IGNORANT AS 20 the PRIMARY.

The amount of ignorance that pre-
walls among intelligent men regard
ing the senatorial primary is appalling
Most men, for instance, think that
they are going to elect a senator when
! two sessions of II legislature has
worked over plan to bring about a
party nomination by popular vote in
primary because the federal const-
tuition provides that senators shall be
elected by the legislatures Of the sew
eral states. The republican who votes
for his choice as between Cummins
and Lacey can settle the controversy
so far as his party nominee is con-
elect a majority of the members Of
the next legislature the candidate
chosen by the voters of the republican
party at the primary will not be
elected senator
1t is strange that republicans should
believe that they can vote their SEN
atorial choice in the primary and then
try to defeat republican candidate
for the legislature without endanger-
ing the chance of their man being
elected United States senator. It Is
equally strange that democrats should
think that they can vote for Porter
in this election. Porter was nom
mated for senator by the voters OF
last June. If the democrats control
the legislature they will elect him
senator. Likewise Allison was NOM
mated by the republicans last June
and would have been the republican
candidate before the next Legislature
had he lived. But he died, 50 we have
aNsecond and special primary to make
another republican nomination.
There will be special ballot con
tanning the names of Cummins and
Lacey. Republicans must ask for Il
and sign request blank or applica-
llOIl 10 BtL II. I1aNiIS SOlGO llGll
preference they must elect republi-
can Legislature or their primary nom
inee will never go to the senate They
can't prevent the party members vot-
ing solidly for the man who carries
the primary. so there Is no use In
making a fractional fight on republican
candidates for the legislature, but they
could, if enough of them kept it up
defeat republican control Of the legis-
lature. Either Cummins or Lacey or
Porter will be the next United States
senator from Iowa. If Lacey carries
the primary then either Lacey or Por-
ter will be senator. If Cummins car
ries the primary, either Cummins or
Porter will be senator. Cali for the
ballot.

1t was cummins who argued for :

1t was Cummins who argued for a
reasonable reciprocity that would
open more markets for our meat pro-
duets abroad, only to be attacked as a
democrat. 1t was Cummins who was
called a democrat because he argued
that the consumer is entitled to pro-
lection by a careful, republican revision
of the tariff. but today the republican
candidate for president is promising
a revision of the tariff "downward' be-
cause he says. consumers are entitled
to consideration in making tariff laws.
This man Cummins has been all attor-
ney for the public in it's struggle with
the special interests. No Standard OIL
fees will ever be found in his pockets.
rather has he chosen to step down
from the highest law practice in Iowa
to comparative poverty as the peoples
lawyer. He is not afraid to raise a
voice in the public's behalf and he
possesses the ability to get things
done.
He ran for the senatorial nomination
in June because. with the aged Sena-
tor Allison disintegrating in both mind
and body, he believed that the field
would be open to others. Those who
would defeat him kept the old man
in the race to juggle with his revered
name and succeeded in their purpose,
but the shroud was rudely drawn from
their deceit by the death of the aged
Allisonl from a disease which must
have put him in q state of coma even
before the voting began in June.
Cummins is opposed now by another
old man. A civil war veteran, who
Is not above playing the old soldier
for his vote. A man who, in public
life, is the very opposite of Cummins;
man who has argued that tariffs and
things in general should not be
changed; man who opposed the hold
ing of elections two years apart in
stead of yearly, simply because 1t was
a change: a man who opposed the
primary election law because for fifty
years we have had the state conven-
ton system, and 1t has worked WELL"
a clean man personally, and able, but
the kind of man who, while never
accepting fees from Standard Oil, lacks
the courage, the disposition and the
temperament to oppose those who do.
Thus we have the governor who began
his career as a lawyer, fighting the
barbed wire trust as attorney for some
farmers, who has overthrown in Iowa
the domination of railroads in politics.
who has given to his state all of the
same reforms of the day, opposed by
the stanapatter from Standpatville, a
man as dead to the cause of progress
and Improvement in government as tho
he, too. We're knocking at deaths
chamber where have entered the aged
Gear and the venerable Allison.
This is the real election issue in

TURN OUT. TURN OUT!

