the Hawkeye state made a fine i'm
preston on the two millions of peo-
pie who watched the pageant. Though
there were bands and drum corps by
the scores and other attractive fea-
lures in the line that extended over
Is miles, it remained for Iowa to in
troduce pleasant novelty which won
appreciation of the people. The A.
o. U. W. Band of Cedar Falls played
the State song of Iowa as the column
passed into Michigan avenue, and
some clear-voiced singers among the
musicians sang the chorus.
AS the band passed the reviewing
stand. it halted and the members,
facing the stand, dropped their in
struments and sang:
"We're from the wild rose state
of Iowa
Across the Mississippi.
From Iowa,
From Iowa,
From Iowa,

Then the Iowa veterans broke into
a yell that would make any crowd of
college rooters madly jealous. They
yelled:
"Rah, rah, ray,
Corn and hay,
We're from the State
OF I-o-way.
Then fearing that this did not fully
inform the people as to who they
were, the Iowa veterans then loudly
asked themselves:
"Rah, rah, reel who are we?"
Then they proceeded to answer the
question:
First in war,
First in peace,
First in the hands of the Chicago
police.

We are not very familiar with
the details of the Occur 'dAlene
troubles in Idaho, but as the troops
were called for by the democratic
governor, and as his action was ap-
proved by the recent democratic
convention, it comes with bad
grace for any one to try to make par
ty politics out of it as against the re-
publican cause Gov. Stunenburg
was born and raised In Marion coun-
ty, Iowa, and has been a lifelong
democrat and supported Bryan in
1896. If he did right in the Coeur
'dAlene matter the republicans can
not claim the honor. If he did wrong
his party is the one to stand the re-
sponsibility.
The Oskaloosa herald. (Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa) 1885-1919, 1900-09-06

with dynamite, the governor of Idaho
called on the President for troops.
Men who we're charged with blowing
up the works and killing some Of the
workmen we're tried for murder and
sent to the penitentiary. Governor
Stunenburg, who called out the
troops and who caused the prosecu-
ton of these men, was a democrat
and voted for and supported Bryan,
and was elected on the democratic
ticket, as governor of Idaho. Just
why Mr.. Rinehart should bring up
this action of a democratic governor
and try to prejudice the republican
party because of his acts, we do not
know. As Stunenburg was a demo-
crat, it was not necessary for us to
defend him and it is very bad taste
for Mr.. Rinehart to try to make party
politics out of this democratic gov
ernor's action.

The Keokuk County News says a
young business man called on Sig
Quincy girl the other evening. He
thought he was getting pretty solid
and just before leaving asked per-
mission to call again. She told him
he needn't come, because a man who
spent his money and drank the way
he did, would never amount to any
thing and she would have nothing to
do with such fellow. "Now that
girl is good, sensible, practical girl,
worth her weight in gold. She didn't
go around telling stories about the
fellow, but just spoke her mind. That
kind of talk does more good than all
the temperance talks since the days
of Noah"

The State Fair is an immense
thing for Des Moines in business
way. 1t is estimated that the so 900
out of town visitors to the city left
with merchants, restaurant and ho-
tel keepers and amusement purvey-
ors, something like half million
dollars. The fair time was unsea-
sonable for merchants, coming too
late for summer goods and too early
for fall and winter articles, never
theless they express themselves as
well satisfied with the business done.

Voters of the Sixth district are
waiting anxiously for an expression
from Judge Steck regarding that
plank of the democratic platform
which reiterates the demand of the
Chicago platform for the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the
heaven-born ratio of Is to 1. Four
years ago Mr.. Steck was a gold dem
ocrat, and for his convictions he was
dubbed TRAITOR" and kicked out of
the party by the democratic news
paper. Has he or the party Topped?

The country which discharged
from service one million soldiers at
the close of four years of civil war,
the men returning to peaceful pur-
suits, is not likely to feel itself men
aced by an army of $4,000, three
fourths of whom are in distant lands
rescuring and protecting American
citizens and American interests, es-
tablishing civil governments and pro-
claiming liberty, peace and prosper
ity wherever the flag floats.

Death is playing sad havoc with
the "Boys of '61." August the roles
of the Des Moines pension agency
under whose jurisdiction Mahaska
county comes, showed 54 ,636; Sept.

gust. There we're 154 original PEN
sioners enrolled during the month,
bat the death loss was 167. There
are now 1o9 war with Spain pension
ers on the roll, the last figure, 8, is
the number of minor children. Under
general law there are 600 minors,

-Eddyville Tribune: A lady friend
of ours ordered a climber for her
porch from the agent of foreign
nursery company and paid a dollar
for it. 1t came all right and lived,
but she could have gone down by the
fence around the orchard and got
hundreds just like it for nothing, for
it was only common Virginia creep,
er sold to her under it's botanical
name.

WHY not more canning factorie

Why not more canning factories?
A Des Moines Register representa-
tive, while in Gilman, Iowa, was
shown through the canning factory
and saw 400 hands busily engaged in
canning corn. They turn out 1876, 900
cans daily, $50 cans per minute, using
one ton of corn every four minutes,
ship six tons daily; the corn brings
the farmer $4,000 per acre; sixty
teams waiting to unload steadily from
morning until night.

Clinton Herald; If Mr.. Bryan
cared to be candid he could discourse
more learnedly upon the art Of ac-

other candidates in the field. Mr..
Bryan is the wealthiest candidate be-
fore the people today and he has

Bryan is selfish enough to decline to

-Keokuk Gate City: The young
man who is discontented because he
is not promoted fast enough should
sit down and watch stone cutters
patient work for day or two and
then stop in and see baker mould
ing loaves of bread. Then ha can
calculate the ratio between lasting
quality and the time of manufacture.
But the trouble is that after you have
chiseled some boys for years, they
are still as soft as loaves of bread
and good for nothing but for other
people to eat up in the struggle for
existence.

The people of Iowa will be called
upon in November to vote upon a
constitutional amendment abolishing
annual elections, and so grouping
officers that elections will be held
once in cwo years. No more import

posed to the constitution of Iowa
since the striking out of the word
white at the close of the civil war.

about canning factory for Oska-

work. You are as much-or should
as he is.

LITERARY YES.

The first edition of the "Optimist"
is out and copy has been received
at this office. 1t is intended as the
magazine of the middle west and is
published at Boone, Iowa, by II. s.
Kneedler, we'll known and suscess-
full newspaper man. It's form and
make up are neat and attractive,
somewhat after the style of the
"Philistine," and its contents are
sparkling, original and interesting.
Iowa readers will be especially in
terested il this new work as it is in
many ways disrinetively an Iowa
creation. 1t starts out under most
suspicious surroundings and we hope
it will be teeming success.
