GOV. TAFT TO CONTINUE HIS WORK.

| The determination of Governor Taft
to remain in the Philippines as civil
governor rather than to accept the jus
ticeship of the supreme court of the
United States indicates a sacrifice, of
ambition and desire to continue in a
useful sphere such as few would make.
The almost universal voice of the peo-
pie of the islands, asking him to re-
services that is alone based upon his
broad minded fairness of action. His
present position is an exalted one and
the record he is making and the prece-
dents he is establishing as an executive
will leave an impress upon the Filipinos
that will do much toward establishing
good government. In what better place
could the government in crucial stage
employ a man of great judicial talents ?
In what better role could Governor Taft
win the plaudits of the nation? He is
certainly accomplishing a great work
where he is. AS one high official ex
presses 1t, he is known ito be thor
oughly wrapped up in his work in the
Philippines" thus indicating that his
heart and mind are absorbed in his eff
fort to mold the masses In the island
in the direction of good government and
high ideals of life. The public for this
reason will be thoroughly satisfied to
allow Governor Taft to remain in his
present position. His promotion to the
supreme bench may come later. and all
the experience he is now acquiring VIII
only the better fit him for the exalted
position.

senA1nRlAL CLOGS.

It Is fortunate for the country and for
tba Tinted States senate itself that the
present and closing session OF the flfts-
seventh congress, which terminates
with the opening of March, urges the
need of action. With month ana a
half vet remaining to dispose of impor-
tant measures, the proverbiai slowness
Of this body needs an incentive to use
its time to the advantage of the nation.
II is stated from Washington that
conges tion and confusion exists in the
upper house that is almost indescriba-
BILE. Chief in the line of clogs is the
omnibus statehood bill which it is the
determination of the Quay forces to
carry thru if possible. For weeks this
measure has dragged along, and the
senate chamber has been emptied as
the opponents of it have begun their
tedious addresses. Up to the close of
the week Senator Knute Nelson, OF
Minnesota. had spoken four days and
had not completed his arguments. SEN
ator Peveridge has already announced
that there are about fifteen other sena-
tors who desire to talk against the
measure, and moreover resort to the
tactics OF obstruction, such as fire.
auent raising of the. question of no
quorum, has further delayed progress
this week. All this has thoroughly en-
ragged the friends of the bill. and with
Senator Quay in charge there is not the
slightest likelihood of the statehood bill
being shelved without vote. In the
meantime the militia bill is dragging
along in the morning hour. and the
general staff bill, which has passed the
house, must come up presently to add
to the congestion, ana soon the great
appropriation bills must be considered.
Those interested in Cuban reciprocity
and trust legislation fear the ohstruc-
tons thrown in the way may defeat
these measures 1t is for this reason
that President Roosevelt is urging ac-
ton and is interesting himself in re-
moving tbs clogs that may interfere
with the adoption of bills he desires to
see enacted into law. With his power
to call an extra session he may succeed
in so irnpressing the senate that action
will be FASTENED, as all the people will
sincerely hope may be accomplished.

IOWA NEWSPAPERS.
THE VAN wAGENEN ISSUE.
dubuque Times.l

l
| Because Judge Van Wagenen, of
Sioux City, has been proposed as the
democratic candidate for governor the
lpress of the state is giving some promi-
hence to his speech at the Jackson day
banquet at Waterloo in which he adj
yocated government ownership of rail-
roads. The republican press especially
welcomes the new idea into the field
OF partisan debate. 1t is not a new
idea at all but an old third party idea,
endorsed by the Bryan democracy in
1896.
If the Cleveland element regains
control Of the party in 1904 government
ownership of railroads will be no part
of its program. Any popularity that Is
sue may gain meanwhile will be at the
expense OF the conservative elements
strength in the democratic organization
or before the people. In state cam
paign government ownership OF rail-
roads can not be forced into prominence
and it is not question on which the
democracy of the nation can get to-
gether.
The nomination of Judge Van Wag-
enen for governor this year on plat
form declaring for government owner
ship of railroads would be considered a
victory for the Bryan democracy and
for this reason the event is not likely
to occur. The Cleveland democrats
got the Bryan men down last year and
they intend to keep them down.
washington Press.l
Our ex-A. Van Wagenen, tired of
Organism, wants the democrats to run
him for governor this year, on plat
form, not of silver, but OF state owner
ship of railroads.
Great scheme! We don't know how
much our roads are worth, but they
would run way up high in the millions.
When Van gets the state bonded for
enough to buy them, taxes will be high
err than the tower of Babel. And the
people would fling him from the top OF
1t.
Or does he mean to have Uncle Sam
buy them?
1t would be sillier issue than Is to l.

