Looking on from the sfdelines the
Cedar Rapids Gazette Observes: 1.-THE
standpatters of Iowa are supposed to
be on the market for more ground, the
necessity of pounding additional men
and things into the ground having
been discovered. They will need to
work night shift to install another
pounding machine"
The Des Moines News believes "The
man whose life is given up to the
small aims and small givings of ac-
cumulating dollars is to be pitied. He
does not succeed in life. He is the
hateful thru his self-centered life.
Such man is mad because his neigh
Dor has more than he. He works not
because he needs the money, but to
display that which money buys. That
is not life. 1t is mesery spelled with a
big NJ"
Commerce and industry are more
potent factors in city building than
politics and legislative wire pulling
declares the Waterloo Reporter. "A
hundred wide awake commercial
travelling men are worth more to 4
town than twice that number of pro-
fessional lobbyists. The money that
some cities have spent to secure the
location of court houses or state CAPT
tails within their environs would have
contributed far more to their growth

the Washington Press, referring to
President Roosevelt. "If he lives to the

young-just in his prime. What in
the world can we do with the strenuou;

Each presidential election brings

THE BouTELL BILL.

Calling attention to what he evident

enlist recently made the statement that
all the alcohol needed for the various
uses to which pure spirits may be put
might be extracted from the cornstalks
left in the field by Iowa farmers. His
assertion means more than appears UNI
Ill the multifarious industrial uses of
alcohol are considered. Here In Amer
lea we tax alcohol at such rate that
1t is used only when nothing cheaper
may be substituted. Wood alcohol is
free from the excessive taxation, but
IS not produced in quantities sufficient
Or sold at a price to make it's use gem
eral as the use of alcohol as an agent
Of industry is becoming in foreign
eountrdes.
Last January bill to provide for
nntaxed denaturized alcohol for indus
trial purposes was introduced in the
house and ordered printed by the COM
Z mittee on ways and means. 1t provided
that alcohol might when rendered I'M
ut for drinking purposes or as bev-
erage by mixture with wood alcohol,
naptha, or other substances, be renov-
ed free Of tax from distdllery ware
houses. This bill is certain to come
before congress this winter and should
pass The strongest objection against
dts passage is that it is likely to reduce
the revenue derived from the tax on
spirits.
That the question Of revenue is, how
ever, Of minor Importance is shown by
the fact that England, France, Ger
many Russia, Holland, Denmark, Nor
way, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, It
ally and several other minor European
governments. impose no tax on denat-
urized alcohol These countries have
expensive military and naval estab-
lishments which strain their revenue
resources to the utmost, and which
necessitate many special forms Of taxes
to which the American people would
never submit. In Russia, Italy, Ger
many, France and Austria in particu-
lar no method which could be safely
adopted for increasing the revenues, or
of dividing the present enormous bur-
den Of taxation, would be neglected.
The fact that alcohol is regarded by
all these countries as material equal
ly entitled to freedom from internal
revenue tax as pig iron or other kinds
Of domestic raw material, and that no
matter how pressing the need of rev.
enue may be, alcohol required for in
dustrial purposes Is never taxed. shows
that the advantages to the manufac-
turing industries and farmers of those
countries Of their liberal alcohol poll
cies far outweigh the benefit from any
revenue they might be able to secure
from this source.
Alcohol is a better fuel for the au-

Rines Commonly known as gasolene

fuel for domestic cooking and heat
ing than either coal or gasolene. AS
an illuminant when used with the in

light and is superior to kerosene. 1t Is
necessary in the manufacture of more
than a thousand different articles. More
