On Tuesday next the voters o1
Howard County will have the oppor
tunity of again registering thcil
opinion of men and measures at the
ballot box. The success of the Repub
lican party means more than victory
for Carroll and his associates, it means
an endorsement of standpatism and
Joe Cannon, an endorsement of the
Taft administration and it's Ballingers,
an endorsement of the Payne-Aldrich
tariff law and it's robbery of the
people. If the Republicans win in
Iowa and elsewhere this year, Taft
and Joe Cannon and every tariff baron
will claim it to be vindication Of
themselves and their methods, and
Taft's Tariff Commission" body
without power to compel single wit
ness, will draw their salaries and kill
time indefinitely, while the people con-
tinue to stagger under the burden of
the Payne-Aldrich tariff exactlons.
Don't be deluded by the false cry that
the Republicans will give you relief if
they are once more returned to power.
No corrupt party reforms while in
power, and if you are Republican
and wish to purify your party, admin
ister rebuke to it by voting the Dem
ocratic ticket this year.
For Governor, Claude R. Porter is
making winning fight. He has the
confidence Of the people of the state
who know that he has the ability to
fill the Office, and that with him in the
governors chair, no scandals or libel
suits will be connected Herewith, and
the affairs of the state will be placed
above the plane of party factionalism
or personal enmity. Vote for Porter
and you vote for clean young man
whose heart is with the people and
whose legislative record has won for
him the endorsement OF organized
labor in the state.
The balance of the state ticket is
also deserving of support, especially
A. J. Anders, the only candidate from
northeastern Iowa; C. E. Walters for
attorney general; and Jones and
Dewey for railroad commissioners. A
vote for either of the two latter means
vote against Dave Palmer, standpat-
ter and railroad candidate.

OF the nervous system which controls the

control this process Is evident from the
fact that acute emotions such a. grief or

that Nh injury 10 the brain or nerve
