BACK FROM VACATION.

Nineteen pounds is the net gain of
the editors family after a two week z
stay at the Gulick-Voss cottage at
Okoboji. Seven pounds of this the
editor appropriated personally, and
goodness knows he could stand it.
Perhaps some OF it is to be accounted
for in the heavy coat of tan with
which he is adorned.
Nineteen pounds gained-that was
after all the very least of it,. 1t
makes no account of the gain in spirit
and vitality, in happiness and hope and
pleasant memories. We have to thank
these good Denison people for the best
vacation we have ever enjoyed. 1t
has been a great pleasure to US to
find that the Review suffered none in
our absence but that ii proved to be
left in splendid hands. We have
come back eager for work, but re-
solved to make more of the things
about US. to live a little closer to ma
ture and to try to hang on to those
seven pounds.

THE DEMOCRATIC SITUATION.


Upon analysis and after talks with
a number of prominent democrats out
side of Crawford county we have come
to the conclusion that the hope of
democratic success in Iowa has already
gone glimmering and in fact was
never more than bluff inspired by
republican factionalism. Iowa democ-
racy is in an odd position.
The candidate Claude Porter is a
fine young man with prohibition re-
cord excelled by none. 1t was throug h
his efforts that the saloons We're driven
cut Of Appanoose county and how he
could accept nomination on platform
which, while having no effect on a
county like Crawford, would practically
nullify the law in the temperance
counties is almost beyond compre-
hension.
The nomination was made from the
Eighth District. the home of the
stand patter" in the hope of draw
ing large vote from Gov. Cummins,
but the platform holds out no induce
ment to this element of the party.
Absolute free trade is the democratic
slogan, and it would seem that democ-
racy has learned nothing in the cen.
tury of it's existence. There can be
no inducement for the standpatter to
vote the democratic ticket save per-
sonal enmity to the republican nominee.

TARIFF BUNGLERs.

I'VE believe in Tariff for revenue
only, and that there should be imme-
date relief grantedto the people, who
are now being robbed by extortionate
prices. exacted under the shelter of
the Tariff. We believe the Tariff
should be removed from all trust-made
goods and in the removal of all duties
on iron, steel lumber. and coal. -
This is the Tariff resolution adopted
by the Iowa Democrats at their State
convention of Aug. Z. 1t embodies
the absurd blunder of first demanding
a Tariff for revenue only and
then calling for a removal of Tariff
duties from all trust-made goods,
more particularly iron, steel, lumber
and coal.
: The gifted bunglers who achieved
this proposition do not seem to know
that Tariff for revenue only would
accomplish the whole thing. for it
must be laid almost exclusively upon
non-competitive products, leaving COM
petitive products free of duty and non
productive of revenue. We do not
suppose that is what the Iowa Dem
ocrats meant to say, but that is what
they said.
Neither do we suppose them to have
thought out the conclusion that to re-
move the Tariff from call trust-made
goods, - leaving not even Tariff
for revenue only on such goods, would
mean Free-Trade in practically every
line of domestic production. Trusts
produce considerably less than half
of the manufactures in the United
States. probably not one-quarter.
But the non-trust producers would be
hit just as hard as the trusts. For
example, fully nine-tenths of the
woolens woven in the United States
are produced in non-trust mills and
factories. If the Tariff is to be re-
moved because of the one tenth con-
trolled by trust, of course, no Protec-
tlon can remain for the non-trust nine
tenths. Exactly the same would be
true In almost all lines of manufact-
ure. We should wreck all the non
trust industries while attempting to
wreck the trusts. If any survived it
would be the trusts, not the indepen-
dents.
On the whole, the Iowa Democrats
would have done better to have stop
ped short after the first seven words
of their Tariff plank: eve believe
in Tariff for revenue only" Moth
ing more is needed, if, as their plat
form seems to Indicate. the ultimate
intention is to smash all industries and
reduce American wages and American
standard of living down to the Eur
opean level. American Economist.

WEATHER-CRoP BULLETIN.

