ley primary bill he will go after the
provisions of the measure rather than
the principle involved in it. He is
conceded to be one of the leading law
yers of the senate and his words car
ry weight. He is one of the senators
who carefully study the bills they
make speeches about and his exposi-
ton of the states certification, the pri-
mary and other pending bills has been
complete and thorough. There is a
temptation in the senate to make
speeches which are glittering in gener-
alities. Senator COPYRIGHT does not
make that kind, usually.
No Opposition to Lacey.
Politics really absorbs more atten-

tional board Of regents bill
The last development of a political
character is to the effect that Con-

Auditor of State Carroll and Senator
S. H. Harper have declared positively
and definitely that they will not con-
slider it and the understanding in po-
litical circles is that no further at
tempt will be made by the opposition
to prevent Congressman Lacey having
denomination without a contest.
1t also is certain that Congressman
Hull will have no opposition for con-
gress in this district unless he asks
for it. His disposition is not to or
ganize fight against Cummins in the
district; that means that Cummins
has no fight against him and so far
as Cummins and his friends are con-
cerned the captain can go back to con-
gress without contest. His troubles
arise from his own crowd George L.
Dobson is candidate, now, and G. C.
Dowell has been figuring on being a
candidate. But it is believed that the
latter will not enter the race and the
friends of Captain Hull say that they
will pay no attention to Dobson.
The talk which was common and
which has prevailed during this SEES

Cousins would have opposition has
ceased and it is thought now that no
candidate will appear. Senator w. P.

is prevalent that G. A. Carpenter, of
Columbus Junction. will be the first
district candidate for congress unless
he is able to induce Senator Young, Of
Washington county, to take it and
that the eighth district situation is
mixed. The campaign there, is not
fairly started yet. But there is poll
tics to burn in Page county where
friends of Senator Lewis seem to be
on the verge of successfully disposing
of the candidacy of George Bogart.
That situation is curious in that the
campaign as it was started was begun
without knowledge or consent as to
the methods, from Senator Lewis.

Aimed at Cheats.
The penalties of the bill are aimed
at cheats. That which is forbidden is
the sale of goods under false pretenses
or the sale of poisonous articles as
good food No honest dealer need fear
any provision in the bill. Legitimate
trade should welcome its enactment
into law Only those wishing to de-
ceive the public will object to it's pro-
visions. 1t simply requires honesty
OF labelling and the exclusion of injuri-
GUS added products. He who wishes
to sell fourteen ounces as a pound or
to sell cheap trade article with a
high grade label at the price of the lat
ter quality will denounce the bill as
an invasion of the rights of trade, as
an interference with the freedom of
commerce, as an outrage upon the
property rights of men. In the COM
petion of modern business life it be-
comes necessary to give some protec-
ton to the legitimate manufacturer
and dealer as against his dishonest
and unscrupulous1 rival who fairly COM
petes with limitations and spurious ar
ticles of poor Quality.
