MILITIA APPROPRIATION.
Iowa National Guard Will Get $4,000
More Annually.


Iowa National guards will be sup
piled with rifle ranges for every COM
pany and big ranges for every regi-
ment, and equipment double that
which it now has, according to Adult
ant General Thrift or Des Moines.
The national appropriation calls for
100000 for militia, wnere hereto
fore but $1,0OO,00O was appropriated.
1t means that the Iowa National Guard
will get about $4,000 more annually
for maintenance than heretofore.
1t is likely that the regimental
range for the Fifty-fifth regiment will
be located near Des Moines, that II
may be easily accessible to the two
militia companies in this city and the
others near by. The range requires
a level tract Of land about 200 feet
wide and 1000 yards long. 1t is pro-
bable that long time leases will be
sought to meadow land for the regi-
ment ranges with option Of purchase
later. The big appropriation will be
made available in July and will ac-
cordingly be of service to the Iowa
militia this year.

PORTLAND CEMENT.

The use of cement runs back to an.
tiquity. There is no exact known
date when mankind first used calcined
limestone in connection with masonry.
1t is known to have been used ancient
ly by the Chaldeans, Egyptians,
Greeks and Romans. The most an
cient form of cement was simply burnt
limestone, more or less pure, used
very much as we use ordinary lime at
the present time. The Romans were
the first to adulterate lime by adding
certain clay soils and slate for the pur-
pose of making cement Of a hydraul.
ic nature, i. e., one which would set
or harden under water. Pliny, who
lived in the first century B. c., de-
scribes the method of modifying Or
binary burnt limestone and converting
it into form of hydraulic cement.
1t was anciently believed that the
best cement was made from the hard
est rock, and this opinion was not
modified from the time of the Romans
down to the eighteenth century. How
ever, John Smeaton, the man who
built the second Eddystone lighthouse,
in the course of examining the various
hydraulic cements for use In the foun-
dalton and masonry, made the import
ant discovery that the quality of n.y.
draulic cement depends upon the
amount of clay in the limestone. This
is conceded as the most important dis
covery in the art In nearly twenty
centuries. ..
f On the island of Portland in the
south Of England there are certain
quarries of limestone which have been
worked for many years, anciently pro-
ducing building stone. In 1924 an
Englishman named Joseph Aspdin, OF
Leeds, patented a process for mixing
and burning lime and clay. The pro-
duct looked so much like the Portland
limestone that he called it Portland
cement" from which the commonly
known name given to nearly all kinds
of hydraulic cement was derived.
From Aspdin's time to 1880 many mills
were erected in England and on the
continent for making Portland cement,
which was mostly poor stun and Of
limited use. .r
The first Portland cement made in
the United States was made by the
Copley Cement Company, Copley, Pa,
in 1875; their annual rate of produo-
ton was 1000 barrels.
The growth of Portland cement MAX
ing in the United States has been rap
i'd. In 1875 the annual production was
1000 barrels per year; In 1890 (ifteen
years later) 1t was 335,500 barrels:
in 1900, S,4S2,020 barrels; and in 1908
it was 22,342,973 barrels.

MEAT INSPECTION BILL

A st. Louis Globe-Democrat: Yester-
day saw another exhibition in Wash
ington of the politics that does things
The president and the house commit
tee on agriculture reached an agree
ment on the meat-inspction bill. On
all points there is complete accord.
Each side gave way on some matters
of detail. Neither side can claim a
victory over the other Some of the
features of the bill which passed the
senate week ago will be incorporate
ed in the house measure. A few OF
the details of the house bill, which
varies from that Of the senate, will
doubtless stand. No one need fear
about the ultimate fate of the bill,
which is to be modified in accordance
with the agreement just reached. The
house has already passed it. The con-
ference committee will now get hold
of it, will knock out the Emergencies
between the two chambers, each
chamber will accept the committees
work, and the president will put his
signature to it,
This is what the country wants.
The conflicting claims of the house
and senate to decisively shape legisla,
ton which can originate in either
branch have not the slightest interest
for the people. What the country
wants is the right sort of legislation,
regardless of the chamber in which il
starts. The democrats thought there
was an irrepressible conflict between
Roosevelt and Beveridge on one side
and Cannon and Wadsworth on the
other on beef inspection. And the
packers, who were against all sorts OF
legislation, tried to widen the breach
between the two eiements. Party
reasons melted the democrats hope
Financial reasons prompted the pack
ers' desire to see the conflict continue
Both interests are defeated. An in
spection bill will De passed in the
shaping of which the democrats will
have no hand. Although there is nc
politics in this issue, the democrats
would quickly inject politics into it il
the republican congress should either
fail to pass an inspection bill, OF
should, in passing it, have to call In
democratic aid to enable one republi
can element to triumph over another
This will be a republican measure

