The Dubuque Telegraph asserts that
the removal of credits taxation wonl
do away with the ferret but while we
continue taxation of money We should
continue the ferret. 1t is as wrong 10
cheat the state as to cheat ones neigh
Dor and so long as we maintain po-
lice service to catch the embezzler. we
should maintain a ferret service 10
catch the tax dodger."

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

Speaking of the tax ferret question,
Iowa ought to be ashamed of her
self to keep such law on the statute
books a moment longer than 1t will
take to reveal 1t at the next session
of the legislature" declares the Iowa
City Republican.

Now that the government is going
to investigate some of the smaller Of
fees in the country says the Cedar
Rapids Gazette, st may be learned
that the chief graft in connection With
them has been the payment of large
salaries to postmasters who have hired
cheap clerks to do the work. BY the
time the roundup has been finished the

ing basis and there may even be 4
surplus of many millions of dollars an

Writing on the trading stamp craze
in Sioux City the Tribune observes
the appetite for something for moth
ing is unauenchable Merchants can
not afford to give away all their pro-
fits. Some may be able to give them
away longer than others but as in tn ;
main, the profits of the retail trade
are legitimate and necessary to the
conduct of the business. and the bust
ness itself is necessary to accommodate
the public. the merchant who gives
away his profits gives away what legi-
timately belongs 10 him and what Will
be given to his successor IL he breaks
himself up by too much giving"

TO be an Iowa idea that a congress

A DELIGHTFUL PRISON.

1t is very doubtful if there is
anywhere more delightful prison
than that of Tobel, in Switzerland.
There are very few guards, not more
than one to twenty-five prisoners,
and they never think of carrying
arms. The prisoners cells are
constantly open, so that the in
mates can easily tell at any time
what the guards are doing. More
over, the prisoners are allowed to
have paper, ink, newspapers, cider
and various dainties from the
kitchen, including fried eggs, Of
which they are very fond.

The beauty about Grover
Cleveland's clear, level-headed
speech is that he spoke his mind
without any Interior motive. He
is not q candidate for Office and is
thoroughly Independent of all
parties or cliques. The eminence
of the man throughout the Nation,
and his well known calm, logical
and dispassionate way of looking
at any question before expressing
an opinion about it, give his words
great weight with all thinking peo-
pie. His speech should do much
to put the South and the much
talked of race question in their true
light before the world.

German to the u. S. Senate and his
leadership of the Democratic forces

which has taken place in the con-
troll Of the policy Of the Democratic

that, tempted by the prospect of
obtaining the financial support of
powerful business interests, of secur-

voted for Mckinley in 1896 and 1900
and OF creating some division of

the Democratic party may enter the
presidential campaign with sscon

vatiye'' platform, both acceptable to
the financial interests now antagon.

The next campaign therefore
would thus present the strange spec
table of the Republican candidate

not indeed of assault upon the mon
ey power, but as supporter OF
measures intended to prevent fur

radical party, while the Democrats
would be the conservative" party.

TO the growing feeling that the prin-

while the other would represent the
views of these financial interests who
believe that the prosperity of the
country depends upon their having
their own way.
The progress of such contest
would be of extraordinary interest
and the result would be demon
stration of the power of the financial
lnserests to control the elections in
this country.
