HOOGENAKKER FOR
STATE SENATOR

We arc publishing for Mr.. Hoo
genakker this week Il clipping from
the Keokuk County News. We
are doing this because we want to
be fair to all concerned, and to give
both sides a hearing before the pub
lie. We wish to act in fairness and
without malice or prejudice leaving
the public to judge as to the merits
of the case. The clipping sent us
by Mr.. Hoogenakker follows:
H. j. Hoogenakker of Audubon,
for more than 20 years a news
paper publisher OF Iowa, is can.
didate for state senator in the
senatorial district comprising Au-
dubon, Dallas and Guthrie coun-
ties. We have known Mr. Hoo
genakker ever since he first en-
gagged in business, but it was not
until he became publisher OF the
Richland Clarion that we came to
know the real worth of the man.
He is one of the few men in pub
lie life who puts duty to others
ahead of self. For years he has
been interested in music and wher-
ever he has been located hea has
devoted much of his talent in
that direction. When he was
needed elsewhere he gladly filled
that place. We have even known
him to close his place Of business
and suspend publication of his
newspaper in order to comply with
the request of friends to sing at a
funeral. Men of his talents and
ability are useful citizens in any
community.
Few people realize the heavy
demands made upon those who are
willing to serve others, and none
have been more generous or faith
full in this respect than Mr.. Hoo
genakker. He was always deeply
interested in every movement di-
rected toward civil betterment. As
mayor of Richland he stood firmly
for the best interests of the com.
munity. Always kind, sympath-
etc and considerate he is never
theless infiexible when a question
OF right or wrong is at stake
Mr.. Hoogenakker is a man Of
high ideals and unquestioned in
tegrity. He could have been sen.
ator from the keokuk-Poweshiek
district without opp sition years
ago had he chosen to remain 8
resident of Richland Now thai
he has decided to become a can
didate for the nomination in his
home district, his friends in all part;
of Keokuk wish him success"

Abildtrup for Treasurer

j. C, Abildtrup, a farmer of
Douglas township, has announced
his candidacy for treasurer of Au-
dubon county. The fact that his
own township unanimously en-
dorsed his candidacy at its caucus
is strong factor in his favor, and
his being a farmer will work to his
advantage, as our farmers want
officials who are interested in and
understand their needs, and Mr..
Abildtrup would be qualified to
meet their requirements.

FORMER PASTOR
PRAISES H. j. MANTZ

The following article was taken
from last weeks Guthrie Center
Times and shows the high esteem
in which H. j. Mantz, candidate
for the nomination of state sena-
tor from this district, is held by a
former NJ. E. pastor of Audubon,
Rev. j. H. Freedline, who now re-
sides at Adel, Iowa:
April 81, 1920
To Whom it May Concern:
To the readers and citizens of
Guthrie County, Iowa.
Permit me to say in behalf of
Hon. HI. j. Mantz, who is candi-
date for Senator in this district; I
have known MIR. Mantz for ten
years and in these years | have
never known a cleaner man in poll
tics or out of it. He is a very ca
pable man. If one will examine his
record in the two terms that he
served his county one will find that
he has record of which any one
can be justly proud. Hon. John
w. Foster said to the writer a few
days ago 'Mr. Mantz is one of the
most capable young fellows in the
assembly. 1t would be hard to
find more competent man than
he" The writer lived with MIR.
Mantz in his home town four years
and has been in touch with affairs
in all three counties of Audubon,
Guthrie and Dallas, and this dis
trict will make no mistake in Civ
ing this man, who is every inch a
man, the largest vote ever given to
a Republican nominee at the COM
ing primary. For forty years he
has lived in the district; he served
very acceptably as County Attor-
ney; and as Mayor Of Audubon,
and is held in the very highest es-
TEEN by all who know him. The
last assembly unanimously chose
him as Speaker Pro-tem, and he is
right on the great questions of the
day.
He believes in being right anc
then going ahead He stood -four
square during the late conflict and
gave hearty support to every cause
that was presented. He merits the
support of every man and woman
who believes in better citizenship
and high ideals.
This testimony is unsolicited by
Mr.. Mantz and is given not by
hearsay, but by the very facts il
the case.
Very respectfully,
j. H. Freedline
Pastor M. e. Church, Adel, Iowa.

MINNESOTA PARTY
OF IOWA PEOPLE

The Guthrian is indebted to Mrs.
Charles Headlee of Pine River,
Minnesota, for the following clip
ping from the Pequot, Minnesota,
Review which tells OF an enjoyable
party among the Iowa colony
there:
Tuesday, April 18th. the Iowa
bunch from Audubon and Guthrie
counties gathered at the home Of
Carl Charter on Stony Brook to
remind him of his birthday by Civ
ing HIM surprise and picnic din
ner. After serving dinner the
party went to watch the men spear
fish. After an hour and half of
this sport they took home three
grain sacks of fish, which was a
new experience and quite q novelty
to the Iowa people.
Those present were MIR. and Mrs.
Otho Sebert and son, Mr.. and Mrs.
w. A. Savage and sons, MIR. and
Mrs. w. V. Hartzell and baby, Mr..
and Mrs. Kelly Davis and daugh-
ter, Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Headlee
and sons, Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Hays
and son and Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Headlee and family.
Mrs. Headlee said in her letter
that the weather was beginning to
feel little spring-like up there al
though the season has been very
backward, and not much field
work done. Guthrie Center Guth.

