GOyERNOR-ELECT HARDING.
TSioux CITY Journal


The Journal is not disposed TO do
any gloating over the election OF
William l.. Harding as governor of
iowa. After his remarkable victory
in the primary this newspaper never
entertained a doubt of his election by
a handsome majority. Nothing 10 TO
be gained by rubbing salt on the sore
spots accumulated by the losers in the
course of their ultra strenuous en-
beavers. There are q fey things that
ought to be said In good temper, how
ever, to complete the record of what
probably will be remembered as the
least edifying political campaign re-
corded in Iowa's political history.
The election Of Har riding by an over
whelming vote is another exempiifca-
ton Of Iowa reliance in the repuhh-
can party and another proof Of the
ability Of the Iowa electorate to dis
criminate between real and false is
sues. The Sioux City candidate Of
fered to the public a better promise OF
satisfactory service than any man who
has come TO the front in state politics
IN recent years. he, was made the
objective OF a series of assaults that
GStaDllSnPO d new Sldtc iNNo'' A"'
loliticaI pusillanimity. Some OF the
most guileless of the good, people OF
iowa were fooled by the misrepre-
sentation brought into play in the alb
rsence of READ argument against Mr.:
Iarding's election. The fact that he
mas been elected by the largest ma
jority ever given an Iowa candidate
fer a state office shows how reaction
sry. in the main. was the effect OF the
palpably unfair tactics OF the opposi-
ton.
The tremendous vote for Harding in
all sections Of the state is in part
testimonial to the personal and poiiti-
cal popularity of Sioux City's favorite
son. In part it is rebuke to the little
clique of politicians that organized the
tight against him, and warning tina,
Iowa wants no more Of this yellow
campaigning. There, is very little
real danger that It will soon be re-
peated on the same scale.
To those who remain honestly
doubtful of the capacity of the COVER
rcr-elect for able and conscientious
public service the Journal has this
word of advice to offer: Watch the
smoke Of the next governor of Iowa!

THE VETS TOOK NO CHANCES.
burlington Gazette.l

For the first time in many years
every candidate on the democratic
county ticket with one possible ex-
ception has been defeated. They were
not defeated because they were less
popular than their opponents or, to
those who were seeking reelection, as
rebuke for any duty left unper-
formed It was admitted by all that
they were good and capable men and
worthy of the favor of the voters. The
defeat of the county ticket was
brought about by democratic voters
who permitted themselves to be de-
ceived by issues foreign to county 'af-
fairs. Alleged wet" democrats in
their eagerness to assist in the cleo
ton of Mr.. Harding and make no mis-
take about 1t. forgot their friends
the county ticket and pulled the lever
tor a straight republican vote. The
Gazette can assure them that Mr.
