The WASHINGTON Press expresses its
views tersely on the speakership ques-
ton: who cares who he is. or where
he lives, provided only that he is
enough of a man not to have the office
give him the big-head. and does not
presume to be a boss and try to die
tate legislation? The speaker is pre-
siding officer only. under rules the house
a6opts and he has no business to set
himself up as a pope, and say what
bills shall come up and what shant'
There's been too much of this uppish-
ness for good while now. The speak

chine. little tin god, or god with
lin halo. Who for speaker? Any man

In regard to NJ. ]. Furry's candidacy
for the legislature the Iowa Falls Senti-
nel says: so far there is no oppose

constituency most acceptably. and it is
probable there will be no opposition to
his reelection for a third term
The Montezuma Democrat declares
"the republicans have strenuously
begged for the right and chance to
have the tariff revised by its friends!"
The people have seemed willing to make
the trial and hence voted the republic
ans a good working majority in the
next house. 1t is now up to them to
show what they can and will do in that
hne."

Finding that its insurance rates on
renewal had been raised 40 per cent,
despite the fact that the risk on its
building had been decreased, the Shen-

BONUS HUNTERS AND BUSINESS RISKS.

Being impressed with the apprehen-
sion that Waterloo may not fare as well
as she hopes in securing six new manu-
featuring establishments thru the offers
of bonuses, the Davenport Democrat re-
Gently warned the city against bonus
hunters, saying that after being es-
fablished they are ready to entertain
proposition from almost every other
town that viii do a little better The
Waterloo Reporter takes this up TO
comment upon it. 1t admits that so far
as general principles are concerned no
objection can be made to the views ex-
pressed by the Davenport paper and
that Waterloo has had her fill of such
experiences. However, it thinks that
awhen it comes to the new industries
which are to be secured by Waterloo,
thru the sale of $4,000 worth of lots.
that is quite different matter"
The chief point made by the Water
loo paper, and one to which other places
should give due heed, is found in this
statement by the Reporter: "The char
acter, business standing and general
reliability of the men now in charge of
the various industries which are to be
secured for Waterloo have been fully
investigated by men who are fully COM
petent to Judge of such matters. More
3 ~, having fha
management Of these Industries are to
be reorganized and controlling inter-
est. of the stock in each concern has
been secured by Waterloo men. of bust
ness ability, with successful experience
in the management of large manufac-
turing enterprises, and who are by rea-
son of other investments and business
relationships thoroughly identified with
the prosperity of the city. These men
Will not see the industries which they
control diverted to other cities, however
brilliant the inducements that may be
offered. While a considerable amount
of outside capital is attracted to Wa
terIoo by the advent of the six factories
secured by the chamber of commerce, a
larger amount of home capital is going
into the same institutions. Every one
of the factories is doing a successful
business in its present location. In
coming to Waterloo it will enlarge its
scale of operations, work with larger
capital and ampler facilities and in a
more favorable field. These facts with
the other fact already mentioned, of the
controlling interest that Will be held by
Waterloo capitalists, insures as far as
such things can be insured the success
and permanence in Waterloo of each of
the manufacturing enterprises to which
cur city is now offering the open door
end the welcome hand"
There are other hazards more serious
than the one named. Not all these es-
Establishments will succeed up to the
expectations of their founders, nor will
they all be able to weather the strain
and storms of continuous operation
particularly If artificial conditions ex-
list. These risks probably concern the
business men engaged in the venture
more than others, yet they are shrewd
and progressive in carrying forward The
undertaking. The outlook for Water
loo is one that any city might reasona-
bly, desire.

IOWA IDEA TO BECOME NATIONAL
Davenport Republican.l

The Iowa idea is all right. No mem
Der of the republican party need shy
at 1t. The voters did not seem to dis
like 1t or fear to endorse it. AS mat
ter of fact the Iowa idea bids fair to
become national. The people have lost
none of their love for protection, but
they believe in making protection more
effective by guarding it more carefully
and eliminating certain features If they
are found not to conserve to the best
interests of the country. That is the
Iowa idea.

Two years ago Senator Spooner, Of
Wisconsin. gave out letter in which
he said that he was "unalterably deter
mined" to leave the senate when his
present term had expired and that UNI
der no circumstances would he be a
candidate for reelection. In the face
of this his friends have insisted all
along that he should be returned to the
senate, but at no time since the letter
was first given out has Senator Spoon
er intimated to his closest friends that
he would withdraw his letter or change
his ..unalterable determination" until
this week, when he met several mem
hers of the next legislature and made
arrangements for the presentation OF
his name to the legislators. 1t is prob
able that the administration prevailed
upon him to change his purpose some
time ago. as he has proven to be one
of the ablest and most active support
ers of the present government policies.
Judge Gray, of the strike commits
sion, is wise in requesting that irrele-
want matters be dropped. They should
stick to the points mainly at issue.
A report that the department of agri-
culture was offering q reward for a hog

employees. More than one Thousand
letters have been received claiming
the reward from persons who say they

writer's send the recipes for their rem
edies, but occasionally they say that
when the reward is made the recipe
for the remedy will be forthcoming,
and not until then.

simply paralyzed everything. All in
dustry in our region depends entirely
on coal mining, and when that ceases
everything else does. The railroads,
repair shops and stores are brought al
most to a standstill. The strike, how
ever, will clear the atmosphere for a
while, and it will take at least two
years to catch UP with the normal
amount of anthracite carried by deal
ers and consumers. The last big strike
of miners was in 1883, and lasted about
six months, after which the region
prospered. Coal is now being mined
rapidly, the mines are working night
and day, and the railroads are strain
ing every point to get cars and motive
power to handle it."
