Iowa Of Age.

An exchange from across the Mississ-
ippi says that Iowa reached, OH the 18th
Of December, its twenty-iirst birthday
and adds:
'.Its infancy was very creditablc. In
its youth it had won great renown for
its yalor in arms, and its fidelity to the
cruise Of freedom. Units manhood, while
it retains these good qualities, it will
doubtless become noted also for its Inn
mense agricultural products, and its de-
voton to the cause of education, and al
that can elevate humanity ~ fz#~
This is not flattery but simple justice.
Tho neaning of the Indian word sIowa"
as given BY Larnnlan is ",S,ccpy ones,'
but the popular name 'Hawkeye State"
is far more appropriate. There is in fact
no State in the Union whose people are
more thoroughly wide awake, and which
gives promiscsof reaching nobler results
Already far advanced In all that consti-
tutes national prosperity, Iowa has only
fairly commenced realizing the promise
of its youth. Illinois, having been adj
United into the UAion on the Sd of De-
ccmbcr, 1915, lacks only one day of be-
ing forty eight years and one month old
and is therefore comparatively an old
State, but when itbecame Of age, which
was in 1889, its population and wealth
were far behind those Of Iowa at the
present time, SO that We can not put on
airs @fsss# ~g
The areas of tho two States arc very
nearly tho same, that of Illinois being
IS, 400 square miles, and that OF Iowa
being 5,045. The two states are much
alike in the value, too, OF their natuarl
resources. There is more waste land in
this State than in that, and we are not

A iate correspondent OF the New York
World has farnished the readers of that
journal with some graphic remarks upon
the genius, 10 strategy and military re-
sources. OF Stonewall jackson. We make
few interesting extracts: -
Jsetsons military movements were al
ways based upon close calculation, and
he was eertainly not wanting,in in foresight
and caution. He seems to have known
perfectly well what It was in his power to
achieve. and as thoroughly what was be-
yond his strength. He risked much, upon
many occasions. but appears to have been
justified In his calculations Of the ultimate
result. Il
Il will be objected TO him by military
men, that he hazarded too much at times,
and vas only s1tricated by good fortune.--
There appears to be come justice In this !;

about eighteen or twenty months ago, IN the
