prayed of nights. That is the record
Contrast it with Cosson's record.

When the bill was up to require pub
lication Of notice before beginning
the canvass for saloon petition Hard
ing voted no. Why not publication!
Publication gave notice to the oppo-
nents of the saloons and prevented a
still nunt saloon canvass. Contrast
this with Cosson's record. Harding was
absent or not voting" when the bill
was up to make selling, procuring or
giving liquor to drunlards and min
ors. Harding voted yes on Moore's
local option bill. Harding voted against
the law which reduced the hours sa-
looms might remain open in Iowa. Con-
trast that with Cosson's record.
Harding voted mo" on the Meredith
joint resolution to submit the prohibi-
tory amendment.
Another comparison of the two men
is not amiss: Cosson has always been
on the right side Of law, never its OPP
ponent and assassin. AS a lawyer Co.'S
son has sought the side of law en-
forcement. 1t was Cosson who came
to the rescue of Sioux City at the call
OF decency, within the past year and as
defender of the criminal statutes prose-
cuted and sent to prison the gang Of
gunner and underworld thugs that had
terrorized Sioux City. He did it over
the most desperate efforts of their paid
and purchased advocate--W. L. Hard
ing, candidate for the governorship of
this state. Harding is the mainstay
and dependence of the criminal class of
Sioux City, as a criminal lawyer. Is it
possible that years of practice of this
sort fit man for governor Of Iowa?
The Sioux City Tribune, the newspaper
that backed up the prosecution of Gun
man Ford and his gang and the re-
lice who was allied with vice and
crime, evidently believes not for it is
opposing Harding and supporting Cos
son and the statutes. What Is to be
expected Of special agents appointed
by Harding? If every man whose hand
is against the law votes for Harding
in Sioux City and over the state can
Governor Harding" Of Des Moines,
lose sight Of the friends and supporters
of Bill Harding" of Sioux City?
Those who approve the prohibitory
law and who imagine that it is all over
should inform themselves. The amend
ment must pass the lext legislature be-
fore the people vote on it The influ-
ence Of a governor upon a legislature
is as great as that of the president
Of the United States over congress- Are
they willing to put Harding with his
record in a position where the influ-
ence he has welded as his record
shows can be used to defeat the amend
ment inthe house OF it's friends7

CHAMPION DOUBlE-cROSSER.

Harding, the candidate of the vets,
writes to c. D. Cass, interurban mag
nate of Waterloo as to good roads tina;
we should "let the people of a given
locality vote on the proposition o.
taxes or bonds
In the Ottumwa Courier for southern
Iowa consumption he said, i am OPP
posing a proposed issue of one hundred
million dollars in bonds to pave the
highways of the state"
In his paid advertisement in the
Harlan Republican for consumption in
a county which has no gravel he said,
Harding opposes government of your
local affairs by commission you can
ret reach" meaning ti:c state highway
commission. '.Harding's fight is to
keep the pork barrel out of the road
making business"
Nobody having proposed a bond is
sue of any kind for paved roads and
every one of the four republican can
didates having declared for the right
CT the voters to authorize their own
bonds for their own kind of roads and
local option on bond issues being all
that the road boosters are asking l.
becomes apparent that Mr.. Harding is
the champion double crosser of Iowa
politics. He holds the road booster in
the towns who is wet and saves the
farmer who is dry, but who is scared
by this talk of paved roads. The real
issue of law enforcement is concealed
by noise about things that do not
exist. Harding will get thousands Of
dry votes for fighting that which he
hims elf has proposed.

hands and lodge it in the hands of the

hands and lodge 1t in the hands Of the
people.
It has also been suggested that law
be passed which will permit the forma-
ton of road districts after the manner
plan. the people of the district might
organize for road improvements, and
by a vote of those interested might in
cur bonded Indebtedness for this pur-
pose. If the people of county or OF
a district are ready for sufaced roads,
and are willing to vote bonds upon
themselves for the purpose of building
them-surely they should be given the
right to do 1t.
The governor Of the state would play
a very small part in any Of these mat
ters They would be dealt with by the
members OF the legislature. The gov
ernor might recommend in his mes
sage such plans as seemed best to
him, but this recommendation would
have no binding force upon the legis-
lature. He could Of course exercise his
personal influence with the various
members of the legislature, and this
might be large or small, depending on
how well the governor may stand with
the members, So far as his official
acts are concerned, however, they
would be confined to recommendations
in the form of messages to the !egisla-
ture, and to signing or vetoing any
bills which might be passed.
II there are to be any changes In
our road laws, they will be made by
the legislature. The farmers OF Iowa
will best serve themselves BY. sending
to the Legislature aome good hard
headed citizens who can think clearly.
and who can be trusted to faithfully
represent their interests, not only DIN
road legislation, but in other matters
Of equal Importance.
We suspect that there Is something
behind this effort to make the road
question appear to be the one big Issue
in this primary campaign. We suggest
to our readers that they study with
some care the character. records and
affiliations of the various candidates
for the legislature. When the blare OF
a circus parade draws the people down
town, sneak thieves reap rich harvest
in the deserted homes. Many questions
of great Importance to the farmer will
be dealt with by the Iowa legislature
next winter, and every county should
be represented there by faithful, sim
cere, clean minded, clear-headed men
who will stand for a clean state and
for justice to the farmer.

Topics Of the Times

If Lawyer Harding could have In
fuenced the attorney generals Office
a few months ago.. would the Sioux
City police chief and Gunman Ford be
sharing the fruits of vice today or
busy at hard labor for the state? Now
where does the duty Of a citizen leave
off and the privilege of criminal
lawyer begin?
With all the bitter fight that has
been waged upon Cosson no man has
dared to insinuate aught against his
integrity or capacity Cosson's record
in Iowa is one that you would be glad
to have your own boy make, Mr.. Vot-
ing Citizen. And your boy and other
voting citizens boys are to grow up
in Iowa within the next few years.
The contrast between Havner and
Wilson is one that should attract at
tention. Havner declares for the en-
forcement of law from one end of Iowa
to another Wilson, so the chairman
of the Davenport republican conven-
tons said-has promised not to cross
the border of Scott county. In short
then Havner sees the law as an Iowa
law. Wilson would nuilify it in Scott
according to Reed Lanes assertion be-
fore the convention.
The saloon can come back effective
ly and profitahly enough for the brew
ers and the dealers who refuse to let
go. 1t can come back with the profits
untouched by mulct or license under
local self government" favored by a
governor who controls special agents
and an attorney general who would be
willing to stay outside the borders OF
wet towns.

Carranza is an old school Mexican
