market ever knew. Population is in
creasing With marvellous rapidly. and
this forces large cultivation of land.
Moreover, farmers are constantly be-
coming Well to do. Possibly In some
parts of the country lands are selling
for more than the annual profit per
acre would seem to warrant. But even
in such cases the land may have 4
sentimental value that can scarcely be
discussed in terms of dollars and cents.
A home is a home. and broad acres
about ones home adds to the pride of
possession. In general lands have
shown great appreciation yet in many
localities they are still cheap when 1t
is considered that they produce as
profitable or more profitable crops than
lands that are very much higher In
value. The land movement Is an adj
justment movement the same as water
seeking its level. There has been too
great disparity in the selling values
of lands that intrinsica1ly are worth
the same. 1t is only in obedience TO
natural law that the selling value OF
the cheaper land in the United States
continues TO rise,

WEALTH AS A PEAcEmAKER.

War, which was the sport of kings.
has changed masters and Is governed
by the masters of finance. Kings make
war no more without the consent of the
money lenders. The temple of Janus
has changed to a bank vault and Its
doors are guarded by a combination
and a time Jock. The slangy adage
which teaches the necessity of money
to the purchase OF strong drink may
be properly paraphrased into st takes

cries "Havoc!" and lets loose the dogs
Of war
A few days ago dispatches from the
east foreshadowed immediate war be-
tween Russia and Japan. Both were
ready to fight But the British and
French money kings refused to loan a
dollar for war purposes. Russia de-
ponds largely upon France for her
loans and Japan borrows of Great

were ready to loan money to be used
in peace. hut,refused to finance a. war.
Perhaps the men with money to loan
had no thought of preventing bloody
war when they refused. Money loaners
are not notably a1truistic. but they
knew war Is an expensive and losing
xame and refused to risk their money
IN its event. Philanthropy aside, this
was common sense and postponed If 1t
has not prevented death struggle be-
tween nations. And the world to which
war is always calamity need not In
quire too closely into the motive. 1t is
a pity that nations are not wise with
the wisdom OF the money changers.

results obtained from the workings OF
the present inebriate law have entirely
justified the legislature which passed
1t and placed the question of state

forcement and inherent Weaknesses the
system may be pronounced successful
| 1t has redeemed drunkards and made
good citizens of men who had become
parasites and public nuisances. Aside
from amy altruistic feature the law may
possess The self interest of the state
pleads irnperatively for continuation OF
the system.
As the, Journal points out the in
ebriate is not necessarily criminal
There are hundreds of men gone wrong
with drink who desire their own re-
generation as devoutly as does the pub
lie While yet lacking the will to take
the initiative and perhaps too poor II
patronize private sanitarums. These
men are not beyond redemption and de-
serve consideration. There is
another class of drunkards. however.
which approaches closely to the
criminal. 1t is these semi criminals
satisfied in their degradation, living up
on the labor of their wives or upon
charity whose sentence should be semi
penal. Il is these who have brought
the law into disrepute by refusing the
helping hand proffered them by the
state and returning to dissipation at
the earliest opportunity.
The law is good one but it needs
amendment. The incorrigible should
be punished. 1t is well not to pity over
much The inebriate should under
stand that his sentence was not based
on pure altruism, but that the state de-
mands his reformation as its right and
lacking effort on his part is ready
to chastise as we'll as assist. He should
be set work when he has attempted
to escape or broken his parole and in
cases where his labor is necessary to
the support of his family it should re-
ceive his earnings. Summer camps
and the necessity of road improve
ment furnish exceptional opportunity
for the employment of these men at
out of door work. where their physical
health will not suffer Six months at
hard labor will teach the average in

Iowa is not ready to repeal it's in

en- it. 1t is in the line of good govern
ment 1t has accomplished quite as
much as was expected of it. It's oper-
alton has shown its weakness as well
as its strength. With proper and sem
sibie amendment and a sincere effort
toward enforcement it will prove itself
one of the wisest acts of legislation on
the statute books of Iowa.

OF self made patients? If they are crinl-
inals and it is proposed to restrict their
liberty we have our penitentiary. where
they can be put at the hard labor they

To this the Sioux City Journal replies
In effect that the state is not making a
drunkards' home but a reformatory in
stitute; that inebriates are not neces-
sarily criminal or insane but sufficient
~ weak of will and diseased to re-
quire restraint and treatment.

adopts the theory that the inebriate's

RAISING PRICE OF NEWSPAPERS.

For many years thc Des Moines
News has been the conspicuous chea,
paper of Iowa, selling at 81 per year
for daily issue. Naturally, its circu-
lation grew enormously and it soon
became evident that the advertiser
gould not be forced to pay the balance
Of cost when fast presses began to eat
up paper at the rate OF 10000 copies
per day. A Sunday edition was added
and the price raised to $3.50 per year,
but still the cost was too great for the
Advertiser to bear. and the News now
advertises that its price will be raised
to 50.
Heretofore the News has been Civ
ing its readers 81 worth of newspaper
ana no more. Papers like the Times
Republican have sought the patronage
OF business men who want the best
newspaper published and are not
afraid of a fair price. While the News
complains of q rise Of 20 per cent in
the price of print paper and raises its
subscription price because of it the
Times-Republtcan has endured the
Same increased demands of the same
paper trust and has increased its siza
by II per cent. or from seven to eight
columns to the page every week day in

today Is paying for special telegraph
tolls and correspondents labor for an
Iowa news service which no other
newspaper furnishes and gives its
readers In an average issue nearly
twice the number OF columns Of read
ing matter as are contained In any So
called cheap paper.
