Wilson for Connolly

SOililOIiy lcSS DuICoU, w oSll"
ington. D. c., Oct, 23.-Wood-
row Wilson. President of the
United States this afternoon
delegated himself in favor Of
the election of Maurice Connel.
|y for United States Senator.
His action in sending q ringing
endorsement of the brilliant
young Iowan to the people Of
the Hawkeye state, was unusual
and due to the fact, that Presi.
dent Wilson is a great admirer
of Mr.. Connolly, and to the fur
ther fact that he is anxious
that the administrations most
reactionary opponent, A. B.
Cummins, be eliminated from
national policies. President
Wilson's endorsement is con.
tanned in a letter to Judge Mar
tin j. Wade of Iowa City, the
national committeeman from
Iowa and follows in full. "Hon.
M. j. Wade National Commit.
teeman for Iowa, Iowa City,
Iowa." Dear Sir.-My associa-
tjon with Mr.. Connolly here in
Washington was given me the
deepest interest in his candi-
dacy for the senate. l have
seen his quality tested and /
know it is genuine. l sincere
ly hope that the voters of Iowa
will send him to the United
States Senate. He is a man of
uncommonly high principles.
Views the interests Of the
country as a man of principal
should, and l would feel conf
dent. serve the state in q way
which would lend it additional
distinction in the councils of
the nation.
Yours Very Truly,
Woodrow Wilson.
There could be no stronger
endorsement. President Will
son is unqualified in his en-
dorsement of Mr.. Connolly.
The Iowa fight is the Wilson
fight. The man who believes
in Woodrow Wilson and whn
would cast a vote for him, II
he were before the people this
fall, should, if he were sincere,
vote for Maurice Connolly. He
should aid in sending the friend
of the administration, Maurice
Connolly to the Senate. He
should aid in retiring the enemy
of the administration, A. B.
Cummins, to private life. Pres.
Wilson's action is believed tc
insure the election of Mr.. Con.
molly, as Iowa is regarded az q
Wilson state, and the people Of
Iowa knowing that Wilson
wants Connolly. are expected
to select Connolly. A vote fol
Connolly is a vote for Wilson
4 A vote for Cummins is q vote
against Wilson.

j. S. DeWell
In our issue of October Is.
we advocated the election OF
j. s Dewell fer State Senator
in this district.
Referring to this cffice tn.
Denison Review, under date OF
October 81, among other things,
says: "James s DewelI, the
candidate received his early
education in the common
schools of Cedar county, then
entered the Agricultural COL
lege at Ames, from which in.
stitute he graduated in 1881,
and afterwards graduated in
the law department of the Iowa
State university. At one time
Mr.. Dewell was in partnership
with Edgar Garrison, formerly
from Denison. He was elected
to the office of county attorney
of Harrison county, which of.
flee he filled ably and we'll. He
has from time to time attended
state conventions as a republi-
can delegate from Harrison
county. He was a member of
the republican state central
committee from the Ninth Con-
gressional district, which posi-
sion he filled with credit to
tmself and friends.
Mr. Dewell is one of the
Aeading lawyers of Harrison
county and enjoys the confd-
ence and respect of the court,
members of the bar, litigants
and people generally of that
county. He has a large num-
ber of personal friends and
stands we'll with the republican
party, Of which he is a member.
Mr.. Dewell does not pose as
q spell binder. He is a good
speaker and able to present his
views in a logical way. His
life and environments have
been such that he has been
brought in close contact with
the farming and stock interests
Of western Iowa as we'll as edu-
cational problems in which the
people are interested, all of
which will enable him, if elect
ed senator, to represent the
district in a creditable manner.
He has never posed as a leader
in politics, but has preferred to
work shoulder to shoulder with
the members of his party and
has thereby avoided jealousies
which sometimes arise among
leaders of q party.
While not wishing to dis
criminate against other candi.
dates we think Mr.. Dewell pos.
eesses the qualifications to make
q good senator" :"
The Whiting Argus of October
%, after referring to the mat
ter of State Senator. and quot
ing from the Logan Oberver
and Missouri Valley Times
says: "Mr. Dewell attended
the Colt Show here last Satnr-
day and met manv of the vot-
ers. He is certainly a pleas
ant and genial gentleman. End

ability for the office to which
he aapires The Argus believes
Mr.. Dewell is entitled to the
vote of all Republicans in the
District

