CARRIE NATIONS MESSAGE.

Another outbreak has come from
Carrie Nation. This one is an attack
upon Theodore Roosevelt, whom she
charges as being responsible for crime,
pauperism and degradation. She says
that he has large class of friends
who will stay with him to the last,
that they are the brewers, distillers
and saloon men. She makes further
attack and adds other charges, but
they are immaterial, as no one in par.
ticular pays any attention to Carrie
except as joke.
The instance simply calls to mind
some Of the charges of the past made
by people of higher standing and PEG.
pie of more influence and eloquence
than Carrie Nation. Six years ago
Miss Eva Shontz was going up and
down this country and with all the
eloquence at her command, which is
not little, was making the same and
worse charges against William McKin
ley. In the same manner that the vel
low journals pictured him as the tool
of Mark Hanna and the trusts, she
pictured him to her numerous audi
ences as the tool of the brewers, and

UNCLE JoE'S A WINNER.

New York Evening Post-Senator
Cullom, of Illinois, is preparing to
exert all his influence to secure the
presidency for his young friend, Joe
Cannon, In 1908. "a resolution for
Cannon he says, will go through
(the state convention) like creased
lightning. if he doesn't stop 1t him
self" Mr.. Cullom, who was sturdy
youngster of when Mr.. Cannon was
standing pat in his cradle, naturally
feels an interest in his protege. How
ever, all booming of Cannon-the fall
of the words cannot be helped-harks
back to that extraordinary afternoon
in the spring of 1904, when William
Alden Smith~half seriously, named the
speaker for the presidency, and his
colleagues gave such demonstration
of loyalty and enthusiasm as the house
had hardly seen in generation. He
has the winning qualities, and 1t is
already decided that he is to be the
mainstay and dependence Of this year.
congressional campaign. We have
elected one president who was within
four years of the age Mr.. Cannon will
have attained in 1908. The other
party has nominated vice presiden.
tial candidate nine years older But
If Uncle Joe" were hundred and
one he would still occupy a unique
place-a standpatter. who can put his
views into practice without engaging
the revisionist republicans, an implac
able foe of the senate, who finds a
senator the chief sponsor Of his cause

when he throttles their legislative

PROGRESS TOWARD PEACE

What can we do to have peace?
was the question that received the at
tention of the representatives of the
great nations assembled in conference
in the Interparliamentary Union and
the Pan-American congress. Several
years ago when the first congress at
The Hague was held there was some
talk of the hopelessness of the cause,
as at that time and afterward wars
were in progress among several ma
tions. There was our own difficulty
with Spain, there was the war in South
Africa, there was the trouble in the
Philippines, there was the uprising In
China, all followed by the bloody war
between Russia and Japan.
While all of those things are mat
tiers of history, it is as much a matter
of record that there has been a dis
tinct movement for peace among the
civilized nations of the globe. Secre-
tary Root, who addressed large gath
ering at Montivideo, Uruguay, Satur-
day said:
"The friendship for your country
that we from the north have, is a
friendship that imperils no interest Of
Europe; it is friendship that springs
from desire to promote the common
welfare of mankind by evidencing the
rule of order, of justice, Of humanity
and of Christianity which makes for
the prosperity and happiness of all
mankind.
"It is not as the messenger Of strife
that come to you, but am here as an
advocate of United States friendship
and peace"
| When he says he comes as an alvo
cate of the United States friendship
and peace they know that 1t is no false
hope that he is holding out, for the
United States Is the leader in the
peace movement. 1t may not have
been the first to propose it, but it has
led in the fulfillment Of 1t inasmuch
as it has been fulfilled. Bringing Its
own interior strife to an end 1t settled
on a firm foundation ready for an ere
of progress that has been unprecedent
ed. 1t bothered itself little about the
size of the armies and navies of the
other nations, getting along for years
with less than what should have beer
maintained. 1t held none of the jeal
ousies that we're to be observed in the
European countries and 1t had no en-
tangling alliances that were liable tt
throw it into turmoil and trouble.
The example has had It's influence

