 In spite of her white face and startled eyes she did not exhibit the anger and incredulity l had expected. Was it pos sible that she had already begun to dis trust Macintyre?

Single Board of Control.

The subject of providing one board
of control for all our state institutions
in place of the present plan Of a sepa.
rate board for each one of the thirteen
institutions, is subject that will come
up before the present legislature. IL
cannot be said to be new question
forit has been talked about, more or
less. for twenty years. But as our pub.
lie institutions multiply and become
larger this question of one board takes
on added Importance. Senator Funk
of Spirit Lake, one of the states most
experienced and best legislators, is per-
haps the leading and ablest advocate
of the single board Of control, though
there are many other able advocates.
1t is said by the advocates of the sim
gle board that under the present plan
there is 10 cooperation. For instance
in the home for the blind many brooms
are made. Now if all were under Que
management, all the other institutions
of the state would be supplied with
broOms from there. But this is not the
case. The other institutions buy else.
where and these brooms are drug on
the market The same as to the other
products.
Another great wrong that has grown
up under the present form is the com.
binatlon made each session to obtain
appropriations for each institution
Much more is asked for than is expect
ed and the bigger appropriation a
member can obtain for an institution
in his county, the more successful leg
islator he is considered to be. If a
man does not enter this combination
he runs poor chance of getting sup
port from any of the combination for
any measure he may introduce. A sim
gle board of control with the knowl-
edge of the needs of all could make a
truthful report and ask only for what
each needs.

Ohio republican politicians are some

They get so many offices that too near
all want one, too many want the same
one, and so they scrap over it. Ohio

statesmen. She is now known as the
Modern Mother of Presidents. 10 have

as an honor among politicians and Il
sure talisman of success. But some of
the Ohio leaders just now are doing
their best to spoil the charm, and to
change it to a nodoo. Ohio republicans,
or many of them, are acting in way
to bring shame upon their party. Mark
Hanna received the nomination of the
party for senator and if any republi-
can legislative candidate, if elected, did
not intend to support him, that legis-
lative candidate should have said so
before election and not wait till after
election and then betray his trust.

he proves to be implicated III the oppo-
sition, should never more expect honors
from the republican party.

OUR NEW PRESS.

A few weeks ago when in Chicago the
publisher of this paper selected new
newspaper press to take the place of the
old one in this office, and few weeks
later purchased it, AS soon as last
weeks edition was off the old press,
which has seen very many years of SER
vice, was removed and shipped to Chi
cago, and the new one was set up. The
new press is of the Country Babcock
pattern with all the latest improvements

screw distribution, and several other
conveniences to make glad the heart of
the printer. 1t is equal in speed and all
other qualities to any press used in a
country office in Western Iowa. The
new machine is much larger than the
old one, being billed through at 74OO lbs,
It is an excellent piece of machinery and
we are quite sure that at least in few
weeks we will be able to get excellent

The Advocate has Il local correspond
ent at Viola Center who dips into
politics as much as into local matters.
Last week he said he thought he could
see the disruption of the republican
party foreshadowed by paragraph in
the REPUBLICAN on Cuban affairs.
Now we desire to say to the CORES
pondent that we couldn't disrupt the
republican party over the Cuban ques-
tion if we would, and we wouldn't if
we could. Neither do we think our
remarks showing sympathy with Cuba,
dislike of SPANS tyranny and an ex-
preston favoring recognition of bel
ligerent rights, indicate hostility
toward the administration. Republic
cans may differ on many matters, and
still be republicans, all. SO long as re-
publicans are united on the leading
issues, sound money and protection,
they may differ on other questions
which are not strictly party questions.
The republican party has always liber-
ally recognized the right of private
opinion. Because the democratic party
under the last administration badly
split itself over the money question
and disowned its own leader, our DEM
ocratic friend should not think slight
difference of opinion on the Cuban
question would disrupt the republican
party. We fear with him "the wish is
father to the thought"

From the Red Oak Express we read
of two aged citizens of that city, Mr..
and Mrs. Diedriks, making a gift to that
city for public library. They deed
real estate valued at about $4,000 to
two trustees who are to give them the
proceeds as long as they live and at
their death the property is to go to
founding library to be known as the
Diederik's Library. No more worthy
or useful disposition of property could
be made.

This paper recently remarked that
if j. Ii. Funk was elected Speaker the
House would at least be sure of a
competent and strong man for presid
ing officer this term. The writer re.
members that when at What Cheer we
think during the fall of 1890, A. B.
Cummins, of Des Moines, was billed to
deliver a speech there. The committee
had gone to considerable trouble to
bill the meeting and all was going well
till the day of the meeting when word
came that Mr.. Cummins was sick and
that the committee had sent Hon. j.
II. Funk. The disappointment was
great as the public knew Nj. Cummins
to be an orator and treat was expected,
and none of us knew j. ii. Funk. But
the committee escorted him to the hall
which was well filled. The reasons for
the absence of Mr.. Cummins were
given and Mr.. Funk was introduced.
For two hours the speaker held the
undivided attention of the audience
and the general verdict was that the
speech was one of the best ever de-
livered in the city. Since then we have
not had any doubt as to Mr.. Funk's
qualities as thinker or In his ability
to clearly express his opinion. We
predict he will impress his strong per-
sonality on the attention of the people
of Iowa and that he will serve the peo-
pie honorably and ably.

The thirty eight democratic members

The thirty eight democratic members
of the House of Representative at
Des Moines voted for the republican
candidate for speaker, Mr.. Funk, on
last Monday. This was done for sew
eral reasons. One was that Mr.. Funk
is All able and fair man and they
wanted to show him respect. OF course
as they were in the minority they could
not accomplish much by voting for
one of their own members for speaker
except that it gives their candidate a
prominence and leadership. In most
legislative bodies the minority votes
for its candidate for this reason. AS
it was they slowed their good will
toward Mr.. Funk. Although the dem
ocrats voted for the republican nom
inee for speaker, they selected and
voted for full ticket for other house
positions. On the ticket voted for by
the democrats were the names of two
Audubon county people, David Work,
man for az assistant doorkeeper, and
Dassie Barrie for page.
