The tariff commission may be able

the report Of the commission will in
fluence the country one way or the

about the tariff. Here in the west

but we are very liberal in dealing
with schedules upon the products
manufactured in the east. If any
equitable solution of the tariff prob

SENATOR KENYON.

Denison Review: We do not think
that any other public man who has
visited this county ever made such
q universally good Impression as did
Senator w. S. Kenyon on the day Of
the old settlers picnic. Other men,
have created more partisan enthus-
iasm, but none have been better Tx
ed for themselves. Comment which
We have heard from stalwart repub-
licans, from insurgents and from
democrats bears out this statement.
The people seem to realize that the
future Of the country lies not with
the hard shell reactionary or with
the offensive radicalism Of Cummins
and LaFollette Still further. the
democrats Of this section seem to re-
alize the ineffectiveness Of their own
party leaders. IT is remarkable
extraordinary, how Kenyon seems to
I'LL the bill.
Some of the strongest representa-.
tive democrats OF the county have
told us that Kenyon met their ideals
and that they would support him.
party or no party.
Some Of the most rock-ribbed
standpatters of the county have told
us that Kenyon was their kind OF
republican--progressiye but not IN.
surgent.
Some of the insurgents have told
us that they recognized in Kenyon q
safe and sane" progressive who
could put their ideas into forcs
where the more radical leaders
would fail.
Senator Kenyon is product Of a
new school of statesmanship. He Is
progressive without being revolu-
tionary. He appeals to all parties
and factions because 1t is apparent
that be is approaching public ques-
lions without regard to party or to
factionalism. Republicans like him
because he has not taken part in thu
vindictive and personal warfare up
on the president He has the con-
fidence Of the people Of this country
and II he stands as we'll throughout
Iowa as he does here there lie abso-
lutely no rhyme OF reason In q cam
d'dacy against him.
Personally Senator Kenyon Is
charming and delightful man. He
impresses as an example Of clean
living and clean thinking.
Both at Denison and at Charter
Oak he captured his audiences, and
If an election could be held tomor-
row we believe he would come near
er to receiving unanimous vote in
Crawford county than any other
man who ever ran for an office since
the days Of Andy Molony.
Senator Kenyon has certainly
started right and we have faith thai:
he will keep in the right. We know
that he will do what he thinks Is
right, let the chips fall where they
may.
