The
Burwell Stock Co. owned the coveted
animal and to get him Mr.. Saunders
bought out the entire herd, herd
which cost the Burwell people over
S2S. coo. AS an evidence OF what
the progeny of Cumberland is doing
in the prize ring we state that the
first prize yearling heifer at the late
Iowa State fair was sired by him.
She was exhibited by Powell & Son
of Linn Grove. Iowa. and sold to Geo
White of Emerson, Iowa. for So, 600.
Further, the two best short horn
heifers on the circuit of the great
fairs this year had tie blood of
Cumberland Last. for ore was sired
by him. and the other by his son.
Mr.. Saunders believes that in this
animal he has the ''Best Short Horn
bull in the world"
We noted just after the Iowa state
fair the fine line of premiums secur-
ed by the Saunders herd. When it
was taken to the Minnesota state
fair at Hamline it won S4s5 in
premiums having sweeping victories
in its class. On special request of
Gov. Packard the herd was shown
at Marshalltown last week taking
twenty-one prizes. 1t will next go
to the great fair at st. Joseph.
With the addition of the Bur-
we'll herd Mr.. Saunders will have
$50 head of short horns on the 600
acres of land in his control just
south of Manila With these cattle
and Cumberland's Last at the head,
he will come pretty near having the
premier herd of short horns in the
west if not in the country. We
might add that Charley Saunders is
personally one of the finest men in
Iowa, and there would not be one
whit of jealousy among his friends
if he should make a mint of money
out of his short horns. He would
be the same friendly fellow. for he
and his exceptional wife would never
turn their backs on their friends no
matter what prosperity should befal
them.

MAJOR ]. l. LACEY
A Union Soldier Before The Republican Voters
For United States Senator,

Nevada Representative: Major
Lacey. if he shall be e'e tied to the
senate. will be the first veteran of
the civil and probably the only
one-that Iowa will have ever sent
to the senate. He has had long and
distinguished service in congress
and is statesman of splendid equip
ment and experience. His record is
clean. and his interest comprehends
alike matters of political concern and
matters which relate to the public
welfare without inviting political
attention. He is man qualified in
every sense to reflect credit and honor
upon Iowa in the senate; and we be-
lieve that it is the concensus of the
best formed opinion that his prospect
of being placed in the senate is
most eXcs llent one.
The spirit in which his candidacy
is received. on both sides OF the
fractional lines in the state promises a
SOheSSG VI lCSS DillCluCSS IUtlIl HAS
been some other contests in the recent
history of the state: and it is to be
noted that matters had reached pass
in which it was recognized and openly
declared by men and newspapers high
in the counsel of the faction opposed
to Major Lacey and his friends. that
the interest of the party and the
chance for the election of Re-
publican legislature would both be
greatly promoted by the presentation
of strong senatorial candidate. In
this last sense the candidacy of
Major Lacey is admittedly welcome,
even to many who will not support it T;
while his success. if success shall
come. will be accepted as a logical
and worthy expression of public
opinion.

REPUBLICAN NAMED
FOR RECORDER
The REPUBLICAN, CANDIDATE FOR THE
OFFICE OF RECORDER OF DEEDS.
Mr.. PETER J. MARTENS.
A Representative German Citizen CT West Side
And Worthy Of Support.

One of th- excellent candidates for
office on the republican ticket is
the one for county recorder. The
party was fortunate in prevailing on
MIR. Peter j. Martens of West Side
to be the candidate. He has been
a resident of Crawford for since 1881
when he came here from Clinton
county. Mr.. Martens was born in
Holstein, Germany. and came 10 this
country and to Clinton county when
he was a lad of thirteen years. On
arriving i'm Crawford county twenty
seven years ago he went to farming
in West Side township south of the
town. 1t was such men as he who
made West Side township to come to
the front as Que of the richest and
best IN the county. Six years ago
he retired to the town of West Side.
AS showing his standing with his
neighbors it might be noted that he
was one of the trustees of his town
ship for sixteen years and for some
time treasurer of the German mutual
insurance of his locality.
Mr.. Martens is a careful, painstak
ing man and we'll qualified for the
Office for which he is named. He has
the German pains taking exactness
which is one of the fine qualities of
his countrymen. He will 90 into
off hnf 10
the people. and not a graft the salary
to be spent in high living. On the
east side of the country the name of
Peter j. Martens stands for high
character, trustwcrthiness good citi-
zenship. 1t is such men as he, whom
the voters can afford to endorse. He
may not be able to see all the voters
in every part of the county, and sc
we print his picture and inform the
voters as to the man and his WORTH
ness for support. When the returns
come in. in November showing that
he has been endorsed for recorder.
No man will enter office with more
firm purpose. to give every energy
to doing his duty. than Ma Martens.
We have no doubt but that the Ger
man voters who know Mr.. Martens
will help him. We thus appeal to
the American born voters to assist
this most worthy man and set the
seal of approval on his honorable
career. He did not run after the
Office, for the nomination sought him.
Let the electors in November seel
him too, for in electing so strong
leve'-headed German citizen to office
the county honors itself.

A Denison Resident Finds in His Papers Quo
tations Of Words Of President Lincoln.

Mr. W. H. Bowen has brought to
our Office bit CT poetry which he
has found among his papers put away
during the days when Lincoln was

For honesty is his motto sure.

And if they don't give up their evil way.
He will whip them good again.

Bank at Mason City. and one of the
best known business men and polite

pointed fiscal agent fo- the Modern
Woodmen of America by the board of
directors of that organization. Nc
Nider is recognized as one of the best

pointment to this position is just
recognition of his ability He has
served as head banker of the Modern
Woodmen and the officers who have
the affairs of the society in charge
know his services to the order in his
new position will be worth having.
The business of the order has grown
to such proportions that it needed a
man of the kind to look after its
large and growing financial interests.

Nider the membership can rest we'll
assured that the funds will be we'll

After fifteen years acquaintance
with Mr.. McNider we can approve
the kind things said of him by the
Chronicle of Hampton. Starting as
the Office boy in one of the banks
with little capital he has risen to
be one of the great directors of
money affairs in Mason City, and
now his abilities are to be put to use
by the Modern Woodmen. He has
been the treasurer of the Woodmen
for term and the head officers know
what he has done. and want him with
them in investing the funds of the
order safely. We predict there will
be no disappointments with the out
come of the trust reposed in him.
