NO ELECTION A GREAT RELIEF.

For the first time in sixty years the
first Tuesday after the first Monday
In November in Iowa will pass with
out state election being held. The
biennial election amendment is re-
sponsible. How do we like it?
Those Of us who are busy men and
not professional politicians must con-
fess that change seems pleasing. Had
the old custom prevailed we would
have been drawn into politics early
last spring at the time ef the county
conventions and all summer long a
spirited campaign would have been In
progress. Today thousands Of us
would have been taken, from our busi-
ness to electioneer and get out the
vote" Hundreds of thousands of
dollars of our money would have been
spent for election expenses, while, as
1t Is, we go about our business unin-
.terupted. We can sit back in our chairs
tomorrow morning and leisurely read
how the election. came out in New
York, Ohio. Philadelphia on any of
those foreign countries. "A great load
had been lifted from our shoulders be-
cause we have an honest and efficient
administration at Des Moines. But
suppose corrupt and Immoral officials
were in powers Well that would be
different. Next year would seem q
long way off.

rHwlNe ON THE PENSION FOUNDATION.

About the middle of the current
month the trustees who are to admins
ter the pension fund for teachers in
American colleges, recently founded by
Mr.. Carnegie, are to hold their first
meeting. With this fact in view, DR..
Charles r. Thwing, president of the
Western Reserve University, has writ
ten an article, which appears in the
November North American Review,
in which he examines the presidents
accessible to the trustees when they
come to determine the principles on
which they will base their awards.
These precedents include the German
system for the sustentation of the Of
flcers Of the higher schools and their
families, which was initiated about tho
end of the seventeenth century; the
funds established by churches in var
ious countries; city pension funds for
policemen firemen or other employees;
and pension funds in a number of coll
leges, such as Harvard, Columbia, Yale
Cornell and Toronto In these Dr.
Thwing does not think the Carnegie
trustees will find aid of serious value
but he is assured that they will de-

Mr.. HEARsT's APT PUPILS.

Except In the minor matters of eating
eggs from the shell and giving monkey
dinners and the more important prac-
tice of modernized piracy, we do things
better west than east. When we hold
an election in Iowa there is enough do
ing to win notice at Donnybrook. Our
campaigns are continuous battle, for
the Iowan is a born fighter. Some
times in the factional strife of parties
things are done under the domination
of special interests and the direction
of the interested individuals who rep
resent these interests that are outside
the rules Of honorable political war
fare, but campaign like the one clos
ed today in New York City would be
an impossibility even in Iowa's largest
city, which has made it's elections a
state wide reproach.
If there exists any mixture OF filth
that was not used as missile, any
appeal to prejudice or the baser ele-
Of in New York 1t is not of the record.
The great posters representing Hearst
as the assassin Of Mckinley and as a
depraved and vicious debauchee, are
only incidents In a campaign OF un-
precedented uncleanliness.
But while all this digusts and sick
ems it Is not likely to create much
sympathy for Hearst. He now knows
chow it is himself" The hoardings
that blazoned him before the public did
little more than turn Hearst's own
guns against him. The scandalous
pages of his own journals with their
shameless cartoons and coarse loose
ness of statement and expression have
been teaching the profession of polt-
lcal SANDER. When Mr.. Hearst, his
wife and his friends, rode by the out
rageous bill boards and saw the libel
Gus post card pictures thick as leaves
along the streets, they saw one of the
successes Of the yellow school Of jour-
nalism.
Base personal assaults for political
purposes usually make friends for those
attacked. 1t his not been so in Mr..
Hearsts case. With nothing but dis
gust and condemnation for the scan
dalous methods employed, the public
feels that Mr.. Hearst earned all he has
been getting.

