DAWSON TO STUDENTS
Speaks to Political Science Glass on
Work of Congress-.

Work OF Congress-.
Iowa City, Nov. 24.-The class III
political science at the State Univers-
ity, which is taking course OF
study on the actual workings OF the
American government, listened to an
hours talk yesterday morning by Con-
gresham A. F. Dawson on the work
of the committees on appropriations
of the two houses, Of congress. He
explained in detail how congress
spends the money out Of Uncle Sans
vast pocketbook.
ut Is popular fallacy," he said, ito
suppose that these great bills which
annually appropriate from 100000, 900
to $s0O,000,000 are wrought out on tho
floor of the house and senate; that
the making Of these important laws is
done largely in public debate. Moth
ing could be farther from the truth,
These great measures are framed and
perfected in the quiet Of the commit
tee rooms, and the amendments which
are made on the floor Of the two
houses. are, on the whole, comparative
~ unimportant."

and a few other large farms, the com
in this vicinity is nearly all in crib
and but little will be left in the field at
the close OF this week.
But for the wind and hail, the yield
in the west half of the county would
have averaged over fifty bushels to the
acre. 1t is uneven, however. Some
pieces turn out only thirty to thirty
five bushels, these being fields which
were hit by hail and wind on the night
of September 10. Where here was no
hail but heavy wind, the yia,l is from
forty to forty-five bushels, and fields

~ distasteiul to her; as they would
be to any we'll bred young Ameri-
can woman. It may we'll be imag-
fned, too, that it is all distastefnl
to her father, the president, though
it cannot be denied that to q GER
tain extent he invited it by allow
ing her to be a guest on what was
purely an official excursion.
Perhaps the phase Of the whole
affair which has most Importance
is the seeming inclination Of a Ger.
tain section OF the American press
and OF a great number Of Ameri-
can people to look upon Miss
Roosevelt as the citizens Of an he
reditary monarchy would look
upon a crown princess. This ten
dency is one which deserves re-
buke.
We have neither kings nor
crown princesses here. The in.
clination Of hysterical or syco-
phantic people to worship at the
feet OF the children Of the man
who happens for the moment to
be president is an unhealthy and
nm American one. It has been
shown most vividly with reference
to Miss Roosevelt, yet it extends
to other children Of the president.
A dispatch, for example, recently
told OF one Of his sous riding in a
locomotive cab, and reported that
when he alighted men pressed
around to shake his hand. Doubt
less he Is nice little boy, but
there are many little boys whose
hands men do not press to shake.
There is no particular reason why
they should have done SO with
him.
The president loves the lime
light, and properly so. because q
man without . good opinion Of
himself seldom acquires the good
opinion Of others. But it would
not be q bad idea II he would
exercise his influence over mem
bers Of his family 10 order that
they might not longer depori
themselves as though they were
inheriters Of a crown.

Keep the Brain Active.


The oft-told story about Commo-
dore Vanderbilt and George West
inghouse will never wear ont.
Westinghouse was then trying to
introduce his air brake and finally
secured an interview with the
great chief OF the New York Cen
trail railroad. Westinghouse talk
ed on enthusiastically, Vanderbilt
giving only an occasional grunt to
indicate that he was listening. FL
nally, Vanderbilt interrupted by
asking:
"Young man, do you mean to
say you can stop a train Of cars
with windf"
Westinghouse asserted he could.
"Well, all / can say is' conclu-.
ded the commodore, "that I'm too
busy to listen to id t00lS."
The greatest railroad man of his
time was unable to see anything in
the invention which, almost next
to the discovery Of steam itself,
has most contributed to the devel-
opment and safety Of travel. Van.
derbilt, in this particular, had
what often afflicts great men, and
what many lesser men have in
chronic Iorm-brain blindness.
To every human being the brain
is the one thing Of great value;
compared to it all othervalues are
as nothing. To submit to sloth,
dullness and stupidity - brain
blindness lis mental suicide, which
permits the whole human wreck
to be put away hastily and for all
time. With mental suicide, the
husk Of flesh, with it's grosser ap-
petites, desires, passions, fingers
on, a parody on humanity and an
offense to all men and women who
keep their brains working and
awake.
Some achieve slow mental sui
eide by never tackliAg any subject
which they do not already under
stand. Those who develop their
brains do so BY constantly looking
into things they do not under
stand until they do understand
them. II you only read about
things you already know, only talk
about the things you have talked
about before, only meet people
whose nttermost thoughts yOu
sounded long ago, your mind be.
