Argentine a Competitor.

Washington, May l7.-Representa.
tive Haugen has put into the Congress
sional Record some figures on Argen'
tine beef which are attracting no little
netice here. He sought to show that
Argentine beef imports are being sold
% far west as Chicago and not simply
in cities along the Atlantic coast.
He said the first trainload of Argen-
tine dressed beef reached Chicago in
March and.commission dealers.there re-
ported it was above expectations COM
pairing favorably with beef from $500
to $8.4O steers.
A week later Mr. Haugen ssent his
own corn finished cattle to Chicago
and got $500 to s7.4O for them. Mr..
Haugen feels that Argentine meet UNI
der the circumstances is real COM
petitor for the western product.-Cres-
co Times.
Inasmuch as envthing we might say
contrary to the statements above would
be s.vile and indecent" and beneath
the dignity of reply from the
Times editor, in refutation OF Mr..
Haugen's Juggling Of the facts we ap-
pend the following from the Des
Moines Register and Leader, the lead
ing Republican paper Of the state.
dexter, Ia..-To the Editor: = no.
tice an article in the Register and Lead
er, May II, 1914, Sunday regarding
Argentine beef, wherein you lsay Kep'
resentative Haugen lad made some
figures put in the Congressional kec-
ord. Now, l want to say one OF three
things, Representative Haugen is try
ine to mislead the people, either ne
sent very poor quality Of "corn i'm
ished'' steers to the Chicago market
or his commission firm are very poor
statesmen. The fact that.fat cattle IN
March, when he reports sending them
were selling as high as $50 and So. Az,
his report Of selling 'corn finished
there for 81. 90 and s7,40 does not SOUND
ike.facts. Any:cattle feederknows that
stockers and feeders were bringing
more than that in March 1914. We
cattle feeders are, OF course, interest
ca in the outcome of the removal OF
the tariff on beef, but let us be honest
about the facts and not misrepresent
things in order to play politics will
just add, il this is a sample Of Mr..
Haugen's cattle feeding he had better
work politics instead.

Death Of Mrs. Daly.

At the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Thos. j. Burke, in Union Prairie town
ship, Thursday, June 10, 1914, occurred
the death of Mrs. Mary Daily. She
WAS born in Ireland and had reached
the advanced age of 81 years and

the infirmities of old age.
Mrs. DAILY was one of the early resi-.
dents of " inneshiek county. She also
lived in Cresco. Howard county. where
her husband preceded her to the Ograve
about ten years ago. For the past
nine years she has made her home with
Mrs. Burke.

kind and loving mother one son. John

R. F. Button of Cresco, Mrs. Mary

and Mrs. thomas Burke of Union Prai-
RE township, all of whom were at her
bedside when she passed away.

man and lived long and useful life
She was good wife and mother, and
by precept and practice trained her
children in the paths of rectitude,
having the great happiness Of seeing
them grow up to splendid manhood and
Her life's..work was well
done and she has earned the reward of
life everlasting. May her soul rest in
peace!

The Hardlng-Myers Contest.

More Importance is likely to attach
to the campaign announcements OF
Lieutenant Governor Harding and Of 0.
P. Myers, his Democratic opponent,
than to those of any Of the other candii-
dates on the state ticket, because of
the peculiar relations each holds to his
own party following.
Lieutenant Governor Harding was
vigorously opposed by section of
Republicans because of his alleged
friendliness to the liquor interests,
while Mr.. Myers was as vigorously
opposed by a section of the Democrats
because of his alleged leanings toward
prohibition. Each succeeded in being
the choice of q majority in the Pri-
marics; neither will succeed in polling
bis full party vote in the election.
The question to be answered in these
opening statements of the campaign is
whether one or both candidates, recog-
MIXING an element of hostility in his own
party, will make an effort to compen-
safe himself by appealing to the opposi-
ton to his opponent in the other party.
thereby bringing on a general debate
over the liquor question, the Democrat
ic candidate asking for arti-saloon sup
port and the Republican candidate
rallying the "wets" Of all parties.
It may be that both candidates will
feel themselves and their personal rela.
lions to the liquor question over.
Swallowed by other candidates. and other
issues and will attempt to adjust them
selves to a conventional campaign.
But neither can be unconscious Of the
fact that the liquor question is bound
to be considered and that thousands OF
voters will look upon that as q para.
mount issue.
There will certainly be great strain.
ing at the leash if MIR. Myers, fol
instance, discovering prevailing dis.
position to have presiding officer il
the senate chamber who can be depend
ed upon not to loosen up, does not 60
to the people with an emphatic plat
form, and if Mr.. Harding, knowing
what certain Republicans will most
certainly do in the election, does not
attempt to get his views presented in
q friendly way to the Democrats who
will never vote for Mr.. Myers.-Des
