A SONG FOR THE WEARY.

Life is but world of battles;
You must fight them would you win
With the idleness that prattles.
Victory has never been:
Then why should you he complaining
If in one attempt you fail?
Each en- deavor gives you training,
Till at last you should prevail.
Nuggets of success are lying
Underneath life's rugged road
Dig and dig and keep on trying
Till you strike the precious lode.
Skies above you will be bluer
AS long the way you tread.
Friends around you will be truer
So be brave and go ahead
Time is fleeting. so be doing
Any task there is for you;
You are stronger. while accruing
Gain of good and wisdom, too,
Be not with the drones and shirkers.
AS through life they idly stroll;
Victory belongs to workers.
Strive and you will reach the goal
The Glenwood post., 1905-10-07

The object Of life is to learn to
live. We are at school here, and
shall always be at school until we are
dismissed from earth's classes to be
promoted into Heaven. 1t is pity
we do not learn our lessons. 1t is a
pity if we grow no gentler, no kindli
er. no more thoughtful, no more un-
selfish. no more unworldly, as the
years pass over US.
The Glenwood post., 1905-10-07

when we come to the end of life
it is not the wisdom we have ac-
quired. or the wealth we have gained,
or the fame we have won, that we
like to remember but the love we
have given and received.

NATIONAL LEGISLATION REGARD.
ING RAILROADS.

The Courier has published for
the benefit of it's readers, the full text
Of the Cooper-Q uarles bill, now pend
ing before congress. AS stated in
this paper, this bill has it's supporters
and its enemies, even among the
friends Of the Presidents plan to give
to the interstate commerce commits
sion greater powers than are now pos
sessed by that body. The principle at
stake, as brought out in the Presi-
dents message, is clear and the pub
lie will and should insist that it be
enacted into the law IN some way.
This principle is:
"Shall the railroads be required to
submit to a decision on rates of a
governmental tribunal, pending an ap-
peal to the courts, rather than that
shippers shall be required to submit to
decision of the railroads on freight
rates, from which there is no appeal?"
The exact manner in which this
principle shall be enacted into law
must necessarily be left largely to the
members of congress. Generally speak

STEPPING STONES.

The Des Moines Capital asks for the
nomination of man for governor who
will appreciate the honor and will not
feel that he is making a sacrifice by
serving. "It has come to pass that
men take the governorship of Iowa as
an incidental affair in their onward
march to something else,' says the
Capital
1t should be matter of pride to
Iowans that the governorship of their
state leads to higher things. The kind
of man who uses that office as step
ping stone to further greatness Is the
kind of man Iowa wants for her gov
ernor. 1t is pretty safe rule that in
this world of ours the man who is en-
tirely satisfied with his lot is the
porest kind of man to trust with any
thing, even friendship. The success
full business man Is pleased, but Is al
ways planning for years business
that will surpass the last. The ath-
lete who holds a worlds record, is
pleased but he is always trying to
make his mark harder to equal. The
man who is governor of Iowa should
look for better things. If he is salts
fed with the governorship he will not
make as good governor as the man
whose ambition points him to higher
honors. The very fact that man has
ambition is one of the characteristics
that recommend him to his fellow men
for distinction.

THE EXPRESS COMPANY CASES.

The two cases In winch the supreme
court of the United States this week
decided in favor of the American and
Adams Express companies respectively
against the state of Iowa were based
on the custom of shipping liquors to a
prohibition town consigned to flc'
titious name in care of the express
agent. The men for whom the goods
are Intended is Informed by the ship

ing to be taken out of the care of the

THE PUBLIC INTERESTED.

The Davenport Times, in double
loaded editorial, presents the. name
of Hon. Joe R. Lane. OF that city, for
governor of Iowa. The Times says 1t
does not know whether Mr.. Lane
will consent to become a candidate
or not and that the announcement OF
his name is made without his knowl-
edge. This leaves the matter entirely
speculative, and the public will wait
with great interest any indication from
Mr.. Lane as to whether or not he will
permit his name to be seriously con,
sidered In this direction. The reason
for doubt along this line is that Mr.
Lane served the second district for
one term in congress, and then de-
cined denomination for business rea
sons. desiring to devote his entire time
and attention to his profession. But
Mr.. Lane is one of the strong and
brainy men of Iowa. He is pre-emi.
nently a leader among men and he has
qualifications for the position, which
would render him, at this time, IN
many respects the most desirable can
didate for governor that could be
named by the republicans of Iowa. we
believe the nomination of Mr.. Lane
would do more to settle and eliminate
the nonsensical and inexcusable fac
tional differences that some people
seem to think are now prevailing IN
the republican ranks Of Iowa than any
thing we know Of. Iowa republicans
will await with great interest some ex-
pressions from Mr.. Lane as to whether
or not he will permit the use of his
name in connection with the govern

SHAW AND FAIRBANKS.

