AN uNsAvoRY COMPARISON.

A democrats view Of the methods
expressed in an interview which APP
peared in the Des Moines Register
and Leader:
Il lost small sum of money on the
result of the Black Hawk county con-
vention," said j. w. Sullivan, of Wat
erloo, one of the leading democrats of
Iowa, Monday. Il was willing to wager
five that after the Perkins people got
the Cummins outfit sewed in a sack
with both ends tied and half gallon
of chloroform in the sack with them,
they would take the delegation. But
didn't count on them losing their
nerve. Did you ever witness thing
like that before? They had the whole
business in their hands and We're
afraid to walk off with it. Imagine
a man with black mask and two
cannon tied to him, wrapping up ST.
900 worth of silverware in a small
bundle, carefully tying the ends and
getting safely out on the front steps
of dark night with his loot, without
a sound to disturb the quiet of the
night or an indication that the sleep
ing household was aware of his dep
relation and then suddenly deciding
to leave the plumber. Such u man
would be fit for the insane asylum if
thieves sat on the insane commits
sion.
But here were the Perkins fellows
with the whole thing in their posses
sion. They took the temporary organ
izatiou without murmur from the
Cummins people--which was as
strange in its way as the other deal
and had the twenty seven delegates

TAKE YOUR CHOICE.

Two citizens Of Chickasaw county,
Edison Sewell ard A. H. Markell, have
achieved what decent men term MOTOR
iety, and Ed Hunter calls fame. These
are the two instructed delegates to
the Chickasaw county convention who
treacherously and deliberately disre-
garding the instructions of the town
ship caucus that had honored them
by the narrowest margin, threw the
county to Perkins. In the flush OF
victory achieved thru their dishonor
and surrounded by the gang of pro-
curers whose bidding they had fol-
lowed, these two mer felt like heroes.
However. men do not live at county
conventions, but at home. These men
had to go home to their neighbors un-
accompanied by the gang that had
debauched them. This was their well

nay MEETS the MONEY.

II erinds publicist to give a man
Ike Chancellor Day the advertising
which necessarily follows newspaper
discussion but Day has pointed out
30 distinctly the whole moral problem
involved in tainted" money that the
nuhlic is entitled to the lesson even
tho the advertising is begrudged ITO
an extreme.
Chancellor Day is the executive chief
OF Syracuse University. Like all other
universities Syracuse University needs
money. 1t makes very little difference
whether Syracuse University looks to
the benefactions of inulti-millionaires
or to state Legislature honeycombed
with the influence of syndicated mill
ions, Chancellor Day has announced
to the world that he Is proud to be-
come the special champion and de-
fender of Standard Oil iniquities. A
packing house report which would
cause a pie counter boarder to kick
over the table when he read it merely
moves DR.. Day to remark that this
Is scandal-mongering age. Accord
Ing to his standards the millionaires
who earned dividends by shoveling
unspeakable filth into sausages, the
railroad officials who took stock in
coal companies on the side for their
influence in keeping cars away from
competitors, or the oil magnates who
bribe railroad Officials for rebates
and spy work which shall destroy COM
peting oil refineries, according to his
standards these men would make good
front pew Christians.
Chancellor Day has answered the
question as to whether a college can
accept money which may have been
gained by un-t,hristian methods. If
the money is now lawfully possessed
by the w0uld-be benefactor there is
no reason why it, should not atone for
It's past record in giving assistance to
the great work of education unless the

any way, the freedom of its teachings

CURED millions to give. Money makes
great work in education possible. In
every state in the union from three to
a dozen college commencement gather

of their school, but this same money
