are all dry and smooth as there is no

by using these drags, for the farmers

There are two i'm use on my route OF
twenty-four miles, with sixty-flve pa
irons. One plank drag on the same
principle as the split log run by O..
j. Early, during May. 1t was used on
graveled roads, and leveled them up
in fine shape G. w. Ebling and Grille
Miller have two common split fence
posts made in a mud drag, they used it
on three-fourths of mile of dirt road
after each rain during the early part
of the summer and they have the best
stretch of black dirt roads / travel
They use three horses and ride the
drag and it certainly does fine work,
levels up all the ruts that We're left
from the spring thaw. In my estima-
ton based on the conditions of this
piece of road, if the farmers would
work on the roads with King drag a
few hours after each rain, during May,
there would be the best roads around
this little city of any town In the state.
Hoping the farmers will use these
drags more and make greater efforts in
the future to improve the roads

4 Il The Cedar Rapids Republican, not
4bly Cumminsphobist gazing analyt-
Sally at the field of gubernatorial pos
& lhilities finds much that would recon-
jSeila it to third term Of the present
state administration. It says:
Is "A third term of Cummins would be
Y beacon light ard joy compared with
]Ieven one term of some of the men who
have been suggested for his succession.
Mr.. Cumnins talks great deal most
of the time, and he veers about great
deal, and he has other faults. but he
also has some virtues that cannot he
found In sonle of the men who have
been mentioned as his successor.
Not that the Republican loves the
governor more, but that it loves others
less and fears them most. One of the
main things the Republican alleges
against Mr.. ,-ummins is that he talks
!. q great deal, most of the time" Per-
laps the mere fact that he talks does

i by refusing them his eountenanre
I'D approval. The disanproval of yils
3 action to which tie Republican ~,
3 longs rests upon matters outside the
conduct Of the affairs of the state.
Sore, disgruntled and disappointed the
Republican recognizes perforce the
square deal that has reigned in the
state house during Cummins' two
terms and bears witness to the gov
ernor's virtues.
The Republican is not first in the
suggestion of a third term for Cum
minis. Such suggestion has been NUT
tiplied by the county press of the
state until ii partakes of the nature of
IA popular demand. If more standpat
papers join with the Republican in its
insistence on third term for the pres
ent governor il may be that Mr.. Cum
minis will fnd it impossible to refuse

The Waterloo Reporter is unquali-
fiedly opposed to the plan of lengthen-

arel long enough" it asserts. IF the

may elect for governor some man who
can stay at home and spend six days
in the week looking after the duties
of his station. Wouldn't Iowa be proud
of a governor whose opinions no one
outside of the state cared to hear or
take into account?"
"The reason the recent Chicago reci-
procity conference is receiving so
much more attention in Iowa than
in other states is easily explained" de-
clares the Sioux City Journal "The
conference was sort Of Iowa institu-
ton. 1t is a fresh illustration of what
General Hancock said about the tariff.
At the same time, it IS not generally
supposed in Iowa that other states will
be excluded when the policy Of the
country comes to be changed"
The Marion Register, referring to the
reciprocity conference, says: "The
country is too prosperous, the people
too busy, to get excited. The tariff
smashers, the reciprocity advocates
and rate makers are welcome to all
the chickens that will ever come to life
in their incubators They will never
be able to start a premium hennery

shanghaied, for which they will have
no one to either thank or blame but

eral weeks, selecting candidates for

on successor to Thomas S. Martin
In the United states senate. Leading
democratic papers both inside and out
side the state are commenting enthus-
iastically on the excellence of the
primary system as an expression of

these papers, was in response to an
overwhelming public demand. Under
the old convention system, with the
party machinery in the hands of a
comparatively few politicians, the
people felt that they did not have a

Virginia to such pass that the demo-
cratic rank and file, Disguised with it's

late primary campaign in Virginia, the
