are unworthy OF it. The attempt
on the part Of Gov. Pingree to APP
point guardian for the Legislature
of the State of Michigan is an
acknowledgement that its legisla-
ture is incompetent to make and
frame laws-and by deduction nit
is an acknowledgement that the
people of Michigan are incompe-
tent and unworthy of the privi-
ledge of self-government.
SOCIAL scandals are not desir-
able topics for editorials in a high
ly respectable family newspaper,
like this. Yet, the recent down.
fall of one of those self-elected
aristocrats in New York who have
been a constant cause of comment
because Of their absurd claims to
social distinction, is matter for
grave thought. While our SYM
pathy may always go out to the
unfortunate man, who, despite his
millions, was unable to maintain
the purity and integrity of his
own home to the woman who
fell--still the incident should
teach us and them lesson. It is
a lesson of Justice and true NOR
atty.
It should also teach these pre-
tenders who presume to be better
than the people that money is not
virtue: that it is not pure blood;
it is not learning or genius
even responsibility. Yet at this
time, when the nation prides itself
upon the elimination of civiliza-
ton, money is the ruler Of society.
1t does not take up men Of learn
ing or genius in its fellowship.
1t openly shuns those of high
minds and noble impulses, and
seeks it's satisfaction in low cum
ming and detestable schemes for
the increase of its boards. 1t hugs
to it's breast the vampire whose
Unsuitable lust for wealth threatens
the nation with ruin. He is all
powerful. He may sit in his pal
atial home in New York and order
his hirelings to send a man to pris-
on in a distant state perhaps a
man who is his superior in every
thing which makes a man-both
physically, morally and mentally.
But occasionally the crust
breaks, and discloses to the world
the fostering sore which is eating
it's way into the vitals of society.
When this happens, the thou
sands who struggle daily for a
bare existence apply the lesson to
their everyday lives. They then
take note of the injustices that are
committed every day in the name
Of morality; of the cruel hypocrisy
which scorns the modest and vir-
tuous daughters Of the people,
while worshipping richly dressed
ntons,-like the one who has
Just been found out.
No wonder that poor girls, who
are daily compelled to bow before
these bejeweled daughters of Ba-
bylon, while toiling for a CON-
fortress existence, become dis
couraged, weary and desperate.
No wonder that the people make
laws to safeguard the honors of
their daughters. No wonder so
many fall.
Yet after all, how vastly superior
is not the maiden of the people,
with the light of innocence in her
eyes, the blush of health upon her
cheeks-the beautiful future mother
Of the coming nation, to the
painted Jezebel of society, be-
decked with costly raiment and

IDA FARMERS JOIN THE Beers

IDA FARMERS JOIN THE Beers.
Sioux City Journal: William and
Daniel Davies, of Hostein, Ida county,
have sold their 800 acre farm and stock
and, in response to request from their
father, Daniel Davies, who is large
farmer near West Barley Cape Colony,
have departed for South Africa, where
they will fight with the Boer forces.
The two young men came to Iowa about
eight years ago and took up land ad.
joining that of their uncle, Edward
Daniels, who is still a resident of Ida
county, and have since been engaged in
rural pursuits. About eight weeks ago
they received letter from their father
stating that it vas probable all the
farmers in the co ony would assist the
Beers in their conflict with the British,
and asking the sons to sell their farm
and join him at once. The bows com.
piled with the fathers request as soon
as possible and are now in route to the
Transvaal They started by way OF
Minneapolis, ERE they made arrange
ments for the entire trip.

We would call attention to the very

issue. Few businesses in Western Iowa
have shown more steadyand gratifying
growth than has this institution. The
deposits have now reached 1896 600 90

markable thing about the bank is its

strong as it could possibly be made,
each name being a guarantee of stability
and responsibility. The bank has re-

Sundays Council Bluffs Nonpariel)
G. E. Grafton, engineer IN charge Of
the construction of the Illinois Central's
new line from Fort Dodge to this city,
will this morning. wire Division Sup
erintendent c. z. Dixon at Cherokee
that the new road is at his disposal.
In this way the line will be turned
over from the engineering to to the
operating department and it is the ex-
pectation that Superintendent Dixon
will begin the running of trains into
this city almost Immediately, not later
than the 18th.
The work that is now in progress for
the further Improvement of roadbed
that Is already much better than some
that have been in use for years will not
be stopped by the transfer of the road
from one department to the other.
From now on it will be carried on by
the operating department, just as
similar work is prosecuted on the old
established divisions of the Central or
any other road. Mr.. Grafton will,
however, continue for some time yet to
have charge of the engineering work
on the new road.
Engineer Grafton has been with the
Central for more than a dozen years
and has in that time turned over a
good many pieces of new work, but.
while he doesn't say anything about it,
it is known that he is just about
as proud of the job he is finishing now
as any that he has ever turned out
The new line consists of 131 mics
of as good track as has ever been put
down il Iowa. 1t is laid on oak ties
and eighty -five-p pound steel throughout,
is constructed with the least possible
gradient and has a roadbed that needs
but use and age to make it one of the
finest known to modern railroad build
ing. In addition to the main line side
tracks aggregating thirty six miles have
been laid.
The station buildings along the line
are nearly completed, with the excep-
ton of the large passenger and freight
depots at Council Bluffs and Denison,
work on which will be pushed as rapid
ly as possible with the delays that are
inevitable because of the inability of
the contractors to secure prompt fill
ing of their ord rs for material. From
Fort Dodge to this city, stockyards
have been located at eighteen different
stations. These also are nearly all
completed. 9a

The Des Moines correspondent of the
Marshalltown Times Republican grows
indignant over supposed snub to Gov.
Shaw, because the Henderson gavel
was PRESENTED by MIR. Dolliver. The
facts are that Gov. Shaw sent word
that he could not be present at the time
and that it was pursuant to his request
that the gavel was presented by mem
ber of the Iowa Congressional delega-
ton. No, the governor was not
snubbed.

The Best Year LII History.

We wish to call the attention OF our
popnlist friends to the recent report Of
Hon. L. T. Roberts, Director OF the
United States MINIS. Mr.. Bryan and
his populist friends claimed that more
money was needed and the republican
party has given the people more new
money during the past year than in
any other year of our history. 1t was
good money too = no cheap John, fifty
cent. Mexican sort of dollar, but
dollar worth 100 cents the world round.
The United States coined sos, III, $50,
add to this the S51 100000 excess Of i'm
ports over exports of gold, and deduct
ting the 25 million excess of silver ex
ported over silver imported and we find
total increase of coin on hand of 1874
million dollars. This has been the
greatest business year the United States
has ever known, we have become the
workshop Of the world. The balance
of trade in our favor is $500, COO, 600
