MOORE WITH CORPORATIONS.
Republican Candidate Voted Against
Corrupt Practice Bill.

Ernest r. Moore, Cedar Rapids
capitalist, Republican candidate for
lieutenant governor, opposed the pas
sage in the 32d General Assembly in
1907, of the bill requiring publication
of candidates expenses and for the
prevention of corrupt practices in poll
tics, in one of the most stormy de-
bates of the session.
Moore was the Quartermaster on
the staff Of Col. w. G. BOWS during
the Spanish American war and Is still
one Of his faithful lieutenants in poll
tical and business life. Had Moore
won his battle to prevent the passage
Of the Darrah bill, House File No.
at, Bows could have given his $1,000
contribution to the Harding primary
fund without publicity. In tho old
days tho corporations ruled Iowa
through contributions to campaign
funds and Moore evidently wanted
this to continue. But Moore's efforts
failed for the bill passed IS to 81
absent or not voting IL.
In the days when Judge Hubbard
ran Iowa Republican politics through
his railroad attorneys, Moore was
given his political education, and has
not changed with the times. He is a
typical servant Of the privileged
classes.
