The cannot consistently vote against
the party because some candidate may
not suit him in all respects. He votes
a republican ticket from principle and
thus carries out his desire to maintain
in office the party OF his choice. There
lis no other way a party can be kept in
fpower except through voting for the
candidates of that party and anyone
who fiatters himself that he is re.
publican and at the same time votes
the democratic ticket deceiyes himeslf
and betrays his party.
We have nominated county ticket
in Crawford county this year made
up of men Of reputed ability and char.
acter, who stand as the represent.
fatives Of the republican party in this
campaign. 1t becomes the duty of the
Review as republican organ of this
county, to present these candidates
and to urge republicans to stand by
them and support them at the election
and thereby prove their loyalty to the
republican party and the county
We are able to refer to but pOr.
ton of the names Of the candidates on
the county ticket this week, but will
mention the others later on.
P. J. KLINkER
P. j. klinker, the candidate for rep.
Preventative from this county, is first
On the list and we present him as a
man who has had experience and
proved himself in Office prior to this
time. He is already holding his first
term as representative from this coun.
ty and is asking the voters to support
him for another term. It is well
known that the democrats of Iowa are
making their most earnest attack in
the coming election on candidates on
the republican tickets for the legisla.
ture. They are already planning to
secure the legislature in order to con.
troll legislation on the liquor ques.
ton, and legislation hostile to what
! the democratic candidate for governor
has adopted for use in the campaign
lon the theory that he can secure the
support of the temperance people.
Everybody in the state, outside OF rad.
ical temperance advocates, knows that
the governor has little or nothing to
do with Legislation bearing on the tenn.
perance question. If the legislature
chooses not to enact any legislation
there will be none enacted. II, on the
other hand, it sees fit to change the
laws, the power isi lodged with this
branch of the government and not
with the governor. This may explain
to some extent, the reason for the Bull.
letin's, attack in its last issue on Mr.
Klinker, the republican candidate for
the legislature
Mr.. Klinker, in his legislative work
during the last general assembly
proved himself an active and capable
Legislator. He introduced number
Of bills, some Of which became laws
and are part of the statutes of Iowa
With the experience he has already
had and his recognized ability, on one
can doubt but What at the coming SEES
sion of the Legislature he will be one
of the most efficient and capable law
makers. His education, largely. Sc
cured through his own efforts, work
ing his. way as he did through the
State University OF. Iowa, fits him for
work Of the character which falls to
law maker, and it is safe to say that

ture heswill be one Of the prominent
men of that body The voters Of
Crawford count y recall the record he
has made in the past when he has
been candidate for Office. The party
in the county has depended upon him
with confidence in the past and there
is no doubt about his ability to give a
good account of himself this year when
conditions are more favorable for the
republican ticket than for many years.
We predict that he will carry Craw
ford county with safe majority, and
will be returned to the Legislature tC.

session of the general assembly. &
