DOWNS IOWA IDEA"
Gov. Cummins Loses In His
Fight for Tariff Revision.
Special to The Globe.

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, May s.-The Re-
publican state convention to name dele
gates to the national convention will be
held at st. Louis May 49,
Most of the county conventions have
now been held and it is known that the
convention will be the funeral of the IA
nous Iowa idea" of the tariff question.
The opposition to GOV. Cummins and his
tariff revision views claims it will count
over 1000 of the 1902 votes in the con
vention. The Cummins people concede that
tWo-thirds Of the delegates will be opposed
to him.
Gov. Cummins. however, will be elected
as one of the delegates at large. The
other three will be Senators Allison and
DoHfver and J. w. Blythe, general counsel
of the Burlington railroad system, whose
home is at Burlington. Mr.. Blythe is the
real head of the Republican organiza-
ton in the state.
Gov. Cummins will be in a decided mi
nority On the delegation, but he is still
demanding to be made Iowa's member
OF the resolutions committee. He is will
ing not to be extravagant in his tariff
demands, but does not want the tariff
handled and the admission made in the
platform that changes may be made in
tariff laws, and that some are now needed.
In order to prevent a further outbreak Of
the fractional fight in the state it Is under
stood that the Blythe influence has de-
cided to name Senator Allison on reso-
lutlons. He is a standpatter but not so
Objectionable to the Cummins people as
some others would be.

no debts. If the needs are great, raise
the taxes to the breaking point. This is
sound doctrine for the kitchens of the
poor. but is folly as applied to a great
municipality. The city of all others that
has shown the world the most wisdom in
affairs is doubtless the city of Paris. 1t
has debt Of $500 000,O Boston has
debt of $60,00O.0 600. 1 am not advocating
debt of that size until We reach the di-
menSions of those cities. But I affirm
that 1T is impossible to secure the neces-
sites of civic life by direct taxation on
the pay aszyou- go principle. We're it
possible it would not be right 1t is not
fair to try to tax the present generation
for vast legacy of property TO be hand
ed down to the people who come after US,
many of whom viii be ungrateful stran-
gers.
San Francisco has recently voted ST.
900. 900 of bonds to be used in public i'm
proVementS. l am not urging a policy of
wild expansion, but / am urging a new
method in finance. Let us only issue
have after. full and adequate discussion.
and for every dollar expended let us have
full dollar of value.
Says It's Unwise School Policy.
1.-The school Situation will illustrate the
doctrine that 1. have laid down. We are
building additions to our housing capacity
by the pressure of particular need out of
the money that can be spared each year
for the purpose. 1t is the most expensive
and unsatisfactory way to do the business.
What we need is a comprehensive view of
the situation, an intelligent estimate of
conditions and an adequate meeting of our
responsibilities. 1t is far better to have
plan and spread the tax levy over ten or
fifteen years for payment.
What is the situation2 Hundreds of
ounRehildren are denied proper school ia
eilitieS. Were it not for the parochial
schools the conditions would be intoler-
able. The labor department is busy
keeping the children out of work, and
meantime hundreds of children are out OF
any school. and in spite of our compul-
them insschool.- There is mo- room for
them. We are rearing a mob of truant
boys, who after a while will fill our re-
form schools and our jails. It is not
economy and it is not good morals. The
plea is urged that we cannot afford to do
better. We cannot afford to do so badly.
What would be thought of railway sys-
tenn that only added to its mileage the
amount that could be saved from yearly
income? It Is even more suicidal in mu
nlc1pal finance. The same lesson can be
learned by an examination of other de-
partments Of the city government. But let
us have as rigid economy and as great
enc1ency IN city affairs as in good pri-
vate business.
There is no ground for dliscouragement.
81. Paul has glorious past. Nature has
crowned her with beauty and the for
tunes of trade have given her opulence.
Today there is no better place for a
home from ocean to ocean. But there re-
main problems to be solved. Let us have
courage to attack them. Upon the wis
dom, the conscience and the courage that
is put into public affairs win depend the
supremacy of our city. Let these prevail,
and no seer has yet been found who was
bold enough to predict the glory Of the
coming years.

My brother has been In the habit of

TIME MASTERS.

However much contempt the
true Southerner may feel for the
ngid economy or parsimony OF
our Northern brethren, We must
all confess that we are, as peo-
pie, prone to overdo the spirit of
generosity, and are ruinously
wasteful. Black and white, rich
and poor, the average Southern
family wastes enough to keep an
ordinary Yankee in comfort.
We waste land, money, food,
strength of body, soul and mind,
and last, but by no means least
time. We begin early to contract
the habit of wasting time, our
only possession which can never
be replenished or restored. We
idle away precious moments and
never o-be-recalled opportuni-
ties, when we enter school, and
later on become eye-serving en-
ployees-performing our work
with the sole aim of holding the
| job and collecting the pay.
Wastefulness brings its returns,
soon or late, as is evidenced by
the aims houses, homes for the
(indigent, the army of tramps that
infest our land, and novels OF
poverty. If the chronic time
waster was the only one to suffer
his sin would not be so great, bu
others must bear the burden anc
pay the penalty. The profession.
al loafer and time-killer feels M
qualms of conscience when hi
steals his busy neighbours time
}, yet it may be far more valuable
? than goods or gold. The time
waster also sets a bad example
which some one is sure to follow
