Page four of the July 3, 1903, edition of the Des Moines Daily Capital. Several sections on this page are emphasized, including an article titled “Why These Attacks Upon Cousins?,” another titled “The Head Liners Have Their Ideas,” and a brief poem. The first of these discusses the difference in treatment given to Iowa Governor Albert Baird Cummins and others who have expressed their opinions about the tariff, and the treatment given to Robert G. Cousins when he did the same. The second compares the different ways that headlines across the country have described the Iowa Republican Convention. The circled poem declares that the “Iowa Idea” is dead and should be buried.