The past week was characterized
by extremely high temperatures by
day and warm nights, and the Cypress
i've conditions were intensified by a
high percentage of humidity. The
rainfall was unusually variable in
amount, resulting from local showers.
The largest amount reported was 8. 65
inches at Des Moines. most of which
fell on the morning of the 10Th. On
the evening of the 10Th heavy down.
pour was reported at DEBORAH, causing
damaging floods. Generally. the rain
fall was light. though in the larger
part OF the state the moisture in the
soil is sufficient for the present needs
OF growing crops. For the corn crop
it was the most favorable week of the
season, and that great staple has
made satisfactory progress toward
maturity. For the state at large the
crop is as we'll advanced as usual at
the close of the second decade in
August. The stand is above the
average. and the stalks are heavily

OPEN THE WATERWAYS.

Collier's Weekly has opened an agi-
tation which premises to become Ma
tional. In we'll written article it
points out the serious and almost
criminal neglect of American water
ways. Our German farmers will we'll
remember the net work of canals with
which the Fatherland is filled and
the manner in which every drop of
running water is utilized. America
has some of the greatest rivers of the
world, and makes the least use of
them. There is enough water in the
Missouri river at Omaha to provide an
all water route to the markets of the
world. There is no good reason why
the farmer of Crawford should not be
able to send his grain TO Omaha and
then have it shipped direct to Liver
pool by water except the neglect of
the American people to take advan-
tage of the God-given means at their
command.
Money spent for internal improve
ment is not lost. 1t goes very large
ly back among the people from whence
1t came. 1t will cost money. but it
is entirely possible to make every city
on the Mississippi a seaport as far
north as St. Paul, on the Ohio as far
east as Pittsburg and on the Missouri
as far west as Omaha or Sioux City.
Nothing better could be done to lower
freight rates throughout the country.
With electric lines between inland
towns and full development of our
water ways, railroad monopoly would
be at an end and the great Mississippi
valley would be the most prosperous
in the world. We hope that this ques-
ton will never become partisan one
and that the next congress will com
mence the good work by appointing a
commission to investigate fully the
plans for making these three great
rivers the high ways of the commerce
of the central west.

AMERICAN MARKsMANsHJP


In the course of his great address
at Clear Lake recently, Secretary
Shaw TOLD of the remarkable exhibition
of target practice shown by the gun
ners of the United States navy. A
target but just seen floating on the
water is often struck nine out of ten
times by shots from guns of the
largest capacity on ship board. When
one thinks of the unsteady rising and
falling of the target and the swell of
the ocean carrying the ship up and
down, it is indeed extraordinary that
the shots can be SO accurately placed.
1t will be remembered that in the late
war with SPAN, our gunners played
havoc with the escaping ships at
Santiago, and with the land batteries
and ships in Manila harbor. Some
may think that such skill has come
in late years. since the navy has been
under the scientific discipline of
Dewey, Schley, Evans, Philips and
other naval heroes now in the lime
light. But history shows that
American gunners have always dis
played fine craftsmanship.
Our attention was called this week
to one of the great naval battles of
the civil war; the sinking of the Con-
federate cruiser. Alabama by the
sloop-of-war Kearsage, off the coast
of France. That was Union victory
which gave nearly as much joy to the
North as that of many of the most
notable on land. In that memorable
conflict the gunners of the Kearsage
shot lib shots. 100 of which took effect.
The boys of the Union ship were undo +
high tension but their fine gunnery is,
even to this day, worthy of mention.
1t will compare with some of the best
target practice OF our modern navy
when every condition is at it's best.
1t thus appears that not alone now,
but in the days of lS6O-65 the Ameri-
can gunner stands in the front rank.
United States is proud of her navy.
Beginning with the deeds of John
Paul Jones in the war of the Revo-
luton, in the war of 1912, the Civil
War and in the conflict with Spain,
the record of the American gunner
has stood without peer. And judged
by young Swanson and the statements
of Secretary Shaw, there need be no
fear that in future wars the same
high standard will not be maintained.

