BIENNIAL ELECTIONS.
IDau MojpeS News


1t will not do to forget the biennial
election amendment to the state con-
stitution of Iowa This amendment is
to be voted on at the general election
in November.
If the amendment is adopted it will
put an end to half the politics of the
state. The elections will be held only
every other year Then there Will be
half as many conventions and half as
many campaigns half as much noise
and distraction. half as large cam
paign funds, etc. The reform is one
which commends itself to that large
class of citiz ms who have only the
good of the state at heart. 1t will be
opposed by all those elements which
profit by political agitation 1t Will
be opposed by the men who make of
politics a business and by newspapers
that are dependent to some extent on
political parties for support.
The amendment, on one similar 10
it, was approved by the people four
Years ago by a comfortable majority,
but the vote for the amendment was
much less than it should have been.
Nav there is some fear that unless
there is real work done for the amend
ment 1t will not be adopted. Ii there
is 10 be a fight against the amendment
there should also be Il fight Tor 1t. The
reform is one which would put iowa
In line with other progressive states.

NOT THE "MERCIFUL MAN
Manson Democrat.]

He was Il church member, one OF
those narrow church members, who
are a discre6it to all good church
members. 1t is no fault of the church
he belongs to that he is a church
member, for all churches are supposed
to accept members whenever there is
a chance to save soul If the church
saves this fellows soul it will have to
employ a microscope to find it for it is
mighty small. The other day he hired
Il horse at a livery barn and drove it
all day. Along about noon he drove
into a livery barn at Palmer and had
the horse unhitched. Needn't feed
any grain he said; just little hay
will do" Then he went away and filled
his own stomach with such dinner
as only fellows of his calibre can when
they are away from home and have to
put up a quarter for it. But the horse
went without any grain and the church
member saved 10 cents. Will that
dirty little dime ever do him any good9
Will he put ii in the contribution box
or send il to the heather? If he does,
chances are that when he knocks at
the pearly gates for admission and tells
about giving that measly dime to the
cause, it will be handed back to him
with an invitation to so to hell.

Lets see,'' considers the Iowa Falls
Citizen. The Iowa revisionists want
ed a platform that would declare en-
practically for protection, that would
recognize that specific schedules are
not sacred, that would demand re-
vision by the second Roosevelt admin
istration, and that would make, 4
straight declaration for reciprocity.
The platform grants three of these de-
sires to the revisionists, and denies a
naming of date for revision. This is
so much better than was expected u
month ago, that the liberal republicans
are happy. The standpatters had the
power, but they didn't have the nerve"

The Carroll Herald thinks In all
candor, the platform seems to leave
the factions in Iowa with honors even.
The standpat element have to congrat-
ulate themselves on the absence of Il
pledge to revise the tariff. That is an
evident triumph of their contention,
and to that extent they have the sane
ton of the national convention. But
the other crowd, which contended for
reciprocity, find what they have insist
ed upon also incorporated in the plat
form"
Nothing said about reciprocity m
any certain products, remarks the
Forest City Summit. only the plain,
common sense declaration that the
party believes in reciprocity and viii
this means whenever it can be done 70
any advantage" The Summit takes
this to be "a pretty good declarations"
and says The platform is strong and
such as all conservative republicans
hoped to see adopted"
The Marengo Herald asserts that
Governor Cummins' ideas as to the
tariff have found so much favor with
the party in convention that the party
is pledged to revision and reciprocity.
The definite provision for immediate
action is the only thing lacking, and
it is of minor Importance. Iowa has
not the honor of primarily favoring
this policy. but as the policy of the
party, every Iowan is loyal to 1t now.
The Carroll Sentinel. democratic
organ in writing of the republican
says: But the strength
of Roosevelt may as well be conceded.
1t will not make his defeat easier of
TO close our eyes 10
his popularity in certain quarters. In
the first place, he is believed to be

radical, self willed, afflicted
with swelled head, in fact possess

him. but the average person has IN

and his intentions are good
