The coming election will determin,
the choice or rejection of the best

the last few years great religious
movements have been started and
the people are beginning TO awaken

of this work is done by hand to hand

quick in times of distress and al

of tho church during times of revival,
as soon as the pressure is removed

to the question, What has really been
accomplished during his incum-
bency? Mr.. Ketchum outlined
a few of the more important, indi-
eating his clear, concise way Of de-
termining the best way to achieve re-
suits: "ln the first place the con-
sideration at hand is the action of the
commission which has saved thou
sands of dollars to the shipper and
the public generally. The railroads
were treated fairly, and yet the con-
sumner was benefited. There have
been two express rate reductions, ag-
gregating % per cent. The rule has
been promulgated whereby shippers
compelled to use two railroads saved
20 per cent under the so-called 80 per
cent joint rate order. The express rate
charges are now the lowest graduated
scale of charges of any state in the
United States. We have reduced the
rate on shipments Of live stock in
Iowa 20 per cent We have the low
est local freight rates in the union,
because of the reductions the COM
mission has made. Rates on brick
and tile were reduced so per cent;
wagons, etc, II per cent; minimum
weight on stock food, 30 per cent;
small package freight charges from
40 to % per cent. Mr.. Ketchum is
acknowledged as a consistent expo
nent of the views of the Iowa state
welfare promoters and stands for all
that means in railroad commission
work. Voters are not forgetting
these points Of excellence in his
record.

Des Moines last January. On this
occasion it will be remembered he
said that if he were elected governor
he would go into Office a perfectly
free and independent man, bound by
III pledges or promises"; that he
would do everything he could proper
ly do to reorganize OF bring about a
reorganization of the school system:
that he would do all lie could for
solution of the good roads problem;
would stand for reorganization OF
the present system Of taxation, and
lend all the aid he could; would do
ell he could to better legal procedure,
decreasing court expenses and pre-
venting delays; and would work for
many other reforms that the people
OF Iowa have been trying to obtain in
years past, because he believes the
time foE these reforms is ripe.
Mr.. Clarke is unequivocal in his
stand for a wOrkmen's compensation
law, where occupations are hazardous
and dangerous, for better sanitation
and stringent laws favoring pure
water supply; for reform in prison
management; and towards extending
every reasonable aid and just emcour-
agenefst TO 4+aee
and more intensively agricultural
Economical in his private life. il is
natural for him to urge every meas
ure looking TO economy of admins
tration, and this he stated he desired
TO attain, thus reducing the burden of
taxation. Mr.. Clarke is irrevOcabIy
pledged against graft of every name
and nature, and all have agreed who
have known him that he will, if elect
ed, conduct the public business of the
state with the same care that good
business men conduct their private
affairs.
Mr.. Clarke takes no halfway
ground, and all admire him for de-
claring he is a republican standing
for good government on the score
that in the past the results of the
agency of the republican party have
Furnished the brightest pages of its
history. TO have the best and all
that is in such man as George w.
Clarke will be as Governor Of Iowa
If he is the choice at the polls in No
e"mber is conceded to be so great
Boon that the voters will doubtless
avail themselves of the privilege by
giving him sufficient and substan-
tial support to elect him.

BLACK PATTI At THE
TEMPLE THURSDAY NIGHT

Ask any person versed in musical
matters what race of people are the
most musical and have the best voices
as a whole, and he or she will reply
without hesitation, the negro or color
ed race. It is seldom that you will
find any member of this race that can
not play some musical instrument or
that is not the possessor Of pleasant
singing voice. and in most cases, no
matter how illiterate he may be in
other matters, It seems to be natural
for him TO be proficient in this respect.
The sense of humor is. also highly de-
veloped, and TO use common express
sion the negro is a natural-bor COM
edian. The Black Patti Musical Com
edy Company which is composed en-
! tirely of this race Of people, is now in
its seventeenth consecutive season,
and it is said by the press and public
everywhere, TO be one of the best
musical companies on the road. The
book of Captain Jasper" is by VIII
Cooke, one of our foremost co1ored
comedians, and is veritable mine of
comedy and sweet music of the
whistling kind. Black Patti (Madame
jones' is this season at her best and
the surrounding company is entirely
adequate. The Black Patti Company
