POLITICS AND RELIGION.
TCrestOn AdVertiser.l


No man is fit to be IL citizen of this
free country who is SO narrow that he
will not vote for clean, honest, pro-
eressive. up to-d date business man on
the score of his religion. That is the
very last qualification that should be
required of any man for any political
office. The day of the Know-NothinS
has passed from America and the spirit
of religious and political tolerance
which has risen in place of this vicious
and un-American system is making of
the country and every part of the coun-
try better place to live IN. a better
country to do business in. and a better
country to raise up a future generation
which will look on man as to his
qualifications, his moral character and
his intelligence. Let us remember In
the interests of q better Creston that
the words of Bobby Burns are as true
today as they were when they were
written, and whenever any narrow
minded ward heeler speaks to You OF
a mans religion just quote 70 him that
a mans Il man for a that.

SUBSCRIBER HAD TO PAY.

EStneFNllle peIlloCTatI
1t may be of interest to our brother
newspaper publishers to learn that the
Democrat has just won a law suit IN
which q subscriber. who had taken the
paper for five years, absolutely refused
to pay for same. The case was COM
menced early last fall and carted
around from one justice to another I'M
til it finally landed in Justice Larson's
court at Wallingford. The case was
there tried before a jury of six men.
The defendant testified as to receiving
the paper for five years without pay
ing a cent subscription and gave as
his reason for doing so that former
publisher gave him the paper. We had
no evidence at the trial to contradict
this and the jury, after being out near
ly ten hours, failed to agree. BY agree
ment the case was then brought be-
fore Justice Davidson in this city where
the former publisher of the Democrat
testified that he did not give the de-
PENDANT the paper and the court decided
that defendant was liable for the sub
scription price Of the paper, which was
$3.50 and to pay all costs in the case,
which amounted to over $50.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

OF Governor Cummins recent speech
TO the Polk county convention the
Council Bluffs Nonpareil says: With
out exception his arguments We're clean
cut and logical, and they We're stamped
by an intense earnestness born only
OF the conviction that he was ever
laslingly right. There was no Juggling
of words, but an honest, straightfor-
ward discussion thruout. The speech
will form quite notable addition to
the tariff literature of the present time,
and it is calculated to strengthen the
determination of those who believe in
an early revision of the tariU to meet
changed conditions

BUSINESS FEATURES.

So far as trade and the industries
are concerned the adjourned session OF
congress has been highly satisfactory.
Financial interests regret that no cur
rency measure was passed, but, as none
was anticipated, there was no disap-
pointment. Further Improvement in
the movement of freight and fuel makes
the general situation more favorable.
although shippers are constantly COM
planning and pig iron furnaces are not
able to run steadily. Numerous labor
struggles also interrupt manufacturing
yet mills ard shops are producing freely
as rule. Jobbers and wholesalers are
ened very well in many lines, notably
wearing apparel. Permits for building
operations show large gains over last
years figures. giving additional
strength to lumber and other materials,

New York for the last week exceed

by $4,340,S43. The gain was especially
noticeable in dry goods. Collections
are not always prompt, some sections
reporting more renewals than usual,
but money is in ample supply for COM
this city and an advance in call loans
accelerated the decline in securities.
The average of the sixty most active
railway stocks has fallen about SIS a

cummINs AND THE PLATFORM.

While there is nothing about the
Polk county speech of Governor Cum
minis that is particularly surprising
there was nevertheless more than or
binary interest centered in it for the
reason that the governor had just re-
turned from visit to the president
where. his enemies had said, he had
been called to reform his tariff views

Cummins was a man Of firm convic-

Resolved, That all county candidates
be required to hoe ten rounds of 400
yeards each; and be it further
Resolved. That state candidates who
canvass in buggies be given a double
dose of work in the manner above
outlined"
BY this method the Lee county farm
ers hope to make up for the valuable
time they lose each campaign year in
talking TO candidates, and If the plan
is generally adopted over the state it
will doubtless detract in Il large meas
ure from the strenuousness of the con-
tests.

A hotel in which lone and lovely

and apparently successful experiment..
AT this hotel-as at no other in New
York-a woman may come and register,
unpuestionably at any hour, day or
night, and the only requirements are
that she shall not be accompanied by
a husband, a baby or a dog. This ex-
pertinent in hotel keeping is a foreshad-
owed failure. 1t might be possible for
women to get along without men and
dogs but never without the babies.
The only saving grace about the edict
of Punishment is that it does not in
clude cats. Perhaps the hotel might
succeed as an old maids home.

tiles are easily discerned in the built in
