Is The new Milwaukee Daily, the Free
Press, is edited by H. F. Myrick
That name is we'll known in Wiscon-
sin journalism and has become rtsyn-
onymous with ndependenee;ainteg
and conseientiousness Therefore, the
Free Press has distinct advantage-in
argument in the fact that what It has
to say is always taken seriously and
sincerely, while many journals, url-
fortunately, have not the reputation
that is given the Free Press through
it's editor. When the Free Press up.
holds the Primary Election law, it is
accepted at once as the real opinion of
the Free Press. When the Free Press
asserts that DR.. Ames, Mayor of Min
ueapolis, elected under the primary
election system, is not a product of
that system, it is not the sincerity, but
the Judgment of the Free Press that is
called into question.
Why should not Mayor Ames, since
he is the duly elected result of the
primary election system, be regarded
as the product of that. system? How
does the fact that he has previously
been Mayor of the city under the con-
vention system alter the fact? The
primary election system was supposed
to offer an obstacle to machine rule
and give the people an opportunity to
assert their own good sense and place
men in the positions of responsibility
who are worthy. If previous expert
ence had amply proved the ineffieiency
and unwortniness, of Mayor Ames, it
is a natural osupposition that, thus
forewarned and Informed, the people,
if the primary system were effective,
would GUST Mr.. Ames and put another
man in his place. But, notwithstand-
ing, Mr.. Ames continues in the posi-
ton of Mayor of the city of Minneapo-
lis. Then what is wrong? The rem
edy has been applied and the case re-
mains unchanged. Either the people
were not aware of the character of
Mayor Ames, or they are themselves
as bad as the man, or else the primary
system is not what it was thought to
be. Which of these alternatives looks
the most reasonable? The first is i'm
possible. The people of Minneapolis
have had only too great an opportunity
to learn the character of Mayor Ames.
In fact, they have learned it so thor
ough1y that they cried out against 1t.
The second alternative will not be
readily granted" by any reasonable
man, for when we acknowledge the de-
generacy and un6tness of the voters,
there will be no use of attempted cleo
ton reform laws. Then the last alter
native seems the only logical one. II
would seem that the primary election
system failed in Minneapolis just
when it had the most advantageous
field of operation. It is true that one
test may be too little evidence on
which to altogether discredit the sys-
TEN. There may be difficulties and
embarrassments accompanying first
trial that will disappear in subsequent
trials, that may have exercised consid
cradle influence in the election of Mr.
Ames. But the fact that the primary
election system failed to defeat the
election Of an undesirable and unpopu.
lar officer in a great city like Mime
apo1is at least cannot be looked upon
as an encouraging symptom nor as a
testimony calculated to strengthen the
faith of those who have been disposed
to regard the system askance.

| As a sequel to a meeting of Iowa can
ners, held in this city last summer, q
conference of representatives of twenty
different canning factories of the state
and one from Nebraska was held Tues
day afternoon in Cedar Rapids The
meeting was held behind closed doors
and the matters talked over We're along
the same lines as those discussed at the
Marshalltown meeting, namely, the for

include all the territory west of the Mis-
sissippi river.

consequence in the state are to bez In
Guided in the new company and all were
present excepting representatives of the
Iowa Canning Company, of yinton, who
were seen today in reference to their in
terests in the formation of the can
ners trust"
The idea of the promoters OF the new
concern is to unite all of the canning
industries of the state under one cor
poration, each of the companies now
operated as separate institution to go
thru the formality of selling out to the
new concern and taking the number of
shares of stock in the new company
that would be warranted and mutual.
agreed upon, and based upon the value
of the different plants. The percentages
We're all figured out at the meeting at
Cedar Rapids yesterday, and all were
satisfactory. The new combination Is to
start out with paid up capital stock OF
81, 600. 900.
The companies that are to be merged
into the new concern are as follows:
Atlantic Canning Company, Atlantic,
Iowa; Martin & Neurie Canning Com
pany, Blair. Neb.; Cedar Falls Canning
Company; Elgin Canning Company, Ell
gin, Iowa: Garrison Canning Company,
Gilman Canning Company. Independ-
,ence Canning Company, LaPorte Can

Canning Company and Iowa Canning
Company, of Vinton; Kelly Canning
Company, of Wayerly; Waterloo Can

of Cedar Rapids: Glenwood Canning
Company, and the Marshall Canning
Company, of this city.
Another meeting will be held In two
weeks, at which time the matter of com
plete reorganization. election OF officers
and an executive committee will come
up. 1t is not known whether the pres
ent owners OF the canneries will have
charge Of their old factories under the
new management or not. 1t Is likely
that in some instances the present man
ayers will continue. and in others that
they will be superseded by others more
experienced in corn packing.

Politics at onawa.

SIOUX City, Oct. 16.--"Yes, it is true
mat the necessary Indian signatures
nave been secured for the cession of
thei: lands in Gregory county," said
Senator Robert j. Gamble, of South Da-
kota. yesterday afternoon. He was pass
ing thru the city en- route TO Chicago on
personal business, accompanied by
Judge Bartlett Trip.
On Oct. 4 I received a letter from
Special Agent Mclaughlin. who had
been sent by the interior department
with the Indians. saying he had secured
the signatures. think the land is to be
coded at the payment of $3.50 per acre.
There are $4,000 acres of it, which will
be coded, in Gregory county. 1t is still
necessary that congress ratify the
treaty, but anticipate this will be done,
shall give it my close attention, for
have been interested in this matter from
the beginning.
I'm the first session of the last con-
eress introduced bill looking to the
opening of these lands" continued the
senator. but after being favorably re-
ported it could not be pushed to passage
because of other matters which de-
handed consideration. So 1T was
dropped and instead we secured the APP
pointment of the special agent under
section of the general law to negotiate.
The report will have to be ratified by
congress, as have said.".
do you anticipate the lottery plan OF
dispcsing of the lands will be adopted =,

Professor Chas. Zebelin's second lee

est relief the life of John Ruskin, the
eminent English art critic and writer,
whose many-sided character entitled
him to prominence in even more roles
than those enumerated, including that
OF philanthropist. The lecturer ex-
pressed the belief that Ruskin Is en-
titled to be regarded as one of the great
est characters of the nineteenth century
A son OF a wealthy man and an lnher-
ftor of wealth, he did not yield to its
Establishments but rather cherished the
dogma and attempted to live up to it
that there is no wealth but life" that
the future of the wealthy should not
be to ponder to selfish, interests, but
to improve the lives of those who sur
round them. 1t was careful consider
alton of Ruskin's efforts In various
fields of noble endeavor. in sociology as
well as in art. that the lecturer dwelt

Own IAbelS.
The recent decision in the supreme
court. in which 1t was held that dealers
of gasoline must label the cans iii which
the oil is delivered or stand liable for
damages thru accidents, is causing con-
siderable trouble. The Standard Oil
Company insists that the state should
furnish the labels. because the law is
mandatory and was of the states max
ing, but this the state now refuses to
do, altho It has kept a supply heretofore.
Oil Inspector j. B. NJ. Bishop, OF Toledo,
since the decision, has been The re-
ciplent OF numerous requests for labels.
until his supply was exhausted, Mr..
Bishop then applied to the secretary of
state for another supply. and received
the following reply:
There Is no authority under the law
for the state furnishing dealers with
gasoline labels, and it is the opinion of
this department that the same can not
be legally done, neither should it be re-
CURED. in the case of dealers in gasoline.
any more than it is In cases OF drug
