His ability nnd peed Judgment are household words In southwestern Iowa anil It is n good sign when the nearer a mnn'si home you got the better opinion people have of his honesty and ability. "Stono lias the gift of nersonnl popularity. Ho never scorns to seek It , but bo li u man whom pcoplo Instinctively lllto nnd trnst. lie never wantonly wounds or Insults any ona , ho rarely makes an enemy : ho is , though an intense republican , popular with the democracy and always runs ahead of his ticket.

His locution ought to bo a potent factor in Stouo's favor. Mr. Stone has In a hlr.li de gree the record , tbo qualifications anil the character for this great position. Ho Is young , able-bodied ami ablu-hcailcd. Ho lias an excellent record as a soldier iu the Fifteenth Iowa , known as the Crocker bri gade fighting for bis country when n mcro boy ; as a citizen In his relations to his fellow men ; ns a business man In his connection with practical affairs ; and as an officer performing his public duties.

Ho is a skillful and well In formed horticulturist , an nblo and experi enced lawyer , a wide-minded and well- equipped public man , u thinker , an orator , a sound reasoner and a debater of the llrst class , lie would make a great campaign. As a speaker ho is candid , sincere and car- nest , as bo is in character us a man. Much has been said about a man to debate with Boies. Bright talk , intense oratory -find Invect ive arc not the weapons with which to over throw Bolos. Ho must bo met In the Held ol fact and argument. A candid , earnest speaker of wide knowledge : ind keen powers of analysis is needed to meet thu smiling governor. I'ructlcnl In Kvorytliln- . "But there is another and most Important factor In Mr. Stone's favor. Ho is , with nl' his general knowledge and professiona learning , n thoroughly practical man. Ten years ago no conceived uu enter prise that will be an honor to the state and a prida of its citizens. In the execution of bis colossal project. I am Informed , bo bus planted more than 100,000 apple trees , To.OOO grape vines on a largo tract of timber land adjoining Glenwood which ho "Cleared for-that purpose.

In u 'very few yours a moderate return on bis orchard will bo 500,000 to 1,000,000 bushels of apples. Think of tbo labor it will require- harvest this crop. Thus the interests of property and the interests of labor would bo safe as far as bo can protect them. I am informed that this Is ono of the largest , If not the largest , apple orchard in the world. There Is not an acre of land in western Iowa , perhaps oven in the state , that has not been made moro valuable by this gigantic work. His sagacity and en ergy have not only done great things for himself financially , but also for the commun ity at largo. v "Our pcoplo are for him because ho Is a man of largo capabilities , of wide attain ment nnd of solid and loyal character.

An investigation followed , and it was found that Moult/ bad undertaken tbo work of installation at tbo fallen on a contract for 88,000 francs , all of which sum had been paid him by the confederation. Mcnit'/ went to Paris and contracted with Brouil to do the work for 3(1,000 ( , francs. Tlio Parisian contractor came to Chicago and completed tbo Swiss aeetions with materials inferior to those which Menit/'a contract with the con federation called for.
