Before the Russian spy was shot, the
officer who had captured him insisted
on heart to-h heart talk. You say you
have swallowed number OF plans,
rather than be caught with them In
your possession" he remarked; isn't
eating paper in such quantities rather
hard on the stomach?"
"Oh, no." replied the Russian; Il used
to be the official faster in a breakfast
food actory."-Cincinnat Times Star.

is there anything really genuine in
the way of republicanism that the Mar
shalltown Times Republican will com
iflend?" asks the Hawkeye. Yes, the
national republican platform of 1892. of
1895. or of 1904, the state platform of
1903 or the Perkins plank which was
handed to him by Senator Allison.
We're not hard to please. We object
only to platforms on reciprocity that
will not reciprocate or to standpatters
who call another republican free trad
err because his name is Cummins.
1t might be well il it were generally
understood that under the now law CIV
ing liquor or narcotics to inmates or
graduates" of the inebriate asylums
or to any person who has been commit
ted to an insane hospital is felony
or a $1,000 fine. There should be no
slackness in the enforcement of the law.
1t touches the spot.
Russian surgeons say that the Jap
anese rifle bullets, while possessing
great deal of stopping power. make
small, clean holes. which can be treat
ed easily, and give excellent opportun-
tiles for the early recovery of the
wounded unless some vital organ is
of recovery after the intestines have
been penetrated. Interesting contri-
buttons to surgical science will follow
the ending of hostilities.
There is general feeling among the
minor standpat papers which is finding
more or less expression editorially that
LATE Young and the Cummins hooters
buncoed the really sincere element of
the standpatters when they forced res
olutions representative OF power rather
than of the real sentiment of their fac
ton. The feeling is fairly expressed
by Paul Junken of the Corning Union
Republican himself standpatter from
the Lacey suburb of Standpattersville,
when he says: I'VE have no hesitancy
in expressing the opinion that the reso-
lutions adopted by the state convention
were tactical error on the part of the
element We believe that
the tariff question should have been left
to the national convention. That the
latter will yield something to the de-
mand for tariff revision is scarcely to
be doubted, and If 1t should be stand
patters of Iowa will be placed in an ems
barrassing position, of which the Cum
MINIS people will take full advantage in
the future"
