still think that they can manage to

pleasure and interest there may be in
reading of the doings, important OF

of the injury done by the frost. I'm
doubtedly a large portion of the late

frost was severcst, is injured more OF
less. But the greater portion of the
grain im Pembina county was either
ripe or in the shock, and hence not
injured by the frost.

The delegates purporting to represent
the democratic party of Iowa met the
other day and promulgated a platform.
The convention was as representative a
body as any party convention, for none
of them fairly and correctly represent the
masses Of the party. Party conventions
represent the politicians, wire-pullers and
schemers Of the party. The masses do
not attend the meetings to appoint dele
gates to conventions The politicians do
that and appoint delegates from among
their own number. There is nothing
more deiusive than platform promul.
gated by q party convention. 1t is all
things to all men. 1t is one of the things
in which the art of using words to coll
ceal thought is reduced to science.
One of the declarations of this platform
is: "Wc declare in favor of the repeal
Of the prohibitory liquor law of the state
of Iowa as unjust and hostile to temper
ancc." None but political convention
would dare challenge the ridicule of the
public by sucll al absurd proposition.
That the delegates favor the repeal of the
prohibitory law is perhaps an honest dec
laraticn, but the reason assigned for 1t in
the latter part Of the sentence is little
too much for credulity that has been cul-
tlvated up to the pcint Of distinguishing
between fact and fallacy. The antitl,csis
of this proposition would be that law
encouraging and fostering the liquor traf-
fic would be just and friendly to temper
anee. The one proposition is just as log
ical, or rather. illogical, as the other.
1t is carrying jug of whisky on one
shoulder and bucket Of water OH the
other. 1t is an effort to reconcile and
bring into the same line antagonistic cle-
ments of the party. 1t courts the favor
of those who from mcrcenary motives are
in favor Of re-opcning the gates Of the
liquor traffic in that state for the money
they can make out oft, and of those who
are opposcdt to the liquor traffic, by telling
them that the prohibitory law is subvcr-
slve of and opposed to the object sought
to be gained by it. The platform then
declares in favor of license law of $3.50
with power to increase to 81 900 as may
be deemed best for the public interests in
the various localities of the state as cx-
pressed by the legally constituted author
tiles of such location" This proposition
is that the convention favored prolibi-
ton to the extent of the minimum tax of
$3.50 or the maximum ofsl 600, as the
people may decide within these extremes
but the people of that state have already
decided twice at the polls in favor of abb
solute prohibition. The democracy of
Iowa are raking up the bones of q dead
issue.-Jamestown Alert