AN EDITORIAL sYLLoGlsm.

The sum and substance of Senator
Delivers contention is that the men
who drafted the Dingley bill first fig
ured schedules that were absolutely
needed to protect American industries
which they called a minimum tarlff
and then raised the rates above this
point with a provision included au-
thorizing the president and senate to
negotiate reciprocal treaties reducing
these schedules 90 per cent in return
for tariff concessions in foreign mar
kets VIM. Mckinley, who was pres
|ident at the time, was consulted con-
stantly and understood fully the in
tent of the trainers of the bill. He
Immediately sent John A. kasson
abroad to negotiate reciprocal treaties
with the 90 per cent margin as trad
ing stock The treaties were made
with distinguished ability and success
but the special representatives Of pro-
|tected interests occupying seats in the
United States senate have persistently
refused to allow these treaties to come
to a vote. President Roosevelt sing
led out the treaty with Cuba, which the
honor of this government was pledged
to ratify, and carried his fight to the
people before he could win, and still the
senate has succeeded up to this time
in eyading action. This it was that
caused Dolliver to go after his coll
leagues. The interesting phase of the
performance however Is the dead calm
it has produced in Iowa's recent
storm of stand pat editorials. LATE
Young finds "after careful reading"
that Dolliver is in full accord" with
the Cummins' tariff views. The Hawk
eye discreetly says nothing and the
Cedar Rapids Republican adroitly adj
mits that the Dingley law did make
specific arrangements. for the devel-
opment of reciprocity, but that it does
not follow that the Kasson treaties
are arranged adYantageously to the
United States. No one attempted to
deny that Dingley. the Dingley bill,
Mckinley, the Kasson treaties and
Dolliver are all in entire accord as to
reciprocity and protection. Delivers
presentation of the situation was un-
answerable. Now LATE Young admits
that Dolliver is in full accord" with
the Cummins' tariff views and the
thought suggests itself that apologies
and retraction of those charges of
dangerous free trade doctrine" are
in order. II Dingley. Mckinley, Dol
liver, and Cummins are in full ac-
cord why not concede to Cummins
and the Iowa platform full republican
standing?

Peculia1ities Of People
Written for the Times-Republican

Reader, did you ever hear of a Don't
Knock" Club? You probably think
that is some sort of an anti-tist club.
That is what supposed until learned
all about the Mother Society at Buffalo,
N. Y. 1t is known as the Order of
Don't Knock" and originated from the
suicide Of a young woman who was
driven to the act by the malicious
tongue of idle gossip.
There is in Chicago, similar organ
ization known as the Booster Club
Its object is to boost up people and
things by always saying something
nice about them.a
The Don't Knock Club" doesn't COM
|pel you to say something nice, but it
docs forbid you saying anything bad
about people. It's motto is, If you
can't boost, don't knock'-i. e., don't
speak i'll of people. The one is a
positive, the other, negative form OF
goodness. Here are some of its prin-
ciples found in the club book.
1--WE believe the practice of speak
ing i'll OF our fellow men. otherwise
Knocking is detestable. unbrotherly.
and uncharitable.
1--WE believe it our duty to conceal
the imperfections Of our fellows, pro-
vided their actions are not of great
menace to the welfare OF the COM
munity, and do all we can by pre-
cept and example to show them where
In they err.
I'VE believe that many lives are ru-
,ned daily. that many hearts are made
miserable, and many men and women
are driven to desperation by the de-
|spicable practice Of knocking.
1--WE believe the influences OF hered-
|ity. environment and circumstances
make most men what they are, and that

capital. If forced to do SO you can build
packing plants of your own. kill your
own stock market the product and I'M
dersell any packing house trust. We
have men outside this charmed circle
who have money, brains and energy,
and with these three they also have
hearts left in their physical anatomy.
Let us pronounce sentence that If
this merger is consummated, it can op-
crate its s50O,OOOOOO merger without
cattle, without sheep and without hogs,
for we own the raw material and we
will refuse to sell to any packing house
combine.
"The American stockman loves fair
play above everything else. We are
advocates of equal and exact justice
to rich and poor alike. Our daily song
is with the poet who sang: He prayeth
best. he loveth best, both man and bird
and beast"
One of the keenest critics of the pro-
posed trust legislation expressed the
belief recently that there was too much
reliance placed upon restrictive meas
ures to curb action rather than relying
upon other great corporations that may
be created to enter the competitive
field and thus to effect a restraining
influence upon prices. such as President
Springer proposes in the above threat
of combine to down combine. Con-
certed action among The people looking
to this end might aid in such solution.