for progress and there can be no pro
gress among them If the best Of theil

HAMILToN,s NOMINATION

The old war horse of many battles
and almost as many parties was turn
ed down In the democratic congress-
lonal convention in Ottumwa for a
younger man. Daniel w. Hamilton Of
Stgourney will make the race, in the
Sixth district instead of General James
B. Weaver, who, 1t was believed until
a day or two ago would be the nom
inee.
1t is presumed that the democrats
have chosen one whom they consider
best able to make the fight against
Congressman John F. Lacey, who was
given the unanimous nomination by
the republicans. Hamilton came into
prominence as temporary chairman of
the democratic state convention and
since that time has been pushed as q
candidate for this nomination. He is
a lawyer and while previous to this
time had not achieved prominence. he
has been leader among Keokuk
county democrats.
Mr.. Hamilton not having ever before
made race in this district little is
known of his methods of campaigning
but 1t is presumed that he will make
an effort to keep it on the same high
level that will be fixed by Major Lacey
If the speech Of John W. Lewis as
temporary chairman is the real key
note of the democratic campaign ii
will be. He intimates that they look
for victory not in any misconduct OF
Major Lacey as congressman from the
Sixth district, but because of the diff
ferences among the republicans in the
state of Iowa. He admits that there
is no hope of electing democratic
congressman without a large number
of republican votes.
He thus places the hope Of Mr.. Ham
1lton's success in the hands Of the re
publicans and not in those of his owr
party.

BISHOP DENIES Ii.

After waiting several days for the
storm to subside, but In vain, Bishop
Lawrence of Massachusetts felt called
upon to deny any connection with or
knowledge of the endless chain OF
PRAYER" AS much was to have been
expected. No one who knows anything
of men and the tendencies of times
would attempt to perpetrate such
thing as that upon the public, II he
had the real interests of his religion
in view.
The bishop was flooded with com
munications as soon as the letter was
made public with the statement that
Bishop Lawrence had written the
prayer and started 1t. The principal
objection to the endless chain letter
is the assurance of the visitation OF
some dire calamity If it Is not sent on
to nine other persons. Many weak
minded persons have been frightened
by this and one woman confesses that
she was sick with fear that something
would happen to herself or famlnly
and so she secretly wrote the nine
letters in splitter Of the advice OF her
husband not to do 1t.
The manner in which the stronger
in mind have become indignant about
1t is indicative of the change of atti
tude toward such things. 1t was for
merly a common thing for people to
be frightened into worship of certain
kinds. Some do that kind Of preaching
today, but whether it is progressive OF
backward step, people are attract
ed by it, They are looking for q mes
sage Of love and not of hate and re
venge. And it can hardly be shown
that the world has grown worse or the
influence of religion less under this
view of Christian teachings.

SID ELICIT S.
SIGNATURES Of Future.

A small East Side urchin in New
York found cigar butt in the gutter,
and lacking a match to set it going,
went into tobacco shop to beg for
one.
"Say, Mister, will you give me q
match?"
"No, won't. We don't give matches
away here, we sell en-"
damage?"
"Chuck one over" The kid felt
round in his pockets, finally locating a
single copper down deep in his trous-
ers. He took match, lit his inch Of
Havana, and after getting it going in
good shape, handed the box across the
counter, and administered this lordly
rebuke to the astonished proprietor:
Say, Mister, put that box up there
on yer shelf, an if anuther gentl-mun
comes in here an strikes yer for er
match, just give him one out'en my
box, see So long.
Everybody Saw 1t.
Some years ago "Tom" Taggart, of
the democratic no.ional committee,
had occasion to write to an active pc.
litical worker in q distant part of In.
diana, giving Linn timely directions con
corning the campaign then in progress,
Mr.. Taggart's typewriter was absent
SO he penned the letter in person,
though well aware that his chirography
belongs to the Horace Greeley school
He wrote carefully on this occasion
however, it being very important
communication, and thought there
woul- be no difficulty. "A week later
his correspondent was in Indianapolis
and called.
did you get my letter? Could you
read it," was Mr.. Taggart's greeting
81 got 1t all right replied the man
''and didn't have any trouble with any
of it except the postscript. That
stuck me- Showed it to everybody In
town-same result: they all read the
letter, but fell down on the postscript
The man drew the letter from his
pocket, and handed 1t to Mr.. Taggart
who gave it one quick glance.
Great guns, gasped Tom, t'the post
script says, Don't let anybody see this
letter."
