A Two Great Conferences,


Within the past few days two great
conventions or conferences have been
held in the U. S. for the betterment
of the race and to adjust radical differ
noes. The first was held in Chicago
1t was the National Association for the
advancement of the colored people and
composed of some of the ablest and
highly cultured men of our race in this
age. The meeting was enthusiastic,
and helpful to our present condition.
They took a stand for equal rights
justice and fairplay to our race and all
mankind. The other one was the great
conference of the different races Of
mankind from all countries, held at
Tuskegee, Ala. Eighteen foreign coun-
tries and twenty-five different religious
denominations was represented. Many
very great and able men. This meet
ing was certainly very suggestive that
a better and brighter day is coming in
this land for the sons Of the Freedman.
The concentration of the great strong
men to bring about harmony, peace
and prosperity for all races will ultima
tely be consumated ere soon. We all
can assist in bringing about those con-
ditions. Live, act, and die that your
fellow man may see your good works
and be constrained to say there was a
noble character, good citizen, real
man.

OUR PRIZE CONTEST

In this weeks issue will be
found the report of the committee
on the contest for subscribers just
closed. While there were 20
contestants entered, only five re-
ported at the goal line. While
we had hoped for better results,
yet, all things considered, with
the extreme long hard cold win.
ter, money was scarce and those
faithful few who did work are
deserving of the highest COM
mendation for their success under
such unfavorable season, however
so many of our friends said that
that those prizes offered are most
liberal and why not try it again
soon. We may decide to open a
great fall contest, so those who
wish to enter may be PERMITTED
to so do. We thank those who
did enter, also the judges in their
findings. We shall allow all
those the regular commission
that we give our agents any way,
selling that they should be en-
couraged.

Z. 8. KETCHUM FOR RAILROAD
COMMISSIONER.

This paper takes pleasure in preser'-
ing in this issue the candidacy Of N. 8.
Ketchum, of Marshalltown, for railroad
commissioner. He has made record
in the past five years that he can point
to with pride. Every interest that has
come before him has received careful
shipper or the railroad. He has never
swerved from what he has considered
his duty as public official.
He has been citizen Of Iowa for the
past SO years. He has always been a
consistent Republican and has always
been found working for a "Greater
Iowa. His years of experience as a
manufacturer and shipper qualities him
to deal with those questions which come
between the shippers and the transpor
tation companies. He is qualified to
deal with classifcations and rate prob
lens. His record for the past five years
as a member of the board of railway
commissioners proves him to be a fair
and just man. He has been fair to
the shipper while imposing no onerous
burdens upon the railroads. He has
decided every question which has come
before him for adjudication upon a
just and impartial basis. He has not
tried to make a record, but has OBJ.
served his oath Of Office impartially to
every interest.
We commend his candidacy to every
Republican voter Of our state. He
has proved himself an honor to the
state and the state should take delight
in honoring him. He is a good friend
of the colored people and solicits their
vote.