abling the Public Health and Marine
Hospital Service to take the lead in
eliminating the yellow fever danger
from the southern states because the
state governments had failed to ac-
complish the proper sort of results in
the desired direction. Scientists as
sert that 1t is entirely possible to
maintain practically open communica-
ton with Central and South America
the year round without bringing in
lection into the ports OF the United
States, though a world of preliminary
work will have to be done in the mat
ter of mosquito destruction and gen.
eral sanitation before that day comes.
From federal quarantine to huge
federal appropriation for improvement
of internal waterways is long step,
but the tendency is in that direction,
and it will come eventually, bringing
with it a practical solution of railroad
rate questions at least in so far as the
Mississippi Valley is concerned.
Through channel Improvement and the
construction Of locks and dams, all the
year water transportation can be CIV
en- the farm products Of the north and
west, and the iron, steel, coal and
manufactured goods or the east to tide
water at New Orleans for tranship-
ment to all the countries of the civil,
lied world. In this way millions OF
dollars annually would be saved to the
people of the valley states as far east
as Pittsburg and as far north and west
as the many streams emptyIng into
the Mississippi river reach, thus ben.
citing the commerce of the entire ma
ton. Chicago wants deep water to
the Gulf. The Kansas farmer, the
Pennsylvania iron moulder, the mar
BILE quarry man of East Tennessee, and
the coal miner of Alabama and West
Virginia want the same thing. The
fortune of one really rich railroad
magnate of New York would give 20
100000 people their desire. Before
many years shall have passed this de.
sire will become powerful public de.
mand, and the federal congress will
most probably begin to appropriate
the sums necessary to give cheap wat.
er transportation from the heart OF
the nation, via New Orleans and the
Panama canal to the rich and as yet
undeveloped markets of the thickly
populated countries of the far East
in this way affording the high waged
people of the United States a tangible
advantage over the low waged people
of Europe whose ships, having a great
er distance to travel, must do so al
greater expense.

IOWA REPUBLICANS AND THE
TARIFF,

st. Louis G.obe-Democrat: Some of
the republicans of Iowa seem to be
exceptionally anxious to go into gen.
eral revision of the Dingley tariff,
though their purposes, when asked
for in detail, are indefinite. They
give much comfort to the democratic
party, which result is not in line with
the advancement of republicanism. In
it's time the republican party has fire.
quently revised the tariff, adapting 1t
to the changing needs of the govern
ment, and also preserving the princt-
pie that protects American wages and
industry. There is nothing immuta-
BILE in tariff schedule, nor in internal
revenue taxation. During the great
coal strike a few years ago the duty
on coal importations was suspended
for a time. 1t made no difference ex-
cept that the price of cargoes OF coal
sent to the United States was marked
up. No relief to American consumers
came from that source. Recently the
tax was removed from denatureo al
cohol. Standing pat does not mean
immoyability.
The Dingley tariff this year brought
the country a greater revenue than
ever before, and the fiscal year that
ends June 80 will also exceed any 9TH
er in foreign commerce. A treasury
surplus is reported for the year. All
goes well with the present tariff as
far as the affairs of the government

Davis, past department commander OF

alone was 391, as compared to 129 in
the state during the year 1901. In
1901 there were 15,440 members OF

The Iowa State Fair, which has
become money making institution,
has already commenced its campaign
for free advertising rom all the pa
pers of the state. We wonder how
long the newspapermen of Iowa are
going to be chumps enough to boost
the Fair and help upbuild Des Moines,
for a non-transferable ticket to the
Fair, grudgingly given by those in
charge. The Iowa State Fair ought to
pay for its advertising just the same
as the home merchant is expected to
do, and if any difference it ought to
pay more.

READY RESPONSES.

A postmaster general or some one
in his Office in Washington once wrote
to the postmaster of some little sta
ton on the Tombigbee river: you
will please inform this department
how far the Tombigbee river runs up"
to which the postmaster answered:
81 have the honor to inform the de-
partment that the Tombigbee river
don't run up at all; it runs down." In
due course of mail came another COM
munication: "On receipt of this letter
your appointment as postmaster will
cease. Mr.. - has been appointed
your successor" To which went the
following reply: "The receipts of this
office during the last year have been
S4.37, and the Office rent more than
double that sum; please to kindly in
struct my successor to pay me the

are concerned. American wages are
better than those in any other country
American industries are at the height
of prosperity. Why, then, a call
among the republicans of Iowa, or OF
any state, for a ripping UP Of the tar
iff? The democrats are for free trade.
Any Iowan with that objective is not
a republican. The whole history or
the party is protective. 1t offers no
encouragement to the idea that it will
ever cease to be protective. The re-
publicans of Iowa are the men who
stand by the avowed policies Of the
party. Those who can not be thus
classified are engaged in a movement
on their own responsibility.
