PUTTING OUT POISON.

AS a consequence of the publication
OF one Of the interviews" for which
the Des Moines Capital has become
famous in lett-handed fashion, Lieu
tenant Governor Guild, of Massachu-
sets, has written letter OF plain de-
gnial to Governor Cunmins. Some lit
tie time since the Capital published a
dispatch dated at Osceola, In which
Hon. M L. Temple. loquitur, repeated
an alleged statement purported to have
been made by Lieutenant Governor
Guild to Temple and others. Governor
Guild was reported as criticisms Gov
ernor Cummills as an embarrassment
to Massachusetts republicans. Demo-
Gratis were making use and quotation
ment of the republican campaign in
Massachusetts. The fake was taken up
by standpat papers and rolled as
sweet morsel under the tongues of the
enemies of the state administration.
Willing and anxious correspondents
wired it east, and finally Governor
Guild read ii In the Boston Herald
with surprise and angry contempt.
Then he wrote to Governor Cum
Minis:
Your Iowa enemies published in the
Morning Herald a statement that your
speeches were being used to embarass
the republicans of Massachusetts,
have stated publicly that your
speeches We're not being used and that
the republicans were not being embar-
raised.
On the contrary, your telegram OF
hearty congratulations was one of the
warmest received by me.
When the Webster City Freeman
Tribune admonished the Capital to the
effect that "a liar needs long mem-
ory,' it might have added that he US
ually gets caught at 1t. The Capital
has been caught time and again. Eek

When fifty young men escort one OF

Our medical journals are full of d.

children. Some of our young mothers
are even Weighing and measuring
solids and liquids to be fed thin babies.
Half n dozen or more foods for babies
are ON the markets and predigested
substances are the order of the day.
So it naturally set the writer "a
thinl1in,'" to watch two young Ger
man women in an Iowa store recently.
A nursing baby was being carried
around IN the mothers arms. Just big

to doubt his personal honesty. we
see much reason to doubt that he can
by any possibility properly at the
present time represent Iowa.
In this emergency what is tho proper
thing to be done? To those who as1ee
with Shaw in his political ideas there
rs no question Of doubt TO those who

ton Is hard one. State pride Is
something. Political expediency Is
something. To fight negative battle
against Shaw with no opposing candi-

full Three years will pass before the
next presidential election, ana Two
years before the campaign for the

who better represents its people. " nc

the family and was spl1rned in death

FOOTBALL FAULTS.

President Eliot, OF Harvard, oppos-
ing foot ball, objects to the methods
Of playing the game. Ambuscade, sur
prise and superior force, while legiti-
mate and justified methods Of war,
have, he says, NO place in a manly
snort or game. IIe also objects to
roofing" as carried on by sympathiz-
ers and supporters of the conflicting
teams.
It is a little hard to understand just
what President Eliot wants in foot
ball. While war, business, love and the
great businesses Of life are carried on
with force and strategy, ambuscade

to eliminate all these from our sports
and diversions. Life is mostly force and
strategy and no sport that does not in

Geneva, Oct 2S-And still the land
seekers come and go. On the train
south from Marshalltown the other
night were several men from Powe-
shiek and Iowa counties just return
ing from Winnipeg, Can, where they
had made investments large or
small. These men represented all
kinds of business and professional oc-
equations and while small per cent
of them may become subjects Of King
Edward, certain and sure it is that the
money TO pay for this land, at least
the first and second payments, will
come from the Golfers Of King Corn.
One of the party thought he would
not &c to Canada to live on account
of the terrible poor cigars and smok-
ing tobacco sold in that country. He
says, we'll known brands of five cent
cigars here, sell for 10 or 10 cents
there, and that our "twofers" are

The southern states that crave i'm

ton Ariny's scheme of colonization
The army seems to have suffered a
check In Australia where the Aus
tralian premier has been the object OF
oxpostulatory petition against admis-
sion OF furt1e,. immigration OF the
class aided by the army. The coming
Of the Canadian winter has checked
oerations in that direction. Now the
south Is being urged to welcome the
stransplanting of several Thousand
families Of The. English poor. 1t is
urged that the proposed e1nigrants are
Of class readily to be asstmilated by
the south and that while poor they are
selected families, free from disease,
hopeful Of better things and willing to
work and in general likely to develop
Into good citizens.
It wo' lie aru experiment worth
watching. I i.s,l,owever, not without
Its chance of failure. The south is
anxious for a higher class of laborels
and small farmers but the individual
southerner is prone to class the white
man who does manual labor or oper-
sates small farm with the poor
white trash and negroes he despises.
This and the southern climate would
be against the English emigrant. Some
one said that two generations resi-
slerce in San Domingo would send the
ragged descendants of Massachusetts,
ministers to Sunday cockfghts with a
rooster under each arm. The English

have to fight contempt and the climate

AN ACT or INTOLERANCE.
LIowa City Republican,


1t appears that the day of intoler-
ance has not fully passed, when a
Christian conference, intended to In
clude all denominations, deliberately
votes to exclude one denomination.
The Unitarians have played an impor-
tant part In the development of all
that is best in government. charity,
social reforms and all movements
that are for the general good The
last fifty years has witnessed re-
mnrkable transition of Christian SELL
timent. What the Methodists now
believe. or do not believe, practically
removes the church from where il
stood fifty years ago SO it is with
most OF the denominations. Practic-
ally nobody now believes IN many
things that generation ago We're
considered essentials to active mem
bership in many of the churches,
We are living in a better and purer
atmosphere. Liberality now takes
the place where bigotry once reigned'
and though many may not admit II
there Is not much division between
the orthodox churches and those
called liberal And why should there
be any division? 1t is this modern
spirit of liberality that lends the rank
and file of the churches to rebei
against the action that rejected such
men as Edward Everett Hale and for
mer Governor John d. Long OF Massa-
chusetts from the Christian congress.
