lievts Nj Marsh was in Des MOines
Tuesday attending hearing before The

Mr.. Marsh says there are :,lany such
young democrats in Iowa who have
returned with high honors for deeds
Of valor and he thinks the whole PARTY
ticket in this state should be made Up
OF such men.
The democratic party is in a 20
sition TO nominate such men whereas
the republicans are not" said Nj
Marsh yesterday. The democrats do
not have party leaders looking for pub
lie office as DO the republicans. The
parry has been SO long out of power in
this state that its workers have never
expected much in the way OF state Of
fees.
The republican party. however, IS
indebted TO its leaders and 20 tho men
who have conducted its campaigns eLd
brought victory to the party. Hence
II is expected that these leaders mist
be rewarded by election 10 office. All
OF the prominent republicans now he
ing talked o: FOR governor have a rec
ord for party service. The same is true
Of those being talked OF for several OF
the other offices.
The democrats are free from this
and can therefore put up a state ticket

won honors on foreign battle fields in
the world war"

is not as dangerous as black stem rust
