DOCTORS SLEEP
Found He Had to Leave Of Coftee.

Many persons do not realize that
bad stomach will cause insomnia.
Coffee and tea drinking being such
an ancient and respectable form OF
habit, few realize that the drug-caf-
feine-contained in coffee and tea, Is
one OF the principal causes of dys-
pepsia and nervous troubles.
Without their usual portion of cof-
fee or tea, the caffeine topers are
nervous, irritable and fretful. That's
the way with a whisky drinker. he

To leave off coffee or tea is an easy
matter if you want to try it, because
Postum gives gentle but natural
support to the nerves and does not
contain any drug-nothing but food.
PHYSICIANS know this to be true, as

The chase finally wound up in a

HOLDEN CANDIDACY
Urges Friends to Join Him in Support
of Professor Holden.

at is we'll to remember that no
forward movement through legisla-
ton has ever been accomplished un.
til someone made up and presented
the issue to the people in such way
that the all powerful force and infiu-
ence of public sentiment was brought
to bear upon the law making authori-
ties of the state" said H. w. Byers,
former attorney general, in Register
and Leader interview concerning the
things that he wants to see done.
"And all that l have suggested is
in the direction of greater and bet
ter Iowa. 1t is because Mr.. Holden
has made and is presenting the ISSUE
of a greater Iowa along these lines,
and because / believe he is not only
equipped to accomplish what he is
preaching, but has the disposition to
do so that l have decided to support
him in his candidacy for the governor
ship, and to recommend him to my
friends throughout the state"

MURPHY FOR HOLDEN.

Bernard Murphy, editor of the Vim
ton Eagle, has expressed himself rel
ative to the Holden candidacy for gov
ernor exactly as thousands of voters
are now thinking. He says:
"Mr. Holden's candidacy will be a
relief to those who are tired of the
political strenuosity Of the past ten
years. There is large element in the
republican party in Iowa who wish to
be classed as republicans. This they
can do under such man as Professor
Holden. Since coming to Iowa he has
devoted his time and talents in work
which was for the betterment Of the
state. His voice has been raised for
that which would build busine
farms, homes, churches and schoc
He has spent none of his time in hurl-
ing epithets at his political associates.
In his candidacy he will not have to
wear any mans brand; nor any ele-
ment's collar. He will simply stand
as republican. The rank and file of
the party-that great element whose
only thought is on what will bring
success to the party as an organiza-
tion-will rally to Professor Holden's
standard. They will simply be
brar3ed as republicans.

HOLDEN NO LONGER AT AMEs

Many folks say: Holden is all
right, but l am in favor of keeping
him at the Agricultural College. He
can do US more good there than as
governor" This talk is simply part
Of the politicians effort to defeat him.
When Holden became candidate,
ne at once resigned at Ames. He
does not believe in holding one job
while running for another.
1t is no longer a question of keep
Ing him at Ames. He is no longer
there, and will not be. The question
is whether or not we shall make him
governor
A member of the Greater Des
Moines Committee said, not long ago:
Our committee has been spending
about $4,000 year to advertise Des
Moines and Iowa. If we should elect
Holden governor, it would be worth
as much to the state of Iowa as $780,
600 in cash spent in advertising"
Holden made good at Ames. He
will make good as governor.

WHAT A LEADING BUSINESS
MAN THINKS.

Mr.. F. NJ. Hubbell, Of Des Moines,
is one of the most successful men In
the entire state. In recent interview
In the Register and Leader he said:
"Mr. Holden's campaign is broad
and comprehensive and should be ac-
ceptable to all who are sincerely in
terested in Iowa's real growth and de-
velopment," he said.
"The last fifty years have wit
messed a remarkable pioneer develop
ment in the middle west. 1t has been
the outgrowth of immediate pioneer
needs.
"The next fifty years must witness
development along we'll defined lines
with specific purposes in mna All
that have is located in Des Moines,
and l naturally want to see the city
and state prosper. The city's great
est prosperity is most intimately con-
nected with the prosperity of the
whole state.
"Our cities are growing faster than
the population of the country" Mr..
Hubbell continued. "In order that this
development shall be wholesome and
substantial, the development of the
country districts must keep pace with
the growth of the cities.
Knows Real Conditions.
"As understand it, Mr.. Holden is
advocating this very doctrine and is
emphasizing the intensive develop
ment of our farms. His work among
the people of Iowa during the past
ten years, ] balieve, has acquainted
him with the real conditions ana needs
of both town and country. This town
and country growth must be we'll bal
anced. The growth during the past
ten years shows that the cities are
growing larger and the population in
the country and small towns growing
less. | feel that this condition of un-
equal growth is surely the result of
our failure in the past to understand
some important fundamentals.
cit appears to me that Mr.. Holden
is especially fitted to lead in a great
campaign to correct these conditions.
"The spirit that has been manifest
ed in the city of Des Moines since the
organization of the Greater Des
Moines committee is the spirit which
should permeate the whole state.
"Holden's policies for "a Greater
Iowa seem to me to be in keeping
with this spirit. am convinced that
we need less selfish politics.
"The feature of Mr.. Holden's cam
didacy that appeals to me >

