cure suitable for old and young,

violation of the constitution and
put aside its high aims for the ele.
walton of the black man if the
Southern white man would forget
his traditional hatreds and vote as
the North does. This is indeed
a frank avowal. If the suffrage
plank is the whip that is to be used
to force the South into line in sup
port of the republican ticket, a
greater mistake was never made by
any party. The effect will be quite
the contrary from that intended. 1t
has only served to strengthen dem
ocratic sentiment in the South.
Southern people are not Of the tenn
per to submit to any such coercion.
The South, it is charged, is to
blame for the deep sentiment in the
North against excessive represent
alton. The South is to blame be-
cause by traditions, modes of think
ing and association il has always
found democratic principles to its
liking. It isto blame becausethrough
the trying years Of reconstruc-
tioR and carpet bag ruleit stood to-
gether in support Of the party
which alone gave it hope for fair
treatment. 1t is to blame because
it continued to uphold the party
which alone prevented an infamous
Force Bill from being rammed
down its throat, and it is to blame
now because it raises its voice in
to the latest attack up
on its political, social and industrial
welfare. 1t looks very much as if
the writer quoted above got mixed
up in his logic. He has mistaken
effect tor cause. The policies of
the republican party, more than
anything else, have compelled the
South to stand together as unit
upon political and economic ques-
tions.
If northern theorists and politi-
clans will keep hands off, the South
will solve its problems with fair
ness and for the highest interests of
both races, and then it will not be
influenced in its decisions upon 9th
er political and economic issues by
the constant menace to its social in
stitutions from the ceasless agita-
ton Of the race question.

REPUBLICAN ATTITUDE To
WARD THE SOUTH.
The republican platform declares:

The republican platform declares
"We favor such congressional
action as shall determine whether
by special determinations the elec-
tive Franchise in any state has been
unc0nStftUti0nGIly limited,
and if such is the case, we demand
that representation in congress and
IN the electoral college shall be pro
portionally reduced as directed by
the constitution of the United
States.
There would seem to be little to
add to the mastery exposition OF
the absurdiues and inconsistencies
Of this statement given by John
Sharp Williams at St. Louis OBJ
serve that Congress is asked to
determine whether the constitution
has been violated by the restriction
Of the elective franchise and il such
is found TO be the case, the viola
tion of the constitution is to be
recognized and then another clause
in the constitution is to be invoked
to reduce representation in the
states guilty Of such violation. Such
patriotic regard for the sacredness
Of the constitution is indeed touch
ing.
Whether the declaration in the
republican platform is a mere sop
thrown out to the negro voters or
is a deliberate effort to revive sec
tional feelings and cripple the south
by bringing therace question prom
inently to the front is open to ques-
ton. The negro policy Of the re-
publican president would seem to
confirm the latter view. South
ern journals are unanimous IL their
denunciation of the scheme, but it
has been left for republican paper
to give the truest and frankest ex-
PLANTATION of the animus back of it.
The Kansas City Journal says:
IF the South finds deep senti-
ment in the North against the ex-
cessive representation in the house
and the electoral college, it has it.
self to blame. Everywhere else the
country divides on questionsofgov-
ernment: of financial and economic
policy. The South refuses to con-
slider these questions and votes sol
idly for a party ticket on issues
having nothing whatever to do
with the matters of general gov
ernment.
"The South should commence to
vote its sentiments on the policies
which go to the making or the
breaking of the country. If the
South could forget its traditional
hatreds and vote as the North does
with respect only to the issues be-
fore the people there would not be

bringing the Southern representa-

CURIOUS INJURY.

Mr.. M. M. Utley lies in a precarious
condition at his home east of town,
the result of an accident which befell
him Wednesday evening while out
about the barn doing chores. No one
knows how the accident happened and
it will not be definitely known unless
he regains consciousness sufficiently
to tell how it did happen. After re-
ceiving the injury he walked to the
house where his daughter discove cred
that he was injured and at once sum-
moned a physician. An examination
on Sunday morning disclosed the fact
that Mr.. Utley had received frac-
ture of the skull and on Sunday after
noon surgical operation resulted in
the removal of small triangular
piece of bone which had been imbedd-
ed in the membrane covering the
brain. Mr.. Utley's condition is lit
tie improved, but his advanced age
and the serious nature of his injury
makes his recovery doubtful. New

A KIDS UNION.

Oelwein is noted as a union city
and nearly every craft is organized.
1t remains for some of the younger
generation to get into the band wagon.
In conversation the other day with
an employe in the Great Western
shops, l was informed that the boys
who pick up coal along the railway
tracks have organized a union. Dur
ing the past 100 days this has been
quite an industry among the poorer
classes, and the boys organized a COM
bine with grips and pass words. If a
boy not member of the union shows
up along the tracks, there is rough
house, and the non-union boy has to
fly. They have certain hours for bust
ness. The other morning a boy who
hauls coal oversight, and when he
came down stairs he was crying. His
mother asked him what the trouble
was, and he replied: Il was due down
to the yards an hour ago, and now
I'm afraid that I'll be expelled from
the union''

ANOTHER ELECTRIC LINE.

that the new electric line between
Marshalltown and Charles City is a

with White & Co., of New York City
which insures that the road will be
properly financed at the proper time.
Engineers will be placed in the field

mates. Mr.. Ferrin states that owing
to the sparsely settled district through
which the road runs it will be neces-

PARIS CHURCH SOLD.

Last week Mr.. Ceson purchased
the Paris church building and Richard
Destard is moving it to Schley where
it will be used for photograph GAL
lery and residence. The considera.
tion was $500. This church was built
about IA years ago by the Methodist
society and for many years was one of
the most prosperous churches in the
county. Rev. H. F. Wyatt now of st.
Ansgar, was the first pastor. Revs.
Salisbury, Cumming, Hendricks,
Heiserman, and we believe one other,
served as pastors. For the past six or
seven years the membership has been
gradually falling off owing to people
selling their farms and moving to
other places, until about three years
ago it became necessary to abandon
services altogether. With the excep-
tion of an occasional meeting held by
Sunday school missionaries the church
has remained idle. -Cresco Times.

This is the time of the year that we

it. Every newspaper man does it and
we then exercise our perogative in the
matter. Test your seed corr. Put 3l6

pop, give them to the children don t

don't plant them. All this tommyrot

RAvAGES OF HYDROPHORIA.

Mr.. Charles Briggs was up from AL

had more than his share of affection
this winter, as a result of a mad dog g
visit to his barn. 1t was several
weeks ago that neighbours dog found
an opening in the door Of Mr.. Briggs
barn and squeezed in. Once in. he
was unable to get out, and when the
hired man went to the barn in the
morning the dog shot by him and ran
away. 1t was not suspected the dog
was mad. but when the COWS began to
die the fact of the dogs visit was re-
membered and an Investigation show
ed that the COWS were dying of n.y.
drophobia. Along with this was the
biting of the 17-year-old son of Mr..
Briggs by one of litter of pups,
while the boy was playing with the
animal. The boy was taken to the
Pasteur Institute at Chicago at large
expense. 1t is hoped that danger for
him is at least averted. 1t seems that
