Iowa Senator Holds Republican Meetings in Indiana Cities.

1 Senator Cummins, of lowa, has begun a five days’ campaign in Indiana in. the interest of Senator Albert J. Beveridge. At Mishawaka Monday night, Senator Ciimmins said: “I have come into this Indiana campaign to do what I can and all that 1 can on behalf of Albert J. Beveridge. He Is my associate in the Senate of the United States. His deep learning, comprehensive thought and unsurpassed eloquence combine to make him a most conspicuous figure in that body. But it is not his learning or his eloquence that has drawn me into this struggle. He is my friend and his lovable character awakens my keenest interest in his welfare. Yet it is not because of any affection that I entertain for him that I am here taking part in a battle that is to determine his political future. -. “I am here because Albert J. Beveridge is a patriotic public servant, because he is a valiant fighter for just laws, because Albert J. Beveridge has a mind that conceives prophetic vision, which foresees that which should be and possesses a noble heart and an honest will that sends him straight to the mark.

“Albert J. Beveridge has full consciousness of the sacredness of private property and knows that its inviolability must be upheld wherever civilization is to prevail,'but he also feels the deep conviction that wherever the rights of man and the rights of property are issue, man is to be considered first and property afterward. “Albert J. Beveridge hates wrong, a very common feeling, I hope, among public men, and he is always fighting it, a practice, I am sorry to say, that is not so self-evident in public life. He is a potent force in the mighty movement that is now sweeping the length and breadth of our land for a government filled with a renewed sense of faithfulness and watchful sympathy toward the interests of the people. “These, then, are the reasons that have brought me to your state. The thoughtful men and women of lowa are just as much interested in Senator Beveridge’s re-election as are the men and women of Indiana. The legislature of the state must give him hiß commission, and when it is given, Maine and lowa and California and all the commonwealths will share with you in the immense benefits of his public service.” .
