THE FOURTH DISTRICT coN7Esr.

THE FOURTH DISTRICT CONTEST
The democratic nominee for con
gress in the Fourth Iowa district is
Mr.. d. D. Murphy of Waukon, who
is accounted the leader of the bar in
his vicinage and one of the first law
yers in the state. In point of ability
there is probably no man in he
Fourth district who outranks him.
Mr.. Murphy enjoys the cordial sup.
port of all democrats in the district.
Nor is there any reason why he
should not hace the vote of every
democrat. His position on public
questions as indicated in his state
ment to the voters and in his an
swers to "The Commoners" questions
is such as to commend his candidacy
to every fair-thinking man, regardless
of party.
The 1896 campaign has passed into
history. 1t was fought fourteen years
ago and the face of things has chang.
ed in that time. Mr.. Bryan fought
side by side two years ago. and four
years ago, with men that in 1896
were opposed to him. We are head
ed with our faces to the rising sun
and should give no heed to the shad-
ows of the past. Democratic disun-
ion gave the republicans opportunity
to ride into power and to create the
abuses against which the nation is
in protest today. Republican disunion
now presents to democrats opportuni-
ty to gain power and to write into
the statute books the reforms they
have been advocating for years in
Vulnerable.
This is the year for democrats to
stand together this year above all
others. The next House will be
democratic. Iowa should have at least
half dozen democrats in the next
House. 1t can have one from the
Fourth district if democrats will
stand by the party nominee and go to
the polls on election day.-Telegraph
