UNFAIR NEWSPAPERS.

The labor unions have way when a
manufacturer does not do the right
thing, of pronouncing him "unfair."
If some of the newspapers of Iowa are
not more careful they are in danger of
being classified in the came way. 1t is
pitiful to see brainy, thinking man
allow himself to become so prejudiced
that he can see no good in those to
whom he has taken personal dislike.
The old Leader was an eminently ''un-
fair" paper. The Sioux City Journal
although brilliantly edited also comes
into this class. We believe if Lot
Thomas we're to die and go to Heaven
the Journal would Immediately set
about trying to secure advertising con
tracts for transportation to the lower
regions. Senator A. B. Funk one of
the giants of Iowa journalism is ap-
preaching dangerously near the line of
unfairness and there are by far too
many others on the list. These papers
destroy their own influence for their
readers know that they must have
their salt cellar handy when they read
the editorial comment, We do Lot
blame any man or any newspaper for
standing by its friends but standing by
friend does not include utter blind
ness to his mistakes or to the good
points of those opposed to him. AL
though rather young to set up in the
Mentor business we would still urge
our friends to be more considerable in
their utterances 80 that it may be said
of them, "they were strong able and
fair antagonists.

The new law for the suppression of
intemperance is good one and If put
in force will reduce the mum Der of cases
OF drunkenness even in love at Ell.
dora two men were arrested aud sent
to the asylum, and dispatch from
that town says that the lesson has had
a wholesome effect upon the topers Of
that place. When a person is found
intoxicated he can be arrested, taken
before the judge of the district court,
and if convicted sent to the insane
asylum for not less than one year,
where he will be placed in ward for
inebriates. The application Of the law
would produce beneficial resalts in
most places. 1t might be good thing
to try.

Macarthur Announces Rules of
Coming War Game.
10 FIGHT ON LAND ANc sEA
Scheme is to illustrate Repulse Of
Hostile Fleet Details Will Be
Faithful to Actual conditions-War.
like About the Forts.

New York, Aug. 26.-Mator General
Macarthur made public the text Of
the rules agreed upon for the coming
army and navy maneuvers. The whole
scheme is based upon the assumption
that in expectation of a declaration Of
hostilities a strong hostile feet, with
out torpedo boats, determines to make
a sudden dash on the eastern entrance
of Long Island sound, to secure nav
al base, in the expectation of finding
the land forces, in the absence of
declaration of war, In a somewhat I'M
prepared condition. The periods of
the maneuvers are to be divided into
two distinct phases-period of prepa.
ration and period of hostilities. Dur
ing the first it is decided there shall
be a day attack and night attack
by the feet, and if possible a lombard
ment and the enforcement of a pas
sage. During this mines and obstruc.
lions may be planted by the defense,
and the conditions Of war are to be
followed as closely as possible.
On the part of the army the infor.
nation to be gained relates to the gen.
eral efficiency of all that appertains
to the construction and armament of
the land defenses and the training of
the forces manning them. The navy
will concern itself with the best
means of obtaining ranges, the effect
Of mines and distractions, forming of
attack, search lights and the general
control Of artillery fire. Umpires of
both services will be detailed to all
forts and ships, and will report to
board of arbitrators of five officers,
whose judgment will be final.
The period Of preparation will be
from midnight, Aug. 20, to midnight,
Aug. 81, the period Of hostilities ex.
tending from the latter hour to noon
Sept. 6. The defense will consist Of
Forts Rodman, Adams, Wetherill,
Greble, Mansfield, Wright, Niche,
Terry and the fort on Gardners
Point. The attack will consist of
about fifteen ships. of which five will
rank as battleships and the rest as
cruisers and gunboats.
