OBITUARY..
William, A. Brown.

william A. Brown, highly respected
farmer Of Wapello county died Monday
morning at II o'clock at hts home
southeast Of Eddyville. MI. Brown had
been patient sufferer for some time
and his death was not unexpected. His
family with the exception Of one son
was at his bedside when death came.
He leaves to mourn their loss besides
his wife, five children. Mrs. Frank
Tempelton of Eddyville. Mrs. Earl
McElroy Of Eddyville. Mrs. Sherm
Heinman OF Eureka Springs, Ark,
Bert Brown Of Eddyville and William
Brown OF Colorado. He Is also survived
by four sisters, Mrs. Ellen Beggs OF
Queen City, Mo-, Mrs. Willis Moss Of
Ottumwa, Mrs. A. J. L.Annis of Sioux
Fails, s. D., and Mrs. Arnold Johnson
OF Eddyville.
Mr.. Brown was born June II, 1s4s on
a farm southeast Of Eddyville and has
spent the greater part Of his life In
Wapello county. He was married In OF
tumwa June II, 1873 to Marietta Chap
man and with his bride moved to
farm near Eddyville where the family

The death OF Mr.. Brown comes ~
personal sorrow to all who knew him.
He was a true friend. Kind and low
ing neighbor. an example OF worthfness
as father and husband, a man who will
be missed In every walk In life. The
sympathy Of the entire community Is
extended to the family In their bereAve-

INCREASES THE MORTGAGE.

A decrease in prices and wages
practically increases the mortgage.
Wages, the price Of farm products,
the price Of your home, the price OF
horses, cattle and hogs, may 60 down,
but the size Of your mortgage does not
decrease with them.
In a personally signed statement,
printed during the past week In al.
most every magazine in the country
Prof. Wilson practically declares him
self in favor of free trade, and says,
~In every speech make, put at the
front of what have to say the ques.
ton of the tariff" He says be Is In
favor of fundamental changes.
That means that if he is elected that
he will put his theories in force upon
US. That means that he will put the
industries and workmen Of this coun-
try in competition with cheap foreign
labor It means that the farmer OF
this country will have to seek for the
sale of the bulk of his product, for
eign market where he will come In
competition with produce Of all coun.
tries. He will have to take what he
can get-not what he wants. That's
what the election Of Wilson means.
The men who wants these conditions
can get them by voting against Taft.
It is up to the voters.

must be an inhabitant Of the state from
which he Is elected.
It Is not enough that he be citi-
zen of the United States-he must be
an inhabitant of the state in which he
is elected.
That means his habitation must be
in that state. A man might be an in
habitant Of a state and still not be a
citizen of the United States. No one
will claim that that man could, under
the constitution, be elected repre-
sentative in congress. If that part OF
section 2, Art. 1, Of the constitution is
binding, then the part Of the same
section, which says he must be an In
habitant of the state in which he is
elected, must be just as binding.
We know the democrats of the sixth
district Of Iowa do not want to elect
to congress a man who will ignore the
constitution Of this country. That Is
not the kind of representation they
want, and Mr.. Kirkpatrick knows It.
He should not try to force himself
upon them.

TO The YOUNG MAN

Young man-you, who have your
own way to make in this world-you,
who have to get ahead by your own
effort-you, who are now voter-you
will have the opportunity next Tues
day of identifying yourself with one
of the two greatest organizations in
this country. These organizations are
the republican party and the demo-
cratic party.
You should study closely which one
of these parties you think has done
and will do the most good for you
and your country, and which by being
member Of you can do the most good
for all.
The object of the republican party
is to keep in force the policies that
have for the past sixteen years made
the advancement of the United States
the marvel of the world. In that time
the country, under republican ad-
ministration, has made cities and
towns and states; it has opened new
territory to homeseekers; it has by
irrigation, made barren lands fertile
and productive; it has built railroads,
both electric and steam; it has built
factories and warehouses and school
houses and churches, and the greatest
home market in the world In that
time the investments of capital have
been beyond human comprehension.
This investment has given employ
ment to you and me and millions of
others These investments have been
made because progressive and in
dustrious men had confidence In the
governmental policies of the republi-
can party 1t is the party Of builders
the party of construction.
Young man, join the republican
party! 1t wants you with it! 1t wants
you to be builder! 1t wants you to
be part Of its organization-it wants
you to go ahead and to be up at the
head. 1t is the party that gives the
young man the opportunity. Many Of
its greatest members we're poor boys.

ly enters upon a democratic revision
of the tariff, which has always been
accompanied by business depression.
II not panic.
Then and In that case what will the
progressive republicans OF Iowa get
out Of this mix-up? VIII the defeat
OF Taft, II the bull moose movement
accomplishes It. make up for the loss
of progressive leadership and the un-
settling of business, with its attend
ant loss Of trade and profits? Will It?
There is only one safe road for the
Of Iowa to take, and that
is to vote the straight republican
ticket, from president to township
trustee. It Is better to be safe than
sorry.

everybody with an income Of $500 a

incomes above $500 year and mar

Through such inclusiveness the Wis

IRIS YOUR DUTY 70 VOTE.

