PLAIN DEALER,
". r. MEAD. Editor.
THURSDAY MARCH 20. 1900.

The Republican party has never
gerrvImandered in this matter in or.
der to preserve its own perpetnity. 1t
has never been compelled to think Of
this, for until this year, the suprema-
cy Of the Republican party in the
Iowa legislature has not been men-
aced. -Senator Bailey in last weeks
Republican.
II, rs asserted. this gerrymandering
was not done to perpetuate republi-
can rule i'm Iowa. it must have been
from pure devilishness. But we
think Senator Bailey is mistaken, for
in 1874 the State Legislature was SO
close that the Speaker, as in 1890,
was elected as the result OF compro-
mise. The organization OF 10 repub-
lican districts from counties having
less than the constitutional quota,
and whose aggregate population was
only 1850 an average OF 1925 to the
district. whilst five democratic dis
tricts were formed from five counties
with an aggregate population Of 154,-
ZOE, an average to each district OF 3d.
$40. speaks with emphasis against the
Senator'S unsupported statement.
With the farmers and laboring men
of the country, it is not material
whether the gerrymander Of dis
trict is made by one political party OF
another. the object is to repress the
expression Of the people at the ballot
box in the effort to redress their
wrongs. Hence the public interest is
served when the practice is rebuked
and oyerthrOWn.

Senator Vance has introduced a
bill that discounts Windows silver
bill largely. The scheme Is to have
government warehouses in every
county producing $500, 100 worth Of
products, where farmers can deliver
to government agent their crops,
receiving 80 per cent Of their value in
treasury notes. Senator Vance is
looking to the interest and welfare Of
the farmers, but has overlooked an
important matter in his bill. To
round up things, it ought to provide
for paying the farmer interest on the
entire value Of his crops for a series
Of years. one year Of which should be
paid in advance in gold coin, as in
case of the national bankers, ..on de-
post of securities in exchange for
currency.

HOWARD COUNTY DIsGRACED.

The bill introduced by Representa-
tive Cutting might be an appropriate
measure for the Car OF Russia or for
Bismarck. but has no place in the
Republic of the United States. Since
the days of John Adams, no such
measure has found a place upon the
statute books Of this country, and no
such law will be tolerated in Iowa.
We hardly feel like charging the
paternity Of the bill upon Mr.. Cut
ting, because we cannot convince
ourself TINT he is either fool or knave
enough to draft such an infamous
bill. 1t is probably the work OF some
fool friend, and Cutting has foolishly
introduced the bill.
The Dubuque Herald thus conn.,
ments on this most remarkable pro-
duction:
One Of the most remarkable bills
vet presented for the consideration
Of the legislature is that OF Mr.. Cut
ting, which provides that any editor
or publisher of any newspaper or
magazine. who shall print anything
derOgatory to the character or mot
ives of individuals. shall publish in
the following issue statement made
by the person aggrieved, il furnished
within forty EIGHT hours prior to the
regular date of the next issue, nor
shall any editor print anything detri-
mental TO a public officer in the last
issue OF his paper or magazine before
election. Any person violating the
provisions of the act shall be fined
800 or imprisoned for 80 days.
Some newspaper has probably been
saying things about Mr.. Cutting that
have touched a tender spot. His bill
is quite ridiculous. No reputable pub
Usher would deny any man who
thought lie had been aggrieved the
right to reply in suitable terms and
length. But this bill. il made q law,
would hand the whole paper over to
the individual. He could fill the pa
per up with his statement, and write
It in any kind Of terms This is re-
striction of the press that won't do in
this age.
In the editorial correspondence OF
the Elkader Register from Des Moines
our representative comes in with his
little legal wisdom for this criticism
One of those rare specimens which
bob up serenely in every Legislative
body, with public bills to right priv
ate wrongs, is a member of the Iowa
house, Chas. ID. Cutting by name and
he halls from Howard county. Al
some time in his career Mr.. Cutting
has evidently been written up by the
newspapers, to his annoyance, ant
he now wastes valuable time anl
much good ink and paper in intro
ducing bill which provides tina,
when paper shall print anything de
rogatory to the character or motives
of any person, the one aggrieved ma,
write statement Of the case which
the newspaper shall be obliged Il
print in its next issue preceding an.
general election" Mr.. Cutting ma,
be very able man, but such bills q
this do not 60 very far in causing
people to think highly of his abilities
Our present libel laws are sufficient,
strong to right acts of premeditate,
injustice done by any newspaper
and all papers are willing to cOrrec
any mis-statements they may inno
Gently make.

