WHATS THE MATTER WITH suRLlNGToHi

AS one report of violence and thug
gism follows another from Burlington,
it becomes evident that something is
the matter with that town. The latest
is an account of the way saloonists
lay in wait for an attorney who had
been filing suits for the civic fedora
ton against alleged violators of the
mulct law, and as he left the court
room assaulted and manhandled him.
After, mob of saloon sympathizers
and hangers-on pursued and hunted
him down the main street of the city.
This latest riot has been preceded by
others, and the attorneys of the anti
saloon league and civic federation
transact business in Burlington at
their peril.
An ordinary fight and common dis
turbance in Burlington is one thing.
Organized opposition by red light in
terests against state law, backed by
the bludgeons Of thugs and saloon
stove herders is anothed. The state at
large has an interest in these cases at

half 1t was spurned by the men whom
the Gate City and other railroad organs
would claim as Lacey's friends. AT
home they got ready for campaign.
The boilers insisted upon national re-
publican ticket i'm opposition to Cum
Minis and Maytag and the regular re-
| publican ticket. In the interests OF
party harmony the Maytag men again
offered to compromise by giving all OF
the nominees for county offices to the
| Lacey railroad crowd If they would
support Maytag and Cummins and the
regular republican state ticket This
| was also refused by those who are set
forth as Lacey's friencs.
The campaign progressed, with more
bad blood In evidence as the days went
! by. Lacey was then asked by the
Cummins men to come into Jasper
county and line up his standpat, anti
Cummins friends for the regular re-
publican ticket. AT this his so-called
friends in charge of the national repub-
licam ticket served notice on him that
if he did try it they would see THAT he
lost more votes than he gained, so
Lacey stayed out of Jasper county
When the votes were counted, the
democrats had carried the county by
more than 1000 plurality against Cum
Minis. No one accused the Maytag
Culnmins progressives of voting for
Porter.
The democrats also elected their en-
tire county ticket because the repub-
licans were divided. The democrats
had no nominee for state senator, be-
cause Maytag was too good a man to
oppose. Maytag was elected. Laceys
opponent carried the county. From the
election returns it does not appear as
to which faction cut Lacey. The ANTI
CImnins faction did threaten him,
they did vote the democratic ticket on
governor and, while Lacey staid out
of Jasper county, he did plead for the
whole ticket in Poweshiek and other
counties Of the district, against the
orders of his Jasper county friends. 1t
makes very little difference. If the
Cummins Maytag men cut him they
did it after repeated offers of compro-
mise had been made in vain to his so
called friends The McCord crowd We're
determined to wreck the whole ticket,
in the hopes of defeating Cummins and
Maytag. The ticket was wrecked with
Lacey included. but Cummins and
Maytag were elected. The situation in
Jasper was local. It defeated Lacey,
but few care now which faction did it.
If Governor Cummins or his friends
could have had their wishes respected
in Jasper county, Lacey would have
been saved along with the rest of the
ticket.

Burlington, and the decency of Bur-
lington has a duty to the state Which
It SENS unwilling or afraid to perform.
The civic federation of that city rose
out of what the newspapers We're quick
20 call a widespread religious reform
hat followed the la bors of a prominent
revivalist Men paid their debts, turned
from vicious modes of life to clean
handedness and honest living Out of
and part of this sweeping change the
civic federation was born. For a time
it held the support of the press OF
Burington-presuma while the in
Iluence of Rev. Sunday held in the ed
ltorial sanctums and before political
exigencies that called for the saloon
vote arose in state and municipal at
fairs-and there is little reason to
doubt that it still represents decency
and sincere desire for law enforce
ment. Every one who knows anything
about the saloons of the river cities
knows that they are impudently law
less and defiant. The Macedonian cry
comes from Dubuque that they dom
mate politics and control the munich
pality. Dubuque is in scarcely a worse
plight than other cities along the river
streets of Burlington? Why should not
an attorney for the civic federation be
protected and permitted to earn his fee
In Burlington? Are the saloons of the
worst type the court of last resort in
the city of the HawkEyee
Much has been said of blackmailers
who annoy and rob saloonists, but
more has been told than is true, and
the cry of "blackmail" has been a shell
ter for men who richly deserve pun
ishment Somewhat of blackmail there
has been, but the remedy for this is in
the hands of the saloonist. In no COM
munity can blackmailer find counte-
nance. Payment of one demand and
prosecution following it will free any
saloonist who is keeping the law from
blackmail. The fact is that usually the
blackmailed saloonist is openly and de-
family law violator. That is why he
gives up" to the CRATER.
Many honest men and newspapers
opposed the plan of a state constabu-
larry They still oppose it; but the
open defiance of law and assumption
of power on the part of the saloon in
terests wherever they and their sym
pathizers are locally in majority will,
tend very strongly to incline the pub
lie mind to stern measures. No more
mistaken hope was ever matched than
that of the liquor interests to become
dominant in Iowa. The saloon is an
outlaw and will so remain. When it
assumes to dictate or drive, 1t plays
with its own existence. The principle
in Iowa must be supremacy Of law.
