REpRIMAND FOR SCIENTIST.
Prince George of Bavaria Rebels a
Theory of Descent from Ape.


Munich, April Professor Ranke, a
leading Bavarian scientist, has been
officially reprimanded for referring to
the descent of man from the ape in the
presence of Prince George of Bavaria,
who, to make matters worse for Ranke,
as it appears. happened to attend the
lecture in uniform-the prince being a
lieutenant in the Life Guards.
The statement to which Prince
George took especial exception was
this: Mans descent from the ape car
not be argued out of existence by the
attempt of army officers and women to
squeeze in their waists by the use of
corsets.'
Immediately afterward Prince
George, who is 20 years of age, strutted
up to the old professor and told him be-
fore roomful of students that he must
not make such derogatory statements
in future, and that no matter where the
people" came from, his-that is, the
royal family of Bavaria-could not pos
sibly be descended from an unreasoning
animal, seeing that the Wittelbachers
were placed on earth by Providence to
rule.
Professor Ranke was so much taken
by surprise that he had not word in
reply.

Great Britain. That government all
lowed the Suez canal to be built by a
private company, with capital largely
contributed by the people of other ma
lions, altho the enterprise was to be
mainly for the benefit of it's own COM
merces and it's possessions. When the
canal was shown to be an engineering
success and profitable investment, it
purchased controlling interest in the
stock; and then, in order to make sure
of connection thru the canal with its
imperial domain and for it's navy, in
time of peace and war, it took violent
military possession of the entire coun-
try in which the canal is located and
still continues as ovedlord."
Mr.. Foster has brought out the diff
ference in spirit and purpose so well
that nothing remains to be said

Lumber Is Boom in Oregon.

u
Tho big steamship Oceano, lying at
Irving dock, is receiving her cargo at
a lively rate, and will be ready for
sea early next week. The Oceano holds
the record for Pacific coast lumber
carriers but on her present trip has
SO much flour aboard that she will
carry only tx million feet, shipment
sufficiently large to make full cargo
for the ordinary sailing vessel in the
lumber trade. The Oceano has aboard
34,250 barrels Of flour. of which 12,-
500 barrels were loaded at Tacoma for
Vladivostock. and 21,750 barrels at
Seattle for Port Arthur and Chez Foo.
The Oseana is under charter to the
Pacific Export Lumber Company, and
is the third big carrier now in port
to that firm. The total shipments on

A WORD OF CONSERVATION.

The following communication to the
Times Republican from Mr.. e. j. Good
win, of Baxter, is one of the things that
make publishing good newspaper
worth while. While every newspaper is
published for gain, no worker who
gives his best is better paid than
sby such appreciation. Mr.. Goodwin is
one of the thousands of intelligent Iowa
farmers who read and appreciate the
Times Republican and his letter is an
evidence of the capabilities of the Iowa
1uralist and the great beneficence ard
need Of mail system that brings a
daily delivery to such men.
Baxter, Ia. April dear Sirs: In
closed find postoffice money order for

ment.
have been a reader of your valu-
able daily off and on for few years
and can say that for me it is the best
daily / can read, especially of my ac-
quafntance with those published in the
state. regret that can not just now
continue taking your paper, but hope
that in the near future l may become
a regular yearly subscriber.
Your general makeup Of the paper
is my ideal of daily newspaper and
especially is this true of your market
quotatins. which ought to be APP
preciated by every farmer, stock raiser

pecially wish to commend, viz: The
first page is never filled up with fic-
titious sensationalism, and when you
say you will discontinue the paper at
end of subscription and send statement
of amount due, you mean what you
say and do 1T. When your agent called
on me and said, Let us send you our
paper three months for 81, and at the
end of the three months we will stop
the paper and send you statement of

ENDORSE THE GOVERNORS VETO.

