The Keokuk Gate City complains
because Des Moines "hogged about all
Of the available space" at the republic
can convention. The Gate City must
think that first place on the ticket was
all the space worth having.
1t was an evidence of fairness to
permit the state central committee TO
be organized so as to place the cam
paign in the hands friendly to the
ticket.
There is something of consistency
in Governor Folks scheme to tax all

1t is now explained that the kissing

Reference il made to the only dem

Urgency by retaining more of their
money in their own banks and less on

Something Of an explanation Of why
boys leave the farm may be found in
the causes which keep men from going
there.
An astonishing announcement is
made by the Washington Post, which
says that If Secretary Taft is elected
president, Theodore Roosevelt will be
his secretary of state. The Panama
canal, the Philippines and our other
island possessions will be transferred
to that department, and Mr.. Roosevelt
will crafty his ambition to dig the
canal, pacify and modernize the Phil

colonial system. If it is true there are
a lot of US who will vote for Taft.
Here is a horrible lesson that many

FARM HOMES FOR BOYS.

The story recently given circulation
to the effect that an organized effort
win be made by the industrial school
1 at EIdora to find homes on farms for
the boys that graduate from the school
has offered suggestion that can be

There is something to do for boy on
farm. The work keeps him out of
Z doors and usually is congenial. He
need never be idle. This is reforma-
tory to a high degree. Whenever he

peals to the ambition in every boy and
spurs him to apply his greatest efforts.
! To make things grow and be among
growing things cultivates humans
tartan interest which goes far to civ
ilize the widest kid.
There can be no question that the
I farm is the place for the boy. from
which follows the query, why wait I'M
! til he has served course at the FL
dora school? Why not send him to
the farm right away?
"A reform school for a boy in whom
one has a personal interest Is a hide
Il GUS thing at best. OF necessity the
criminal classes find their way there
Many young ruffian bred in the
vilest ssdepravity is sent there. Then
along comes boy really innocent In

i drunken parents and he must needs

lack OF any other home. It is an awful
thing to force this kind of lad into
the environment of depraved negro
/ boys and scions of the ruffian classes
Let any father imagine his own boy
left adrift in the world perhaps to the
unwilling care of a step parent. He
can see how his own dear son, with
spirit, might be goaded into doing
wrong under such circumstances and
be rushed off to the reform school by
an all too eager guardian. Let any
man imagine the depravity that is born
into some lads and think of his own
son homeless and compelled to face
such an environment! The prospect
lis enough to strike terror to the heart.
The farm home offers the needed
s escape but it must be kept under sur.
veilance. Without constant and pains
taking inspection such homes would
often prove mere masks for human
slavery. They must be real homes
and not tread-nills. They must Of
fer good care, wholesome food,
schooling and reasonable work. Then
the boy should be hurried there just as
soon as the home can be found. The
superintendent will know in weeks
time whether boy needs a reforma-
tory or home. When the states in
dustrial school shall have perfected a
clearing house function of this nature,
IT will have performed humanitarian
service far greater than any it has yet
undertaken

Judge and Journalist.

| An Indiana judge has fined a news
paper publisher $3.50 and sentenced
him to Imprisonment in Jail for three
months for contempt of court The
contempt" consisted of an editorial
criticism of the judges course in a
criminal proceeding. The case has
given rise TO a good deal of interest
| ing comment and criticism. 1t brings
out again a not unfamiliar argument
that judge in a proceeding for con-
| tempt of his own court-in effect. of
his own person-wields a tremendous
| pOwer@mpre than ought to be placed
| in -oRe-man:s hands: but the question
as to how the proper limitation should
be placed is not settled, and probably
never will be- Newspapers and judges
are both human, and both go wrong &C.
casiOnally. They err in judgment, or
allow their passions and prejudices to
govern them in public matters.
In 1904 a United States district
Judge issued an order affecting rail-
road in which the state of North Car
DINA was a stakeholder. II was Sc
verely criticised by a Raleigh news
paper as an order which would do
great injury 10 the state The editor
was arrested for contempt and SEN
fenced TO pay fine of $4,000. Citizens
promptly subscribed the money to pay
the fine. The defendant refused the
money, and had himself taken by ha-
beas corpus before Judge Pritchard of
the United States circuit court, who
ordered his discharge, saying:
THAT newspapers sometimes en-
gage in unwarrantable criticism of
courts cannot be denied. In some in
stances they construe the liberty of the
press as a license to authorize them
to engage in wholesale abuse of the
court, but these instances are rare and
do not warrant a departure from the
well settled principles of the law as
declared by congress and construed by
the courts. If judges charged with
the administration of the law are not
to be criticised on account of their
own conduct, the liberty of the press
is abridged and the rights of individ-
uals imperiled.''

To be sure. Stillwell was cheated
out of his road, but the road is there,
fulfillment of a dream.
Then Stillwell dreamed another

Cleveland Plain Dealer: At the ma
tional encampment of the Grand Army
of the Republic at Minneapolis this
year proposition TO set aside the last
Sunday in May as Memorial day will
be considered. IT is claimed by many
that the change is demanded in view
of the manner in which the real puT-
pose of Memorial day has been OBJ
scured. When the holiday falls upon
a week day it is almost exclusively
given over to sports and pleasure, and
scarcely a thought is given to the he
roes of the civil war, living or dead
To establish a Sunday for the annual
observance would tend to do away
with the present manner of celebra-
ton. The day would, it is claimed, be
given over more particularly to the
old soldiers and to those who are sim
cerely moved to take the time to horror

country Many of the games and out
door pastimes which are now INDUCED
in would necessarily have TO be aban-
dOned
