Mrs. Brice had made Columbia

was a devoted member of the AS

church and of several social and
patriotic organizations. She was
the daughter of John Calvin and

Independence, and her mothers

Mrs. Brice had an alert mind,

life's difficulties with enthusiastic

HELD BY DICKINSON

year intervals up to 1880, when
he shifted his scene of activity
from the lower house to the SEN
ate. After a memorable campaign
fight in which he was opposed by
the late John Hammill, then just
finishing six years as governor OF
Iowa, Dickinson received the NOM
inaiton, at that time equivalent to
election.
Within the past four years his
stand on national questions has
not always been universally APP
plauded by Iowans. He opposed
the AAA from it's inception, al
though Iowa received benefits es-
timated at $690,000,000 from the
law. His views on the tariff also
have been denounced bitterly in
his native state. He was a firm
advocate of the Hawley-Smoot
traiff, which many Iowans disap-
proved.
A bitter opponent of the Roose-
welt administration, Sen. Dickin-
son stumped throughout the Mid
die West during 1885 and attack
ed the New Deal policies.
Following this tour he was
mentioned as a presidential posi-,
bility. He was ranked among hall
a dozen Republicans considered to
| he elipible for the nomination.
HAS SCHOLASTIC BENT
Dickinson followed the time
honored school book history of 8
public man. His farm origin, his
scholastic bent, his interest in
history, and world problems-al
fitted into the scheme.
He often said he was not inter
ested in golf, fishing or other
sports, and had never read q
novel or magazine story, prefer.
ring to pore through volumes OF
history, economics and genealogi,
cal lines.
When a boy on the Iowa farm
owned by his father, he practiceo
oratory behind the barn.
That training stood him in good
stead, for Dickinson has spent
most of his life in the political
arena. At So he is distinguished
appearing man who has the looks
| of being in his middle-forties, al
though his hair is almost snow
white, it is very thick.
Dickinson is a finished speaker,
whose forensic gifts won him the
| position of G. o. P. keynoter In
1882, when he was an ardent sup
! porter of Herbert Hoover.
