A SQUARE DEAL FOR THE NEGRO

New York Evening Post: "a square
deal" for the negro was the burden
of President Rooseyelt's speech at the
tomb of Abraham Lincoln 1nspira-
ton might well have come to him from
that mighty shade. And thickening
events are certainly hurrying on the
issue. The new slave driving in Ala
bama has pricked the conscience of
the nation. 1t is perceived that this re-
vived oppression of the negro has gone
hand in hand with the attempts to de-
priye him of that sure defense of the
freeman in a democracy-the ballot.
Once make men politically voiceless
and unrepresented and they are easy
game for the oppressor. Hardly sig
nificant in this connection, is that
plank of the Ohio platform which de-
clares for equity everywhere in the
exercise of the elective franchise, with
the enforcement of the constitutional
penalties upon those states which vio-
late it. This is one form of the square
deal" for the negro to which it is the
nations Immediate business to attend.
The Ohio utterance maks the revival
of human rights with the equality OF
all men before the law, as political
issue of the first magnitude. 1t may
easily swallow all the other issues. Ed
ucation and the suffrage lie at the foun-
dation of our institutions and We must
work for both. The doctrine OF giving
each child its school was indissolubly
linked by the fathers of this republic
with that other doctrine-"each honest
man shall have his vote"

to employ the most skillful engineers

their destructiveness to the minimum.

ASK THE FARMER.


Burlington Hawk-Eye: Referring to
Pennsylvania and Iowa in their rela--
ton to the tariff, the Dubuque Tele--
graph Herald (dem.) says that half
what the farmer pays is eXtortion; it
is the shelter the tariff affords monop-
oily" The Hawk-Eye would like to
ask this democratic champion of the
so-called Iowa idea to enumerate the
articles for which the Iowa farmer
pays SO per cent of extortion. AS that
free silver paper has tendency to
mix its tariff arguments with the cur
rency problem, the easiest and sim
plest way to test it's proposition that
the farmer in that which he buys pays
twice as much as he ought to, because
of the tariff, will be to compare like
to like What did his farm products
buy under the democratic tariff of 1904,
and what will they buy now under the
present republican tariff? Take bush
ell Of wheat or corn, or fat steer or
hog, or butter and eggs; or, to be even
more comprehensive and accurate,
take the average of leading farm pro.
ducts and prices and com pare the two
periods. In which period could the
farmer buy most, bushel for bushel,
pound for pound?
And in which period was he most
prosperous?
Which period does he like best?

VICTIMS OF THE FLOOD.

New York Tribune: One hardly
knows which to admire most, the
promptness with which other cities

il an outside aid would be required.

BAsHoR ON THE SITUATION.

Des Moines Register and Leader:
There are only two things to democrat
lie politics any more. One is the fun
we have out of the conventions and the
other is the pleasure of nominating
candidates and watching them dwindle
in number later on.
Thus spoke Hon. S. H. Bashor, of
Waterloo, when asked by reporter
concerning the prospects for the state
democratic convention. Mr.. Bashor
was enroute to Jamestown, Col, where
he is interested in mine and where
The will remain until the latter part of
September. He was accompanied by
e. M. Brady. of Waterloo.
But to take your question serious
ly, said Mr.. Bashor, 81 really have not
paid as much attention to the status
of politics this year as in times gone
by owing to the fact that | will be I'M
My Judgment is that the democratic
state convention this year will be one
of the warmest ever known by the par
ty in Iowa. The question will be to
decide who the state leader of the par
ty will be. Whether he will represent
the extremist or conservative element
of the party. BY that mean, whether
he will be Bryan or Cleveland fol-
lower or whether he will represent the
wing that is striving for harmony. The
result is very much in doubt Judge
Van Wagenen. of Sioux City, who has
a gubernatorial bee in his bonnet. and
who will probably secure the nomina-
ton, will not be able to take much part
in the contest for the state leadership.
]. M. Parsons, of Rock Rapids, and
Judge M. ]. Wade, of Iowa City, will
probably work together in the conven-
ton and will lead the contest of the
harmony wing against those who will
probably bring up the Kansas City
platform question. Beyond Judge Van
Wagenen for governor, | have not
heard any other candidates for the va
rious Offices mentioned"

EX-GOVERNOR JOSHUA G. NEW
BOLD,

In the death of Ex-Governor Joshua
G. Newbold of Mt Pleasant, the re-
publican party of Iowa loses one OF
its most faithful and efficient servants.
Governor Newbold first came into
prominence in state politics when he
was elected to membership in the
thirteenth general assembly as the
representative of Henry county. Not
only did the people of that county rec.
ognize his abiiity in that office and
return him to the two succeeding as
semblies, but his ability was seen in
the house and he was made chairman
of the school committee in the four
teenth and of the appropriation com.
mittee in the fifteenth assembly.
Having come to Iowa in the early
years of its statehood he contributed
his share to the developments of it's
resources and the extending of its i'm.
fiuence. His voice was heard in local
and county politics in those first wears.
Like many other loyal Iowa pioneers
when the great calamity of the Civil
war spread over the land, Governor
Newbold entered the service of his
country and with the Twenty.ffth
Iowa infantry endured the hardships
ana hanPare of khA capanai2ns.

WHO'S FOR SILVER NOW?

