sary to Iowa in the person OF Court
Boyd to scout and secure information.
He had known Williams years before
and sought an interview with him. Un-
der pledge of confidential correspond
ence Williams wrote out his views and
gave them to his former friend for
Taft,s information. Boyd had not yet
seen Cummins nor had Williams talked
with the governor on the subject. With
the freedom of free lance Williams
expressed his own ideas to the effect
that the progressive faction in Iowa
represented the real Roosevelt TAFT
principles in politics, that the Allison
crowd were playing politics in their
support Of Taft and that Taft should
know this so as to remember who his
real friends were, should he become
president
1t seems that this Court Boyd was
the kind of a man who would accept
Williams letter in confidence and
straightway exhibit its contents to
Julian Richards and LATE Young, con-
firmed journalistic enemies of the gov
ernor of Iowa. This notable pair Inn
mediately published the lie that Cum
minis had written the letter and pro-
ceeded to distort the contents so as to
make Cummins ridiculous.
Williams is not ashamed of what he
wrote and offers to submit a correct
COPY for publication if the Allison
dailies will agree to publish it in full
without Justification. There is vast
difference between a newspaper cor
respondents personal opinion given In
confidence to the effect that federal
appointments had been partial to the
anti Cummins crowd, as com pared to
an alleged letter from the governor OF
the state complaining about the mat
ter. Every man knows that federal
patronage has been controlled by the
state delegation in congress and that
President Roosevelt has played poll
tics with his appointments and 1t was
not strange that a newspaper man
would express his opinion on the sub
ject, but Governor Cummins has not
considered that this fact should influ-
ance any mans support Of Taft or
Roosevelt principles in politics. The
newspaper man who charges otherwise
is practicing deception upon his read

THE TAFT LETTER FIASCO.

And now the alleged letter from
Cummins to Taft has been explained
BY disclosure of the fact that Cum
minis did not write any letter, did not
know one had been written, and had
never been consulted about what was
written. The man who did write the
letter was Ora Williams, a newspaper
correspondent in Des Moines, who has
never had any connection with the
governors office in any capacity except
that of a friend. Taft sent an ennis

WHERE PUBLICITY FAILS.
(Mopilla Tiyneel

The people are still driving. We are
more nearly democracy today than
ever before An intelligent voting con-
stituency can always control. Musca-
tine intended to show an exception, but
in the light of events the past week,
law and order will prevail and will be
supported. An organization has been
formed at Des Moines to engage in an
anti-current against the sentiment for
vigorous law enforcement turnout the
state. Let us suggest that If those In
terests were wise they would close that
office at once, and send their ex-news-
paper secretary back to Clinton. The
less publicity they get the better. Graft.
