tended to the contrary, special inter-
ests have become so strong in their
representation in the upper branch
of the congress and in the lower
branch also, for that matter, that
party interests and the public inter-

insstent demands for the retention
of privileges which they enjoy or for
the exploitation of pet schemes for

is but natural. under such a condition,

A good many years ago. In New
England town, lived u boy, born of
Christian parents. From the boys
earliest remembrance he was compelled
to go to church. There were services
at 10 a. M, Sunday school at noon. reg
ular services again at y. M, and reg
ular services again at p. m. Three
sermons each Sunday, at least OF an
hours length. This was the Sunday
program of a Congregational church
in New England. in those days. And
this boy. let it be said thus acquired
IL church going habit that sticks to
him to this day. One of the most In
terestng sermons that still fingers in
memory, dates back to that time 1t
was a word painting of hell. An an

DOES 1T PAy7

Walsh, the Chicago banker, is down
and out. He is an old man and can
never recover his place among finan-
ciers. Generally when crash like his
occurs the man caught beneath 1t never
RECEIVERS. Walsh's power is gone with
his financial pre-eminence. He had no
other claim on greatness. Stripped of
his wealth he is an aging man among
half-million other aging men. And
with his money went such satisfaction
as he was able to feel. He never knew
content.
Finance is a glacier. It's icy peaks
grow sharper and harder to climb, its
footholds more treacherous as the
summit nears and men grow old.
Walsh's foot slipped and he lies among
the wrecks that line the glaciers foot.
He had his chance and failed. Perhaps
not essentially dishonest, his greed
drove him like goad. Years and years
ago he was worth more millions than
he could have spent legitimately in a
hundred lifetimes. Why should he in
wife disaster in his old age by attempt
ing to pile more upon his trembling
column of gold?
It costs too much. Walsh paid his
whole life for his chance. He ruined
his health, spent his happiness and de-
MED his soul to get richer, and when
an old man of 20 he finds himself ruin
ed and alone and hopeless, like his pro-
totype in politics, he can look back and
say: Life isn't worth WHILE
Men who trade valuable for worth
less things are esteemed foolish. To
exchange beauty for hideousness,
garments for rags to buy the lees with
pure wine is the height of folly. But
that is what Walsh did when he traded
the true opportunities of life for few
days Of greedy satisfaction. 1t doesn't

an UNFORTUNATE coNFEssloN.

LATE Young says that ''the primary
election has been enacted for the evil
dent purpose OF maintaining one fac
ton Of the republican party in power"
A close analysis Of this confession will
show that 1t Is one of the most unfor-
tunate confessions any man ever made.
{ - lawyer always watches his opponent
to catch just such slip Of the tongue
/ IN argument that will give him away.
II the primary election law in Wis
consirl was enacted for this purpose,
and il it fulfills it's purpose, then it
follows that that is the purpose of such
aa law in Iowa. II that is the purpose
OF the law and if LATE Young is or,-
posed to It, then 1t follows that Mr.
Young does not think it would maintain
In power that faction of the republi-
can, party to which he belongs. Mr..
Young then thinks and admits that
sif the nominating power were delegated
to the people, his faction would be put
out OF business. This Is an admission
that the Blythe wing of the republican
party can not maintain it's hold by the
feferendum. Could any advocate of
primary law make better argument
Tor It than one Of its bitterest oppon-
ents has made by admission?
Z The people Of Iowa have a right to
say how they shall be governed, and
who shall represent them. If the refer
,enduIn plan results in endorsing the
faction that claims the right to repre-
sent the people, what better argument
can be urged in favor of the plan?
Mr.. Lacey in his Bloomfield speech,
made the same admission by indirec-
ton. He sneered at the results of p1i-
mary elections by calling attention to
the fact that In South Carolina, Miss
issippi. and Arkansas, it had resulted
An retaining the Tillmans, the Varda-
mans and the Jeff Davis?
Such an illustration is thoroughly
dishonest and was meant to be, but it
proves too much. It proves that by
means OF the primary law in these
three states the people are able to
maintain in office the very men that
the people want, and this is the prirn-
ary and ultimate object of primary
election law. It does not detract from

stories have added almost as much to
their fame as their products of oratory

There was Congressman Hamilton Of
his colleagues about his last meeting
with Private John Allen, ex-congress-
man from Tupelo, Miss.
How large is that town Of Tupelo?"
said Hamilton, "is what l asked the

"'About the size of New York" was
his thoughtful response. There's Il

regards they're about the same size

me MATTER Of personal AMslTloH.

Ex-Governor Odell, of New York
charges President Roosevelt and Gov
ernor Higgins with deliberately at
tempting to disrupt the republican
party in that state with a view to fur
thering their own personal ambitions
/. The ex-governor predicts the wreck OF
y the party and puts the responsibility
upon the president and present govern
or. For himself he Is for. harmony
and says 'If President Roosevelt had
/ the good of the party at heart he could
8 have sent for me at any time and
would havebeen glad to confer with him
for the sake OF obtaining harmony" 1t
appears, however, that the president
attempted to struggle along without
him and now disaster, disruption and
God knows what else stares the repub-
lican party in the face. President
/. Roosevelt's personal ambition" and
selfish interests have brought the party
to the jumping off place.
The clamor from New York strikes
Iowa with nc unfamiliar sound. AS
N New York we are hearing much of
sperssnal ambitions" Is a statewide
primary proposed We learn that its
only purpose is to secure another term
fer Cnmmins;' It is also to assist him
{ In defeating Captain Hull for congress;

ate over, Thu .,hoary head Of Allison; ar
anti pass bill is to feed his desire for
\ vengeance upon the railroads. All Leg
\ isiation favored by the present gov
ernor reyolves about his personal ann
bitions." Like Roosevelt in the ma
ation, Cummins in the state is disrupt
ing the republican party by a clean
administration and by breaking the
records Of republican majorities at the
\ polls.
This clamor Of personal ambitions"
I Is the cry of the frightened and defeat
ID political boss. In Iowa as in New
York there have been and are those
perfectly willing to be sent for at any
time and to point out the secret high
way to harmony. They have not been
.sent for and the wreck of matter and
the crash Of worlds is due to begin any
time.
These bosses do not seem to under
stand what hurts them. Not Roose-
svelt's personal ambitions" not selfish
ness on the part of LaF'ollette, Cum
minis and the others who have refused
to pay the price OF dishonor for har-
smony. but the will of the voters. They
are being pinched by the square deal.
We're one-third of the republican party
to fall away from Roosevelt with the
bosses, he might still be elected to any
office in the gift Of the people by pop
ular vote. In the event that Mr.. Cum
Minis should be honored with another
candidacy for governor he could poll
more votes than there are voters in the
republican census of Iowa. Each has
been president Of all his people, gov
ernor Of his whole state. Self serving
men whose personal ambitions" are
their moving motives do not achieve
such general popularity and earn such
complete popular trust.