Washington Post: Mr.. Bryan de-.
clares, with his customary franllness,
that there is a large store of disap-
pointment" for anyone who thinks
there will ever be harmony between
the men who think as Mr. Cleveland
does and the men who believe earnest
ly in the platforms of 1896 and 1900
Harmony between these elements is
absolutely impossible. because their
sympathies, their aspirations, their
purposes and their methods are abso-
lutely antagonistic to each other" All
ant. 1t depends upon the number of
men who still believe earnestly in
the platforms of 1896 and 1900" If Mr.
Bryan still believes that this republic
should forthwith open it's mints for the
free, unlimited and independent coin
age of silver at the ratio of 16 to L,
he is probably the only man of any i'm
portance who holds to that faith.
There are democrats who contend that
bimetallism, at some ratio, may at
some future time become necessary
through the insufficiency of the gold
supply; but we know of and have
heard of no democrats-except Mr..
Bryan-who believes or has recently
believed in the coinage declaration of
the Chicago-Kansas City platform.
In fact, some Of Mr.. Bryan's utterances
relative OF the large output of gold and
its influence upon the per capita circu-
lation clearly indicate a waning faith
on his part in the one and only theory
with which his name and fame are in
dissolubly associated. Had he been
elected president in 1900 he would
have been able, by reason of the gross
neglect of a republican congress, to
have put the country on silver basis
at once. But he would not have done
SO, because his party would have stay
ed his hand. When it comes to wreck
and ruin of industries and the sacrifice
of national honor and credit, democrats
have no laundering after that sort of
thing.
Mr.. Bryan knows very well-no man
knows better than he-that his popu-
list allies do not now and never did
believe earnestly" or believe at all in
16 to /. He knows the kind of mon
ey'' the populists, in their platform Of
1886 and 1900 declared for. In their
estimation, every ounce of silver or
gold put into dollar is wasted. He
knows that the pops stood by him be,
cause he was willing to meet them half
way.
Where, then, are the men who "be-
lieve earnestly" in plnnging this repub-
lie into silver bath? Who besides
Mr.. Bryan now holds to that dead is
sue? Indeed, is he quite sure that he
has not escaped from it?

ROOSEVELT ON WORK FOR
CHURCHES.

Sunday at the dedicatory seryices of
the Grace Memorial Reformed church
in Washington. President Roosevelt
was called upon to occupy the pulpit
and take part in the services. Though
the President has just completed a
$4,000 mile tour of the. country, max
ing 265 speeches, not until his return
to the capital was he called to place
behind the chancel. President Roose-
welt has for years been member of
the Reformed church Since his COM
ing to Washington h has attended
services. with that congregation.
Deeming it proper that the society
in the capital city should have a
more suitable house of worship the
general synod authorized the raising
of 100000 for the erection of a temple
of worship. This structure has been
completed for some time but it was
decided to postpone it's dedication I'M
til the President returned from his
trip.
His address OF this occasion was en-
tirely ftting and was such as woul,
inspire better lives and service to
God and .'F,.' low men, In speaking
VI Liz NfJf1 u tiit CuuItl GTRSlutaut
Roosevelt ae.sr,ed to that familiar pas
sage cf Suipturc. by their fruits We
shall knew Them He declared that
the mar. who is not tender and CON
siderate husband, loving and wise
father, is not serving the Lord when
he goes to church. The going to
church. the association of the mem
bers and the hearing of the teachings
from Gods word must bear fruit in
the every day lives of the members.
He referred to the duty peculiar %
the Reformed churches-that of TAX
ing care of the brethren who come to
the United States each year as immi.
grants, which should be made the
work of all Christian denominations.
The man going to new country is
torn from all his associations and I'M
til he becomes fixed in his new home
and accustomed to its surroundings
there is danger threatening. There
are always many people anxious to
associate with the newcomer to his
detriment. Unquestionably here lies
one of the greatest opportunities for
good that is presented to the churches
of the country.

THE PHILIPPINE FAMINE.

It is gratifying to the people of the
United States to hear the report made
by Governor Taft, that the distress
from the famine in the archipelago is
not SO great as was at first reported.
Considerable apprehension was felt
with regard to conditions in the islands
after the report of General Miles last
winter. Congress was at once inter.
for the relief of the famine sufferers.
Governor Taft reports shortage in
the food supply but adds that he has
not as yet received a call from any
province governors for rice for free
distribution. The most serious calam-
ity that has befallen the natives has
been the loss of cattle from the rhin-
derpest. The fields have been infected
SO that in bringing cattle from any 9TH
er land it will be necessary to immun-
ize them by an injection of serum.
Governor Taft does not view the
proposition to utilize the army trans
ports for the Importation of cattle
and corn as practical Vessels can be
chartered for shipment of cattle at
about one-fourth of the cost of oper-
ating the transports. The island gov
eminent has number of coast guard
boats that can carry rice to any part of
the archipelago quickly and rice can
be purchased in the Orient at much
cheaper price than corn can be ship
ped from the United States. Then too,
rice is one of the principal edibles of
the Filipinos and they would have to
be taught to eat corn or wheat.
In closing his rppDpt Governor, 70 ~
says: The danger from famine has
not been as great as supposed it was.
In any event, with the funds provided
by congress now, feel confident that
the Philippine government is in a posi-
ton to meet any emergency OF this
kind which may arise
