ROOSEVELT IN IOWA.

Cedar Rapids Gazette; Roosevelt makes
US tired.
Crsston American: 1t is generally con-
ceded that Roosevelt makes a fine ex-
president.
Waterloo Tines Tribune: To our mind
this presumptive man Is placing his ego
tlsm against the sober judgment Of the
country.
Dubuque Telegraph Herald: Colonel
Roosevelt will be defeated for the nomi-
nation and his defeat will be due to the
latsness Of his entry into the campaign.
Boone News-Republican: The News
Republican has been a great admirer of
Colonel Roosevelt. 1t Is not prepared to
follow him against the third term prece-
dent. As between President Taft and
Colonel Roosevelt, the News-Republican
much prefers the nomination of Ar. Taft.
Waterloo Reporter: should Mr.. Roose-
welt at this time be disappointed, repudi-
sted by the party, and the result is more
than probable. his star as q political fac
tor will be set. He made a splendid
president while in the White House, but
his record has been well sustained by his
successor.
Nevada Representative: The country
simply win not stand for Taft. while the
popularity OF Roosevelt Is, We believe,
very much exaggerated In the estimates
OF his friends. There are numerous re-
pubIiesns who would. II nominated. be
much more generally acceptable than
either Of the two.
Davenport Times; In other words,
Grant. after serving two terms as presi-
dent and being out four years, could not
secure q third nomination. Whether
Roosevelt can do what Grant failed to
do remains to be seen. But Roosevelt is
not bothered by superstitions concerning
what may or may not be done.
Waterloo Courier: IL we were one Of
Roosevelt's family we should tremble for
the success Of his Unprecedented under
taking. As II is we are more interested
than infiamed. We want the best man
for the republican party and for the ma
ton. Roosevelt has q ehance--perhaps a
better chance Of being both than any
other man.
Burlington Hawkeye: 1t Is a sadden-
ing spectacle. Hero worship Is innate;
but Il grieves the American people to
have one Of their heroes toppled from his
PEDESTAL and especially by his own act.
Mr.. Roosevelt has made one OF the great
mistakes Of his life. His ambition win
not come to fruitage. An he win have to
show for II win be diminished luster

Aarshaiitown mes-Repuhllcan: There
Is chance. more than q chance, an
opportunity, for Iowa and western pro-
gressiyes In the next convention. There
will be no candidate before Il more logi-
cal from every point Of view as 10 party
success at the polls than Senator Cum

Our Great Tinauoier.

How fortunate IL is that at this
crucial moment Nebraska is supply
ing the country with a democratic
United States senator to come 10 the
rescue OF the country with a panacea
for all our financial ills. Flaunted
in big type, Senator Hitehcock's
plan" scouts the central bank idea.
rejects the monetary commissions re-
serve program and proposes, instead,
twenty-five independent national re-
serve cities This great financier has
put all the monetary experts to rout.
SO that now all that is necessary to
ill our pockets with money, and
make panies impossible, is for con-
gress to add its endorsement.
Without going into the merits OF
Senator HitcheoekIs plan, which
would require more than cursory
reading, We may be permitted TO re-
call another finareial panacea pre-
,cribed by the same eminent finan-
cier in the W.As u the other great
panic back in 1898. At that time.
the nov Senator Hitchcock also came
brayely TO the front to tell the law
makers what to do" and here is his
formula:
First-Eepeal the silver purchasing
clause Of the sherman act. for the reason
that its effect has been to put into cir
culation silver currency OF such debased
value az to shake the confidence Of tlmld
investors and to force out OF circulation
much money ordinarily used 10 transact
the business Of the country. thus pro-
duclng stringenoy and alarm.
second-Provide for the free and un.
limited coinage OF silver on such q
standard as will put about 100 cent OF sIl.
yer into each silver dollar. taking the
average value for the last twelve months.
For this plan for the free and un-
limited coinage Of silver, its sponsor
exhibited almost the same enthus-
Iasm that he does now for his new
financial remedy. He said that this
would be practical, safe and honest
bimetallism." adding this elinching
argument:
No people except the greedy owners Of
silver mines, anxious 10 make inordinate
profits, are interested In coinage at the
ratio Of to is
No people. except those avarlclous
owners Of money. who profit By contract.
Ing the currency. are interested In prohib-
itins free silver coinage at the ratio OF
I 70 g.
We have no silver mines In Nebraska
and the interests Of the people OF this
state simply require free and unlimited
coinage Of silver upon the basis OF It's
reasonable value. which cannot be far from
one part Of gold TO twenty-five parts OF
silver.
Needless to say that within a few
months thereafter Senator Hitchcock
and his newspaper had repudiated
this practical, safe and honest BIZ
metallism' and had Joined the
greedy owners Of silver mines" Ia
their denunciation Of the repeal Of
the purchase act. and In their de-
mand for the dishonest ratio Of 1e

CAUSE OF ECZEMA
NOW EXPLAINED
Is there an incurable form of &c.

Is there an incurable form of &c,
zema?
Sore say there is, but the best
skin specialists are now agreed that
the only skin diiase that seems to
resist a cure, is not genuine Eczema,
but an inherited disease, and even
that they believe, will generally
yield to D. D. D. Prescription.
There has been so many eXtrava-
grant claims FOR skin cures that in
telli9ent people have become skep-
teal. They doubt all medicines.
Some deliberately give up" They
think they have tried everying and
now they despair.
We ourselves vii! not absolutely
promise you an absolute cure. But
we do know simple cooling wash
OF WinJer9reen, ThyInoI, etc. ap-
pied to the skin has cured d num-
Der Of people in this town. and as
! it seems, they are permanently
cared. At any rate this soothing,
cooling wash known as D. D. D. Pre-
scription certainly does take the
itch away. That much you can
prove to your own satisfaction, in
five minutes, for all you need to do
is to rub a bit into the skin and
the itch just goes away.
AS. D. D. D. Prescription with its
vegetable ingredients is a great
complexion wash for ladies, and is
also used on babies, it surely can
not harm the tenGerest skin. And
if YOU want to get rid of the itch at
once, you can now try this standard,
thoroughly scientific and long estab-
lished remedy.