THE PRESIDENTS ADyICE.

A letter written by President Roose-
welt to Congressman James E. Watson
OF Rushville, Ind, reviewing and
approving of the work of the present
congress, and declaring: ''To change
the leadership and organization of the
house at this time means to bring
confusion upon those who have sue
cessfully engaged in the steady work.
Ing out of great and comprehensive
scheme for the betterment eff our
social and civic conditions. was made
public today through the republican
congressional campaign committee.
The president also declared that such
change would result in hurtful
oscillation between the extreme radical
and extreme reactionary. The pres
ident also said that he hopes the pres
ent congress will enact the laws pro-
hibiting political contributions by cor
porations. lowering the duties on inn
ports from the Philippines and limit
ing the number of hours for railway
employees.
Of the tariff Mr.. Roosevelt says:
1--WE stand unequivocally for
protective tariff, and we feel that
the phenomenal industrial prosperity
which we are now enjoying is not
lightly to be jeopardized. for it would
be to the last degree foolish to secure
here and there small benefit at the
cost OF general depression. But when
ever a given rate or schedule becomes
evidently disadvantageous to the
nation, because of the changes which
go on from year to year in our con-
ditions. and where it is feasible to
change this rate or schedule without
too much dislocation of the system,
1T will be done: while a general re-
vision of the rates and schedules will
be undertaken whenever it shall appear
to the sober business sense of our
people that on the whole the benefits
to be derived from making such
changes will outweigh the disadvan-

add one word of caution. however.
The question of revising the tariff
stands wholly apart from the question
OF dealing with the so-called trusts
that is. with the control of mon
opoies and with the supervision of
great wealth in business. especially
in corporate form. The only way in
which it is possible to deal with those
trusts and monopolies and this great
corporate wealth, is by action along
the lines of the laws enacted by the
present congress and its immediate

No Partisan Issues.

Mr.. Roosevelt says that if only
partisan issues We're involved in this
contest, he should hesitate to say any,
thing publicly in reference to it, but
he does not feel that this is the case.
The pl esident declares that with Mr..
Cannon as speaker, the house has ac-
complished literally phenomenal
amount of good work. 1t has shown
courage. good sense and patriotism
such that it would be a real and SER
ious misfortune for the country to fail
to recognize
Mr.. Roosevelt then enters upon a
review of the work of the conrgess
and important measures passed by it,
measures which he says are more than
important In partisan sense because
they subserve the welfare of the whole
people.
lie gives credit to congress in the
matter OF the Panama canal, saving ::
"The interest banded together to
oppose the canal are numerous and
bitter and most uf them with a pecu-
llarly sinister basis for their OPPOSE
ton. Had congress been either timid
or corrupt and had not the leaders of
congress shown the most farsighted
resolution in the matter, the work of
building the canal would never have
been begun or if begun, would now
have halted.''
Strong approval is expressed of the
attitude of congress toward the up
building of the navy and the president
takes up the measures dealing with
government regulation of business.
Trusts the Great Problem.
"The tremendous social and indus
trial changes in our nation, - he saws,
have rendered evident the need of a
larger exercise by the national govern
ment OF its power to deal with the
business use of wealth and especially
OF corporate wealth, in interstate
business. 1t is not too much to saw
that the course of congress within the
last few years and the hearty agree
ment between the legislative and ex-
ecutive departments of the nation in
taking the needed action each within
its sphere. have resulted in the nation
for the first time definitely entering
upon the career of proper performance
OF duty in these matters.
ut is very easy thing to play the
demagogue in this matter, to confine
ones self merely to denouncing the
evils of wealth, and to advocate. often
in vague language, measures so sweep
ing that while they would entirely fail
TO correct the evils aimed at, they un-
doubtedly succeed in bringing down
the prosperity of the nation with
crash. But it is not easy to do so as
the present congress and the immedi-
ate predecessors have done; that is.
sternly to disregard alike the self
interest of those who have profited bv
