HERE'S A GEM,

The Hon. Cato Sells. who was tenn
porary chairman Of the Iowa Democratic
convention, in his sdpeech declared that
"the Declaration 81, Independence, the fed

balls. "-Indianapolis Journal.

much force. sdi -
The Declarations of Independence is
made mocke5y, and the constitution is
being whitfield away by the courts, in

THE IOWA TREASURY GAINS.


One Of the important republican adj
dresses Delivered in Iowa Saturday was
that OF state Treasurer Herriott at
Stuart I t was Important because it
had the official stamp Of q public ser-
want who knows his subject thoroughly
and because it disclosed a most crafty
ing condition Of state finances.
Figures are dry reading usually, yet
these disclose important facts. The
speaker referred TO the deficit in the
treasury last year and showed that
while on July L. 1897. the treasury was
embarrassed to the tune of $40 s27.T7
on April 90, 1899, all outstanding en-
dorsed warrants unpaid for lack of
funds, were called in and paid off. Not
only was this done but on June 80. 1899,
less than three months thereafter. the
treasury closed the biennial period
with a general revenue balance OF s445,-
OO2.37. to which, if we add $4,000 due
from the national government for out
lay by the state in eauippinS troops IN
the late war. we will have the largest
cash balance in the treasury at the
close of any biennial period in the last
twenty-five years.
The speaker asks: What did the
party do when they found the state
treasury embarrassed? Were they in
different about it? Did the republican

American Republic" 1t is an inspiring

great nation. The archbishop treated
it in a masterful way. His tributes

American republic! Liberty own ere

human dignity; symbol and guardian of
justice and of freedom, inspiration of
hope to all peoples of the earth; she de-
serves limitless admiration and limit

fittingly describe present conditions as
he sketched them. Material prosperity
belongs to us as TO no other people"
Again in other fields Already she has
her poets and her. orators, her historians
and her philosophers, whose names oth-

Her painters and her sculptors are win

Better than all is his estimate of the
character of the people. There has
been in America no deterioration OF
character, no lowering of the standard
in public or private life, as the result OF
her democracy. I fear not TO proclaim
that the general tone of American life