past ten years"

POLITICS..

Perry G. Holden, republican cam
didate for governor, says: 1.-THE peo-
pie must take willing and serious in
terest in the business of government
An officer should be a servant of
the people-not their boss.
"We must learn to say what we
mean and mean exactly what we say
in politics as in other business.
eve should create public senti-
ment for the best in government, then
politics will mean service, not graft.
Intelligent interest in public mat
tiers by all the people is the price of
self government.
"Our busiest and most trustworthy
men must not refuse service for the
people.
"Our schools must train our boys
and girls to take an interest in gov
ernmental matters.
Government, which is simply an
other term for the peoples business,
should be conducted exactly as the
people want it conducted in seri-
Gus, honest, upright and earnest man.
ner, to the end that it may secure for
the people the greatest possible COM
forts and blessings of life.
1--WE would regard with contempt
that administrator or guardian who
should betray affairs of an estate for
personal gain as to deprive the boy
of his rightful inheritance. Unfortu-
nately, the betrayal of the peoples
trust placed in our officers is not al
ways so regarded.
"There is nothing so fundamentally
wrong and disastrous to good govern
ment as the oft repeated sentiment
that anything is fair and honorable
in politics"
"Why should we say and do things
in politics that no honorable man
would say or do in the performance
of his ordinary business and social af-
fairs?
"Custom, habit and all for some
personal or selfish gain-certainly not
for the peoples welfare"

SMASHING THE SLATE.

OF course it cannot be denied that
Professor Holden's candidacy is a
smashing of the bosses slate such as
it has not had in years, but that is not
a dement,, it is merit, the time is
ripe for it, it is needed. The slate
had it all diagramad for Clarke, no
other progressive" was to enter the
field. The people had all this nicely
and completely arranged for them.
All they were supposed to do was to
do as it had been arranged by the
bosses. The holy primary was the
machinery to "let the people say"
what the bosses put in their mouths.
Holden's candidacy dynamites all that
so fine there is not an identifying
shred of it.-Easls Grove Earle.

HUNGERFoRD FOR HOLDEN.

j. B. Hungerford, editor of the
Carroll Herald and recently elected
president of the Iowa Editorial asso-
citation, formerly served as president
of the board of trustees of Iowa State
college.
Mr.. Hungerford says editorially:
"We respectfully decline to form an
estimate of Professor Holden on in
formation furnished by the political
friends of any other candidate. We
were on the committee that induced
him to come to Iowa from Illinois,
where he had made reputation as
an educator and business man. We
were intimately associated with his
work for years and had an opportun-
ity to know the calibre, the tempera-
ment and the merits of the man. Our
knowledge of him is first hand. 1t
comes from direct contact Hence,
under the circumstances, we have no
milsglvings as to his ability, his train
ing, or his purposes. He is big
enough for governor; he is sufficient
fy poised, he has the right spirit. If
chosen for governor, the state will
have in Holden man that will meet
every emergency in wise and states
manlike manner.
eve are supporting Holden be-
cause we believe in the Greater Iowa
movement; we believe in the freedom
Of the private voter and his right to
choose without the dominating inter-
ference of officeholders and would-be
office holders. Investigation will re-
veal that he has been absolutely
square in all his relations with the
college and with every person with
whom he has dealt since coming to
the state. We believe that we know
as we'll as any man in the state the
history of Holden's work and his re-
lations to the public and his associ-
ates, and we have absolute confidence
in his ability and integrity"
