TITS CAMPAIGN IN IOWA.
Within six weeks the contest now
waging in Iowa will culminate in the
election. For an ofd' year the Iowa campaign -
paign has evolved nearer red heat than
any political contest within the memory
of time oldest inhabitant. Ten years ago
time Ilawkoyo state was badly shako11 up
by the granger movement , but at no
pet iod since 1873 have the people of Iowa
boon agitated so much over the outcome
of an impending election ,
The overshadowing issue this year is
prolmibition , and the most intense interest
centers in the election of Limo legialaturo.
Ostensibly the supreme judge is time prin.
cipal figure in the campaign , but inn
reality the law makers are the bone of
contention.
The prohibitionists have mounted time
republican chariot which tlmey are driving
at a reckless taco over very dangerous
ground. AL the omtaot of the cmmpaign
time election of asuprenio judge presented
the prolIibitiomi issue in its mimost direct
form , Time prohibition nntotdmont sub.

in thu legislative record that should attest
oho passage of time nmeudment in duo

At once the cry was raised that thu
amendtuomt was "not dead , but sleep-
uthm , " and that by changes in thu per-
sommel of the court , which could bt
offuctud in Limo eections thus year and
iiext , the liostilo decision might ho re

popular mimajority of 29,97'4 in favor of
the amendment trust be accepted as "thu
verdict of the people , " and was , it is
said , only restrained from adopting a
uioro pointed rebuke of the court's du-
cismon. Judge Day's ' term expires this
year , amid the convention nouniuated as
his successor Judge Joseph It , Reed ( a
district judge ) , of Council Blufid. At
once time trouble began. Prouiinunt. republicans -
publicans , among whom ox Gov. Kirk-
wood may ho named as most prouninunt ,
declared that the defeat of Day was an
assault upon the independence of the
highest court , and that time action of time
comivautiom must mid should bo rebuked.
Time 1Vutorloo protest , pronnulgatod by
the indopondoit republicans , became a
lirubramid that for n timu threatened to

Lost declares that tlu + convomtimi had
"struck down am able and comisciuutious
judge for the faithful discharge of his
duty , " and , futther , that the whole
policy of prohibition is intolerant , ium
warrnmited , and a substitution of legal
coercion for those great moral focca
on which Limo cause of true tempurancu
must rely. How extensively this feeling
runs through republican ranks in the
state it will be impossible to tell till the
returns come in , but the fooling is known