We are upon the eve of a highly inn
portant election Every man who tolls
and. produces, all who have invest
meilts or are in trade are vitality inter
ested in Tuesdays vote and it's ma
jority If there has been apathy dur
ing the campaign there should be none
on election day. Too much is at stake.
The prosperity and we'll being of mill
ions is written upon the ballots that
shall be cast Tuesday. An everwhelm-
ing majority awaits Taft and the pol
icies which have given US the past
decade of exceptional activity and
profit as a nation If it turns out to
vote. Carelessness, neglect and indif-
ference will be a crime against the
future, next Tuesday
Let every republican realize that
every democratic vote that can walk,
ride or be carried to the polling places
will be there Tuesday Tho democ-
racy always votes early and often.
This year it will get up earlier and
vote longer by reason of new hope.
The democratic campaign managers in
Iowa as elsewhere, have assidiously
cultivated the hope that the democracy
may win for the first time in many
years. 1t is a call to the hungry and
vii! be heard and answered.
Iowa republicans gave Roosevelt
1876 plurality. 1t was a peculiar
year, when democrats, disguised with
their party and delighted with Roose-
Welt. voted for the head of the ticket
opposed to their own candidate. In
1900 Mckinley received more than 9S,-
600 plurality in the state. This was
when republican policies had brought
about a turn to prosperous conditions
when men were beginning to shoulder
above the mass of debt that had ac-
cumulatcd thru the industrial and
financial depression that follows a
democratic administration, as a new
born calf follows its mother. There
was little apathy then. Men saw day
light and ran toward it out of the
darkness of a period when corn sold in
Iowa for nine cents a bushel, when
money was practically unobtainable at
banks, and when private funds were
buried in stocking toes. In 1896 Nc
Kinley had a plurality Of 65.552 in
iowa.
1t is question what Taft's plur
atty should be in this state. We have
not gained much in voting population
since McKinley's 1896 vote. The dem
ocrats are united and will deliver their
full vote this wear for tho first time
since that period. Somewhere between
10000 and 100000 is the difference be-
tween the vote Of the Two parties. Per.
haps the 1856 plurality is as nearly as
any the correct balance. We should
have at least 5000 plurality over Bry-
an if the republican vote is polled But
the vote must turn out.
There are about 200 voting pre-
cincts in the state. Divide 5000
votes 10y the number of precincts and
get the number of stay at homes in

II Mr. Bryan is half the friend Of
labor which many young bucks seem
to think him to be, what was he doing
four years in congress with never a
labor bill to his credit?
Mr.. Lacey seems to have a machine
and plenty of campaign funds. while
Cummins will have to depend upon
the men who will volunteer to work
for him q the polls of their voting
precinct.
ANY man who believes in Cummins
and the things the governor has done

Mr. Bryan says he has grown
stronger by defeat, and the American
voters are willing that he should gain
additional strength by the same pro-

a Ballot
Here are shown portions of the
two first columns of the ballot
voters will use next Tuesday.
The First Thing to
Remember
is that the way to vote for a man
is to put cross in the square OPP
pcsite his name like this e and
not to vote for any other man for
the same office.
To Vote For President
vote for everyone Of the. thirteen
electors on his ticket whose names
are found just below the name Of
the man you want for president.
To Vote a Straight
Ticket
put cross in every square down
one column Of names and forget
that there are any other columns
on the ticket.
IF You Must Scratch
a Ticket
take time enough to read the names
Of candidates and mark crosses In
the squares in front Of the names
of those for whom you wish to
vote, being careful not to vote
for more than one man. for the
same office. The names OF op-
posing candidates will always be
found directly opposite and in an
other column.
To Vote For Senator
ask for that separate white ballot
and sign the printed request stating
that you intend to support the re-
publican candidates generally. DO
this before you vote your other
ballots because the law requires
that you hand them all to the judges
at the same time.
