The Iowa supreme court decided last

The Iowa supreme court decided last
Thursday that in certain cases ballots
can be counted for all persons for whom
the voter desired to vote when he
marked the circle at the head of one
ticket and the square in front of the
name of the candidate on another ticket.
In this contest over the Iowa county
clerkship certain voters marked the
circle at the head of the prohibition
ticket and the square in front of the
name of republican candidate for clerk.
There was no county ticket in the pro-
hibition column so the courts hold that
the prohibition ticket shall be counted
in full, and also the vote for the republi.
can county officer. Itis also held that
marking the squares and the circle both
has no effect on the ballot, which must
be counted.

The ways and means committee of the
Iowa house has decided to report favor:
ably the Head bill which makes 10 per
cent of the earnings OF the workmen
subject to levy for debt. Lawyers are
back of This bill for there is money in it
for them iflt should pass. All indica-
tions are to the effect that the fight in
the legislature over the proposed law
will be bitter one. The exemption
laws of the state were made in spirit
of humanity and for the purpose Of balk-
ing sharks to encourage workingmen to
contract debts which there was little
probability that they would be able to
pay without crippling themselves and
their families.

THE PREVALENCE OF SMALLPOX

In London, according to the Saturday
Review, there have been this winter
1000 cases of smallpox, and the spread
of the dreaded malady has led the
doctors to renew their battle against
the antivaccinationists. On Aug. IL,
1898, the British Compulsory Vaccina-
ton act was after years Of bitter strife
amended to except children whose par
ents "conscientiously believe yaccina-
ton prejudicial' to their health. The
law is difficult to interpret, but under its
provisions 23O,l47 children were ex.
empted within six months, and to these
and subsequent exemptions physicians
attribute in part the spread of the dis
ease. London Outlook says medical
reports infer that May or June may be
the worst month, thus menacing the
success OF the coronation festivities, and
Londoners are quite generally taking
out smallpox insurance policies.
In France vaccination is not compul.
sorry. Every child in Germany must be
vaccinated before it is twenty months
old and again in its twelfth year if it is
a pupil in school. American Medicine
claims that in France, "as conse.
quence, epidemics of smallpox are Of
frequent occurrence" but are 'practi-
cally impossible in Germany since the
enactment of the law of 1874"
There is in the United States no uni.
form law governing vaccination, but
boards of health enforce the rule that
every pupil in school must be vaccinat-
ed. And there is no such opposition to
compulsory vaccination as in Great
Britain compelled the passage of the
"coEscientious belief" act of 1898, Toe
increase of cases in and around New
York suggests the need of stringent re-
pressive measures here.-New York

ANOTHER JUDGE.

Senator Mardis, of Wayne county,
has introduced bill in the senate to
provide for third judge in the third
Iowa judicial district. 1t should be
pass;d promptly and become a law, As
1t Is now, the two Judges have been ops
pressed with work. Courts have been
hurried and prolonged beyond reason
able time in order to clear the dockets
and keep up with the business. The
urgency Of the business required that
the judges should carry much of the
work home with them and toll over it in
the hours usually devoted to rest and
recreation. Even the supposed vaca.
tions of these Judges have been largely
spent in hard exhausting work on judi
cial problems. 1t turns out in the end
that these men have no real vacations.
1t Is one continual grind year in and
year out. 1t is too much and should
not be expected or required. AS the
years have passed, legal business has
grown in quantity and Importance.
The law burden of to-day is far greater
than that Of twenty or thirty years. ago.
Changes should be made in order to
suit the changing conditions. Once two
men could do it and not be oppressed
but now it trequires the full time and
powers Of three good men. Judges
Towner and Tedford did wonders in
disposing of the accumulated business
of the district but it has required SUI
preme effort, both of body and mind.
Judge Tedferd fell sick and resigned.
No doubt the sickness was brought on,
and aggravated by excessive labors.

The Iowa legislature. which is now in
session, will pass divorce law intended
to prevent the easy and cheap destruc-
ton of such marriage relations as are

remarks the Chicago Chronicle. A pend
ing bill which will become law pro-
vides that citizens coming from other
states shall not secure divorces in Iowa
except for causes which would authorize
a divorce in the state from which the
applicants removed. 1t is granted for
causes originating before the applicants
became residents Of Iowa and qualiied
to sue in its courts. All restrictions on
the system of easy and cheap divorces
are in the interest of public morality and
decency.

COUNT THE COST BEFORE SUING

Each recurring session of the district
court has before it number of cases
that could and should be adjusted out
side Of the court. Many of them are of
the nature of dlsagreements between
neighbors and the original differences
are small. After going through the
courts for several times, the expenses
are often much larger than the original
amounts in question. 1t is not infre-
quent that in the end the costs are
ass .ssed against both.parties in the suit,
and their losses are greater than any
possible gain. Going to law is an ex-
pensive business and should be resorted
to onlysafter all other means have been
used to settle the difficulty.
The manner in which some suits are
brought, their nature and prosecution,
carrying them through many courts, is
commentary on human nature. One
is picture Of the petty meanness in
men. A trifle is at stake, but rather
than give up that trifle, he is willing to
i
bring it into the courts for adjudication.
Another reveals the prominent charac-
ter of the Anglo Saxon race, the love Of
contest. 70 vanquish one who differs
with us is greater than the difference
between us. Again. the bull dog tena-
city of some is made apparent. Once a
m utter is brought up forladiudicatlon in
the courts, that man will not let it stop
until he has invoked every legal author
ity to gain his point. The cost becomes
of little moment; he wants to win. And
SO in many ways the court is revealel
ofshuman nature.

THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE.

The occasional departure of Governor
White for his farm at Litchville,
causes the observation that in addition
to a good legislative career, and a
splendid military record, Governor
White is also a genuine and successful
farmer. AS chief executive of the
state he has devoted his personal at
tention to the affairs of his Office and
about the only vacations he has had
have been spent in directing his farm
affairs. Governor White may not ex-
eel in brilliancy the executives of other
states-he may not have been as prom
inent in twin city circles as some gov
rnors we have had; he may have
made mistakes-who of his critics have
not-and he may not have developed
to an abnormal degree the elements
of personal popularity or individual
magnetism. but he is a safe. conserva-
tive conscientious official and that
counts a little, Notwithstanding the un-
just system of political bookkeeping
adopted by republican leaders here and
there.

MACARONI WHEAT.

The state department of agriculture

ter from NJ. A. Carleton, government
cerealist at Washington. D. c., stating
that he expects to be in the state this
summer, to make some Investigations
relative to the adaptability Of the soil
to the growth of macaroni wheat. and
it is probable that a government ex-
perimental plot will be selected some
where in the western part of the state
for tests of macaroni wheat growth.
The government has made an appro-
priation for experiments with this
wheat and the department of agricul-
ture will make tests accordingly. Mr..
Carleton states that he believes the
soil of the Missouri slope is especially
adapted to the growth of the wheat.

Conferees in charge of the agricultural
appropriation bill have agreed on an
appropriation of $4,000 for the bu-
reau of plant industry for the next
fiscal year. This is a bureau which
has been conducting experiments in
the growing of macaroni wheat and it
was proposed to spend considerable in
this branch of investigation next year.
The house provided 100000 and the
senate increased it to $125,O0 The
amount agreed upon was a compromise
between the two houses. Senator
Hansbrough, who is a member of the
conference committee. insisted on the
senate amount in the interest of the
