IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Cedar Rapids Gazette: Iowa should create
two more monument commissions for the
purpose OF giving employment to the rest Of
the authorities on patriotism and propriety.
Des Mones Leader: The proposition that
the state of Iowa shall erect a memorial to
house the state historical collection ard
things of similar nature has many friends
1t would have more IL there was not fear
that wise legislature would locate the build
ing in some place where it would be a con-
tinual reminder of what might have been.
Sioux City Journal: 1t seems that ex-Gov-
ernor Boies is to go on the stump for the
democrats This Is as II should be. He is
needed. He will have an opportunity to di-
late on the proposition which he so positively
advanced in 1892. to the effect that demo-
cratic tariff reform would add 80 cents a
bushel to the price Of wheat and is cents
bushel to the price Of corn. The market
quotations suggest the timeliness of such an
elucidation.
Sioux City Times: The late General Ely
Samuel Parker, chief Of the Senecas and king
OF the Six Nations, was once a resident of
Iowa, having resided In Dubuque in 1856 and
1857, when he held the position of superin-
tendent OF construction of the government
custom house there. His close relationship
to General Grant In military and civil life
arose from the fact that he had been a resi-
dent Of Galena while General Grant lived
there and the latter was great admirer OF
the Indian.
Des Mones Leader The official announce
ment OF the result of the census of Des
Moines was pade for the first time yesterday.
II places tho city's population at 5G,1lO. Des
Moines is entitlfd to fair count The proof
Is complete that the old one is far from this
The system Of taking the population has been
bad and there Is every evidence in addition to
this that the work has not been done care
fully or thoroughly. In fact, the result is
due to this coordination of unfortunate meth.
ods and iTpmpetent management. The city
would be very much better off without any
census report than to have the present one
made official and published broadcast. Buf
there must be report; let 1t be as near cor
rect possible.

The present system of street cleaning
is much more desirable at this time
than the contract system. 1t gives en-
ployment to a greater number of men
at higher wages, while the city saves
money and the people are satisfied
with the quality of work DONE Under
such conditions no member of the
council would dare vote to again put
the work under contract If he cares to
face his constituency again.

pARLJAMENT PROROGUED.

The British Parliament has been pro-
rogued to November IS and in the
meantime the government will settle
upon its policy and prepare the meas
'ures necessary to carry it out. The
brief session just closed has been of
much interest. The party in power al
though having great majority in the
Commons, has evaded the responsibility
Of dealing with public questions of su-
preme Importance, being content with
simply putting money into the public
purse. AS to the liberal opposition 1t
has apparently almost ceased to exist
as an organized body and is said to be
honeycombed with intrigue. All through
the session the leaders have shown in
difference to what was going on and
much Of the time the seats of the lib
spondent said of the proceedings in the
Commons that there was nothing in them
that impressed the impartial observer
with the dignity Of responsible, repre-
sentative government The utterances
Of Salisbury regarding Armenian re-
international monetary conference
were the only matters of real impor-
tance during the session. But not much
was expected, because the policy and
plans of the government were not per-
fected and could not very well be, under
the circumstances, while Parliament
was in session. The great majority Sc
cured by the unionists in the general
election will, perhaps, make this Il
more difficult task than it otherwise
would have been.
Before the reconvening of Parliament
there is likely to be developments re-
lating to the Irish question which win
again revive very active interest in that
issue. 1t seems to be generally con-
ceded that there is nothing to be
hoped for in the interest of the Irish
cause from the party in power and this
is having the effect to arouse among
Irishmen everywhere feeling that ag
gressive action is necessary. The con-
ventiOn Of Irish Americans to be held
in Chicago this month is for the purpose
of giving expression to this feeling and
of stimulating it. Factional quarrels
in the Irish party continue to damage
the cause and seem to grow in bitter
ness, but it is still an issue before the
S-itish people, aud will continue to
be, despite the fact that an overwhelm-
ing tory majority in Parliament seems
to render hopeless for years to come all
efforts in behalf of Irish home rule.

DEMOCRATIC JINGOlSM.

There is an effort making in some
quarters to put the democratic party,
before the national campaign Of next
that Is, to make it the exponent of
what is called "Americanism," which
simply means hostility to England.
The foreign policy of the present ad-
ministration has been subjected to a
good deal of adverse criticism. 1t has
been characterized as not sufficiently
firm in asserting the rights and up
holding the dignity of the nation and
as being especially weak in relation
to disputes between Great Britain and
American countries. The course of the
administration in regard to the Mica.
raguan and Venezuelan issues has af-
forded opportunity for vociferous ami
radical Of the jingo element, which is
not confined to either Of the political
parties. Much has been said about
enforcing the Monroe doctrine and
doing other things deemed by this ele-
ment to be essential to the maintenance
Of the dignity and influence Of the
United States among the nations.
Evidently conceiving that this sort
of thing might be n serviceable cam
paign shibboleth next year, with which
it would perhaps be possible to di-
vert the popular mind from too close
attention to the mistakes and fOllies
of the democratic party, certain demo-
1.t.a t. Of ho
started out to commit the party to q
policy of jingofsm. The most con-
spicuous of these Is the Ohio demo-
cratic candidate for governor, Mr..
James E. Campbell, who is believed to
think well enough of himself to aspire
to the presidency. Mr. Campbell made
his debut rs jingo at the Tammany
celebration on July 4, when he made an
address brstling with "Americanism,"
regardless of the fact that his utter
ances would be construed, as was the
case, as a direct and distinct slap at
the Cleveland administration. AS if
to attest the sincerity of his utterances
on that occasion, Mr.. Campbell induced
the convention which nominated him
for governor of Ohio to endorse his
views 1t adopted n resolution, drawn
by Mr.. Campbell, declaring that ''the
British government has contemptuously
disregarded and defied the policy of
| this government as announced by Pres
ident Monroe in 1923, and ever since
adhered to, which should create the
gravest apprehension in the minds of
all patriotic Americans and call for the
prompt and emphatic demands on the
part of our government that the Mon
roe doctrine must and shall be re-
spected and observed" The attitude
Ia this respect of the democratic candi-
date for governor of Ohio has not at
tracted general attention, perhaps to
his disappointment, though it has not
been wholly disregarded. The New
York Sun has not only cordially com
mended It, but has declared that nc
man can be elected as president of the

The Vanity of Wilson.

CINCINNATI Enquirer IdemJ.
Postmaster General Wilson is man of con-
cessions. "As to revenue he says, "the
operations Of the new tariff bill ought to be
satisfactory to it's promoters" Had the
bill which Mr.. Wilson fathered, as chairman
Of the committee on ways and means, be-
come law, the United States treasury would
now be in sad state of wreck. He would
lave been partially at fault only A great
many things in the Wilson bill were forced
on the reputed author of that work through
administration influence. 1t was well under
stood that the chairman was opposed to an
income tax, but yielded in the interest of
peace and harmony. All Of these things do
not prevent Mr. Wilson from being a good
postmaster general.

1t is estimated that the amount Of money
actually invested in the street railroads of
the country--10,3S3 miles in all-s $500, 900, =

$685. 900, ,000 or at an average rate of over
$685. 600 per mile, which is nearly double that
Of the steam railroads, and the inference
follows that there must be a good deal Of
