Platform For City Campaign Is
Adopted at Tuesday Night
Meeting
PARTY DOMINATES
TIL RD
Adjournment For One Week Was
Taken, When 1t Is the Intention to
Nominate Complete City Ticket
Twenty one in Attendance at the
Meetins-The Platform.

The "home protection movement,
which figured in city politics to a con-
siderable extent in the municipal cleo
ton two years ago, has again been
launched, a meeting of few OF the
loyal ones having been held Tuesday
night at the Central Iowa Business
College rooms. Twenty one were in at
tendance and the third party prohibi-
ton element dominated. +. H. Hough-
ton was made chairman of the meeting
and j. S. Bart ey acted as secretary.
Aside from talking over the situation
in a general way, no business OF i'm
portance was transacted aside from the
adoption of the platform which is sim
liar in construct ion to that OF two
years ago. Adjournment for week
was taken and at that time 1t is eX-
pected that complete city ticket will
be placed in nomination..
1t had been hoped by some who are
in sympathy with the home protec-
ton" movement proper that the third
party element might be kept in the
background in the campaign but such
does not appear to be the case. or at
least such was not indicated at the
meeting Tuesday night. A few of the
more prominent workers in the social
list party were also present, and par
tlcipated in the, meeting. The platform,
as adopted, YVES as follows:
Realizing that every individual
voter is sovereign in his citizenship
and that majority of citizens agree
ing upon principle, may incorporate
it into the established policy of our
city government, therefore, we appeal
to the citizens Of Marshalltown, for
their support of the following candi-
dates, who pledge themselves to carry
out in their municipal rule the follow
ing declarations.
First, we affirm that with nine
years of saloon rule in this city taxes
are higher, crime more rampant, the
police force much larger and disorder
is on the increase.
Second that every dollar paid to the
saloons is just SO much diverted from
respectable and beneficial business
houses of the city, now amounting to
nearly s350,Ooo, annually.
Third, that the legalized saloon poll
cy is wrong IN prlnclple, Dau III morals,
expensive to care for, demoralizing and
degrading to every interest Of the city
and citizens thereof, and as a revenue
producer a failure.
Therefore the city government
policy shall be:
ITO oppose the licensing Of saloons
or allowing the liquor traffic 70" bever-
age purposes within the city o taxing
of vice for the support Of the city
government.
ITO favor submitting to the vote Of
the people all questions on municipal
ownership, and will protect the city
against exclusive franchise and corpo-
rate greed.
"To favor IL strong endeavor and a
liberal policy in interesting new manu-
featuring plants to locate here, but con-
tracts must hold the corporations as
we'll as the city.
"To favor Furnishing the violators Of
law and to oppose the policy of REMIT
ing the fines.
"ro favor the adjustment Of the fee
system" !,

DR.. sTElNER's SECOND LECTURE.
Old Prophets and New Problems Made
Entertaining at Y. M. C. A.

Old Prophets and New Problems Made
Entertaining at Y. M. C. A.
The second lecture by DR.. Steiner in
the Searchlissht Club series at the Y.
NJ. c. A. building was given Tuesday
evening. His as minutes talk was de-
voted to a description OF the social
and political condition of the early
Jewish people and the work the old
prophets performed in leading them to
q righteous way of living. DR.. Stein
showed in his lecture, why he can
the New Problems for, as it is con-
stantly necessary to describe the So
cial, political and economic conditions
of the Jews from Abraham to Saul and
David in order to make himself under
stood to men of this age ana In order
to make his lecture a live one, DR..
Steiner contrasts and compares the po-
iitical and economic problems Of the
Jews with the live conditions with
which men are battling today
DR.. Steiner spoke Of the isolated and
rugged nature of the Palestine
country, how the isolation developed
individuality in the Jew, how the rug
ged hills ard the precarious seasons
made him IL keen and alert sort Of a
man. He deferred to the nigh posi-
ton and influence Of women inthe early
social structure of the Jews, which so
strengthened the family ties as to
break dowa the tribal organizations.
DIR. Steiner then depressed to explain
how the tribal system or socialism,
which some people of today are striv-