OUR WEATHER EYE
Wanted---A Screen

That Mr.. Hoogenakker is becom-
ing more or less wrought up over
the turn that his campaign has
taken Is apparent from his fulmi-
nation in the late issue of the Re
publican.
He should reassure himself on
one point. The Journal has no
personal ill-will for him whatever.
If he does not believe this, he has
only to remember that it took its
stand openly and squarely for Mr..
Mantz last fall To be precise, it
was during the first week in No
vember; and this was quite long
time before the incident which he
announces as the one sole cause of
the stand aforesaid. Obviously the
cause of that action could hardly
be something that was not to hap
pen for several months.
The true motive has been stated
once and is understood by Journal
readers; however, for his benefit,
it may be told again. The Journal
knew Mr.. Mantz, from his record,
to be faithful, capable and honest
public servant whose services de-
served recognition and reward;
and also it knew of the question
able scheme which was already
taking form to retire him for a
man OF quite another type.
If MIR. Hoogenakker does not be-
lieve this, he will have to hunt
some more in his wild search for
motives. May he have better luck
in the future, for he needs urgently
to find smoke screen behind
which to conceal the things that he
has been doing.
Abuse and vituperation do not
get anywhere with right-minded
people as he should know. He
may as we'll give up now as later
such cheap tactics, designed to
turn the attention of voters from
the main issues in this campaign,
for they will not work.
1t Is for him to meet the issue,
not by evasion and subterfuge, but
honestly and squarely, and to JUS
tify his record, not in part, but in
full, for there appear to be too
many things in it that people in
general do not like. The Journal
urges him to do this; and until he
does so, it respectfully refuses to
alter its stand regarding his can
didacy.

GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, Oct. 10 Southwestern
wheat growers are not receiving
the support of the banks in that
section, and as a result there were
increased wheat offerings from that
section. This affected wheat fu-
lures adversely, and the price on
the Chicago Board of Trade broke
sharply today. From the low points
of the day there were only half
hearted rallies. Local cash prices
were 8 to 6 cents lower. or about
the same as futures, with only a
moderate demand. With coarse
grains and provisions breaking
sharply. wheat had little support
except from shorts.
Corn futures felt the effect Of a
bearish condition of news. Com
mission houses started selling from
the outset, and there was little sup
port until profit-taking by shorts
and buying against the bids checked
the slump. Cash prices were cents
OFF. Despite the decline there was
only a very little export business.
Liquidation of long oats was on
in volume, and prices at the bot
tom We're in new low ground for
the crop. Near the close there was
a covering movement which gave
the market little rally.

VALLEY PEl'.OlArENHt:IsA
MEET At AAN !ACAC1O

One Of the most enthusiastic meet
ins. of Its kind was held Tuesday
evening Of this week In the town hall
at san Acacio. The object Of the
gathering was to effect the consolid-
alton Of ths various commercial
ciubs. farmers and business mems
associations and like organisations
which have for their purpose the
welfare and progress OF the San Luis
Valley.
Delegates were present as follows;
Ten from AntOntto. nine from Blan-
ca, eight from Alamosa, u like num-
her from Mont. Vista and others
from various points. The meeting
WAS opened at about eiEht-thirty.
and MIR. sylvester. Of Monte Vista
was appointed chairman. He pro-
duced resume Of the plan which
was to be discussed. and G.. A. Rob.
inson read II to the assembled dele
gates.
II appears that the plan was con-
ceived by the hustiers OF Alamosa
and Monte Vista. In the beginning
and the movement rapidly spread
to all the counties OF the San Luis
Valley west of the river. And now
| II In being put up to Costilla county.
One OF the features OF the idea
was the employing OF n good sal
aried secretary who would put In
all OF his time In forwarding the
work In hand II was proposed
that each county entering the con-
solidation be assessed pro rata as Ia
It's taxable property for the expenses
OF the organization for one year.
After n considerable discussion, the
meetings as mass adjourned for fif-
teen minutes to allow the Costilla
people present to think IL over. Mr..
Penney. of Blanca was chairman OF
this last conference, and 1t was
quickly decided that Costilla county
would do her share.
So far the organization Is tenn
porary. but two delegates to u con-
vention to be held in Antonito. April
9Th. have been appointed from each
county. and these will effect per
manent organization.
The movement is one Of the finest
ever conceived for the building VI
