WILLIAM NJ. FRANKLIN.

Why some predict Senator VIM. NJ
Franklin viii lead the ticket for con
gressman-atlarge;
First Nothing can be said against
his character.
Second. 1t is pretty generally con
ceded that he has made the grandest
record in the interest of the masses
of people of any man in either house
|of the legislature, including the most
merciful of our humanitarian laws
and laws that are saving money to the
taxpayers of the state. He is a man
who has done good things, and he can
safely invite an investigation into his
past life and record.
Third. His broad acquaintance. his
sincerity and effectiveness as a cam
paigner, give him many active work
ers throughout the state. His speeches
have been declared the "quintessence
of political wisdom" He delves into
the fundamental problems of govern.
ment, and those who hear him believe
he knows what he talks about and
will endeavor to do things if elected
to congress as he has in the state.
Fourth. He has covered more of
the state speaking and with literature
than any other man in the race and
has the support of many papers in the
state.

Ito those who contemplate mailing par.
cells under the new system.
All packages must DE taken to the
l main postoffice and not left at sub
stations or in or on the street mail
boxes, No provision Is made under
the parcels post rules and regulations
| for collection beyond that which
now exists. which does not include
these parcels.
| All packages received at the Keo,
kuk postoffice by incoming mails or
mailed at that office for local deliv-
cry will be delivered promptly, The
carrier force will be utilized for this
distribution to the extent OF its abii-
| ty.
Packages which cannot be deliver.
ed by letter carriers will be delivered
by vehicle hired for that purpose.
Additional clerical and carrier help
will be employed il found necessary
to insure efficient services.
II people will only follow the simple
regulations, they may be assured tina.
DIR. Moorehead. Keokuk's postmaster,
will do the rest and an efficient and
satisfactory service will be the result.
Be sure to take your package or
parcels to the main postoffice and do
no. trust to luck by leaving them
carelessly at a sub-station or lying
unprotected on U. S. street mail
box, expecting to receive efficient and
safe service from Uncle Sam, as he
cannot be made responsible for your
carelessness, and If your package rs
lost there is not the semblance Of re
course for the collection of any dam
age for It's loss. A remembrance OF
this will probably prevent trouble
and loss. A distinct line should be
drawn in your mind between articles
to he sent by the new parcels post
system and packages sent by the or
binary postoffice system where the
usual postage stamps are used. There
is difference and this difference
must be strictly observed to insure
general satisfaction all around.
DIR. Moorehead is spending much
thought and time in preparing for the
new parcels post system and he
should have the hearty cooperation
of Keokuk people in his endeavors
BY a casual study of the system dur
ing idle moments they will familiar
lze themselves with the regulations.
SO that no very material mistakes
will be made and the postoffice en-
ployes will be much aided in their
new work.

Here is the flow of SOUL without

minis has not wrecked the republican

Nothing can be gained by deliber.
ately refusing to apply common sense
to the situation. The republican par
ty is not dead although it has APP
preached that stage of dissolution
where the attending physicians must
be mighty careful of their diagnosis
and of the medicines they prescribe.
When the leaders refused to allow
the party to remain responsive to pop
ular demand they dealt the party a
telling blow, and invited the present
discord. 1t lies within the power OF
these leaders to rehabilitate the parry

through which popular government 10

within the next four years,
