No Harmony Without Z Fight.

l looSQOal SuEOulCie.I
The Des Moines Capital, Iowa City
Republican, and other political enemies
OF Governor Cummins. are censuring
the Chronicle because it said that the
only way to secure harmony In the re-
publican ranks in Iowa was to declare
war on the men who are assailing the
republican platform and the reuubli-
can candidate for governor.
The Chronicle stands by Its guns
and reiterates its, declarat ton Govern
or Cummins. Senator Allison, Senator
Dolliver. and their supporters have
done everything possible to secure par
ty harmony. Every Cummins polfti-
clan in Iowa buried his hatchet and
agreed to cease hostilities when the
last convention was held. Even after
Bob Cousins and John F. Lacey public
" spat upon the platform and as
sailed the candidates, the Cummins re-
publicans kept quiet. What was the
result?
The standratters have been more
bitter and insulting than ever since tho
convention was held. They have lost
no opportunity to assail Governor Cum
minis, and recently, thru their tools on
the state committee sought to publicly
insult him. The Manchester Pross,
the Cedar Rapids Republican. the
Burlington Hawkeye, the Iowa City
Republican. the Des Moines Capital
and other organs of Cousins and Lac
ey, have been more virulent right along
in their opposition to Governor Cum
Minis and the republican platform than
the democratic press.

loyal to the ticket and the platform
are expected to keep silent. The stand-
patters are free to give blows. but they
saueal when countared. They would
like to suppress an opposition which
represents three -tourths OF the repub-
lican voters of Iowa. It Is needless 70
say that they can't do It. The Chron-
icle believes that these organs and thedr
hackers are disloyal to republican prin-
ciples and republican candidates. Il
believes that men like Bob Cous4nS ans
John F. Lacey, care more about getting
campaign contributions out OF the steel
trust than they care for the welfare
Of Iowa republieanism; and It hopes
that their constituents will refuse them

The Chronicle Is for harmony and
always has been, But It doesn't believe
that harmony can be attained by per-
mitting factious minority to assail
the republican platform and tho head
Of the ticket unrebuked. In politics
nothing is gained by turning the other
cheek. It is often necessary to do up
the assailant before peace can be re-
stored, and that appears TO be the situ-
alton Just now in Iowa.

The story is told that a farmer down

The story is told that farmer down
east marketed a load Of swine to d
purchaser Of livestock who had a rep
utation of possessing the most partial
set OF wagon scales in the community
The farmer weighed his wagon and
load Of live pork, obtained the weight
and then unloaded the product. He re-
turned to weigh the empty wagon. so
as to determine what the net weight
Of the hogs would be. When he re-
ceived the weights he compared them
with the gross weight and found that
he had lost money by bringing the
swine to market--that the empty wag-
on weighed more than the wagon. hogs
and all had weighed when the first
weight was received, and that he owed
the lealer something.
Without studying the subject to de-
|termine the probable cause OF the
shrinkage, he remarked to the man
whose scales had skinned him out of
his pork:
Tell me. quick as yer kin, mister,
what I owe you, and next time won't
be darn fool enough to bring the hogs
to teown when the market is fallin'."
