amendment finally modified meant

said that II any specific charges were
brought in they should be looked into
by congress, but thar the demand
should not be made a part OF a general

speeches were made by Messrs. Teller

were such as TO make an inquiry i'm

charged members Of congress with be-

Bourke Cochran is authority for
the statement that it cost $4,000,
600 to elect Mckinley in 1896. IL
it cost $16,O0O,O00 to elect McKin-
ley, who put it up?
The answer to this question is
readily suggested by knowledge Of
the ones who have profited by Re-
publican rule.
The money was obtained largely
by the process known as "fat-frying"
from the manufacturers who are pro-
tected by the American tariff wall
and the trusts. The moneyed inter-
ests of Wall street also contributed.
That the contribution Of cam
paign fund Of this proportion was
money we'll spent by the trusts and
tariff barons is proven by the i'm
munity from law they have enjoyed
since Mckinley took his seat down
to this time. The Attorney General
has refused to prosecute the violators
Of the antitrust laws and the tariff
schedules have remained unchanged
in spite Of the fact that American
made goods are selling cheaper
abroad than at home. In short,
they have lead pipe cinch on the
American market, which is hemmed

ladies, handsome in face and figure
and a general favorite among teach
ers and students. She is a lady who
possesses broad collegiate training

confined to those as reciter or an
entertainer. She is graduate of
Cornell college, and has the degree
of Phi. b., given her in 1892, and
the degree of PHI. NJ, given in 1895.
She graduated from the Columbia

school assistant at Parker, S. d., in
1928, is graduate student in ora
tory and English from Northwestern
university in 1884, and was assis-
tant high school principal in Man
chester from 1894 to 1896. Her
connection with the faculty of the
Iowa State Normal school dates from
1897.
Miss Pierce is considered to be
one Of the most accomplished read
ers and impersonators in the state,
and has been called frequently to
the leading cities of the state to take
part in entertainments. She has a

midshipmen, paymaster, surgeon,
three engineer cadets and eight boat

Those who went down with the bat

non commissioned officers. 1t is not
known yet in this case how many of

Standing Pat.

The Republican conventions in
Ohio and Iowa have offered their
opponents an admirable ready-made
issue. 1t remains to be seen wheth-
er the Democrats will have wisdom
enough to take advantage of it.
In both these conventions the
stand-patters were in absolute con-
troll, and they used their power ruth
lessly. Last years feeble sprouts
Of neutrality-suspicious. were trampl-
ed into the ground. Gov. Cum
minis of Iowa was brought to the
platform with halter around his
neck and made humbly to recant
his heresies. In mockery the name
Of Mckinley was attached to a pol
icy that Mckinley had repudiated
in the last speech Of his life.
Secretary Shaw told the Iowa Con-
vention that the chief issue of the
campaign would be the Democratic
charge that American goods were
sold cheaper abroad than at home.
He added that while this was true
in a way yet this claim could be
proved only as to one-thirtieth of
American goods sold abroad"
Perhaps Mr.. Shaw did not realize
exactly what he was doing. He
was telling an audience of farmers
that the great bulk Of our exports,
consisting chiefly Of farm products,
got no benefit from the tariff, which
worked solely to the profit of the
trusts controlling small fraction of
those exports-say $46,O00,0OO,o
out Of $l,400,O00,O00 worth. Mr..
Shhw's figures are absurdly under
stated, but, accepting them as they
stand, how can Iowa be made to
like them? All the farmers wheat
and corn, his cattle, his pork, his
dairy products-everything he pro-
duces-sell in the home market at
foreign prices. But the protected
manufacturer is able to sell at home
at an artificial price above that he
can get from the foreigner.
Mr.. Shaw seems to think that he
has disposed Of the American con-
sumer's grievance if he can show
that the volume of cheap sales
abroad is small. But the grievance
is not SO much low prices abroad as
high prices at home. Whether the
surplus sold abroad by the trusts be
large or as small as Secretary Shaw
asserts, the fact that they can sell it
cheaper than they sell the same
goods to the domestic consumer
proves that they are keeping the
whole enormous home market on an
artificially high level. The Iowa
Republicans truly said two years ago
that the trusts are enabled to do
SO by the tariff, concerning which
the only Republican programme is
