give it unqualified support. The
matter of issues within the party
was settled at the primary, and a
list OF candidates is presented to
the voters which every republican
can conscientiously endorse.
We are pleased to present today
cuts of the candidates, in order
that the voters who have not met
them personally may have an op-
portunity to see how they look.
The ticket, from Governor Car
roll down, is a strong one. The
state has never had a more capable,
a more thorough, or more consci-
entious official. His ripe expert
ence in state matters, his close
application to the duties of the
office, his careful investigation of
the state institutions, and his strict
attention to state affairs has made
his administration a notable one.
He has devoted himself to righting
wrong wherever he has found it,
has reduced state expenses and the
tax levy, has piled up a big sur
plus in the state treasury, and has
given the state a business admin
istration such as it had not had
before in many years.
The rest of the state ticket is
jlst as worthy of support as Gov
ernor Carroll. We haven't the
space to mention each candidate,
but we bespeak for them the sup
port of the party.
Nothing that we could say would
add to the popularity of Congress
man Haugen in this county. His
fourteen years of service, his close
attention to the duties of his posi-
tion, his courtesy. his affability,

of work than any candidate the
party has ever presented for the
first term. Her experience in the
Office when her father was recorder,
and her well known accuracy and
good penmanship in the abstract
business make her splendid can
didate for the position.
There is hardly anyone in the
county who does not know Sheriff
T. j. Qualley, and know that he
has made one of the most capable
and competent sheriffs We have
ever had. His record In the Office
will bear the most careful investi-
cation. His attention to the exact
ing details of his office, his manner
of dealing with offenders of the
law, and his good judgment re-
commend him to the people, and
he ought to be reelected by an
increased plurality.
The record of N. Willett, county
attorney, is so well known in this
county, that we can add but little
to strengthen his candidacy. Born
and reared in the county, practic-
ing here successfully for years,
serving term after term as county
attorney, he has both the ability
and the experience which the posi-
tion demands.
Will NJ. Lee, the next county
surveyor, has splendid education
along these lines. and has had
much experience as we'll in this

Des Moines Correspondent Writes
Concerning the SenatOrship.
EQUIPMENT OF RAILROADS
Railroad Commissioner w. l.. Eaton
Says Safety of People is More
Important Than Rates.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. 25:-The
vacancy in the United States Senate
caused by the sudden death of
Senator ]. p. Dolliver will be filled
by the Iowa legislature which con-
venes here in January and Is Sc
lected at the November election.
Gov. Carroll will not appoint a
senator before the convening of the
legislature as such an appointee
would have but about two weeks
to serve before the legislature Sc
lects. There is much speculation
among politicians as to the effect
the senatorial vacancy will have ON
the selection of state legislators.
There are many who believe 1t will
have the effect of making repub-
licans vote strongly together in
order to prevent the possibility OF
Iowa having a democratic senator
Others contend that the effect will
be just the reverse, and are pre-
dieting that the democrats will con-
troll the Iowa state legislature.
Already a number of prominent
republicans of both factions have
been announced as candidates for
the place. H. w. Byers, present
attorney general, will probably be
the chief insurgent candidate, and
Hon. Walter l. Smith of Council
Bluffs the favorite of the regular
republicans. A number of other
possibilities have been suggested
including Elk. Gov. Warren Garst
George D. Perkins, John F. Lacey
etc.
Iowa should turn her attention
from freight rate problems to re-
quiring the railroads TO equip and
operate their trains so that the
travelling public may have safety
said State Railroad Commissioner
w. l.. Eaton of Usage before the
first general meeting Of the Com
mercial Travellers Congress of
Iowa at the Chamberlain. The
railroads and people should have a
better understanding and be fair to
each other. The people want and
ought TO have safety. There should
be more double tracks, better de-
pots, better services and better
