THE FIGHTING EDITOR.

The death of Colonel D. r. Anthony
Saturday at Leavenworth, Kansas, will
carry those who still survive back to
the days Of John Brown and bleeding
Kansas when the abolition sentiment
grown aggressive actually crossed
swords with the domination Of slavery.
Anthony was an editor Of the fearless
Garrison type crossed upon the Cassius
M. Clay fighting strain. He feared
nothing, sought for the forms of
expression most likely to exasper-
ate and met the border ruffians who
came to kill him, half way with dirk
and pistol. Perhaps he was the hard
est hated man in early Kansas. The
object of numberless assaults and par
ticipant in dozens of deadly shooting
ARRAYS he and his newspaper survived
to see not only Kansas but the Unit
ed States freed from the institution Of
slavery. At one time Anthony carried
seventeen bullets about in his body,
but he lived forty years after the sys-
tenn he denounced and hated and
fought had vanished from the face Of
the continent. 1t is well to remember
such men, and when they die lay them
away in pride and without tears. They
served and succeeded.
Greeley and Weed and Phillips and
the agitators of the settled east simply
famed an existing sentiment. The
rude pioneers Of abolition like Garrison
and Brown and Anthony fought red
handed for universal freedom on the
frontiers, the debatable ground between
slavery and human liberty. They used
the rifles that Henry Ward Beecher
raised money to buy. When the border
ruffians gathered for a raid they rode
to meet them at the border. If the
raiders entered Kansas they "came in
thru the smoke" These men were
practical abolitionists. While their
eastern brethren theorized they kept
Kansas free at the gun muzzles. They
were the militant wing of the abolition
propaganda. Perhaps they did more
toward the abolition Of human servl-
tude than eny other class At any rate
they pledged their lives. their fortunes
and their honor on the event, and shed
their blood and the blood of others for
an idea. And no man can do more.
Thru his fifty years of aggressive
editorial work Anthony retained the in
domitable spirit that characterized him
in the strenuous period Of Kansas his

THE INFLUENCE OF IOWA.

A self expatriated Iowan whose nome
IA now in q Missouri town on the north
slope Of the Ozarks, where he has real
estate investments, in conversation
with a Times-Republican editor at
tributed much of Missouris present
progressiveness to influences eXerted
by immigrants from Iowa and northern
Illinois, but especially from Iowa.
When Iowans began to sprinkle into
the bourbon communities prosperity
game with them. They brought fresh
ideas Of thrift, new methods OF farming
and business. They saw the oportun-
lily in the cows that roamed unherded
with calves by their sides on the hill
side pastures and inaugurated cream
cries. established cold storage plants
where the eggs and big red apples
might lie awaiting q favorable market,
Instituted poultry packing and gener-
ally raised the quality and prices OF
the SOIL Besides awakening the DOR
inant instinct of thrift they organized
lecture courses, brought new manners
and built new society. SO much has
the Iowan done for the particular COM
nunity In which the ex-Iowan quoted
lives. that certain Of his landed In
vestments have doubled in value, en-
tirely, in his opinion, from the effect
exerted by progressive Iowans upon a
previously thriftless and ignorant peo-
pie.
With Missouri the west and north
west owes much to Iowa and Illinois.
Time was when wheat raising was the
only industry of the western and
northwestern states. When the bust
ness farmers of Iowa and Illinois came
into Minnesota, Nebraska and the Da-
kotas, they brought with them the idea
of diversified farming. Before their
advent failure in the wheat crop
meant famine and a sufferers plea
for clothing, food and seed wheat. Now
If his wheat crop fails the northwest
fall back upon. Not all his eggs are in
one basket. He raises oats and corn
and barley. He has his cold storage
plants and his market for eggs and
poultry. There are small manufactur-
ing plants that mean much to him
scattered all over the northwest. He
has become business man far-sight-
ed and self-reliant and most of this
came to him with the immigration
from Iowa and Illionis.
These two states have been incubators
Of prosperity. They grow good farmers
and send them af1eld as missionaries of
good crops and good times AS they
made the west and northwest they will
make the south and southwest. Their
influence in Missouri is hown by the
rise in realty values, the improvement
Of social conditions, and finally in a
republican majority for 1904. Parting
from them with regret 1t is a satisfac
ton to know that wherever Iowa sends
her sons the corn grows higher, the
grass greener and conditions Of life
better for their coming.
