The Knoxville Journal argues the 1924 presidential race will not repeat the Free Silver clash of 1896. It predicts La Follette will run on a Farmer-Labor ticket rallying dissatisfied voters against Wall Street and railroads, as Bryan did against the gold standard, requiring a long, hard campaign to sway the public.
A skeptical view on farmer labor politics argues promises attract voters who then fare poorly. It notes many politicians travel widely, while real farm value hinges on efficient cultivation and operation.

The determination of Governor Nate E. Kendall to retire from active politics at the close of his present term as Governor will disappoint his thousands of loyal friends and supporters in Iowa.

The Corah Republication argues that all citizens belong to a party and should vote. It contrasts Republicans and Democrats with a third Derelict party of nonvoters, labeling them disloyal in action while claiming loyalty in thought. It stresses voting as a civic duty.
