WHY KENYON SHOULD BE
CONTINUED IN THE SENATE

Mason City Times: Senator Ken
yon's visit to Mason City has served
to confirm in the minds Of all who
met and heard him the good opinion
which his work in the senate in the
last year had given the people OF
Cerro Gordo county.
He is strong, forceful, able man,
with the energy and ambition OF
youth showing in his every movement
and expressed in his every sentence.
He is Christian gentleman who has
been brave enough to carry into the
work of the senate the high ideals
which have heretofore controlled his
private life. =.
He is man endowed with the nat
ural talents and equipped with the
legal training to grapple with the
craftsmanship of the grafters Of con-
gress, and defeat them in their every
INOV0. IL uo ~ TeLuIHcu w VIC SoA-
ate he will continue to fight the bat
ties of the people fearlessly, posi-
lively, ably, as he has during the past
year. ...
A man who in one short year Of
service has won for himself the prom
inent position in the United States
senate that W. S. Kenyon has, and
who stands upon the high principles
of progressive republicanism that
Senator Kenyon does should be re-
turned without question to his pres
ent position. Failure to do so would
please only two classes-the corpor-
ate interests, and their representa-
tives in congress. Failure to do so
would rob the citizens of Iowa of
their leading counsel in the trial Of
the general welfare against the well
fare Of special interests. Iowa will
not make this mistake, but In the
primaries Il June will give Kenyon
an Enforcement Of approval And con.

PENSIONS AND
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.

Senator W. S. Kenyon in senate
March 20: have firmly fixed in my
mind the way of taking care of this
soldier question-by practicing a lit
tie economy in the administration Of
the government.
Some years ago congress raised its
salaries. Where was the voice then
for economy? On the very day the
distinguished senator from Ohio was
preaching this doctrine Of economy,
or on the very day his speech was
published in the Recsrd, the senate
voted $1,400,OOO for public buildings.
I am not opposed to public buildings
where it is right and proper that they
should be constructed. / am not in
favor of stopping great works of in
ternal improvements. But it does
seem to me that when we vote away
a million and half dollars with but
little consideration, we are in poor
position to be preaching economy on
this one great question.
One Of these palatial public build
ings was at the beautiful city Of Sum-
dance, in Wyoming, with its 281 ener-
getic people. Ten years ago Sum
dance had 291 people; but in the
progress of events this great city,,
fifty miles from railroad, with pos
tai receipts of about $2,400 a year,
has lost ten of it's great citizenship.
And we find ourselves, when we are
talking economy about the soldier, ap-
propriating $4,000 for public build
ing at Sundance!

We take pleasure in presenting to
our readers Mr.. w.. H. Brereton, who
is a candidate for county treasurer
subject to the primaries June 3rd. He
has lived in Polk county practically
all his life, beginning at the bottom
round. He has struggled up from a
bricklayer and about 20 years ago he
became a contractor and has made a
success of his business. One thing
about Mr.. Brereton is that he makes
no distinction about hiring. He has
and does employ colored men. He
considers a man from his ability and
merit and not color and no doubt will
give our people representation in the
Office if a worthy one applies. He
has never held or asked for any
county Office before. He has always
been an active republican worker and
was elected alderman from 1890 to
1894. If nominated and elected he
promises to conduct the Office upon an
economical basis in good and busi-
nesslike manner. He will endeavor to
loan the county funds out to the bank
giving the best rate of interest. In
short he will give everybody a square
deal. He asks for your vote in June.

George w. Clark, lieutenant-gover-

will come to that office equipped for
immediate and effective work in deal
ing with the large legislative prob
lens, the intricate business questions
of the executive council and for the
careful disposal of all public business
with the clear mind of a publicist of
thorough training. When he is in
augurated it will be said Of him truth
fully that no man for many years has
come to that high office with more
complete preparation for it's work.

knows what is necessary in the mat
ter of assessment of property and the
equalization OF assessments. He un-
derstands the system of accounting
and business in vogue because he has
had a large share in working out the
reforms which have made Iowa state
administration good.
But Gov. Clarke is also a plain man
Of the people. He is a lawyer with
such a practice as has brought him
into contact with the common peo-
pie all his life. He is also a farmer.
He owns a good Iowa farm. He has
shown his faith in Iowa by investing
his every dollar of savings in good
Iowa land.

Mrs. Dodson needs no introduction to
our readers or to the colored voters for
she is so well known. Her past admin

criticism. She has filed it so faithfully
so honestly that her friends feel that
she is entitled to another term. She
has done more than any other official
to put the jury system of Polk county
upon high plane. She has also done
something that no other county official
has yet done-to appoint colored lady
