Candidate before the Republican primary for a second term as Representative. He not only is in favor of whatever is best for Iowa and Cass county, but has the habit of succeeding. He gets things done. He has been a success in whatever he has undertaken. He has the confidence of his home people as shown by the splendid vote he received two years ago both at the primary and election, in his home townships. Almost unanimous in Victoria and almost as strong in Massena and Edna. He is a booster and has given enthusiastically of his time and money for every home enterprise. Witness the Massena Fair which he has served continually and without pay. Although a first termer, he was a leader in the last legislature and will be chairman of appropriations, the second in importance of the house committees, if reelected. His works counts. Robert Henderson named him publicly in the newspapers as one of three men to whom he most owed his reelection as state printer. He was Henderson's manager in the House. Custom has established the unwritten law that no republican shall have opposition for a second term within his own party.