wise satisfactory methods of discharg-

wise satisfactory methods of discharg-
ing their trust. DR.. Thwing concludes.
This great and unique foundation
bears special message to two classes.
First, 1t bears Il message to the trus-
tees Of American colleges. 1t is the
message that this heneficence shall
not be suffered TO interfere with the
still further progress of the increase
In the salaries of college teachers.
These salaries are increasing, but the
increase is slow and the resulting
amount is not adequate. College trus-
tees should not and will not. unload
their own duties of making proper
compensation to the members of their
faculties upon the trustees of the
Carnegie Foundation. This great gift
also bears message OF invitation to
young men who are making the great
choice Of life's calling. To enter
the noble vocation of the teacher in
an American college. young men of
yirile and vigorous stuff do not like to
think of themselves as pensioners.
This foundation does not oblige them
to thus think. 1t cannot fail to render
more attractive to the ablest men ana
best calling which has, in recent
years, been in peril of failing to sum-
mon the worthiest."

AN tmPoTENT DECISION.

Live stock shippers in Iowa will note
that the interstate commerce commits
sion has again declared the 50 terminal
charge at Chicago unreasonable This
process OF extortion has been practiced
for years and the commission has re-
iterated its ruling time and again for
the last ten years. The commission
keeps on deciding the charge an illegal
one and the railway managers keep on
making it. 1t has been before courts
and commissions for the best part OF a
decade and without definite settlement
except in impotent decisions by the
Interstate commerce commission. Nome
may confidently predict that it will not
outlive the present parties to the con-
t,,oversy and another generation OF
disputants. But all this time the rail-
roads are getting the shippers money
by a tax declared Illegal by a COM
mission appointed for the special pmr-
nose of preventing extortion and dis
elimination.
Without entering into the arguments
for or against the legality of the ter
minal charge the point is that m1ler
present conditions the railroads, keep
ON getting the money and the shipper
keeps on paying while definite settle
ment is deferred for a decade. Persons
with taste for figures may multiply
the number Of cars that have paid ter
minal charges since the charge was
imposed by two and get total Of the
enormous sums involved. He will
then be prepared to read Professor
Hugo Meyers book and take a stand
for or against increased powers for the
Interstate commission.
Suppose five years ago a commission
with power to declare a reasonable
rate subject to revision or reversal by
a competent court had abolished the
terminal charge. Does amy one inn
agine that in 1908 the contention
would have been awaiting definite ac-
ton by the courts?

When the Hearse Comes.

[John Dalton in Manson Democrat
When your eyes grow dim, and your
form Is bent
In your blood-paced race for gold,
Therell be little to see and little to
love,
When you're weary and worn and
old.
When your dim sight fails on your
boarded wealth,
And your thin hands clutch your
store,
Therell be nothing In it for you, my
friend,
When the hearse backs up to your
door.
When the lights go out, and the music
stops,
And the stars fade from the sky
Then the dawn will come and you'll
cease to chase
The gay, gilded butterfly.
Your head will droop with remorse and
shame
And your heart will be sick and
sore;
But your faithful wife will weep alone

ABOUT SHAW.
Misunderstanding Eclinse


Can Shaw capture the west on his
platform of standpattism on the
tariff. opposition to President
Roosevelt's plan of freight rate
regulation and as a tacit tool of the
corporations of the country? That
Shaw will try 1t there is mo doubt.
He recently spoke in Lincoln, Nebras-
ka, and the Journal of that city says
Shaw made a good impression upon
the people, but that he could mot car
ry Nebraska ON the sentiments he ex-
pressed in his speech. Shaw seems to
be of the opinion that the demand Of
THE country for tariff revision and the
regulation of freight rates lis tenn
porary frenzy which will soon pass
away and by his actions he believes
that by advocating the let we'll enough
alone policy the people will soon come
to believe that needed changes in the
tariff are not necessary and that rail-
road freight rates had better not be
tempered with. 1t remains to be seen
whether Shaw can carry out this pol
icy successfully. If he can his, chances
for securing the nomination for the
presidency are very slight. If he fails
he will never he president of the
United States, and Of course the