The Iowa senate seems to be In har-
mony with Governor Cummins' OBJ
jections to the Molsberry bill if the
vote of 81 to sustaining his veto of
that measure is to be taken as an in
dication of its sentiment. The natural
lucid and logical arraignment of the
obnoxious features of the bill have had
their effect upon legislative body
which recorded but seven votes against
the measure when on It's passage, but
sustained his veto almost unanimously.
There have been ugly whisperings
turnout the state in connection with
the strong support accorded this bill
by the upper house, but its action yes
terday will do much to remove sus-
picion and renew the confidence of the
Iowa people in the integrity of it's
legislators
But the legislature is still on trial
To do we'll once is insufficient, tho
fruits meet for repentance must con-
tinue to thrive. The railroad, lobby
has a new merger bill UP its sleeve,
and the railroad lobby never dies and
never surrenders. 1t can not afford
to. It viii embody the principles OF
the vetoed measure in the new one and
lend every energy to press it's passage.
Until the new bill meets the fate of
its predecessor the present legislature
will lack the full sanction and con-
fidence Of the people 1t is popularity
supposed to represent. Yesterdays
vote was highly complimentary to
Governor Cummins and thoroughly
satisfactory to the average voter, but
it should be followed by continued

by WAY OF CONTRAST.

John w. Foster Is diplomat OF WlQe
experience and extended service. AS
an ex-secretary of state and as an ex-
minister to Russia, to Spain and Mexi-
co at different periods. and as special
diplomatic agent in other fields, he Is
competent to speak with knowledge
and wisdom of matters OF international
interest. In the April Atlantic he traces
the successive steps of Pan-American
diplomacy, showing the efforts of ma
tons of the western hemisphere to
come together in amicable intcrna-
tional relationships. At first he notices
that the efforts of the United States
were at the outset regarded with dis
trust by the American nations
and that this gradually gave way to a
! better understanding and to a more
fraternal feeling when our motives and
purpose were comprehended. But 1t is
& not the purpose of the T.-R. at this
time to refer so much to his observa-
lions on this subject, as to notice a
point incidentally made by Mr.. Foster
in contrasting the differing attitudes
of the United States and Great Britain
as to the proposed isthmian canal and
the Suez canal. On this subject Mr..
Foster says:
1.-THE construction of an isthmian in
teroceanic canal has an important i'ela-
ton to the other American republics,
and more especially those thru whose
4 territory it may pass. For half a CEN
fury our government has been ham
pered In the realization of this great
enterprise by treaty relations with
Great Britain; but having released it
self from European embarrassments, it
is now addressing itself to perfecting
satisfactory arrangements with the
countries Of Central America in or adj
jacent to which the canal may be To-
Gated. It proposes to construct the
canal at Its exclusive cost, taking all
the risks of it's practicability and
profit, and upon completion to throw it
open to the commerce of the world on
terms of equality. Notwithstandin
the assumption Of these burdens, ii
proposes to pay to the government thru

ALrRuIsM IN BUSINESS.

a Mr. Vrooman is buying out stores
stitutions, combining as he says, senti-
ment and business. The movement is
well under way at Trenton, Mo-. and Mr..
vrooman states he has million dollars
in sight with which to continue this
campaign of education.
For a campaign of education is all
that Mr.. Vrooman is claiming for his
experiment at present. 1t is not his
hope or purpose to accumulate wealth
largely thru the private ventures he has
made cooperative but to combine hui
mainly with business" He recognizes
the sentimental side of life and desires
to teach by means of practical and
successful object lesson that money is
not the only force in the world.
Not long since great corporation,
the Merchants National bank of Chi
Germ. The officers of the corporation
called each employee, from the cashier
to office boy, to the presidents desk
and presented him with an envelope.
These envelopes contained various
sums ranging between $50 for the Office
boy, to $4,000 for the cashier. Their
wages had been paid, the bank owed
them nothing but good will but this
simple sentimental recognition of
faithful service resulted in the distri-
button among its departing employees of
$780, 900 by the corporation. 1t was one
of the instances that disprove the alle-
cation that corporations have no soul.
It was the mixing of bushes with SEN
timent.
In a recent editorial the Times Re-
publican made mention of the profit
sharing plans of the Metropolitan street
railway of New York, system that

lilies. Railroads are inaugurating the
old age pension system and dozens of
the greater concerns are recognizing
the humanity of the employee and de-
parting in one way or another from the
rigid and mechanical commercialism
that grasps without remorse and holds
without regret. Carnegie's work and
liberality are bearing fruit for him his
great steel corporation could never
have produced. In thousand ways
and from every direction sentiment is
creeping into business. There seems to
be dawning an era of altruism in BUSH
ness when the employer and employed
will grow closer together thru recog-
milton of the common humanity of
each.
Mr.. Vrooman's plan may be a failure.

Employed. If petty jealousies, envy and
lunger for another's place find root in

re of the scheme is pre- ordained. But

acapacity of the average laborer for
cooperation, will not detract from Mr..
