VICTORY FOR THE VOLUNTEERS.

The selection of Governor Cummins
as republican choice for United States
senator by three out OF five republican
votes cast and by as many as three
out of four republican votes in some
counties, comes as a glorious vindica-s
ton to many thousands of staunch
friends who have waged an unceasing
political struggle in this state for near
ly eight long years. 1t comes as be-
lated reward to man who has worn
himself gray in giving to the people
achievement while submitting himself
to a campaign OF opposition which
would have driven weaker men to their
graves. Poor in purse and dependent
upon the contributions of loyal friends
to wage the last few primary contests
when he once enjoyed princely in
come in private business, this man
stands as a hero as well as a leader
in tie ewes of his friends and it was
with the fullest sense Of appreciation
that his first words last night were
those of gratitude to the men who had
done the work for him this time. 1t
was battle of volunteers in every
county, who left their shops to organ
ize for Cummins and the result was
achieved by reason of theNirresisttble
public sentiment that Cummins was
the ablest man in the republican party
for the high office of senator and that
above all others he was entitled to the
nomination.
Major Lacey need not feel crushed.
He made the best fight that he could,
but he could not defeat the inevitable.
It was generally recognized by the
strong men of the party that no man
in Iowa could defeat Cummins this
time and hence there was a willing,
scattering Of all other availables to
make plenty Of room for Mr.. Lacey
when he expressed a Willingness to
make the race. The outcome was just
what most men expected, only great
deal more Of 1t.
Cummins will be elected to the SEN
ate in about two weeks to fill the I'M
exp. red term of Allison. This will be
done by the old legislature meeting in
an adjourned session of this summers
extra session. Then in January next.

The PLEDGE OF VICTORY.

Early returns justify the confidence
OF republicans. Indications are that
the national ticket has been complete
~ victorious and the politics Of re-
publicanism decisively approved by the
people. AS to congressional contests all
returns point to a republican majority
in congress and n continuance of the
administration that has given US our
lines of business, production and labor
1t was a good hearing last night.
these early reports prognostic of re-
publican success. 1t indicates the
thoughtful character of the American
voter, his unwillingness to be carried
away by sophism or be content with
the promise of those who have failed
In performance. 1t means that he is
content to give four years more power
to a party which has accomplished
much, tho much has been left undone.
That, as indicated, we have won
again incurs a plain obligation to the
future that must not be neglected or
minimized. The republican, party which
has won against the democrats this
time is the party of reform. 1t is the
Roosevelt party. It's peculiar strength
and its new vitality are drawn from
the things accomplished Within the
past few years and under the leader
ship Of strong man. The rate law,
the prosecutions of trusts and the pre-
vention Of unjust combinations have
fought for the party this year as the
stars fight.
The good work must go on. That is
the first pledge Of the party to the
people 1t is part Of the considerable
given for continued authority. We must
cease,-some of us-to sheer at the La
Follettes and Cumminses and to pursue
with rancor men in our own party who
stand at home for the things Taft and
Roosevelt stand for nationally. In vic
tory or defeat we must do this thing.
We can not endure in power II we do
not: we can not attain to power if we
do not
Win or lose-and it is win-the party
must get close to the people and stay
there. The day of blind partisanship
has gone forever by. Men think, read.
inform themselves in this day of grace
and widespread education and pub
licity. The common man is coming to
his own because he has evolved new
definition of Common" He has at
tanned poise, conviction, knowledge and
higher ideals of government He is
coming to know his friends and his
enemies; and with the knowledge has
come the determination to honor the
one and punish or forget the other. The
party that listens to the people will
survive.
Let us have harmony: harmony
lttuned to the march of progress and
in step with the strides of the century.
Let us get together on the plainest and
most eternal principal of all platforms
the greatest good to the greatest
number, the will of the majority I'M
influenced by greed unbought, unde-
ceived, as expressed by the common
voter, the average man.

sketch OF Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, de-
scribes the schism In the Christian ST.

strongest students became dissatisfied
with the more extreme teachings of
Mrs. Eddy and commenced the lnvesti-
cation of mental healing from another
side, which, while affirming the power
Of mind, did not deny the existence Of
disease, much less Of matter. These
dissenting students formed the nucleus
