am not unmindflil of the fact that the
office OF railroad commissioners is one
of the most important the people have
to fill, and, in selecting these offacials
the people should not forget that they

an honest conviction that no class be

Il believe that just rates and priv

These words have the right ring
to them and they should go far
toward strengthening Mr. Wilson in
the confidence of the people OF the

pie as whole. This is the kind OF
a man wanted as q member OF the

the suffrages of Iowa Republicans.

made speech In the house the other
day, which he began by saying: AT

may add that I am proud of my
vocation. " He got good round OF
applause after that remark, and he
added that he considered farming an
honorable and noble calling, and eX-
pressed regret that farmers do not
realize the dignity and Importance OF
their business. Then he went on to
talk about number of topics which
proved quite interesting to the house
The First district of Iowa, as we'll as

Mr.. Brookhart and he ought to give a
candid reply:
IL you had been in congress last
spring when the extra session con
vened, would you have voted for Jo-
seph G. Cannon, the Republican eau
Gus nominee, for speaker
If Mr.. Brookhart replies he would
have voted for Cannon for speaker be-
cause he was the caucus nominee,
then ask him why he criticises Mr..
Kennedy for voting for Cannon. And
IL Mr.. Brookhart would have voted
for the caucus nominee, then why
would he not have voted for the eau
Gus tariff bill?
Upon the other hand, IL Mr.. Brook
hart replies he would not have voted
for Cannon, the caucus nominee for
speaker, what assurance have the Re-
publican voters of the First Iowa dis
trict that If elected to congress he will
vote for the caucus nominee for speak
er OF the next house? If an insurgent
in the one case, he might be an in
surgent in the next. and that would
not maintain party organization.
These questions are fair and de-
serve straightforward replies. The
Republicans of the district are entitled
TO know the attitude of candidates
upon public questions, and their fealty
to the party to which they appeal for
support,
If Mr.. Brookhart believes in party
nominations and party allegiance,
then how can be criticise Mr.. Ken
nedy for voting for the caucus nomi-
nee for speaker and the caucus tariff
bill?
If, on the other hand, Mr.. Brook
hart is an insurgent, and believes in
insurgency as he processes, and be-
lieves 1t right to accept party nominal
ton and then bolt the party, how can
he censure Republican voters for hest
tating to vote for him?

Governor Carroll and County Officers.

Governor Carroll and County Officers.
Keosauaua Republican, There are
hundreds sof county officials in Iowa
who are serving their first term, and
have served with efficiency. who are
asking nomination for another term at
the coming primary. They are ex-
pecting it too without opposition, as
any faithful officer of clean character
has a right to expect And for all
these hundreds Of candidates there is
a very general and perhaps unani
nous acquiescence on the part of the
Republicans of their respective coun-
ties, in rendering them second nomi
nation. In fact the Republicans OF
TIE county of any of these candidates
would be considered very unjust in
opposing denomination.
And If this is justly applicable to
county officials It is justly applicable
to the denomination of Governor Car
roll, who is serving his first term,
and who has done so with as much eff
ficiency as any Of his predecessors
MS cHdIdCleI IS ABOVE CepTOac1, and
in every way his administration has
been creditable to his native state. In
truth there is not an Iowa county of
fetal serving his first term who can
be consistent, just or fair in asking
for himself a second nomination and
at the same time oppose renominating
Governor Carroll If there are excep-
tons, it is not putting it too strong
to class them as apparently short of a
quality that ought to be required in
those who aspire to a public office.
But 1t is only charitable to say. that
perhaps very rare will be the county
officer candidate for second term,
or the man who some time in the FIJI.
ture expects to be candidate, who
will go into tie booth the 18th of June
and be SO inconsiderate to all that
Is fair and just, as to vote against
a second term for Governor Carroll
Nor can We believe any considerable
number of Republicans will do it. We
have an abiding faith that the great
body OF the Republicans of Iowa will
stand for square deal
