CIRCULATION STATEMENT.
FRIDAY. MARCH %. 1909.
The Lash of Public opinion.

The Porto Rican hurricane is still at
work on the Republican Administration
and party. Closely following the dest-uc-
tive gust from Indiana, where the Payne
Foraker infamy has been denounced as "a
departure from right principles" on yes
terday a thunderboIt from Iowa burst in
the middle or the trust camp with fright
ful noise and asphyxiating effect. The
House Of Representatives Of the Iowa Leg
iBlature unanimously passed a resolution
as follows:
Tho people Of Iowa are uraltcrably opposed to
the establishment OF any tariff duties between thu
juItCd StIte- and any territory acquired Us "a re-
suit 81 the spanish American war, the people Of
which accepted the sovereignty of this Govern
meut without resistance and voluntarily passed
under the jurisdiction Of its legislation and laws
It is quite needless to remark that this
resolution, when brought 10 the attention
Of the various members OF the Iowa dele
cation in Congress. caused them unspeak-
able pain and terror. Speaker Henderson
was visibly and almost profanely agitated
He is said 20 have declared that what the
Legislature of his State did not know

Fighting ThurstOn--The Hon John
Mellin Thurston appears to have a hard
fight on his hands in Nebraska. sinful
taneously with his announcement several
weeks ago that he did not desire TO stand
for reelection to the Senate he stated that
he wished to round out his public career
by presiding over the calm deliberations
OF the Philadelphia convention. A similar
honor was his at the St. Louis convention.
and there his megaphonic voice was heard
high above all the noises that were made
At that time Mr.. Hanna seemed very proud
of Mr. Thurston, but e seems that some III
fortune has befallen the Nebraskau since
then in Hanna quarters. II Is nOj doubted
that Mr.. Thurston' troubles at home would
be ended by a sly little Wink by Mr.. Hanna
and why the wink is not given is one Of the
mysteries Of contempOraneous politics. IT.
deed. what has made Mr. Thurstou persona
non grata at the White House ever since
his announced determination 10 retire 20
private life at the expiration of his pres ent
tenn in the Senate cannot be understood
unless il is that he has WickCdly refused
to approve some Nebraskan appointments
that have been sent to the Senate BIZ the
President. The cause assigned FOR the
fight on him in Nebraska is that he has
severed his connection with the Union Pa
ciic Railroad and permitted himself TO be-
come encOled in the tentacleS OF the Stan
dard Oil Octopus. But il is thought that
the Standard Oil people certainly would be
( very much gIatified to have their Nebras-
lya attorney made chairman OF the Phila-
delphia convention. IT, however they are
anxious to have him thus h0lOred undoubt-
eddy a way can be found to stop the fight
| in Nebraska. and it is thought possible
that an early application made to Mr. Han
ma in the proper spirit would clear the way
Tor Mr.. ThuTston to round out his public
career ia the manner he so much desires.

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.

Trouble in IOwa.-Like a thunder
clap from a cloudlcss sky comes the news
from Des Moines that the lower house OF
the Iowa Legislature has adopted Sc
ries Of resolutions very strongly condemn
ing the Oxnard bill, imposing upon Porto
Rico a grinding tariff Tor the benefit Of
the Sugar, Tobacco, and Rum Trusts. TIE
shock would not have been so great in
Washington had this action been taken
in any other state of the Union. But
Iowa just now is very potent in affairs
at Washington-so potent. In fact that
had the Iowa delegation been disposed to
do so Il could have driven Mr.. Oxnard
from the Capitol when he was there lobby
ing his bill through the House. and thus
the Hawkeye men could have saved them
selves and their party the trouble and
tTibulatiOn they are now in. Even now
Iowa can save the day for the party by
the feathery-footed Senator Allison timing
the free traders in the Senate. But ap-
parcntly there is no more likelihood Of
Senator Allison doing this than there WIS
that Speaker Henderson would kill the OK
