The selection of a creditable rep

ate from Iowa is vital. First of ALL
he should be republican willing and
able to give ga reason for the hope
that is within him." He should be d
man of ability and courage, amply
able to cope with the brainy men tina:
the east keeps in the senate for a
long term Of years. He should not
only be a good debater and good
parHiamentarian but also well gro urld.
ed in a thorough knowledge of the
underlying principles of government
and familiar with the history and
traditions of our country.
A United States Senator should not
be selected because of his views on
temporary issues. The full term is
for six years. Temporary and tran
sent policies that may be disposed of
within few months are of little con-
Germ in comparison to the great
problems that are facing the re-
public. To meet the stupendous is
sues requires a mental equipoise that
is capable of grasping intricate and
complex subjects.
The people of Iowa are partners
in the most gigantic business con.
Germ in the world, the government
of the United States. To represent
the state in this stupendous enter
prise in which all of the people are
vitality interested they should seek
out the man who has the best gen
eral equipment to measure up to the
responsibilities of the position and
has the courage and forensic ability
to meet them. There is no use in
selecting Lilliputian to give battle
to a giant.

dicted today after a polictcal survey
Of the state.
Rumors of Ainsworth are gain

while nothing is being heard of his
opponent, Carlsll said.
81 have received repor,s from po-
litical friends in various sections
of the state" he said. "All Of them
predict an overwhelming victory for
Ainsworth.
Although his opponent is a can
didate for reelection, indications are
all in Ainsworth's favor He has a
huge following of military and bust
ness friends who are rallying to his
support. The feminine vote is al
most solid for Ainsworth."
Ainsworth's managers are said
to have doped the election four tc

diction today called attention to the
fact that Ainsworth set out 10 OBJ,

Former Residents Visit Here

C. C. Coutant, former editor and
proprietor of the DEBORAH Journal
about fifteen years ago, was De-
corah visitor Thursday, on business

can Type Foundry Co., of Mime
.apolis. He was accompanied by Mrs.
Coutant and their daughter, Miss
Claire. The trip was made by auto

here since leaving DEBORAH. Theif
many old friends were pleased to see
them, Miss Claire has been a pro-

C. E. PICKETT OF SENATORIAL SIZE

senate served with him when he was
in congress. While Pickett has an
enviable record as an orator, his real
power in congress was his ability as
a deba.er. He crossed swords with
some of the oldest debaters in con-
gress. The congressional record
shows a running cross fire of inter-
ruptions in all of his debates, as was
well illustrated in his great debate on
the Conservation bill, of which he was
the author; against the Hydro-Elec-
trio bill; his two speeches against
Canadian reciprocity which attracted
the appreciative attention of the
farmers of America, and his noted
speech against the Arizona constitu-
ton, which showed the most pro-
found knowledge of the fundament-
ais of government. The Ohio Consti-
tutional Convention then in session
revising the basic law of that great
commonwealth, ordered copies of this
speech sent to each member of the
convention. He is no. only hard
hitter in debate, but an eloquent
defender of the principle or right
and justice in public discussion. 1t Is
common knowledge that many
speeches purporting to have been
delivered in congress were simply
manuscript dropped in the basket
with "leave to print In his long
service in congress Mr.. Pickett did
not have to resort to this expedient
to get hearing before the Ameri-
can public.
Picket is of Senatorial size. He
is a big man mentally, and a big
man in the defense Of what he be-
lieves. He is neither a coward MOI
trimmer. He knows the people OF
Iowa and is in thorough sympathy
with their hopes and aspirations.
Mr.. Pickett would honor Iowa in the
greatest deliberaive law making
body in the world.

Miss Thressa Assem- has been a

her much pain, but we understand
she is getting along nicely, which

Eighth grade.

showed remarkable training excep-
tional for youngsters of their limited
years and experience. An unusual
thing was that none of the actors had
to be prompted but carried their parts
through without a break. That is
something which seldom occurs even
with grownups.
On the Original Orations five girls
tied for first place and it was only af-
ter getting down to the finest details,
the last deciding point being original
ity, that the decisions were made. The
$40 in gold went to Margaret Matners;
the SIS in gold to Gwendolyn Hillman
and SO in silver to Adelaide Gum.
On Pianologues, the first prize of
IS went to Annie Ashley and Melba
Hooker, the second prize of "a to
Gladys Berry and Eva Louise Williams
and the third prize of 81 to Fern

The second evening winners were as
follows: On essays the first prize of
