Would Dust All Mayors.

Mayors of Iowa cities and towns will
become obsolete II the law reforms
proposed by the bar association of
Iowa are favorably considered by the
legislators. The annual convention of
the state bar association will be held
July IA and Is, and among the meas
ures that will be offered at this time
will be one to abolish the Office of
mayor in Iowa municipal cities and to
vest municipal government in the
hands Of three men who will perform
the duties of mayor and council. 1t
is proposed that these men receive suf-
ficient salary to permit them to devote
their entire time to the duties of their
Office. Another reform will be along
the line OF prohibition Of persons unfit
to enter the matrimonial state. This
does not mean physical examination,
but the disqualification of those noto-
riously unfit for the married state.

Brought the Horse Back.

A stricken coscience or fear of
the majesty of the law has restored a
valuable blooded horse, cart, harness
and a saddle to A. R. Flanders, a
wealthy young farmer living near
Sergeants Bluff. One morning, when
Mr.. Flanders went to his. barn, a valu-
able black racing horse had been stol-
en-. He notified the sheriff and towns
all around Sioux City were informed of
the theft. A few mornings later when
Mr. Flanders went to his barn he
found his pretty black racer standing
in the stall as if it had never been mo-
Tested. He was greeted with a IA
miliar and friendly nickering from the
animal. The thief had brought back
the entire outfit, smashed the lock on
the barn and tied up the horse where
he had found 1t.

HAPPENINGS IN IOWA
EVENTS OF A WEEK THROUGH.
OUT THE STATE.
Iowa Came to the Front in Great style
on the States Day at the Worlds
Fair and Crowds Of Hawkeyes
Visited the Exposition.

At ST. Louis, Iowa came to the front
last Friday and its citizens visited the
worlds fair in throngs. Liberal ad-
vertising and reduced railroad rates
had the effect of attracting larger at
tendance than any state day except
Missouri day has done.
The military parade formed at the
Iowa state pavilion and marched to
the Iowa monument at the head of the
cascades, on the Terrace of States.
The monument was presented to
Iowa by Isaac S. Taylor, director of
works Of the exposition, and accepted
by Commissioner Leroy A. Palmer of
Mount Pleasant, Ia The parade then
reformed and countermarched to the
state pavilion, where the formal pro-
gramme was carried out Addresses
were made by Governor Albert B. Cum
minis, former Governor William LARA
bee, president of the Iowa worlds
fair commission; Thomas D. Healy Of
Fort Dodge and President David r.
Francis of the exposition.

--~fessors Are Compelled to Resign.
The designations of A. H. Sims, pro.
lessor of engineering, and A. L. An.
drews, professor of chemistry, were
asked for last week by the board of re-
gents of Iowa university at Iowa City.
This action was the elimination of
the boards investigation of the
charges recently made against Profess
sor MacLean. MacLean was exonerat-
ed. Sims and Andrews were alleged
to have been active in the campaign
against MacLean The board of re.
gents declare they found no sufficient
cause for any change in the presidency.
The resolutions adopted charge Sims
and Andrews with conspiracy against
MacLean to cause the alumni institu-
ton to demand his resignation. TWEEN
ty members of the faculty were called
into executive council and all but one
made statements against MacLean.
Sims and Andrews were given no OPP
portunity to defend themselves against
the charges, their dismissal being per-
emptOry.

Make Walters Quit Union.

Open shop was declared last week
by the Restaurant Proprietors' associa-
ton Of Des MONIES, who gave their en-
ployes the alternative either Of re-
nouncing the union or losing their
Jobs. The proposition was presented
to $50 walters, half of whom stayed by
the union, while the other half chose
to remain at work. The employers
have imported waters from neighbor-
ing towns to supply the deficiency and
the restaurants are all open.

Balance of Trade Talk.

Dui1bR Uue pdSG Gnree years,
we have shipped cotton, wheat and
other products in the amount of 49,
72l, 142, l59 more than we have import
ed. For this we should have received
IN precious metals to balance the
account, 1921, JAP, l59; but instead of
an import of coin or bullion to paw
this balance Of trade, we have for the
same period exported s4o9, 29l, 125 more
than we have imported and are still
exporting vastly more of the precious
metals, coin and bullion than we are
importing. This makes a grand total
of 81, 100, 1882 of cotton, wheat, farm
products, manufactured goods and
precious metals exported for which
nothing mas been received.
The Indebtedness OF individuals, of
cities, states, railroads and other cor
porations owed in Europe amounts
to over $40, GOO, 900, 900 over $40, 900, Ooo,-
600 OF which is owing to English
money lenders, requiring s4OO, 1000, 900
to pay the'ann1al interest, and until
the balance Of trade is in excess of
the interest upon this volume Of debt
there will be no returns. What it
means is that our fields and factories
are being stripped to pay the interest
due to the money lenders of Europe.
1t means that the backs of our masses
are bent with the task that has broken
and BUNDLED the Egyptians and has
desolated India. Legislation in the
interest OF the privileged classes in
the way of tariffs and banks are re-
ducing the people of the states to
tenantry as the law of entail reduced
to tenantry the people of England,
ireland and Scotland. In Iowa we
already have 10000 tenant farmers
with little hope Of better things for
them. Foreign money lenders under
these laws are fast coming into posses
sion of the property uf our once
prosperous citizens. They own ma
jority of the stock of our railroads,
they own fifty million acres of land
along the Northern Pacific Railroad
Lord Scully owns 80. 900 acres in Logan
and SaDgamon counties in Illinois
upon which they have the system Of
rack rent that prevails in Ireland.
An island of $4,000 acres in Lake
Superior. the most beautiful and pro-
ductive land in Michigan belongs to
some English lord. Thus our lands,
the natural homes of the people, are
passing into the hands of the money
lenders of the world who absorb the
entire products of labor in the exac-
lions made for interest thus cancelling
the balance OF trade Of which we often
hear orators in tireless liberation
boast.
