If it is made in Iowa, it Is good
enough for ENTHUSIASTICALLY Re-
publican.
As general proposition that is
correct, but when it comes to street
paving in Webster City the Iowa
product, which is good enough for
such towns as Mason City, Eldora,
LeMars, Marshalltown, etc., will not
do, We must import our materials
from other states.

The Rockford Register says that
LATE Young's refusal to support
Senator Cummins for president will
tend to increase. rather than de-
crease, the senator's chances OF sue
cess. Wonder If this is the explain
alton of some of the so-called pro-
gressives of Hamilton county work
ing so hard against the reelection
Of Kenyon?

If some of the reliable Iowa dailies
would take a presidential preferen-
tial vote, making a whirlwind cam
paign, the result would show whom
the popular favorite is. Out in Ne
braska the Lincoln Journal is taking
such a vote and Roosevelt is getting
more than all other candidates COM
bined. Such poll in this state
would no doubt show Senator Cum
Minis to be the choice of the people
by at least four to one. The Regis
ter and Leader, the Sioux City Trib-
une, Marshalltown Times-Republi-
can or some other trustworthy pa
per ought to get such an expression.

bad mess for the prospective bor-

When did Iowa go back on a ma
tional republican administration? p
Des Moines Capital.
And when did the republicans OF
Iowa ever desert an Iowa candidate
for observation-disclosures City Free
man-Tribune.
In 1907 when the governor and
controlling element refused to back
Leslie M. Shaw for president.-Bur-
lington Hawk-Eye.
Leslie M. Shaw was not a candi-
date for president in 1907 or any
other year. True, he "felt around
a little and finding some opposition
decided not to enter the contest. Had
he been candidate he would prob
ably have had the united delegation
from this state. Up to this time the
republicans of Iowa have never de-
serted an Iowa candidate for presi-
dent.

The Sioux City Journal wants to
know if the Freeman-Tribune would
support Col. Young were he the Iowa
candidate for president. That would
depend upon the political situation.
If Taft were the leading candidate
against the colonel, the Freeman
Tribune would support the Iowa
man. At this writing the Freeman
Tribune believes the chances for re-
publican success at the polls would
be much better with Col. Young as
the nominee than with President
Taft as the standard bearer. Per-
haps the situation will change with
the fleeting days. Taft is undoubt-
edly stronger than he was a few
months ago. Had the election been
held last fall the republican party
Webster City freeman. [volume] (Webster City, Hamilton County, Iowa) 1884-1946, 1912-02-20

wouldn't have carried half dozen
states for Taft at the election 1t is to
be regretted that the situation is as it
is. But there are hundreds Of re-
publicans in this county-men who
have never voted any other ticket
for president-who declare they
will not support Mr.. Taft If nomi-
mated. Possibly they will think bet
ter of Mr.. Taft by next November,
should he be made the standard
bearer of the party.
SIS Roosevelt a bigger man than
George Washington" inquiries the

third term movement. The Sioux
City Journal, in criticising the third

and irrelevant. The question the vot-
ers will determine is, is Roosevelt a

Out in Crawford county, r. G..
Jackson entered into an agreement
with F. G. Block to circulate a con-
sent saloon petition and use his in
f1uence to get signatures. jackson
was to receive $500 for the work.
When it came to showdown Block
refused to pay and Jackson brought
suit in the district court. Judge
Powers decided for the defendant,
holding such a contract to be
against public policy and void.
The state tax commission of Iowa
will probably recommend the adop-
ton of an income tax law patterned
after the Wisconsin statute. If they
do 1t will be interesting to watch
the antics of Col. Young, who de-
clared in his paper not long ago that
such a tax was a fad that penaliz-
ed thrift. When taken to task
for the statement, the colonel side
stepped and said that he had always
favored such tax-fad or no fad.
There is one fad, at least, in
which Gov. Wilson does not believe.
and that is the recall of judges. In
an address in Chicago on Lincoln's
birthday Mr.. Wilson said: II have
never favored the recall of judges,
because they are not administrative
officers. of the government. They
simply interpret and enforce the
law. To urge the recall Of judges is
to treat a symptom rather than the
disease President Taft and Gov.
Wilson are together on this propo-
sition If on nothing else.

1t has been suggested that Grimm

ed for experiments in medicine and
surgery. The criminal could be CIV

pulsory, in sense. But in view
of the fact that there are so many
people who object to medical and
surgical experiments on animals, ev-
en- when every precaution is taken
to prevent unnecessary pain, the
proposal in regard to criminals Is
not likely to get very far.-Daven-

This suggestion appears more re-
pulsive than it really is. AS mat

ever, the people will never consent
to disposing of criminals in such

YAKEL Hello ON
MURDER CHARGE
Man Who killed Pal in Hold.
up at Darlington Must
Stand Trial.

Darlington, N. D., Nov .11.-George
Yakel, about is ear of age. has con-
fessed to firing the shot which killed
Ernest Howard at the 500 depot here
early last Friday morning. James Ry-
an, who also gave his age as about
10 years. has admitted that he was
with Yakel and Howard when the
shooting occurred.
1t appears that Yakei, Ryan and
Howard had been hanging around
Darlington Tuesday night with a cou-
pie of other parties. n of whom
flashed a good-s!zed roll once or twice
during the evening.
About midnight the men went down
to the 500 depot and Yakel. Howard
and Ryan made plans to hold the two
men up. Howard appears to have been
the ring leader and he instructed va
KEEL to go into the mems waiting room,
cover the two men with his revolver
and order them outside. Howard and
Ryan We're to remain outside and
when the two men came out, one of
the men was to be allowed to get
away while they turned their atten-
ton to the man who had the money.
Yakel followed Instructions and the
two men came running outside, and

almost instantly. Seeing that Howard
was dead. Yakel headed for the
Northern Pacific yards and caught a
freight just leaving the city in the d.
rection Of Jamestown. He got part
way an dwas obliged to get off and
wait for the passenger train the next
day. which took him on to James
town where he was captured on Tues
day by the authorities.

keeping out Of sight, but was avpre-
hended during the early part Of the
week by the town marshal and placed
under arrest. According to Ryan's
story Yakel had had. instructions a
number of times never to shoot and
he could not understand why Yakel
had fred. unless he had become ex.
cited and lost his head.
Yakel was brought back to Car
rington and admitted that he shot
Howard, but that the shooting waa
entirely unintentional. He appears to
realize the seriousness of his crime
and is hopeful that the authoritiea
will be satisfied with giving him life
imprisonment.
1t is apparent from the story told
by the two men that Howard was
the :eader. Howard was about IS
or 40 years of age.
Yakel and Ryan are charged with
murder In the first degree.
