more brushed aside, and every man. busily
occupied with his own interests, was taught
to antagonize them to the interests of

natural was Il that the steel combine bred

should, in the recent strike, make no vindi-
cation Of policy, no appeal to the public,
show none of that decent respect for the

tend the power the public had conceded to
it. The temper was, let those workmen

tion the less because we fare the largest

"One of the surprises in the development
of our national life has been the spirit of
private appropriation as opposed to the

lation which aimed. at an equal division of
advantages, as in the restricted sale Of pub
lie lands, has been bafled in every variety
of method. Lands which were devoted TO
public education became the prey of the
land grsbber. The policy of private thrift,
which gained such foothold in protection,
has spread everywhere. Our railroads have
been left in the hands Of corporations for
narrow aud personal uses Private prop
erty has grown UP in our streets and high
ways, and the commercial opportunities
which have been the fruit of our common
enterprise have been converted into per-
sOual possessions. The indirect evils Of
protection have far exceeded its direct
evils. A temper has been engendered
which has respected no public claim and

"cussedness" which attends inanimate OBJ
jects these bitches always come at the most
iuopportun- situation when there is a large
amount of money in the ring, and a mistake
is almost fatal. Another equally important
rock is the dead heat Here comes a race
when a win is the turning point in the
series. The price is below even money
the face amount of the entire transaction is
divided, and although the punter actually
wins his wager he loses money on the race.
These are the main reasons why so few
people play favorites.

proximate his horses chances under vary

Another curious plan is to go over the last
four races of each horse and add together
the prices quoted against them thus to S,
8 to 5, } to and s toI These are averaged
out mathematically. and the horse whose
total has the smallest amount is played to
get third, or whatever even money can be
obtained. Although this method has many
long runs of losers it has strong lunches Of
consecutive winners and its extraordinary
long shots are something to marvel at. The
basis of this method-unsuspected by those
who use it's that the horse Is really better

Love Of Country Is Being Destroyed
by PrOtectionism.
Prof. John Bascom, of Williams College,
contributes an able article on the protection
fetch in which he claims that it is destruc-
tive of patriotism. He says in part:
The fullest, 6rmest expression OF ma
tional strength is patriotism All other
gains include themselves in this one mag
ni6cent product Free institutions, Il de-
velOped along their true lines Of growth,
especially favor patriotism. If turned aside
from the public welfare. they are especially
iuimical to il. The sense of justice, of
civic conditions essentially the same for all
under the public veal, Is the foundation Of
love Of country. Inequality Of opDortu-
mites, the grasping temper Of the strong,
are most unfavorable TO that good will
which should incite men in pursuing their
common welfare.
"Protectionism as developed in the
United States is profoundly opposed TO

GETS SIXTEEN YEARS.
Walter Anderson, Convicted of Rape,
Given Long Sentence.

~A'SSu @Sb9 SSukSiSSs
From Tuesdays Daily.J
Sixteen years in the penitentiary at
FIT Madison was the sentence passed
upon Walter Anderson late yesterday
afternoon by Judge Sloan. Anderson
was convicted Saturday, September
20, of the crime Of rape. He was
charged with causing the death of lit
tie Sylvia Angel, the young daughter
of j. M. Angel, farmer residing in
Green township. Yesterday an appli-
cation was made for a new trial on
the grounds that one of the jurors had
disobeyed the courts orders and had
talked before the trial with one of
the principal witnesses for the de-
Tense, but this could not be proved
and Judge Sloan overruled the motion
and passed sentence upon the defend
ant. Attorney w. H. G. Jaques, who
was counsel for the defense, stated
that the case would probably be taken
to the supreme court. No notice of
appeal, however, was given. The ap-
peal bond was fixed at $4,000, in de-
fault Of which Anderson was taken to
the county Jail.
Was Shameless Crime.
lie ClllIle Vi WHICH AlISl SOu Wdo
convicted was one of the most shame
less in the history of Wapello county.
The jury deliberated but four hours
before returning the verdict of guilty
as charged in the indictment. 1t will
be remembered how the convicted
man was caught in Long Beach, Cali
fornia, more than two years after he
had left his home in Green township.
Brought Back in July.
On July q, of this year, Anderson
was brought back to Ottumwa by
Sheriff Doner of Abba to answer for
the crime with which he was charged,
but was not taken to jail, as his faith
err, VIM. Anderson, deposited cash
bail Of S1.500. He regained his liberty
until yesterday when the bond was
raised to $4,000.
No New Trial.
Yesterday affidavits were intro
duced. stating that one of the jurors.
Vim. Carroll, had conversed with
Frank Hardy one Of the principal wit
nesses for the prosecution, and that
the juror also drank with Hardy,
while the trial was in progress. On
these grounds the defense asked for
"a new trial. Counter affidavits, how
ever, were produced by the state to
show that these We're incorrect. and
after listening to arguments the court
overruled the motion for the new trial
and the defendants chances for Sc.
curing new hearing in the lower
courts were at an end. Anderson is in
the county Jail temporarily. until it
has been decided whether or not the
case will be appealed to the supreme
courts and if the defense decides to
abide by the courts decision. he will
soon be taken to the penitentiary al
Fort Madison, to serve the term OF
sixteen years passed upon him by
Judge Sloan
