WHEN DID LAFE YOUNG LIEF

Readers of the Des Moines Capital
are familiar with the shameless Wifi
cation, abuse and misrepresentation of
the governor which has been the main
business of the news and editorial de-
partments Of that sheet during this
campaign. Mr.. Young has rallied like
ffslrwoman. His reporters have fol-
lowed the governor to garble his Ian
guage and misrepresemt the situation
generally. Reproduction is given be-
low to an editorial article which APP
peared in the Des Moines Capital Of
Feb. IA, 1901. 1t is given for purposes
of comparison:
After protracted consultation with
his friends, Hon. A. B. Cummins, Of
Des Moines, has authorized the an
nouncement of his candidacy for gov
ernor. The people of Iowa know Mr.
Cummins and esteem him highly. He
is an able lawyer, a man of the highest
personal character, and If he is chosen
governor of Iowa he will become a ma
tional figure. Having been a member
"
he is already known in nearly every
state in the union to the political lead
ers. During the late presidential
campaign he was invited TO take the
stump under the auspices of the ma
tional committee, but was unable to do
so to any extent on account OF his.
pressing private business. While Mr..
Cummins' standing in the state is
strong with all classes, he is especially
admired by the young men and the
newer men in politics. That he will be
a strong candidate nobody will deny.
His old friends will be with him, and
he will attract many new ones. He
is candidate upon his merits without
regard to any previous campaigns, and
especially regardless of faction. He
will receive the earnest support of the
people of Des Moines practically re-
gardless of party. I'm order that it
might not be charged that he had still
some designs on a seat in the United
States senate he announces that in no
case will he be a candidate for the
senate against Senators Allison or Dol
liver. This is the manly thing to do,
and Cummins can always be relied up
on to act in politics as he acts in pri-
vate life on the lines of personal hon
or. The Capital has had so much to
say in behalf of Mr.. Cummins during
the past four years that further eu-
logy is unnecessary. If he shall be
chosen to head the republican ticket he
will be a dauntless and courageous
leNder. If chosen governor he will dis
charge every duty with the strictest
regard for the public welfare. His
campaign will grow from the start and
will be characterized by intense en-
thusiasn.
Now, when did LATE Young lie?

will not be able to dispose of his seat
to a copper Spectator in return for
certain business advantages.
SO that senator from New Jer-
sey will be able to do his share to-
wards regulating the insurance bust
ness.
So that senator from Ohio will not
have to be the implacable foe of rail-
road legislation in order to hold his
position.
So that a senator from Nebraska
will not be unduly biased when 1t
comes to national bank legislation.
SO that the occupant of senate
seat from Michigan will be able to
think on the Arizona New Mexico
question without saying: How will
this affect my property out there?"
These are a few reasons. There are
over a dozen more. And that comes
dangerously near being a majority of
the body of men who are supposed to
exercise a wise, temperate. and just
supervision over the legislation Of this
country.

FROST ON july 4.


"Ye-es, it's mighty cold for this time

bad luck for the hucksters with their

East Dubuque nowadays-well as L
was sayin'. we left Dunleith on the
afternoon of the third, to so to Has

for a big Fourth O. July celebration.
We didn't get no more than half way
along the road when night come on.

but we didn't quite like to trust EN-

so we spent the night in the open.
And If you'll believe it, the next NOR
min we woke up with a feelin' as if all

combinations of organized wealth and
special interests have had an overhaul
ancing control in state and national
legislation"
/ Des Moines Capital Jan. 9, 1901:
THE unconcerned people Will have to
be walked on little harder and lit

The Davenport Democrat points out
that "all the speeches that all the can

cuRFew FOR THE PUBLIC DANCE.
Omaha is studying the public dan,

Omaha is studying the public dance
as criminal problem. One murderous
affray has succeeded another at these
gatherings, until the newspapers and
police force of the city are studying
some means of checking; the evil in
price of admission is a certificate of
character. Pointing out that most of
the ARRAYS occur after midnight the
chief of police suggests midnight clos
ing. The newspapers suggest stricter
police supervision.
The suggestion to ring curfew on
the public dance is a good one. The
an-inght dance, like the all-night sa-
loon, is magnet for tough citizens and
people of bad character. Any amuse-
ment that holds after midnight is de-
generative. Decency shuns public
places after IL o'clock 1t works or
goes home to bed. Ano when decency
leaves the streets and public places,
the rounder, the drunl,ard and the
drab play the star parts. Murder and
riot are natural consequences where
vicious men and bad women gather
Dancing is a form of amusement legit-
innate enough in itself, but many pub
lie dance halls in the larger cities are
simply vestibules of vice and recruit
ing stations for iniquit!- and shame. An
occasional murder is not the worst
feature of this class of public dances.
Any place where legitimate amuse-
ment is prostituted into the office of
pander; that brings together the muir
derous and the vicious is fit and
proper object not only for police SUI
pervision, but for suppression. We
have fallen into an impression that
amusements are not to be interfered
with and the attitude of peace officers
toward "amusements" that border on
tho vicious has taken on complais-
ance that calls for change.

WHAT THEY DO IN IOWA.

John Herriott, in July, 1900: 'Hav-
ing vast resources and an army of
shrewd and skilled men at their com
lmand, railroads can exert a trelnen-
sdour influence in primaries, conven-
lions and elections. They get out can
tdidates for public office and promote
their candidacy with vigor and marked
efficiency. 1t is very common
belief that candidates for the chief ex-
ecutivc office of the state are success
full or not according to the promises
they may make the managers of the
political railroads regarding their as
sessments for taxation. There is more
truth than fiction in the popular be-
lief"

Invention for the Opera.

II hear of a fine new invention" said
patent office man. 1T is kind of
magic lantern thing for opera. AS the
singer sings. the words of the song are
thrown on screen above their heads.
This invention ought to succeed.
1t is annoying al the opera never to
know what the songs are about. The
only remedy heretofore has been the
libretto, but you don't care for his
remedy because reading the libretto,
YOU lose the action on the stage.
But the words thrown on Il screen
would allow you to follow the songs
and at the same time miss none of the
stage pictures.
