GOVERNOR CARROLL
AFTER DAVE BRANT
Charging Him Not Only With Mis-
representation But Actual
Falsifaction OF The Facts.

For many months Dave Brant. editor
of the Iowa City Republican has been
making charges against, Gov. Carroll,
the board of Control, the board of
parole and Warden Saunders of the
pententiary at Fort Madison concerning
its management. After failing to pro-
duce any evidence to substantiate his
charges Gov. Carroll goes after Brant
with sharp stick as follows:
The time has come when nothing
but plain language SHOULD be INDUCED
in. The article referred to contains
scarcely word of truth. 1t is full of
falsehoods from beginning to end. But
before giving consideration to those
matters think it well that the pub
lie should know the animus back of
the Brant editorials. In order to put
himself in favorable light before the
people and to make it appear that he
is not disgruntled because clemency
asked for by him on behalf of the
prisoners had not been granted, he
stated in one of his early articles that
he never had with one exception ask
ed, for anybody and that that request
was made to and granted by Gov
Shaw. The statement is absolutely
false as can be shown by letters on
file in this office. Sometime ago he
asked to shorten the committed SEN
tence of Frank Novak. l declined
TO do so and since that time he has
sought every opportunity to misrepre
sent both this department and the
board of parole, and no one not even
the worst criminal and no matter
what has been the character of his
crime or his past history, seems able
to write an article so unreasonable or
so devoid of truth that Brant will not
publish it with commendation."
The governor also exposes other
falsehoods that Brant has printed.
1t now seems to be up to Brant to
put up or shut up" In many respects
the governors letter is an eye-opener
in regard to Brant's methods. As mat.
tiers now stand the Iowa City Repub-
lican is discredited before the state.
The governor closes his letter as fol-
lows:
AS previously stated the editor of
the Republican has allowed himself to
be used as medium through which
struggled articles may be given pub
licity and it is even charged that
some OF them were not only clandes-
! timely taken out of the prison but
that names signed to them are forged.
AT least one complaint of this kind
has come to this office from a prisoner
who says that his name has been
so used. Brant has tried to discredit
the board of parole, the board of con.
troll, the governor, the warden, the
prison physician and the president
and secretary of the state board of
health who were by me sent to in
spect the prison as to its sanitary
condition, all in order that he may
give credence to the charges that he
has been publishing"

President Taft Growing Stronger.

The Sac City Sun, a leading progress
sive paper of Northwest Iowa says it
believes that President Taft is stronger
now than before the special session of
congress. Events have taken a turn
that will make his position still more
satisfactory to his friends. Congress,
in both branches, has indicated desire
for tariff revision immediately desire
that is not genuine so far as the Demo
Gratis are concerned. They did not want
to pass bills that President Taft would
sign. They doubtless would have pre-
ferred to have the Republicans of the
senate unite and defeat the bills, if it
had not better served their purpose to
stir up trouble between the two wings
of the Republican party When Presi-
dent sTaft submits the report of the
tariff board on wool next December and
asks for tariff revision on scientific
lines it should be practicable for the
Republicans to get together under his
leadership and vote to reduce the
duties of Schedule X and perhaps some
other schedules and thus set the party
and its leaders right on the question
that cannot be avoided in the next
campaign. The American people favor
protective tariff policy, but are OPP
posed to exorbitant duties They do
not favor tariff such as the Demo
cratic party advocates. If Republican
leaders will forget the dissension of
the extra session and get together in
December they can do much for the
good of their party and ultimately the
good of the people. President Taft,
far from being discredited, is now in a
strong strategic position for leadership.

for the season for the fifteen acres is
considered quite conservative.

Rain In Stanley County.

From the general and heavy rains,
which fell in this section of the country,
Tuesday and Wednesday, it is very
evident that the weather man has not
forgotten us. From what we can learn,
the rain was general over Stanley
County, varying from one to three
inches. About two and one half inches
fell at Hayes Most all the dams and
water holes are filled and every one is
in happy and optimistic frame OF
mind; for it is the best rain that has
visited this section in two years, and
the indications are that we will get
more. The general impression is that
the drouth is now effectively broken,
and we will get our share of moisture
hereafter. Hicks says we will get an
abundance of rain next year.-Stanley
