A Woman's View OF the
Electric Railroad Tax.

Editor st. Tammany FARMER:
Dear 6ir-l am . woman, therefore
not supposed to have much sense, and
certainly not to vote; but ! want to
protest loud and long against any taxa
tion for m electric railroad from Gov
ington to Vaudeville, or any other
place.
1t is generally the fact that where
private capital 10 invested IN such IN
enterprise it gives some sort OF . bonus
for right of way, ETC.; but here Is q
different state OF things: A gentleman
ana his associates, very estimable gen.
tlemen, I have NO doubt, come to You
and me and say: Please tax yourselves,
my dear people to help US to invest our
money to build an electric railroad, !,
along which We have already bought up
as much Of the property as We could.
You can ride on the road IL you ray for
it. We think 1t will make your property
more valuable (7). Anyway. II the rail.
TOAD Is not . success, We Will not lose
to help Us.
NJ. Mr.. Editor; there arc too many
things much more necessary 10 do for
our health and happiness right here In
Covington, for which we should tax
ourselves, IL We are willing to be taxed
any more. Give US q better place for
our schoolhouse, and lighter aud cooler
rooms. SO that our CHILDREN will not
suffer In health and eyesight; clean up
our streets, no that dreaded scourge Of
all small places, typhoid, will not pros
trsts Or carry of our young people;
Tax Us In moderation, aud l, for one,
will gladly pay 1t, to protect rs from
hre, for sewerage, for better water sup
ply; but do let Nj. and his
Company run their own little apple cart
OF = railroad-build 1t or not-but with
their own money. But now to drop
this jestinG msnner and come down to
serious talk. You women Of Covington
who own property; who are mothers;
you men who are fathers; who love and
value your children. their health. hap
pinees and future welfsre-be1Ore you
vote for this tax, STOP and think. Are
there not some things right here In
our own pretty little town Of Covtngton
We need much, mnch more, that are Of
greater Vital Importance than an elec-
tic rosd 20 Vaudeville?

The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-02-01

There is a serfdom in politics as
we'll as in anything else. The ladder
is a very necessary article at times
but one always plants his feet on it..
The effort of the American people to-
day is to throw off this serfdom and
we hope the time will come when
every legislator will be judged and
elected by this standard that he shall
be true to the people.
Perhaps we will not be given credit
for entire impartiality, but we hon
estly believe that the people of this dis
trict have found such nam in Judge
Conner. Let us confess that in 189 Z
we returned toDenison much more init
mate with other republican leaders
than with Judge Conner. Gradually
the man grew on us; we found that
he did not think he knew it all; we
found that he was man you could
work with, not under. During all
the period Of close relationship and
friendship he has never attempted to
dictate stroke of the pen of that
which has been published in the Re-
view, nor tried to direct its policy.
There has never been time that we
have known him to stoop to dirty
politics or personalities; in fact We
have known him to put aside the
temptation to revenge that few mer
could have resisted.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-02-01

He has not attempted to enter with
frantic zeal into factionalism and
strife. He has judged men on their
individual merits and he has done
much in this district to promote har-
mony and better feeling. Some day
when the bitterness of factionalism
shall have passed, men will be still
better able to judge of the good work
he has done in this direction. His
ambition is not to engage the public
eye by grand stand plays for popular
ity, but to be an earnest, hard
working, honest representative OF all
the people of this district, and to re-
main true to the principles of the re-
publican party. We who rejoice that
thus far the President has been up
held by the Congress, should not for
get that Judge Conner was one of
those who helped to do it, and that he
did it as matter Of course, without
boasting or without bombast and with
out the necessity of any pounding"
to "bring him into line.''
Judge Conner is one of the few
men in politics and we have known
by far too many politicians, whose
gratitude is not "lively sense of
favors yet to come. /" He trusts his
friends and they trust him, and that is
perhaps one of the great secrets of
his success. He has proper self-re-
spect, without that over-weening ego
tism which has ruined the political
prospects of many really clever men.
He brags neither of his wealth, nor
his brilliancy, nor his oratory, a fact
that is particularly grateful to those
who have been compelled to listen to
the self-laudation of others, who by
coarse and crude self flattery discount
the credit that might otherwise be
given them. He is fortunately above
that hollow effusiveness and forced
geniality by which so many seek popu-
lafity with "the masses. He will
be your friend, he will do much more
for you than the professional hand
shaker, but, thank goodness he will
not slobber. The mutations of poll
tics and life are many, Judge Conner
may have his defeats as we'll as his
victories, so mny we all, but how
ever, we may be misjudged as a
postmaster-ed editor, or as political
pencil pusher as we believe it was
once cleverly put, we have done NO
more than to give our honest esti-
mate of the man, man whose friend
ship we value more highly, than any
political or personal favors he has
been able to bestow.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-02-01

There is no use in denying that the
British government responds much
more quickly to public opinion than
does our own boosted government of
the people. An election has just been
held in which the liberals and labor
ties have gained a sweeping victory
and it will be but few weeks before
the pciictics of these parties can be
carried into effect, under ministry
entirely in sympathy with their aims.
Under our rather clumsy system, rep
resentatives elected in November take
their seats in March but do not con-
vene for business until december or
thirteen months after their election.
Even then the will of the people may
be thwarted by an adverse Senate or
an adverse administration. Again we
90 not regard our constitution as an
unmixed blessing. The English have
no constitution, Whatever their par
Lament says goes, without fear that
a Supreme court will sit back and call
it unconstitutional. 1t is we'll not to
be too vain in our patriotism. We
have considerable to learn from other
countries.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-02-01

architect who honestly presents plans
ard specifications which come within
the amount originally appropriated
has no show with the architect who
presents pretty picture the reproduce
ton of which in stone and iron would
cost so per cent more than the amount
first named.
Despite the structures which the
Review has passed upon the board in
this and other matters, it desires to
say that it doubts if any other five
men chosen from the same vocatlons
would have done any better. There is
not member of the board who ever
had the superintendency of $4,000
structure, let alone one that will cost
$3.50, 000 This is not the fault of the
members, however, and the Review
wishes to be fair enough to give them
credit for having proceeded thus far
without any suspicion that any of the
money has stuck to their fingers or
that they have not tried to do their
best.

Last week some sensational reporter
sent an item to the Register and Lea
der that Mr.. Chas. K. Meyers of Ma
son City had had an apopletic stroke.
Naturally the editor was greatly
shocked by this news of his brothers
illness and it was not until the tele-
phone assured him that the apoplectic
stroke was nothing more than a brief
faint caused by indigestion that his
anxiety was relieved. While we APP
preciate the value of printing news
while it is news yet we can but Sc
verely censure the pitiful penny-a-liner
who sent the fake dispatch. 20 IL.
