Speech to a Large The active work of a very quiet cam in Lyon county was closed last Friday by Cummins and all that remains is for republicans to get out their have it counted and an the Cummins touched the of the entire matter when he urged republicans to give up their work long enough to cast a ballot next and the necessity of such urging is apparent when it is told that men failed to vote last year who voted in 18W1 and If these men were disfranchised by law as is done in the south by the negro the de nunciation would be long and but these same men hold the privilege very lightly when the right is given them to express an untrammeled opinion at the It is to be hoped that Lyon coun ty voters will not be so derelict in their duty as the men in the state were gen last Local republicans made ready for the reception of the governor by decorating house with pictures of past A car riage waited at the train and Cum mins was taken immediately to the place of speaking where a crowd which filled the opera house greeted The meeting was called to order by Chair man Roach and after a piece by the band Miss Ethel Coonrod favored the audience with the Holy City accom by the The

attention to the fact that while two years ago democrats talked long and loud of state issues this year all that has been done in this line was the compilation and circula tion of a pamphlet filled with misstate ments by men who failed to father the fabrications they He told of the difference between the acts of the executive council and that of the county assessors and made it very clear that the latter fixed the value of real estate in while the former pass upon the valuation of railroad property Figures were given showing an increased valuation of railroads in Iowa of since the election of making the assessable pro perty of railway greater than it was when the present governor was inducted into The figures were given to show that pledges made to the people had been The speaker then declared that the present is one of the strangest cam ever waged even by the demo crats because they are declaring for free trade in the face of the fact that every civilized nation with the ex ception of England has abandoned the while England is beginning to tight the folly of free In a few years the democratic party of the United States will be the only party in the civ world advocating such an anti but the latter will not learn even from past experience that free trade laws have brought ruin and disaster whenever A tariff for revenue only means a levying of duties on those articles
