Came beside his bed, that night,
yelled stranger tall and bright,
To Ben Ezra said Arise;
Look We now with other eyes;
Gaze upon your high estate,
Marvel al your wisdom great
Saying which the stranger bowed;
Vanished straightway in a cloud
Quick Ben Ezra rose and then.
With the eyes of other men,
Turned to look in high delight
At the radiant, glorious sight.
Looked and peered and looked again;
Searching for himself in vain
For behold! He was so small

AN IOWA cry VIEW.

TConant In Iowa City Republican,
The business end of the university
and its propaganda should be in the
hands of a hard headed, practical bus
mess man without patroni2ing airs,
and TO whom the smell of sweat and
the sight of grimy hands are not dis
tasteful. for practically ali the people
OF Iowa, those who send legislators
to Des Moines anyway. eat their bread
in the sweat of their broWs and want
practical education for their children.
Secretary Of State Agriculture Will
son, long connected with Ames, is a
past master of practical politics, and
the late DR.. Beardshear, for years
president of that institution, was not
slow in this respect, and he let his
shirt front suffer rather than to take
his eyes off the game.
You have heard that story of the
late Mark Hanna on his last return
TO Washington, at the suggestion of
a friend that he should have been talk
ing a vaca ton instead of watching the
political situation in Ohio. 1t was
about the Old deacon who returned
home one evening, with copious evil
dence of tobacco juice on his shirt
front. Hts wife met him with the
scornful remark, Cant you turn your
head to spit. John?" Not when 1 am
in game with these chaps" was the
rejoinder
The policy iraugurated by the above
gentlemen of always keeping the prac-
teal side of their institution before
the public is what has aided the SEN
ators to reach the certain conclusions
from certain supposed facts, and the
widely advertised impractical side of
the State University has been pow
erful influence in helping this conclu-
sion.

charge in the monthly magazine called
the Bookman: .
A rather startling instance of editors
and owners combining to deceive the
public was seen when President McKin-

many that he could not live; yet the
newspapers Of the country suppressed the
truth and kept the nation in suspense

against the inevitable slump in stocks.
The charge that 10000 newspapers, the

creased, and It was natural for eau
tiousness to come to the front and tim

Here was the chance for Lawson, who
for months had been fighting the big
men, to strike such a blow as would
preclpitate the crash that would have
come anyway in time, and incidentally
to bring himself into the limelight,
while handing blow to his enemies.
Thus it has come to be believed that
Lawson is a mighty man, who has only
to shake red rag in the street to put
the big men to rout. But there have
been more daring men than Lawson in
the street who fourished for a time and
came to grief in the end, for it is a
fierce game, and while the victory to
date is with the Boston plunger. it is
apparently long fight as yet only fair

MIR. Buckman's Vindication.

Congressman @. B. Buchanan has won
a great victory in the courts.
The state brought suit against Mr..
Buchanan on account Of certain timber
trespass accounts, asking double or
treble the value Of the timber as
penalty. A demurrer to the complaint
having been filed, Judge Kelly of St.
Paul holds that the penalty feature of
the suit is barred by the statute of
limitations. After three years have
passed, the state can recover only the
actual value Of the timber.
Let the news be carried to the re-
hottest corners Of the great sixth dis
trlct, to the loyal constituents of Con-
gresham Buchanan. The honorable
member from the sixth has been vim
dicated. He promised the people that
he would win. It looked dark for q

There is one small point left to de-

The state may yet collect what the
timber was actually worth. The former
settlement realized $4,000 on the five
cases OF trespass scaled, which the
cruisers had estimated at $5,35l.O3. The
attorney general now claims that the
timber was worth about four times the

One Thing at a. Time.

The question before the house is: Shall
Minneapolis issue bonds for a filtration
plant, or continue to take the water sup
ply as it comes, typhoid germs and allT
The comparative merits of different
methods Of filtration are not involved
An this question. They should be elim1-
mated, by common consent, from the
present discussion. The ime-honored
Esecipe for cooking a hare begins with
the requirement that the hare be pro-
Ivided. It is just as foolish to discuss
ways of spending the money before the
money is provided, as to study rules for
cooking before the game is in sight.
Since the unfortunate failure to carry
the bond propositions at the polls, two
Legislative bodies must decide the .ques-
tion. They are not called on to decide
how the money is to be spent until they
have provided the money.
Discussion has been started as to the
relative merits of gravity and mechan-
heal filters. The talk has all the ap-
pearance of a premature campaign in
behalf Of the mechanical system. The
city commission recommended the gray
ity plan, and so an issue is raised that
has no place in the present discussion.
1t is mischievous and misleading di-
version. No one has q corner on sand.
Nature uses this oldest of filters in pro-
ducing the best brand Of sparkling
spring water. 1t may be that liberal
supply of alum or other chemical, as
used by the mechanical filters, may i'm
prove. the flavor. That is matter of
taste, and may be decided later, much
better than now. To urge and reiter-
ate the merits Of mechanical filtration
at this time is not only premature, but
it raises a reasonable question in the
public mind, as to the disinterested
character Of such statements. The
presence in the city at this stage, of
men who are agents for patent devices,
would lend color to such suspicion.
One thing at a time, please. In the
name Of the public health and civic well
fare, let all such side discussions be
dropped, and all hands join in the cam
.paign for the filter bonds.

The Grand Rapids Magnet makes a
timely protest against the head hunters
who scour the northern woods for moose,
and having killed their game leave the
carcasses for wolves to feed on. The Mag
net says: "These animals are of great
value as food supply to the settlers of
our country, and should never be allowed
to be butchered simply to supply sports
men with trophies Of the chase" The
remedy suggested is an amendment to
the game laws requiring hunters who kill
moose TO bring their game out Of the
woods entire. 1t would be hard to draft an
effective law Of this kind, but hunters
should be ashamed of such wanton
slaughter.
