A POOR EXCUSE.

The Iowa City RepupilcaH Is du-
thority for the statement that elo-
ouence killed the Hughes anti pass
bill If he had said nothing and put
the bin upon it's passage it is the opin-
ion of the Republican that the meas
The Republican in a general way
quotes senators as expressing them
selves to the effect that the bill would
have been passed readily enough had
Mr.. Hughes kept still, but they did
not feel like offering a castigation to
all the state officers and most of the
legislators by voting for the bill
All that is a very strained excuse.
II the bill stood for a principle and a
reform. If the measure was one
which the majority of senators felt
deserved their support. Mr.. Hughes
cloauence cut a small figure pro or
con. The bill was the thing to be con-
sidered. The need and propriety OF
the proposed law and their duty TO
the state should have held the eye of
the senators. The senate was not
called to pass upon Hughes speech,
but upon the Hughes bill.
The more reasonable explanation is
that the senators who defeated the bill
love the cozy feeling OF the mileage
books nesthng In their vest pockets
and are pleased with the crisp rustic
of the trip passes with which their
families. their cousins and their aunts
are supplied by warin-hearted and
generous railway corporations. Doubt
less there were raw spots where the
cleansing douche OF Mr.. Hughes elo-
auence stung and smarted, but every
vince of the CALLED jade would seem
to argue louder for the passage of the
bill than anything Mr.. Hughes may
have said. The anger of the senate
ever Mr.. Hughes arraignrnent may be
taken as a valuable symptomatic aid
to a diagnosis.
There is too much display of anger
by legislative bodies over salutary
criticism. Public Office carries with II
the right of the public to cricise its
incumbent. A bill or report that
carries deserved censure or exposes
improprieties should stir public bodies
to amendment not to anger. A legis-
lature, a congress or city council is
not close corporation doing bust
ness In it's own behalf, but branch
of the public service open to public
criticism. The Hughes bill was not an
attack on the senate or on state off,
GERS, but on a nuisance that is grow
ing and needs abatement.

NEWSPAPERS AND CORRESPONDENTS

Mr.. w. l. Endicott, associate editor
of the Cedar Rapids Gazette addresses
a communication to the Times Repub.-
can which makes Fred H. Gaston's
ton of the kilograms sent by
him to Messrs Endicott and Holmes
appear much less satisfactory than a.
first sight. Judging from the signed
statement of Mr.. Endicott, which APP
pears in another column, Mr.. CASTOR
is due to continue his explanation.
Leaving the individual veracity OF
the two parties to the Endicott- Castor

and the law courts for decision, the in
cident is timely and its effect should
be salutary. The bushwhacking tao

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES,

The Rockford Register hopes it NAV
see Congressman Funk distributing
seeds and postoifices next year.
1t is true as the Register and Leader
observes that The contest for state
wide primaries will not end with the
compromise in behalf of Polk county,
but there are those who will differ
with that paper when ii asserts tina;
the regulated primary Is as much
needed in every other county in the
state as it is in Polk
