IOWA SENTIMENTS.

The Iowa state legislature, notably
a roundhead aggregation, has some
what distinguished itself in other
days, but it never did anything that
put it quite so clearly in the donkey
class as in passing the following reso-
luton:
THAT we, as representatives Of the
state of Iowa, state whose intelligence,
patriotism, loyalty, conservatism and graf
itude to all who have in any measure con-
tributed to our national Independence the
preservation of the union, our national
greatness and Christian civilization, are
intensely interested in the war now in
progress between Russia and Japan for
the supremacy in Manchuria and Korea,
its possible effect on Christian ciyiliza-
ton and the commerce of the far East;
that we are not unmindful of the uniform
kindly attitude of Russia toward this
country during our entire history, its SYM
pathy in our struggle for independence, it's
great service to US in the War Of the Re
bellion and the fact that whenever we
needed friend 1t has never failed us;
that we as neutral power should care
fully refrain from expressions of SYM
pathy that would indicate that we are I'M
grateful or forgetful of past favors; also
IIldC we SnOuIQ take 1nLO CONSIDERATION the
possible effect of this war on Christian
civilization and the control of commerce
in the far East; our interests, which now
may seem obscure, may develop, and it
may become apparent that to protect our
interests we may have to lay aside our
neutrality and enter the contest. The
question then will be, With whom will we
cast our lot? Will it naturally be with
powers naturally unfriendly toward US, or
with a friendly power that has been and
is now a good customer Of ours in the
purchase of railroad equipment and man
ufactured products?'
All Of which may be Endorsed from
any point of view because it is a re-
minder Of the remark of an American
humorist: "You never could tell from
the look of his track whether he was
going or coming back"

THE COUNTRY EDITORS AND
MINNEAPOLIS.

Mr.. Frank A. Day, editor Of the
Fairmont Sentinel, has been quoted as
saying that Minneapolis was not ap-
preciative of the country editors. Mr..
Day has a fine broad view of the world
as 1t goes, and it is possible that there
is some justice in his plant. Mime
apolis has a beautiful disregard Of
many things, but it is particularly SUI
percilious in the matter of country ed
itors.
The Minneapolis disposition is to ig-
more anything that is not local to the
town. Sometimes the people of that
town dissemble to the extent Of making
a pretense Of liking something that
does not really appeal to them. Then
the discrimination is obvious. But in
the matter Of country editors the city
up the river used bad judgment. AS
a matter of fact the country editor has
made Minneapolis. He drops in there
and talks privately with st. Paul poll
ticians. He has an idea that he is do
ing it mysteriously. And 1t is good
for him and good for the town. Min
neapolis exists because the Northwest
ern editor has conveyed to his readers
an impression that the town is a good
place to go to. But when the country
editors go in body to Minneapolis
they are passed up by the people and
press.
The moral is obvious. For many
years the country editors have met in
conclave in st. Paul We understand
and appreciate them. We even go ont
OF our way to show our appreciation.
not because they will eventually be
useful to us, but because we know and
like them. We have no sympathy with
them in their present plant, because
they did not have to go to Minneapolis.
Why not meet where old friends and
old faces will make for a welcome?

CALLS PRESIDENT A
DANGEROUS MAN
Congressman Fitzgerald Ex.
presses Himself as to a
Larger Navy.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 19.-The
house today began consideration Of the
naval appropriation bill, ten hours be-
ing allowed for general debate. Mr..
Fitzgerald (Dem., N. W declared that
our naval programme was to procure
naval force greater than that of Ger
many. He further said:
In all sections Of the country the
CONVICTION, rightfully or wrongly. is
nrm that the present occupant Of the
mite house is apt to involve us in war
with some other nation" adding that
the same belief had been had with re-
spect to the head Of another great ma
tlon' which may account for the fact
that at dinner on Lincoln's birthday
at Grand Rapids, Mich, the highest
compliment that Baron Won Sternberg
thought that he could pay to President
roosevelt was to declare that he very
greatly resembled the emperor of Ger
many. If the prevailing belief is iusti-
ned. and if the president is to be given
1our years of power in his own right
now that the great representative Of
the conservative force of the Renuh-
mean party Mr.. Hanna, is gone to his
reward, 1t may be wise for us to outdo
even Great Britain in her naval pro-
gramme. Should he (the president)
not De made to feel that the sentiment
OF the country is for peace and NOT for
strife?" nv III
Mr.. Foss made an urgent appeal for
the upbuilding of the navy, emphasize
ing the necessity Of ship construction
IN times of peace with the query:
w nat would Russia give today if she
could call back some of her sunken
shlps?' He said that when it became
necessary for his government to strike
IL should be prepared to strike a blow
Ike that struck by Dewey at Manila.
Mr.. Foss was strongly seconded by Mr..
meyer (La), the ranking Democratic
member on the committee, who COM
batted the statement that the navy was
toPneaVy, as charged, and declared it
indispensable that we should have a
strong navy. Referring to the Panama
canal he said he was for the canal and
also Tor navy to safeguard it.
The house passed a bill amending the
land laws so that in a county which
lies IN two land districts proof may be
made at the county seat of such county
for either district.

At St. Paul Theaters

The presentation of "Red Feather
at the Metropolitan is notably diStin-
guished from preceding musical enter
tainments by reason of the yerve and
mus1c1anly finish with which the score
is interpreted by orchestra and singers
The opera is conducted by SCR. di
Novell1s, who is uneXcelled, if indeed
he is equaled, by any comic opera di-
rector in this country. A veteran in
experience, SCR. di Novellis imparts
an enthusiastic spirit to the musicians
and singers alike that results in an
adequate revelation Of all the music
the opera contains.
The production of Red Feather is
likewise notable for the rich costum-
ing Of the chorus, particularly in the
second act, when the girls display a
dazzling array of beautiful gowns as
they slowly sweep down the broad
staircase, range themselves in front of
the footlights, turn about and slowly
reascend the stairs. The repeated out
bursts of applause testify to the rec
ognttion of the elaborate costumes
Today's matinee and this evenings
performance will close the engagement
of RED Feather"
Miss Marie Wainwright will play one
performance only at the Metropolitan
opera house tomorrow night, present
ing a grand production of Twelfth
Night" 1t has been some TIME since
Miss Wainwright was seen in this city,

ance tonight.
Beginning tomorrow night and run
ming all week, with a special matinee
on Monday, the Orpheum show will
hold the boards at the Grand. This is
an entertainment made up of the best
vaudeville acts that can be procured.
The Rose Sydell company will close
successful engagement at the Star
tonight, giving place to Harry Morris
company, Of which the Minneapolis
Times says: Few better musical
comedies have been seen in the higher
priced houses of the city and never
has better been seen at the Dewey.
The plot and lines are very clever, the

pany excellent. Harry Morris as the

has been completely routed, that his
whereabouts is unknown, and that his
cause is hopeless. The recent fight at

ed by revolutionists firing on a flag Of