The stories that are being given CIT
culation in some quarters, regarding al
legged schemes on the part of Senator
Fairbanks to undermine the Shaw
presidential boom and thus increase
his own strength for 1908, are mani
testify ridiculous fabrications of some
overworked correspondents imagina-
ton. In the first place both Fair
banks and Shaw are too we'll versed IN
politics and the science Of party power
to try any such a plan at this stage OF
the game In addition to that, they are
men whose regard for the welfare OF
the nation and the important posi-
tions they fill would prevent them
from lessening their influence for good
by entering into fight at this time.
There can be little doubt, as matters
now stand, that there will be no little
display of politics within the repub-
lican party before the 1908 nomination
is made. But 1t will not be of the I'M
derhand kind the dispatches now being
published would indicate. Iowa will
not be against Shaw. No amount OF
work within the ranks of the party
will throw a vote from his own state
against him. Just the same way Fair
banks will have Indiana. An effort
will be made by the friends of both. in
an honorable and open fashion, to Sc
cure other delegations and the nomi.
nation. but If these two men do come
before the 1908 convention as rival
candidates for the presidential nominal
ton they will come as friends and
there will not be one act of discour-
tesy or underhand work of which either
can accuse the other.

If Tom had any sense at all

At night! At night!

And seek for something they can take

A BATCH OF POEMS.

IOQay we OITer q Datcn or poems,
one of the collections that gather on
a desk where both the good and bad
in literature seem to always find a
resting place. The first is one that
may commend itself to a great num-
Der of readers. Few Of our readers
are from Kentucky and only a small
per cent of those who are will come
out openly and admit It, so we will not
lay claim to stirring up feeling Of
home But the Kentucky poem is good
enough to pass around just on general
principles. Here it is.
The moonlight is the softest
In Kentucky;
Summers days come oftenest
In Kentucky;
Friendship is the strongest,
Loves fires glow the longest,
Yet, a wrong is always wrongest
In Kentucky.
The sunshine's ever brightest
In Kentucky;
The breezes whisper lightest
In Kentucky;
Plain girls are the fewest,
Maiden's eyes are the bluest.
Their little hearts are truest
In Kentucky.
Life's burdens bear the lightest
In Kentucky;
The home fires burn the brightest
In Kentucky;
While the players are the keenest,
Cards come out the meanest
The pocket empties cleanest
In Kentucky
Orators are the grandest
In Kentucky;
Officials are the blandest
In Kentucky;
Boys are all the fliest,
Danger ever highest,
Taxes are the highest
In Kentucky.
The bluegrass waves the bluest
In Kentucky;
The bluebloods are the truest (?)
In Kentucky;
Moonshine is the clearest-
BY no means of the dearest
And yet it acts the queerest
In Kentucky.
In Kentucky;
The streams glance on the gladdest
In Kentucky;
Hip pockets are the thickest,
Pistol hands the slickest,
Cylinders turn quickest,
In Kentucky.
Song birds are the sweetest
In Kentucky;
Thoroughbreds are the fleetest
In Kentucky;
The mountains tour proudest
Thunder peals the loudest,
The landscape is the grandest-
And politics-the damnedest
In Kentucky.
That poem is taken from publica.
ton called the Business Woman's Mag
azine and is signed Judge Mulligan.''
The judge did pretty well to keep his
swear words corked up until the last
moment 1t shows self control In.
deed 1T shows more of that quality than
does the ditty that Wilton Lackaye
contributes. Mr. Lackaye mas gained
an enyiable reputation on the stage
and he will do very well to stay there.
His venture into the fields of litera
ture, while no doubt inspired, was not
the direct result of any message from
the source from which true poets say
they draw their power to charm their
readers. Read Mr.. Lackaye's poem
and see what you think:
