Consul General Guenther Of Prank

many is subject to certain restrictions
on account of it's intlammability. The
owner of an automobile recently
shipped his machine by rail from Mu-
nich,. where he had taken part in the
"Herkommer" races, to his home in
Augsburg, but concealed the fact that
the reservoir contained about 200
pounds of benzine. For thus violating
the railroad police regulations he was
fined 10000 marks (s2,3SO)

A Revlva,-Arytime.

DIR. Torrey's message to America
was: "a revival can be had in any
church that will pay the price. If
few devoted Christians will get them
selves entirely at Gods disposal for
Him to use them as He will, and then
will begin to pray unitedly for re-
vlval in their church, and be willing to
pray on and on until they have pray
ed it through, and then will get out
and do personal work among their
friends and others, a revival Will soon
break out This is a prescription that
never fails. or course the ministers
are of first Importance In a revival,
but even if minister opposes he can
be changed by prayer or a revival can
be held without him."

PENSIONS AND PRESIDENTS.

Increase in the presidents salary to
100000 year and an annual pension
of $4,000 for retiring presidents is
again the subject of some agitation in
reputable quarters. 1t is argued that
to see our x-presidents laboring in
trade or in the professions is not a
fitting sight and that great and
wealthy country like our own may
well afford to approach the salaries
paid by other leading nations to their
rulers and chief magistrates.
No American will object to the pres
fdent receiving a salary sufficient to
the needs OF his office. However. a
great many Americans will see moth
ing un-American in the spectacle of an

PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENTS.

The incident of the insurance meet
ing in Chicago serves we'll to illustrate
what would be the effect on our pub
lie affairs had we more Of such men
rs Governor Cummins in public life.
This convention was called by men
due in insurance matters but who
feared that legislatures would go to
extremes owing to the scandalous ma
ture of the New York disclosures. IN
surance men are persuasive takers
and, after full day Of "blarney" about
the beauties of deferred dividends and
all other contrivances designed to get
more out of policyholders than the
cost of his insurance and to keep it in
hcers to use in private speculation,
the convention was about won over.
Then Governor Cummins is reported
by the newspapers to have chosen the
psychological moment to get up and
declare that he intended to do all he
could in his own state to establish uni
form policies, to force an annual ac-
counting and distribution of surplus
and to see that the reserve moneys are
deposited with the state for. security
of policy holders and to be out of the
hands of insurance officers who might
be tempted to use them in specula-
tion.
Some other man might have said
the same thing but the facts are that
no one seemed to have the nerve to
face the majority sentiment of that
convention, hence the sophistries Of
the insurance men were about to carry
the convention. Cummins is said to
have chosen a psychological moment.
All he did was to rise up puncture
those sophistries of designing men and
state with clearness and force the case
of the people versus the special inter-
estS.
He is said to have risen also at the
psychological moment in the proceed
ings Of the Chicago reciprocity confer
ence, when the convention was about
to be sung to sleep by sweet songs of
delusion. Whenever Cummins pre-
sents the truth with the sincere force
of an honest, fearless man, conven-
lions, somehow. have a penchant for
coming over to him and the reporters
declare that he chose the psychol-
ogical moment. Were there more
such men as Cummins in governors
chairs, in the United States senate and
in grooming to succeed Roose-
welt, the cause of the people versus
the special interests would find a
champion more often at the psyche
logical moment. Three of four such
men in the United States senate to-
day would make it possible for some
of Roosevelt's reforms to be enacted
into law.

"The people Of Iowa may suffer from
corrupt practices in New York and

subject to pain at the misdoings of
others, the primary, If it will do what
is claimed for it, ought to be almost
sufficient, but Iowa's investments else
where give the people of the state an
interest in the practices that prevail
beyond the borders of the state. For
example, the New York insurance COM
panies can't contribute hundreds of
thousands of dollars to political
campaigns without hurting Iowans.
Iowans should take an interest in leg
islation at Washington and Albany

In the Judgment Of the Cedar Rapids

conclusively proven in the attempt

lieves are in the interest of the people
and has earned the opposition of the
corporations. Residents of Page county
declare that Lewis scalp is badly
wanted and that 1T will probably be
secured. And yet there are those who
profess to believe that no effort is be-
ing made by corporations to control
the elections"

county If our officers refuse to rec
ognze the rights of the people and
legislate for their personal welfare the
only proper place to fix them is at the
polls"
