posed to drop, the total is about half as
much, or $4,000 a county. Let this
be shaved a third, to be certain of a
conservative estimate. and even then IL
is found that the total for the state
is about 100000. To these items arc
ia he added the cost of the several
county conventions in each of the nine>
tv-pine counties and the individual
outlay of the candidates and other
campaigners. 1t is submitted that at
this rate the total will not fall far
short of the estimate of a half million
dollars.
In any estimate on this proposition,
it is not to be forgotten that above al,
else, and more important than all else,
is the disturbance and neglect of bust
ness and everyday affairs incident to
elections The loss thus occasioned
cannot be computed. but anyone who
has given the matter thought at all
knows that it must be great.
There are many other reasons to be
given in support of the biennial
elections movement, but this one of
economy Is of first Importance to the
taxpayers.
1t will puzzle the advocates of an
nual elections to show just why this
useless outlay Of money should be in

IN THREE BATTLES
THOMAS L. cURRAN RETURNED
FRIDAY EVENING AFTER
8 YEARS SERVICE.
Was Private in Troop G Fifteenth
Cavalry and Fought in the Philippine
lsIands-Talks With a Courier Rep.
resentative Of His Soldier Life.

After serving as a private soldier in
the United States army in the Philip.
pines for three years, in which time he
participated in three battles, two
skirmishes and two general expedi-
tons, Thomas l., Curran returned to
his home in this city Friday evening.
After leaving a country in which no.
body but American soldiers and Moro
savages lived for this length Of time,
Mr.. Curran is indeed glad to be home,
his three years of life there being suf-
ficient. He obliged a Courier repre-
sentative this afternoon with some in
formation as to his army life.
Mr.. Curran enlisted in this city Feb
ruary ~, 1901, and was detailed to
the Philippines, arriving at Mindanoa
May -, 1901, where he soon became
acquainted with the race which made
SO much trouble for the American
soldiers. In speaking of the appear.
ance of the Moros, Mr.. Curran said
they were tall, well developed, and in.
telligent in their fighting. Their COM
plexion is of a light brownish color.
Mr.. Curran was private in Troupe
G, Fifteenth cavalry, which left the
Philippines October Is, last year, ar
irving in San Francisco November Is.
Was In Japan.
En- route to this country, the YES
sci which bore the American soldiers
took coal at Nagasaki. Japan. A stop
of three days was made at that sta
ton. When asked about the Russo.
Japanese controversy, Mr.. Curran re-
piled that preparations were being
made in Nagasaki while he was there
and seemingly the Japs were of the
opinion that they would be victorious
in their inevitable battle with the Rus
SLAMS. Although not wishing to be
quoted as to his opinion of the war in
the far east, Mr.. Curran limited that
the American soldiers were partial to
Japan.
Camp at Fl. Myer, Virginia.
Troop G in company with several
other troops of the Fifteenth passed
through this city about two months
ago, en- route from San Francisco, CAL,
to FIT. Myer, Virginia, where upon Feb
ruary 26. Mr. Curran and the other Of
tumwa young men were honorably dis
charged. Before returning to this city
Mr.. Curran visited Washington. D. c.,
Philadelphia, Penn, Baltimore Md,
Boston, Mass, and Niagara, N. Y. com
ing to Chicago from that place. In
company with his brother, John Cur
ran, who is stationed at Fort Washing,
ton, Md, he visited the ruins Of the i
Baltimore fire.

democracy is going to do when it
comes to picking out a leader to follow

1T is not Iowa's place to declare

think we should be left free to go in
at st. Louis and help the majority
nominate the best man, the man who
can win this fall. Nobody knows now
who that will be but it will develop at
the convention and Iowa ought to have
her votes ready to help"
Judge Wade will not declare himself
as to Mr.. Hearst. Since his trip to
Iowa from which he returned this
week he talks in way which indicates
that he feels the Iowa democracy is
getting together in better shape than
heretofore.
Mr.. Wade saw one of Mr.. Hearst's
friends while in Iowa and says it is
surprising what supreme faith his fol-
lowers have in their candidate. He
says that he talked with men who are
not working for Hearst who declare it
to be their sincere belief that he will
be nominated on the first or second
ballot at st. Louis.
While Judge Wade will not say what
he thinks Of Mr. Hearst's candidacy
his near friends do not hesitate to
say that the lone Iowa democratic
congressman who is practically the
leader of his party in the state is
heartily opposed to the New York
editor as possibility for the presiden-
tial nominee at st. Louis.