Young men. and middle aged men and
Older men, It Is your duty to vote. 1t
II ls your duty as citizen-as q member
Of this government. Every man in
this republic should vote at every cleo
ton that he can legally, Any man who
can vote and does not do so is allowing
some one che to vote for him. II
only one-half OF the voters in q COM
munity vote, then that half govern the
whole community. To vote is to
exercise the rights Of citizenship.
It is great blessing to be citi-
Zen Of this country, but do not forget,
that to be useful citizen carries with
! It responsibilities. That Is one fea-
(ture that is q benefit to every man in
diyiduallH and collectively No man is
worth kicking out OF the door unless
gha carries some responsibility. He
will develop as he realizes and in
creases that responsibility.
There are responsibilities of citizen
ship and responsibilities of business.
They are directly connected. They are
simply links In the same chain. The
success or failure of business in this
country. Is to great degree, governed
by the policy Of the political party in
power. Some men feel that their bust
ness Will fare better under the policy
Of one party and some under another.
That is the privilege. of every man.
He has the right to his opinion and
the right to express it. He has the
privilege Of going to the polls and
voting for the candidates Of the party
that he thinks has the best policy for
him and his neighbor And 1t Is his
duty to do 50. The man who does not
do this is neglecting his duty to him
SELF. his family and his community.
The best government can only be
obtained by a full expression of the
people.
Every man who can legally do so,
should vote next Tuesday. Go to the
polls and vote as early as you can.
Young man, don't wait till some
older man asks you If you have voted.
Be a man on your own hook. Go
right in, ask for your ballot-there is
one there for you-get 1t, take it in the
booth and vote it for the men you
think ought to be elected. This is
your country If you'll show interest
enough in It to help run it. You can't
do 1t all and no one expects you to.
But you are expected to attend to your
share OF it, and If you don't do it, some
other man may do It In just the man
ner that won't suit you,

Members of Taft
Club Requested to
Get Busy at Polls

The officers of the Wapello
County Taft club which, though
organized but a few weeks ago
now has a membership Of more
than 2,0O0, have issued the fol
lowing letter:
To the members Of the Wapello
County Taft club:
We believe each member OF
the club has joined with the
purpose of doing all within his
power to aid in the reelection
of President Taft. All Of us are
convinced that the people of
the United States will be better
served by the continuance OF
present conditions, than by the
adoption of policies advocated
by other candidates than those
of the republican party. The
Wapello County Taft club was
organized for work, and the
members expect to work for
the principles which President
Taft represents.
Therefore, between this time
and election day let all Of US
do what we can to win votes
for the president; and on elec-
ton day itself let all of US de-
vote as much time as possible
in an effort to get out
the republican vote. and
in an effort to induce those
Of other party affiliations to
vote for their own best inter
ests by casting their ballots for
the Taft electors.
Yours very sincerely,

ant board and there should be no
doubt about his reelection.
Albert M. Deyoe, republican candi-
date for state superintendent of public
instruction, has served one term Ii Of
fice and that term has been signalized
by an earnest purpose to improve the
country schools. "The rural high
school is just as essential to COM
plete system Of rural educational as
the town high school is to complete
system Of education for the city" he
says in advancing one Of the PROPOSE
tions on which he seeks reelection.
Mr.. Deyoe has served many years as

John l.. Bleakly, republican candi-
date for state auditor has served four
years In that ONCE and seeks a re-
election on the record he has made as
a painstaking and efficient public Of
fetal and on the precedent which
gives such an Official three terms. An
other argument in favor of his cleo
ton Is that he will be the only mem
Der left of the state executive council,
which is the board Of directors Of the
states business, and it Is important
that an experienced man should be
left on that board The auditors Of

Bleakly has had training and expert
ence that renders him an invaluable
public servant in that office.
Judge Byron W. Preston Of Oska-

publican ticket for supreme judge are
leaders IN the legal profession in Iowa.
The voters vote for two judges Of the

tain the high prestige Of the supreme
court of Iowa.
