MANAGEMENT OF MUNICIPALITIES.

Conditions in the largest city in
Iowa are probably responsible for the
Register and Leaders suggestion of
five-man government for Des Moines.
Conditions in other cities are likely to
give the suggestion force elsewhere.
The average citizen is ready to listen
to plans for non political government.
General belief is growing that city
politics In the common meaning OF the
term Is mistake. Business organi-
cation is teaching an object lesson.
Cities are only business corporations
and city governments only elective
trust companies Marshalltown made
a sensible step when, by common con-
sent, partisan politics was eliminated
from city elections.
Municipalities need business mana
gers, not mayors AS things go the
destinies of cities are too often In
trusted to men who would be unable
to secure the position of business
manager from any private corporation
in their town. And still the duties OF
a mayor are properly the duties of the
manager OF corporation.
The business idea in municipal gov
eminent is one Of which we are likely
to hear much within the next few
years. Political mismanagement, po-
litical corruption and graft have set
citizens looking for a substitute. The
suggestion OF hired mayors, burgo-
masters, or municipal business mana
gers trained to the work of city man
agement as school superintendent or
factory managers are Trained to theirs
is an attractive one.

+ LOOKEk.QN In IOWA !;

Gilman, Oct. 11.-John COwnie' of
the board Of control. also governmental
crop reporter. has lately occupied much
space in the public press. He once
told the writer that he could always
tell when the board of control were
doing something, by the criticisms of
the papers. Assuming that to be the
test. just now there Is something do
ing" His suggestions to call the in
dustrial school-by the way how long
ago was that institution the Reform
School for Boys?-at Eldora, military
school, and the institution at MITCHELL
ville-7formerly a girls reform school
a seminary, he didn't say for young la
dies, probably that is what he means
his whole business, falls fiat, and is
exciting much unfavorable comment.
First and foremost comes the objec-
lions of parents that at present do, OF
propose to, send their children to real
seminaries and real military schools.
Again with the best of intentions, Mr..
Cownie has only advanced an idea,
many times recommended, a favorite
subject with former Superintendent
Miles, of Eldora, that Of place Of de-
tention of the incorrigible and unfor-
tunate children, say under ten or
twelve years of age. Let Mr.. Cownie
stick to that and work it out and he
will have the people with him, unless
he insists on calling 1t, say, divinity
school. There's something doing" in
his crop report discussion with Bro.
Sage. One man pertinently asks:
how it is that the corn crop on the
land at Glenwood needs till the
first Of November without frost"
Did the farmer" of that institution
purposely on Cownie's orders plant his
corn crop the 18th Of June. Another
man says he objects to John Cownisa
taking up so much space in the papers,
and not giving Kline or Robinson
chance to once in a while to air their
views on the names of our public in
stitutions all of which is fun for the
crowd and wont bother CoWnie, for
there's something doin.'
And the principals in the effort to
secure a pardon from the self-ac-
lsnowledged murderer, Busse, should
hear the comment of the people on
their action. One man was indignant
that the T.-R. published that letetr
from Waverly even suggesting a par
don. The writer spends much time

In Butler county. and If there is any
desire on the part of any considerable
number Of citizens of that county to
pardon TVS murderer, he has yet to
hear of 1T. On the other hand, so dis
guested, so angry were the people Of
Butler county over the laws delay IN
this case, that more than score OF
Butler county citizens have said In
substance to the writer, If we ever
have another Busse murder case in
this county 1t wont cost the county
much for the trial. And so when Gov.
Cumrnins fixed the date for the legal
execution OF Busse and Smith, the
people OF Butler county We're more
than pleased that we had a man In the
governors chair willing to execute the
laws of the state, and carry out the
ends of justice. 1t can be imagined
the suggestion of pardon for this
murderer was not we'll received by
the better class of the citizens of
Butler county and elsewhere.
More than usual interest is taken In
the law suit against the garage COM
pany of Grinnell Not to attempt any
opinion on this case, for 1t Is stu
pending. and we can safely trust the
verdict of the courts. this much can be
said. A tremendous antagonism to-
wards these automobile machines ex-
lists among the farmers and others who
drive on the public roads. And like
the experience we all had when the
bicycle craze struck us, all of the
trouble comes from the few. While
writing this article two red devils"
have passed in front Of the hotel. The
first chaffuer slowed up three times IN
one block while meeting or passing
teams. The other used due diligence"
by going thru town at the rate Of ten
to fifteen miles an hour. giving half Of

emily was no business of his. Women
have no business to be driving team

to be run over. But just the same IL

RUIN GIRLS
Nome Indians Victims of
 PerniciOus Practice

The practice of running Indian girls at Nome, through the use of whiskey, has become so common that the people of the northern mining camp are up in arms because of it, and efforts are be- ing made to secure the passage of 6 law by congress making 1t a felony to fur nish liquor to Indians.
 The Nome Nugget charges that many Indian girls of 13 to l5 years of age have been ruined and that the crime is com mitted almost daily. Their parents readily consent, it is said, to the prae- tice in consideration of small quantity of liquor. In many cases the young girls themselves are given liquor un- til they become intoxicated.
