A monument 10 Count John Butler,

SALE OF WEATHER PREDICTIONS

SALE OF WEATHER PREDICTIONS.
lCedar Rapids Republican,
We notice by some of the weekly pa
pers that there is brisk demand for
''almanacs" issued by professional
weather Projectors. That this should
be- borders on the ridiculous 1t shows
the universal credulity of the human
mind. The weather predictions that are
sent out by the United States govern
ment are made not more than twenty
four hours ahead, sometimes with a
suggestion as to the possible
| climatic conditions little farther
ahead. These predictions are based
upon actual observations made by
trained men and telegraphed to COM
mon oenters. If there is a storm or
cold wave moving down from the
| northwest. it is possible to figure when
| it will get to Iowa, unless it is side
tracked in transit. which sometimes
happens. Such predictions are rational
and sensible; the farmer can afford to
depend upon them
But the predictions made a year
ahead. are so much trash
There is great deal of
talk about "conjunctions." and "oppo
sition, and vulcan periods" and
Venus outbursts," which contain
enough scientific smattering to de-
ceive the credulous But none of these
predictions is worth the paper it is
printed on.
AT random we take UP one of the
forecasts. concededly the best in the
brood. We read "On and touching the
9th and 10th. look for reaction to
storm conditions-change TO warmer"
and so on. Now on the 9th and 10th
1t was decidedly not warmer, but the
mercury fell close to the freezing point
and there We're not gathering storm
conditions We examined the predic-
lions closely for month, and in every
particular they We're in error. 1t is pos
sible that some time later the predic
tons and weather may coincide. for
there are about even chances of hitting
and missing. To say that storms are
likely to come within the 10th and goth
of June is very safe; there are scarcely
ten days in any summer month when
a storm may not blow up. Any fool
can make such a prediction.

would see the control OF the steel trust
securities holding company and more
than half. or controlling share, of the
$50S, 100000 of United States Steel Cor
poration's common stock would be
owned by the steel workers of the labor
union.
OF course this is pushing argument ad
absurdum, but it suggests forcibly the
possibilities of the labor union when it
develops the same capacity in finan-
ciering that has been shown by Ameri-
can men of capital. This is the day Of
stupendous undertakings by the COM
bined strength of great numbers. 1t is
so when a life insurance company in
vests a billion dollars for several mill
ion policy holders, when savings
bank puts thousands into railway
many hundreds of small dapositors, or
when a securities company invests the
combined capital of many rich men.
Likewise is it true when thousands OF
workers quit work, demarrd terms or
accept terms at the connand of a
union leader, and so might it also be-
come day of enormous investments by
wage workers in the business for which
they are laborng should The labor union

ONE CONTEST LEFT.

The beautiful dream OF republican
test is about to be dispelled by the
growing strength Of II. l.. Adams for
superintendent of public instruction in
Barrert's own district and the persist
',ency with which j. II. Riggs, of Sigour-
rey, continues to secure Instructed del
egations for himself u seeking the
fused TO enter the race for railroad
commissioner it seemed that the last
chance for a contest in the convention
had vanished and the friends of Super
intendent Barrett so proclaimed the sit
uation. but Barrett has neld his office
three terms and there is widespread
holding, hence his opponents have been
able to gain on him. Adams will I'M
doubtedly enter the convention with
Barrett's own congressional district, the
Fourth, divided and Riggs will come up
with almost every county in his district,
the Sixth, instructed for him. This will
give Riggs a distinct advantage. but
neither Riggs nor Adams have the
statewide acquaintance that Barrett
has, which will give the present incum-
bent the advantage in rounding up out
side counties. Riggs viii be strong in
southern and eastern Iowa, Adams in
northeastern and the Fifth district
while Barrett will lead them both In
the big Tenth and Eleventh and carry
most of the Ninth district.

A CASE TOO COMMON.
Humboldt Republican,

| While at Il neighboring town recently
| the editor of this paper sat in front of
a hotel with a half dozen travelling
men waiting for a train. A young
| woman walked down the street. and
| just before passing the crowd of men,
| gathered her clothes about her, and
drew them close so as to disclose her
general form to all who cared to look
| her way. She had the action down to
| a fine point, and her person would not
| have heen more exposed had she been
dressed in tights. Soon she again pass
| ed the hotel, and again made q show of
| herself. A third time she passed and
again the skirts were drawn tightly
about her body and limbs, disclosing
every movement required in walking.
| The action was so noticeable and the
| invitation SO glazing as to cause general
comment and the supposition was
! that she was cypran, trfle better
dressed than her mates. We chance to
know The girl and know her father and
mother well. She is not bad woman;
she is simply 2. fool She is prominent
| in church work. bears good reputa-
| ton and is we'll respected. But she is
a silly fool and wants the admiration
of men, Unable to attract them by her
worth and womanly purity. she expos
ed to them what she considered charms
but what appeals to only the brute in
man. She failed to distinguish be-
| tween the pure and the impure. Prop
erly hammered she would have been a
| beautiful woman. AS she appeared she
was simply disgusting. a painting may
possess the highest marks of an art
lists skill, but If it is of degrading
nature. it cannot be beautiful IN all
that the word beautiful means. No
woman can be beautiful unless she
appears pure and good. This young
woman by her actions forfeited all
right 10 beauty. She was simply a
healthy looking animal blessed by ma
ture as other animals are blessed
Had she known it, there was hardly Il
man present that did not express his
opinion detrimental TO her character
Not one of them would have married
her had he been single, or allowed his
son to marry her, had he had son.
Not one of them would have allowed
her in their homes had she been what
she appeared TO be. Why will woman
brand herself as unfit to associate with
decent men and women, Just To see
some man turn and look after her?
Why VIII she throw away her life for
a glance? Yet you can hardly go into
., town in Iowa where you will not meet
a class of young women on the street
that are trying by voice and action to
attract attention TO themselves. They
want the admiration of men, and in
trying TO get it, they sacrifice their pur-
itv and worth, and brand themselves
unfit to associate with the very people
they try to attract. Such girls end as
the wives of drunkards and rakes. and
pass their lives in misery and want.

Mr. Hearst is in earnest in his presi-

he could control the delegations from
Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota and
incidentally have a profitable newspa- :
per property. While his candidacy is
treated as A joke, 1t at least serves to
advertise his newspapers and that is
something. It is to be hoped, however,
