SMITH OPENS CAMPAIGN
Iowa standpat Congressman Warns
the Farmers That Their Pros
perity is Menaced.

J Orient, Ia, Sept. 21.-Representa-
tive Walter 1. Smith of the ninth
Iowa district opened his campaign
here at a fair and festival yesterday
afternoon. Owing to the discussion
concerning Smiths name with pos
sible speakership of the house and
because of his recent appearance up
on the public platform with Col.
Roosevelt much interest was mani
tested In what the standpat congress
man would have to say.
He declared that the republican
party always had been the progressive
party and always would be progress
sive, and that the prosperity -sof the
past was due to the wise administra-
tion Of laws by the party.
He said that if present conditions
were changed and If those policies
which had brought prosperity were
abandoned, conditions Of 1896 would
be restored and that Is cent corn
would be harder to bear with $3.50
land and automobiles than it was with
$50 land and the old bllggies.

be dangerous to the welfare OF the

Brighton. Sept. 21.-John Adams
died at the home Of his mother, Mrs.
Hullabarger He took sick about six
weeks ago with something that
seemed to be spinal trouble, as he
suffered with severe pains in his
head and became unconscious. At the
time It was thought overwork and be-
coming overheated was the cause Of
it. He got better and was able to be
out and around, but about two weeks
later he had second attack. He
again got better and ten days ago he
had the third attack, which was much
more severe than the other two. as he
became paralyzed. His case has puz-
zled the doctors greatly and UP to this
time they have not been able to de
eide what the trouble was. A post
mortem examination will be held to
try to help decide the cause Of his
death.

committee Hard Worked.

"A harder worked and more 1reQ

dnd than the workers who have at the
neglect OF their own business gone out
On the highways to raise the money

The task they have taken upon them
selves, and the fact that it has been
night and day Job, makes 1t seem, to
say the least, unfair when q more
generous spirit is not manifested by
those on whom they call. These men
stAre beginning to wear out and their
Enthusiasm is given a chill by many

who have been working hard should be
given some consideration inasmuch as
they have no pecuniary gain to re-

and hearty response given the, ef-

than this 1t sis q fact that the company
will come to Ottumwa on the condi-

made tonight at the meeting by Mr..
Hunt, the following signed statement
was received this morning from him:
Ottumwa, Commercial association,
City.
Gentlemen: After going over the
factory of the Moline Pump Co., l
consider the machinery that they
manufacture, and the tools they have
for doing same, have not been over
estimated in values. l put in the en-
tire day yesterday examining the
pumps and gasoline engines that they
manufacture, and could see no reason
why the whole proposition is not a
good one for our city.
Yours truly.

in LaFollette's Magazine, Senator LaFol-
lette says:
'sThe selection of Money of Mississippi,
as senate minority leader is less important
than the leadership of both house and
senate by Money of Wall Street Money
Of Mississippi, is fine old southern gen.
tlenan in any sense. Money of Missis-
sippi is the soul of honor, whose word is
as good as his bond. Money of Wall
Street is destitute guilty of most of its
corruption, local, state and national Money
of Mississippi will voluntarily retire from
public service one of these days, and will
be missed by all who know him. Money
of Wall Street never dies, never resigns,
and must be hurled from his place of pow
er in our politics by the force of the ballot
of an aroused people. Here's health and
long life to leader Money of Mississippi.
And here's confusion and humiliation to
the political reign of Money of Wall
Street,"
