.GOE. COSSON FOR GOV.
ERNOR.

Editor Bystander: Having been
interrogated by number of the Ne
gro voters of the staet with refer
ence to the record of Lieut.. Governor
w. L. Harding (now candidate for
! nomination for governor) on the Ne
gro question, and being myself a
member Of several Negro fraterni-
ties as we'll as president of the Des
Moines branch Of the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of
Colored People, l feel it my duty to
request space in the columns of your
valuable paper in which to make
public the fact that it was this same
w. L. Harding who, when a member
Of the lower house of our state leg
islature in the spring of 1909, intro
duced what is commonly known as
the Harding BILL" but officially as
house file No. 1876 of the 33rd gener-
al assembly, which had it passed
would have put out of business every
Negro secret society in Iowa using
the same or similar name or en-
blem with any such society of white
people and would have included all
Negro Masons, chapters of o. E. S.,
Odd Fellows, Pythians and Elks; and
that it was only through the timely
action Of Mr.. R. N. Hyde, promi-
nent Elk; Rev. P. S. Erwin, promi-
nent Odd Fellow, and Rev. A. Ford,
the writer and other members Of the
Masonic fraternity that this pernic-
ious bill was killed in the committee
room.
This is fact that is noted by

master of Iowa Negro Masons, in his

annual address to the Masoic grand
lodge at Keokuk in July, 1909, which
address will be found on page Is Of
the proceedings of 1909 of the most
worshipful United Grand Lodge Of
Iowa, A. f. & A. NJ.
On the other hand, .Attrney Gem
eral George Cosson, who is also q
candidate for nomination for gov-
ernor, has been the tried and true
friend of the writer since twenty
years ago, when we both were poor
students working our way through
the state university at the same time.
Since that time as county attorney,
state senator and attorney general
Geo. Cosson has been often tried and
has never denied his assistance to
the cause Of the poor and downtrod-
den, and is at the present time =
member and an officer of the Dos
Moines branch of the National Assoc
citation for the Advancement of Col
ored People, Of which the writer n
the president, from which it is, evil
dent that ne is not ashamed to let it
be known that he is the friend Of
our people as well.
Hence while have no malice to-
ward Lieut.. Gov. Harding, nor
either Of the other candidates for
governor, Tor some of them are my
personal friends, yet judging from
my personal knowledge of his past
record and attitude toward our peo-
pie I feel that Attorney General
George Cosson should receive the sup
port Of every Negro voter in Iowa
who desires to prove his loyalty to
one who is known to be his tried and
true friend.

The friends of Hon. r. A. Hassel-
quist of Charlton are actively press
ing his name for the office of secre-
tary of state. The Office is one of
the most important. Aside from the
extensive duties devolving on that
fmctionary in the office itself, it is
OF great importance in the fact that
its incumbent is a member of the
executive council, a body to which
every session of the general assem-
bly, brings enlarged duty. Mr.. Has
selquist has had eight years of legis-
lative experience, having been four
years member of each house in the
general assembly. Most of the time

they regarded as symbol Of health.
A red five pointed star appears on
each package of Chamberlain's Tab
let's, and still fulfill its ancient mis-
sion as symbol Of health. If you
are troubled with indigestion, bilious
ness or constipation, get package Of
these tablets from your druggist. You
will be surprised at the quick relief
which they afford. Obtainable every
where.
The bystander. [volume] (Des Moines, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1916-05-26

he was chairman Of the important
committee on highways. 1t was he
that got through the general assem-.
bly, the law that requires the boards
Of supervisors to levy tax of one
mill for the purpose of establishing
county road fund. Mr.. Hasselquist
was an attentive member Of the leg
islature, having an eye to what was
going on constantly. His three elec-
tons show that the people had COM
plete confidence in the man. If the
party should choose to prefer him for
the secreraryship, he may be expect
ed to do his full duty as a public Of
fetal.
He is a good friend of the colored
people.

and although have used a great
number of remedies recommended for
this complaint, Chamberlain's Tablets

elective office in his life and by vir-
tue of his age, ripe experience and
good judgment he would make an
ideal sheriff. His many friends feel
since he did not receive the election
as commissioner by so few votes,
that he is entitled to some consider
alton by voters of this cornty.
Therefore they urge upon every re-
publican voter to support Mr.. Con-
roy, as they feel he would make
good man for the said office,