Headache is never a disease. It is
always a symptom. Applications, pow-
ders and tablets that drug the head
ache into quietude are treating the

When headache is associated with
some dizziness 1t is usually the re-
suit of nervous exhaustion and will
continue as long as the person who Is
oVerworked allows the debility to con-
tinue. 1t rapidly disappears when rest
and the proper tonic is taken.
Nervous exhaustion the cause of
such headaches and dizziness, results
from strain on the nerves with
which the rebuilding work of the
blood is unable to keep pace. The best
tonic for such a condition is DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills. These pills build up
the blood and strengthen the nerves.
with this treatment, unless the over
work, worry, or whatever has caused
the nervous breakdown, Is persisted in,
the headaches, dizziness, nervousne ess
and irritability that characterize neu-
rasthenia rapidly disappear.

on the home treatment of nervous dis
orders. DIR. Williams Pink Pills are

TEMPER SHOULD
Be CURBED NOW
Or. Dixon Gives Some Pointers on
How to Get Through the Heat
ed Season Months

DIR. Samuel G. Dixon, commissioner
of health, says that temper should be
kept down in hot weather. The COM
missioner has been writing n series of
weekend talks and this week discus
ses temper and temperance. In his re-
marks he says:
"Over two thousand years ago Con-
fucius said: Few are those who err
on the side of self-restraint.'
''All neurologists unite in the opinion
that anger has a dangerous effect on
the human system. Experiments have
been carried on to show that the vari-
Gus functions of the body are ma
terially interfered with or arrested by
excessive passion.
1T is not uncommon for illness to
follow fit of temper and for those
whose blood pressure is high or where
here is defective heart action ii is eX-
tremely dangerous. Not only those
who give way to uncontrolled passion
work an injury to themselves, but they
are almost certain to arouse a like
passion in others.
There are few occasions in life
which justify the display of righteous
anger and even in such instances it is
always a debatable question whether
calm and well directed energy would
not have accomplished far more.
During the hot weather small an
noyances are apt to be exaggerated

is THIS YOUR MINISTER =?

We have almost forgotten what that
word minister means. 1t means
servant. And this view of the min
istry ought to be impressed upon the
young men who are planning to take
up that work. Not to be educated up
away from the people, but to be
trained down to learn how the masses
live and think and feel and work; not
to think of getting high honors and
comfortable homes and big salaries,
but to long to bring Justice and COM
fort and gladness to other hearts and
homes; not to preach profound SER
mons and write learned papers, but to
snatch men away from sin and hold
them to lives of Righteousness; mot
to be ministered unto. but to minister,
and to give his life a ransom for many
that is what 1t really means to be q
minister And the really greatest min
lister is the one who really becomes
"the servant of all."-The Christian
Herald.

INIPERISHABLE ASSETS

Those seats. he proceeded to explain,
are waiting for the two people who
help the greatest number of other
people. That is the great law of the
kingdom. You see, it works like this:
Every time you help anybody that
fact is a reward in itself. Nobody can
undo the fact that you did help him.
That is eternal currency added to your
heavenly wealth. Every life you make
glad, every hour you make glad for
another. every soul you win for the
kingdom makes a condition of affairs
In the other world that will count for
your blessing forever. Furthermore,
we may get the habit of helpfulness,
and the skill and power of helpfulness,
so that we shall be efficient helpers in
heaven. So those who have helped the
most people here and thus become
most able to go on helping others will
have these highest places in heaven

NOTE col ..,.
Employees of the big chocolate fac
tory at Hershey are all agog over the
possible results of what is said to be a
romance that grew from a cake of the
confection that placed the town of
Hershey on the worlds map.
The scores of girls and boys en-
ployed are more or less reticent about
IL, but the story is something to this
effect:
Some months ago Miss Jennie Baker,
one of the prettiest girl employees,
wrapped her photograph and address
beneath the cover of a cake of Her
shey's chocolate. Then it went out into
the world and Miss Baker, it is said,
forgot all about it until

from man who said he got her mes

the other day he came out of the

perhaps-and asked Miss Baker to fix
the wedding date.

Baker wasn't entirely satisfied to wed
just yet. But the Ohioan didn't seem
to mind-not much. that is. Anyway,
he laughingly explained to a com