TO TAX MORTGAGES,

Representative Dayton, OF ALBANIA
kee, has introduced bill whose prin-
ciple should be incorporated into
law. Mr.. Ball has introduced bill
intended to have the same effect, but
we like Mr.. Dayton's bill best. Their
main features may be found below:
Mr.. Dayton's bill to taA lion holders
on real estate reads:
Sec. /. That section No. 500 of the
code of 1871 be amended as follows:
By striking out from the twelfth line
OF said section the words, land taxed
to-" contained in said line, and by
adding TO said section the following
paragraph: provided that the mort
gagor may make a written statement
duly verified. to the assessor, OF the
exact amount of indebtedness secured
upon the real estate owned by him,
naming the creditor, and giving the
particular description Of the real es-
tate incumbered, and that the assess
or shall thereupon value the interest
of the lien holder in such real estate,
and that such interest be listed and
taxed to the owner of such lien."
Mr.. Balls bill, having the same OBJ
ject, provides:
That all mortgages on real estate il
the state of Iowa, executed after the
taking effect of this act, shall be de
clared to be real estate and shall bt
assessed at the same rate and upoI
the same per cent of value Us that a,
which other real estate is assessed
And the assessor shall list to til.
mortgage the proportion Of the tn,
that the value Of the mortgage sus
tains to the value Of the real estate
mortgaged. And il more than on
mortgage be given on the same prop
erty, the tax shall be divided between
the parties in proportion to the rea
value OF the interest held by each
The tax OF both mortgagor and mort
gage shall be lien on the propert,
mortgaged, and may be paid by eithe
party and upon payment OF the sam'
the treasurer shall issue to the part.

paid, which shall bear interest at thu
same rate as the mortgage and be .

the tax is paid, and ii issued to tn,

me We millionaires who are laden with
gold and | will give you rest" His
likeness would hang In the rogue's
gallery and His name would be q
synonym OF dishonesty. But he did
not. He rebuked the rich. He de-
nounced usnry, He scourged the
THE yes from the temple ard asked
all who LABOR to come to Him.
The precepts Of the Carpenters Son
are whitening rebuke to the egal-
lied oppression Of labor and should
assert power over the hearts and
minds Of men to stay the hand Of this
social robber. The chorus Of Bethle-
hem, peace on earth and good will
toward men" should receive an in
depreciation as broad as human in
tercourse. 1t is the keynote to the
ideal development Of the race, the
grandest philosophy Of human life.
The vibrations Of that chorus dis
persed themselves into the song and
chro nicle OF nations, and all subse-
quent manifestations Of human SYM
pathy, in charity or philanthropy
are but the modulation of it's rythn.
They have flowed along the surg
ing current Of humanity, cooling av-
arice and healing the selfish passions
of the human heart. They come to
US today after two thousand years
sweeter than the strains ef an Eolian
harp and grander than the chorus OF
the morning stars. Their spirit tells
us that Millionaire Scott has no right
to feast while his poor hired coal
miners ut Braidwood suffer and '7ie
for want of food. It tells us that
legalized robbery is worse than blood
shed and poverty and hungeris worse
than war. 1t commands hospitals
for the sick and alJnshouses for the
destitute. 1t brands monopoly as ex-
tortion and oppression as crime. It
demands schools for children and
colleges for science. 1t adlnonishes
all those in the triple chain Of charity
love and law. And when it's teach
ings attain their destined power, So
ciety will not offer the manhood and
the souls of thousands on the altar Of
greed, that one man may grow
hanghty and revel in his millions
Humanity will be spared, the walls
Of the hungry in land Of plenty and
the tears OF the homeless amid pal
aces of wealth. J. H. SOVEREIGN,
State Master Workman.
