paign was enthusiastic. The good
women and children took part Songs
were sung, etc. But there must be
in Ottumwa middle class who are
not ambitious to make the town too
good yet who stand out for the law
and its fair enforcement without
prescription. 1t is evident that such
an element voted for Tom Phillips and
the wide open town, rather than to
go to the other extremes The same
situation was presented at Marshall
town with the same results. The de-
cent ticket at Ottumwa was called
republican. The other ticket was
called democratic. Inc decent ticket
should have been called non-partlsan,
and the head OF it should have been
the best democrat in Ottumwa With
such an arrangement Tom Phillips
would not have been reelected mayor.

a battle for just as much reform as
he thought he could get. This ought

When the dispatches said that Sen

such poor committee assignments were
given Senator Cummins and that he
withdrew from the committee on in
ter-state commerce ON the sole condi
ton that Cummins should have the
place, there were good many doubt
ing Thomases. But the Des Moines
Register and Leader gives this history
of the event:
Senator Dolliyer went to Senator
Aldrich and protested that Senator
Cummins should be given proper con
lsideration. wanted Senator Cum
minis to have as good treatment as
myself had when | came to the senate,
said Senator Dolliyer, and was an
gered that disposition was shown not
to give MIN such treatment Finally
Senator Dolliver wrote to Senator
Aldrich and resigned from the inter
state commerce committee, insisting
that Senator Cummins be put in his
place. Senator Dolliyer said that he
had done as he did because he wanted
Iowa's interests we'll looked after here
and because he felt it would go far to
create better feeling among the re.
publicans of Iowa and remove the
idea that he had at any time had any
personal antagonism 10 Mr.. Cummins.
